    Default Iphone is acting sluggish...

    Alright I have a Iphone 3g with snowbreeze custom Firmware. but lately it's been acting slugish as heck... I'm wondering if there is anything aside from reformatting it that I can do. I disabled all themes the only thing I have running is Sbsettings but I guess I can remove it too... it's just too damn slow...

    No multitasking... I do have a homescreen wallpaper activated..... But it's not that it's sluggish it's simply that it doesn't work right. I used to work perfectly but lately it's freezing up, not startin apps and a number of other issues.

    NO I meant a guide to install a custom 4.2.1 not simply backing it up. I know how to backup the apps.

    Since you're on a 3G have you removed unnecessary Launch Daemons? It makes a big diffrence IMO.
    Also ya might want to do a restore as new with your custom firmware. A fresh install of things may help.

    one thing you can try is to remove all the unecesary languages...it also works best with the launch daemons removed )) i have an iphone 3g with sbsettings.winterboard...and a lot of more tweaks
