GT I9082 Lag issues even on 4.1.2 - Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

My phone is about 8 months old and it was working perfectly on 4.1.2. I have triet 4.2.2 but it was kind of laggy and the features werent worth he performance issues. So to the point - my phone has some lag issues (to the point that I have to wipe data factory reset every week or so) which I have noticed that occur when:
1. Downloading apps or just about anything - it stucks in the middle of the download and the phone lags and after a couole of seconds - (5-10) it cintinues the download. I guess the problem is related when writing data...
2. When i listen to music sometimes it takes up to 5 or 10 secknds for a song to play.
3. Random hangs saying "touchwiz isnt responding" or any other app.
4. Sometimes it takes up to 10 seconds for the screen to turn on when the lock button is pressed. Or sometimes it doesnt turn on at all.
This occured when I simply was uploading a photo on instagram and tge gallery app crashed, the whole phone crashed, rebooted it and the issues started (note that when this occured I was on 4.2.2). Could this be a hardware problem ?
Any ideas are welcome, this isnreallt frustrating, please help.

I was able to fix up the issue by clearing Gallery data. Go to Settings --> More --> Application Manager --> All Applications --> Gallery --> ... Here you will see data reported in hunderds of MBs. Press Clear data button and once that is complete, you phone should be back to normal.

[Q] Whatsapp & 1.6.24-MIUI-XJ

Anyone experiencing Whatsapp not working well in 1.6.24-MIUI-XJ?
I always get "Application Whatsapp is not responding" when I try to open or send messages. But if you click Wait a few times, it will manage to move on.
The whole experience is really really slow and laggy.
I have tried giving full permission in the Superuser, disable the superuser permission management but the problem is still there.
Any solutions?
i am getting this too. did u manage to fix it?
I'm having the same problem, it's extremely slow and laggy. Constantly getting the warning whatsapp isn't responding, asking if i want to force close it or wait for respond. I always click on wait and after a half minute it moves on.
after a half hour doing this, whatsapp runs smooth... but its really annoying

make sure your internet connecting is fine.
you can also try flashing the latest MIUI-XJ rom.
re-installed whatsapp completely (remove data, remove app, clean cache, remove map from SD), even did a full wipe of the ROM. but doesn't solve a thing....
my internet connection is fine, other apps which need internet works fine.
So does anyone have any suggestions?
Got that same on 1.12.2 (long waits, "wait more", no push messages).
after reading the MIUI Thread about the whatsapp problems, it seems the most people with MIUI X-part have the problem.
Also when installed whatsapp, I got the warning that custom ROMS are not supported by whatsapp.
I didn't got this warning when i was on the GingerVillian ROM
So is it MIUI X-part? is it the SD card that gives the problem?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18484026&highlight=whatsapp#post18484026
Will try this weekend another SD card and start from scratch, see if it works!
odd.... I was about to try a new SD card but then suddenly, my phone was running whatsapp very smooth.
What did I do? Basicly nothing.. I only stopped using the app UberMusic (still installed on my phone though).
Instead of lagging whatsapp, my entire phone becomes laggy when listening to music and receiving a whatsapp message (happens sometimes, not all the time). My phone doesnt respond to anything, music is played in slow motion. After 5 minutes it recovers it self or goes into a reboot.
at least Whatsapp isn't lagging anymore :')

[Q] Camera crashes

Heya!
Anyone having some camera issues since the 4.4 Update?
Mine crashes and/or freezes randomly when taking photos with the software and hardware buttons. Sometimes the whole phone freezes and won't respond on any touch input. Sometimes lock and unlock it again helps but most times I have to wait a few seconds or use the "OFF"-Buttons.
Any fix for this?

Do a factory reset. I had the exact same issue when I upgraded and I had to do this a few times to get everything working.

Gosh, that sucks :/ Is it at least good to make a backup with the Sony app and then restore it or will this end up with the same error again?

You can try but I usually recommend just starting fresh since it could cause some errors.

if u want better chance not to see these kindda issue u must repair ur firmware by PCC.
factory reset means wiping firmware
but repair by PCC means install fresh firmware
:good:
I've got the same issue. It's actually worst when using SnapChat. It just freezes sometimes. I did a factory reset from the phone and this solved the issues for a day, but now it's back. I'm gonna do a full reset from the computer now and see if this solves it.
I have the same problem with the camera!! Anyone fixed this problem without factory reset?

And it's back. Camera often freezes the whole phone. When I listen to music, and starts snapchat and change from back to front camera, the whole phone freeze and the music stops for almost ten seconds.
Same here, 14.3.A.0.681. Did anyone found a fix?
The camera app opens and works, but at the moment to focus it just stuck on focusing and the photo is never taken.
I experience the same issue. Often, I have to wait for the camera to open, and SnapChat is unusable now. Don't really feel like resetting if people here are reporting that it doesn't fix the issues.
Same issue here. But on 785 (4.4, latest update, german TFT, unlocked BL and root). Camera hangs on every occassion, doesn't make a difference which capture method I use. Tried emptying cache and data for the camera app but that didn't solve anything. I don't want to reinstall my phone because it's a pain in the ass. Problem does not occur with the front camera.
I did find a fix!!!:
Just clear data&cache of the camera app and snapchat (just need to log in again). Now everything works smooth and quick again.
@madlive: weird, for me clearing data&cache fixed all my problems. Maybe try it again?

