Lag and slow operation, HELP. (Video included) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

Last night i started noticing that my phone exchange started getting laggy and slow. And right now I tried to upload a picture to Facebook and it said "operation could not be completed due to low memory".
Down is a video showing the behavior. Any help will be greatly appreciated. BTW, I'm using package disabler, I tried enabling all disabled apps. But still acting the same. Even after a cache clear and reboot several times.

First things first people gonna tell ya when u factory reset does it still happen? I see you love Google and the apps are a huge ram sucker. What type of ram do you have left when you are facing these issues. What rom what kernel?
I.D.F.W.Y.

Already fixed it with a factory reset. All stock. Just Package disabler. And the ram was at a little over 65%, pretty normal.

Nexus 5 consistently having apps crash

Lately my Nexus 5 has been having some issues. I first started noticing this when I'd get artifacts popping up while on chrome. Then during reboot, play services would crash, and sometimes the launcher would refuse to start. Then other apps like Hangouts would refuse to let me view messages without a app crash. Even 3rd party apps have crashed on me.
I've done a full wipe and put stock 4.4.2, three different times now and within a day I get the same symptoms all over again.
This has been going on for over a week, I have absolutely no idea what to do now.
Any ideas? Is perhaps the storage bad? Any way to test it? Or what should I do.
Thanks
Flash clean stock and don't install a single app for those few days and see what happens.
If nothing, install just a few apps at a time per day. If it suddenly starts....you'll know its one of the few apps you just installed.
That's all I got. Lol

Are you flashing a custom kernel with it? Are you undervolting at all, running art? I specifically ask for undervolting, cause that will cause things to crash | reboot.
No, no custom kernel. Everything I got was from googles factory image site. https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/hammerhead-kot49h-factory-02006b99.tgz
And I've never undervolted before. I could root and perhaps increase the clock speed. Also not running ART. I did a few months ago, but switched back.

Well aside from rooting, best you can do is force stop all those apps, particularly the ones that are crashing specifically, then clear those caches from the menu. After you've done all your problem apps, reboot.
If he did a full wipe and installed a fresh stock image....caches aren't the issue. Its probably one app wreaking havoc. Lol

Phone gets laggy everyday

Hi everyone,
My phone gates very laggy on daily basis. Something I never had on my Nexus 4. Not sure if this is ROM or Kernel related or something else completely. My RAM is not maxed out when this happens, and I really don't know how to troubleshoot/resolve this.
So far I tried I various Kernels, currently on bluspark. I always only used Chroma ROMs, so I'm not sure if I would get this behavior with other roms. I tried various schedulers and Read ahead buffer sizes.
Any advice/help would be appreciated.
Maybe flash back to stock MM for a couple of days to see what happens?

Yeah, was trying to avoid that since getting everything back takes some time even with google restore and titanium. I went ahead and flashed XtraFactory rom (close enough to stock I guess) and really wanted display manager to work so I flashed Blu_sprk Kernel. Phone already got laggy and eventually crashed... I'll set Governor to Ondemand and scheduler to CFQ (I believe that's stock settings) and see what happens....
If you have already constantly reflashed and nothing works fine try to go nuclear:
Reinstall firmware via adb or a toolkit, that fixed a lot of issues for me.
If you dont want to
I recommend you to free out RAM/Memory and Optimize the Database
try to use SD Maid, Go to settings > Quickaccess and enable duplicates
Settings > App Corpses and then check all
now run the quick access.. once everything is cleaned down reboot the device and see if it helped.
If nothing significant happened, factory reset but again if nothing happens i suggest you go nuclear and wipe everything out by reflashing firmware.
It's never laggy even after 2 years of everyday use.

Thanks for telling me about sd maid. Pretty cool app. Ended up buying full version last night.

It's ALWAYS laggy. Just a matter of perspective. The amount of power these phones have, I don't understand how we still have 5 skipped frames in every animation.

It cleaned up over 2gigs... Performance... Not sure. I changed ROM, kernel settings, and did the sd maid all within couple hours. Phone runs great. If anything, sd maid definitely helped in cleaning up unneeded files.

