Freezing issue on ICS - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi, I guess I'm having this issue since i updated to ICS. At times my phone will stop responding while opening an app or working on an app. It'll not respond to any key (back, home) and after a while it'll prompt that the app its not responding and to terminate it. Any ideas?

I assume you are talking about stock ICS 4.0.3. Had those issues. Flashed Darthstalker (I assume Jedi Mind Trick 3 will work just as well) and problem went away. Try it, you wont be disappointed :good:

Yes, i thouht the same before. I flashed Darthstalker V2 yesterday but i still this issue, so was wondering what could it be

Is it the same app(s)? Might need to clear data and fresh install.

No, its not a single app. Its random, can happen with any app. And its not everytime but at times it will behave this way.

I get this on 4.0.4 too

Long home press doesn't bring up open apps

Have a weird bug that comes and goes and can't figure out why or how to fix it. Long pressing home should bring up all open apps and let you get to task manager. Most the times it works, but every once in awhile it will completely stop working. A reset fixes it or if i just wait awhile it will come back.
Anyone else get this or know of a fix? Home button still works, just not the long press

I get this now and then. Only solution I've found is a reboot

This happens to me sometimes right after or during watching an online video through the browser, it doesn't work until the video player or the system UI force closes(takes around a minute)

Most probably a rogue app not letting the phone sleep. Check what you have running in the background. Mined does that every so often if I dont close an app properly.

I already saw this a few times on my phone, but I don't know if it happening often, since, most of time, I turn it off myself

fixed wake button lag in lte update

Hey all, the wake button lag was my #1 complaint about this awesome device. Maddening! I did the MB4 update to see if Albuquerque had lte yet (nope) but got this totally wicked surprise. Its close enough to instant wake now, before the wait was uncomfortably long. So even if you don't leave lte yet, don't wait for the ota just let kies make your phone better
Not really I still got the lag

Weird. Mine went from at least half a second to almost instant.
mine's pretty quick now
S Note is so much better as well. Opens the instant you press the button. The new widget is amazing as well. I love the update.
The only thing I'm worried about is the battery drain issue that came along with this update with the other carriers Note 2, S3 and other devices. Anyone notice it?

I still have lag.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
I've been reading about people saying the lag is gone but I still have it as well, when I press the power button there is like a .5 second delay before the screen actually turns on (has always been like this).
My lag is now gone also. It act's as if you press it twice because task manager comes up quickly.

I don't really have a feel for it yet, but I did notice more heat which implies faster drain.

So I'm not the only one who's been having this happen? It's actually kind of annoying that the task manager keeps popping up when I hit the home button. I thought it was only me but is there a fix for this or anything to stop it?
I'm having the same stupid issue! Man is it irritating.
This is the actual fix guys. See the screen shot. All you have to do is uncheck the home button activation for svoice. This has been a known issue since the S3

That only affects pressing the home button not the lock screen lag.

Unchecking that svoice option helped with the task manager issue but I still see some lag with either button.

I remember reading another thread when the note 2 came out. Someone mentioned that it was an exynos processor issue. I'll have to find the original thread.

I doubt it. When I'm on the stock ROM I have the wake up lag. When I'm on any CM based ROM there is no lag.

Apps force closing

I received by note 3 2 days ago and some of my apps keep force closing. Has anybody else run into this issue? I'm currently all stock

I've been running into the same issue mines all stock as well. It happens randomly and just becomes a blue screen, the only way I get out of it is to restart my phone.

I've had tons of freezing issues, on the lock screen, force closes with apps and unresponsive home button. I'm on my second Note 3 and starting to think it's poor execution of software. If it helps, I disabled my magazine and a bunch of samsung apps. If you are in app launcher and click and hold an app you can 'disable' it and essentially works the same as Titanium Backup Freeze method (without rooting ofcourse).
I've found that to help a bit. I don't know if the lock screen freezing was due to the s view case just yet. But I'm trying to hold out getting a third replacement if I can.

So you were able to have your phone replaced because of this issue? Was it through T-Mobile or Samsung?

Wifi Issues

I'm having issues with my Wifi and clueless on how it got to this point. Everytime I try to turn it on, it turns back off automatically. I'm at home trying to connect so it should have the password saved already. Any ideas on what to do?
I'm running Wicked Rom V7, I have been out with friends all day drinking. Haven't used my phone besides texting, Instagram, and Facebook. It was fine this morning til now.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Are you sure its not working? I mean after drinking all day, a lot of things might seem broken that aren't. :beer:
If you are sure its busted, check these things...
Make sure the password on the router hasn't changed. If you live with other people you never know. Or the router could have just reset to defaults for some odd reason.
Delete the saved WiFi connection on your phone and start over. The password in your phone might have been corrupted too, causing it to send the wrong password to the router. Don't try to fix it. Just delete the entry and start over. That way if its another problem you'll fix that issue too.

Try this,
Download and cwm/twrp flash the Ktoonz kernel, that usually
fixes most wifi issues which people are having.
Here are the direct download links for the Touchwiz JELLYBEAN 4.3 VERSION:
http://ktoonsez.jonathanjsimon.com/s...11.14.2013.zip
OR if you are using 4.2.2 rom then get the Touchwiz JELLYBEAN 4.2.2 VERSION:
http://ktoonsez.jonathanjsimon.com/s...11.14.2013.zip
Good luck!

I flashed the 4.2.2 and still have the same problem, I just hope it isn't any hardware issues. I guess I'll be backing everything up and reflashing the rom.

Found out every time I install this app I have the issues. So if any of you who had the same issue as me, just don't install this app. If you did already, uninstalling it won't help. Back-up necessary stuff and just reflash rom.
