The lagging issue

I have a friend that just got the G3 he's complaining of a lagging issue for example when opening an application he have to press a couple of times to open the app he's saying it's a little annoying was wondering if the company will soon look into this issues many here complying about ?
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
I have none of this issues on att 850

This help lag but it killed my battery a lot faster
[G3 General] Dubhar:
Those of you who install Nova launcher. You can also set 'Aggressive Desktop' under advanced under nova settings. This will make nova persist im memory rather than get killed off by the system, might or might not help for anyone whos using some heavy ram using apps.
[G3 General] Heisenberg420:
Generally when you change kernel settings it's a trade off between performance and battery life (more info in op). Your basically telling the cpu to spend more time at higher frequencies.

Changes can also be made for better battery life, it seems that using cfq io scheduler improves battery life and smoothness. Try going back to the default governor control parameters and use cfq scheduler.
[G3 General] markfm:
okay, I have trickstermod.

Is I/O scheduler adjusted using SysCtl Editor?

What is the parameter name to search for, and value to set it to, to get cfq?

Thanks!
[G3 General] StreetkillnHD:
Could be touch detection issue
[G3 General] Heisenberg420:
It's right under General options
[G3 General] markfm:
Awesome, thanks. I take it it should be fairly safe to make just that one adjustment, based on what others have seen so far.
[G3 General] alhadee12:
I just picked up a T-Mobile version, have anyone experienced lag with it and what is your overall experience with it.
[G3 General] dondavis007:
Just a quick notice. I've just arrived in Turkey and my phone complained abt heat and turned itself off after abt 15 minutes on the beach. I've turned all kind of kernel related tweaks off (don't using the lg g2 trick) until I've found out what happens. 15 minutes... I went back to the flat and put the darn thing in the freeze :)

I own the T Mobile version and owned it since its release... Mine is definitely lag free... And I'm definitely no noob... It's lag free unlike the g2 I've owned previously.
[G3 General] alhadee12:
That's good to hear. I'm going see how it works out because I'm new to the network.
[G3 General] SpEaKeRb0xXx:
When i still don't know anything about the other flagship im leaning towards z2 (im choosing between z2 and s5). I don't have any hands on experience that time since it is not yet available in my country, i read and watch tons of forum about z2... But when it arrived and manage to play with it,,, first thing that ive noticed is this wave thing that keeps moving on to the screen esp in camera (its like a crt monitor that have a weak signal), also i realized that the flip thing is actually not for me, i have a local brand handset which is my company phone. It got a flip cover on its charging port, and i removed it, it get loose at some point and i think it is annoying to open, hold it with your finger and aim for the port before you can connect the USB, i just want it to be plug and play, .. Other than that, the unit itself is gorgeous, i don't care about bezel, very satisfied with camera esp in low lights and the prime looks (compared to s5) is a major plus,,, (water proofing is not a selling point for me) ...

GOOD THING tho, i didn't rush to buy that phone and give my self a little time to review more and then i learned G3 and m8. Now i care about bezels and how actually good it is if your handset got less of it and more of screen size in almost the same size as other flagship.. I know this handset will perform neck n neck, they're in the same category, so i really don't care about benchmark results. I chose G3 over m8 since i really don't like non removable battery thing and the thin but taller frame. Right now im very happy with my G3..

Sorry for the OT novel.

Back to topic, i still don't know what the hell is this lag? Im curious and somehow i wanted to experience it :laugh:.. Im in the middle of tweaking my phone to perfection and im looking for flaws to fix, im from a very smooth ip5 and experiencing the same way with my G3.. So far the only thing that ive done is root my phone, remove bloatwares (very few on asian/eu version, very nice for lg), and greenify it.. Charged it, slept for 7hrs and still my batt is in 100%, unlike before that it will go down around 96% even on standby so i think its doing great!
[G3 General] robto:
Do anyone know how to disable ZRAM?

I read people considering ZRAM to be a cause of lag in other devices. I am trying to test but it seems it is not easy to disable ZRAM using Trickster Mod

Edit: Could anyone please try with Trickter Mod Pro? With normal version ZRAM re enables itselft a couple of seconds after

Edit2: Confirmed. Trickster Mod Pro correctly disables ZRAM in LG G3. Doing some lag testing now, it looks better to me. Could some please have s look if confirm if it is or not only my impression?

Lag isnt bad. Its noticeable from the g2. Its just the lg ui. Needs tweaking. But its till better than touch wiz.

[G3 General] radeonxt:
same here zram enabled on v10c of D855.

turning it off in trickster mod, after applying it says successful then the button goes back to on. :(

edit :

after exiting trickster mod, and opening it again zram is now off. :)
[G3 General] dondavis007:
I'm on D855 with v10a , lg seems to have changed a few things.
[G3 General] robto:
It happened to me. I thought it was due to Trickster Mod version. In my case, Trickster Mod Pro were able to disable zram.

