[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott.deagan:
You mean a mobile site like this:

http://mobile.pcmag.com/?origref=ht...a188a7e-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition

I tested the above on several devices, here are the results:

Acer Iconia W3 (Windows 8): rendered in "tablet mode" (scroll from right to left). Not very smooth. When rendered in desktop mode, very smooth and fluid.

iPad Mini (iOS 7): rendered in tablet mode by default (scroll from right to left). Very smooth and fluid in both desktop and tablet modes.

BlackBerry Z10 (BB OS 10.1): did not render. Message displayed: "Sorry, your device is not supported".

iPhone 5 (iOS 7): rendered in mobile mode by default. Very smooth and fluid in both desktop mode and mobile mode.

Note 3 (Android 4.3): rendered in mobile mode by default. Extremely choppy. Scrolling was unbearable. In desktop mode it was much better, but still exhibited micro lag (some stutter).

Nexus 4 (Android 4.3): rendered in mobile mode by default. Extremely choppy. Scrolling was unbearable. Was much better in desktop mode, although micro lag still present.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wicked1683:
Thanks for the info mate... But FYI, Micro-stutter/Lag happens a lot in Touchwiz and "rarely" happen on stock Android or other Custom roms like Cyanogenmod

This proves that the main problem is really in Touchwiz. Maybe poor coding of the Devs in Samsung. And instead of improving this, they keep on adding "Bloats" which makes Touchwiz even worst
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott.deagan:
While TouchWiz may exacerbate the symptoms, I do not believe it is the root cause. See my post above where test several devices, including a Nexus 4 running stock Android.

Android is a virtualized platform, there's no denying that. There's also no denying that a virtualized platform will always take a performance hit. While custom ROMs may be able to slightly improve things, there's no escaping the Android performance overhead. Perhaps using the NDK and minimising the Android-to-NDK calls/hops might be a solution, but I don't know enough about Android to say for sure.

What I can say for sure is that despite all the marketing (e.g. Project Butter), more and more people are becoming aware of the issue. It seems the only thing Google are able to do is to post ambiguous blogs (i.e Diane Hackborn's "True facts about Android Graphics") and to try and convince folks there is no problem, and if there is, the app developers are to blame. There are also those who perpetuate the false dichotomy that users must choose between "features or performance".

The end result is users have to swallow a substandard experience. You can only fool the masses for so long before folks start waking up to the truth.

"You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!"
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johndrmr:
I don't know if anyone has discovered this but I noticed that if you run one of the live wallpapers, scrolling lag is much less. This tells me that the problem is not so much hardware/software related as it is a kernel issue. Maybe they were a little too conservative with the throttling. I'm assuming that the live wallpaper primes the kernel so to speak. In any case, I found it interesting. I'm going to see how running the live wallpaper effects battery life.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaungregg:
I dunno I just opened that site you tested your devices on using Chrome on My Note 3, in both mobile and desktop there was no lag although the desktop version seemed faster. I opened up 15 tabs and flipped it back and forth between portrait and landscape and still couldn't induce any stutter. I had the S4 and it lagged badly until I put a custom rom on it, I'm running stock rom now rooted with only a few T-Mobile apps removed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpufrost:
Around here, we call that jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. ;)

I have Nova Prime, set animations to faster than light and use revolving door for transitions. Even makes "slower" devices like the Note2 smooth as butter at noon in the Caribbean. :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott.deagan:
Why must you turn this thread INTO A HOUSE OF LIES? I've uploaded a YouTube video. Even though YouTube downgrades the frame-rate, you can still see how jittery and choppy scrolling is. This is just one example, I often come across such sites that perform badly on my Note 3, but work smoothly and fluidly on my iDevices.

I challenge you to produce a YouTube video to prove me wrong!

Dalvik has JIT since A 2.2.

The question is if its optimizer is on par with the "real" Java JIT like HotSpot. Java today has a performance equal or surpassing C code.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi7chy:
What kind of iDiot uses a POS mobile web site like mobile.pcmag.com to prove something? Scroll a few times on that site and it stops dead with a full screen ad. View it in desktop mode where it's fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letsgophillyingeneral:
Yeah I don't get this scroll lag. At all...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techweed:
I have unacceptable stutter with almost every browser out there. Ugly stutter. Only Chrome Beta comes close to a stutter free experience.

I also have stuttering in YouTube. Every few seconds it looks like it freezes every so slightly, as if the video is pausing for a very short amount of time. Audio sounds fine though. My Note 2 and every other device, including my hacked HP Touchpad, play back the same videos just fine.

