I wouldn't start this topic if it slowed down for 10 seconds after restart, but it is almost 60 seconds. Everything on the phone is stock, everything was downloaded from Google Play, which are famous games so nothing suspicious.
I didn't restart my phone many times, only 3 or 4 times now since I got the device but this looks like something new. I'd appreciate your comments, thanks.
Update: Let me tell you more about how it gets slowed down after restart. My phone runs jelly bean really fast and it is really smooth. However when it gets like this, it is like a galaxy s3 with a bad 4.1.1 jelly bean update installed on, if you know what I mean. FPS drops between transitions, that kind of stuff. This lasts for 55-60 seconds and it is fast and smooth again.
Have you put a new microsd card in it...if so...what speed....it may be something to do with that. Also...to speed things up, got to settings, find developer options (near the bottom), and turn off the screen and transition animations.....it will most certainly speed things up a bit.

Hey there, thanks for your response. I'm using a class 10 sd card and I'm not having any problems with the speed after that 55-60 seconds following the restart. The thing I actually wanna know is whether this is normal or not. If not, I'd consider formatting my phone.
Im all stock (rooted with notif icons mod) and i dont have that problems mate... If that helps ..

Well, I remember restarting my phone when it was like brand new and as far as I remember, I too didn't have this problem at that time. Seems like I'll format my phone. Thanks.
Isn't it the media scanner that does that

What is your sdcard format? Try formating your sdcard to FAT32 or other things, or just try all the formats.
Do you have a lot of pictures? It's probably media scanner doing its thing like was said above, which is normal.

I got my phone last monday and today my phone was lagging while swipping through home screens, app drawer and even in settings. It was like project butter was shutdown and I was back to the epic 4g. Thought kind strange giving the specs on this phone.. I have stock jb and no root.
After a restart everything went back to normal.
Just curious, does this happen to everyone here? Is this normal to happen after 2-3 days of use?

You must not be actually closing apps just hitting home I assume but if not then idk the problem
Sent from my SPH-L900
Yes I did close them... I even tried force closing all. Not sure why the phone was struggling a little.
you didn't enable power saving mode by any chance?
also, android should be fairly good at managing your memory. i believe google doesn't really recommend task killers because whenever you kill tasks that the OS needs, it'll just reload it, which itself consumes resources (maybe more resource than letting the process simply idle). so just leave those processes alone.
Are you running SetCPU? Make sure it didn't accidentally severely under clock you. That happened to me once and SETCPU was running me at 200 mhz for some reason.

I would double check on all the apps you've previously installed. I'm still on stock JB unrooted as well since released day (Oct 25), not once I've experience any lag that yours producing. Heck I've loaded a bunch of games and apps now my main storage is down to a gig, even then I haven't noticed any slow down. This phone is a beast thats all I can say.

Yeah, thats unfortunate because if anything the phone should speed up after a few days of use. Why don't you just keep it to the 1 thread you started in the GT 7100 forum? You already got 4 pages of responses there. And post a video of what you're talking about because the phone should not lag at all with power savings off.

I didn't strat a thread there... just replied to one and it was a different are of problem anyway..
Guys.. I didn't install any task killer, I just force off using that long pressing home button and going into running apps, the phone, no power saving mode on, still unrooted and very few apps. I use Android for 3 years and I looked all the places to make sure settings would not be causing this and it was not.
Really weird problem... it's fine now I just hope it keeps running this way by tomorrow.. I'll let you all know, if anything I'll make a video if I can reproduce.

Don't close the apps down just back out of them because you'll lag more when your phone sits there trying to open them all up again and cache them. But I agree its a strange problem, if this occurs againit might be something very specific.

That's strange. Yeah I would pay close attention to the problem and if it do come back, then maybe you probably have a bad note II. You never know, not everything are created equal. In that case I would take it in for a repair person to check it out.
Is there a way to know if all cores are running on stock Android?
I've also seen some sick battery life in this phone, but not on mine. Yesterday I got 12 hours with about 3 1/2 of screen, with few and short phone calls. What I used the most on this phone was the internet and the browser..
Not sure if these are related.
EDIT.... I installed CPU usage Monitoring and the 4th core stays off most of the time.. when I opened videos and messed with more apps it started working so I'm answering myself on that. Also, I played a video with the pop up function and the cpu only gets to about 30% and not even on all cores... wow.. the processing power here is really impressive.

