What do you expect? At least you should install the 0013d/2708 combo to get additional 15MB RAM, otherwise Gingerbread ROMs will be slow, especially when you enable swap. If you would like to try out a GB ROM on your G1 you should go with ezGingerbread or one of it's variants. Just my 2 cents.
i might get rid of the g1. I saw on youtube peoples were running fast but mine is unusable except to text and make calls and even those apps are slow.

Have you tried updating your SPL/radio and ROM? Froyo ROM is pretty fast.
the phone is posted for 10 times .
and I find that the cyanogenmod 5 is very fast .
you can try.
the android system is 2.1 .
well if you have the time you could solve your problem quite easy.
root, change firmware and radio, and install a newer and tweaked rom like Laszlos' rom or froyo for trout. these are quite reliable.
This phone really isnt slow. It all depends on a persons needs as a cellphone user. For me its perfect. I dont play games, or run ram intensive apps. As long as i can make a call, send text/mms and browse the web every once in a while im a happy camper. Not to mention Laszlos Rom is so fast, i feel like im on a newer device anyway.

yep. its fully enough for me as well. now that theres DreamTeams' Froyo 2.2.2. based ROM, it even more snappy and fast than was with Laszlos' ROM, except there's not yet notification powercontrol and reboot option at Longpress-Powerbutton, but they are working on it.
so should one do nandroid backup and try that mod as well!

Blazingly fast for me. I also use it to play games that are power hunger, but it does not even slow down as much as I thought.

for some reason both of those Roms we're acting up for me ... I think you were in that thread BeenAndroidized.. Froyo Melt had tons of FC issues for me. DreamTeams Froyo worked great, except when i imported contacts from SIM or Sdcard they would not show up on contact list, but they would show up in text message app..very weird. So Laszlos for me right now lol
I also enjoy the features Laszlos has like Magpie and overclocking built in. Makes my life easier lol

If you can get facebook sync to work with the most current facebook app (the one with the "inbox" button rather than the "take photo" button it would be amazing. As of now, the only way to get facebook sync to work is to run the Moto Droid apk, which is the previous version.)
Anyway to get full market from the getgo? I have marketenabler working, but it isn't always consistent.
That being said, amazing build. Good work.

Slower. Linpack shows 2.2 MFlops for me, which is more than you get on Donut I think, but apps take longer to come up, a good 2 second delay sometimes. Overall its very usable just not as speedy as Warm Donut.

Using it from SD card has yielded positive results for me. There is obviously some slowness in opening an app here and there. Making and receiving calls seems to be delayed a few seconds, but again that could be because it's running from SD. I like the additional features/options Eclair adds over Donut, and the additional ROM items are nice as well (Internet tethering, etc.).
Main thing I recommend is that you NOT enable Gallery 3D. The moment I did that everything slowed to almost a stop. That is also mentioned in Cyanogen's write up linked from Aqtrans thread, but I thought it would call it out here as one that seems to be a show stopper, and I wouldn't want someone to judge this rom based on that one thing slowing it up.
with overclocking and JIT enabled, along with taskiller set to autokill when the screen turned off, along with fast window and transition animations, this is my daily build now.
def worth checking out v1.3

I'd wait til CM6 becomes final. 2.1 IMO just doesn't run well enough on G1's hardware. The speed is there, but apps get killed too easily for memory.

There is a lot of good custom ROMs. Go check The Rom Bible and look at the ratings of every ROM there. You will find something good.
And I agree that Eclair is usable, but not to fast. You have to set up a swap partition to run it good enough to be a daily driver. However, you will not find as fast 2.1 ROM as stock Donut. G1 has too little RAM memory (processor is good enough). But something for something - if you once see 2.1 ROM you won't want to go back, trust me .
If you're looking for speed - check Dwang, it's very good.
BUT! Very much depends how your son will use the phone. If his gonna do a lot of multitasking and play with the phone 24/7 then he should stay on 1.6 or start reading how to really set up an Eclair ROM to run smooth. If he is really casual user then almost every ROM will be OK for him.