Did you notice less lag disabling zram? I think re-enabling zram takes 5-10 minutes to get lag back again but... maybe it is only my impression

go troll somewhere else
[G3 General] alluebin:
On the trolling topic: I had a Z2 for a couple of weeks, it didnt have lag like the g3, but I hated the phone. It was dull, boring, sony ui was so gingerbread, and the phone overall was fugly. And this is just my opinion, remember, everyone has their preferences. I mean that some like the z2, some like the g3, some like ios etc. So, I switched the Z2 to the G3 and I have never been happier with a phone. G3 has its flaws too, like every phone, but there will always be fixes too.

Here's a potato.
[G3 General] MATRIKS:
I will give you guys lag solution just install seeder apk

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1987032
[G3 General] rushless:
The issue seems more that the LG device UI for the G3 was drawn in Qhd. Since the mean for operation of the 801 is 1080p, that is probably why the UI is a little slow. The only likely way an update could fix it is if redrawn at 1080p.

I use Nova, so would be no harm no foul.
[G3 General] Seifer1975:
Same sentiments, plus the Z2 was really horrible at a lot of basic phone features. It was the only phones which I can't wait to get rid off after only a month of usage.
[G3 General] barondebxl:
In with you. I had the Z2 for 3 days and honestly it's the worst flagship this year so far. The overheating issues alone are ridiculous.

Can't beat low light performance of the m8
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
Yea true but still only a 4mp does matter if HTC calls it megapixel 4mp once your crop a photo the pics look horrible or try to zoom.
[G3 General] PunishedSnake:
So when taking low light photos why would one need to crop? Or zoom....

Low light is where it's at
[G3 General] Marília de Oliveira:
Very good, I will test on my XSP ✌?
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
Ok ur opinion m8 is better at low light but that's where it ends.
[G3 General] PunishedSnake:
Thats all that matters HTC marketed it as the best in low light performance. If someone wanted cropping and zooming then the 41mp in the lumia is another phone would suffice. G3 seems good for the task
[G3 General] dondavis007:
Just a quick head up about phone shutting down. It had nothing to do with my tinkering or any kind of tweaks. Its just pure phone , it's gets hot and shutting down. Since I've arrived in on my semester it has been shutting down quite often, a perfect way of getting there is reading a book, using a battery pack, on the beach.

Why,ohh why didn't I bring a second phone. Now I have to steal my kids N7 [emoji4]
[G3 General] mgbotoe:

I only changed the to cfq and modified the hi freq as suggested. I wanted to ask if anyone before doing this has experienced a sort of deadspot around the delete key, but its not constant, happens every once in a while. Would you conclude its software or hardware, and it has kind of stopped for a day now. Its weird???? Please keep the annoying comments to yourself that have nothing to do with this phone. Thanks
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
I get reboots when trying performance
[G3 General] Batfink33:
Performance govenor locks all cores at max frequency always. Its no wonder it causes reboots.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/40336-cpu-governors-explained/
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
Don't turn off thermal config it won't increase performance,it's to protect the cpu when it gets to hot the phone turns off. Adjust thermal.conf to limit affects of thermal throttle and that will still protect cpu and give better performance
[G3 General] bobbarker2:
And where is thermal.conf? You mean thermald.conf in /system?
[G3 General] _Infamous_:
System / etc and thermal.conf I wouldn't touch those settings unless you know what you are doing. There are ton of settings to tweak.

Note that I've removed LGHome.

If you delete it, you need to install a replacement launcher before :)

and if you are planning to do a wipe, you need to copy the launcher apk to /system before do it...

The removed apps are from /system/app or /system/priv-app
[G3 General] amarinos:
I know its a long shot, but is there any way to remove that stupid McAfee bloat without root ?
[G3 General] xgman:
The Verizon model doesn't seem to use McAfee thankfully.
[G3 General] immortal7792:
Instead of removing them can't you just freeze them? Because to my knowledge the system is already partitioned for a set size so deleting them will get rid if them yes but will not give you more space where as freezing them disables them fully but they can easily be restored by defrosting
[G3 General] ehmjay:
wow i hope to have ur same results, i just applied your settings and my g3 is flying! did u do other things to improve battery life like greenifying apps or things like that?
[G3 General] lossah:
Wonder the same thing. Doesnt matter for me if it means im gonna win some space either if thats the case.
[G3 General] Heisenberg420:
I greenified a few apps that tend to run in the background even when you tell them not to like airdroid, WeatherBug
[G3 General] ehmjay:
thanks! i'll try that too
[G3 General] lossah:
Those settings work great. But only with ART for me. No really difference with dalvik.
[G3 General] :
Due to G3 seems to don't support init.d folder in /system/etc, I'm using "init.d support for all" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.initd)

to exec the attached optimizations script at startup ...
[G3 General] danny_and_2:
For me it says:

90cpu.sh

/storage/emulated/0/SHscripts/90cpu.sh[

How do I resolve it? :)
[G3 General] :
are you executing the script manually or via the related app?
[G3 General] danny_and_2:
Through the app?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.initd

Tried "Run Scripts Now" & also excecute on boot & rebooted it.

It was the same error.

Ideas? :)
[G3 General] Lookinen:
Why not just use Trickster and set on boot. That script is only some basic setting changes that can be set in Trickster.

