[Q] S6 Edge Lag and stutter

So I got the S6Edge and its suppose to be lag free most of the time, but mine lags when typing and sometimes misses letters I type, also the touchwiz launcher sometimes freezes and switching apps lag and stutter, google chrome and the Samsung browser aren't smooth at all, they suffer from freeze and lag, what can I do?
Will flashing stock firmware remove lag?
Start ing to regret this phone, I paid $1000 for it and there's lag..

Yes thats what im thinking also, this supposed to bw the fastest phone amd t still lags . I had the Nexus 6 , Moto 2014 and the Htc m8 all of them with zero lag. From Galaxy s6 edge I take out the camera and everything else is a fail.

I don't have these issues. I would go ahead and start fresh.

I have no lag or stutter at all. I'm rooted.
The only issue is a not so good battery life but it's been fixed by using airplane mode at home where I literally have no signal and depend on WiFi calling anyway.
If you had to update via OTA then I suggest you re-flash the stock ROM as that doesn't seem to have issues while the OTA might have introduced a few

The better fix for the battery issue has been to reflash the stock recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6-edge/help/rooting-deep-sleep-t3079385

Yeah mine does it too. I'm very close to returning my phone. I have gone through two so far, my third one will be delivered today. If this has stutter as well along with GPS issues, I'm done. I have less than 7 days left in my buyers remorse period. So It is now or never.
I may try the M9, but I honestly think I'm just gonna use my iPhone 6 until the Nexus 2015 or Note 5 is available.

I was in your boat too. Try the suggestion above. There is something with the update they pushed that is not only killing the battery but makes the entire phone lag. Follow the thread posted above and clear cache and do a full reset. I was literally going to go get an M9 2 days ago before I did this. Entirely different phone now. I got 15 hours today with over 4 hours screen on time and zero lag.

Okay cool I'll give it a try. On another note though it appears to have been hardware issues. My GPS was broken so it kept seeking location which dropped my battery way down. It also just couldn't find my location. I have cleared cache and done all that jazz with it and even used GPS Fix to no avail. So far this new replacement seems to be doing the job.
I'll take a look at not doing the OTA.

You should do the ota, but then clear cache and reset to factory afterwards.

Just to clarify once you do the ota update you will want to power off the phone and then hold the volume up + home button + power button. Once booted into clear cache and then do a factory reset.

Just my two cents, I think this is a memory leak issue. I've seen the phone start to get bogged down but with a quick restart, the smoothness returns as it should. I'm hoping that 5.1 will fix this memory leak.

If all else fails try this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3079176
Helped clear up a lot of things for many people. My main issue was fast battery drain. Seems to be a lot better now. I'm a pretty heavy user so this helped me.

I would go ahead and start fresh.

Android O problems

I have seen a lot of weird android O problems put up here, is it really that buggy or are their a lot of you rooting and running things that aren't necessarily tailored to O yet? Just curious, I don't have it yet but as soon as it is made available to my Pixel XL I will download it, I just want to make sure it isn't a giant bucket of bugs.

I haven't had any issues, I was able to update with OTA before Google pulled it the first time. Mine updated normally, havent had any weird reboots or behavior on my device yet.
I am unlocked running pure stock, enrolled in the beta atm

I haven't had any issues either. It's been performing very well and Bluetooth works great for me on everything I've tried it with.

I did a clean factory image. Rooted and suhide. Many of the TiBu apps had to be deleted and data restored, but that happens between different ROMs, so it's no surprise. Battery drain seems higher than PN or PixelDust, but it's too early to tell for sure. Push notifications are taking longer than on 7.1.2 for gmail, outlook, and wickr. But, no bugs so far to report.

Awesome, so I guess since I am not rooted or unlocked and not using any non android O approved apps (that I know of) I have a very small chance of bugs. Thanks. I really do appreciate it, sets my nerves at ease.

I am stock Oreo from the beta. Battery life sucks, like awful. I have done 2 fresh install too. Volume is extremely low. Tested it with my wife's pixel running N and her volume is considerably louder.

Battery life with Oreo and I don't have that great of reception.

