Hey guys!

Title says it all. Got brand a new device last month (build date 11/1/2017), which started to decrease in overall performance after some weeks, meaning snappiness is gone, ui experience doesnt feel as smooth as it used to.

Nothing helps, already full wiped. Clean flashed android 9.0. Apps arent the source, since it's right there after a full wipe with just the standard apps.

Only factor seems to be "time". Since I am not the only one with that problem (see marques here://youtu.be/5_5zZnuB71w), I wonder who can relate and found the culprit.

Thanks!

I will not say I did not notice performance issues. But clearing of apps definitely did help. Also with the latest Android pie update it is back to its original smooth performance.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xflowy:
already did that, before full wiping. since the latter didnt help, it didnt help either.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] zee24:
I can't say I've ever experienced lag on my pixel 2 xl. It's been going so strong since a few months ago when I got it. With pie it feels like it just got smoother and looks like it's actually holding animations at 60fps no frame drops it's very nice
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sublimaze:
I can count on one hand the number of times I've observed noticeable lag/jankiness on my P2XL, and it almost always happens when I try to do too much after rebooting, before the system has settled. On prior Android devices, I would routinely clear the background apps, but my P2XL doesn't seem to require that. It runs just fine without me micromanaging it. I *do* use SD Maid (in Google Play) about once a week, so that probably helps. I also use Nova Launcher because I can't get used to the stock launcher. And I reduce all animations to 0.5x (Settings > Dev options).
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Bwyan Benton:
Mine is definitely not sluggish at all. Snappy as ever, and nicer now with Pie.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xflowy:
yea first pixel 2 xl i got (this one is a replacement) seemed to get a little less snappier from time to time, but always got back on track. so i know the real fluid and lagfree pixel experience.

but as this case (and the yt video) shows, it can go another route, too. question is, is it just a hardware thing?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Triscuit:
Highly doubt it's a "hardware thing" Snapdragon 835 is s great SoC, your lag could be due to a few things, number of apps installed, modifications to the system (ie magisk, Xposed, kernel, etc) rogue apps. I've had no issues with slowdowns or lag, no sure if you're stock or not but I run AquriOS with Flash kernel and magisk root, and everything runs flawlessly.

Re reading your original post, it's either a hardware malfunction or you are getting used to the"snappiness" of the device and you are feeling it's not fast enough. TBH my device runs as nicely as it did they say I got it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xflowy:
could it be a hardware malfunction if the benchmarks all perform as expected?

i sure didn't get used to it, since i had my original pixel 2 xl (this one is a replacement) for more like half a year without feeling less snappiness :)

Fast just like a day one. Ive judt realized even MKBHD the best tech youtuber cant be trusted anymore. Hes the camera guy. He keeps mentioning he cant go anywhere else because the pixel 2 xl camera is too good and i agreed but recently he jumped to oneplus 6 and it was a lie that it is his daily driver. There is no reasom to

The performance is not hat much different. Check xda analysis. Numbers cant lie. Pixel somehow is smoother. I own S9, OP6, and 2XL and i knew what is what. Stop watching too much youtube videos. They all are hired by oneplus
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xflowy:
you mean i watched a yt video and then got the idea that my phone is slow? oh boi..
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] BabeShaq:
There's plenty of people complaining on the same issue in the comments. Makes me concerned. So far i didn't experience any sluggishness on my device. Today i feel very happy about my choice for phone, because i got an opportunity to spend minutes with Note 9 and oh boy, do i not miss Samsung... That's like getting back to Nexus 6... Crazy.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EeZeEpEe:
Official Pie has been running smoother than DP2 through DP5 for me. No complaints here. Still wish RAM management was better but that's been on the aggressive side since day 1.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] malek777:
MKBHD is not lying when he said the oneplus 6 is smoother. Anandtech which is a reputable source confirms that the OnePlus 6 is smoother and faster than any phone on the market. The 2nd fastest phone is not the pixel, it's the xiaomi mi mix 2s.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] acheney1990:
The issue I have is my phone works prefect and then will just stutter...like lag and almost freeze up for a moment. Resetting doesn't fix.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Goog1e Phone:
Been having issues as well last month. Started fresh and wiped with pie and still lags. Not sure what's happening. Cannot figure it out. No rogue apps. Haven't installed a new app in weeks.

The phone just hangs more often now. Never had this issue since I got the phone around December.
[Touch Cruise General] Richard47:
Having enabled geotagging and taken a few photos around home I have found that the longitude co-ordinate for my position is incorrect as stored in the photo EXIF data. My house is at W 0deg 46min 52.59sec, ie west of Greenwich, and when shown on Google Earth it is shown at the same longitude but east of Greenwich.

Further investigation has revealed that longitudes bewteen the Greenwich meridian (0deg) and 1deg West are incorrectly stored and will all show to the east of Greenwich. I have checked this by driving west from home and taking a few test photos just west of the 1deg west meridian.

I guess that there is little chance of this being corrected :(
[Touch Cruise General] Richard47:
Is there anyone that can check this on an HTC device for me?
[Touch Cruise General] Elvez:
yup - I'm having the same problems. Except I don't know if the deviation is always 1 degree (didn't check for this). However, coordinates are definetly off!