This behavior in such a top notch device is simply unacceptable. Samsung better get its act together and issue an update to their software because right now it might as well be beta. Pretty pathetic.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simonna:
If you didn't root and delete bloatware yet, I think it's happens to you 'cause of crapware, and by the way, Note 3 has even more crapware than Note 2, so I don't wonder why it's works slower, and also try to force GPU rendering in developer settings, and to completely disable S-voice if you didn't do it yet.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techweed:
I have already done everything you listed here and more. I have noticed zero change in performance. Still stuttering in scrolling in browser and still stuttering in YouTube. It's really frustrating.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidstech11:
Maybe it's the apps installed. I have not had any issues like that. Still stock.

I had a issue with my device in that every time it turned on it would reboot over and over about 3-5 times before stopping. Wiped everything even though I didn't want to deal with all that and to my surprise it stopped rebooting over and over. It now works great. Was using my Nexus 5 and iPhone 5s so long I forgot how much I love having a IR blaster controlling my TV/DVR.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakhan86:
Who said iPhone doesnt lag? I recently sold my iPhone 5 because of poor battery life and lag on the sites I visit. Yes its browser is a bit more polished but to say the device is lag free is just plain ignorant.

iPhone 5 sometimes lags while opening bbm on iOS7, Facebook lags occasionally and sometimes closes without reason.

Now when I ask Apple fans what the solution is, they say buy top of the line phone which at the moment is 5S.

Hence, I switched to Note 3 for better battery and plenty more features. :o

Anyone can help me? Maybe a better question... How to remove the axle (in the picture) connecting clips with watch?

You have to push the tube which connects both parts (watch and clip) from one side with smth thin enough. The tube will be moved and the clip liberated.

Update: The v2 resolves the "cannot add video track" with the camera app and the crashing with .3gp files.

ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Blueangel/WM5_ArcsoftMMSv2_From_Universal.CAB

Well it works, you need to have the second patched version from mamaich, and do a softreset after installing the cab..

For people with other devices just follow the instructions bellow..

----- OLDER STUFF BELLOW -----

Ok, here are the files

Unzip windows to \windows

My Documents to \My Documents

Then go to the messaging application if you don't have a mms folder create a new account with dummy users etc at the end on the type choose MMS (this is a hack and you should only have one account of this type)

Configure your mms as normal and your set to go..

There's some extra files that hymalaia users don't have, so when you are copying \windows you don't need to say yes to overwrite (but the files on the zip are newer than the ones on our BAs)

Bugs:

1) When you try to add a .3gp file or view a folder with .3gp files it crashes.. (I have overwriten my \windows files, you can try not to do that and see if it gets better)

2) You can't add a photo directly from the camera

If you get an error about buffer overflow just replace rcdll.dll with rcdll_original.dll also on the rars.

Update: Replace rcdll.dll from \windows with the one in rcdll.rar (After you install all the other rars)

Update: Install the .reg FROM MMS.rar and not from the other rars, using a registry editor (kilmist or tre work fine)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ZeroXtreme:
Thanks for the files. I have a few of questions though:

1. Have you managed to send and receive MMS using the registry setttings you posted?

2. Does everything message realted still function properly after putting in the registry settings?

3. Does it work like the old ArcSoft MMS client for 2003?

4. What do you mean by "there's something missing"?

Thanks in advance.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
By something missing i mean that it doesn't work and theres more stuff needed :>
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ZeroXtreme:
Ok, got it. Thanks again :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ZeroXtreme:
Sorry, just curious on how you extracted the files and the registry settings. You think its still as before where it comes as a CAB in the extended ROM, and you think you can get the CAB file itself?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
I got the files from a user at universal forum, and they don't have a way to open the extrom :(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Ok we have MMS working at Himalaya and at Blueangel :)

But there's some problems with the icon resolution, as soon as i patch all the dlls i'm going to post the files :)

Re: [WM2005] MMS Client Inside WORKING!

Same here, don't work even with the new reg file ...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Have you checked that the registry is changed?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] VavrinaL:
The same for me... I have followed the instructions but when I wanted to create an MMS account and went through the wizard nothing "visually" changed. But apparently, the account exists somewhere inside because when I wanted to create another one (with the same name) thy wizard warned me that the account already exists... Any ideas...?

Remark: When I used the kilmist regedit I noticed that the default values (marked with @) weren't imported. I had to enter them manualy as REG_SZ values with 'Default' name... Could be that a problem...?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Do you see the Menu->MMS Configuration?

