Can someone please help me get rid of the horrible lag on this tablet its unbearable..I have the wifi US version.
Thanks
A friend of mine got me the US P6210 (EULA3 Firmware) on holiday and bought it back to the UK for me.
I know exactly what you mean mate. The lag was horrible. Id open ONE browser window and it would crash after some time! crazy stuff.
Anyway the only way I solved this problem was by installing a new ROM. Its the Galaxy ROM HD by Ace9876. The visuals are exactly the same and you wont notice any difference but the ROM is highly optimized and tweaked for speed and stability. That, you can notice! Since I installed that ROM I have no problems with lag or stutter or whatever. I can have 10 tabs open in the browser and no lag whatsoever. Amazing.
First youll need to be rooted and also have Clockworkmod installed. This thread shows you how: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379532
Then you need to install the ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697123
Enjoy.
I was able to minimize some of the lag by rooting, removing the bloat, then installing a different launcher (like go launcher or adw)

Every now and then my homescreens gets very sluggish and laggy, to make them turn I really need to be explicit and slow in gesturing. It seems to start at random, haven't found anything that appears to set it off.
Reebooting solves the problem, until next time of course. Getting quite annoyed with it at this point.
I have tried disabling live wallpaper and taking a look at what apparently are running, but it doesn't seems to be the problem.
It's a nexus s i9023 running 2.3.6 stock. Not rooted.
Hope there's a reply out there, thank you.

what possibly happened was you may have bunch of apps that autorun themselves when certain events occur such as when you regain network signal, receive a phone call, turn on screen, etc... over time these apps take up cpu which cause the lags you're experiencing. i would suggest rooting your phone and install Rom Toolbox or buy Autostarts app to stop some of these apps from autorunning.. The Nexus S is the easiest and most painless device to root.

I'm running almost the same apps as on my old Wildfire, and enver encountered the problem with it.
I'd prefer not to root my phone at this point. Bought just under a month ago, with the idea of running stock to see how the "pure android" experience was
I also find it hard to imagine that there isn't another way around the problem.
It just doesn't make sense to me that it takes so little to bog down the phone and that the solution is root
mine got very slow on 2.3.6 after not having done a wipe for 6-7 months. I didn't even have many apps installed. The phone runs a lot faster on ICS rooted or not.
Yeah, I've heard it should run better with ics and I'm quite tempted to just go for it with one of the many ROMs out there. Must admit I'm hoping for the official ota to arrive soon. I'd like to keep the phone unrooted so it'll recieve the official update. But if the wait proves too long I might just have to find a good ROM
Any advice for a stable no-fuzz ROM that won't cause me too many issues with stuff not working properly?
The issues with the lagging homescreens have been present in 2.3.3 as well. Was hoping 2.3.6 would fix it, but alas:-\

you can also just install advanced task killer (free on market) and kill some apps that are running and u might not need them.
Also you can try the Go lancher Ex (free on market - is a lancher that runs themes and schemes, from my experience this app make everything run smoother and faster).
Anyway like others said already custom ISC are really nice to use
cheers
Installed ADW launcher.EX and it appears to have solved the issues. Thanks for the input

Hi all, So i have a galaxy tab 2 7" gt-p3113 with root access. I need to know how to, if possible, downgrade from the stock ics 4.03 that it was shipped with to Honeycomb. There just arent enough apps availiable for ICS and a lot of them are so buggy I'd rather have honeycomb. Any ideas? If I am not mistaken the process is pertinent to each device and might not even be possible since the gt-p3113 and gt-p3110 are shipped with ics... Hopefully it can be done

nothing to downgrade. ics is stock lowest on these. And I don't see much desire to develop custom roms for an older android system. Best bet just wait it out, ics is new, just like hc and gb were. When they came out apps had glitches too.
I haven't found any apps that give me issues on ICS yet. Have you bothered reporting the apps you're having issues with to let the developer(s) know there are problems? Also, the only way to get Honeycomb would be to build it from AOSP, which likely isn't going to happen.
What apps are you having issues with? I haven't seen any apps having issues with ics.

Yeah ok... i was just hoping. Yes I have been reporting all the issues. Alot of them its mostly it loads to the title screen then crashes and closes. I cant tell you specifically which ones, its happened with a lot of apps, mostly games tho. I just really want to be able to play nova 3 and modern combat 3 and Im having trouble getting an apk and the sd data files...

I've gotten those two games to run and download SD data by modifying my build.prop to match the Galaxy Nexus.. You don't want to run them on your tablet anyway, it was quite laggy when I tried. Other GL games work fine.. like order and chaos, asphalt 6, etc.
ya same nova3 was fine mc3 was super laggy and choppy.... sad day.
would overclocking it help? and if so, what is it safe to overclock it to?

Mc3 maybe didn't run right because it needs some mods. It didn't run right on my phone until they released it officially for it.
not enough ram for ics os
galaxy 2 doesn't have enough ram to run ics and apps too, at least not efficiently. I have sg2 phone and now the tab and I think ICS uses too many resources to allow apps to run effectively too. I see alot of force closes and very laggy performance . I upgraded phone to iCS and hated it. Odined back to gingerbread. May take the tab back because of ics. (Tab has same memory structure as sg2 phone ). I do use GO launcher which I'm sure eats some resources ,so I'll try taking that off and see if there is a vast improvement, but I suspect there won't be .
I've actually found ICS to be less buggy then HC and GB. Maybe your fc issues are caused by something else? Gameloft's non-support for the gtab2 is a known issue, but the other problems could be fixed by fixing permissions in CWM.
Hello everyone,
To be honest, a couple month ago, I was an Apple freak. iPad 1 and 2 and 3, but since I bought a Galaxy S3,i'm out of this religion and I become in love with Android so much open, free etc.... And a couple week after, I sold my Ipad and bought a TF700
In fact, I'm a little bit Disappointed with my TF700.... Lag when I switch from a page to another on my desktop and a lot of lagging with Dolphin, specially with XDA... Text take time to load and some time I can only reach a blank page etc.... This problem can happen with any webpage.. Also, Keyboard can be a pain in the....
I'm not a poweruser, I'm just looking to send mail, browse the web and have a smooth experience and what I would like to know is simple...
Do you know a custom rom that could improve my experience with this tablet Something better than the stock Asus. I'm afraid to unlock and loose my warranty, so I want to make sure that I will improve my experience
Thank for taking time to read my poor english.

