I did reboot after it disabled still fast. How can I check if its still disabled?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Venom0642:
Sorry to hear some having lag issues, I'm one of the lucky ones cause i have no lag issues whatsoever and gaming on phone still no lags, But why Samsung why do some have to turn things off so it can get smoother, that's just ridiculous, Samsung do you hear me there phones should be running super fast, without them having to disable stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Darbar1701:
I just uninstalled it completely, will it still come back after a reboot??
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Easiest way to optimize and troubleshoot a Samsung is using Package Disabler. Not on Playstore or free. I would post the website link but some ratfink (shame on you) here keeps reporting me for doing so. Likely a Developer for a rival app that fails after Samsung revokes their Knox licensing🤣

This app doesn't have that problem. PM if you want the link.

GOS was never a problem on my N10+'s but it didn't seem to do anything useful that I used either. I normally disable it with PD. Samsung may have inadvertently or deliberately expanded its functions beyond when gaming. Don't know.

No big deal. All Samsung's need to be optimized for best performance... get use to it.

This is how it appears on the N10+ Android 9. It's been around for over a decade.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Venom0642:
Yes can be disabled as seen in photo, all those apps in photo are disabled
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] AndroidNO0B:
No issues on mine so far
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] BigDisplay:
Dont trust in any software no matter what.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NaoiKR:
Should I be worried? Made 2 benchmarks and those are the results. Seems very low to me.

I'm kinda worried after I saw a video of a random guy playing pokemon unite in s22 ultra with 60fps all the time. I get 60 fps too, but always drops to 40-45 when there is many characters in the screen (not even s20 have this problem).

If anyone have any tip of what I could be doing to increase the perfomance.

Btw I'm using the 256gb/snapdragon version. Tried disabling the gaming service, and it literally drops the fps to 20-30 if I do.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
Yeah that a big No No Charging Phone while running games or benchmarks. That kind of heat will most likely throttle the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] littlemegaman:
SM-S908U1 Unlocked Snapdragon 12/256GB.

The phone never felt right from the very start.

The must annoying thing right now is YouTube and Twitch won't play videos at high resolution when connected over 5G. Anything over 720p buffers every few seconds, but if I switch over to WiFi will stream smoothly. Excellent signal strength and close all apps, but for a phone with 12GB of RAM and latest chipset, totally unacceptable. Tried YouTube thru the browser and same deal, can't stream 2160p, not that I need to, just something I noticed. Maybe someone can test to see if they have this issue?

The phone also feels laggy-ish. It's not sluggish by any means, but sliding over to the Google page for the first time each time feels like it wakes the adaptive refresh rate or maybe boosts power and can notice a stutter. And for 5G it doesn't seem to download content as fast as I was expecting it to, even tho Ookla's Speeddtest and OpenSignal show good download speeds of up 500mbps.

Typing on the stock keyboard or Gboard also seems off. It sometimes doesn't register when I press on the left side of the screen, but performing a screen tests shows it's working fine.

I also just got a Samsung Certified Renewed Note 10+ since I'm at 95% on returning this S22 Ultra and wouldn't you know it, the Note 10+ as outdated as it may be, feels way more responsive and natural than this new S22U.

The RAM also concerns me, with no apps open it shows 4.6GB available? 🤔

I've tried factory resetting, disabling battery optimization on these apps, clearing cache, even went to the extreme and flashed my carrier T-Mobile firmware and the problem still persists. It's seriously driving me nuts.

What's going on with this phone? Is it the GOS just recently discovered? Or a 🍋?

Thanks for your feedback in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
Same issue here. Snapdragon 512gb. ATT. Battery life sux
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
On a N10+ around 5gb ram usage is nominal so 4.6 seems well within the ballpark.

The N10+ is still one of Samsung's best flagship phones. With 12gb of ram they are full of snap. I have two, that's how much I like them. They are well built and long lived. Its display remains probably the best fixed rate phone display ever produced. To my knowledge no other phone display has exceeded its color rendering index including the newest variable refresh rate displays.

I don't know... you'll probably get it straighten out eventually. It's a big chunk of change though and I wouldn't lose sleep sending it back if there's any doubt about it being a keeper.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] BigDisplay:
I agree with you, its such a shame, to be honest, its a scandal the S22 serie 😡

i am uninstalled 122 trashy Samsung apps which i never use, so my battery is Super Powered now.

or use adb app control which is much faster

dm if need help
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
Latest benchmark results..all tests done outside..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] whisky_:
Your Geekbench results are amazing. I'm getting 808/3545 on mine, single core is a disaster!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Icedlemons:
Hey sorry for the late response but I just got my S22 Ultra a couple days ago... So I don't know if you're still having lagging problems but I figured I'd post little tip in case you or others are having similar problems. The S22 Ultra has a really cool feature to increase your RAM to specifically help with running apps, just follow my directions below:

1. Open your settings menu

2. Scroll down until you find "Battery and device care" and click it.

3. Click the third category down "Memory"

4. Once it opens you can of course free up some memory from rarely used apps but that's just a temporary solution... What you want to do is click the button at the bottom that says "RAM Plus" and select between 2-8GB to add as virtual RAM to your memory.

