New, fresh device - Extremely laggy homescreen - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have got here a brand new LG G3 with hardly any apps installed. Even then, the default LG Home UI lags terribly. It keeps on redrawing and refreshing itself every time I exit an app and enter the homescreen. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

Can't say I have. I am honestly just terrified at the sheer scale of the lag out of the box. Could kindly point me to some useful lagfixes? Thanks buddy!

Don't panic , try to make a quick factory reset for your device it should solve the problem , if not and you don't want to waste more time by sending it back to the warranty , u can flash a new stock rom using either tot file or kdz , u can find both of the ways in one thread here .
keep us updated

I was about to complain about the same. I think 2gb/ 16 gb version have this launcher redrawing thing. But totally unprofessional approach for ui and launcher ram management. This is happening since d85520a what a shame.

Or, simply install Nova Launcher and have a quicker launcher with way more options as well. Win - win.
And yes, most if not all LG widgets will not work

cough LG cough. it's their launcher, don't stress about lag sir.
i'd also recommend nova launcher. :good:

Did you update your firmware to the latest?

"Don't keep activities" - anybody use it?

Love the phone but a few times the launcher has redrawn after exiting an app because of most likely memory issues. Anybody using this option? Assuming over time this would keep more memory free and reduce this issue. Any thoughts?

This is one of the reasons why I don't like that Google included these developer options pre-installed on this phone. They're developer options for a reason, we can install them if we need to.
This feature is designed so that developers can test their app to be sure that data is properly saved when is no longer in the foreground. For example, if a user receives a phone call or jumps to another app, the app needs to do what is necessary to save it's data. At times, Android can kill a process in the background. If the user plans to go back (perhaps they finished the phone call), they want to see what it is they were working on last. The developer is supposed to handle this case by rebuilding everything as it was before (to provide that seamless experience for the user when switching between apps).
This debug feature helps us test that it works.
For the average user, all you're really more likely to do is slow down your apps. As they will have to rebuild themselves when you resume them, and you may even open yourself to more quirky bugs (for those apps that didn't properly test the above scenario).
So please don't enable it unless you're doing it for development purposes. My 2 cents.
*EDIT* Here's a page from the Android Dev Guide justifying my explanation:
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/debugging/debugging-devtools.html
Immediately destroy activities
Tells the system to destroy an activity as soon as it is stopped (as if Android had to reclaim memory). This is very useful for testing the onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) / onCreate(android.os.Bundle) code path, which would otherwise be difficult to force. Choosing this option will probably reveal a number of problems in your application due to not saving state. For more information about saving an activity's state, see the Activities document.

Thanks. I turned it off. Did notice some bugs while on. I just wish with 1GB of RAM the launcher wouldnt have to reload. Hopefully things get better. Might just be my apps but it happens quite often when leaving the browser.

weird.. how many widgets do you have on your launcher? the more widgets you have, the slower the launcher is.
Have you tried another launcher? The stock launcher has never been known for being fast and efficient, although I haven't had any issues with it (whereas I'm a LauncherPro fan on my other devices).

I have quite a few Widgets but nothing too crazy I don't think. I use LauncherPro on my other devices as well but I love this new launcher so I'm going to stick it out. Like I said the most common task that causes the issue is when I'm using the web browser and then come out of it. Otherwise its been stable. I've noticed the same thing with Honeycomb on my Xoom so it might just be one of those things I have to put up with.

i'm also noticing some redraw and occasional lag when hitting the home button.
I'm hoping that CM9's custom launcher will have an option to lock it in memory- that may increase the performance by a lot.
also when replacement launchers like go launcher start optimizing more for ICS those might be good options.
Have you tried converting your launcher into a system app? You'll need to use Titanium Backup Pro or something similar to do it for you, or simple copy the APK into your system/app folder... Really sped up my launcher!

Thanks for clarifying the meaning of "Don't keep activities"
my razr xt910 cannot be counted upon to run smoothly with all the apps simultaneously running and forcing itself to go into reboot. i then fancied an iPhone single styled system (as compared to Android multi-talks) cuz iPhone looks robust and responsive. all the killer that claimed to do the job looked more of a farce and then when i stumbled upon the destroy activity i was like OMG. srsly b4 using it I've only got just inner 100mb of ram, after using it i have a whooping 400mb ram. UI appears faster and all. regarding the relaunching of apps and battery life being used up. i think I'll start to worry about it on a later date. what say any body. ooh yes to add on, even after i deleted 40 apps on my phone it still hanged like fcuked. i guess i can reinstall them back again and not have to worry about it. btw i can't seem to root my xt910 for nuts so i can't custom ROM it along with all other fanciful mods that i hear about what others did to their phones.

