I don't have lag neither it might have been their units maybe someone install something that weren't supposed to, I do not have any lag
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Narcistic:
Not lagging here at all... So not sure what was going on
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jxs1984:
did you try rebooting the phone?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] pterry30:
I have the Telus Galaxy s 3, there is no lag and it is smooth and super fast compared to my galaxy note.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Aridon:
Zero lag.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] benefit14snake:
This thing runs circles around my razr maxx running aokp. It is decently quicker than my transformer prime too.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Neverendingxsin:
Its hard to judge a phones performance based on demo units. Think about how many people come into the store and mess around with the phone doing god knows what, installing who knows what, etc. Only way to really judge the performance is to play with a brand new one.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nabbed:
When people say zero lag, most of the time it is because their standards ridiculously low. They might be coming from a much slower device, or they really treasure their phone and subconsciously ignore lag. Whatever the case, there's definitely lag with the TW launcher. I use Apex, and there is much less lag with that launcher.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] benefit14snake:
Haha I had some lag from time to time but then I flashed a debloated rom and this phone flies. Too much crap on the US phones - like always. This Snapdragon cpu is pretty sick! I get great battery life and thats comming from a razr maxx, but then again I am no longer using the power sucking verizon lte network.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] xoltrix2000:
I appreciate all the replies. It definitely helps to provide some perspective. I will definitely try the phone with the 15 day return option JUST in case and see how this baby runs with de-bloated roms.

Thanks!

Don't root if you plan on returning. Just an FYI Samsung seems to have done a fast job porting ics onto the gs3. A lot of the apps are actually compiled in gingerbread which lack GPU and other performance enhancements
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] skalatsky:
You can root just make sure you use the root method that does not activate the counter. It's a sticky in the development section.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] xoltrix2000:
Pick it up finally from Bell yesterday... HORRY SHEET! As expected, this thing is mind blasting! I did not think Google Maps could lock and navigate any faster, seriously.

Only thing that is sad is a lot of the games do not work for it yet. Can't wait till that happens.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Halmo:
Mine runs with no lag at all and can run GTA 3 at max settings no problem. It was probably just because those demo devices are being used all the time and get so much crap on them. I would not trust any demo device for performance.

What games don't work for you?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] awsrasool:
I got the white one from bell and to tell you the truth I can feel it lagging a bit at times ... nothing huge but you can clearly see that some frames are being skipped ... nothing as bad as my old desire z ... games take a while to load but once loaded it's smooth as butter ...

Same here, blue. This phone is ridiculously fast. Lag free.

Not that it matters

I usually hit about 4500 but never clear memory or back ground apps. Here's my latest, memory cleared. Completely stock no root.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] xoltrix2000:
Any game from Gameloft, aside from UNO. I had Order and Chaos, Modern Combat 3, Nova 2, Dungeon Hunter 1, 2 and 3, Asphalt. On the Play site it says they are not compatible with my device. Maybe it's because it's an i747 and not a i9300.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
I'm coming from AOKP on a Galaxy Nexus. One of my favorite devices. Although its not AOKP, I'm not even rooted; my LTE Galaxy Nexus is running smooth. Besides the LTE and blazing data speeds I like having 2GB RAM. So in time I will root it and make it even better. But for now, its working great as is.

As for games, I got this a few weeks ago and some games that didn't work at first are now working. As more carriers release it I believe more games will become available. Mass Effect for example, now works. The game looks great and I recommend getting it. That and Dead Trigger are worth gettting.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nabbed:
I did some fun testing on my Epic Touch running Calkulin's GB latest (2 months ago) rom against SGS3 running Blazer rom (1.0, with custom edits by myself).

In terms of loading apps, there was no contest. Epic Touch was faster for almost every app I tried. It was probably related to the fact that Blazer/Stock sgs3 roms use very drawn out animations, plus newer, more complex versions of apps.

On the other hand, the fact that phone, calendar, contacts, gmail, youtube, google play, and some others app, I don't recall now, load faster on Epic Touch than on sgs3, well, that makes me feel a bit sad about this new phone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TurboWolf:
Hello everyone,

I have a 64gb Rooted Prime.

I was wondering, is there a specific App that works well with PDF's?

I've tried to use the "My Library, however the number of pdf books I have are near 600 -

Why so many? I go to a larp (Live action roleplay) and from time to time (every session really) someone needs a specific book to look up a rule or power for their character.