Got Oreo on my Pixel XL via the beta.
No reports yet of problems with volume or battery life, but one of the new features "picture-in-picture", is not working for me at all. Google support have told me its a known issue and are working on it.
Like Partridge's extendable table, it's not a deal-breaker.

PiP only works with YouTube red or if you modify your nav bar to have a custom button to do it for youtube. And go to chrome watch a video in full screen then press home it'll work that way.

Not sure what's happening but when I was on dp4 and now on Oreo official the battery life has been the best it's ever been since I bought the phone back in 2016.

My experience has gotten better over the last day or so. The first 24hrs felt very janky. Since it has settled in and I'm happy with the performance.

When you guys did a fresh install did you restore all of your settings etc from the cloud? Or are you manually resetting your phone back up?

Only bug I've seen is PIP. This release has fixed my bluetooth issues(controls sometimes not working with my Jaybird X2's, Moto 360 constantly disconnecting with having issues getting it to reconnect even after reboots of phone and watch). Bluetooth issues have been my only complaint with the phone and those started for me only after the first OS update(7.?.?). I flashed the factory image and restored from cloud backup. Very happy so far.

Has anyone had notification sound problems? When I get a notification the sound plays at least twice or more.

I perform the OTA as beta program first and use it for 5-10 mins.
Later I decided to perform a facotry reset, during the wifi setup, I found that the phone cannot recognize my hidden wifi. In the end, I found that the phone could not find wifi channel 11, 12 or 13 from my router AC68U. I manually set the channel to 4 and the wifi was connected.
Last time I saw the same issue was on my Kindle Voyage.

OnePlus 5t Issues (Day 90)

So, I use my op5t as my primary device.
I test my applications on it(Android developer), i listen to songs and i do all the normal things on my phone, Nothing abnormal like intensive gaming/ using it while charging or anything.
From last 1/1.5 weeks my phone is over heating it goes above 41C(CPU-Z readings) while doing normal things like listening to songs on wynk(It runs in the background), using whatsapp and instagram only. I don't use snapchat that often or any camera app (barely 15 minutes in 24 hours);
So i thought its getting warm in bangalore, It maybe because of it.
But 41C isn't normal for such a less use and that too not even in the direct sun.
And from last 3 days as i test/debug my applications on my device, The developer option should be enabled, and it was enabled from day 1 i got my phone.
Now while testing apps, My developer options suddenly gets disabled by itself(No module in app is playing with the system settings at any point), and now this is happening like 2-3 times a day in the time span of 5 hours of testing applications.
I Always make sure after debugging my applications that i restart my phone to free ram/ uninstall the app i was testing, clear the cache, stop background applications, stop applications that are using mobile data in the background.
Any suggestions on the overheating and developer options being disabled by itself?
I've posted the problem about the developer options on oneplus community but i would like to get more advices on if its a bug or just my usage is more than i actually think it is.
Thank you~ :good:

Perhaps a factory reset!/flash stock firmware, I always say this but if problems persist after this then you really have a problem

Agreed but it could solve the problem, it could not, you don't know the cause, going back to out the box stock is a good start

get to stock|factory reset
had an issues with overheating in test by antutu(in net mentioned that there is no no overheating problems)
after a reset 33celcius
try it out

I'm not at all a fan of "factory reset".
It's much better to do a full wipe (fastboot format userdata).
And then do a stock ROM install (or whatever ROM you want).
If you've experienced corruption somewhere in the system files, then a factory reset may not fix that.

