i just want to know if anyone have experienced sluggish scrolling with sensation 4g. i mean it never run slow its just on the internet or anything that require scrolling it scrolls slow and sluggishly compared to my old Samsung vibrant its never snappy even the navigation bar scroll down slowly and sluggishly no matter what rom im on and i tried a lot of roms. i just want to know if yours is the same

I've never had a problem with virtuous inquisition. And if you can live without a camera, Jelly bean has basically no lag anywhere

Since you are talking about browsing, it also depends on what connection speed you get & page load time.
If you are multitasking, & browsing, it sometimes is sluggish.
Try a different kernel, and clock it to 1.5GHz, that should be good enough.
The scrolling on the sensation's default browser is never smooth.
OT: tinky1 just made a mention of something that might make your post legible, there was no need to go on about it. The thread is about scrolling, stick to that topic please.

Sense 3.0 Speed in Sensation vs EVO 3D

I checked the below video from Androidcentral.com
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMioPBv4PbI&feature=player_embedded
Looks like the EVO 3D got better handling on graphics speed. Is this because of the extra RAM? I just bought sensation and i still see some lag in overall touch and scroll experience. Its not bad but not very good either considering the beast hardware. Hope this can be solved by ROM chefs or by HTC themselves when they release a patch or something...
It is a sexy device ,the speed is pretty good for me I really don't get lag ,the data problems could just be some peoples service area ,but overall I'm loving the phone

Yep there are a number of people experiencing this with the Sensation including me. I'm getting mine exchanged but I have a feeling this is going to be an issue until we get an OTA
I have no doubt that there is much performance to be gained from these devices.
The ram isn't the reason. Probably just coding, I wouldn't worry about it.
For those of you who are familiar with HTC, do updates usually improve the speed and smoothness of the phone? And how about battery?

Yes and yes. Normally.
If they don't the community here certainly will.
I saw that video yesterday and it gave me hope. Like many of you have said, I doubt it's the memory memory that's causing the lag. I'm sure with a few tweaks here and there they can speed up sense 3.0 on this device.
Im really very curious as to what is causing people lag. Mine is butter smooth and currently lag free

Like the Evo 3D on the video?
Who actually cares, though? The phone flies as it is and the next OTA will only improve that. Just enjoy the phone and stop comparing it to everything else
The difference is obvious and I haven't seen any Sensation that smooth on any video.
I'm pretty sure it's not the ram that causes lag. If it was ram Desire S Sense 3.0 port wouldn't have been so smooth like on that video.

Pretty sure the 1.34.401.1 ROM runs better from what I've heard so the next OTAs to come out will prob address the issue
I'm more than sure the evo 3D is just running a updated version of sense than ours. Stop stressing people.. Sheesh.

I think its more to do with the screen (panel) and its refreshing rate and rendering speeds. Evo 3D screen might be totally different from sensartion as its a 3D display. I could be wrong and i wish i am wrong. I am hoping for a OTA or custom Rom solve this... still sensation is a better device and i am loving it...
What bloatware does the Evo 3D have loaded onto it? At least those of us on T-Mobile US are stuck with an anti-malware engine that we can't uninstall. It can't be helping.

What app is that? ill uninstall it NOW. Yes i'm on TMOUSA.
I don't think it's a RAM issue at all. I think it's one of two issues. Either it's all of the bloatware that starts up automatically every time you try to close it and some of which is not just running in the background. It is running in the foreground such as QIK video chat. I have never even used it before but it constantly want to run in the foreground. The other reason is that Sense 3.0 might not be fully optimized yet.
Here is why I think the bloatware is causing the issues. After I use a app that restarts everything (Fast Reboot) the system will be showing about 300mb of free memory is available. If you wait 30 minutes, the system then says less than 150mb of free memory available. I really do think that some of the bloatware is causing performance issues and memory leaks.
What is also weird is that I have had 4 Sensations with the same exact apps on them. I have noticed a difference in speed between all 4 of them. The one that I have now is the quickest and there is no stutter at all. The second one I had was lagging so bad that I just returned it for another. This tells me it's all software related.
Mine doesn't really lag but I can't get that carousel effect anymore. I've learned that if the phone works well keep it cuz you never know what kind of crappy replacement you might get

