Hi all,
I have a n2, which I am currently running stock.
When I first bought this phone last august, it didn't lag at all.
Since then, I flashed many stock based ROMs, and mods.
I flashed back to stock a few weeks back, cos I get better data speeds on stock then on revolution HD (I am guessing its something to do with the RIL as I tridd different modems).
I did a full wipe, formatted everything, ran fore ever gone to clean the SD card, and flashed the latest stock thru Odin.
I have deleted all the unnecessary system apps, disabled sync, power saving mode, Bluetooth, NFC, and most other things.
I only have 78 apps installed, and I have disabled root.
I have a 64gb SD card inserted, with movies, etc.
I am getting really horrible lags, like when I scroll a web page, it is not at all smooth, it just jumps and jitters.
Its like that in most apps, animations are not smooth, when I type, the keyboard lags, its just really horrible.
I have full wiped and flashed stock 3 times now, it even lags on stock based custom ROMs.
I don't want to use cm, as I need some of the Samsung apps.
Does anyone know how to fix this?, as my warranty is with kogan, so if I send it in, I will be stuck with my 8x for a few weeks.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Corey

Maybe some app(s) you installed put some heavy strain on the cpu. Install Betterbatterystatts and cpu spy for app behaviour.
do you also get lags when you have flashed a new rom without installing any user apps, i mean only stock apps? Have you tested to force gpu-rendering?
Otherwise your device could be damaged...

Hi,
I tried installing them, and all the behavior waa normal, so i am beggining to think it might be a hardware problem (maybe from too much over clocking ).

Hi,
Yes it lags even then, with only stock apps.
I tried force GPU rendering the other day, as well as disabling animations, but it didn't fix anything.
I rang kogan today, and they said I could send it in for warranty, but it would take up to 21 days
So I am still trying to get the courage to depart with my main android device (my other android devices are also at service centers being repaired ).
As I will be stuck with a wp8 HTC 8x ( a not quite as **** as i**** device ) for 3 weeks if I send it in .
Thanks for your help.

I have over 200 apps installed, full sync and undervolted -100mV all freqs and i suffer absolutely no lag. So i wonder what is causing yours? Running ARHD 15.0 with stock kernel.
check if you are on energy saving mode! that makes its slow!

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.

Hey,
I got my N7, 16GB WiFi, 1½ month(s) ago, and it was amazing. I was playing games, like Modern Combat 4, at a super smooth frame rate, I was browsing the web at amazings FPS's, just the general UI was so fluid.
The day I got it, I unlocked, flashed a recovery and rooted. I play the game I mentioned above, MC4, a lot and am quite good at it. I though that it would be a good idea to record what I was doing and show the world! (www.youtube.com/user/StealthGamingAndroid if you want to see)
The game was smooth before, just playing, and was still smooth after. What impressed me was that even while recording, it felt like I still had amazing frames.
About a week or so ago, that stopped. I was getting lag, the game was jittery and making the whole thing unplayable, even when not recording. But it wasn't just the game. The whole UI felt, even though it wasn't terrible, sluggish.
I didn't/haven't changed my setup, regarding ROM, Kernel or Processor Speeds since the day I got it. It is running the version of 4.3 it came with out of the box. (My choosing to keep it on that and not update)
The only things I have done regarding root have been using SCR Pro, the recording software, and using Xposed and Gravitybox.
I do not know what is causing this sudden lag, and how I can fix it. A brief search on Google didn't turn up anything that I could relate to. So I present to you my question.
How do I fix this lag?
I do not mind if it means using root, flashing a new ROM or even a new kernel. (Never flashed a different kernel on all 4 of my devices) Over clocking I also haven't done, but if it means removing the lag, I will consider it.
I am extremely grateful for what ever solutions or suggestions you give me, and will happily look into them.
Thank you for your time reading this, and for helping a confused user out.
Faithfully,
-R
Boot into recovery, clear you caches, boot normally, see if that fixed it, if not...boot into safe mode and see if the problem persists, if that fixed it, it's one or more of your apps, you'll have to either flash to stock and reinstall one at a time, when it starts lagging again you've found the app, or remove one at a time and see when it stops, if the problem still occurs in safe mode, backup and flash back to stock and see if it persist, if it does, maybe it's hardware.

That has fixed some of it, but it still feels choppy. (The wiping of the caches, I mean)

I use an app called Clean Maste. You can get it in the Play Store. It's basically like CC Cleaner on the computer (if you don't have it, get it!). Just clear all the stuff in the junk option EXCEPT obsolete APKs. If you know what you're doing, cleaning in Junk Advanced can help too.
Also, be sure to delete all the apps you don't need, and clear your multitasking often.
For a big performance boost. you can overclock your tablet. First, tell us if the other things work above. If not, PM me and I'll be glad to teach you to overclock

Did you try uninstalling Xposed?
When my tablet lags a little, I usually turn it completely off for a couple minutes. This helps me quite a bit.
This may sound dumb or crazy but you got to remember that it's a computer and turning it off once or twice a week will clear the cobwebs.