Interesting.
If he's anything like my son, he'll be using the phone for messaging. I would definitely avoid Eclair and Froyo for now. No need to root it - stock 1.6 is fine for most everyday purposes. If he starts to want to install tons of apps, then you can root and start investigating your options.

i had the same issue until i rooted and got away from sense based roms.
i'm currently using CM6 test 4, no issues with dialer lag....same with darchdroid 2.7
the hero is a slow phone...no doubt about it and sense makes it crawl to a halt. i regret coming back to this phone after owning the evo for a week. i got rid of that phone because of lack of customization.

my hero is blazingly fast. faster and more responsive than the stock evo's and DInc's ive played with.
ive no dialer lag. im rooted, nfinites .6 odex version with darch #6 kernel. so fast. so fast. i also love all the customization ive been doing in the graphical areas, bars, the 3g icon, etc. the hero really is a great device...i often have to remind myself thats its also a telephone. heres hoping for the cdma htc legend(which im sure sprint will call the hero 2. ill call it the htc legend)
also, op, if you would like to solve your lag issue there are countless ways to do so. look around in these forums, the members and devs here are amazing brains... and with a little instruction/research you can do almost whatever you want to with an htc hero.
It happens on my Alltel Hero too. It's known issue and Alltel has sent notice to HTC for a fix with no response.

Let's get back on topic, shall we
DonB, have you downloaded any task managers or task killers from the Market? Using one of these on a stock non-rooted phone is a great way to kill programs that run in the background to free up memory, which is where the lag is probably coming from.
Advanced Task Killer (ATK) is my personal favorite. It basically allows you to kill (end) open applications that are sucking up free memory. One of these is a must-have app to improve battery life and smoothness of your phone. PM me if you need more info.
No, I do not use any task killers as I was told they cause issues with other programs, what I do us is a shortcut for running services and everyday now I reboot my phone once in the morning and then click on the running services and stop process on 3 apps, Gtalk, CS Vmail as I use Youmail, and Sprint TV, there are others in the list but I am not sure what they are so I have not stopped them, LOL but any advice you recommend I am will to try, for now I have downloaded Launcherpro and have been using that for a week or so and have notice it has been much better, there is still some lag at times , but not nearly as much as when I had HTC Sence UI as default, so it is much more manageable, before I had 30 sec lags with HTC Sense at times , not all the time but it was painful when it was that long, now worst case scenario is about 10 seconds

All of the current ROMS have *some* level of Blur. Since we cannot bypass the Moto Kernel, there are some levels of base code that just have to be there.
Tranquility, Apex, zapX, and Rubix 0.5 were all built on the 2.3.15 release and then removed as much of the blur components as they could and still have it function.
Fission & Rubix 1.0 built from a base that came out of the Droid2 SDK which appears to be very stock Android and therefore, they are a little more 'blur-less' than others. Which is both good and bad. Time is showing that some of the blur components have some nice functionality that people are missing when they go completely blur-less.

This is absolutely true and was the same for the D1 except it wasn't Blur, but you can't build AOSP for D1 either without using the extract-files.sh to pull all of the proprietary components that make the phone work.
It's a basic truth about phone firmware.

So far, I've had like maybe one or two glitches.... sometimes after a reboot the boot screen gets left on the lock screen, so you can still unlock your phone, but you have to guess where the sliders are.
another is that the calendar widget doesn't work.
Other then those two, the rom is FAST, stable, and battery life has been great. Worth it to me in my opinion... It's not an ASOP "experience" though... it's more like a hybrid.
Like it so far though, it's my daily driver.
Edit: Also, this applies to STOCK people (running the 2.2 OTA).... I was odexed, completely stock..... installed this rom with ease: no wiping, no formatting, nada. AND it deodexed my phone for me.... LOVE THAT.

This rom also doesn't seem to sleep when wick is on. Am I missing something? Anyway I do see how this can save a lot a battery with the screen dining and everything. I had to wipe my phone to get it to work. Last time I tried when I booted every system app was force closing. I feel like this is a little slower than rubix but way faster then stock. Could be too the drawer just doesn't feel right. Too bouncy for me to use quickly. Ill probably go to pro launcher. But if I don't want to how do I customize the 4 apps at the bottom?

If he is using just a leaked froyo rom. it probably has no lag fix. So installing a rom like i mentioned will give him the lagfix.
only widgets I have seen that make a lot of lag are ones that constantly use sensors, like compass widgets, etc.

I've used them all, and these really stand out!!
You can use the kernels that come with them or flash your own kernel and modem.
Thanks all for the replies. The only Widgets I run are the Task killer, and the power saver one to quickly enable wifi when in range, etc. No live wallpaper.
I don't have any hard evidence, but my experience is that having alot of apps slows down the phone. For me, when i have more than 10 or so apps, the phone begins to get bogged down. 15+ it becomes very noticable. 20+ i flash a new rom haha.
It was the rom. Im now running phoenix 3.0 and I now get H! Thanks man!