Browser Speed

I posted this on another forum, and the conclusion was that flash support is why I've found that nearly all web pages load faster on my wife's iPhone 4 than my Thunderbolt.
I'm not really satisfied with that answer... does anybody else notice that there is a delay before web pages actually load? The delay is usually a second or more, and occurs in all the browser's I've tried so far. On my wife's iPhone 4, there is absolutely no delay on loading most sites. I've put the phones side to side, and gone to a variety of websites doing my best to press the load button at the same time. iPhone always loads the page initially quicker than the Thunderbolt.
After the second or so delay, web pages load pretty quick, but that delay really gives the feeling of a sluggish browsing experience.
Any way to remedy this? I've tried turning off flash support, but had no luck.
UPDATE: Made a quick video comparison. It's obviously NOT a well-controlled experiment . I'm sure there is a couple millisecond difference between finger pushes on each phone, but either way the iPhone loads the page quicker. I just recorded whitehouse.gov, since neither phone has been on that site AFAIK since we got them. But I assure you that the same difference happens on most other websites. I'm in a well-covered 4g area, and speed tests the past couple of weeks ranged from 10 - 20 mbps down and 6-15 mbps up, so I don't think that's the problem. I'm using the Miren browser in this video, but I've also tried Oper HD, dolphin lite, and the stock browsers.

It's not a 'problem' per se. I love the phone. I'm just wondering a) if anybody else has noticed this, and b) if anybody has any alternative explanations for why browsing, at least for me, doesn't seem blazing fast... particularly since I'm on the 4G LTE network, and the only other phone I've had experience with (iPhone) seems to have a faster browsing experience despite being limited to 3G.
The stock browser is sluggish. I have noticed the same thing with the browser hanging but only on sense roms. I switched to miren browser and all is well.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
I have noticed this. I'm rooted but on the stock ROM and I see significant slowness in the browser. Sometimes the browser will not load a page at all and the bar will stay at around 75% complete and never go any further. If I close the browser and try again it will sometimes completely load but most times I just have to wait and try it later. This is not what I was experiencing when I first got it.
None of my browsers fail to begin loading the page immediately after I hit "go" :/

Coming from the Archos and ViewSonic tablets, plus Galaxy S phones, I got in the habit of only using Dolphin Browser.
My TBolt is fine in Dolphin Browser, and exceeds the Archos A70 that I use every day. I try to maintain low expectations, that way I can be positively surprised.
The stock browser works very smoothly for me on cm7, and I'm not overclocked. You could always try dolphin or opera.
xScope is my favorite for speed and features.
I only use the stock browser for Hulu now.

If my GFs iphone loaded pages more quickly than my Tbolt on 4G, I would definitely consider that a problem. What are your typical 4G download speeds? I get between 14-20 Mbps on speakeasy.net (stock browser)

[Q] Why is the Sensation so sloppy and sluggish?

In all seriousness, does anyone really know the reason? It seems to make a mess of the hardware. Bad software maybe? What are peoples thoughts on this. Also if you state that it is "smooth" please post your previous phone, because if you came from a G1, then yes this is smooth to you. I just thought this thing would be flying around like crazy but its simply not.
The software isn't optimized for the hardware. This phone should be a screamer and extremely fluid given the CPU inside of it.

Posted with nook color running cm7 and dals OC kernel.
i dont know what you guys are talking about, i havent had ANY lag with sense 3.0, the only lag i experience is with certain apps, but again, as aNYthing24 said, and ive posted numerous times, 2.3.3 is NOT optimized for our hardware, and until we get 2.3.4 or ICS, this fone will ALWAYS "seem" slower than a SGS2 or an "older" htc device that is s-off rooted running cm7 :/ (my HD2 appeared to run "faster" at certain task than my S4G, but its purely because of the hardware/software restrictions)
this "lag" you are experienceing is either due to the 3d rosie transition effects that you arent used to, or there are too many apps chewing up the ram
Few options...
Uncheck the "tell htc" thing
Uncheck the "check for software update" thing
Disable syncing for those apps whom you dont use. Like i dont use stocks and news so i have their syncing disabled.
I hope it will work for you.

another really good way to speed it up is to disable animations.

