i am using XDA Premium nothing noticed so far its smooth,
Could you clear Cache for this app and Data and re setup and try again .

I get it sometimes, depending on what kernel / rom I'm using. I use it to test kernel / rom smoothness as a test.

Thanks in fact i'm using perseus kernel, but i think it depend on which apps i'm using. On some apps i have no lag.
I also use pheonix rom, but if i want to eliminate these lags, i'll loose some battery life.
I think i'll buy zerolemon battery and put higher settings on the kernel. But i really need the settings for color on perseus kernel and i don't know if any other kernel use it?

If you're on Stock Rom then there'll be lag, in xda, in Tapatalk, when scrolling in my files and almost everywhere else. But since I moved to Android Revolution HD, almost 50% of those lag things are gone. Now when I scroll through Tapatalk, or in Twitter, it's just smooth as hell. Well not iOS or WP smooth, but for Android it's more than enough. Honestly I've never believed or seen a droid phone could perform this fluidly.
I sounded like a custom Rom fan, but let me tell you, I actually hate them, and always preferred stock ROMs, but this ARHD is something.

I just tick force GPU rendering and disable hardware overlays in developers options and lags are gone on my stick rom. Shrugs.

That does work, but some apps...most noticeably the email app doesn't play nice with that setting.

Really? Because I recently have left both those ticked because I haven't had any other problems in other apps. Never had a problem with email app ever. I ticked both of those approximately two months ago and still haven't run into any color or cache scrolling problems. Heck it seems a couple of other apps lost the infamous xda lag. Cant believe xda app is still laggy.

Try this: Set it on, go into the email app and click into an email (not just inbox but an email) now scroll quickly. For me I always see distortion...I've tried many times with different roms / kernels but its always the same. Not a biggy though, I just use another email app now
Edit: Im talking about the email app not gmail app btw.

Lol. That is due to Mali's slower fill rate. And once you scroll through all of it, it doesn't do it anymore. Same in the browsers. You're less likely to see that on a power vr or adreno platform.

Ahh I see, though distortion is distortion, whatever the reason
It annoyed me anyway, so i changed email app. All good now.

I already have gpu rendering enabled. But i didn't try to disable overlays hardware gpu. I'll try thanks!

God I am so stupid! I fell for this, flashed back Stock ROM and enabled those options! Now after half an hour I am flashing back ARHD and restoring backup.

It has nothing to do with gpu rendering. You can replicate it in many browsers with it with out GPU rendering ticked. It can minor or major issues but I just haven't run into any lately, so for now it stays permanently ticked til I come across something elsemucked up.

Hmmm, I only see it with Force GPU enabled.

Lags still here even if i activate 2 options on developers tools about gpu.

Force GPU Rendering

Turn on {} Developer Options -> Force GPU Rendering
I'm a tinkerer and had turned that on a while back when dinking with the stock settings. I started having freezes, Home Page reloading, slow everything, HORRIBLE power useage, and I was basicly just hating my phone.
I was to the point of thinking about selling it and getting a SGS3 but I went into the settings and saw that was still on, turned it off, and haven't had any problems since.
Obviously this is one of those YMMV type options. I'd say stay away from it.

ive always left force gpu rendering on. Never had a single problem. I keep it on simply because of the transitions seem another. Weird that yours did that. In all honesty i think its pretty standard default setting to be on on asop roms

According to pocket now force gpu rendering is basically used to off load the graphical tasks given to the CPU in apps that aren't optimized for ICS. ICS has this option enabled by default when writing apps for it but with apps written on GB down to cupcake 1.6, gpu rendering when writing apps is off by default.
Basically, leave it on as its probably helping your CPU run older unoptimized apps more efficiently since it doesn't have to process the graphical UI for that app too.

Jittery/Jerky scrolling...

Is anyone having jittery scrolling with their rom?I am running jedi and I didnt clean flash 6.1.1 and dont know if its causing this.
Every scrolling; menus, facebook, xda app, etc. Except stock browser is jerky. When you scroll it doesnt stop smoothly it jitters. Not too much but its definitely there and made me realize it.
I compared it to sgs2 running jellybean and everything is smooth there...
Anyone?
I have noticed the same thing since I installed jedi as well. I noticed it once jedi 6 and the same with 6.1.2

