Hey XDAers,
I am having an issue with DN3, I installed it on my N7100a week ago and I find it nice. Only problem is that the phone is slow, menus, apps and I even have an issue with Hill climb racing which is a simple game, there is like half a second between when i tap the screen and when the game reacts. Maybe I a missing something ? I think I will change ROM is I don't find an answer to that problem... Thanks everyone

I also have those kind of stutters and laggs with DN rom idk if its from the rom but never had any problems with the other roms, mine phone run as fast as Note 3 or S5. Try changing the rom with other and see the results after one week or wipe cache and dalvik and see if there is any improvement.

What he said; that ROM is known to be laggy and buggy due to all the mods added into it. Respect to its devs though.

i flashed that kernel just last week, and yeah at first its laggy but when i think the engine heats up it will boost your phone, i also complained about laggyness to yewsiong since he was the one who got the tutorial for flashing a kernel, i even ask him how to revert my kernel back to normal, but after a few hours i tried again and its smooth, it lags a bit but not as laggy as the stock kernel. maybe there are some apps or you put too much on your phone memory that causes the lag.

hello guys,
i've been successfully flashed my kernel this morning, from cow kernel into the xxlm8 kernel. But i got a same problem like fayosi said, this kernel makes my phone run very laggy. I'm not very shock with this condition coz i've already read this thread before, and referring to the kemaro30 explanation above, it will laggy in the beginning. So i let my phone and wait with very patience.
But now, it's almost 6 hours since i flashed this kernel but still no improvement progress in my phone performance. Still very laggy
how long should i wait?? or, should i re-flashed my kernel?? any ideas or solution maybe..??
thanks n regards

maybe you should check your cpu or use some application that can tweak your phones performance,, btw i use ram manger pro and always set to balanced. i also use advanced task manager to autokill apps that the phone really doesn't need.. and i use stock rom, never tried on other rom. and one more thing, i think my phone took about a day or more than 24hrs before i notice that its not laggy anymore.
here's what i experienced before to let you know http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26780650&postcount=53

Hi guys, first thanks for your some ideas n solutions to me.
And after read both of comments above, i think i know what is cause this problem.
I found that i was using the powersafe governor as my main governor, really my bad at all !!!
Now, with ondemand governor it runs very smooth with no lag, and tomorrow i will give my review about this kernel.
Once again, many thanks for your help guys :thumbup:

Hi all,
I'd usually always had average speeds in scrolling through menus etc. on my Arc S. Then I installed Nova Launcher a few months ago which made it lightning fast!
But recently, it's become painfully slow to the point of being unusable. I've installed several new games and apps lately, and I know that I could uninstall them one by one and see if that's causing the problem, but I'd rather not go through that and lose my data - especially if the cause is something else.
Is there a menu option somewhere that shows me what all the processing power is being spent on? In a similar way to the battery drain screen? I also notice that my Arc S will start chugging, and stutter several times, whenever I'm playing games. It'll have every minute or two, stutter around three times for about five seconds, then go back to normal.
But menu screens are painfully slow. Does any have any ideas? Is there a cache I can clear too? I'm rooted and on the latest ICS ROM.
Thanks in advance,

Itll be best for you to install a custom rom stripped of all bloatware (the useless programs that use up all tie processing power) and with speed tweaks apps such as "root cleaner" and "seeder" are also very useful apps to speed up your phone good luck!

It runs ok for some time...and then becomes slow like other ics rom...quite sure of what I'm saying ! I've tryed a lot of ics rom( From August 2012 until today some day ago! xD)...I'm not saying that your rom is ****...but the best rom for the Arc's hardware is GingerBread....
Try CM10. Your quadrant and AnTuTu scores will falter but don't let that bother you. It made my phone much more usable and not to mention quicker! Make sure you OC your Arc to 1.6Ghz and turn on 16bit transparency.
The thing I do, use titanium backup to backup everything then factory reset...thereafter it may feel faster n new

