So I upgraded to the Stock JB on Rogers..
Now when i'm Txting with the stock app SMS app I get lag
Say i'm typing a txt message to someone and a new one comes in at the same type as i'm typing the phone will lag big time or freezes just for a sec..
Any way to fix this.. it can get really slow if I have a conversation going on with 3 different people at the same time.

I have the same Issue on AT&T stock JB. I'm using ChompSMS and it is super slow at responding to my keyboard input. I tried the stock messaging and its even slower and freezes. I tried clearing the ram and trying again but it didnt help. It was fine right after the update but now became sluggish. I'm using the stock samsung keyboard too
I flashed a different keyboard and it seems to fix the lag when typing. Haven't seen much other lag in SMS. The keyboard I'm using is https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwyLDEsImplbGx5YmVhbmtleWJvYXJkLmYuZyJd
Pretty much most keyboards are better than the stock IMO. I use the 4.2 keyboard, personally. Brilliant work of art right there xD
I use a different keyboard and still have lag issues. Probably not to the extent at the OP but it's still noticeable
Turn off the auto suggest.
I've noticed that after upgrading and keeping your existing data it feels sluggish and laggy regardless of the carrier ROM.
I flashed via ODIN the completely stock official jellybean for my carrier att and restored all apps via market and data only for certain apps via TB.
My touchwiz jellybean now works with no stutter or lag whatsoever and the battery life is now exceptional. When I did an upgrade it sucked real bad.
Backup your internal SD if you do this as it will wipe your internal SD and make sure before flashing via Odin that you do factory reset and wipe data, cache and dalvik.
You can re-root using cf root then install TWRP or CWM after that and then finally use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.
same here. looking for a solution, stock keyboard on official att JB is super laggy and slow when compared to aokp... unsure why. sometimes it even freezes. i've moved onto swiftkey flow for now; seems to be a little better.
So I have been using SwiftKey keyboard for a day now and the issue is gone.. So it must be the stock keyboard. Causing the bad lagging

I have had my Arc since it first came out in the UK but have noticed on occasions of late that it seems to have developed a lag, especially on things like accessing the gallery & messaging. Has anyone else noted this?
Nope. However I do use a cache cleaner every few weeks.

Yup, after about 2 weeks mine started to lag every once in a while. I just assumed it was because of some faulty app. So I did a clean install, and 2 weeks later it was the same again. (didn't install too many apps this time)
Mine is still great.
try an app called fast reboot....I find it speeds things up
No lag at all here, 2 months in.
Had the Arc (UK) about 2 months and in the last two weeks things have really started to lag. Have had to resort to rebooting and cleaning the cache regularly but it only takes a day to start lagging again. Wondering whether there is a CPU/ memory hog there in my app suite or a widget but haven't been able to identify anything yet. Once the phone goes below 40-50MB free it is all over and I have to reboot.
This may sound weird but my phone lags during the day and it runs super fast at night lol

Same here after about 1 to 2 days the phone memory goes to about 25MB and is practically not useable and need to reboot. I am on 2.3.3
I went through my apps & by trial & error ended up removing a particular app & that seems to have sped things up a bit. Also downloaded a history cleaner & used that & that has improved things a bit as well. But in certain areas it definitely still seems to lag. Have to wonder now if it is something to do with the Arc's hardware?
ok guys after using SeePU+++ i think i found the process that uses the most cpu power and lags down our Arc is "ndroid.process.acore"
not sure what it does but i believe it is the culprit for random slow downs and lag on our phone...
does anyone know what it does? can anyone confirm my findings?
P.s. I am on global generic 2.3.3 firmwre 145
This problem may be caused by a bug in the Google Contacts Sync , just as seen in this bug:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2377
In other devices like HTC Evo this problem persist
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...ore-why-sucking-up-so-much-battery-power.html
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...andom-reboots-magic-bullet-facebook-sync.html
I don't have the Google Sync activated and i don't feel my Arc Laggy
This phone is incredibly laggy. Many FCs or lags when I open the messaging app or other apps... Very sad and frustrating.
One of the major causes of lag on the HTC hero was having too many text messages stored on the phone. Ever since then i tend to not let the numbers build up too much, and i havent noticed any lag problems on the arc (maybe it's a general android problem).

