A strange lag on my S6??? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6

Hy guys,
My phone is on 5.1.1 BOI1 , rooted.
When using normally, especially surfing Opera or Facebook, I find it usually has a lag and then moves to lock screen, I have to unlock screen to continue using.
Is there something wrong with my phone? Full RAM or conflicted apps or anything else? (I've used Titanium backup and Greenify so I think it still has enough RAM for such light apps)
I need help to solve this inconvenience.
Thank you a lot

I am going to offer an educated guess that you are using Unikernel V9. The lock screen issue has been reported by other users as well and is, so I understand, being worked on. (Don't know when it will be fixed though.)
You can find version 8 here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=39325 if you want to try that. Battery life is not as good, but no lockscreen issue as far as I know.
Just flash the zip file in TWRP, clear caches and you should be good to go.

has anyone compared the battery life between v9 and non-kernel-root routine?

[Q] RAM problem....

hello
My note 2's 2GB of RAM is ****ed up, some apps I don't know about them uses up all the RAM and it makes my phone ****ing slow. It's ****ing pissing me off.
It goes to 357MB then to 1.34GB.
Is there any way to fix this issue?
Thank you.

HI ***KING LARIOUS
sent from my future SPH-L900
please no trolls.
I asked if there's any ****ing solution for this problem. How can i permanently close those running apps. I ****ing force close them and they ****ing starts again.
Can you post a ****ing screen shot or make a ****ing list of the ****ing apps that are ****ing opening so that we can see what they are?
Maybe other people will have the same apps running and know how to shut them off

Seeing as you're new here, i though i'd be nice to you this first time.
Please, no swearing.
The people who posted in the thread are making fun of you because of the absolutely unneeded swearing and nonsense.
To fix your problem you're going to have to tell us some more about your phone and what you've done.
Is it rooted? If so, what rom and kernel are you running?
Did you try to simply reboot the phone? (Also a good idea to cold boot it, meaning to shut it off, remove the battery, put it back in and boot up).
It's doesn't help what so ever to force close apps that are not misbehaving. The Android system manages this perfectly fine. Only force close an app if there is something wrong with it.
What apps have you installed? Some of them might be taking up alot of RAM and running in the background.
I was nice to you, now please do the same to us.
You came to us asking a question like that, you should be gracious that we're even replying.

Sure.
My Samsung Galaxy note 2 is not rooted.
I restart my phone couple of times if the number exceeded.
I have 39 apps downloaded from Google Play.
I was angry because it annoys crap out of me so pardon me.

Okay.
If your phone is running slowly and you're not rooted, then it is 99% sure an app problem.
It could be a hardware flaw in your phone, but my guess is app related (If your phone was as slow as it is now, when you got it, it is probably hardware related).
Try uninstalling any unneeded apps, like various tools you downloaded once to try it out, games you dont really play, etc etc.
Try to clear your cache. There are several apps out there that can do it (Some require root, and can clear more caches than non-root ones can, just try a non-root cache cleaner).
After doing that, do a cold boot as i refered to in my last post and see if it is better.
If not, try and go into Settings, Applications, Running Applications and see if there are any major apps that you installed yourself (not the ones that came with the phone) running and try to uninstall the ones taking up the most power, then do a cold boot again and see if it improved.
If nothing works, try and post a list of the apps you have installed on your phone that you installed yourself.

I don't think its hardware related. When I got first my Note 2 it was suprisingly fast. So it's probably the apps.
I've cleared all my caches, deleted a lot of unneeded apps and also done the cold boot after that I navigated to Settings>Applications manager> running apps.
I noticed samsung's keyboard took 55mb of ram, google service 20mb. maps 32mb. play store 10mb. settings 39mb 0_0. Those apps that came with the phone took a lot of ram. why is that? is there anyway to decrease the number?
You can use Titanium Backup to freeze or unintstall any apps that aren't needed by the OS. This will prevent them from ever starting up again.
Is the used up ram actually causing you problems? As I understand it android will make use of the ram to help switch apps quicker. So if its high its not a problem.

there are apps out there that tells you which apps uses the most cpu cycles. i can't recommend one as i don't use them, but might help you pinpoint your problem-app.

Nexus 5x encryption

Hi.
Have noticed that this phone is extremely slow while installing or updating apps from the play store. It is lagging like hell just switching home screens, anyone else have noticed this? Can this have with the encrypted system?
And if i install a custom rom to disable encryption, will it be a noticeable performance change of the phone?
Thanks

Are you talking about downloading one or two apps?Or more of a got the phone and restored all your apps from the playstore? Usually downloading an app or two has had no real lag for my phone. As far as decryption and custom roms go alot of the time the custom roms with the right gapps pack (i use banks) will give you a little bit more ram to use and have other system optimiziations that will make it run a little bit smoother than stock. But that will depend on the rom and kernel (over//underclock)combo you use.

Noticed it espessially when updating Messenger and Facebook today, and also Es file explorer. So only 3 apps. I am familliar that restoring the phone makes it slow, but this was only 3 apps as written :\
Ok, if it is only a little it may not be worth it then? Never had a nexus before, but with samsung a custom kernel/rom helped a lot.

Welcome to the nexus world. Custom rom kernel may help with the lag im a big fan of flar2's elemental kernel. the new twrp now supports decryption as well.

HTC 10 Lag

Hi
I face a heavy lag while google market update my apps, dose any one have the same issue ??
is there any solution for it??
If I unlock my phone and instal custom ROM the lag will be disappear?
Thanks.
It's normal I think. My phone lags also when installing a downloaded app especially heavier apps. Of course this lag is minor and doesn't keep me from doing what I have in hand.