Even though I would never use a phone like that, still very impressive...
I had this problem before a few weeks ago, but a full boot.img stock reversion fixed things and I unrooted (then re-rooted) and installed the PACman ROM with the AK Kernel. Everything was fine until a few weeks later it started to lag really bad again. I'm talking the screen would hang for 5-10 seconds or just freeze completely. Earlier today I had to pull my battery about 3 times because of the freezes. I tried to install a new kernel a week ago, but that made it worse.
Why does it keep doing thing. I love the custom ROMs and the kernel tweaks, but I won't be able to use them if I go to stock...

You interpreted the symptoms yourself rather than just report the issue and what software combination is resulting in the issue. Its lagging but why is it lagging? "Lag" isn't a symptom its a result of something else going on deeper down.

I'm sorry, man. I didn't realize I had to report the issues exactly as I know them. I totally wouldn't resolve the problem myself if I knew what it was.
I guess you missed the part where I asked what software combination might be causing it.
Diagnosing problems you don't understand is exactly the kind of thing that makes it impossible to help someone. The phone may be right in front of you and you may know what you did but so far all you've done is tell us that:
1. Your phone lags
2. You tried a different kernel
3. You've pulled the battery
Not much to work with is it?
What CPU settings are you using?
What superuser apps?
Etc.
How much free space is on your phone? How about ram usage?

I don't know. Turning the phone on takes about 3 seconds, same with turning it off. After unlocking, it hangs for about 4 seconds. Opening Chrome takes 5-10 seconds. Pressing the home button while on any app takes 5 seconds before it gives a response.
Don't say those are regular waiting times either, before I had these problems, things would appear at the touch of a button.
I also forgot to mention that a fresh ROM install doesn't help.

"Fresh ROM install" as in you're just wiping cache and data then reinstalling?

I think that space is an issue. I've read that once you get below 3 or 4 gigs free, the lag begins. Supposedly, on any disk, you should keep about 20% free, which for a 16gb gnex is 3.2gig.
Edit: isn't 180ghz min pretty low? I've seen 384 as a min suggested if lagging is an issue. And i think you mean mhz.

This is why they shouldn't have gotten rid of SD cards...
I'll see if clearing out my HDD space does anything. I've had it that full for quite some time though...
I'll see if putting 384 as min fizes it.
Your device also might not be able to handle 1.4 GHz oc. While its originally a 1.5ghz processor mild imperfections in the manufacturing process result in it being sold as a (guaranteed safe at) 1.2ghz processor.
What that means is that not every phone will handle the same speeds, voltages etc. You should try running at stock speeds for testing purposes.
I have this same issue, I've tried a number of different ROMs and kernals. They all start out great, then after about a month my phone starts to get random lag, then as time goes on it gets worse and worse until I bite the bullet and start over again
Hi,
History:
I have a problem with my Nexus. It randomly reboots. Nothing seems to help.
It started after a few months after I was rooted on CyanogenMod 10.0. In 3 days, it quickly escalated to a reboot every 10 minutes on average.
A factory reset (without user apps installed on it) on CynogenMod reduced the frequency (every hour?), but didn't eliminate it.
Unrooting to stock Jellybean 4.1.2 seemed fine only in the first week. The problem came back afterwards, and updating to JB 4.2.1 didn't help.
Now, 2 months on stock ROM, I get even more random times. Sometimes it is 2 times a day, sometimes once a week.
Just before it:
I get a metallic screeching noise for 1-2 seconds, and immediately following that, device turns off with a "pang". Although these days I HAVE had situations that the sound came for up to 3 seconds (and the screen freezes), but the phone worked normally afterwards.
What happens:
It randomly reboots. The rebooting is at irregular intervals, whatever i was doing on it (even when not using it).
What happens after:
It takes much, much longer to startup again. It can get stuck at the "Google" logo screen for up to 5min. It doesn't take this long to reboot if I shut it down myself.
Any ideas? What causes this? Is it software or hardware?
Can I even send it for warranty if I cannot reproduce the problem?
I don't want to send it to warranty if I don't have to. I don't want to loose my phone for I don't know how long.
Hi, what's your eMMC version? Maybe buggy memory, try looking at other threads.

