Laggy - Desire General

My phone is actually quite laggy now. Sometimes flicking between the menus lags so I have to restart my phone.
Also, high end processes such as the game asphalt lag A LOT.
Whats up? I thought this was "the most powerful phone in the world"?

+1 finding mine to lag a lot as well........

Mine also becomes increasingly laggy, the only thing that sort of works is using advanced task killer to stop the all the background running programs, some were running on mine i dont even remember opening!

Not finding this at all. I think it's certain apps that cause it as my phone is practically full of apps barely any space left but still not laggy.
EDIT: No task manager on mine either.

i have around 40 apps including asphault and sygic navigation and i nevered faced lag in my desire....!!!! the only time i restart the phone is when i have all of them running and cause i don't want to kill them with task managers i restart in order for it to close them itself.

Sorry but I must say, I'm a bit disappointed. The Phone is Luggy.
And I don't even dare to compare it to Iphone (And Yes I know it boosts more then twice the resolution of the Iphone), but still When I play Asphalt It looks like a Pentium 3 running - Crysis.
So... "Fastest Phone ever made"??? Maybe only on paper...

Asphalt for some reason does not run well on the Desire, the game is butter smooth on my Milestone. Let's hope they optimize it for the Desire as well, the game is quite good.

The phone does get very laggy unless you use a task manager. For a snapdragon powered phone it doesn't seem to be very "Snappy". It's seriously bad in the "All Programs" menu especially.
As for gaming, the milestone will unfortunately always be better than the Desire. It has an OMAP/PowerVR CPU/GPU combo (The same as the Nokia N900) which outclasses the Snapdragon in 3D gaming but is slightly slower in CPU intensive apps.

I've been attacked with huge consistent lag since 2 days now (unknown before) but it was the miscall app and app organizer running in the background causing it (as well as voraciously depleting the battery life) so not a problem here.

Galaxy S gaming performance

I thought SGX540 that's superior than iphone4 would run new games without any lags but for new games such as 9mm and let's golf 3 i've face many stutter on those games. I'd like to ask others that you have problem like me or not ? or maybe next time i'd go back to ios or waiting ice cream sandwich. Those games are smooth in iphone4 but not in galaxy s that has superior GPU.
I didn't play to 9mm and I just tested Lets Golf3, but yeah... it's not strange to have some small lags sometimes.
If gaming on the phone is very important for you I suggest to use samsung roms and not cm7 or miui.
And yeah, maybe you should have buy an iPhone, Android still can beat iOS when it comes to games
im currently on JVT.firmware

I notice the lags too. I strongly believe that the lags are caused primarily by low ram. On Froyo, I never had lags in games, and they were all super smooth. But on gingerbread, after a few hours of usage, the ram drops below 100mb, and the games will lag. The games don't lag on a fresh boot. Hence, the problem is not with the gpu, but with the fact that 512mb of ram is just not enough for gingerbread. If you want to remove the lags in games as well as in the phone interface, I recommend that you flash a 2.2.1 rom. ZSJPK was one of the best roms I've ever used.
Yeah, sgx540 is better than the 535 use in iphone 4, but it's all about drivers and optimisations. And we can't deny that Apple is doing a wonderfull job with iOS.

indeed, i also think the lags are caused by lack of ram...
when you move the camera around in the game it sometimes hangs and when the textures are in RAM, you can continue playing without fps drops or lag
a tip before you start playing:
- root your phone and install "autostarts" to disable all crap which boots up with android
- reboot phone
- after booting go to task manager and cleanup ram
- go to settings => applications => active services and kill unnecessary processes. (for example, when you close the facebook app, it still keeps running as a service, sometimes almost using 50MB ram)
i reduced lag in 9mm alot with the method above...
Is there a custom rom that has a very low ram consumption? that would fix this issues

Reboot my phone. Clear memory with task manager. Kill active services... just to game? Why not just close some apps? Common sense, people. It's a brilliant thing.

Yes, it's called V6 Supercharger Script. It's like a ROM, but it's actually just a script... and you can run that script on whatever ROM you want. What it does, is it lets you pick a number. That number decides how much free RAM you'll have. Then, like magic, you just have it.
There hasn't been a single piece of good advice in this thread...