I have no lag at all on Leedroid. You didn't give any details about what your running, so I would say it is some app or your setup causing it.

the big problem for me is while Play store installing updates my phone have a heavy LAG, i cant use my keyboard or apps to mach lag.
I hope you got it

Not normal to have lag on this phone. I get lag on my 5yo tablet. Restart phone (sorry have to suggest that lately). Maybe try an app like ccleaner to clean up. Clear cache from playstore app. Lastly do factory reset and see if that fixes it. If factory reset fixes it, try to notice when issue begins again.
Do you have adoptable storage enabled?
I have a stock HTC 10 and don't experience this. If you have adoptable storage and a slow microSD card it's probably the culprit.

A5 Oreo weird animation performance

Everyone is talking about the better UI fluidity since Oreo update. I also was thinking that the moment I updated the phone and performed the factory reset. It was amazing at the beginning.
However, after a few minutes of usage (I don't use any accesibility services, and just a few background processes Wa,snap, insta,fb lite) the animations became laggy: pulling notification drawer, opening apps (especially for multitasking), scrolling.. it looks like an fps drop.. but it isn't really. Like I'm using the J3 or J5...
It's not that bad, but it's irritating me since MM and N were noticeably smoother. It was like this before & after factory reset.
Sorry for long post, does anyone have the same problem? Any ideas what to do?
Reflash?

I updated it via OTA. Knox and the warranty are important to me.
Are your animations perfectly smooth even after few days? They weren't pefect before, but now they are sometimes good and sometimes not.
I'm using oreo too but I don't experience such problems. Unfortunately, I don't know what your problem could be too. ☹ Maybe you could observe your CPU load & RAM usage when the phone starts lagging and post them here?

Okay so these are the same apps I was using since MM. However I don't know how to post CPU usage.
The problem is I feel like the phone isn't optimised like before. It's responsive and it's the same speed, but animations look bad. They usually aren't smooth enough and for example opening-closing instagram stories is like someone stabbing me. Can anyone check that who's using IG?
RAM usage seems to be normal. For the cpu usage you have to download a separate app e.g. AIDA64.
As far as I understand, the lagging appears everywhere, not only in the Samsung related apps (launcher etc.), is that right?

Not all apps. Samsung Internet, Messaging and Youtube work perfectly. But Launcher, Transitions, Recent apps, Notification drawer, Twitter, Instagram - they have tendency to skip frames.
The CPU usage is pretty fine, half of the units are sleeping.
The phone is perfectly usable, but I definitely prefer the old reliable animations. I can't believe I'm the only one having this problem.. :crying:
My biggest concern about buying Samsung was the fluidity since I was coming from Sony and it was pretty fine until now..I sometimes feel like having an OCD using the oreo firmware

If you just flash via odin, neither knox nor warranty will be lost, just make sure you flash your country's firmware.

I flashed it and wiped data. It's literally the same. Like I did nothing at all. The same applications tend to skip frames, and I still don't know if all phones are like this or not. If anoyone can also check whether Twitter swiping tabs is laggy on Oreo or Instagram closing stories - I'd be thankful.

It doesn't seem a software issue now. No, the a5 2017 devices do not tend to have those issues, all the A 2017 series are known by the excellent performance. Take it to warranty and hear what they have to say about that, it is not common for that to happen.

I am 100% sure that the hardware is okay. The performance is still excellent. The animations aren't optimized for me since Oreo. Do you know if I can flash Nougat or MM over Oreo without losing knox with the same carrier?

Not a chance, you may end up hard bricking your device as a downgrade with Samsung since Nougat is not being possible. Also your knox could be tripped, reason why I suggested to go to warranty. If hardware is ok, but software is not functioning, you may get a replacement or they need to do something about that.

Yup I tried that already on MM, it makes things worse, not for my phone but for all cause this phone isnt s series and can't handle fast animations, it can barely make these 1x smooth. 1.5x works more smooth but it's just too long.?

Not really but I think it got better. Try disabling every backup and sync option on Samsung cloud. If you dont need it at all you can disable/uninstall it via ADB - my phone feels better after I unchecked all the sync and backup options.
In Secure folder go to Apps and disable Google play services, Google play store and everything you can when not in use.
I also use Brevent. You can look it up - it uses adb permission to prevent chosen apps from running in the background. It's a great tool.
All this should help but won't fix some of the poorly optimized animations.
I have the same problem.
Anyone can solve it?

LG G7 annoying RAM problem.

It seems to happen that when my G7 Thinq has no more free RAM left, kills running apps like Spotify, Play Music(not any more), Netflix and others. It kills them even I started recently, or I am listening to music, or I am using Maps while driving or streaming Netflix to Chromecast. So it makes no possible to use these apps normally. I am thinking of buying a new phone just because of that. Does anyone know a solution? I tried being updated, hard reset and uninstalling the apps that more RAM consume.
Wich Android version are you using? Had this problems with the stock verizon rom , too much bloat
Crossflashed the canadian android 10 and everything is miles better .
But uf you dont want to crossflash try to disable the carrier apps , if using chrome switch to a less ram intensive browser and avoid duplicated apps
i'm on android 10 and have the same problem it even disables live wallpapers

Some carriers have preinstalled apps like games and apps , some of them are very heavy on resources .
Are you using pie or android 10 ? May I suggest trying the smart doctor app , I usually advice against the use of the apps , but this looks like some background process that refuses to let go , run the smart doctor app , Is built in to the phone , after that close all the apps from the recent apps screen , reboot the phone and see if that helps .
If it persist , would you mind upload a screenshot of the ram usage ? It may give us a clue about whats happening .

Normal performance
Total memory 3.8 GB