Having just sold my Z1 (after having .757 installed) and now using a 'spare' Z1 Compact until my Z2 arrives, I wasn't that surprised to notice that the Z1 Compact has exactly the same problems as the Z1.
Wiping, resetting, clearing the cache - all pointless in the long run. Any fix is coincidental. It's a bug that hasn't been completely fixed with .757. The mere fact I've had the same problems on both handsets shows it's the firmware.
If you unlock the phone and start up the camera via the icon, chances are it will work fine.
If you activate the camera from standby, it may fail (the freezing problem, or 'camera not available' error).
What .757 seems to have fixed is the issue where the phone starts to get red hot and then you get the warning that it's too hot to use the camera. I've been taking a lot of photos this last weekend and never had that happen, so at least Sony fixed one thing. I suspect that was down to a series of problems with the media server and creating thumbnails etc, all of which were fixed.
When you have the freezing problem, was the phone locked? In other words; was it locked, but you started the camera via the camera key or dragging up the camera icon? When you tapped power to turn off/on, did you then have to unlock again? If you subsequently unlock - does the camera work fine now?
My hunch is that this is where the problem lies. I've got pattern unlock and now have it set to not lock for 30 minutes. So if I'm taking photos, I unlock the phone and - touch wood - I have no camera issues for that time.
If the phone has locked itself later on, and I don't unlock first, I expect the camera to fail. Yet it doesn't always - but once is still too much. I missed a potentially awesome photo of my two year old son because of this - and it's bloody frustrating. Especially as there's no idea on when we might get another update.
Another problem I noticed on the first KitKat release was the on-screen keyboard appearing over the camera one time. I'd been using the keyboard in another app before firing up the camera using the button, so the camera fault must be down to how it sets itself up when launched - and what you were doing just before (unlock screen, another app) influences the likelihood of it crashing.
In any case, it's a pain.
But on the plus side, the quality of the photos I got over the weekend - mostly in manual landscape mode - are stunning. The phone is capturing a level of detail that is exceptional now. And auto mode is now generally pretty good too, suggesting it doesn't just bump up the ISO all the time.
Same bug here!

I'm having the same problem here. Does Sony is aware of this bug?
Does anyone know of a link where we can complain about it to the manufacturer?
I thought that something was wrong/broken with my phone, but then, after seeing your posts, it isn't... So no factory reset... Just wait for an update? even 3rd party apps seem to crash, expecially the google camera... Wth
I'm getting the same problem since the stock 4.4.2 update, battery life doesn't seem as good anymore either, but i'm always near a charger so the new Camera bugs are the most annoying.
You can't exactly "catch a moment" by whipping your camera out anymore, most of the time I'm waiting about 5-10 secs for the picture to appear ready to take a pic, especially noticeable on Snapchat or when switching from front-face to rear.
I woudn't mind but being on Stock Firmware I'm always waiting longer for Android updates, supposedly because of the extra rigorous testing etc!
bump !
it appears accessing camera from different locations (lockscreen shortcuts ...) confuses the mecanism, this added to some flashlight app and you're good to have the reboot-proof camera FC problem... pffff
Possible Fix!
*** possible fix! ***
I read this on another forum and for about 5 days now my camera has been behaving completely normal across all apps!
Little warning - for me this logged me out of some apps, and caused me to have to put some widgets back on - it almost behaved like clearing the cache when you're rooted, no data lost just a some apps liked twitter etc were acting like they were installed for the first time...
The method is to boot into safe mode once, then just power the phone off and boot as normal:
Hold down your power button
In the menu hold down the "Power Off" option and say OK to safe mode
Once you're in safe mode, turn the phone off
Turn the phone on again, it will boot as normal
Camera just now behave as normal!
Not only has it worked for me so far, but my whole phone seems a bit faster.
Good luck!
Yes have faced that issue with camera, just like my friend warned me :/ freezing, when clicking
Factory reset didn't do much good

Major lag issues after system crash, barely usable

I have major lag issues when pressing the phone screen (the screen turns on sometimes 5 to 10 seconds after pressing the lock or home button), and the UI is very laggy at all times, apps like the keyboard sometimes take about 5-8 to load, and the gallery app takes sometimes as long as a minute to load.
The reason for the problem:
The problem started when I was trying to up a pic on instagram and then I opened the gallery to choose a picture, the phone lagged, thought this was something usual, waited for 1-2 mins, but the gallery app didn't load at all, the screen was black so I said what the heck, maybe a random hang, just tried to restard - phone did not respond so I removed the battery and after that the phone had major lag issues, before that I did not have any problem at all. This happened on stock android 4.2.2...
Here is what I did
I flashed stock 4.2.2, did everything as usual. wiped data after flashing and the phone was still laggy as f, I reverted to 4.1.2 which was smooth as butter and it lagged also... Now I flashed 4.2.2 a couple of times and the problem still persists. Thinking of getting it checked at the customer care centre, but before this happens I'd like to try to fix it on my own.
Any ideas, anyone ?