I can't use supercharger with semaphore kernel, and CF bigmem settings (98 mb) doesn't solve the performance issue.

No, custom roms, even so called simple and bare ones, use more ram than stock roms. I recommend ZSJPK 2.2.1, which has about 180mb of ram on boot, and an average of 120-140mb or ram after two days' usage.

Then you do it without the script. What's the problem here? I have over 2,000 games on my phone. And no, that wasn't a typo. None of them lag.

because android automatically closes apps when RAM is low and services always keep running in the background, whether you need them or not.
why would you let a service use your ram when you don't even need it? THAT is common sense.

I've rolled back to froyo and now without apps in the background i0ve about 140mb of ram used, and now 9mm goes smooth. I'm not moving from froyo any more.
Also, now the battery lasts in 6 hours of screen usage, and with jvt only 4 hours

Are they though? When I help someone out, I tell them correct information. If I don't know the correct information, I don't tell them anything. Why? Because incorrect information is worse than not helping at all. Few people in this thread have given remotely acceptable advice. No one needs to do a 3-step process, including rebooting your phone, just to play games; likewise, no one needs to downgrade to Froyo in order to game either.
I have Let's Golf! 3D installed currently, but I don't have the most recent revision of 9MM—although I have played it in the past. I have my phone's CPU and GPU overclocked, like I'm sure many of us do here, and I can play both without noticeable lag. I didn't have to reboot my phone to play them. I didn't have to uninstall apps to play them. I didn't have to flash an entirely new ROM to play them. And I certainly didn't need to stand on one leg with the phone above my head to play them.
Bad advice is just bad.

I posted what helped reducing lag in 9mm on my phone.
if you don't need the help i posted, that's too ****ing bad. the fact this topic was started shows people are facing the same problem with lack of usable ram memory for 9mm.
looks like you have some sort of magic phone with unlimited amounts of ram memory that never lags
the reason why i told him to reboot his phone is because ram usage is much less in most cases, right after booting up.
and btw, next time do some more effort instead of posting one line if my information is not correct

improve gnex performance?

i have a feeling this phone is starting to show its age. it seems whenever i install more than 100 apps on this phone it just becomes laggy as hell. to the point where right now the keyboard doesn't even open until 10 seconds later and phone constantly make weird noises when using tune in radio or youtube. the phone is also so slow that it can't even run temple run 2 or any of the games that came out recently. im using xylon rom with trinity kernel for those wondering. i honestly cannot use this phone anymore without having to do a factory reset every month just to stop the lag.
this could be a sign that its time to get a new phone but for now is there anyway to improve performance at all? i already am using the fastest trinity kernel and i have tried multiple roms and all of them seems to lag after hitting 100 apps mark which is ridiculous.
Have you made sure that the phone is not running out of memory as that is what usually causes the slow problems...I too have a 100+ apps and little or no lag. Try a different kernel and Rom maybe u could also tweak the processor speeds and stuff to get your desired performance...
If I helped hit thx
«««««««CYANOGENMOD 10.1 and FRANCO KERNEL»»»»»»»»»
Flash stock factory ROM and do a full wipe.
If you want later then flash custom ROM which is "STABLE".
Then make sure you have enough free memory on your Nexus's internal memory to avoid the lags.
You actually can't improve your Nexus's performance any other way, tweaks speed up very much..
I have over 60 apps installed (usually apps that I need) and some games..
I have 1.4 GB free memory on My Nexus and I use some cleaner apps to get more free space and I don't have any lags..
I use stock ROM that I've modified and stock default kernel..
The hardware slows primarily because of software (apps). Once the hardware fails, it fails.
Check and reign in the number and frequency of apps that sync, update and or check in.
Are you syncing an email client and or keeping them on the device rather than say the Exchange server?