Stock 8.1.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] marko.dnb:
I flashed at least 5 ROMS in past few days. So far Stock + Mint kernel gave best battery/performance balance.

Favorite for my case would be Liquid Remix as it has more customization and battery life is somewhat close to Stock, and a bit snappier than Stock.

It all depends on your usage and what you want.

Go and try the ROMs, we can't help you much by telling what is the best, because there is no best, all ROMs all different and offer different things.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] TrueMS:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kai_Z:
Hey folks,

Firt of all I got a LeEco Le Pro 3 x720.

Today I wanted to change from Omni ROM to Lineage OS.

So i followed the instructions provided by Lineage OS to do so.

Using TWRP I Formatted Data and wiped Cache and System Partitions.

So far so good.

Now I installed adb drivers on my Computer and pushed the .zip using "adb push .zip /sdcard/", which was working at that point.

When trying to install the Rom in TWRP, I got "Error 7". So i made some changes in the Zip-File deleting the asserts.

When I tried pushing again I suddenly got the error: "adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found" eventhough my Phone is still connected.

It is beeing detected in Fastboot mode though.

Any ideas how to solve this problem or is my phone a brick now?

Thanks in advance!

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Guides, News, & Discussio] Aftab_khatri:
I will give you 3 options to solve android system drain and it will 100% solve un-necessary drains.

1st Method this most probably solve issue

*Don't use fingerprint scanner use Face unlock or pattern

Note: If you will use fingerprint scanner it will give you alot of wakelocks because fingerprint scanner detects very little dust(which barely you can see with eyes) not only fingers. If you have phone in your jeans or trouser pocket it will drain battery 100%. Device will also heat while you get cdfinger wakelocks almost 5000+ in 10 minutes.

2nd Method Re-calibrate battery

Charge to 100% and use untill 0% . Charge while Mobile switch off upto 100 and use again do this 2 times.

3rd Method

Install full firmware from asus site copy this file to root directory and reboot and you will see update notification.

Note:This is for stock recovery and will wipe all data.

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZB601KL/UL-ASUS_X00T-WW-15.2016.1805.318-user.zip

Thanks for reading hope this will help someone. I found this solution my self by detecting wakelock and flashed full firmware i did not get any drain later.

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Guides, News, & Discussio] night_mare:
Try this little trick which worked for me real good. After charging the device, restart it and go to Android system app info and trun off background activity (if it is already turned off turn on and off immediately). Do this every time you charge the device. Share your experience if you try it.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Guides, News, & Discussio] Aftab_khatri:
It doesn't do anything look at the wakelock detail its the faulty fingerprint scanner and stopping or changing system activity will give you negative effects on overall usability.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Guides, News, & Discussio] .hack//G.U.:
Recalibrating the battery may fixed the problem, but to completely fix it you probably want to switch to another ROM completely, plus installing stuff like Amplify + Greenify. You do need to root your phone for this. Don't ask me which ROM though since I'm on stock myself and too lazy to go through that process again for now. Maybe sometimes early next year we'll see.

Its Normal wakelock while using phone or having data connection or wifi connected and only problem is cdfinger wakelock which heats phone and eats a lot of battery and can not be solved by any app. For ex greenify. Ampify etc only can be fixed by asus by making changes in kernel.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VarDes:
Hello everyone. I have recently bought new battery for my nexus 6 (Akku powercell).

After swapping battery to the new one phone doesn't want to power up (plugging in charger shows full battery icon and restarts. Additionally under charger I can access bootloader but the phone wont start/enter recovery - each try ends up in the charged battery icon loop).

Replacing the battery back with old one and everything works fine and dandy.

I've checked the new battery with a multimeter and it shows ~3,7V so should be charged enough to boot. Maybe anyone has an idea what could be the problem? Is it something related to me not getting new wireless charging coil along with new battery?

Should I try and misplace the wireless coil connection to motherboard on purpose (I'm not really using it anyway so not a big deal)?

Any help will be appreciated.

Hmmm, could You maybe point me to the specific thread? I can't quite the understand what do You mean with the middle line.

And what country do You live in that You can't get a nexus 6 battery if I might ask? You could always order from china, or try searching for an ez30 battery - might pop up few local (country-wise) shops who might still have them.

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

In short the batteries of all the cell phones bring a temperature sensor, some batteries bring 3 contacts as in Nexus 5 that one is +, the other is GND or Negative and the middle line is from the temperature sensor of the battery, now in the Nexus 6 is 4 only that the additional line is sensor but separate, if the battery is placed and the cell phone does not read a temperature it automatically turns off to avoid equipment damage

Ah this way. Now I get it, thabks for the link too! And sorry to hear that : /, If You can manage to fit the other battery (is connector the same?) then the only hurdle might be the battery frame and putting backcover back on, but a decent case might accomodate for the backcover.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Felix92x:
What I would recommend is that if you have voltage in the battery according to what I read before then the battery circuit if it would be worth, then with a needle try to close the pins or contacts of your new battery