I've used EZpdf and its allows for fast searching, however it's somewhat awkward to navigate the actual pdf.

Along with a PDF reader, if anyone has some suggestions for their favorite or recommended apps - feel free to let me know.

Thanks

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniAndroidian:
I came also from Gingerbread CM7 and I had the bug with the clock too but wifi was working fine for me.

I think you have to do a clean install (wipe cache etc...) after that everything is working. Make a backup with TitaniumBackup to save your data. ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oliie23:
I remember reading somewhere that it was a software not hardware problem so JB could have a fix for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
I've never had an overheating problem. I also don't recall many having that problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
Overheating? I've never had any of my phones overheat, on GB, ICS or JB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Are people really having serious overheating (as in phone crashing or shutting down from heat) on a stock device? I have a feeling anyone overheating on ICS is running a custom ROM with voltage changes or overclocks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oliie23:
My GNex on AOKP and stock voltages does overheat while, for example, playing Modern Combat 3.

Ok maybe overheat is a wrong term a bit since it never crashed or force closed. It just gets fairly hot in the area above camera.

And I'm asking people who did have the problem and upgraded to JB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colts187:
My GNex does seem to be running hotter than normal on JB than ICS but not by much. No serious overheating problems at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Getting hot and overheating are completely different. The phone gets hot where the battery and processor are, that's just how its going to be, especially when playing 3D games.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oliie23:
No no, my battery stays fairly cool (39 celsius degrees) but the area above camera compared to that is really hot. Way too hot than I think it should be. My previous phone - HD2 was never that hot unless I overclocked it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Around the camera is where the processor etc. is. The HD2 is also severely less powerful than the Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ogrady94:
My cdma nexus doesnt seem to get as hot. I havent really noticed it as much as i did on ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
I've been getting overheating since Jelly Bean. Keep in mind that google "improved" things by ramping the CPU up when the screen is touched, even if it's to do a simple task that doesn't require full CPU power... this might exacerbate the overheating issue if you're actively using your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Way less then usual. Maybe 50% less. when it does it gets a bit hotter.

So in conclusion I think it's better at this job then ics.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tbbo514:
Wtf I can't run mc3 just keeps force closing and a ton if others on gnex have that issue I wish I knew why because Gameloft is no help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Do u have 2D rendering whatever it's called on???

Turned mine off when playing GL games. And it's better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
It doesn't ramp it to full clock speed, it ramps it up one step, or two, whatever.

Ramping it up to full speed on every touch would murder the battery.

Sent via some sort of internet thing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
I've tested it. It ramps one CPU to full clock speed when you move your finger around the screen.

Try it yourself. I wish I could turn that feature off since using Swype has now become an issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
While on ICS, it'd get up to around 70°C. Now on JB, it usually tops at around somewhere in the 60s°C.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sham63:
I seem to have an issue with my internal storage in the Settings app. When I select Storage to display how much I have used it showed 277 mb used in Pictures,videos. I had about 16 pictures/videos in there, along with a bunch of "empty" places. I deleted those empty places and cleared the cache, no difference. I checked the gallery and it showed the same pictures, along with videos from a couple of games, and one game I had uninstalled, Shadowgun. There were two videos and two "empty" videos for Shadowgun. I deleted these four, and instead of going down the amount of space used for Pictures, videos actually went up to 410 mb used. One more thing on these videos, the two were the same, except that one had a path listed under details and the other one did not. All four were the same size, about 30 mb. Any ideas?

Jim
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
You could try using SD Maid to help you out. Sometimes thumbnails generated by the gallery result in huge (300+ mb) sizes (SD Maid could get rid of them and additional unneeded files for you).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] b22ri22an:
I'm also having problems with internal storage, I'm getting low space warnings with almost nothing installed. I reloaded from stock image and after reinstalling my apps it said I was only using 1gb, my tablet is used as a car stereo so no photos are taken and all media is on the sd card but now 3 days later it says I am using 4gb of internal storage without adding any new apps or adding anything to the tablet also I am noticing my tablet lag horribly sometimes when coming out of sleep. any help would be appreciated
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Romman0:
Since you have it in your car, I'm guessing your using GPS nav?

There seems to be a bug with the GPS caching. Check the data/GPS folder for a ton of dated txt files (something like gl-2012-07-01-9573859.txt). And delete them. That folder can grow to a few gb of space of not cleared.