Deleting Home screens

I'm rooted and stock (official jellybean). Whenever I delete a home screen that I don't want, Touchwiz crashes. I've wiped and it doesn't help.
What's the issue with that?
I just checked and mine does the same thing. I don't feel like resetting my home screens, but you can try going to settings->manage applications, scroll over to all, find touchwiz home and clear cache and force stop, then try. I doubt it will work, but worth a try if it's bugging you.
If you can't fix it then worse comes to worst...or rather better in my experience...download and install Go Launcher EX. Way cooler than the TW launcher and you can still use TW features but not the TW widgets (calendar, accuweather, etc but plenty of great alternatives). If you have Titanium Backup I've even found that freezing (disabling) TW hasn't caused any issues if you're using a different launcher.

I ended up doing the same thing today but as soon as I set my phone back up the way I wanted it, it stopped working again. I only have 3 screens instead of all 7 last time but I found a use for the extra screen.

[Q] Anyone else notice some lag after the first few days? need help if you have!

So i've only had the phone for a few days and started noticing lag mainly in the settings yesterday.
It was buttery smooth the first few days until yesterday. I'll try to create a clear description of what is happening.
Everything in terms of hitting applications, sliding/switching pages, and browsers seems smooth but I'm getting doubts since settings have started lagging. So as of now, the settings menu is where I really notice the problem. What happens is I would press any of the choices such as display, sound, storage, etc and it would light up blue as a sign that I pressed it. Basically, the blue lighting stutters/lags as it turns into a deeper color and fades away proving that there is some lag. That itself is very irritating on such a powerful phone. The page also lags a bit as it's opening so it's obvious that it does lag. I don't understand why something as simple as settings might be causing this?
have any of you guys noticed this? I tried clearing ram, restarting phone, messing with dev options by changing animation and something else to .5x while enabling "force GPU rendering." I'm running stock touchwiz on baseband T889UVALJ1 if that helps. Keep in mind i'm not really tech savvy so try to suggest things in an easy to understand way please.
Any help is greatly appreciated and I hope you guys can help me fix my problem!
Been using it for the past 1 month plus and I do not have any lagging issues. I am on stock rom as well.
No lag either, been using the Note 2 for 2 months now. Check your apps with BetterBatteryStatts (too many backgroundservices runing).
No lag either. Did u install some crappy apps that run backstage

Thanks for the replies so far and before I spend some money on apps or what not, is there any way I can post a 5 second animation of what is happening? Kind of like a 5 second gif of my screen? A mix of a screenshot and video so like a screen vid? Are there are any apps that can do that(preferably free). I'll try to find an app that can do that in the meantime and will edit if I find something useful.
Edit: No idea what this is or how it ended up on my phone but could this be the culprit? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tgrape.android.radar
People say it's bloatware and s-suggest from samsung but i'm not sure why it would be shown as an app on the play store website
I have noticed the phone can lag a bit if you have a heavy live wallpaper running.
Just sharing my thoughts on this
did you modify anything? no lags on my N2.
normally i'd say if you leave your phone on for a few days in a row, clear the memory every once in a while (press and hold home, go task manager, ram tab, clear memory) or reboot it, just so you dont have anything residual in your ram.
when android sees that you have 2gb of ram, it doesnt auto kill as many apps as it would if you were to have only 1gb of ram (my note 1 autokilled sooooooo frequently that it was annoying), so your ram ends up getting filled with some apps that you only used once in a while.

Yeah, I get a bit of lag here and there, specially if I haven't cleared running/background apps in a while.
I just do it from the task manager, and also check out what apps are using the most battery, and possibly therefore are some of the likely culprits.
I actually use this app called Carat, which is an "Energy bug detector app" (whatever that means), but it helps identify apps that are draining the battery, and incidentally, partially contributing to the lag.
Also obvious thing like live wallpapers or touchwiz in general (including all the 'special' Samsung features like smart rotate, smart stay, smart motion) probably add to it to. Nova launcher and a static wallpaper might help.
I'll try to post a video sometime soon showing the lag. It's not serious lag, but it does stutter and lag a decent amount compared to my first few days which is what sucks.

