Got quadrant standard yesterday and tested on my brand new Galaxy Nexus (arrived here on friday). The results made me SAD.
Only 2005 points while quadrant itself shows Galaxy Nexus can do at least 2500 points.
So, i´ve installed some good games and i´m experiencing some lag.
I´ve enabled 2D Forcing hardware option and nothing happens, worst, i experience lags on app drawer...
What wrong is happening to my phone? What can i do?
It is a YAKJUXW. If i make it YAKJU it possible be better?
Help me!
1) quadrant doesnt matter
2) turn off force hardware render
My epeen shriveled at the sight of that score.

Ok quadrant doesnt matter, but im experiencing too much lag even when im tipping texts like now.
Couuld be because i installed too much games and apps?
Mine is a bit laggy too. Almost doesn't feel like a new phone. Seriously considering CM9...

Hey everyone, just thought I would let it be known that (at least on my phone) overclocking past 1.8GHz causes horrible clicks and pops when listening through the headphone jack. I am using the Rogers Stock ROM with the latest KT747 kernel, and the issue appears when clocked to 1.89GHz, even though the rest of the phone runs stable. Took me a while to track down the problem!
I was hoping people with other kernels/roms/configurations could weigh in to see if this is an isolated or a widespread issue. For the time being I have just decided to overclock manually when it is needed.
EDIT: It appears after more testing that it was the kernel itself. Switching to stock kernel fixed the problem.

Suprisingly the temperature increase is hardly noticeable. I tested while playing N. O. V. A. 3 and a few other games. My One XL got burning hot while overclocked to 1.7GHz, even though it's the same chip, which I find strange.
I had this probelm as well on my SGS3, ended up exchanging my phone for another reason and the new phone doesnt do it anymore.

The galaxy s3 explodes with stock temps, I would be afraid to oc to 1.9GHz Oh, and I would edit the title from [FIX] it's kind of misleading since there isn't a fix here.

I'm a power user. I do just about everything with my phone, including lots of gaming with emulators. Perhaps I got a higher than normal quality chunk of silicon, but the phone didn't overheat at all, even when overclocked. The only time it got noticeably warm was while overclocked, gaming and charging all at once.
To those having this problem, it appears it wasn't related to overclocking after all, as the issue appeared a day later on stock frequencies. Changing back to a stock kernel fixed the problem.
In the end I sold it and bought an international SGS3 from eBay. I don't care for LTE, but the Wolfson DAC and Mali-400 GPU appeal to my usage case nicely.

Seeing posts like this just make me cry inside...from the day I first got my phone and activated it, I have been having overheating problems. No one would take my device back so after my 30 day "return" period or whatever, I decided to root my phone to underclock/undervolt to solve my problem....but even know, my phone gets warm by just using stock Browser after a fresh install (not Chrome or anything else) WITH underclocking.

I personally am a little let down with my S3. It may be fast but has some minor issues.. My power button gets stuck if I press it at the wrong angle in the lower area and the power button squeaks sometimes. Then some keyboard lag randomly isn't the best. The quadrant scores vary from time to time. But it does work well besides that and I feel is one of the best phones out there. Anyone having some similar issues? and What do you guys think about the s3?
And I'm sorry if there is a post for this already. I'm using the xda app and the search doesn't work well.
You may want to have sprint check out your phone and either fix it for you or replace. I've had zero issues with the power button. As nice as the phone is, you shouldn't have to deal with the button squeaking or sticking.
My home button has been solid since I got it. Has a nice click to it. As for keyboard lag and varying quadrant scores, those may be attributed to the same problem. When I was running stock I'd get the same problems too. Once I rooted and installed NoFrillsCPU Control I enabled "prevent changes from other apps" and haven't had any lag since. I think it still clocks down the CPU when it runs too hot though.
Wouldnt i be charged? and its my power button. not home.

Agreed. This is the first phone I haven't felt compelled to root. It's been great right out of the box.
By far, the best phone I've ever had. I've had it for over a month now and I still have trouble putting it down.
i have 2..my 1st(white1) works very well...my 2nd works very well however it has a power button issue..it is almost flush to the phone..it works and is responsive but sometimes i have to hit it twice and pull it back out..(the 2nd is blue)
I haven't been able to get the greatest battery life out of it. Seems to drain a few percent while idle. On my EVO LTE that things battery life was ridiculous good! I see some reloading too if I am in an app and then back out; more like a quick flash like a quarter of a second where everything disappears then reappears real fast. LI13 stock rooted is my best battery life so far - 58% right now 14 hrs - 1hr16min screen on. I get some 3G reload too at times where it'll say preparing network while loading a webpage or app etc. Looking forward to LTE cause 3G is pathetic and Jellybean, and Myn's Warm Rom!
Best phone I ever had. Solid and fast. I only miss my slide out keyboard from my Epic.
My best phone ever. No hardware issues at all, great battery life, good response, design, etc. Now just hoping we get JB in timely fashion and should make the device even better.
Personally, can't stand touchwiz, but love Samsung hardware and how much easier it is to root and put stock on. Unlike HTC, Sammy actually releases source. Haven't had any issues with this device, I do like it. I gotta say though, I did like new sense on the evo 4g LTE, but sold the phone due to such horrible multitasking and development being a step behind.
I would end up selling this one if cm10 wasn't out though. Just wouldn't be able to use touchwiz lol. Not to say that touchwiz sucks, I just do not like it, personal preference.