I have 276 apps on my Nexus and (perceived) performance is better than ever using XENON HD Stable-4.0 and the Franco kernel r364. For the latest update of the ROM, I decided to risk a dirty flash. I seem to have gotten away with it. Performance "feels" excellent, whatever that is worth. My last factory reset was about 2 months ago.
The ROM and kernel have a variety of performance tweaks. I wish there was a way to benchmark performance in a controlled fashion. I hate feeling and perception in the performance department.
On the new ROM, WiFI performance is now solidly pegged at my account's limit of 30 MBs. It was all over the map before, although I realize that many factors affect the Speed Test app.
The "seeder" app helped a lot for my device in reducing lag. The overall community is sharply divided about the effectiveness of the seeder: YMMV. Its worth trying, though. I've been using it for about 6 weeks. Other than the Google Play Store updates, I don't have lag any more. Before the seeder, I felt like you -- the phone was almost unusable.
Regarding the device feeling dated, this ROM supports the expanded desktop and the pie. Wow, the phone feels new again. No kidding.

I also observed that the apps that run sync/update/check in were slowing down the phone. Check for apps that have daemons associated with them. Decide whether its worth having.

[Q] Galaxy nexus gaming ridiculous lag

Hi there
I have a Galaxy nexus on android 4.3 and running 3d games have lots of lag. For example, the game with the most amount of lag is Modern Combat 4 with the meltdown update. Is there a way to improve the gpu processor power on the phone so that itwouldboost the framerate? Its always about 5-15 fps and im so annoyed. If there is a solution, could you let me know? My galaxy nexus is not rooted.
Does it plays smoothly then, for no reason, it gets laggy for some seconds, then come back to play everything smoothly again, then repeats? Or it just keeps being laggy at all times?

It does exactly that, it plays smooth for 5 seconds then ridiculous lag for 10 seconds then repeats like a loop.

What I'm gonna tell you now may be related to what what is happening with your device or not. It was my problem, so if it's not this I don't know what can be happening.
First, the galaxy nexus can downvote it's processors when it's too hot, although it's probably not that, just keep that in mind.
Anyway, go to settings - apps then "running apps" and check the used and free ram. If you have high RAM usage (like, 600 mbs being used) than this is probably the problem. While you're in the game, your gnexus will try to clean RAM for it, but since your gnexus is already out of RAM, it will force close background app's and services, but since those are required to run all the time, all that's going to happen is that they will keep being restarted, causing lag in the apps that are running.
To check if this is the problem, just check how much free ram you have free. If it's too low, open a game (even temple run 2 or sub way surfers will do), then when the game starts, go back to settings-app-running apps and check for things restarting.
If this is the problem, then you need to see what is the apps that are consuming all your RAM (although it can be android itself, just keep reading).
Just check what apps are in the running part of the "running apps". If you have a lot of apps running, then you can try freezing some of them or unnistalling the ones that consume more RAM. BUT! it may be that there's just too much RAM being consumed even though you have few apps running, in this case, the problem is android itself.
I don't know if this happens to android 4.3 itself, the gnexus's version of it or if it's some app causing it, but there's a memory leak that will eventually consume all your RAM. I'll use my case as an exemple: I have some common apps running on background (facebook, messenger, whatsapp, airdroid, 3d watchdog). If everything is normal, my "used RAM" keeps aroung 430mb~. Leaving almost 200mb~ free for apps to use. But after some days using my phone, the used ram will grow to 500, then 550, then 600mb, eventually to 630mbs.
Check if this is happening to you. To check, simply reboot your device, then when it boots, check how your RAM is being used.
If it was normal before the reboot (around 500mb, probably even less) and stay this way after the reboot, then your problem is another one, then I can't help you.
If your RAM was high and after the reboot it's still high, check your running apps.
If it's high but after the reboot it's back to normal, then you just "solved" your problem. Just keep rebooting daily.
If this was your problem, then enjoy your phone. If it's not, you can try checking some other things like the I/O speed (which was solved in android 4.3. Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971852&highlight=trim ).

When I checked, I had about 300-400 megabytes of ram being used. Thank you for the info and the effort though. It has a dual core processor, it should be able to run well.
I figuare out the problem of the game lag, the CPU temperature limt!
If you're using custom kernel, set the limit to 74, and u will find out it smoothly on game play, plus if you of the gpu to 384, its almost lag free, but frame drop is also here coz the gpu power.
Does this work on stock kernel also? Last time i had custom kernel, lots of screen problems.

FKU also incorporates LeanKernel Updater so why isn't it optimized
And just to add that the above trick of disabling thermal throttling works nicely for me. I always wondered about why playing PPSSPP produces random lag - setting the governor to "performance" won't help a bit - and FKU saved my ass!

