half way through the day today, and a couple days ago, i noticed my phone slowing to VERY very much, huge lag and latency. i barley run any appas at work, ill check a couple of websites, facebook and txt messages. I checked spare parts > Battery History and Running is at 100%. when i check partial wake usage, no apps seem to be staying awake and draining my battery. any1 ever experience this? is there another way to see if there is an app/service bogging down my phone. sometimes i notice when im on 4G it also slows doen, but it has never drained my battery like this.
im considering wiping the cache and dalvik, would that help?
Yes wipe both and then go to "Other" and select 'Fix UID mismatch' while you're there.
Another app that can help narrow it down is "SystemPanel Lite", free on the market.
Or if you like, start using Juice Defender and maybe even buy the UltimateJuice for 3.99 if I remember correctly, It gives me a x1.87 boost, so It could work...GL
And I just found this useful bit of information on each method to save your battery or increase it in fact here it is the link http://home.comcast.net/~evobenchers/index.html viola enjoy
Thanks for the suggestions, ill see if it helps within the nest couple days
Good luck...nothing has worked for me. I have done all of the above and it still happens. 4g does seem to slow it up also. My phone runs around 100% but no apps are draining it. Very rarely will watchdog alert me on an app draining the usage. I do not want to do a hard reset but that is sprints only answwr.
Hey, are there any side effects to wiping the cache and dalvik without flashing a new rom? will i lose anything?
Edit1: also, i'm looking into WatchDog. which version are you using skillzo1?

None other than your first boot up will take a little longer as it rebuilds the Dalvik.
It probably could be considered a good maintenance step as is cleaning up "Other".
I've experienced this issue twice now wherein my phone would get extremely slow and laggy to the point that it's unbearable to use anymore and the only solution was a reboot. Launcher keeps on restarting, messaging app takes 5 seconds to open, camera is lagging etc and this is after a week of uptime at least.
Why does this happen in the first place and am I the only one experiencing this? I've been running only maguro milestone 5 and franco for the past month, no other roms whatsoever. Once I power down and reboot everything becomes nice and fast again.
Never happened to me on stock.
I'd say it's "normal" for a phone to slow down over time as you add apps and things, but it should never slow down to a crawl and start crashing until you reboot.

normal for it to slow down a bit but not like how you described it. i'm running stock though.
It's not normal. Install some monitoring tool like "OS Monitor" and run it when the problem happens to find out the culprit.
Oh and installing multiple apps will not slow down the phone. This is not Windows 95.

lol at the windows 95 comment
although the # of apps you have alone shouldnt slow your phone down, if you have a ton of apps running in the background eating up ram it may slow down if the available free ram you have is really really low
when your phone is laggy check the ram first
Thanks guys I'll try OS monitor to see what's running. It just happened again right now and this is getting annoying, even typing is laggy but after a reboot everything is normal again.
Kill background apps.

So far I have not had that issue. Probably like everyone else said. There is some run away app that's eating up your memory

Its not normal, but aokp does have a bug. Check your system process in system panel, it grows larger over time if you use lock screen options etc.
Ever since I updated my phone to stock 4.0.4, it's not been the same buttery smooth Epic Touch that it used to be on Gingerbread. Sometimes the lags gets so bad that the phone would restart itself. I have done a reformat and things have been going smooth for about 2 months and it has started lagging again now. Right now I am running minimum 3rd party apps, and only limited to reputable ones such as Facebook and whatnot. The CPU Spy shows the phone is in deep sleep most of the time. Android OS still takes up about 90% of battery usage. I made sure nothing is hogging up the ram in task manager and clear memory 2-3 times a day. Yet, it still lags like crazy especially while typing or turning the screen off.
Can anyone chime in on what else could be causing this?

since you mention facebook what's your sync situation like? just a suggestion as I remember similar threads where constant syncing was causing issues... if android os is using that much battery something is amiss... its just a matter of figuring out what...

FB's refresh interval is set to 1 hour. Is that what you are referring to?

Welcome to ics. I get the same thing and have tried everything. Good news is they are pumping out new builds pretty quick to hopefully they are working out all the kinks.

try a different rom.
I am running Golden Eye v.4 and having an issue with the lock screen.
The clock is stuck at some random time and will not adjust to the real time. I did cache and Dalvik cache wipe, it didn't resolve the issue.
Anything else I could do to fix it?
Same issue
I had the same issue. Running stock 4.2.2, rooted, and I froze a few apps. I unfroze the first Clock (digital) and restarted the phone. The time is now accurate. I am not sure if that was the problem or just a coincidence. The developer may have taken out that apk ?!?

Any other solutions?

well for whatever reason the clock process keeps getting killed it sounds like, are you using any task killers? Since you make it seem like it stops at 5:05 everyday, you might have set up the task killer to clean your ram every so often, and its killing the clock process

Actually, yes, I dp occasionally use Gemini task killer widget throughout the day. It is not set up on a schedule though. Should I not be using task killer in general?

mmmm lets just say its contraversal at the very least. try uninstalling it for a bit and see if that fixes your clock stopping issue
So i really love the look, feel, options and performance of a clean fresh install of AOKP. However, the more apps i install and use the slower the performance of the UI gets. It slowly gets unbearable, seemingly, as i add back my apps that i like. Is this normal? I've tried a memory manager called Auto Memory Manager but that didn't seem to help at all. Is this just a consequence of having lots of apps installed? It's almost like i'm on an old windows machine and it needs to have a clean install every couple of months to get the "snappy" ui feel back. It bad enough sometimes where it takes the phone 5-10 seconds to actually answer a call once I click answer and 5 seconds to get to the home screen. What can i do?

I've falshed it and i'm getting all my apps installed on it now to give it a go.
Do all ROM's get slower as you install more apps?

Yes, and from my perspective it's because many apps you install tend to automatically start as you e.g. power up the phone, turn on WiFi/data, etc. and then they keep running and taking CPU time and RAM in the background. Common task killers won't solve this easily. Best way to verify is to stop everything possible from Settings-Apps-Running.

yes and no, yes if you install apps that sit in the background and start using data,check for updates constantly like facebook, the best thing to do is to use greenify and greenify that app so that it doesnt wake up your device and start eating ram n data. also note that if u do this to messenger apps you wont get notifications unless you open the app

I've got all my apps up and runnign on Vanir now, and i will agree that it is far snappier than AOKP. However it has frozen on me twice. And i mean a hard freeze. Screen got stuck, audio looping on last few milisecs of sound and i had to pull the battery to get it out of the freeze.
Today, i got the first dose of it being slow like AOKP again. It was while it was charging in my car dock and i was trying to dial a phone number using rocket dial.
What are some typical apps that i should try to greenify? Sounds like i shouldn't greenify anything i want notificatinos from like phone, messaging and email. Anything else i should greenify or not greenify? Any tips on the freezing?

wow thats very weird ! one thing ive noticed is that if your internal storage (sdcard) space is less than 5 gb the phone tends to slow down. im guessing you fall under this criteria. ive never had any lags or freezes on vanir's builds till today, if you want the most stable build of 4.3 its the 26/10/2013 nightly by newclearmistake. ive found that as the most stable one and reliable one till now