The RAM Plus feature lets you take a small portion of your internal hard drive storage and use it as virtual RAM memory dedicated specifically towards improving app performance if needed. I included a screenshot to help you make sure you're in the right spot.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kaadaj:
Did you make optimisations or changed some settings to achieve this scores ? Mines are incredibly low... (exynos, maximum performance)

I got 665/3200 on geekbench and only 700000 on antutu... I really don't understand the differences on same model
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
Nope as I said I done the tests outdoors,it was quite cold and temperature of the phone as also stayed low I don't know if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
I don't understand why I get this? It would be nice if they tell you what app is causing this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Digie:
I am asking here since this topic is active and is model no related

Can you please inform if which cpu SM-908E uses?

I think it is SD, but want to be sure as it is USD 1,800 here...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] tobias14:
I got this as well, but just one time
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
When clicking no details.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] tobias14:
Yup, no details
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
I don't know what happened to my device but I'm starting to get better benchmark lately..do you guys think samsung pushing some kind of updates overnight to the device?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Darbar1701:
New update !!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cmfCyangenModteam:
Cool, S22 Ultra users new upgrades!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] _DroidLife:
Updated. Not seeing any improvement in general UI lag issues :confused:

Going to clear the cache partition in a desperate attempt to believe this update is going to fix things.....
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Darbar1701:
Mine seems better but I think it was getting better the last few days anyway, maybe it was apps that were updated that were causing the lag ,?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] San Diego:
Close this 23 page behemoth of a thread.

the s22 U is a beast. Enough said.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lawtq:
You're free to leave
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] tobias14:
Same feeling here, seems better the last few days and now even more after this update
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Darbar1701:
Is yours a Snapdragon or exynos???
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Paul_Deemer:
Feel free to remove yourself from the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] San Diego:
haaa, wow. Yeah, I'm removing myself from notifications. Y'all sitting around here babbling about this new phone, then snarking. Here, I gave you something to get you through the rest of the weekend.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] joemossjr:
People have different opinions and are allowed to voice. I was having issues with my phone until I refreshed firmware and now I'm fine. My performance was absolute dog ****. Now it's perfect for me. Obviously there's something wrong with the device or samsung wouldn't be getting sued in Vietnam
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
With this update phone feels like a totally different phone ,I'm quite happy with this latest update.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] _DroidLife:
After clearing the cache partition it does feel much better on the latest update.

Exynos / 256gb
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Digie:
Yea, i saw SD on the tag at the Samsung shop and immediately preordered
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Nghtmare:
I have 2 Exynos S22 Ultra and they both work perfectly fine. I have mine running at 1080p and my wife has hers at 1440p, no issues anywhere.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vendetta17:
Not sure what wonders Samsung did but i can confirm my phone flies now compared to the earlier march update. I am happy and now it feels like i got a 1500 pounds phone. Happy.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
Has the battery life improved with new update?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lawtq:
Nope. 3% lost in last hour doing nothing in my pocket. Google play services chewing up the battery in the background for nothing
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
Same issue here. Battery draining not as bad as before but still bad. No update yet for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] iamnotkurtcobain:
I think this is pretty good. Latest AVC6 Firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SamFR:
Yes i can confirm, with the last update the phone is better. (Exynos 8/128gb)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
video comparision GOS ON/OFF...

for users who dont play hardcore games it makes no sense to disable it. i can also confirm that on this update phone is better and smooother.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
Is Twitter is still lagging as hell for you too?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] iamnotkurtcobain:
It's a Twitter issue. They have to fix their app.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
Yeah and no, it's very smooth on my S20+.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
normal scrolling is OK, when you scroll quickly over multiple feeds, it takes some time for loading and there are lags as well, but it needs to be optimized by twitter.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
Twitter is better for me.check the video and let me know what you think.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jhericurls:
When scrolling fast, it's mostly fine. Its when you do a large swipe and the page slows, it gets notchy
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
Before the update I have lag and shutter everywhere. Then I wipe the cache and off factory reseted. Last night after the GOS update shutter and lag and also heat is returned. Very weird but it is extremely sluggish. 128GB exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] garret1976:
New firmware and still a lot of stutter. Seemed like older firmware was better the last few days.

