Do you have power save on?
No
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Yes. I get that a lot with mine. Just scrolling the settings menu is a bit stuttery. Other things can be more so.
Not sure what's doing it and I don't remember it being that way when I first got the phone. Going to do a clean install of my Omega ROM to see if it helps.
Did you add a lot of media to your device making your internal storage go down a lot?
ex: shows, movies, music, etc
No

Record a video of your lag so we can see if it's indeed lag or you're being too picky
Use Seeder from play store and report back. You must be rooted
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Seeder wont fix your problem. Chrisssss had the right idea. Start over from a clean install or if you have a back up nandroid from when yoi didn't have the problem.

I think this is completely normal for the Note 2 by default. It lags for a fraction of a second when scrolling too fast both on stock and custom Roms based on stock, I even tried overclocking and its still there, I'm using the omega v11 on Perseus kernel 32. I think the solution would be to enable Scroll Cache. There's a mod available somewhere here just search for.it. And if you want to completely eliminate this problem go for a CM based android Rom.

On twitter it is ok but facebook and xda forum has this lag and I notice it more in xda than facebook. Anyone has the scrolling lag here too?
Another note, when checking the notification panel when u slide down there happens a scroll in the selecting options on top it is smooth alright but try this open music player and make a song play or on pause doesnt matter scroll down ur finger to get notification panel u will find a scroll lag in the selecting options the wifi gps etc, when it moves to the right there is a slight lag with music player appearing in notification panel

Go to developer options under settings and enable force gpu rendering. The smoothness is noticeable after enabling that

Its well known that iOS is known for their almost lagless software. Android has had lag issues in the past and tries to remedy this by improving CPU and size of RAm. But i still sense lag when opening programs sometimes or unlocking my screen or even refreshing a weather widget. Galaxy S3 is supposed to be one of if not the fastest android phones available but still suffers from some of the same problems that the G1 had. O well...i guess google has to stick with the framework they've already written. It'd be nice though if there was an app that measured lag. I know there're several benchmarking apps that measure overall speed but are they any that measure response time of a phone? An app that maybe runs several processes in the background and asks the user to touch the screen. Maybe type a few words using the keyboard or open and close a folder or two...
What apps are you having issues with, exactly? What firmware are you running?
Hate to admit it but I notice lag all over this phone on TW opening messaging unlocking the phone and stuff, on AOKP no lag what so ever. I don't think its Googles doings or code. More so the carriers and Manufacturers that make these phones full of bloatware and their own code.

Unless im mistaken ios seems more 'lag free' simply because it will only run one thing at a time, it cant multitask.
Android can run multiple apps at once.
If android was coded with the same limitation as ios it would certainly feel even faster.

Not apps really...home button lag. Wake/unlock lag... honestly if my phone can play music while i run a game/ browser, im fine with not multitasking.
If you have an ipod touch or iphone, you'll notice that if you try to load a webpage while continuously touching the screen, the page won't load!! Its using almost of its cpu on screen sensors which equals no lag!
For home button lag, double press home then in svoice go to settings and uncheck open with double home press (or something like that)
The lag is because it is waiting to see if you are single or double pressing the button.

Since we are on the issue of lag. Xda has not been friendly to me since I got the phone. If I browse for more the 10 min. It's impossible to scroll through posts its like it ran out of ram and skips top to bottom when I scroll. If I keep trying it will FC on me. Running stock

Has anyone noticed that when you start a new note, there's about a 3-5 second lag between the time you tap and when the new note opens?
Is there a setting to speed that up?
Thanks
Nope I have not found anything. I also get this lag

Edit: I thought perhaps everyone had this issue but I noticed that qbking77 had little to no load time on his s note app on his s pen review video.
Mine takes roughly a second to start writing a new note. The quick note, double tap with the pen button, is instant though.
I did disable Idea Sketch and moved some the templates off the SD card so they don't load.
Strange... When I try to disable my idea Sketch it only allows me to force close, no disable option. And every time I start a new note I need to choose a template so I'm not sure that will do any good.
@Chrissssssss are you running a custom ROM?

Do you know any solutions to this annoying problem? Its impossible to watch full screen flash videos with stock browser. Screen turns off automatically. i tried turning on/off smart stay, no difference whatsoever. I even installed 3 different versions of flash player, cleaned the browser cache ,nothing. What the hell is this? I am so sick of this stupid bugs.
do you know a way to fix it? and no I don't wanna use other browsers.

No, smart stay works when the room is lit but I like to watch videos in bed which makes it impossible because smart stay doesnt work in dark.

Yeah , it's annoying.
But I guess Android Jellybean system files dont support adobe flash out of box so maybe tweaking system files for screen time to support flashplayer is needed.

Try Screeble, best App to keep screen on while in use, by using screen orientation / gyroscope/apps

Search for "Screen On" on Google Play. Free app, no ads. Tick the stock Internet browser and enable the service within the app (disable the annoying icon in the notifications bar within the settings). Voila, issue resolved.

Thanks a lot for that, works great
Not had my note 2 that long. But one thing I do notice is when scrolling up and down in Web pages or emails etc... any where that needs you to swipe up and down through text or pictures the screen lags and stutters. Is there anyway of smoothing this out?

I also experience a stutter when scrolling through lists. It is very prominent in the Settings menu, if I flick downwards it will always stutter about halfway through the list. Tried forcing GPU rendering, no difference. I also tried enabling/disabling scroll cache (I can do that due to the Omega ROM I am using), also with no effect. I also got the occasional stutter with Touchwiz when scrolling through the home screens, changed to Apex and things are slightly better, but not much. Using Omega ROM v9.1, with N.E.A.K. kernel. I also tried changing the governor of the kernel from PegasusQ to Ondemand, but not much difference there. Power saving mode is off, by the way.
Any ideas? This is getting on my nerves!
EDIT: And here is another weird bit: I downloaded OS monitor to check the CPU usage when scrolling, and when I use the multiwindow feature to have, for example, both the Settings menu and OS monitor at the same time on the screen, I get almost no jerkiness when scrolling.
whnevr i dnt clear my notifications in the notification bar n when the number of notifications increases more then 3 or 4 notifications, so then whnevr i pull my notification bar down it lags... also whn more processes are running whneva i open the app drawer and try scrolling apps it lags slightly... i m using 4.1.2
plz i need a solution except rooting ma device..

Settings->Developer options->Windows animation scale->Animations off
Also disable other animation options below that.
Now try if it still lags. I have it still enabled but there's no lag for me - but I'm on custom ROM.

Install Nova Launcher from Playstore and try again - it should at least fix the app drawer lag.
Dont have any lag or other problem here..

Turn Power Saving Mode off if you have it on.
Hi,
Use all of the suggestions here and try Crossbreeder.
It's similar to Seeder but with more added twists.
Hope this helps.
my power saving mode is always off...
also whnever i am listening songs from music player nad go to my home screen and pull my notification bar it lags very much showing the now playing notificatiom
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
What's with this notification lag for some? I have none at all on mine.
Try removing unwanted toggles and use toggle control from app store to add more. Does that work? I have no idea since I've never encountered lags except a micro-lag immediately after waking up from deep sleep/boot. Consider rooting IMO.
now last option..
waiting for the 4.2.2 update at may end.. thnks to samsung... hope it works.. if that doesnt works den i ll go for rooting

The stock ROM is substandard. CM doesn't have most of these problems. However there is still constant lag evewhere but better than the stock ROM.
