Phone is SUPER SLOW - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

My wife's phone just got super slow like 2 days ago...it just takes a long time for apps to load...to download ANYTHING...and I mean slow...I cleaned her phone...I used sd maid pro...and went through her internal storage and she now has 8 out of 12 gigs free...so what could be causing this...?...I tried switching Roms and it still acts the same...any help would be great...Thanks in advance...
P.s...she does download ALOT themes...wallpaper...and music...BUT like I said I cleaned her phone moved a lot to her sd card...

Download an app called Elixir 2. Open it up and touch on "running" and keep on tapping on the right arrow until it says "top" in the middle. You'll then see which app(s) are taking up the most CPU. If its com.sec.providers.downloads, that's the same reason I stopped using Touchwiz roms and switched over to CM. That problem crops up for me randomly and I've tried many different methods to fix it to no permanent avail.

She not on touchwiz...she's on cm10

Still try the method though. Could be a rogue app that needs to be manually closed. I discovered that the current version of the engadget app gives me that problem, sometimes facebook too.

Is it possible it was accidentally put on powersave Governor? Also clear the dalvik and cache from recovery. If that don't work your best off just wiping. Sheer could either have too many apps or rogue app using up to much of the cpu

Have you tried odining back to stock, performing a factory reset, then reflashing CM10?

O.k...and she told me she went into the file explorer and under android she went onto cache and deleted all of
The files... Would that make it slow...they were only cache files... But under android-data-cache...????

Power saver cuts down the CPU speed and does other things that I don't remember. With my s3, it would take hours after turning on power save for me to see the phone get slow

Theres more roms my friend!! the closest one(s) that are similar to cm10 are PAC-MAN PA-KA-DR they are similar.. it has cm10 parts as well as the other roms youll find on the original dev section and if you ever decide to pay attention to what im telling you... download an app called FAST REBOOT its really simple(not rocket science) and it frees up ram memory that apps are using on background.. its not a task killer....

Theoretically - yes, but I wouldn't do that. It will work, but as I was saying - the previous one was based on a Russian ROM. This one - on an English one. So... I would recommend to do all the wipes. You can use TitaniumBackup to backup and then restore your settings.
The next releases wouldn't need any wipes!
Did clean install and restored apps/data using tibu. Running great so far. Good battery life too. 0 reboots or bsods.The addition of lte support would make this perfect, although I don't know if that's possible. I'd personally give this a 9/10. New daily driver. Awesome work man thank you

Seems like the in call volume fluctuates between really low then back to what it's set to. The Russian version did the same thing. It's inconsistent so hard to reproduce. Other than that, perfect. Outstanding battery life as well.

It's because of the baseband - (P936 20c). Try flashing the AT&T one (P930 20c or P930 10j).
It's the same when using v10j baseband.
Edit: I actually had to flash v10j on this version to pull any signal at all, whereas in the previous version (Russian) I had service using included baseband

I'm not using this ROM but the storage tab on my settings say I have 2GB total internal storage with 1.44GB free... that page, along with the picture posted says the P930 has 4GB internal storage. The picture also says ours a dual core 1.2ghz processor; that page you linked and my settings reflect a dual core 1.5ghz. Something ain't right..

The phone has 4GB of total combined internal storage space, but it's split up into separate partitions. For example the system partition takes up about 661MB out of that total.
Generally speaking, people only care about how much space is free on their data partition, since that is where downloaded apps are stored. This partition is 2.15GB. That's why sometimes you see the "total" reported as 4GB (counting all partitions) and sometimes you see ~2.15GB (counting only the data partition), depending on where the information is being reported.

You're going to need to provide more information. Are you stock, rooted, etc...? If rooted, what rom are you running? I haven't heard of this, so I'm not thinking it's terribly common.

Did your app actually get installed?
I've seen that message and the Space it is referring to is not storage in internal memory, but rather to the home screen(s) being fully occupied by icons.
Right right... I'm on chilly's 2.18

i used to get this...i think i cleared market data...did you use luckpatcher or similar app to "disable adds" then uninstalled poweramp? also if u did use luckypatcher ...just open it and clear the applied patches before reinstalling poweramp...if not the case clear dalvik and cache
Experience taught me this one. Use ur file manager to go into luckypatcher dir. Delete the max. power . blah blah part whatever power amp comes on. Reboot phone clear dalvic n cache. That's if u used luckypatcher. If not just pull battery after clearing just dalvic. I hate power amp. Gone mad way better.

