        Hello Mike.

        Usually, poor performance can be solved by a firmware update. I'm guessing you're handset is running on an older version of Android, possibly 2.2 froyo or even 2.1 eclair.
        It depends on what country you're in and whether you phone is locked to a particular network for availability of a firmware update. I know some customers in the USA are having a hard time getting their phones updated to 2.2 froyo. If that is the case for you then you should consider flashing your phone using Odin and the latest firmware for your region available from samfirmware.com.

        Cheers.

        Ray

                        I use an app called Wifi File explorer where you can access everything on your phone on your PC without plugging in the cable.

                        Works GREAT!!!!!!!!!

                          (I also noticed at tr that the HTC desire update to GB comes with a disclaimer saying they aren't responsible if it goes wrong).

                            No offence mate, but that article is dated 16 May - almost 3 months ago.

                            The new version of Kies has rolled out since then and is STILL - how can I put this nicely? - Nope, can't think of anything nice!
                            It STILL doesn't work.

                              Thanks for the update. I'm very interested in trying out JVR now mainly for the battery performance and Touchwiz 3.

                              I'll give it a go a bit later as I'm just off out for the day.

                              All the best.

                                    I've been playing with the TouchWiz 3 interface which is included in XXJVR.
                                    Early days yet, but I have found two interesting things so far.
                                    1) Don't like the four icons at the bottom of your screen? Wish you could change them to ones you prefer? Now you can. Touch Applications, then the left soft button, and then Edit. Now you can drag a shortcut onto one of the first three icons on the bottom bar to change it. Then choose Save. You can't change the Applications icon though (obviously).
                                    2) Accounts and Sync. If you click on Add Accountyou now have Facebook, Twitter, and My Space options. I haven't bothered with them yet, but I guess you can integrate them into one account if you wish.

                                      Update on I9000XXJVR firmware.
                                      I unplugged my charger at 6am yesterday and the battery widget I use (which has always proved pretty accurate) showed the battery at 98%. I used the phone as normal and at 7am this morning the battery level was at 89%, which is surprisingly good.
                                      I would point out though that this was achieved by the following:
                                      1)3G OFF
                                      2)WiFi OFF
                                      3)Background Data OFF
                                      4)Live Wallpaper OFF.
                                      My motto is - If you don't use it, lose it.
                                      I NEVER use 3G because I've never found a use for it, and anyway the 3G signal is awful where I live (Essex). I only use WiFi at home, and then not very much. Live wallpaper? What's the point, you only see it for a few seconds when you unlock the phone. Background data - who wants their phone sending out data behind their back? I only turn it on when I want to use WiFI, and then turn it off again.