I've been thinking hard and long about this the past could of weeks since the Note 2 rumors/announcement. I believe I'll be getting the S3 as I don't need a screen as large as the Note 2 will have and from my comparisons of the original Note vs the S3, I feel that the S3 feels better in the hand. Well, that and I have my Nexus 7 with me everywhere.
I am really enjoying my phone. Best one yet on android. It was funny comparing my s3 to iPhone 5. Oh they try so hard yet cant come close to our coolness. Its like that one cousin or distant family member thats always showing off Lol. Only issue i found when upgrading to latest sprint built, my battery doesn't hold as much. Anyone else have an issue?

Yeah i can say im very satisfied overall, other then 1 minor issue which i can live with by rooting is that u cant transfer any of ure files to ext sd because of that darn ics sammy crap they pulled. Button works great no problems there with getting stuck or any squeaks. as ufor ure quadrant scores, scores arent always accurate plus score level doesnt mean a thing at all nor should it matter, it doesnt tell u anything nor its gonna prove anything....now why do u get random socres, its because ure GS3 is throttling back and forth. why is it doing that, all GS3 phones do that even the GS2 phone did that as well, is something that sammy did in order to prevent the phone from overheating because of the extra power its packing and to give u a better battery life without loosing much of the speed its giving u. now there are ways u can stop the throttling and have full power but i havent found it yet. the lag even if the phone where to throttle u should experience any lag, i havent atleast so yeah u might wanna take it in for inspection. i rooted only because of increase battery life and ofcourse to make my 64 gb ultra mobile class 10 microsd into an internal memory for my phone it worked like a charm. i believe the galaxy S3 is the best thing ever happen since the galaxy S came out.
TAKE THAT APPLE URE PHONE SUCKS. LOL
I am completely satisfied with the Gs3 and have had no problems after rooting it. Had a few minor complaints with the stock ROM but the phone itself was awesome.

Hey guys im coming form the At&t forum and we have been discussing the amount of lag on the phone I was curious if you T-Mobile users are experiencing lag like us At&t users? I'm curious if its the phone or At&t's version is just lagtastic.
I just came over here to post the same thing. Looking through the first couple of pages of threads, it does not look like lag is appearing anywhere in the titles.
I don't have any lag. What kind of lag? Maybe I'm not going through the same app or something.

In my ~2 years on ATT I've learned that ATT bloatware not only sucks terribly, but also is memory intensive. Get someone that's rooted to debloat and see if they still have lag.
Some people have mentioned lagginess, but it doesn't appear to be wide-spread. Posting additional info about the lag you're seeing would be helpful...

I have been rocking mine for three days and I'm experiencing little to no lag. The s3 had lag from the TouchWiz interface the lock screen had a little lag and the home button too. Overtime the s3 got faster. I've owned both s3 and note2 and now s4 and I can't tell you that the s4 is dramatically laggyer. But I do notice minors lag in certain apps but its not enough to cry about and it's not something that can't be addressed by either official update or custom ROM.

Ive owned all of those devices as well, and I can tell you the AT&T Note 2 is dramatically faster than the AT&T S4, and similar in terms of speed to the S3.

For sure the note 2 is snappier I know it. I wont lie. But the s4 (at least mine) hasnt been lagging that bad at all. This ui is one of the most customizable and tricked out uis ive seen out of the box..I have no been around 3 s4s and they all been running good. Lag I do notice is switching tabs in browser and opening gallery takes like 2 secs. No keyboard lag and quadrant scores are ridiculous
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Coming from the s3, I do feel that the s4 lags a little bit. Switching tabs on chrome and pressing home button is two of them, the camera shutter is laggy as well, it's not instant like how it was on the s3. I have disabled some of the bloat, but can't say it has helped.

I'm going to go ahead here and say something that will probably upset quite a few people.
Your lag (in my opinion) is most likely
45% Bloatware
40% User error/****ty application choice
5% The phone
Tell me I'm wrong all you want, but that's what I'm sticking with because I have experienced much less lag and much more snappy response than the S3.

This is a widespread problem on the att forum, and all display models I've played with.
Bloatware: it's all disabled

