FP2 just arrived…
Should it run really this slow? It seems like reacting on every screen touch with more than a second delay. Moving app icons is horrifying, entering a wifi password without errors almost impossible.
The FP1 with 150+ apps still runs faster.
When you’re already in Recovery Mode you can also wipe the system cache.
If nothing helps you can - as you mentioned - send your phone back for a full refund, or you can contact support and probably get a replacement phone. These are shipped with priority within a few days as far as I overheard here on the forum.
I am encoutering the same problem…
After having our FP2 back from the first repair (camera focus didn’t work, accu/charger issues) I wanted to set it up again when suddenly the FP2 got so slow, that it couldn’t be operated proberly.
Tried a hard reset/cache wipe but without success.
I connected it to the charcher and for a short moment, the speed came back - sadly only for a short moment. Therefore, I think, this is rather a hardware problem than a software bug…
I am going to send it back again which is really annoying…