one of the main android apps, your keybord and other important funtions are here, so my advice : dont touch it or you end up reflashing ROM
bought this not even 24 hours ago. didn't mess with it too much before i updated so i can't say for sure its the update. but everything i do it seems to work for a couple minutes then FC. market included. i'll reboot and that will work for a little while and then back to FC'ing everything.
also when i go into all settings/apps/all its still showing a firmware update there.
should i revert back to 3.2 and see if anything is jacked up or what?
sounds like a weird bug. try "resetting android" in recovery. I don't remember by heart but I think you may need to re-install archos aos you can download here http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates_fwm.html?country=us&lang=en

thanks shano. same thing this morning. my daughter was playing with it and watching videos for about an hour and then BOOM, FC for everything.
i think im gonna roll back to honeycomb and give that a whirl for a while.
Try installing a task killer or using the built in task killer. Sounds like your running low on memory. Try uninstalling any apps that start at boot too.
Psi.
I get this all the time too, really annoying...

ok guys i reverted back to 3.2 last night and started fresh. we'll see how things go this weekend
looks like that may have fixed it. had it on all day and no FC'ing.
ICS might have jacked up when i did it over wifi due to when the tab went to sleep it killed the wifi. i had to start it up like 3 times!
i am using now 4.0.6 test 2 firmware it seems more stable but browser still hangs some times and
divice becomes unresponsive. so im using nemus launcher (free from Google play) and stopped default launcher. its much faster especially when i stopp all using system task manager
and by the way i have no gps , wifi , hdmi problems at all but apss still cant use my sdcard :-( .

If the tablet hangs try changing the CPU governor to performance using Set CPU or something similar as this fixed all my hangs . Hotplug seems to cause hangs quite a lot.

So I updated my Verizon GNEX to 4.2.2 yesterday and I feel like the OTA did a bad install. Prior to the update I had no keyboard issues but now whenever I open the keyboard to use it (stock keyboard) it repeatedly slides in and out of view without touching the screen at all or while im typing which is even more annoying. If I switch to a custom keyboard (like swiftkey) it does the same, only instead of slidiing in and out of view it will rapidly flash in and out of view. I would really like to keep my phone stock. Everything else works fine. Its just this one issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW: I've already tried a factory reset, going to the stock keyboard app and clearling data, cache, force stopping and disabling. None of it has solved the issue.
I haven't posted much in these forums so I can't post on the thread of the ROM itself. I'm having some problems with this ROM.
On the newer updates of Hangouts and Snapchat the phone acts super buggy.
In snapchat the video function just freezes the screen. Looks as if I've taken a photo but then snapchat is unresponsive. I've been running this ROM for almost a year and this is the first time I've experienced this.
In Hangouts I'm just experiencing HELLA lag. Which honestly seems to be happening to the phone in general recently (about 2-3months). Whenever I chose a contact and start typing sometimes it'll just go back to the contact selection page. Sometimes as I'm swiping words won't register (in all apps).
Other laggy/buggy issues I've noticed is that the pattern unlock function sometimes lags HARD. Other times the button doesn't wake my phone for like a minute. This didn't happen before when I first started running this ROM.
Any help/insights would be much appreciated.
Have you updated your firmware to the latest? Have you tried doing a factory reset (erasing data and cache)? It sounds like firmware or something on the data partition causing it. Especially since you said you have been running this ROM for awhile and we have had two firmware updates in the past couple months. Also the data issue might he true because there could be an app that is causing this issue. Happens more often than you think.
TL/DR: try new firmware and wipe data/cache from recovery and let us know if it is fixed.

I just bought the 8.4 at the black Friday price and I'm getting awful lag when scrolling through a pdf in landscape. It only happens when crossing the divide between pages. It also lags worse when switching months in Google's calendar app than my Nexus 7 2012 does. In fact the image at the top doesn't even smoothly fade. The calendar just hangs for a second then jumps to the new month and image. I was curious if anyone else is seeing the same thing or if mine might be defective. It is a lot faster than my old tablet in most other ways but this random lag is driving me nuts.

That's weird. I have tried cm11 and cm12 and every pdf is pretty smooth, already tried to clean cache?

I haven't tried a custom rom, still on stock. Tried a factory reset and I am still having the same issues.
I switched to CM because I couldn't even smoothly scroll down a page on Chrome on stock.
I may try that. I'm just afraid of having a problem down the road and Samsung giving me crap over it. How hard is it to restore stock?

The stock rom is available online and just needs to be flashed using Odin. I haven't tried doing it yet tho, but I doubt there will be any issues.
The biggest thing is that if you root or change roms, you're probably voiding any warranty that you have. If you're tech-capable and willing to troubleshoot your own issues, I would say that it's worth it.
Thanks, I went ahead and installed CM 11 and it fixed the problems I was having.