[Q] How to use Greenify and Better Battery Stats

Hey guys, need a little help. I've been suffering from bad battery life. I've used Greenify to hibernate some apps but it doesn't seem to help anything. I have Better Battery stats installed but don't know how to read it to see what is using most of my battery. I'm on wicked... Don't know if that helps.
I'm coming to the community for help, if anyone has any suggestions or how to read the better battery stats app... Just let me know

There's nothing u can do but wait until the phone becomes familiar with the battery, mine as well died within 5 hours or less I hated it but then I just ignored it nd let it be and we'll I've had this phone for about two weeks nd my average battery life is a day and 2 hours and I'm using wicked as well so just let it settle down plus if you restored apps from the stock rom then u probably want to do a full wipe and start all over again without restoring any apps because the back up u have has the bloat from the stock rom so it eats your battery pretty fast that's wt I did and it fixed it by Givin me two extra hours and also download gsam battery monitor and checks was using a lot of battery...

Then that must be the problem.. Like I said on the previous post, restoring apps from a stock rom could also bring lots of bloat and will eat up your battery so just do a full wipe and there's an update for wicked now so either ways u still have to do a full wipe and don't restore your apps or anything and the rom will be ready to go as well as your battery, I'm sorry but there's no other way specially when you have all Ur apps to your own liking but you have to start clean on it...
And once you have everything the way you want it again delete your titanium back up folder and reboot and then back them up again so once you do another update with wicked it will act properly

what about the user apps we backed up from a custom rom?
I'm off the stock since I laid my hands on my phone so I'm pretty sure the backups (TB) I've made was from a custom ROM, does it brings bloats too?
1 more thing, if you still recommend a clean start, is it ok if I keep the TB backup folder to restore the apps using "restore apps only"?
thanks before, your help is greatly appreciated

Browser issues.

Hi guys, I got this device today, rooted using Odin, and am currently using stock rom and kernel(4.1.2) my stock browser worked fine for the first few hours after I rooted and then seriously out of the blue it started giving me app not responding toast and closes. Any ideas what may have caused this? I deleted a few of the bloatware apps with TB but didnt delete anything having to do with the browser or data connectivity. I even left google talk alone and I always get rid of it. Any suggestions?

Try wiping cache and davlik cache in recovery and fixing permissions. That's always the first place to start.
Also, its always best to just freeze bloat. And after a bit, if all is well, then uninstall.

Edit: im a dumb a$$. I changed my screen density to 200. Thats why its crashing. I wonder if there is something I can do to edit the apk its self so it doesn't crash because of density.

Phone keeps rebooting (even in safe mode)

So this is exactly what I did before the problem started happening. I was on version 7/15 and I went to the recovery and flashed the 6/10 version and cleared dalvik and cache and then fix permissions. When I booted up, it acted normal for a few seconds and then it started happening. It would start freezing and then get that and shut off. I flashed 7/15 again and the problem still occurred. I cleared ktweaker data too...
Please help, I didn't backup my room (it's on my pc and I'm on vacation) I'm using my brothers phone.

I think it sounds exactly like what was happening to me. I will try to do what you did and remove my SD card next time it happens. I only seem to get that issue when im updating the kernel on Touchwiz ROMS, and on first boot it works ok for like 5 minutes and then the crazy lag, freezing then reboot loops start. From there every boot gets the freezing and lag within a minute of booting up and its either completely freezing up or rebooting itself over and over. The only way i figured i could get over it was doing a full wipe and re install my ROM and everything all over again on a clean install if i wanted to update the kernel. Definately going to try pulling the SD Card and see if that solves my issues next time it happens.

Did you debloat at all? Like delete system apps? I feel there are system level apps that i deleted and the ROM is trying to utilize them but it can't so it reboots. Cause if you look at the last_kmsg there aren't any kernel panics in it.

Yeah that's exactly what happened to me! When my phone would freeze, it would get extremely hot and just stay on the screen/or the screen would turn off and I couldn't turn it back on
Not sure what the SD card has to do with anything but I removed it before I booted back up! If it happens again to you, then good luck I hope it fixes it!
