Unroot is done simply by flashing stock FW again, and voila - no root. So he do not need to affraid of that.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickbg321:
I'm having the same issue with the Polish firmware. Jelly Bean was advertised as being faster and smoother but after updating from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2 via Kies my phone became really laggy (menu animations are choppy as hell, some apps like the phone one take up to 3 seconds to start up) and occasionally there are some really annoying lock-ups where the phone becomes completely unresponsive for 1-2 min. I tried doing a factory reset but that didn't do much. Overall I'm really disappointed with the official 4.1.2 update. Will rooting my phone and installing a custom core like CoCore help in a noticeable way?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushilkr:
Yes,imo after installing CoCore,there will be a definite lag reduction. Much smoother.Dialer may still take time to open though.. for that you can use third party apps like exdialer which is much faster..

Hi all I upgraded my phone to Jellybean. I cleared all the data and cache after updating via Recovery. But the phone is laggy as hell. It just freezes if you open more than application. Screen becomes unresponsive. The apps that I have moved to SD card disappear from homescreen if you reatart the phone. Really very annoyed with the update. Gingerbread was butter smooth. Now I want your opinion. Should I go back to GB or should root it and install a custom kernel? Please help.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krichmond0306:
My Razr M over the past couple days has become increasingly "doggy" (for lack of a better word), by that I mean when touching an app on my screen it takes a few seconds to load,etc. I want to try to figure out what the issue is myself but I am not well versed in the best way to do this. When I look at the battery stats the top two drivers are 'Display' and 'Android System', which I think is fairly typical. I am not sure if it is a RAM issue or something is eating my Processing or what.

Any tips, ideas, suggestions and/or tricks that anyone can provide me with to troubleshoot this? I would greatly appreciate it.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PantherVT:
Check setting , apps, running apps and see if something is hogging memory. Wiping your caches will probably help too.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krichmond0306:
I am not sure at what line an app is considered to become a hog but here is the top 5 on my list

Settings (52MB)

Norton Mobile Security (23MB)

Swiftkey (24MB)

FaceBook (25MB)

Yep that's low. Do you have a ton of apps installed? If so have you tried Greenify to hibernate some while not in use? Freezing some bloat may help too

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] XxLostSoulxX:
Its called remove bloatware simple as that or better is that you go out and buy micro SD card. then do apps to SD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
see my shock face:

It's kind of ridiculous all the "extra" crap that gets packed in. I remember the Evo 4G had two navigation systems--Google and Navigo (I forget the name)--which I couldn't believe the redundancy. If companies are will to pay to have it on, the carriers will.

I like to blame Crapple masses, just because. But it's really there are more people who are just mindless and take what is given. Not all the preinstalled stuff is bad. It's just I don't want it like Facebook, Yahoo. But I do like the Sprint TV.

Ideally, I would love a barebones rom. The only thing that comes installed is Google Play. In setup, just have people pick from a list of the apps they want, like a few GAPPs install do. If you want something later, just have it available in Play. I don't even want the wallpapers. If they did that, it would save me a bunch of time for deleting all the stuff in Titanium Backup. Never mind the guessing work of what is safe and not.

That's one of the things I miss from Evo 4G, there were other like minded people, and at least person would do a barebones rom. I haven't seen this the GN2, yet. The custom roms I'm sure are nice, but for as much bloat they get rid of, they just have something else I don't want, and for me, it's still bloat.

The sad part about the eight gigs of preinstall apps, depending on the phone, that can be over have the internal storage on the phone. The smallest storage model being sixteen gigs,and some memory being used by OS or critical needs for the phone. Heck, the Sprint variant of the GN2 only came with sixteen gigs, with no other storage amounts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] shill1986:
My VZW GN2 also has (read: HAD) two navigation apps (one VZW installed). So yeah, take the 8gb of 16 taken by SamApps, then add in all the crap that the carrier will throw in (Verizon is notoriously bad) and your down to 35% storage or less no doubt. Sure, for us is not too big a deal but for others who don't mod it's horrible. What's worse, is in doing it you're actually "voiding the warranty", just for taking back space on the phone that you paid for. Asinine.

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Yeah, no ****, but for those who don't mod or root, it's a horrible prospect. Fact still remains they sell the phone with over half storage taken up, which is ridiculous. SD cards, bigger drives, and rooting are supposed to be optional, not required. He'll I have a 64gb, and I'm rooted and Modded, as well as deflated on my gn2, still see it as no bueno.

I used it rarely at first but use it almost every day now

I watch mlb baseball on one side while doing everything else on the other. Emails, texting, surfing, are all things I don't need on full screen.

Another great way to use it is in portrait mode where I have literature on the top, like a magazine or something I'm studying, even at church, while I can drag the mlb app to check scores quickly. My literature takes up most of the screen and I only need to use a tiny sliver of the screen at the bottom to check scores or text

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iwuz:
I've tried it to put both the nav part of google maps and a music player app on the screen, but honestly found it more effort than it was worth. My car has a rather firm suspension (understatement of year) so trying to tap tiny icons on a moving screen inbetween shifts is too much of a distraction.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] PagePlusFan1:
do you use with e-mail and internet at same time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nerys71:
I actually use it quite often. a couple of examples.

I keep my debit card (picture) in my phone (it has my picture on it)

I can multi window and have it on one half and the form I am entering it in on the other window.

I get a tracking number. its nearly impossible to SELECT a "hyperlink" selection of text (it copies the link instead of the numbers)

so muti window the tracking number in one window and my tracking app in the other window. type out the number.

I can't recall right off the bat but I use it quite a lot for many similar type functions.

I like being able to bring up a map of the area while I have direction in an e-mail or a google search and many other things I can't recall.

I figure I use it half a dozen times a week on average. VERY handy.

now mind you I run my machine at 240dpi AND altered it to allow any app to multi window both of which dramatically increases its usefullness!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lindanpoll:
I use it on occasion..while surfing the web and Facebook or recipes and notes. Love it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] deziking:
I dont use it because its very annyoing and getting tired of updating rooted rom manually and restoring everything and then bam you cant use all the apps in multi view now I have to flash ma7 mutliview all apps apk. Very annyoing wish it would auto update in stock root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nerys71:
well that is a consequence of your constant rom changing. you should know that is a side effect of rom hopping. it sucks but its the nature of the beast.

multi window is not something you use often but you REALLY love it when you "DO" need it.

but again it works a lot better at higher resolutions (240dpi) :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] k3v0:
Sure. You could use this mod in tablet or phablet mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cujo2344:
Love the Xposed MOD,

I only used multiwindow a couple of times with the stock program.

But once I loaded the mod I can use my video player, Dolphin and my slingplayer. Now I use it all the time to surf web/email and watch shows.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] austontatious:
Its one of those features that is more useful once you start using it, if that makes any sense. Once I started using it a little, I found lots of times where it was more convenient to drag and drop a second window than to click back and forth between 2 apps. Especially if you watch any video on your phone, that's when its really nice. I can keep watching whatever while in respond to email or text.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] japugh0578:

It's definitely a great feature! I don't use it a lot, but it's very nice to have when you do need/want to use it!! I didn't find it very useful stock(but was only stock for about a week), but once on a custom it's awesome since you can use every app on your phone in multi-window!!