So should I try to clean install jedi again? I so dont wanna do that cuz after I flash roms I do so much tweaking it takes an hour or more to finish.
You have it as well but someone else said on jedi thread that after he clean installed its gone.
Did you clean install the 6.1.2? Or just flashed on top of previous one?
Running CleanRom 3.3 (Chose Perseus kernel when installed) and its silky smooth
Its killing me. I installed jedi 6.1.2 with perseus kernel still jerky. I am running clean rom 3.3 with perseus now and still not smooth. Tried note2core kernel still same. Installed stock 4.1.2 with perseus still laggy.
Only tome I felt less laggy was saber kernel with jedi. However saber only supports fat32. I have 64gb exfat.
This is insane. My old sgs2 with 4.1.2 is buttery smooth.
I cant seem to find the solution to this. This really made me hate this phone. Seems like frame rate is so low tgat it seems jerky when you scroll down or up on settings, facebook, tapatalk or other apps.
When you scroll slow or very fast there is no jerkiness. Its there when you scroll medium speed.
You scroll and it jerks seveal times very shortly until it stops. thats why it looks like frame rate is so low.
Enabled/disabled force 2d, nothing changes. Flashed maybe 10 times yesterday. I always wipe cache and dalvik and factory reset. Flash the rom and do wipe chache/dalvik and factory reset again then reboot.
I cant enjoy this phone anymore since I compared to sgs2 and know this is not normal.

Exactly. Stock browser works buttery smooth and I dont understand why other apps and even phone's settings menu jiggles when you scroll. Its not smooth as stock browser scrolling. I dont understand that.

Ohh I flashed clean rom and jedi so many times over and over again but ni change. However only jedi with saber kernel I was able get smooth setting menu scrolling but apps such as facebook, tapatalk, whats up isnt.
I compared tapatalk side by side with sgs2 running 4.1.2 and even though its not ios smooth its still smoother than note2.
Annoying thing is that nobody seems like aware of it. I cant believe you dont have the same jerkiness. Its just obviously a software issue and everybody running the same rom/roms should have it.

Can you explain then why stock browser is very smooth? and why saber kernel is with jedi makes the android menu scrolling smooth? If everything was bad yes maybe I would suspect something else, also I don't think a hardware can cause jerky scrolling when there are codes in android that can adjust scrolling.
I was using sgs2 for a year and flashed so many roms and kernels, there were huge differences in scrolling physics. Some updates were jerky, some smooth, some fast, some slow.
Everyone's perception is different. I wasn't even aware of it it took me 3 weeks to realize this jerky scrolling. For some of you, you might think this scrolling is smooth but for my standards its not acceptable because I know it can be modified and changed.
I own sgs1, sgs2 since their release dates and know pretty much what a firmware can do to your scrolling....

(Q) CHUNKENESS (LAG) on all roms and stock....why?

I just did a full unroot twice and being on stock seems somewhat smoother and less "chunky" than any of thr custom roms I have tried. All clean installs. I would appreciate any idea why I still have stutters and not fluid motions on anything.

This rom when installed correctly blows stock out of the water. Add the Nova launcher..and tweak the settings...and you will see exactly what I mean.Use the latest TWRP..and wipe correctly...and you won't want to go back to stock...ever.
He has a new update coming soon...which will add even more to it.
No need to go full unroot if you have Triangle away & TWRP

No issues here with any of 3 different roms. What apps are you running or is it like this immediately after flashing? sounds like something is running in the background causing your problem. Is media scan running constantly? Need more info on what is going on in the background to diagnose.

The stock rom is chunky. ..it's full of bloat. ..
Most custom roms are de-bloated already.
Sounds like he had a bad install. ..and flashed a stock rooted rom...

Maybe try to reduce the Animated Scale setting under Settings - Developer Options from 1x to 0.5x or below? Toggle GPU rendering setting in there as well.
I also agree that a lot is dependent on your launcher. Nova is good to compare too *only* if you optimize it's settings to set all to "Faster than light"

I'm on the newest version of CleanRom. I much prefer it to stock. There are a lot of features I can't live without. Still, the price you pay is with scrolling. It's jerky compared to stock, especially when you are slow scrolling. Fast scrolling is not an issue.
Yeah, I don't know what you talking about. I'm running Jedi X6.1.2 and I don't feel a performance difference, but I do have a lot of nice goodies stock doesn't have.
OP should make a video to show people his problem
I experience none of that with jedi or cleanrom