I'm new to this eMMC thing, but according to an app my eMMC Type is V3U00M. To check whether it is buggy or not it needs root, which I don't currently have. If it IS buggy, I don't have a choice but to bring it for warranty right?
No, I have not tried to changed batteries. I don't have other batteries. But can the problem really lie with the battery? Btw, my phone is less than 8 months old.

Well, I am planning to root again. I want to switch back to CyanogenMod 10.1. Lagfix app isn't needed if you can use -discard mount option right? How to use either, if let's say I'm on CyanogenMod. This is also the first time I hear of lagfix and discard mount... :/
Btw, the app i used to check my eMMC Type said that my chip is ok. No brickbug. Are you sure it's buggy?

I might be wrong here, but from what I've read at the link and other xda posts (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029246), the V3U00M chip is not buggy (in the sense that it's stable for rooting and using the -discard command), but it does give slowdowns. I do have horrible slowdowns, so thanks for that solution I didn't know existed. However, this doesn't solve my random reboot problem at all...
No one else got any solid way to find out the source of the problem?

Same as you man...
I'm seriously considering throwing my phone to the garbage. I don't like iPhones, but google is really pushing me into it with this crappy piece of phone. Is so frustrating to have these rebooting issues, I've tried everything, from wipe to factory reset, back to stock, flash custom ROMS and KERNELS, turning location access off, uninstalling all apps/widgets that might interfere, and every single "solution" it's out there, and STILL I'M HAVING THESE DAMN REBOOTS!
Now it's even worse, I can't even transfer files to my phone anymore because, guess what... IT REBOOTS! everytime I transfer ANY KIND of file.
The only thing that seems to work for a while is reformatting and start from scratch. I've done that like 3 times already. But still after a few weeks the issue reapears... i'm really mad about this, and no one seems to care. Not Google and not even Samsung.
The only interesting thing that i found around the internet is this guy's findings
plus.google.com/113601948978986762347/posts/2ALASEC1dG2
I read the log on my phone and matches to his... but now the thing is, what do i do with this information? I'm not a programmer o something like that.
Any ideas?
I think your board is faulty. Even so, have you tried disabling SR and raising voltages across the board? Trimming eMMC? Omapflash?

He is saying that you have root you need to install trickster mod from the play store. Open the app and go to specific. Then disable the smart reflex toggles and click the oké button in the upper right corner see if that works. If it doesnt re enable smart reflex and go tot MPU voltages. Next to the words MPU voltages there is a blue plus/minus button. Click that and click the plus one time. Accept it and push again the oke button. The other two things I dont exactly know..

Honestly, if you are getting reboots on a clean stock (including stock kernel) , it's probably a hardware issue.

The thing is that after a clean stock install everything works fine for a week or two, that means no random reboots, and i can transfer any kind of file of any size with no problem. Then for some estrange reason (even with no crazy apps installed) starts with a random reboot, after that first reboot i know is time and that i wont be able to transfer files anymore, because it WILL reboot while i'm transfering files. Other thing i have noticed is that around where the camera lens is, get really hot. So I think that the reason it reboots is kernel panic caused by overheating, or the other thing is that my sdcard have some issues when writing files.
Right now i'm using CyanogenMod 10.0.0-maguro with jelly bean 4.1.2 and franco.kernel 3.0.51-nightly-512GPU and i have already tried going back to stock.
how can a I check if my hardware is fine? Is there any app out there?

512GPU? You mean your GPU is overclocked? Maybe try to set your GPU to stock. And if it gets really hot and you have random reboots you can try to over volt with trickster mod.