Tried it, lag still persists, this could be a hardware problem, as I mentiooned above the big lag issues started after the crash / black screen lag happened, so I am assuming something could have went wrong in the hardware part of the phone,softwarewise there should not be any lag, because Ive triet 4.1.2 and its completely lagless, now it lags like a mofo.
Thinking of brnging it to the customer care service, good thing the phone is still in warranty.
Dunno about the blackscreen but try using LagFix (it's on GPlay).
That app helped to me solve hanging issue I had.

razer freezing

2-3 times the phone has totally freezed for me so I had to restart it, same on my brother's razer. Anyone else having this problem.
I've had a few random freezes too. Mostly while in the Facebook app. Although all buttons became unresponsive.

Facebook isn't exactly the most stable right now. If I try to use the market page, guaranteed to freeze up and crash.
Happened to me today as well. Google framework supposedly crashed which caused a system wide freeze. Had to reboot the phone.
I couldn't say I've seen it freezing on me however it has randomly rebooted a few time so maybe have not seen it freeze up but when I went back to it the phone had restarted itself.
My Razer phone freezes 1-2 times a day. Sometimes I'm using the phone, and it gets unresponsive except for the lock-button, but I can never unlock the phone after that. Sometimes it just wont unlock.
Every time this happens I have to restart the phone.
I've had a couple random restarts as well..
After getting such a freeze it would be cool if you could go to Settings->Developer Settings->get bug report->Full bug report.
That will generate a zip which can be used for debugging. If someone uploads it, I can take a look.
After the latest update my phone will randomly lock up. The screen will go blank and the phone will just turn off. Yeah..
I have 2 issues I can't pin down that might be related:
1. Roughly 1 in 4 times I launch anything on Netflix (I only watch downloaded offline stuff), the phone will freeze and then instantly reboot. I'm not sure what causes it to make it reproducible, but after the reboot it's always fine. Haven't had issue with vlc.
2. So today I noticed more than usual the sound in the headphones (attached via the jack dongle) cutting out. Previous fix was to pull out dongle and reinsert and it was fine. This time no joy, in fact moving the dongle while the sound was working resulted in crazy distortion and when I tried to reboot I got a freeze.
In both cases the dongle might have been the culprit. Would be interested to see if others are freezing while using a dongle or not.
I have issues with IG freezing up pretty hard.
I have the same Netflix issue than you and it's very frustrating. The only thing that seems to slow this phone down is the thing it specialises in.. Netflix hdr hmmmm

Has anyone experiencing the unresponsive screen / freezing problems with the Razer phone (first phone) found a solution that prevents the freezing from recurring?
Rebooting the phone via the Volume up + Power buttons will restart the phone, but that is not a fix of the core issue.

Camera cannot be started

After about 1,5 weeks of usage, the camera cannot be started anymore since a few hours.
Rebooted a few times already. There is a popup stating that the "camera could not be started, either reboot or restart the camera".
It worked a few hours ago and since then nothing happened with the phone.
I cleared the cache of the "camera" app and made a fresh start. Other camera apps also do not work.
What happened? :/
EDIT: I did a factory reset and the camera is working again...
Just out of curiosity what build were you on when this happened. I only noticed the problem after I updated to the latest update version ending in .225.
The only way I was able to fix it was by powering off the phone and then powering it back on because clearing the cache/restarting it didn't work. It worked fine for a while after the first power off but then it started giving me the same error after a few hours. So now I powered off a second time and it's been about 12 hours since and so far no issues....
Next time, take a bug report from developer settings, and post it in their official forum.
Had the same problem twice in the first week of the phone, looks like hang after U use the super slowmo and dont close the app. at least was both times after using the slowmo and just locking the phone
Just started getting this error in the last few days. Most of the time a reboot fixes the issue. Sometimes it takes several reboots. BTW, I did the most recent software update a couple weeks ago.
Had the same issue, it also causes a battery drain.
The app BetterBatteryStats showed a 100% kernel wakelocks of the process "Sony,camera_modules".
My battery drained from 100 to 40% in 4 hours with just 10 minute screentime.
I've expierenced camera cannot be started error now 8 times, rebooting temporary solves the problem...
Hopefully a OTA update will solve this problem.
Hi, i have the same problem with latest .225 built
Camera works but black screen, and after 3 or 4 times crashed.
The only fix is wait an update by sony??
Me too. Same problem. I had to Factory reset. It pissed me off....
Now sometimes it appears but i reboot and then goes back .
I confirm i have the same problem with the latest firmware but i have it one time with an old one to. For me it's happens when i close the camera app while i have the phone on horizontal. Some time to recover i just open the camera with the phone horizontally but sometimes i need to clear data and restart the phone to make it work again XD
Maybe the wrong thread, but is there a way to take motion photos (like in gcam) on the XZ2 Compact?
