[Q] New Lag Problem - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

I've been using my Note for a long time without any of the issues I have read about. Until now. This past week there were several updates to applications, including one that allows apps to send things to OneNote, which I had been waiting on for a while.
Then I was using Mazec3 inside NoteAnytime and while I was writing, things just froze up momentarily and my handwriting was all screwed up. I suspected the app, so I switched back to the Samsung pen input, but I had the same issue.
A device reset seemed to fix it mostly, but I have noticed that while playing CandyCrush, I get a momentary freeze.
The original hesitation seemed to be when the device was converting the handwriting to text (or to suggested words) and adding the CandyCrush issue in seems to suggest a bogged down processor.
Has anyone else had this issue and/or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
PNCguy

Mine is doing the same thing. My google keyboard keeps crashing. I uninstalled it and it's been performing a lot better.

Same here. Especially noticeable during video playback. I watch videos all the time on my note and this just started the other day. Thought it had something to do with my SD card, so I put the file on internal memory. Same issues, any ideas?

[Q] netflix choppy since FC

Well hi! I've had my a100 since Christmas and I've been loving it (other than the planner thinking no US cities exist), and until last week I've been using it to watch stuff all the the time on netflix while I'm gaming.
Last weekend I woke up and there was a force close error from the market app. I tried to report it and it said there was no space left on the device. Odd, since my internal and external sd both have a couple gigs free. Ever since then, it's impossible to watch anything on netflix. The sound is fine, but the video is insanely choppy. Barely 3 - 5fps. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling netflix with no effect. My tablet is totally stock. Not even rooted.
Anyone got any suggestions or thoughts on this? I'd really like to get it working again, but I don't even know where to begin. The cause and the symptoms don't make sense together. Is there there some other app I can check updates on that netflix uses for its streaming?
Some things you can try.
1st: Update to the leaked ICS and see if that fixes your problem.
2nd: Backup all your apps into your SD card with Titanium Backup, and then do a factory reset and see if that works.(needs root)

Gallery lag, freezing/crash all of a sudden, previously no problem.

Hi guys,
I have a bone stock Note 2.
Since a couple of days ago, the gallery has been acting really weird. It would lag, freeze, ask to close/wait and even crash. When i zoom into the image, it would jerk and jiter even if my hands are of the screen. The upper part of the phone around the area of the sd card reader and front part fo the screen would become really warm to touch.
This is all of a sudden, mind you. Ive never experienced any lag in the gallery. I use it all the time over wiwfi to send images to my dlna connected devices without a hitch.
I thought my sd card was going back. i replaced the 16gb kinstaon card with a 32gb sandisk, and it hasn't made any difference at all. SAme problem.
The problem is alleviated if i switch wifi off. But ive never had to do that before. I have always hd wifi on and connected all the time with no problem until a few days ago.
I have all sync's off including cloud sync. There should be nothing syncing in the background.
Its not the sd card, it cant be the sd port as it works fine with wifi off... so im at a lost as i have no more ideas on what to trouble shoot.
Im thinking it may have been an update that i did not notice maybe? All share cast is not samsung link... dont know if that would do it...
I do hop ei get some insight to what is going in with my note 2.
Anybody else having similar problems or a solution?
Any and all help is much appreciated.
tried new card,.. same thing.
tried hard reset, and still same thing...
what else can it be?
hardware failure?
Figured it out!!!!
Plex media server was causing it. Once i disabled it on my PC, gallery is working like it should again.

N5X slows down and falsely registers long presses as uptime increases

Hey all!
My N5X is running stock, completely unaltered (not unlocked, not rooted, no custom recovery, etc.).
The longer it goes without rebooting, the slower it gets.
Eventually, it starts registering long-presses when I only push very quickly on the screen, and this comes with a lag of the UI in general.
I also noticed audio would start skipping after a while.
1. Am I the only one noticing this?
2. Do any of you have an idea of what could be causing this? Sounds like a memory leak, either from an app or the system, but I could be wrong.
3. How would you go about troubleshooting this?
Thanks!
We have multiple posts discussing about lags:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/nexus-5x-lag-t3235343
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/snapchat-lag-5x-t3250747
So you are not alone.
I saw things about Snapchat and anything involving a camera in general.
But haven't seen anyone complain of false long-presses yet =(
I've had mine running 2 weeks straight before the OTA, and was surprised (and impressed) that I never had any random reboots or slow down.
Stock, with fairly basic apps - stock google apps and a couple games.
I'm completely with you on this one. Lag central, slow downs, I'm at a reboot every 2-3 days now before it becomes unusable to take pictures.

Stuttering and freezing of some apps. Help!

I just got the Nexus 5X some 2-3 weeks ago. First week or two was smooth sailing after setting up the phone as a brand new phone in the initial setup process. I did not restore a backup from a previous phone.
Since then, I've had occasional freezing of apps like the homescreen freezes momentarily and becomes black and unresponsive only to be back to normal shortly thereafter. Likewise I had freezes with Google Music and Chrome. Today however has been my worst attack of freezing. I am reading some articles on Chrome and the bloody thing freezes like crazy. Scrolling is unresponsive and very rough, the interface becomes unresponsive. Home/Back/Recents buttons become unresponsive. I am not sure if the websites are at fault, they are salon.com and huffingtonpost.com that I am reading. And this issue seems very pronounced and doesn't go away in a short while like before. I still have the problem after like 10-15 minutes. Looks like other apps like Facebook are mostly okay, although I see a occasional slow down there.
I note that I am charging my phone while doing this browsing and I am wondering if the heating up of the phone due to charging is causing issues. Is this what people refer to as lag on this phone? Is there a solution?
EDIT: I used an app called "CPU temp" and saw the temperature to be around 39-40C. Also, I read elsewhere on XDA that the CPU is throttled at around 37C in the default kernel. So could this be why I saw all that lag? Now I don't seem to have any issues with Chrome anymore and I can navigate any page including on Salon.com fairly well although Salon is still a bit laggy on not just this but other phones I have, so their website may also have some issues.

Camera stuter/lag

Hi!...really need some help!
Had phone for 1 year. Generally no performance issues. Over the last month or so, the camera app has started to play up.
1. It takes ages to load
2. The picture stuters/freezes when moving phone in pictures or videos causing delays in snapping and/or jumps in recordings
3. It can no longer focus on things at near distance.
I did a factory restore and think it was okay right after (didn't test it properly). Have since reinstalled most of the same apps and went to use camera today and same issue.
I installed adobe camera app and it works phone so don't think it's a hardware issue. Seems more like something is interfering or maybe a bad update.
Don't want to have to use a seperate app for videos too. Saw some others mention similar issues in the forum though not exactly the same and no resolution (no pun intended). Anyone experienced this and fixed it?