No, I don't think my GPU is overclocked, that's the full name of the kernel, you say that the kernel automatically puts my GPU to 512?. Anyways i just installed that kernel two days ago just because i thought it might make the reboots go away. I'm having rebooting problems since february (just after upgrading to 4.2.1), so i don't think that the GPU is causing the reboots.

I finally rooted it yesterday and it now is very unresponsive at times. It will get to the point where it's frozen for about 30 seconds before it does anything. I flushed the caches and did a reset, same thing. So I flashed Jedi ROM on it. It's a little better but still has moments where ti freezes for a time. Is there a fix for this?
Rooting does absolutely nothing to the performance of the device. Its comparable to giving yourself admin rights on a windows computer. No performance change just extra features. Might want to check any apps that you installed after rooting
I did not install anything after root.
It works smooth as silk with the stylus. Possible sensitivity adjustment?
Maybe the sdcard needs to be reformatted?

ROOT will not brake the phone or cause lag. it changes nothing internally except rights to your phone. no tweaks or files deleted. I can see it being something with the screen since you say the pen works great and using your finger I assume it micro stutters. but even the freezing for 30 sec does not sound screen related. I would wipe and format data, and then try another Rom. I used jedi from the first build all they up to 15 and it ran like a champ. its something you are doing, or have not undone yet.
I would suggest clearing caches. Its got nothing to do with rooting, but neither does rooting have to do with lag.
It sounds like an app was restored with data.

no apps were restored either. When I flashed the new ROM I cleared every cache I could see listed and wiped it clean. All I can think of is the old stuff on the sdcard is causing issues so tomorrow I will reformat it and reset again.
Well then, the only thing I can think of is you flashed an incorrect kernel. What exactly did you flash?
Used the root tool from http://galaxynote2root.com. Odin and cwm6-root-note2.tar.
It still had the bad lag and freezing after I un-rooted it and restored the original ROM.
I have since flashed Jedi, didn't like it and now am on NOTEorious Prime.
What I have noticed is that the lag and freezing go away when I am connected to a wireless network. Maybe it screwed up my modem?
And have you verified the APN settings as being correct ?
Or they may simply be mixed up by default..
It may be set on ATT LTE.....instead of ATT PHONE for example...
Both will work...but one will drop the network speed by about 70%...
Just a thought....g

Perhaps a factory reset from within recovery --- to make all settings default. By now there's a lot of stuff floating around in there.
Why would the original root change the APN settings.
I have factory reset several times. Even with the factory image applied fresh, it still freezes. The weird thing is, it responds just fine to the stylus.
I am at the point where I restore the stock ROM again and take it to ATT to see if they will swap it out.
Thanks for the help, keep the ideas coming..
Flashing a custom rom or recovery or kernel voids your warranty. Please don't tell us about plans to return the phone to at&t. The phone worked as expected before you began flashing.
It's not the radio or wireless either. It works perfect with the stylus but seems like it doesn't detect my finger to operate normally. Does Samsung have a tool to reset the display sensitivity?
There is a dial code for the touch screen. I don't know it, but I've found those codes by googling 'android secret note 2 dialer codes' or something like that.
Looks like I have it fixed.. It's working right since I followed the instructions here http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/39423/galaxy-note-10-1-does-not-recognize-finger-touch
I had installed swiftkey so I removed that and tried swype beta and it's all good now.
I restored everything back to stock and it is still having problems. The screen is unusable with my finger, I have to use the S Pen for everything.
Would reloading the stock ROM with kies be different than using Odin? Does Samsung put some key piece of code in the areas that get changed with rooting?
I am at a loss..

On the test screen, I have to tap screen many times until it finally registers. Then I drag my finger around for about 30 seconds before it starts picking up and filling in the boxes. It will finally let me fill in all the boxes and say it passes but it takes a lot of effort.

Yeah it's not suppose to be that difficult honestly. Something is defiantly wrong!!
Me personally if you bought the phone from an AT&T store! I'd reborn it for a replacement! And if it's not used from someone off the street. Then I'll put it back to fully stock, reset flash counter. Then return and replace at one of there local service centers. Especially if it's giving that much problems as it sounds to be doing. Seems as if the screen has some hardware issues inside...