Video recording is also still choppy.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
Please everyone, when you comment, precise Exynos or Snapdragon just to be sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] garret1976:
Thought it was Exynos only that lagged and new firmware is Exynos only right?

But I have Exynos and tried every tweak but it’s still worse than my S21 Ultra which isn’t that smooth either since Android 12.

I have to mention that it’s not in every app. Some apps scroll smooth and some don’t. Animations are also a mixed bag but mostly I notice some micro stutter when going to home screen .
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
My S20+ Exynos is super smooth. My S22 Ultra Exynos is really good too, just Twitter sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] BigDisplay:
Same here on my s22u with silly A12 and same on my Mi 11 ultra Android 12, so i changed and go back to A11 1 week ago (on my Mi 11 ultra), totally stable... Hate A12.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] _DroidLife:
Was kind of feeling same, was certainly better the last few days before the update. Then did the update and it was laggy still, tried clearing cache partition and everything was smooth! But...... woke up this morning and it's laggy again. Only thing I can put it down to is that I have the phone configured to restart at night. So after restart....lag??

I don't know... give up.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Tysss:
I got my replacement S22 Ultra 12gb Exynos.

It is so much better than the one I sent back. Something weird is going on here.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
I've just received mine, Graphite and it's smooth... Maybe they are different from the first batch?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
I also suspect that. It seems like software or maybe a driver problem with gpu hardware. Can be a problem with a bad batch of chip.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] fortuneman:
My S22U Exynos only started lagging after the latest update. It is also warmer on touch and it seems like the battery is running out of juice noticeably faster. Tried wiping cache but that made zero difference. So there is something wrong on the software side and the last FW (GOS) update broke for me too.

Update: it overheats so much it stops wirelessly charging in my car, which worked well before yesterday's update. Frack, can I uninstall the update somehow without going through the pain of reinstalling and resetting all my apps? 😭
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Tysss:
Non I don’t think you can downgrade firmware images anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
not the best update so far.

i had no major issues so far, today phone restarts itself 2times, and freezes on lockscreen (fingerprint graphic rendered on half) multiple times. wiping cache did not help.. except this phone is super smooth and fast.

exynos 12/512
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] iamnotkurtcobain:
That's mine after the Update. Give the phone a day to settle.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] fortuneman:
Why do you think it should change with time? I don't remember any Android phone needing a day or two after an update till it gets better.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
It doesn't. Disable all power management in Device Care, see if that helps.

Clear system cache.

A factory reset may be needed but may yield little. A crap shoot.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] fortuneman:
thanks, done this, didnt do anything. so either I can wait for another update hoping it would make things better this time or if it doesnt arrive soon I will have to reinstall the phone from scratch which is a bugger.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] _DroidLife:
I'm positive it's a thermal management issue, at least with the Exynos. I did the following....

- turned off Adaptive Battery and Power saving (obviously)

- set Processing Speed to Maximum

Device runs nice, smooth and UI not showing any lag. I then ran 3DMark and got 7100, I then continued to run 3DMark and each test was getting worse and eventually got to 5500 with device super hot. In-between benchmarks I navigated the UI and it was laggy as hell and similar to what I had experience before.

I grabbed two ice blocks and cooled the device down until it was super cold and ran the benchmark again and got 7979! No UI lag whatsoever.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
He goes my battery life. 59 percent 1hrs screen on time. Pathetic
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
there is something not OK.

i have same battery, but double SOT.

exynos 12/512 model
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
I have almost the same experience. I also found that ui getting tired when using gesture navigation. Button navigation a little bit less intense for cpu and/or gpu. Thermal management exynos has a problem. Let's see if other users have the same problem or maybe defective units found some of us.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
One UI Home usage shouldn't be near that high.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
It can be if the user try to change wallpaper and installing some themes increases the battery usage. It is not the point also. The point is exynos can not handle wqhd resolution and throttling and lagging all over the system unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] _DroidLife:
Here's a very chilled device but running at FHD+ resolution*. homeedition88 is correct, running wqhd is not made for Exynos!

*My previous screenshot was at WQHD+
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
It can be a driver issue because exynos uses amd gpus which is a very new in android world. But most of the time performance can't be better only with software update. It looks like Samsung make a mistake with exynos again. I will send back my device tomorrow :(
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
Samsung is boxed in with it's Exynos 2200/AMD Chipset. It was engineered to operate at a clock speed of 1.9 GHz but due to overheating they dialed it down (throttled) to 1.29 GHz. That's likely why Samsung incorporated the new Vapor Chamber for heat dissipation but it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

AMD RDNA 2 GPU Clocks on Samsung Exynos Reduced from 1.9GHz to 1.29GHz due to Thermal Throttling | Hardware Times

Samsung’s Exynos 2200 has gone from being one of the most anticipated SoCs of 2022 to an utter PR disaster. Featuring AMD’s RDNA 2 graphics IP, the processor was slated to bring accelerated gaming performance to the upcoming Galaxy S22 smartphone. Unfortunately, foundry problems paired with a...