Yes - Zeus 4.0 and Boat Browser (along with Browser2RAM)! It's like it's a different tablet after these three!
At least until the official JB ROM is released (the CM10 versions aren't quite ready for prime time, in my opinion).

Even with the stock ROM, it shouldn't lag on the desktop... Have you updated the firmware ?
If so, I noticed mine to lag a little bit after an update : doing a full wipe helped a lot !
And before losing your warranty by unlocking, you might want to try to optimize the stock ROM by freezing a few apps (root the tablet and use apps like ROM Toolbox or Titanium backup)
Have a look on Diabolos topic too.
CM10 flies and profits a lot from project butter in Jelly Bean there's a problem in portrait mode though which hopefully will be fixed soon.

Opened my brand new Tab 2 P5110 10.1 yesterday and immediately received the Jellybean 4.1.1 OTA upgrade (UK).
I have noticed there is a certain lagginess when scrolling. Not a lot, but it is noticeable.
I even notice it when scrolling web pages.
I installed Apex launcher to see if that would help with the UI, (as I know there are options to speed things up), but the lagginess is still there.
I'm actually kind of underwhelmed by my Tab, after using my GT-N7100 Note II, and I can see I'll just end up selling it on if it doesn't improve.
Anyone recommend a ROM that will speed up my lovely TAB?
It's rooted, and can add CWM easily enough. No external SD card.
Thanks in advance.
lag free kernal
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1950052 try this kernel out it will remove ALL YOUR LAG and help with your gaming I tested it and it worked flawlessly its for rooted stock ROMs I hope it helps you
Thanks.
Will this work on 4.1.x (Jellybean) rather than just 4.0.4 as the original post?

Interesting but i came from a Note 2 to a P3100 (needed a bigger screen) and after flashing to jerky bean i too had high hopes after using the note and it being blazingly fast. The simple truth was i noticed that due to the lack of memory compared to the note and its whopping 2GB RAM, it did lag the more apps I had open. I have managed to solve this by disabling a ton of Samsung stuff, and i regularly hit the clear all icon to shut down apps in the background.
Sounds like a hassle but it really isn't and doing this keeps my tab running blazing fast with no lag.
Bottom line i don't think the tab will run the same as the note 2....but of you figure out a way, if be interested to know.
Had a friend with the same problem on his 10.1 and he's done the same as me and he's seen an improvement.
I also installed holo launcher and have to confess I've never looked back!

No it will not work.
Maybe you can try any custom ROM in here.. . They get running smooth too.
There are Zero jellybean custom roms based on stock for P5110 I flashed the official CLK7 version with Odin and rooted it, then uninstalled the samsung bloatware, and it runs pretty fine, but it could definitely be better...

Problem is: there is always something not working properly with custom roms thats why I dont want to flash just yet.
Best would be clean, optimised stock rom with custom kernel.
I like the way it feels its just the lag is unbearable....
I haven't touched a Samsung device since the galaxy s1 i9000 and have stuck to nexus phones since that time.
I thought I would give Samsung another blast this year and see if they have redeemed their selves over the years in regards to the amount of animation stutter and input lag since they claimed to have streamlined TW and have started using their own processors to make everything work in harmony etc.
The phone itself is really really great and I quite like it but I again am still getting animation stutter all over the place.
Scrolling in play store is horrible. The simple tasks of pressing between the tabs in the dialer is the worst out of them all them and really has terrible animation and most apps stutter like mad where my old nexus 5 was nice and smooth which I can only blame TW for. Even the keyboard goes nuts if you try to look through the emojis. There's no excuse for this in this day and age with what this phone is packing.
Is it just my device or is anyone else getting a lot of stutter etc on their device?
Is their anything that can be done to solve the issue other than swap the phone

5.1 kinda made this issue a lot worse! I set animation in dev option to 0.5x and it helps a little!
You can try a custom ROM. You often get a much better performance with it. Or try to root and uninstall bloatware. Hope this helps.

Any links to guides on this. I used Odin back in the day a lot to flash custom ROMs but that's going back a long time.

1. Use the first link if you want to keep your warranty safe.
2 A nice, clean, fast ROM you can use (it's the one i'm currently using) also, I would like to give back-to-n0t3 a shot soon.
Note 5 user here. Same issues on this device It's really disappointing Scrolling lag is so much higher than on my OPO.
I have no lag at all on mine running 5.1.1 - I'm usually pretty sensitive to it!

Please don't withhold all information. First link's method only works on S6 variants G92XF/T. It does not work on other variants and if attempted will cause a soft brick. For other variants of S6 on 5.1.1 there is no way to root or install custom kernels without tripping Knox.
On the subject of lag, proper usage of the phone and knowing how to free up RAM can reduce lag on your phone. Examples include clearing recent activities, using Smart Manager to "clean up" background activities and rebooting the phone every few days. With root you can use more efficient methods like Titanium Backup to freeze apps and Greenify to kill background processes. Don't just sit there complaining about lag this and lag that, go and read up on how to free up RAM on your phone and reduce lag on it.
