guess its time for a restore.... really wish i didnt have to do this.

As Stealth said, did you run the script or did you manually delete the language files?

Did you also reboot the phone BEFORE and AFTER to compare the results?

On a side note, you have a 3GS. You might not notice a dramatic speed up but I'm sure us 2G/3G users will.

Sorry...when I said noticeable, I was expecting 20-30 meg more.

I'm sure I got a few meg out of it...had to of.

i deleted em manually

silly me. oh well, fresh restore, jailbroken unlocked, all is good. i already did the launch daemons, and rebooted successfully. can anyone show me how to run the script using winscp? thanks

EDIT: nevermind. i just found his post on how to do it.

i went manually... you have to watch it b/c in about 6 folders they stuck "Support" files and in about three there is another file stuck in the mix. Meh, i know i deleted one in /SYSTEM/LIBRAY/FRAMEWORKS/addressbookui.framework and my phone still works just fine.

edit: how the f do i turn off the stupid pop up for facebook... yeah im dumb and it locks up my computer and/or doesnt post b/c of that and im pulling my hair out trying to figure out where and why i did that.

How much memory are you guys getting on your 3gs after doing this?

with the un-needed language packs im getting about 160-170 free memory

Hey guys just wanted to report my findings! I'm using a 3GS on 3.0.1!

Ok so i deleted most of the "safe to delete" deamons from the guide then rebooted, before reboot 159mb free ram after reboot 161mb free ram! This wasn't enough of course lol so i then decided to delete Every language pack in the phone other than english/en using ifile, it took me over an hour and trust me if there was a lproj that wasn't english on this phone AnyWhere, theres not now! Free ram after several reboots still 161mb!

Then after realising this isn't that effective on a 3GS (unless you delete system heavy processes that will in turn fudge your phone up and defeat the object of having it in the first place) i deleted the modded "launch daemons" folder and restored the original (backup) rebooted and guess how much free ram i had now... 164mb

I'm not saying this doesn't work or it does i'm just reporting my findings on a 3GS... Hope it helps

Matt

I wished I'd have checked my exact stats as well, but I'm pretty sure I'm w/you from what I remember. Prolly a meg or two.

Great info for the "older" guys thought.

Doesn't really boost up the RAM amount, but it does make it a lot snappier.

jdys_1991 · #42 08-28-2009, 12:07 PM

I finally tried it on my iPhone!
It doesnt show a HUGE increase BUT it definetly makes it run smoother.
I deleted some of those daemons (mixed, safe and unsafe) and ran the language script.

Looks like I'll be bookmarking this post for future use.

What model of iPhone are you using?

jdys_1991 · #44 08-28-2009, 02:51 PM

I did it on my new iPhone 3G 16GB.
Worked without any problems.