Except you can't disable HTC animations.
The phone is OK. Sometimes scrolling through menus it stutters. I have a lot of bloatware also disabled through titanium backup, along with sense UI stuff like Widgets; I use launcher pro. It has gotten a lot faster from that. It is so slow because of the rom on here. Couple this phone with cm7 and it would probably be quite fast. Its not the fastest phone in the world though.

less Ram, no optimization, Sense too heavy. all of that is on HTC.

I also am having the same issues underlined in some of these replies.
I installed launcher pro, and it seemed to run much faster, except for some annoying jitter when I activate the launcher or scroll through apps. I suspect this will be addressed in an update, as my G1 was running CM6 with launcher pro, and it wasn't lagging at all.
Back to Sense 3.0. Yes, it does lag, even if ever so slightly, and yes, this is HTC's fault. Sense 3.0, although it adds a lot of eye candy, just doesn't handle the memory and processor efficiently.
On a phone with 768 MB of RAM and a dual core processor, how is it that Sense 3.0 seems to eat up almost all of the RAM and leave you with about 100 MB, according to the Task manager? This is some serious bloat.
I can't wait for some stable CM7 build to come out. HTC Sense 3.0 is nice, but I'm not sacrificing speed and efficiency for eye candy.

Remember, there is only 568mb of ram available since 200 is reserved for the gpu. But yeah, it seems sense is extra bloated, because accounting for all the apps that it says is running, plus my current free ram of 72mb, sense plus the os seems to use up around 350-400 mb

No, this is just giving you the placebo affect. Our Sense UI is a bit laggy although it's not unbearable but sitting next to my thunderbolt it's clear that there's more lag here then there needs to be. I'm certain it can be fixed with a larger software update. Until then i don't think there's any box we can check or uncheck to correct the real problem.

It is still a fast phone, but in comparison to others that are out there it's obvious that this the animations on the home screen and menu's could use some tweaking.
I think the touch screen issues may be part of what makes this thing feel slow. Coming from an overclocked N1, then an OC'd 1228mhz EVO 4G w/cm7, I noticed how good this thing felt the first 2 days.. Then a factory reset, ruu, nothin gets it back. A randomly unresponsive touchscreen feels a lot like a sluugish/slow phone.
lets just sum this thread up right here, Once rooted you'll see the things that the development team for HTC failed to do. This phone is great..but it doesnt matter how great the hardware is.. if the software is underachieved.

What phone did you have b4 the sensation?
Before root, I had a Vibrant running touchwiz. You really wanna talk about lag. This phone flies compared to touchwiz. And if you look at touchwiz 4.0 on the gs2, its a new version with the same screen to screen lag. I really don't notice any hang ups on my phone with all animations, 3D effect, and weather lockscreen. I'm still waiting to get that weird fast swipe touchscreen issue that other people had/have.

Im becoming just way too frustrated... fell in love with this game but my problem is that it doesnt work consistantly. Sometimes i open the application and its blazing fast... no lag on the home screens or even ingame at the hardest levels... other times i find it to be extremely laggy or even keeps getting stuck at the loading screen. Ive tried messing up with the cpu speeds and killing other tasks and i found absolutely no correlation between number of tasks running or the CPU clock speed used. Even got it blazing fast once while underclocked... and othertimes when its on performance setting... it struggles to go through the home screens of the game....
Does any one know why this sort of inconsistency is happening? Can I fix it?
( btw if you think it might be from some unexpected apps hogging up the CPU, ive already monitored my CPU usage and removed the one app that used to do that. now whenever im on my home screen ( golauncher) my cpu usage is consistantly 25% or less )
would greatly appreciate any input. thanks guys

theres not much we can do for 3rd party apps. you would have to contact the developer of it. Not to mention youve not told us anything about your phone. or what rom you are running, you could look at cpu usage in your info menu of your inspire *#*#4636#*#*
honestly it just sounds like the app isnt compatible with what you are running.