[G3 General] lossah:
Open something, press home button and i can guarantee you there is lag. :p If not, wtb video!
[G3 General] Sepvr:
So Heisenberg, i wanne apply all these changes you did, to my LG G3 cuz i'm having quite soms lagg issues. i've been reading alot of "lag" threads on this forum and found that you gave a really detailed tutorial. i'm gonna try it. but now i was wondering, are you running all these changes on Dalvik or ark mode? and have you noticed any problems lately or is the phone still running smooth (stable) ? also you recommend ROW over CFQ ? i'll get back here once i have applied all these settings and let you guys know my thoughts and experience.
[G3 General] robertc88:
I just started using it so time will tell. I think though that Nova is "faster than light"! :)
[G3 General] Heisenberg420:
Those settings are stable. I unfortunately no longer have my g3 but I ran those settings in the op on dalvik runtime with xposed installed for 2 weeks and didn't have any issues.
[G3 General] Sepvr:
ok :) i'll give it a shot and hope my LG G3 beast, becomes buttery as it has to be.
[G3 General] thegrants82:
Same here. Better launcher and zero lag now.
[G3 General] drock212:
Since he ran them with xposed that mean no art. Just remember if you do wanna try art get rid of xposed as they're not compatible with each other
[G3 General] Sepvr:
Ok. Also i see ppl saying that just by installing like "google now launcher" it also took away their lag issues. so then instead of rooting and tweaking my phone, wouldn't it be easier to just instal a other launcher (like google now) to take away the lag issue ?
[G3 General] lossah:
Lag will definitly not disappear if you install another launcher. Doesnt matter what they say, its still there. But, yes, it will make your phone quicker, but if you really want to make it as good as possible, you need to change to ART, remove all the animations, tweak it with Trickster and ofc freeze/remove as many apps thats possible. Ive freezed about 65 apps/files.
[G3 General] Sepvr:
alright :) thanks. guess i'll go with the tutorial made by heisenberg then. instead of taking another launcher. :)
[G3 General] lossah:
The biggest difference is ART instead of Dalvik. :P
[G3 General] thegrants82:
Speak for yourself. My lag disappeared with the Google launcher installed.
[G3 General] dondavis007:
I presume that your ui lad disapered, did it help for ex Tapatalk? I typing this on a 801 with cm and man, it's another kind of smooth, put my G3 in a box 4 a while [emoji1]
[G3 General] lossah:
Yeah, right. :P Give me your video with apps open and press your home button, enter LG settings and enter Battery category and others. Go back with the arrow in the UI, that for example, together with other lag situations.

And its almost more funny when you say it helped with only a launcher, and youre running Dalvik, i guess. Thats a lagfest.

I believe you when i can actually see it. :P
[G3 General] titchyyyy:
I'm quite upset after I got this phone the other day. I like to test out the flagship phones for one month each to see which one I like and then I'll sell the others (iPhones not included, I don't like them). The last flagship phone I stuck with was the S4.

Anyway, the lag on this phone is terrible, it honestly feels like I'm on a really slow tablet (Not in terms of speed - it's still a fast phone overall), the UI is jittery and for example when I unlock my phone, it "draws" the screen and then jolts and all my notifications lag up really fast.

Is the LG G3 doomed? Will it be fixed in a software update? Although I like to customize my phones via XDA - it's the first phone in which I've had to fix "lag" out of the box! I do like the screen & the camera, they're better than the ones I've experienced on the M8, but I'm just not enjoying the experience overall on this phone, it feels horrible at points.
[G3 General] lossah:
Lots of solutions to fix lag at this forum. Mine is almost lagfree, but not totally. Think we need a firmware to fix it, if its possible. Switch to ART, root, freeze LOTS of apps and follow the trickster thread to tweak.

Its still laggy, yeah, but not close to stock lag. :P
[G3 General] titchyyyy:
I've just switched to ART which I've seen has improved the phone a tiny bit, feels a lot more smoother overall. But, I'm still not happy with the fact that I have to customize the stock rom to make it smooth!

It's a shame because I LOVE the design of the phone, the screen, the camera. It's just the rom/software that seems to let it down :(.
[G3 General] T-Fanatic:
I did the steps in the OP with trixter mod and they really sped everything up and smoothed it out compared to stock. Mine is a 851 running davlik and exposed. Thanks OP, not a reboot in sight.

I did all the tips i read here in the Forum. Nothing really worked the way i wanted you know? I still had some minor lag ....so I decided to chance the launcher to nova and...bam ! Sweet and smooth as this phone should be from the start. I thought that only Samsung had a crappy launcher...

Well..for those with problems...try nova...it worked for me.

I'm pretty sure the problem here is that there is a stock firmware development aka the custom ROMs can't just start "taking over from where the devs left off" like it happened with Samsung Devices that get stuck at v4.1.2 unless someone else does something about it.

I guess most things here just are not stable. I hope the stock works out for you. Did you get the rooting done? I found a video tutorial for that here http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z-ultra/general/guide-root-android-4-4-4-ver-14-4-0-108-t2801587