The only thing that changes when you add an account is that at the end you choose MMS instead of POP3 or IMAP (at step 5) fill something at the other steps, they aren't used
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] VavrinaL:
No... No at all... The menu doesn't contain such item...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Removed: see first post
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] VavrinaL:
Ok. It works... Thanks a lot for help. Because I did not see any MMS accounts previously I created two different MMS accounts... Is there any way to delete one of them...?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] patbisch:
You're lucky ... always nothing for me.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Going to menu -> tools -> options you can't delete it?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hollinshead:
using the latest mms reg file I now have an mms options on the tools in my inbox, but I still only have sms and outlook under my diff boxes?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] VavrinaL:
The MMS accounts are not listed here... Only Text Messages and New Account appear here...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
For thoose who don't see the MMS account type change (already fixed in the last registry):

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\MMS]

"UserCannotCreate"=dword:00000000
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hollinshead:
Call me thick, but how do you do that?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Menu -> Tools -> New Account
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] VavrinaL:
Yes sure... I have already changed it. But this allows me to create an account but not to delete it... Where is stored the list of defined accounts? Maybe there is a way to delete it directly without having an UI for that...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
I don't know how to make or remove new accounts :(

If i knew it i would add the automatic creation of it...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hollinshead:
That asks for an email address and is titled Email setup?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Just write something and click next, it doesn't matter!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
There's a tool from sprite to rebuild mail databases and that removes mms etc but i don't know if it works on WM5, just go to their site and search the faqs on rebuilding mail
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hollinshead:
It makes a pop mail account?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
You have to choose MMS
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hollinshead:
I have no option to choose mms?

It just presumes it a pop3 mail account

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Well, before we put in the wiki we must have a working cab :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Mastiff:
The installation of the cab went smooth with the new patched WM5 version, and I was able to set up eveything as it should be set up. But then, when trying to send a message, I get "Cannot recognize one or more recipients or the address is not valid. Would you like to send the message anyway?" Clicking on yes gives me another one: "Outlook E-mail, IMPA4, and POP3 e-mail accounts cannot be used to send text messages."
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Argh, i don't know what that is.. maybe it has something to do with the cmentries.xml, i just used the one from version 2 to create the mms account automaticaly, i installed mine by hand has i described first, and there were a user with an himalaia that also has his mms working...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Mastiff:
FOund the error. It was between the keyboard and the monitor...me! :oops: I didn't do a soft reset after the installation. It's sending and receiving as it should now!!! Thanks a lot! There is one problem, it seems a lot more prone to short lockups when working than when I had this on WM2003SE, but I'm not complaining!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ncruz:
Niceeee :)

Well don't forget about the .3gp files, thoose crash the mail application... About the lockups i don't know, the files came from the universal i only patched the dll's to use smaller icons...

im impressed that it retains camera intergration too.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ricmsmith:
Thanks very much. Now got working MMS, the last thing that needed fixing for me.

For anyone else still having problems make sure that you've

1.) Got the 2nd Patched version of the ROM

2.) After you install the CAB file make sure you soft reset by turning off, waiting a few seconds, then pressing the reset button.

Those were what fixed it for me.

Thanks again.

OK I can't get this working on my XDA II :(

I installed everything correctly I think, but when I create the account I get through the steps select MMS Account type but when I press OK I get an error which says

That name is already assigned to another account. Enter a unique name and try again.

I've tried changing the account names and the only accounts I have listed are Outlook Email and Text messages

Anyone know how to fix this please?

** EDIT **

Well I got through the account creation but it isn't appearing in my list of accounts some-one earlier had a similar problem and you suggested making a registry change.

I've now fixed my earlier problem, the registry settings hadn't imported properly for some reason so I just spent literally two hours checking everything and adding what was missing. Creating a new account seems to now work and and it is listed properly. I can compose an MMS Message, but when I click send it moves the MMS to the outbox and it just sits there. I've checked all the MMS Account settings and my GPRS settings are they are ok it just doesn't even seem to attempt to send the MMS, even if i manually connect the GPRS first....have a I missed something else I have to do first?

There's something weird about the images. The latest ROM is, as far as I know, actually version 2, not version 5. Correct me if I'm wrong, people, but I think the number 5 has been in the Wiki at least since Friday, while the latest patch came Monday.

I'm not sure but the version you downloaded may have come witha different upgrade app and dll's and if this is so, you need to use the other app and dll's from the first upgrade you did.