Don't OC. Unless you want to get rid of the phone ASAP.
Thanks for all the suggestions - I actually went through all the apps I'd installed lately and removed a few to see if it would help. Strangely, it was Canabalt HD which seemed to be causing the problems. I uninstalled it, and it's back to normal. I reinstalled it again to see if it would slow down, and it did.
I think that game uses OpenFeint, so I don't know if that's anything to do with it. I may install CM at some point but right now I'm happy with the latest, rooted stock (and besides, I can upgrade in two months and might get the Xperia Z).
Thanks again!
Mine's been overclocked to 1.6Ghz for a year now and I haven't faced any issues so far.
Hello guys,
First i want to apologize for my bad english. I hope you can understand some of my words
My problem : i really like my note 2 and i had a s3 before, but sometimes my phone ist really laggy.
I tried everything and it is still not smooth. The animation when i open an app or closing by pressing the homebutton is not always, but often laggy.
This is really annoying , because i tested the note 2 in the shop and it feels really smooth.
First my phone runs smooth at all, but after a month it starts to lag. After a fullwipe and custom rom and kernel the problem is still there. I tried over 40 roms and with every Kernel. Can you help me to solve my problem and make my phone smooth as the nexus 4 or galaxy nexus?
Best regards from germany

Hi,
I must say that if you've tried multiple roms and kernels, and wiping it every time, then it must be a hardware fault. I have only flashed my device once, it's stock, and it's very smooth almost every since moment of every single day. This device is VERY powerful. It shouldn't lag, especially not after a recent format. Is it possible you've killed something in it by accident? Dropped it? Kicked it? Liquid in it? Something short-circuiting?
It just seems strange that a newly formatted device would lag. Have you tried stock?

Hi, this is a warning. My Note 2 started to become laggy just before it suddenly died from Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS)
A Note 2 is one of the most powerful devices on the market and it SHOULD NOT LAG UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES and mine never did, until the week it died.

Everything is working well and i never dropped my phone. I don't think, that this is a hardware fault because i had these lags with my S3 too. And most of my friends have a s3 too and i can see these laggs too. I am searching for a mod or app, which makes my Phone smoother. I've tried seeder, no different.
But thank you for your answer!
I have checked my chip with the app emmc brick bug check and it says that i got the sane chip with no sudden death. I should be safe.
Try rubbing some butter on your phone, that should make it smooth!
Or you could go Aosp.

I have both an S3 in my house and a Note 2 (my personal device), what are you doing and I can tell you if I'm getting any lag doing something. Because the S3 doesn't lag too much. Its only fault in my opinion is the lack for the extra gig of ram, but to do every day activities + gaming, it's a great device. The Note 2 hasn't lagged on me yet :s. I mean, come on! 4 cores and 2 gb of ram.
So, let us know what you're doing and how to reproduce the lag and I'd be more than happy to check it out with you. But I seriously think there is something wrong with your device if it lags on EVERY rom and EVERY kernel. That shouldn't happen.
Gaming, scrolle through the homescreens are very smooth. But when i open an app and press the homebutton, then the animation is very laggy. Most of the time my note is smooth , but only the animation while opening and closing apps is very laggy.
Yes i tried aosp and it is perfectly smooth, but the Touchwiz features and the s pen are the main reason, why i bought this phone. So i want to keep my Touchwiz Features but make my system more smooth.
Hello
I would recommend you to try this, I've been using this setup for a while now and it's the smoothest experience I've had with the phone yet, install stock ROM through ODIN, with the galaxy note 2 toolkit from this forum do the root plus custom recovery plus busy box plus rename option, freeze whatever Samsung apps you don't use, i will try to attach a screen shot to show you which ones I froze, install a custom kernel like perseus, red pill, or others, I prefer these two, and in the GPU tab change the minimum frequency to 260mhz, the maximum to 640, check set on boot, install greenify from the play store and check all the apps that you don't want running all the time and the reboot and check the performance after a couple days of use, please report back if i helped in any way.
Just one more screen shot
Idk if this will help but try it
Took me 15 min yo find the post
The problem was flashed s3 ROM then went back to note 2 ROM and phone became so laggy..
The solution was:
Flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003240
via odin (pda) aswell as the .pit file.
for some reason this was the only rom that cleared up all my issues.
I take no credit for this as this was another users find..
Hope it helps .. Give it a shot
Sent from my GT-N7100
Yes, I've read of people with an s3 flashing note 2 firmwares and people with a note 2 flashing s3 firmwares too, the main problem was lag and the only solution was to flash a full firmware that corresponded to the device, interesting, did any of us help you at all?
Thanks a lot guys!
I tried to freeze all the apps i don't need, with the result, that it laggs less now. Thanks
But ut it is still lagging sometimes. It is possible to make it smooth like the nexus4 without flashing a aosp rom?