I should've put ATT where I put The Phone... that's really what I meant.
Like I have said, I experienced NO lagging problems. Pure speed and responsiveness. And this is on 3 different T-Mobile S4's that I have used extensively.
Like ^^ said, see if you can return your phone and buy a Tmobile and unlock it if it's that much of a problem, otherwise wait till we got some AOSP, because it's obvious to me that ATT's ROM is ****.
I must agree with my fellow T mobile s4 owners. I rooted. De bloated and took off a few useless window animations and my s4 is flying. Only one tiny tiny thing maaaybe is home button is .05 secs to slow. Personally I feel like its some BS samsung bug or timing issue in software.
Im coming from a rooted htc amaze dual 1.5ghz snapdragon w 1gb ram, that was a fast phone when it was unlocked and set up properly.
With the s4 Even when I had it completly stock it wasnt "lag" it was more touchwiz and bloat. Performance AND battery life have been amazing for me. My device doesnt even have much of the smearing others are reporting.
I dont post much but this device has restored my faith in samsung phones.
If your device is otherwise I think you should replace or buy tmo ver and unlock like previously stated.
Hope it works out for you.
I don't have an S4 so I can't test this, but Jason on All About Android said he turned off Air Gestures and the lag and stuttering went away.
I'm coming from an s2 t989 and am completely pleased with the results. The home button lag isn't evident in my device, I'll get back to you if it comes up .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have many app ideas, but don't have the skill or the time to learn how to make an app. if you would like to know an idea and attempt to make one, just message me.
+1, Not that it is a huge difference, but this does make a small difference.
Before my S4, I had (still have) the Note II ... The touch screen on the S4 is much snappier (obviously with the new integrated tech.) than any of my previous phones...Note II and S3.
This is definitely not a hardware issue for those who are experiencing the random lag.

Actually if it was overheating then the phone would automatically shut down to prevent damage, but yes the phone does get hot rather quickly. But I've had glass and aluminum phones before and they always get hot fast since metal retains heat.
Mine ran a lot hotter than a normal glass and metal phone, and it was laggy/jerky. I flashed the stock firmware to it, and now it's smooth and cool.
Here's How:

Smart switch is not working for everyone. Hit or a miss thing.
My phone heats up to 44 C
What is the Warning Level is it safe till 45 or 50 Celsius ?
It happens when
1) On use of Google Maps while driving
2) Charging
3) When i use Sandisk OTG, to the extent that it stop the Transfer & freezes
4) Even if i Record Videos sometimes
5) While wireless charging
This is really bad Never had such a Issue
I agree with some of the sentiments here that the device can seemingly get pretty warm - especially when I tweaking things or using apps that use a lot of CPU or using the camera for too long. But I do believe a lot of it is related to the aluminum/glass case - I believe Samsung is basically taking advantage of the case as a though it were a heatsink - releasing all the heat into your hand/pocket/air.
This is truly the first phone i've had that manages to stay under 100° F even when cpu frequency is locked to the maximum and I'm playing very gpu-intensive games, provided that i'm not charging the battery and the phone is not in an unusually warm environmnt like a hot car. I should mention that i'm rooted and lots of preloaded software has been removed. I would download some sort of process monitor and check it to see if there's a misbehaving app to blame if this is happening regularly.

Hey,
I saw that you posted a solution when someone had problems with his S6 edge overheating. I've an S6 and I think I might have the same problem.
I was wondering if you could spare some time to help me. I posted my problem here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/help-s6-cpu-getting-hot-t3180011
I used Antatu benchmark and CPU temperature to test my phone and it got to 84.0 C twice, once when it was testing my CPU to it's fullest and once when it was testing game performance.
So I was wondering if you could run the test as well and tell me what temperature you got so I can compare. Thanks
I haven't tried your method yet but I will tomorrow.

For the record, mine just hit 85C while running AnTuTu. As far as daily use, it made a world of difference on my phone when I flashed the stock firmware the first time. The phone was terribly hot in my pocket when I was not doing anything, and it was SUPER laggy when I was. Not something I expected from this phone. After the flash, it was a Beast and ran MUCH cooler. It would get warm still when doing intensive tasks, but that would be expected from an Octa-core phone in my opinion. It does not get uncomfortably hot anymore, like it used to though. I would imagine it went WAY above 85C when it got hot before, because it was actually hard to hold at times.
If you have not flashed it since new, I would highly recommend it. I know it's a pain, but it's a one time thing that you never have to do again, and the benefit MIGHT be large. No guarantees, as you may not have the same issue, but I've received a lot of reports from people who have done it and they say it breathed new life into their phones. For me personally, it was DEFINITELY not a placebo affect. It was night and day.
With all that said, I've got my S6 Edge up for sale right now as I've moved to Apple for a little while. I continually jump around, and T-Mobile offered the iPhone 6 for $15/mo and I can trade it in 3 times in the next 18 months for free and keep paying $15/mo for the newest phone. I'm looking forward to seeing the difference in the iPhone 6s. If it sucks, I'll be trading it in shortly for another Android phone.
PS: AnTuTu final score: 69314!!!! Wow!!!
One more thing. To eliminate ALL lag and slowdown, I replaced the Samsung Launcher with the Google Launcher. What a difference that alone makes! Seriously, try that one thing. It's huge. The Samsung Launcher has some issue somewhere that they still need to address.

It should. As long as Smart Switch can recognize your phone model and download the Correct Firmware, the Flash WILL help the Heating and Lagging problem. If your phone is not recognized, then Smart Switch will not do anything. It's worth a try.
For me it happens especially when im playing arround with that samsung theme store build in app. I don't know why that app needs so much power to have that effect on the phone but for sure its something samsung needs to look at.
For sure they need to re-design that app from the scratch. Its like the "my first homepage" of theme apps.
