I seem to be having problems with my D2G in which the interface gets very laggy at times. I also seem to have issues with the touch screen as it seems less responsive than my droid incredible.
Now before you ask I'm running the following.
Launcher:
Launcher Pro Plus
3 screens
4 widgets
Widgets:
Beautiful widgets
2x Extended Controls*4x1 and 3x1 widget*
Facebook
Now I have tried to use the stock launcher but even it seems to lag at times and I refuse to use a task killer since android 2.2 doesn't need one. Hell I never had to use one on my incredible since it got android 2.2.
Has any one else had this issue? Also does anyone have any work around for this is that does not require rooting? *I rather wait till we have the SBF before going down that road*
I decided to give that new adw-ex launcher a try.
So far I haven't noticed any real lag issues so maybe it was just launcher pro for once.
aaah I wont not ..launcher pro seems to handle live wallpapers better in terms of performance.
Hi, I have the galaxy tab 10.1 and I have installed an early klang of cm9, whilst everything is smoother on ics than on honeycomb 3.2, it still has a lot to be desired in terms of smoothness (but of course its an alpha, so its expected). I just really wanted to ask about the smoothness on an official build of ics for the xoom compared to 3.2 please? Especially in portrait on the launcher, as on this early build of ics on the galaxy tab 10.1 in portrait is still horrendously laggy, how is it on your official ICS please?
I know I have a different tab, but as they have the exact same specs, I was just hoping for a little glimpse into what ICS will be like fully optimized please. (I've looked at loads of videos on you tube of the xoom running ICS, but it is really hard to judge smoothness on videos) I know these are properly stupid questions, but any help would be appreciated, thank you
Hi everyone,
What is your favourite ROM for your android mobile ??
w8 ur post
My favourite Room for my HD2 is the [07 Feb 2012] [CMR] Team Blue Droid V3.5 Sensation xl Gen3 EU & Tmobile SonyXloud. I'm only one problem. I can't connect with my own wifi, but Dansta34, it's on this problem, because another people have the same problem than me. The room it's simply SPECTACULAR, my phone works better than all the rooms i prove, and also my battery don't need a continous charge and i also charge my battery one time to day.
Quite a subjective question, but I've enjoyed CM7 on my Nook Color, Evo 4G and Hero (CDMA). It's been nice to share the platform/experience between devices.
Rom Rom Rom
My favourite Rom isnt a particular rom per say but i prefer the stripped back roms with the bare minimum done to them so that i can customise myself not really into the cyanogenmod thing where everything is done for you but i do see the appeal for some
CM7 for my G2x and Overcome for my Galaxy Tab.
For my HTC Sensation ExtremeSensation™Series|ICS|Blaze|Blitz5|Very FAST Stable , good battery, stable and everything is going smoothly for now
I really like AdyScorpiusMIUI v4 based on ICS but it's not stable enough for me yet. I'm currently on CheckROM RevoHD™ V4 and I like it because it's stable and highly customisable with Kitchen Pro and JKay settings.
See my Sig.
I miss the WM days when Chefs would release Lite/Standard/Full Fat versions of each ROM. It makes me wonder why that has never really happened with Android.
Answers on a postcard...
i really like for my samsung i9001 the Broodrom RC3 Revision 2, very fast, low ram usage and smooth, easy installable through odin, pc setup tool for 1°installation and Broodrom Configurator to easily set and change all system settings such installing tweaks, accellerators and much more, a must have for samsung Galaxy S Plus!!!1
BroodRom for 9001
Best rom I've used is the Valhalla rom for the Samsung Galaxy S 4G. It's just a single core old phone, but with this rom it is so fast and smooth. It feels much faster and more stable than any of these new ICS rom for the Nexus S. Ofcourse the hardware has limitation, but interface wise its faster than some dualphones I've used too. This is of course coupled with the phone having Wolfson DAC for excellent sound quality.

My favourite ROM and the one that actually works for all my phone features is NeroDroid v5 for Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro Sk17i. Everything else has many bugs and most other ROMs doesnt work with the Hardware keyboard. The only thing I hate from the NeroDroid ROM is the bootanimation for the CWM, I had to use a custom kernel.
My favorite right now is Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 on my Aria, but I have a feeling that one Cyangoenmod 9 can make it out of alpha beta, it will be my new favorite ROM. I am super impressed with the CM developers. If you have not checked out Cyanogenmod, I highly recommend it.
I liked the Android 4.0.3 CM9 ROM for the Kindle Fire. I really liked the way it ran versus the stock OS.

This guy has ported Miui ICS to I9100 Like a boss
i am using Razodroid on my Galaxy Fit, its pretty fast and stable...
I have had a few smartphones and used dozens of ROMs and I always go back to Cyanogenmod.
Very reliable, great power management. It's the best way to get the most out of your hardware.
I've got to agree, ICS on the Kindle Fire is very nice, especially now that the touch screen issues seem to be fixed. It is very smooth, compared to stock or even CM7.
the latest and the stable one,,ofcourse..

