My battery has been dropping pretty quick running cm9a4 and fe22 cwm and kernel. When I go into battery stats it says media server is using up most battery. It was at 81% for media server. Forgive me if this has been brought up before but I need quick help as im out and dont have time to search and the xda app isnt ideal for searching..

unfortunately it seems to be android and related to playing games and streaming music.. there are a few work arounds but they are irritating and require to either force close or take your media files off or reboot phone and not run any media unless you do one of hese after.. is this just not widespread enough for nobody to really answer this question? i remember the android os bug being squashed.. why not the mediaserver bug sucking up peoples batterys? no permafix's out there?

Not being able to play games or music would suck big time. Have you tried an app called battery stats to see what else could be draining your battery? Have you tried a stock rom and see if the same thing happens?

I've noticed when I play another movie first (making sure that it doesnt lag) for a few minutes then play Avengers afterwards, then it doesnt lag.
I'm completely stock as well and having lag, also I can't get the pop up video feature to work with this movie

I've turned sync off. Airplane mode. Cleared cache. Killed all tasks and it still lags! Crazy crazy. Because I couldn't watch it I ended up renting it on vudu. Great movie. First time ever watched it.

I think a lot of people have been getting bad downloads. It took me 7 downloads to get the one that doesn't lag.
I downloaded from, hub but I don't know where it downloaded to. I would like to move it to my ext sd card unless it's already there. Also mine lags too wifi on.

Thats weird, mine plays just fine, downloaded it once from the hub and has played flawlessly, even if i skip to different parts of the movie. My phone is completely stock.
Turn wifi on fixed lag for me strange

Media hub downloads to the internal sd and in order to see it you need to enable to view hidden folders
the folder name will be
.SamsungMediaHub
there will be a series of folders but the file will be a pyv file type.
My take on laggy video play is if it's HD or if it's SD. In my opinion the phone has a big screen but it's not big enough to distinguish between SD and HD. The phone has to struggle a little bit more to be able to play a video file that's HD and nearly 3GB (my computer even struggled with that let alone a phone)
The SD version is about 1.7 or 1.8 gb and I haven't had any lag issues on my phone while watching it.
That's all personal opinion and your entitled to shoot it down but it's all sensible

How do you enable the option to see hidden folders? Can it be done through root explorer. Also I downloaded both hd and sd but it doesn't give the option to pick which one to play so I assume it's hd playing since it's lagging.

So I have been trying to play GTA III lately. I notice some lag in my play sometimes it will completely STOP until it catches up. It's quite annoying. Now I would think that our SII could handle such a task. I have it over clocked with SetCPU. I have it in airplane mode. And clear other apps out of memory before I start playing. Are there any other gaming tweaks / mods I could utilize I'm not aware of. I've run other games like Dead Trigger, BIA 2, Skies of Glory with no issue. This just lags and sticks ALOT.. Thanks!

What ROM or kernel? Also, if you had the game, then clean flashed, it might not delete the extra game files you downloaded. This causes issues with the game when you reinstall. Try deleting the app, reinstalling clean, and redownloading the files.

I'm running the legendary Darkside Evolution version 8 with TDJ'S kernel. (Should have included this duh ) I've never flashed over this game. First time install. Thanks for the input!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I'm on Paranoid Android and not overclocking and I've played GTA3 for hours today with not one hiccup. It's awesome. With CM10 and other Roms I've used, different kernels and overclocking it worked great but it had it's occasional lag.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
I think that if you were running TDJ's rom/kernel, it would be sufficient to run GTA 3 smoothly. However, still try different rom/kernel combos.
Last time I was playing GTA 3 was when I had AOKP ICS MS4/TDJ's AOKP kernel and i never lagged.
***Also, try switching governors/schedulers to Smartassv2/sio. or to go even extreme performance/sio and see if it still lags. And play around with different combos.
The thing is that he has the best possible ROM to play this game on. TDJs kernel actually has the GPU overclocked. There's something screwing up your installation. If I were you I'd titanium back up your apps and make a clean reinstall of your evo 8 installation. I guarantee you that would fix it.

Thanks for all the help! I'll look into doing these. I used an Aroma installer call. "pimp my rom", maybe it made modifications to TDJ'S Rom in the negative...

Gaming performance has increased for me and my users a lot after flashing this. It also comes with a bunch of other tweaks to. I use it in my Rom
So, is there a lot of difference in this and the pimp my rom mod? Just curious. And also should I perform a fresh flash before I install this rather than installing it on top of the pimp my rom mod?

Nope my rom uses both. When you flash the supremacy script it deletes any tweaks from pimp my rom that might interfere with its own.
So you don't have to "de-pimp" your rom.
Just on off topic question. When I play GTA, I use tilt mode, but it always swerves to the right, and when I put my phone straight up, it turns straight. I was wondering if anyone has a solution to this? I'm sure many people have experienced it and I haven't found a solution through Google search. MIUI 4.1 with h0tcakez 2.3.3.

Calibrate your sensor
It happens a lot on the xda app, and noticing it alot on instagram. I see no data activity for 10 seconds then it will animate and data will load whatever im browsing. Dont use facebook or twitter. Infact I never used instagram till yesterday and its doing same thing as xda, which is what I browse with the most. I thought it was just the xda site but I guess not. My wife hasnt noticed it in hers but i will be trying her phone out now that I know its the phone.
Surprised I havent found other complaing. Maybe I need to swap this thing out

I am wondering if it's a modem issue. Any ideas if we have any other modems and can we flash modems from the first Note? I saw dagr8's thread on modems but no Att modems available to download.
