I have had my Arc since it first came out in the UK but have noticed on occasions of late that it seems to have developed a lag, especially on things like accessing the gallery & messaging. Has anyone else noted this?
Nope. However I do use a cache cleaner every few weeks.

Yup, after about 2 weeks mine started to lag every once in a while. I just assumed it was because of some faulty app. So I did a clean install, and 2 weeks later it was the same again. (didn't install too many apps this time)
Mine is still great.
try an app called fast reboot....I find it speeds things up
No lag at all here, 2 months in.
Had the Arc (UK) about 2 months and in the last two weeks things have really started to lag. Have had to resort to rebooting and cleaning the cache regularly but it only takes a day to start lagging again. Wondering whether there is a CPU/ memory hog there in my app suite or a widget but haven't been able to identify anything yet. Once the phone goes below 40-50MB free it is all over and I have to reboot.
This may sound weird but my phone lags during the day and it runs super fast at night lol

I have this lags, too. But I had not to reboot the system, yet...
Any more ideas?
Cheers!

After update on Android 2.3.3 i don't hve any lag. Before that I had lag but nothing to worry about. I think it was Android 2.3.2 that cousses lag.

Same here after about 1 to 2 days the phone memory goes to about 25MB and is practically not useable and need to reboot. I am on 2.3.3
I went through my apps & by trial & error ended up removing a particular app & that seems to have sped things up a bit. Also downloaded a history cleaner & used that & that has improved things a bit as well. But in certain areas it definitely still seems to lag. Have to wonder now if it is something to do with the Arc's hardware?
ok guys after using SeePU+++ i think i found the process that uses the most cpu power and lags down our Arc is "ndroid.process.acore"
not sure what it does but i believe it is the culprit for random slow downs and lag on our phone...
does anyone know what it does? can anyone confirm my findings?
P.s. I am on global generic 2.3.3 firmwre 145
This problem may be caused by a bug in the Google Contacts Sync , just as seen in this bug:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2377
In other devices like HTC Evo this problem persist

I don't have the Google Sync activated and i don't feel my Arc Laggy
This phone is incredibly laggy. Many FCs or lags when I open the messaging app or other apps... Very sad and frustrating.
One of the major causes of lag on the HTC hero was having too many text messages stored on the phone. Ever since then i tend to not let the numbers build up too much, and i havent noticed any lag problems on the arc (maybe it's a general android problem).

one of the main android apps, your keybord and other important funtions are here, so my advice : dont touch it or you end up reflashing ROM
I have been experiencing some extreme wake-up lag on my R800a running DoomKernel v11 after installing a theme. It's so bad that it takes a solid 3 seconds for the screen to light up and during those seconds, the music is choppy as hell. I wouldn't mind it if it wasn't ruining the music. I first installed this custom ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321314 and I noticed the intense lag right away. I thought it was just a glitch in the ROM so I just went back to stock. Then I tried installing this theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464375 and I got the same problem again. I completely wiped all the user data and started from scratch twice and am still faced with the same problem. The phone runs perfectly when it's awake. There's absolutely no lag anywhere, just on the initial wake-up. I even used an app called Soft Locker so it wouldn't go into deep sleep and set my minimum CPU clock to 1.5ghz and I still got the lag. The theme is way too sexy to just give up so I was just wondering if anyone has encountered this before.
So I tried using the stock kernel with the theme and the wake up lag went away so I guess the DooMKernel was causing the problem, which is unfortunate because I love that kernel. Has anyone else had a similar problem while using the DooMKernel?
Actually SE.Tweaked isn't working well right now.
I have R800a as well, I installed it, and it wouldn't even boot. R800i users seem to have no problems, but R800a and at users seem to be having problems.
As well all ICS roms are in BETA. So things not working properly with all phones/kernels should be expected.
So it's not doomkernel, it's the ROM.
[Q] Flickering Problem when running my game
Hello all,
Recently i am developing a game. While testing on my galaxy S3 i noticed that sometimes the home screens and app pages flicker when sliding through pages and even swiping the notification bar down.
The funny thing, it doesnt happen every time i play the game, but it happens some times. To get rid of the problem i have to open my game again or any other app and then exit out of it and the flickering will stop.
Ive tried and tested just about ALL of my code. There doesnt seem to be any major issues or memory problems. I am also cleaning up properly when exiting my game, and destroying objects and even stoping my game engine.
At this point i am beginning to think it is a bug in the Android OS or something. My device is running Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean. Ive had many others beta test the game on some cheaper and lower end devices and they dont have the problem. And of course not on tablets.
What do you guys think? Has anyone else encountered this issue?

I've had this S3 for over a year now and I've been trying almost all new roms and tried overclocking but none seems to help the lag. I know it's there because my S2 is smoother in everything other than internet browser speed. I can play same game in full detail smoothly on S2 but I have lags even with low detail in S3. Any normal use seems to be okay but here are the annoying issues and I'm hoping someone has advice. Below are the list of issues that occur in every ROM I've tried.
- BT constantly drops connection and sometimes reboots phone. (I've tried turning off PBAP. This does not help. I've also tried raising min Mhz)
- Some games lag a lot. Reinstall/download does not help. Sometimes turning off WiFi helps with lag. Receiving SMS alert during game causes massive lag
I've been trying to install 4.3 knoxless version but gets stuck in Samsung screen so I gave that up. I might try CM11 next although I didn't have good luck with CM builds (seems to worsen the issue).
Any advise before I put this on CL?

If you're getting the same issues on various roms then it is definitely a problem with the phone.

Hi, so i bought a used lg g3 and basically my problem is that most games freeze, i was on 6.0 v30n so i thought that was the problem so i flashed to v30b but the problem is still there
GTA San Andreas freezes when going to any settings
Fallout Shelter freezes when picking the first dwellers
Need For Speed No Limits freezes when starting a race
Also only the screen freezes because on the freezed screen i can still click on stuff and i hear the sound, i can lock the phone, go out of the gane
Its really frustrating because i cant play most of the games
Any fix to that?