Codename-Android ROM on my Nexus S. I like it because it is simple, clean, fast and full tweaked ICS .
so Google Now is super amazing, but more importantly super fast. I just imported it onto my Stock ICS acer icona A500 tab it works, but has some major bugs. It makes searching everything and anything fast and so I wondered why wouldn't Google port this to more devices? not like gingerbread or froyo, no my real question is why isn't this on computers? built into a google chome extension or into chrome intself? I don't think it would be possible for XDA developers to do this (both because this is a mobile focused place and because it sounds extremely difficult) ,but! if they did it, would be priceless. So what what do you guys think?
(wow I screwed up the title it's suppost to be; than ICS and jellybean, not and ICS and jellybean)
I think of the reasons why it cannot be ported to other phones is that Google Now runs optimally in a Jelly Bean-based kernel. That's why even though the devs have ported it to ICS ROMs, it is still having some problems. And if the device is running anything before ICS, then forget about it. The difference in kernels is the main roadblock.
And who needs Google Now in a browser, when google glasses comes out?
Hi,
I bought yesterday my galaxy s6. Everything was going fine, the new touchwiz looks really beaultifull, the screen was the best display I ever seen, the fingerprint sensor works great, etc.
Nevertheless, i noticed a stuttering/scrolling lag in almost every app. For example: scrolling up and down on whatsapp chats stutters every time. It is not smooth as my old iphone 5. On instagram, facebook, contacts, playstore, occurs the same problem... they are not heavy apps, I can not really understand why it is happening. It is bothering me and I will come back to apple if this problems persists.
Anyone have an idea about how to make it work perfectly as a gadget called "the next big thing" and that costs US$ 800 should?
I'm thinking in try to root and install a debloated room, but I will probably lost my warratie if I do this
Hey so while playing with some settings to try and prevent my apps from being killed so aggressively, I noticed that by limiting the amount of background process you can limit the amount of stutter. I have it set to "at most 4 processes" and I've noticed a vast improvement in the stuttering in apps. Just enable developer options and scroll all the way to the bottom and it should be there. Hope that helps!

1.Turn off power saving mode it causes glitches
2. Iphones have smoother scrolls than android becoz of optimisation of ui
Sent from my SM-G920I using XDA Free mobile app
in general, iphones are smoother in 3rd party apps, because of the optimization, and in facebook if you give it a couple of seconds to make it load everything then it wont lag or stutter, in twitter it does stutter......in contacts app there is no lag at all.....i am using the phone for about two and a half weeks.....
Hi everyone! I tried all the solutions that you mentioned... yesterday I tried many configurations and I realized that the main cause for the scrolling lag seems to be the google apps... I reset the phone 3 times and in my last try I installed whatsapp, configurated my e-mails, instagram and facebook was ok. But when I installed the play store, everything start to have lag/stutter.
Does anyone also noticed this?
It is important to mention that, even when the system was "good", when I was scrolling, I realized a slight stutter. It is really hard to accept that android will never be smooth as iOS. This galaxy s6 has a much much better specifications than apple's phone costs the same price.

I think this issue was discussed before here on XDA. If you do a search, you might be able to find a fix to your problem.

I tried to find a solution via xda and other forums and didn't the solution. I understood that this stutter is caused by the UI of Android, which loads the information different from in iOS. However, I didn't find any solution as you mentioned. Could you please post the link?

You should stop comparing android and ios, what ios does is loads everything first then displays and android does both at the same time, ios has too much optimisation to solve each and every smallest issue and they have enough time too as they have only 2 devices a year , though when you get a highly functional and customizable UI like android some stutter is understood in fact we users dont even notice it. Both ios and android are made differently they funtion differently and are made to please different types of customers android focuses more on funtions and features which are at much higher level than ios! Let me give you an example , even if you buy one of the best laptops you will still find stutter because the UI is too complex to work smoothly on the level of ios! If you know a little about coding you would have an idea that smaller the code smoother the program is and thats what ios does plus it has optimisation. My advice would be you would get used to it just ignore it and you will stop even noticing it plus you wpuld admire theore functional andrpid UI!

And they scroll much slower / more limited. Try to scroll through a long list or webpage with just one or two swipes - it's almost impossible on iOS because there seems to be a hard limit how far you can go with one swipe. This can be really annoying in daily usage if you want to get to the bottom of something, but also means that it has to load less content at once which makes it look smoother.

So the android will never be smooth as iOS? It's really hard to understand the reason. For example, windows phones is smooth as iOS and was made to work with several hardwares.
There is any way or app that could help the scrolling by slowing down as you told?

See stutter is only seen in 3rd party apps which are made by other developers and not google ,you wont see them in preloaded apps,so it would be wrong to blame android for that and there is no connection to hardware, windows again is less complicated than android and hence better smoothness so the best would be ignore it you wont even notice after a few days !

I'll never stop comparing android with ios.
My old galaxy s4 (FlexOs rom) was as smooth as my girlfriends iphone 5, and faster opening apps.
unfortunately wifi and bluetooth stopped working after 2 years
So, what I did?
I bought the new galaxy s6 hopping it was smoother than galaxy s4.
Everything is really faster. But scrolling is driving me crazy.
I Don't care if both ios and android are made differently and function differently and are made to please different types of customers.
I could scroll with s4 and I can't anymore with s6.
Its not true that Android never became smooth as IOS.
I switched from Nexus 5 to S6 and its a Samsung Problem. My Nexus 5 ist smooth all the Time! On Play Store and Facebook.... I compared with Iphone 6 and its really Smooth. Xperia z3 ist near on Nexus 5 smoothnes. Try it by yourself you will see.
Maybe Samsung have to ask Sony how to make the you UI smooth as Xperia UI in my Opinion.
Totally agree, it's Samsung causing the stutter.
My girlfriend has Xperia Z3 Compact and it runs smooth.
S6 stutters a great deal compared to her Z3 and especially my Nexus 5.
I still use the Nexus 5 although the S6 has a better camera, display and sound.
Stock android fully optimized for S6 (option to use Samsung camera app) is what I'm looking for, any tips?

You should try this rom with Aroma Add-on Package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-3-t3119968
It's really smooth to me, and all galaxy s6 features, like Samsung camera app. \o/
hope it helps.