Problem starts when I run few apps at a time. Game, browsing etc., the phone slows down, lags and all. I ain't no expert but what good is 2 Gb ram if It can't run apps smoothly.
there are few, if any complaints anywhere on the internet about this phone ever lagging; close your game when you are done with it, and see if that makes things better.

Of course it does get better.
So that means I have to run minimum apps
no just close your games when you aren't playing them..hardly means you have to run "minimum" apps..
I have about 9 programs running in the background, and I have over 400 mb of free ram on my phone..no lag at all
Use Greenify to hibernate a few high ram users. Especially games that don't close properly.
But as said already... Android/Linux is built to run with a lot of the ram used always. This makes task switching quick and normally doesn't create issue, quite the opposite... Usually makes things open quickly.
But large games that are kept in memory is probably not a great thing.
I Greenify all games and anything else that hurts performance or my battery. But that's a short list on my phone.

Wow. I ve just Internet Explorer running and I'm left with 320 mb
Browsers use more ram as their cache size increases. It's normal. Android will boot older cached apps out of memory when it needs more space.
Stop worrying and start enjoying your device. It's working as intended.

Lag/freeze while gaming

Hi, i want to share some experiences
My phone is samsung galaxy A70
When i played games, especially HD game, in the beginning there is no problem, but when i have played a while (especially in game battle that involved many characters, motions, effects etc) my phone memory suddenly slowed down, the game is not running smoothly like in the beginning.
I will have like 0, second lag/freeze. And it really annoy my gaming experience
I can guarantee it is not the connection problem
(And it is not the game frame rate/graphic either, because they are not happening from the beginning, if it is frame rate/graphic problem of course the problem will occur from i started the game or everytime i played it)
Base from my experience, i think problem like this it must be something wrong with the RAM
My phone has 6 GB RAM, and my still new, only 2 weeks since i bought it
I have another phone with 4 GB RAM playing the same game and it is running perfectly smooth in the same connection, NO LAG, NO FREEZE in every moment of the game.
No resources-hungry apps running in the background
No live widget feeds
No background sync
Only standard push notifications
So i was thinking maybe it is the system or driver problem that make the RAM doesn't run well
What do you think? What should i do?
Any informations or advices would be helpful and thank you very much (for reading) ?
If it is PUBG Mobile, my mobile also lagging with latest update

It's not a Ram problem. It's called throthling. Your phone reaches a certain temperature and the phone Throthless the speed of both GPU and CPU in order to protect it from overheating. Thats why this most of the time happens a bit later when playing.

Thanks for the informations mate
But how can i fix this problem?
Can do some setups in setting or something else?
But i doubt that is the reason
Because when i restart the game, it became normal again
If it is because of temperature, i guess it will remain the same although i restart the game

You can't fix this as it's not a problem. This is a normal reaction of most of the phones. Even computer GPUs work the same. When they reach a ceartain temperature "limit", they thortle down the speed in order to prevent the GPU from overheating.
Sure, it could be also the game, some bad optimization. RAM has nothing to do with it. 6GB ram is plenty and even much more RAM hungry games run good with so much RAM.
Of course, after restarting the gameor after closing the game, the phone cooles down, pretty fast, but in the same time it can heat up pretty fast, especially if you're using the phone or playing the games while charging the phone. The only solution would be to go for better phones, High End SOC's which can handle those game easily without any strugle.

If overheating is the problem, it should be immediately starts on first day i bought it, but this problem just came out after i used this A70 for 3 weeks, what do you think just happened here?
A70 gaming issues
I have same issue with A70, after 5min or 8min game play in pubg the device heats up lags freezes.
I talk to Samsung support centre they said with new update our device is ok,it may b from game.then I said to pubg developers and they said our game is fine it may be your device.
So in the end there is no specific solution
I done it in developer option, I use GPU for screen composite only,after this the game goes fine.
I'm not experiencing lag or freezes during gaming, instead my problem is that game tend to refresh while I'm multitasking, for a 6gb ram phone thats a bit disappointing, and its not even a high demanding game I think (epic seven), I don't know though could be the game's problem, but then google tend to refresh as well
I'm playing Call of duty mobile and the same thing happens to me and the brightness goes down

I disabled four packages
.\adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.android.game.gamehome
.\adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.android.game.gametools
.\adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.enhance.gameservice
.\adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.android.game.gos
Its up to you if youre gonna debloat more packages from your phone but this really helps.
Im still currently studying which apps is not useful and which do i disable as i like having most of the features to my phone.
Goodluck on your phone mate.