You can try enabling Force GPU rendering in developers options. That usually helps with that, or at least it seemed to in my case. Report back if it actually helped
quick update:
I found a vid and my lag basically looks like this http://youtu.be/0qyijcTeHcU?t=2m27s
Look at when he clicks on display, there is clearly some lag even if it is half a second - 1 second. I'm almost certain that my lag is even worse than that, but not by too much. It's just a pain in the ass after the first few days. Would flashing a custom rom like jedi X 7.2 help out with this since it's running a bravia engine?

Tips on getting rid of lags

I have had my European G3 for a couple of days and what's getting me off is the small (and sometimes bigger)
lags here and there. Its probably mostly up to LGs skin a and apps but I rather not starting out using Nova because I think the functions are pretty good.
Right now the darn keyboard is lagging precisely that the ripped variant did on my M8, darn lag....
Anyone got any tips. So far I've tried:
1. Reset. Works for a while ...
2. Root n freeze n grenify. Well, it's lagging
So? Anyone with the same experience and maybe a fix?
Edit. I think I've got some of of the lag away.
So far I've tried the following:
1. Root
2. Greenify
3. Changed read ahead etc with trickster
4. Changed minfree and applied som launcher tweaks
5. Developer settings stuff
6. Other than that adfree, probably at a cost
The launcher and apps is now feeling a bit snappier and the battery should not be worse at least.
In developer's options either scale animations to 0.5 or off completely, see if it works

Trouble is it seems to get hot very easily
Weird. I haven't gotten any lags or stutters with mine.
Only bug happened was when I wake the phone it instantly locks it again. So I just restarted it and everything is fine.
Maybe try swiftkey? It's free and I love it with my Note 2 - especially the ability to control how long a long press is for numbers etc. Let me know how it is if you do, since I plan on using it with the G3.
Also, maybe something like Greenify will help hibernate more background processes and make it heat up less and free up the CPU?
I find lag on first day of use. Didnt install any app yet.
I think it was way over bloated with carrier app. Try disable a few with titanium backup. It seemed to help alot in my case.

Root. Takes 30 seconds and if you want back to stock just remove whatever you did to system and reset the devise to get rid of the evidence

You can't do anything to get rid of it.
Best case scenario is future updates by LG will improve performance, but no one can know for sure.

I guess you haven't used an S5. That thing is ridiculous.
After using my LG G3 a couple of days I'll say it lags about the same as the S5 did before the first two updates. You have to give it to Sammy, they did try to fix it pretty quick. The problem is more that their ui lags in the first place.

[Q] No multitasking & stopping home screen

Hey guys!
I have some problem and I'm trying to find some answers but so far no success.
If you guys can't help me then nobody else!
So I have 2 problems and in my opinion they are connected.
The first is that my home screen is closing (stopping?) and opening (redrawing?) itself almost all the time - after YouTube, Chrome, even after closing this forum! Obviously not all the times, but really frequently - it's getting REALLY annoying now. I'm trying Nova launcher now but it's still happening - not that often though, but still.
My other problem is that I have literally no multitasking. If I open my chat app (Whatsapp or Line) and go to Chrome to check out a webpage after I go back to the chat application it had to reboot - like I opened it for the first time! Same thing is happening with Chrome when I check out message for example. For reference I tried out my dad's cheap (compared to G3) phone and it had 4 apps running at the same time (Camera, Chrome, Line and even a game) and all of them was working! Not even one had to restart when I was switching between them...
What do you think - is it normal? (Obviously I'm using the 2/16 version - I was fooled by LG when they said G3 is optimized for 2gb...)
What can I do? Is there anything to do? (Except waiting for a miracle OR update. )
Thanks,

Sounds like you're running out of RAM and apps are closing (normal for Android if it runs out of memory).

try flashing the 10J firmware from the kdz thread in general it reduces system ram usage a bit
also maybe install greenify and use the nonroot modus to kill apps that you don't use I never went above 2.2gb of rams so that is in your ballpark
quick and easy fix.
Don't listen Or believe anyone who tells you that The 16gb/2gb ram version Is any less powerful than it's 3gb ram variant. LG isn't playing around when it tells you that Both versions of the phones are equal.
Coming to the fix : you would've discovered it by now but if not, here goes..
Turn on developer mode by hitting build number under software, them just scroll down in developer options to turn down animation scales to half or completely shut them down.
Doing this will bring true real time multitasking on your 16gb/2gb g3. The additional ram on the variant is nothing but a novelty. 2Gb ram is more than enough for almost anything you'll throw to your g3.
