lag/scrolling on xda forums - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does any on suffer with the same thing when scrolling on xda forums? Its like the browser can't keep up and all squares appear for a second or so till it finally settles down. Most other websites are the OK although I have noticed it on other ones too. I've tried dolphin browser too but the same thing happens.

Seems like it happens sometimes, but I use XDA Premium

I get this too- parts of the screen will be blank for a second or two, especially when scrolling from quickly from one end to the other. I have the default set to display 50 posts per page- maybe it might be more responsive with less posts.

Thanks for the reply guys. It does seem better on a post like this which only has a couple of reply. I just wondered why it happens on this site and others are OK

it's not only the amounts of posts, but the ads that are everywhere. so far there is no adblocker for the stock browser and adfree is only for rooted devices. lagfree are xda or tapatalk apps.

Ive found a fix... kind of. Switching the theme to classic in user profiles makes the forums much more usable

Browsers defo need a fix. Ive tried miren - fc if you leave the page, dolphin mini not powerfull enough and jumpy, stock is ok but can just close randomly. Im using dolphin hd which is an improvement but even oc and the custom roms dont remedy it completely but definately much much better.
Can only put it down to a bug. My sgs 2 does the same, my gtab done it until the devs sorted it out.
Classic view certainly is better - cheers for that

I agree it could do with a fix. Tonight I tried my cousins Ipad 1 and although it wasn't perfect it handled this forum better than our dual core tegra machines do. What was even more annoying was Google maps in street map mode was smoother at looking around than ours. Come on Google sort it out!

Yeah, changing the style to "XDA Classic" (bottom left) helps a lot.

have you tried Dolphin for Pad or whatever it's called? There seems to be a tablet version of Dolphin Browser but if I remember correctly it was still beta. should be on the market though.

I prefer to browse xda using Tapatalk, but if you must use a browser for everything I suggest using Opera Mobile. The scrolling in Opera is a little choppy at times, but I almost never get blank areas on the pages while scrolling.
Bear in mind that much of these issues are due to the fact that most webpages these days have way more content and ads than mobile devices are designed to handle. Web developers need to learn to exercise some restraint and simplify their pages. I say stop visiting websites that are bogging down or crashing your device.

Has the browser lag been fixed?

http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/12/22/google.pushes.first.nexus.s.firmware.update/
So apparently the first update for the nexus s. 2.3.1 was suppose to address the browser lag.
I've been creeping the Nexus s forum for a bit now and was wondering if the browser is as smooth as the galaxy s.
It seams like the browser when compared to the Atrix(had and returned) is a bit smoother.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm3BJ2vKpGM
What are you guys experiencing right now?
The Galaxy S browser is special, it's hardware accelerated. The NS one isn't, and thus isn't as smooth.
Do you think Google will release the same update down the road? Have they acknowledged this problem yet?
There's alternative browsers such as Dolphin Browser HD. They work fine... at least for me.
It honestly does not make sense that Google would not address the browser lag. I hope it gets addressed asap cause I love going on worldstarhiphop

Even with dolphin HD it lags. It even lags on the market website when you have the app screenshot on the page, how ironic...
The thread about black wallpapers here is impossible to scroll with NS. Disappointing and unacceptable.
No I don't think its been fixed yet. Galaxy s is a special case cause Samsung hardware accelerated it for that phone. How ironic, Samsung giving a better update over Google.
Opera !!! FLASH WORK
NO LAGG AT ALL !!!
Opera need to be ORIGINAL browser
On my side it feel somewhat slow when there is a Flash applet in the page and I try to zoom in while the page is still loading. But after that it seems to be fairly quick to respond.

Just curious if it's his phone.
It's actually a bit choppy on Opera 11... weird. First site that I've seen that made Opera 11 slow down a lot. If you think that's bad though... try that site on the regular android browser. It's basically unresponsive lol. There's something at the top of that page that's causing the browser to bog... perhaps a bit of bad website code?

Nah it's not that bad at all. Sure it's not great, but it's quite usable.
You know what, I had the same issue with my nexus s, really bad lag, even swiping down the mobile Facebook page was stuttery. I only just had mine, and it was already rooted with natarchy's kernel on and overclocked to 1.2Ghz. Also with clockworkmod flashed. So I thought this was a deal breaker, so last night I found s method using a nandroid backup off here to flash it back to stock, relocked the bootloader, and took it upstairs to charge up, ready to take back today. Well, guess what, tried it out again while lying in bed, and on every single big site I could think of, even like engadget. Like all the YouTube browser tests it was really quick, so I thought I'd put flash back on to measure the impact it had, which was minimal. The wife has an iPhone 4 so I pinched her phone and did a side by side comparison of browser load speeds and the nexus s was constantly a bit quicker, so, take from this what you will, is it rooting?, maybe it was the governor I was using, or the kernels, but it is more than respectable now. Also, scrolling through big pages is smooth too btw.

A little off topic but is there ANY way to get an unlimitedbdata plan if you have a new account?
If not...its back to sprint and bye bye GS2 for me. Already over the 2G mark and only twobweeks in!

Problems with droid charge?