As I said in my previous post.. There might be some system errors going on.. Flashing with odin the firmware from my previous post here hopefully can fix most of errors..
I had horrible lag and system not saving after restart.. Now it's all ok and everything is on

I installed the Sentinel rom for the note 2 which has been super smooth. Compiled with the Linaro compiler and it runs quicker than I've ever seen an android phone run. Only issue (as with all cm10 roms) is the lack of spen functionality but I think it's worth the sacrifice.

Ok. I flashed my Phone with odin and have done a fullwipw in the stock recovery. All ist fine and smooth, but the Animation is still a bit laggy. After flashing my custom rom, the phone ist still the same like before flashing and with stock rom.
Does anyone knows about a mod or something like that which boost my Phone?

OK try this ..
Flash a custom kernel.. Perseus is the best.
Force System to render on GPU .. Comes with ROMs like phoenix and ARHD..
Overclock GPU (to around 733 MHz) and CPU (make sure you lower the voltage for 1700 and 1800 MHz)
This should make your phone smooth since it put less power on CPU and put it on GPU which you don't use it a lot.. And GPU makes graphics run better..
Sent from my GT-N7100
Ok. I flashed ARHD and then Redpill Kernel. Set the max. GPU frequenz to 733mhz and then reboot. After reboot it feels the same . It has the same laggs while starting or closing apps. It is not always, but often.
I think it is Touchwiz that slows my quadcore beast down. But i don't want aosp because i use my s pen a lot and the other features too. Is there a way to keep my touchwiz features and a smooth rom?
Flashing another devices rom has its consequences. Worst case is wipe and start over. Have you tried Tweakbox?
Hi all, i just bought my nexus 7 2013. Eavreything is smooth fast and cool but i noticed now 3 times that after power use( playing game, web browsing, multitasking with tablet) it goes slow amd laggy. Eaven touch press get deleyed for half second.
Tried to clear ram, but only reboot it seems to help.
Anyone have same probs? And how to fix that or?
P.s. im stil on stocl rom 4.4.2 nonrooted but i'll probalby root it soon, so any idea how to fix that lagg?
Not sure friend but if you are rooting i recommend cleanrom as it has no problems at all and a custom kernel like glitch. Both work excellent for me

Hello All,
I flashed my nexus with CM12 ROM and post that when i was not happy with the performance i flashed CM11.
But in both the cases, i am experiencing a lag throughout the device, whether it is games or watching videos or the normal device operations.
I wiped the device clean on both the occasions, and flashed the ROM's perfectly.
Can anyone help me why i am getting a Lag!.

Hello...
Kinda have the same problem. I have a little lag while scrolling in pages and stuff
Device seems a little slow this happened like 2 days ago I was running cm 12.1 then
Switched to stock and the same problem.. I tried KitKat and there was a little slow too.
I don't have any problems in apps games or movies. Implosion for example is running perfectly... Maybe there is something we can do to fix it? BTW I installed the stock with full wipe and only restored my apps with tb.
Thanks

That is what i am hoping for exactly.. A Fix!. Didn't experience any lag when i was using stock. The moment i flashed it with other stuff, came the Lag. I will try flashing the stock again and see if i find any lag.
Thanks for the input though!
