Apex app drawer lag.

Is anyone able to reproduce lag in Apex launcher by repeatedly going in and out of the app drawer a few times? It has done that for me on every single version and is the only reason I go back to Nova. I emailed the dev and he told me to download the latest version...I was offended.

I still get that too.. seems better with Franco m2 kernel tho.

Works great for me. It is a phone, not a gaming rig. I've actually noticed more lag on nova. On apex, it only lags if I repeatedly go in and out of the app drawer a bunch of times...which isn't practical

That's the only way I am able to reproduce it over and over (which should be easily fixable) but it does it randomly when I'm in the app drawer too. The only time Nova lags for me is in the app drawer also when I'm swiping through it really fast but in Apex the lag lasts for like 15 seconds making my phone unusable.

The slowest thing on your phone

Hi guys. So, now when we have Jelly Bean and all things are really smooth, what's the slowest/most lagging app on your phone?
Ironically for me it's the official XDA app.

XDA app stutters like crazy. Surprisingly, Facebook is really smooth.

the youtube app is the slowest to open (1-2 sec after u tap the icon) , whereas other apps mostly open instantly.
as for lags and stutters well there is a big list of such apps, xda is definitively one of them

I am the slowest thing on my phone - everything else - super fast.

Netflix is still laggy when I open it, but that's not the phone's fault. Everything else seems to be up to par.

Do you exit from apps with back button? For the first time it relly takes about two seconds, but later it loads instantly if i exit from app with home button.

Power Amp is the slowest to open on my phone, but once I'm in, it's fast.

Indeed. Isn't it the whole point of home button? I always exit apps with home button so they open instatly later.

Yes, but its no secret MIUI have been very slow on Nexus and sometimes buggy. But it have great features so I still use it.

Yep xda is the most stuttery

scrolling lags like crazy

Does anyone have App Drawer lag? if you leave the app drawer long enough and don't use it, then when it comes to using it and you open it, does it lag a tiny bit for the first swipe?
I don't know if it's just me getting that but it's random and looks like it's sticky or something.

What launcher you're using? I use Nova launcher and it's buttery smooth. Also lag could be caused by inproper CPU speed/governor settings.

I am using apex launcher and its very smooth.no lags or something.

the lag I notice most is loading the dialer, idk if its really "lag", but its not as instant loading as messages lol

Paranoid Launcher Switch

Hey guys I have a quick question that's probably been answered. How do I switch launchers on Paranoid if I've chosen one as my main already? I feel like a total noob

Go to manage apps, find the launcher, then clear defaults.

Did that a few times but it didn't work
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app

Try going to manage apps all and find the launcher you want to use. It may be at the bottom. You may have disabled it. Reenable it from there.

After you clear defaults press the Home soft key. Then it will ask which launcher you want to use, and you can set a new default if you want.

This is true as long as you didn't disable the app. If its disabled its like having it frozen. It wont show up as an option.

I did have it frozen but ended up un installing it last night due to issues with music player being garbled on my stereo

Chameleon launcher constant redraw

Every time i open an app for a long period and exit it the homescreen will go black & blank for over a minute, it really bothers me, It's such a shame for something that costs you 3 bucks
I'm pretty sure it's not my phone, never had this issue other launchers

Perhaps there is a launcher setting to allow the app to persist in memory? Phone might be killing the task after a long period of inactivity, causing problems when relaunching in the form of redraws.

Get pimp my ROM and tell it to keep the launcher in memory. It's buried in the long list of tweaks, you might find some you like

[Q] Terrible lag when turning off the screen?

Has anyone else noticed that there a noticeable lag when turning off the screen? The slight fade out animation seems to stutter and there is about a 1-2 second delay from when i press the power button to it actually doing something. This is probably one of the weirdest places for a phone to lag.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm running on stock rooted BTW.
EDIT (more info): This doesn't happen right after a factory reset. I takes a bit of time for it to happen which makes it seem like some app messing it up, but it happens even if there isn't anything installed besides the default stuff.

Could you link them? I looked in the Q&A section and didn't find anything. The search feature is currently down so I cant use that. If this is in fact a duplicate thread, then I'll get it closed up.