Anyone having performance issues with their charge? I had high expectations for this phone but im getting lag in just about everything. . IE this forum scrolling through threads is way laggy compared to fascinate. Im not sure if I have a bunk phone or if the hardware sucks or if its the ROM just sucks. Any hope for this phone?
No I'm noticing some laggy browsing as well. Coming from the Droid Incredible i figured this would be much quicker. At times I think 3g on it was faster than wifi on this. Im sure it'll speed up once the cache builds up for the sites i browse. I also notice my linpack and quadrant scores are pants on this. I would love root and a new kernel but that damn ota seems to be holding us back.
My guess is its the charge's browser. I read reviews where it has bad problems with sites with a lot of flash (such as the ads). just tried this site on both the stock browser and dolphin browser and dolphin browser works fine.
It was nearly unreadable on the stock browser. So try a browser from the market.

You're right, browsing on Dolphin seems much faster. It does still hang at the end but it isn't nearly as bad.
Also, while I know its a completely different phone from what I had, the keyboard and auto-correct drive me absolutely mental.
Auto correct can be turned off in menu->settings->keyboard
I just noticed that I have two burnt out pixels .. ack. bright red dots, mostly noticeable on boot screens.
I think it's the ROM. Everything seems sluggish / lags randomly on my charge. So far it really feels like touchwiz is to blame, but I imagine the filesystem is partially to blame.
It really sucks that my year old Incredible seems faster than a brand new "flagship" phone.
I removed alot of bloatware installed launcher pro and Opera mini, then I also removed Touch wiz and the phone is alot faster. Installing launcher pro and then removing/renaming the touch wiz apk made a big difference performance wise. I have no lag when using the interface now. And yes the stock browser is crap, I thought it was the phone as well, but after installing Opera I notice a big difference.
what exactly does the TouchWiz app do? What do you lose by freezing it?

TouchWiz is Samsung's launcher. Do NOT freeze or remove it before downloading an alternative (such as LauncherPro) and rebooting to activate it. Otherwise ODIN will be in your immediate future.

yes, that happened to me earlier today! hahaha.
Just picked up the Charge on Saturday..coming from a rooted eris. .did notice a little lag. Immediately installed launcher pro and noticed quite a difference.
One thing i notice is the menu keys do not light up..making it a little difficult to use in the dark. Any one else experience this and find a solution.

I believe the keys not lighting up was also the default behavior for the Fascinate, and that was resolved with a custom kernel. This may be inaccurate, as I came from the Droid X, but luckily the key layout is identical so I didn't need any time to relearn.

[Q] Performance Problems whit Transformer Eee Pad

Hi there..
Im very disappointed whit the performance from Eee Pad. Moving between the screens is not fluent, after installing the Prime Rom v1.5 it was better, but thats not the only one issue..
So, first as wrote: Moving betweens the screens, not fluent, then moving in the App Menu, not fluent too.
Seccond problems and which are very important for me, if this Eee Pad is for a normal daily use or not, whit my experience in the last two day, more not than yes.
Biggest performace issue, i think it have something whit the flash, is browsing and the market. The response time in browser is more than bad, sometimes the browser need two/three secconds to execute a command like a simple click on a link button. Writing in a forum its very terrible, the capitals comes to late, sometimes it skip some capitals or free space between the words, the keyboard have lags and its not fast.. Sometimes the page didnt show correct, the only way to get it right, close the browser and open it again.
If i browse in the market at the same time im in internet, the scrolling is so ****ing slow and so ****ing laggy, its really not acceptable.. the scroll speed in the browser self is not much better..
This problem stil exist, it does not matter stock or custom rom..
Im really really disappointed about this, i paid the device 650CHF, its around 500€ maybe more, but my galaxy s 2 works much better and faster, really its not a joke!!
My question at you, did somebody share this experience whit me or im alone whit this opinion??
If some DEV read this Theard, then i would ask it all, is there a fix which we get soon to fix this performance problems? Otherwise, i will sell this device..
Many thanks!
Best regards,
Adnan.
Don't have the issues you describe. I had the zoom before as well as a ipad. Maybe you got a bad one our your expectations are too high for a tablet?
I would have it checked out...nothing but great performance on mine...

Thers some performance problems but not many now, many are problems with honeycomb and tegra aupport since theyre both relatively new. Did you do a clean flash of prime 1.5 and overclock? That seemed to fix a lot of problems for me. Honeycomb 3.2 should fix a lot of problems and hopefully it wil be available to us within the next few weeks.
Weird. I don't have any of those problems, except making a post on this forum takes forever for the letters to show up in the box.

*smile thats the question, is it my pad, or is it me.. but i dont wont to game whit it, everything what i need is 100% working browser and device, whitout lags, everything fluent whit no hangs.. thats it..
take a look on this review, --> title in youtube --> iPad 2 vs Asus EEE Pad Transformer - quick comparison <-- i have the same problems, and maybe bit more.. you see when hi try to scroll, it works after third try, or when hi try to press the full screen button for video play.. so when you the whole day press everything two three times, its very bad.. move betweens the screens its not so bad, bud not fluent..

