A slow phone.

20120303a

I really love my smart phone.

It’s not an iPhone, nor is it a pricey Samsung, but a very modest Motorola 525 that does everything I need. I can make calls, surf the web from almost anywhere, and stay in contact with both home and personal contacts when on the move. Not to mention some of the exciting games that help eat up those extra minutes of me waiting around for people who always turn up late.

As of late, my phone has started slowing down, to the point where it would take 2 or 3 seconds to even pick up a call. I’ve used different apps to try and speed it up, but nothing was working. I thought it may have been a virus, but my virus scanner hadn’t picked up on anything unusual.

So I begun the task of removing apps one at a time to see which one was the culprit. Can you guess which one it was?

My anti-virus app.

Yes, the one app that is suppose to prevent bad apps from being on the phone and slowing it down was the one app that was on my phone slowing it down.

Oh, the irony!

Anyway, my phone is back to normal and working at the lightning speed I have missed for the passed few weeks.