Totally agree.
I have lots of Stutter problems with the Gpad.
I have tried various ROM's but all doe have the problem, from Slimkat to CM11, from infected or from the original fork.
I seemed less with Mahdi, so i changed back to Mahdi 2.7, but still it is very bad.
The sympton: Micro stuttering, frame drops, screen and sound freeze, sound halts and buzzes. all in once for less then a second and random sometimes a couple of times in a minute, sometimes the time is longer.
When: While watching online stream, playing games, watch local movies from SD the same is noticed
What i've done so far, changed kernel, changed ROM's allways with a clean install, changed governer to interactive, even on performance, but never solved the problem.
It seems less with the new official bootloader from LG based on 4.4.2, but then the screen is dimmed on boot.
I can't remember this was with the stock ROM, i've heard others complain either.
Please let me know if there is a way to solve the problem, it is really irritating me and movies are unplayable.
It is just if some background process is taking all CPU power for a moment, or like on old computers where the irq's were wrongly devided.

I'm trying to find a solution for probably a problem which concerns everyone.
Hey guys,
I have quite a big issue with my maguro for a few months now and I'm getting very desperate...
I have MASSIVE performance issues - the phone lags as hell, apps stop loading, my keyboard gets stuck - hell, I can't even write a Whatsapp message without my phone getting stuck for like 2mins... It's reaaaally annoying and can drive me crazy sometimes.
First I thought it's just a ROM or kernel issue - but I was proven wrong. I changed ROMs and kernels and tried so many and the problem persists. I did factory resets en masse and flashed the newest factory image like 3 times - the problem persists.
I hope someone does have an idea what can cause my problems. I just can't stand this lag anymore... So pls help me
Not sure which version of android your running.
But my GN runs much smoother after installing/running these apps from play store:
Greenify
Lagfix
Send from GN running ParanoidAndroid2.57 Jellybean 4.1.2 w/Tablet Mode
Maybe a silly question but did you check your storage space? I had this with stock ics and read somewhere that storage consumption greater than fifty to sixty % causes these latencies. After just cleaning up the memory the issue was fixed.
Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago I was running an optimized version of CM 12.1 on my TMobile Galaxy S4 (this one) http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-orig-develop/exclusive-antaresone-alucard24-s-t3066696
It was working completely fine until I downloaded and installed an OTA update for it, and ever since then my phone has been acting wonky (not sure if updating actually caused it, but it happened around the same time)
Some of the problems included:
- Phone consistently crashing/freezing. I need to reboot multiple times a day to get over it.
- Soundcloud sometimes doesn't work. Usually it just doesn't load even though I have LTE, and other times it shows the song is playing but I don't hear anything. After a hard reboot, it works temporarily. Phone also crashes occasionally when I open Soundcloud
- Youtube also sometimes doesn't work. It's the same problem where it doesn't load even though I'm in WiFi. Also crashes occasionally when I open it
- Music player sometimes doesn't play songs I have saved
After experiencing all this, I took it as an omen to upgrade my ROM so I downloaded and flashed Resurrection Remix 6.0 for my S4 and I experienced the same problems. As a final straw, I downloaded and flashed a rooted stock 4.4.2 firmware (which I'm running now). The phone doesn't crash as much thankfully but I still have problems with Soundcloud, Youtube, music player, and just persistent freezing.
My phone was fully functional and suddenly I experienced this array of problems. If anybody can help me out or point me in a right direction, I'd be incredibly grateful as I love this phone and I don't want to abandon it (well...until the S7 comes out)
ODIN back to stock with the full firmware.

Okay, thank you very much I'm downloading it as we speak.
I was wondering if you have any idea of what the cause of these problems are as I'm looking to experiment with more ROMs in the near future but I don't want to make the same mistake again.

Can be a variety of things depending if you tweak stuff, install xposed, etc.
Generally if you make sure to do full wipes between roms you should be OK...
One more thing to check might be your microSD card. They can go bad on occasion. Try running without or with a different one and see if issues persist.

i noticed this with my s4 as well, but mine has to do with the sim card error. when i'm on stock tw 4.4.4 i rarely get a sim card error. then i flash other roms and i get the sim card error more frequently. for instance i just installed the Resurrection Remix rom last night an i've already experienced the sim card error at least 6 times already. i really like this rom so i'll have to deal with it, but if it gets the error too frequently, i don't mind going back to stock KK 4.4.4.