Have you tried installing system panel, then loading the kill all widget, the white X looks the best and goes with the desktop weather app etc. Just click on it to end processes. I stopped using a task killer on my HTC Desire HD with 2.3 but think Honeycomb still needs one at this moment in time. Opera mobile sorts lag in typing on XDA, also great for pinch and zoom in youtube web page.

What web browser do you use?

So many options when it comes to browsers on the market today. I figure some of you bounce around from browser to browser like I do.
Whats your favorite and why?
My vote is probably XScope seems to be smoothest and nicest UI for me.
Dolphin HD myself, nothing comes close

lets get some reasons why. not to be annoying just bored at work
Yeah, I also like xscope. I have dolphin installed also though.I like how xscope doesn't have to reload the pages when you go back to a previous page.in dolphin, I had to keep opening and closing multiple tabs to circumvent the problem. And xscope's layout is pleasing also.
I use Dolphin HD because it's the closest thing to a regular browser. I have never used Xscope but I think I'll check it out.
I think i might be making the change to Opera since it uses their servers and reduces data usage on your phones end. Im a broke college kid with T-Mobiles ****ty 2GB 4G cap
2 Days and im at 300mb already..(no wifi at work)
That seems to be a good work around to your problem. Does it save even more data than just changing your user agent to android rather than computer?
I've been using stock since release but recently decided to test out Dolphin HD.
so far, I really like it.
feature I love the most is the gesture.
I can just scribble a pattern and it will take me to the webpage I assigned that particular scribble to.
very convenient.
also the tab feature with shake add-on.
it's like Google Chrome and you can shake your phone to change tabs.
speaking of add-ons, some helpful ones like the shake and screen cut.
I like the true desktop view option.
you can access your bookmarks and tool bar by just sliding the page left or right.
also very convenient.
doesn't seem to load all the flash ads as fast or well as stock. most of the time I just get a little emblem where the ad should be. guess if I clicked on it it would load the ad... not complaining though. who needs ads.
I'm still in the testing stage with different browsers, used to use Opera on my old phone, but so far, I'm really digging Dolphin HD.
I use stock. I see no reason to use a 3rd party browser. Stock does everything I need.

It renders pages on their servers first, taking stress off your phone and reducing data. Speed's things up but I believe it does reduce image quality a little bit. (image reduction is honestly not really noticeable)

[Q] browser Performance

i just asked myself something and maybe someone could held me out. is there anychance we can hope for a better browser performance for our sensation? as i see the browser of de galaxy2 is hardware accelerated but not of our sensation. And the browser performance on my friends stock samsung galaxy s2 is still far smoother then on our heavily tuned sensation (InsertCoin 2.2.1 ROM for me)
im a bit disappointed of this browser performance

honest answer:
just try the xda main forum (overview of all phones)
this ist just not acceptable. It laggs like f**king hell. Not all pages lag though. Though i recognize mini stutter and short lags on most of the pages. I really dont like this.
And i must say im always using the desktop view, not the mobile view.
and i cannot understand why a "dualcore" 1.2ghz!!! CPU is not able do render a webpage at 30fps. This lag feels like about 10fps browsing the xda Main Forum.
Even my old ancient pentium2 266mhz notebook is able to handle this page fluid.
Whats going wrong?
I know exactly what you're talking about, and if the Galaxy S2 can do that smoothly, that's awesome. But as far as usability goes, and me coming from a Galaxy S with Cyanogen.... it's way faster.
But I draw the line at usability. I used to go to www.ablogtoread.com often on the Galaxy S just to be completely slaughtered by a near completely lock up. I can browse that fine now.
The hardware acceleration does cause a tangible decrease in battery life as well. That's one side effect. Maybe someone can shed some light on this, maybe there is a hardware accelerated browser down the pipeline? Maybe Cyanogen will come through with that?
It's probably not what you want to read, but have you given Opera a try? It is way smoother than the stock browser, at least a far as rendering/scrolling. If you want to give that a try, get the bigger version of it from the market. I can't speak about the smaller one, but I think it is not as fast or as full featured as its big brother.

Everything is very smooth, the UI, scrolling, pinch zoom,... Opera is supposed to be hardware accelerated, probably that's why
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
I think Opera on my Galaxy S 1 was smoother than the stock browser on the Sensation. Now, all browsers are not perfect (in fact, it renders the main page for xda forums very incorrectly and unpleasantly, at least as far as color goes, lol) so see if Opera is right for you.

gonna try opera in the next few minutes and try to share experience.
Still i gotta say im using the Dolphin HD browser and not the original browser, this is even worse
tried opera now and i must say that it is really a lot smoother then dolphin! Not as smooth as the sgs2 but near already. Only downside is the slow loading performance when loading other pages. Dont know why but dolphin loads pages almost twice as fast.
Damn couldnt be the two just be combined and we could enjoy a really superb browser
Hope theres still some performance optimations lleft for our device

i mostly never had an issue with browser performance on sensation. may be once in a while i will see some delay in loading the page, but that may be due to spotty t-mobile network.
Opera Mini must be the one I used with my Sony Ericsson s710 then, lol. Ah, the good old days of gprs.