You will have to be rooted to see and mod the GPS folder. Your only other option if you not rooted is to factory reset.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] b22ri22an:
Its good to know whats causing it I will probably stray away from using the gps as much.

I'm not rooted and probably wont root as I am only weeks away from swapping out the acer a100 for a nexus 7. I already have a buyer lined up for my a100 and don't want to risk anything before the sale

i hav noticed that android phones day to day its getn slower than the previous day.. [it may not b a problm for 512mb or more phones curently exist..]

mine is xperia x10i.. if today i rebooted my phone.. the whole today my phone is faster in scrolling, connecting cals, menus, games. etc.. then tomoro phne gets slightly slow.. then on 3rd day develops lag in srolling and it takes lot of time to open apps and option.. and on 4th day the phne gets heavy slow.. widgets operate dead slow.. and if i do anythn force close errors..

why is this happening??due to day to day internal memory caches?? i also noticed 1st day remainin ram wil b around 50mb inclusive of all widgets iam using.. then at the end 4thday remaining ram wil b around 20mb or even somtimes 10mb..

if i close all widets and som running apps and allow ram to be free back to 50mb again, still the phone is dead slow.. so this slow is not depending on ram.. som othr reason..may b som kind internal issues developing..

so lik i said if i rebooted the phone after 4days.. the phone is back to normal healthy fast and very responsive.. in my case i hav to reboot every 2 or 3 days in order for the phone to be ready and fast for anythn..othrwise feels lik throw to dustbin.

i saw this kind of behavior in othr phones too lik xperia arc..it needs to reboot around 5 or 6 days or its too dead slow..

actualy wat is happening behind??

[General Questions and Answers] multia:
services

If you have ICS, you can pull out the task list (the tasklist icon or long press home) and slide the tasks out of the memory.

In other android versions, you can go into the "manage applications" menu and force stop programs and even services, there are also taskmanagers/taskkillers that can do this automatically for you.

I also noticed that having a lot of SMS messages (like >2000) may slow down the messaging app (which doesn't seem like very good handling)

I don't know if you used ADB,ddms and the rest of android sdk before, but with that you can get a good look on the real time memory use of every process and what the system is actually doing. (logcat may help too)

I recommend you to try Samsung galaxy s2, I have 45pages of apps, over 168hours up-time, the phone still smooth as first day. :)

And I'm not overclock it. :)
[General Questions and Answers] mahesh911:
well thanks for the replies....

even if services r force closed and eliminated by task managers. it just allows som free ram..but still the phone is very lagy.. wat i tink is may b der will be som phone internal memory caches in wich it gets overloaded and processing all that will take time.. by rebooting its been cleared and starts loading again...

x10 wil become dead slow after 4 to 5 days if all homescreens ar free.... in its official sony rom.. dats y i switched to custom rom so that tweaking is possible to fine tune the processes..

Galaxy S2 is beyond compare.. 1gb ram and dual core.. may b a galaxy S2 wil get slow too may b after or withn 2 weeks of continuos use... for quad..it may take 3 or 4 weeks to become slow.. i tink..

iam just researching to minimise this problm and allow users to atleast survive 4 days of full lag free and fast activenes..or may b an application cud help..

anyway..wat i ws saying.. abt phones having ram 512 or below.. is having problms lik dis....to understand dis problm may b v require to learn real android structure ..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burgscheinkerkdeiktraast:
Hey,

some folks made me think about CyanogenMod9 as it is supposed to be better than stock.

But when I saw CyanogenMod9 I noticed it looks differently compared to the stock I mean especially some features which I like.

This is why I'd like to ask if some of them are available in CM9 and if they're part of TouchWiz would it be possible to install such features as external app (or mod).

Is in CM9 such look of dialer?

What about feature when you are in the contacts and can just slide right\left for SMS\Call? (green field on the picture)

Would Call window look same?

Overall those are TouchWiz features which I like and for me are "a must". But i'd like to try CM9 too :)

The last question regards camera - often in custom roms camera is really piece of crap compared to the stock ROM.

Can you say CM 9 camera is at minimum level of stock ROM camera quality? Doesn't it have many crashes and bugs?

Thx :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vurda:
1. Depends on Rom (but you always able to have this feature with exDialler, love it)

2. Depends on Rom.

There is a lot of new kernels that provides you "dual-boot" feature in CWM so after installing such kernel you will be able to experiment without worries.

Also you always able to create a backup from CWM menu and return to your previous ROM if you do not like new one.