im using an htc inspire 4G on rooted stock rom. also I was just wondering if this could be something from my settings because the occasional lag seems to happen with other games as well just not as bad as this one.
By the way, I saw that you have an ATT logo near your profile so perhaps you can help me out with another problem. An app called stocks was using up a lot of my CPU all the time so I removed it even though it was in system files. could this be part of the problem?
thanks for the help
Nope. I've got an Inspire & i always remove the stocks apk, as well as others, as soon as i load a new ROM

Have you removed anything else from there. Like, did you root it just to remove the stocks app? What all have you loaded/deleted.
I only have the att icon because i use their service. Ive always removed apps i dont use, stocks, twitter, the social network stuff ive never heard of etc etc. never had any issues.
i rooted to get proxydroid then removed the stocks app coz it was just taking up so much cpu all the time... appart from that all other apps are well behaved if u will and i kept them
anyways i figured it out and its a weird reason. it seems like whenever im getting a bad wifi reception the entire thing goes slow ... if i turn off wifi other apps are fast again but gunbros for whatever reason is still slow untill i turn it back on and move closer to a router... i gues nit miust be an app flow... will try to retest this ans confirm my theory later

[Q] Lag with new 4.0.4 ICS?

I'm suffering lag on my Nexus S i9020a after the OTA update to ICS. Most of the time the launcher lags when switching from page to page. However sometimes it will be completely fluid. It's strange... It goes away after boot but then it comes back again. I noticed that I don't get lag on the stock wallpapers..? Anyways, it's very frustrating. For example, right now my phone is running smoothly, but in a matter of minutes it will start to lag again..
Also I was rooted before the update and when I updated I lost root but still had the superuser app.. Could that have something to do with the lag or something?
Any help would be GREATLYappreciated.
THANKS
Anyone?? Please??
I never noticed stock 4.0.4 is smoother than 4.0.3 ... And 4.0.4 potentiolly slower a bit .... But for sure 4.0.3 was god damn smooth for me and no lag at all...BTW I don't keep too much stuffs and apps because I don like slow systems ... A reset to factory and wipe everything can be useful ...
And to tell you the truth , I am started to feel that this Nexus S is dying for me for its very inferior data capability , rediculus 200-300ms pings and awful DL and UL speed compaired to SII or the T mobile blaze 4G

I did a reset twice and deleted the superuser app and it's much smoother. I also stopped killing processes and that helped a lot too. (when you hold down the home button and swipe to get rid of the task)
From my research, I concluded that killing tasks actually slows down the phone in the long run.

Hi! Android has a method to kill processes when it's necesary but installing programmes like "Task Killers" just slow down the system much more (because it stays open in the background) and contradict with the method of Android!

I didn't download a task killer, however I used the built in task viewer to kill the apps and instantly I received lag. Had to reset my whole phone because the lag wouldn't go away.
Frankly I think it's an ICS thing, I get a bit more lag with ICS on the screensaver and such for a brief second or two. It tends to go away pretty quickly though, and scrolling is usually pretty smooth.
xda<3 you seem to be a guy who likes to complain too much...You wanted ICS and now you got it ... Nexus S is a 17 month-old phone,thank god you have it and remember many similar devices or even better didn't...
Here I'm using Steve Garon's kernel, for my phone was the best choice. I'm also switched the original launcher to Apex, there is no lag when tapping the apps drawer and you can set landscape mode in homescreen, I really like it!

Yeah hopefully.. hopefully it's not my phone acting up or anything. The worst lag I receive is when I open the app drawer. It's such a pain. It lags intensely for a couple of seconds and scrolling through the app drawer is a pain for the first few seconds. Hope this will be fixed in updates.
Try Apex launcher, quicker than stock and comes with tons of settings. I'm a perfectionist too and the lags when oppening the drawer and scrooling menus where gone.