I fixed it. In my Moto x style I fixed this problem by letting the phone to at the highest it can and it fixes it self.
For my Op5t it never went to 45. It went to 45 and now even if I charge it or do the same tasks when I used to do when it got really hot, it's barely 33 now.?*?*?*

So I had a Moto x style and it went hot, really hot. And I was fed up because of it as I thought it's a malfunction in the phone and something's wrong. So I used to be scared that if went to hot it will catch fire or smthng. So I just one day let it go as warm as it can and it went to 45-46 and came back to 35 again and after that it's just normal temperature.
Same with my OnePlus5t. I listen to songs+charge it. So it goes really hot as it shouldn't because I'm not doing any big tasks. So one day I just left it on charging with music on. It went to 42 and it came back to 35. Now while listening to songs and charging my op barely goes to 35.
I don't know if it's a good.fix or.not but it always works for me. I've tied this on my friends Moto x play too just 1 day ago and it worked like magic

Facebook app VERY slow/battery charging slow

Is it just me or is the Facebook app VERY slow? For the past few weeks it's been ridiculously slow for me, I mean taking a full 5-10 seconds to load anything after I tap the app icon. Always used to be lightning quick but now it's not. A couple other apps seem to be a bit slower also but Facebook is by far the most noticeable. ??? Any ideas?
My battery has been draining a little faster than normal lately but even worse than that it seems to be charging very slowly, not like before. I've read the recent March OTA is to blame for that, is that correct? Any ideas for this? I thought about doing a factory reset but that's a hassle setting everything up again. Just tough it out until April OTA? Or another fix?
Thank you!

Sorry my post is no help to you. Just ranting.

yep add another one, this was quite smooth before the march update on my xl, don't know wtf google is doing, but with every update they **** something else up.

If you have Xposed, go into the installer, hit the 3 dot menu on the top right I think, and choose optimize apps now.
If you don't have it installed, seems like you've already done the usual clearing cache/data.
If you haven't already, try a simple reboot of your device?

I read one user complaining of that on the comments for the update at that site. Just one. Not sure the camera thing is a crisis. Since I'm on the US version and our updates seem to follow a few weeks later, I can't say that with personal confirmation though.

I'm in France and I haven't received the June security patch, and I haven't received this one yet :/

Sounds like a Google Play Services problem, along with RCSservice.
There are some tips in this thread
When GPS starts acting up it's usually syncronisation errors, sometimes it's down to bad reception or it's just gone and tied itself up in knots.
Try uninstalling your Google account. Then go into airplane mode. Delete the app data for
Google Backup transport
Google Play Services
Google Play store
Google Services Framework
Restart your phone
Enable the network
Log into your Google account again
Keep on the wifi for ten minutes or so to let everything sync with no errors.
This will force the phone to re syncronise with fresh data. Hopefully squashing the Play Services error that's causing your power drain.
The other thing to try is download Google Play Services Beta from APK mirror. Download it, go into airplane mode, install it, then repeat steps listed above.

I still have great battery life und still can make great Pictures
Look 13h39min standy and 3h Screen on, and WiFi on all time, surfing on internet, watching small videos etc. and still 80%.

Camera works fine for me and battery is better than on the June patch so far.

I tried Magisk 16.6 and found that I lost DRMfix. I tried downloading the zip and flashing with Xperiafix 3, but same result. The only version that worked was 16.3.
Xposed v90.2 beta3 doesn't work on any firmware newer than April, that said there is some feedback on the XZ Permium thread that V90.2 beta2 does work on later firmware, but a number of modules fail to load afterwards.
I am on old .75 firmware, Xposed works and I can't be bothered to chase the constant upgrades trail any more.
Maybe if P ever comes to the XZ1c I might think about it, but historically, version changes of android that are different from the original released version that came with the hardware always run badly and use more battery.

Xposed v90.2 beta3 doesn't work on any firmware newer than April, that said there is some feedback on the XZ Permium thread that V90.2 beta2 does work on later firmware, but a number of modules fail to load afterwards.
I am on old .75 firmware, Xposed works and I can't be bothered to chase the constant upgrades trail any more.
Maybe if P ever comes to the XZ1c I might think about it, but historically, version changes of android that are different from the original released version that came with the hardware always run badly and use more battery.

That was a silly mistake from me, just pulled the OTA update when the phone was right out of the box without checking last incompatibilities and issues.
So it seems that the only route to have full things right it's a downgrade. And I suppose it's impossible without a full wipe, am I correct?

I think you can use Sonys Emma to downgrade, but as I've not used it, I don't know if you can keep your data partition. Sorry.
To recap: firmware. 75 and Xposed 16.3 works perfectly, modules work ok.