I know what he means. I also started a thread about jerky scrolling. Some people seem to have decent eyes they just dont realize or never seen a fluid scrolling capable samsung rom. My stock browser is buttery smooth even with heavy picture loaded wep pages. However tapatalk and facebook and some apps are super jerky. Even setting menu of phone is very jerky. Unbelievable. They are jerky when u scroll only with medium speed. If you scroll very slow or very fast its smooth.
This is very annoying for me. So I flashed every available rom and kernel and tried every rom/kernel combo. I think I found the solution.
Seems like The problem is caused by cpu governer + rom type. So I tried some stock roms that are very smooth and that are jerky.
I got the best scrolling with note2core kernel and ONLY IF you select iNTERACTIVE governer. Perseus and other kernels only have pegasusq governer. Once I made it interactive they all became super smooth.
If you are running perseus kernel or such u can also test this by selecting "performance" governer. It basically keeps your cpu in highest level. And your scrolling becomes buttery smooth.
It has something to do with cpu levels I guess. With pegasusq there is not much load to trigger higher cpu levels so it uses low levels.
I suggest you to try note2core with interactive governer.

the lag should be enough, i did it on my galaxy s3 i had one that seemed to have alot of micro lag......if they can see it they should replace it. Most likely they will ask you to show them the problem, tell them you have a friend with the note 2 and you dont see any of this on his phone and think that it must be a bad unit. they should just replace it if its within the alotted time. just keep complaining you didnt pay that much money for a device to be as laggy as a last years gen phone and so on blah blah blah.....they should give you a new one.

Looking to kill the lag.

Hey everyone, can I get tips for decemating the lag on this phone. Its really making me consider the HTC One. At this point, the s4 is slower than my nexus 4. Thank you.

What have you done/installed since you got your phone? My phone actually hasn't experienced any noticeable lag at all, not even once since opening the box. And I had three of them - all had zero lag. Of course, I still went and updated it and disabled some stock apps. It's getting better and better. The only issue is the speed at which this phone gets warm performing basic tasks like camera, email, internet. Even sometimes in my pocket with Sync turned off and Sound muted, the phone would get warm by itself. That's funny.

I installed action launcher, removed animations and thats about it. Right now I'm downloading the wicked rom to install, but I don't want to lose all of the samsung features such as, "smart scroll, s beam, multi-window, etc). Would you happen to know if the wicked v2 rom removes any of those?
im tired of the lag too.im on stock rooted with all the gimmics disable , my gf gs3 is alot faster. gallery takes about 2 sec just to open.
hopefully is fixed. had the htc one but battery life on it doesnt compare to gs4 .
If you don't want to be rooted to "kill the lag" go to recovery mode and factory reset and reboot. Do not touch or do anything with the phone for 5 minutes before setting up.
Im stock rooted, running Faux's kernel. I ALWAYS disable animations in Developer options....that alone eliminates much of the lag in any phone. Also, you can disable the S Voice connection to the home button.
Lastly if you want an incredibly ultra fast experience in scrolling and app drawer.... Install Nova...and make sure to make scroll speed "faster than light". You will then see how fast this phone can be when not slowed down by animations. The nice thing about Touchwiz, is that the settings and notification tray look fairly stock JB....so it matches great with Nova.
This S4 is FLYING....so friggin fast, zero lag, great battery life!
Try it out!
Cheers.

[Q] Lag fixed after update?

I had to sell my G3 after about a week because I was having issues with lag. Was this fixed with today's update?
You *had* to sell it because of that? The only lag I notice is on wakeup which isn't that big of deal.
It is significantly improved. And no, it's not just my imagination.

You *had* to sell it because of that? The only lag I notice is on wakeup which isn't that big of deal.

Everything from writing a text to scrolling a webpage was causing the phone to lag.

Why didn't you just exchange it for another one? You must had a defective one. You were within the return period
Everyone complains about this so called lag. The only lag I had ever on this phone was with the keyboard taking forever to load. Fixed that with a factory reset. Starting to think that some folks are having lag due to user settings.
Yeah, I don't know what lag people are talking about here. Butter smooth and no stuttering of any kind since day one.
Me too fast as hell no lag and im underclocked and undervolted
So what does the new update fix? Is performance or battery better?

The lag is horrible . j/k when I leave move tho it does have lag but not as much as before.
BAD ASS G3
It's hard for me to say as the lag went away after I debloated and for rid of carrierIQ, buuuut.... LG did enable 60fps full time from dynamic, and that seems to help people.
I will say, that rooting, changing kernels and getting rid of carrierIQ helped a ton.
The only place I ever had lag was in the app drawer. It is considerably less on the m update, happens rarely now, where it used to happen a lot on C.
I would love to see you guys post some videos of this lag. I'm starting to think it is very much exaggerated in many cases.
When my phone was stock it was not laggy except the keyboard and even that wasnt that bad. Now with animations off and other tweaks it is lightning fast.

Disabling or lowering animations, freezing bloatware, using lighter weight launcher like Nova.
