Hello,
I get major stuttering every 7-10 seconds in both GTA VC and GTA III on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The framerate issue is not corelated in any way to what is actually being shown on the screen - it just stutters, it doesnt matter if its a police chase or a quiet interior.
The weird thing is that for the first 5-10 minutes the game runs absolutely great with no framerate issues whatsoever, and then it begins - major slowdowns every few seconds without a reason.
What is the possible solution? My android version is 4.2.1
Help?
[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?

Hi,
I was wondering if any of you have had any lag with Snapchat on the 5X. I have had problems with Snapchat from since I got the phone at launch, updated the app a few times and I have the current version. Half of the time it works smoothly, and half the time it is a mess, laggy and freezing when swiping between the camera/stories/etc. It's worst when I have FB Messenger chat heads on. It also makes the whole phone lag even when it's in recent apps but not open.
I have a 32GB version (I doubt this makes any difference), rooted with TWRP but no real modifications. Is this a marshmallow issue? I've never had this problem in the past on 5.1.1 and prior (Nexus 5, Oneplus One, Moto G, Xperia Z3C among others).
Thanks all.
I'm with you dude. The Nexus 4 had a camera hardware defect that would freeze the phone once every few pictures. I will be furious if SnapChat come up with a "GOOGLE'S FAULT NEXUS 5X HARDWARE PROBLEM" excuse again.
Exactly the same issue as me. I use snapchat almost every day and its a ridiculous mess. My sister has a Moto G 3rd Gen with 2GB of RAM and it is so smooth. So I don't understand why it hasn't been optimized for the 5X yet, no reason for all this lag! Several times its locked up my phone and won't exit to the home screen.

I still have my Xperia Z3 Compact and I have no issues with it. It's ridiculous. No other app gives me problems.
I thought I had some issues but I noticed the same thing in Stock and Chroma using ElementalX. I notice the IO usage in my system monitor hits nearly 100 MB/s for 3-4 seconds while the phone locks up.
Same. I am part of the beta and posted bug reports about lag and freezes on the 5X and 6P (idk if the 6P has the issue). I doubt it will do anything, but doesn't hurt to let out my frustration
I have the same issue. Hope this is something a Snapchat update can fix
Same problem with my 32GB version N5X, not only thirdparty apps, but also the Google camera app. I don't want to use the camera any more and I miss my Nexus5 with marshmallow which works so smoothly.

I'm in the same boat. Rebooting fixes it temporarily. It's a pain in the ass.
same problem with snapchat freezing and being incredibly slow while my 2013 n5 was always buttery smooth. also have other weird camera ****, like vivino capturing pictures upside down and ****. really really irritating and basically my only problem with the n5x
Just got the 9.19.1.0 Beta and it seems to be working better. I'll need to give it a couple hours to see if the usual lag kicks in.

Seemed like a lot of people are having the lag issue with N5X camera. Google should fix this problem, otherwise I want to get a refund.
Google camera lags not only within the app itself but also slows down the Android system.
I have already contacted google to get a replacement. Hopefully the new phone doesn't have camera issue.

Does that mean this is a hardware issue which cannot be fixed by new FW? Bad news for me, I'm in PRC and I bought my n5x through an unusual way, it's almost impossible to do RMA.[emoji24]

I hear you all. Same problem with Snapchat here.
Considering a uninstall.
Disabling access to the camera actually fixes it. But then again..
me too i have the same issue laggy and freezing since i bought the phone and when th
me too i have the same issue laggy and freezing since i bought the phone and when they download the update 6.0.1 the problem still the same I don't know why still and sometimes the camera app laggy I hope is anyone can help us with issue really I felt bored from the phone
So I am a power snapchat user and had this same problem and might have accidentally stumbled on a possible solution after having a login failure. I enabled the travel mode so it's not downloading constantly. I installed snapprefs and I can't explain why but it's flying now. No lag on window switching or opening the camera. I'm on 6.0.1 December rooted
I'm on 6.0.1 and Snapchat version 9.20.5 with Snapprefs installed.. the app is almost unusable.
It's definitely app-side issues because I too suffered from terrible lag and stuttering on Snapchat only for a long, long time but then a few updates seemed to fix it. Now it's back to being bad again with MM 6.0.1...... hopefully they will fix it soon
any issues with snapchat still?

Still issues.
In general my 5X seems to lag when the camera is in use
I was having these major snapchat issues while on stock and while on some of sonicron's tweaks to the ElementalX kernel, however snapchat has been purring along ever since I went to the PureNexus ROM (includes it's own kernel, not sure if there is anything special about it). Used snapchat all weekend during my partying and not one issue with no reboots required.
There's an article reported by Android Authority about freezing problems twisted to opening Contacts, but that's not the issue I'm having here. I just want to share some minor issues I've encountered in my Note 8 after a month and a half of obtaining the best mobile of 2017.
1. Launching the camera app from lock screen. I don't know why it's doing it all of a sudden now, but when I open it from there, the camera opens, but then it restarts itself a second or so later as if I unlocking the phone. I narrowed it down to seeing it's something related to the Bluetooth Smart Lock function for doing that, so disabling that won't have that problem again. Don't know why it comes down to being this since I actually don't want to wear out double pressing my power button.
2. I've been addicted to a music rhythm game and I notice some incredibly minor lag hiccups that appear when I just open the game after a while. It's not an insufferable problem unlike the lags I experienced in the S7 Edge, but it's just a very minor issue I would like to point out.
Any other issues you guys run into with performance and UI experiences and have any solutions?
Throw it out.

get a samsung rep at a service center to reflash firmware, or ask carrier for exchange, or contact samsung and file a RMA repair, or get desperate and use ODIN to flash firmware, or simply do a FDR master reset and setup as NEW DEVICE without restoration of backups.
Hello!
My phone has been left aside for several months because of a ghost touch problem, recently I had the screen replaced in order to fix the problem, but now I have a problem with choppy scrolling animations. The screen seems to be running fine at 60hz (refresh rate test and youtube videos), performance in games also seem to be fine. Is there any fix for this?
Thanks!
Did you get the original screen? If you didnt get the original display, that might be the issue.