I have Samsung A70 since autumn of 2019. I tried to play games like: Asphalt 9 (highest settings), FIFA Mobile (highest settings), NBA2K20 (I don't remember all settings are highest or some of them, anyway settings is not low), Call of Duty Mobile (Highest settings), also Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (Highest setting) and some others popular HD games. All games working smoothly, without any freeze or lag. My recommendations is: to uninstalled apps which u don't using at all or to disabled it, also do battery mid optimization, to turn off background working of apps which u don't need to work and keep to work only apps like: weather, if u have some widget and others where to need to update all the time information. From 6 GB RAM free always is about 2 - 2.5GB included that working Facebook which eating RAM a lot, weather or banking, sports apps and notifications. Bluetooth, GPS and others features which eating yours memory. I don't remember about Pugb Mobile, I guest I tried it without any problems, ran smoothly, but fact that I don't like this game at all for strange (if i'm not wrong) blue zone, when u have some time to run somethere before this zone kills u. I always don't know where to run, coz always i'm on zone, also why this happening at all. For the same reason I don't play this mode on Call of Duty Mobile too. Anyway this phone is really good for gaming, if you have trouble of lag/freeze try to all the time to do optimization of yours phone it very easy just one click on widget ir several if you did not that long time, also try sometime reboot yours phone, it recommend by manufacturers. Also to disable or uninstall apps which u don't need at all. By the way it not maybe important, but Samsung A70 have game app in which u can do more things to do better game experience like to turn off notification while u playing, also others things like to control to save battery or to do better game performance. By the way was one game which lag in this phone that NBA 2K Mobile, very big lag, even if is highest settings, but as I saw and I know it lagging in Samsung S10 too, so probably it problems of game, not phone. As I know this phone at this moment is not supported 100%, I know in Google Play u can download it, but as I mentioned it is not support, coz lag, the same I know that 2K saying too.

There is no reasons to do that. Simple things just free more RAM memory, do some changes like optimizations of battery, in Game app do better performance and ect. Turn off notifications which u don't need, to close apps in background which u don't need to work and others simple things, don't forget to sometime reboot smartphone. I do that everyday for several times if I playing all day. Coz battery can be alive several hours of full of playing games, so when I going to charge it, I do reboot too. It recommend by manufacturers.
Iam An Android Developer....But I Stopped Development for android since last year.....Iam Currently Using Galaxy A70 Also...Its a beast........i know why games are lagging and FPS Drop issue...its happening because of Software Optimization...Wait For April Security Patch Where Samsung Will Fix The Issue regarding fps drop and lagging in games...Its a Virtual Memory Bug....Which Can Be Fixed also by android developers but you need to root your device...i would suggest you to wait till april security patch ...after that u will notice a big improvement on gaming part and its related bugs...Ram Has Nothing To Do With It Guys....And SNAPDRAGON 675 SOC Is A Very Powerful SOC..And This SOC Is Capable To Run Any Games Smoothly...U Should Know That Guys...
So The Moral Of My Point Is Software Optimization
Thank You......
hello there,
I got the same device for Call Of Duty Mobile and unfortunately i'm facing major issues since android updated to 10.
It could be just a coincidence but, i didn't face the problems before the update. my problem is with the video mainly: the screen turns black, while i still can hear the sound, the device answers correctly to the moves i do when the screen is black (tested with an other player telling me what my character was doing).
to try to have root cause, i installed the app 'game booster plus from samsung store), and it seems that it's a problem of a temperature and / or Graphic processor) the idicators turn red before the game crashes.
i raised the issue to samsung and no solution from them until now... safe mode and basic stuff that doesn't help... like resetting the phone...
in my opinion, my last test should be hard reset the phone to get back to android 9 and try.
else I shoud try a cooler behind the phone while playing.
i'm really bothered , because this device should be a beast and i saw how amazing the game was on lower specifications like galaxy A51.
i'll post back here if any news.
Geekbench