Update problem on Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA?

Find out in this guide how to do if you have an update problem on your Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA.

smartandroid.fr

As bad as the Note 7 was at least Samsung knew the problem. The S22 Ultra is looking to be the most problematic device Samsung has rolled out in many years. Who knows if they can ever get it straight?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] fortuneman:
It is the drivers but I have the opposite conclusion. Why? Because my device was totally fine before the latest FW update. Which means that if they can break it, they can fix it as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Venom0642:
AT&T S22 Ultra 5G Snapdragon battery life is awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Perhaps. It may get messy...

Rule #1, if a OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission let it be. Updates can and do break things. First thing I do on a Samsung is disable OTA updates.

The world is full of good intentions that can blow up in your face. You are in control... chose wisely, trust nothing until proven.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
well, i have last 2 days of free returning period of my Exynos S22Ultra12/512GB.

still thinking my unit is fine, but reading all this i am not sure if i should keep it or not.

will it get better with updates over time ?

will the inconsistence in performamce be solved ?

what do you think guys ?

i used iPhones for years and such issues are new for me...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ceza21:
I have exact same feelings...I think device is fine but my s21 ultra still feels lag free and smooth compared to my s22 ultra on the other hand I don't want to use a different device just because of a snapdragon soc.and I don't realy like ios and apple don't really care how smooth they run.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] goTouch:
It definitely gets better over time. Kernel optimizations will come, but don't know about this brand new Exynos 2200. On Exynos 2100, it got better over time and couldn't complain almost anything about it on S21.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
This is what I got today. Going to super charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
True but also definition of fine can be different to person to person. In my case I use Wqhd resolution with a fast pace use between apps. Sending emails and use office documents at the same time with a video chat. Right now s22 ultra can't follow my pace.

I personally do not rely on a software update promises. Exynos has a gpu issue for sure. It can't perform well under pressure. I will be add some videos today how bad the lag when it throttling.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
definitely not ok...

i have double SOT...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] borijess:
Mine is the snapdragon att version. 512gb.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] FlugzeugSK:
thats even weirder.

exynos is said to have higher power consumption, worse energy management and worse battery life than SD version.

mine Exynos seems to be not so bad purchase then...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Nghtmare:
This is my wife's phone. Bluetooth on 100% of the time since she has it connected to her watch plus a few hours listening to music with BT headphones. At 1440p btw. She is still on Feb patch, for some reason she hasnt received March update, I did.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
Totally agree, the S21 Ultra had very few issues until Android 12 OneUI 4.0 OTA was released. With respect to the S22 Ultra I'm certain some of the issues are with Android 12 OneUI 4.1. Samsung has cleared up a few of the problems but they still have a ways to go. The Exynos variant is the real problem child due to Android 12 but even worse it's SoC is a mess. The clock throttling which is required to keep the device from overheating has additional consequences which effect performance. Samsung rushed the S22 Ultra to meet sales targets without due diligence and testing on hardware, software and performance. I'm surprised to see it, typically they've done a much better job in previous releases.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cmfCyangenModteam:
Hey, just do it:

Unlock Developer settings.

Find setting Background process limit.

Choose No Background processes.

+ Disable Google Services
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Nghtmare:
I noticed that almost everyone has Google Play Services as one of the main reasons for battery drain on this phone. Any idea why? Never had this in my 10+ years using Android.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Google play Services behaves in a similar way on my N10+'s. Got irritated with it and it's dependencies.

It's just easier to disable Google play Services when not needed🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] gass88tp:
good morning everyone, I am writing to you from s 22 ultra exynos version, have you noticed some jerky lag on the facebook apps and on the samsung browser and instagram like the one of the link
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] homeedition88:
Yeah it explain a lot. In game graphical problems, lag in UI shows driver/hardware issues causes by Exynos 2200. Very unfortunate situation. Software fix can only iron out some of the problems but I never seen a drastic performance improvement with a software update.

By the way, I again wipe the system from recovery menu and factory reset it. It again works fine without a massive lag. Before installing a latest update made it unbearable laggy.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lawtq:
Had to manually update mine. Samsung being too damn slow for my liking. Does it feel better after update, I'm not sure.

This thing was ready to go back till I heard of the update so I'll try it amber see if it changes my mind
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cmfCyangenModteam:
In my opinion you need to disable GAPPS

GAPPS always as problem for battery and FPS.