Touch Screen Not Working

I had weird problems with Moto G3 touch screen.
1. Touch screen hangs when I restart phone and immediately swipe for notifications.
2. Sometimes home buttons are not working.
3. Sometimes whole touch screen doesn't work. Lock and unlock solves issue.
4. This is really weird. When home button is not working. I press and hold for a moment. Google App starts and all 3 buttons start working.
5. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without swiping.
I don't understand. I tried to debug.. It seems software issue not hardware issue. Please help.
Sounds like a lag problem... memory full or runaway app... I would first do a cache wipe, then check memory usage and make sure it isn't almost full, then look at storage because I have seen phones do this when internal storage is very limited.
Thanks for reply. One more problem added

I have done factory reset twice. I always keep enough space in phone. I cleanup everyday. Memory issue can never be problem for me. I dont keep unnecessary data. Now i have observed one more problem. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without doing anything.

Hmm... the whole notification bar is flashing at regular intervals? This really sounds like a software issue... Are you stock?
Honestly, at this point you need to absolutely verify hardware or software... I would factory default, and skip everything in setup, do not add Google account (important!) or restore anything, except login to WiFi. Does it still do it? If so, it is probably hardware and you need to RMA it to Moto, if it is OK then it's a software issue in one of your apps.
Any screen protector or case? Sometimes they are known to do weird things on this device, especially tempered glass ones.
One More Time Factory Reset

Thanks for quick reply. I agree with you. It's software issue. It works fine in safe mode. Actual hardware is fine. May be I can try factory reset one more time without adding google account. Okay. I will get back to you once I do reset. Thnx buddy.

Hi.. It's working smoothly without any problem. I haven't added Google account. Now what next? Should I debug which App is causing problem because I can't survive without Google account. I have to add.

Add the Google account but don't restore apps... Setup all the Google services and test, if it's OK then start adding apps a few at a time. If it starts acting up its a system settings issue, factory reset and add Google account but don't restore any services at all and continue to setup like a new device.

Phone slow or even freezing most of the time

I've been trying to diagnose this issue for a long time now, but haven't got any closer to a conclusion.
As the title says, my problem is that the phone is a lot of the time very slow in simple tasks like launching an app or performing a certain activity. I also find it freezing a lot, and it's really annoying, almost unusable.
Sometimes, the UI is very responsive and smooth, but most of the time it's the complete opposite. I started to notice this with Facebook's Messenger app, but I found that it's not the actual cause.
So I analyzed the CPU and RAM, both of which seem to not be the issue. And then I decided to test the Disk R/W speeds, and found that doing even very simple tasks or even not doing anything at all gets the disk read speeds to 100%. That's the most logical explanation to this that I could get to.
I did factory reset, clean flashed a new ROM, and all that aswell.
Does anyone have this problem and is there a solution?
Theres really not much to do. The phone is getting older and 2gb of ram(assuming you have 2gb model) is not the best in 2017. The real problem is unoptimized apps like facebook,mesenger,snapchat... The fix would be to go back to miui because it never keeps apps running in the background. I do to myself encounter this problem with any AOSP based rom. You can try clearing cache and dalvik.

Does LOS' option in developer options to not keep any app running in background work in the same way? Do push notifications function then?

You can try, never tried it myself. Probably same as miui and you probably will lose notifications, thats whats good about miui, it starts app every so to get notifications.

Question OneUI crashes

Does anyone else have crashes for oneUI ? Fort me it happens like twice a week on my exynos model.
I'm so disappointed with this phone to be honest. It's stutters now and than and to many crashes in various apps.
I'm assuming must of it is due to Samsung chip.
I have also whacked for nightly restart even thought it's stupid i think.
Did this happen from day one?
If not it's likely an app, update or settings issue.
Still that's pretty unstable... it could be a hardware issue.

try factory reset with disabling of trashy preinstalled apps (disabled 144 on mine ), then install your apps (not restore)
adb app control
It wasn't happened on mine ( SD variant). Try to factory reset the phone, download and re-install all of your app instead of restore them (even with the phone setting). It may help to solve issues
I appreciate the tips but seriously guys, factory reset and redownload of this many apps i have is like a weeks work! I only download the stuff i use (and 99% payed apps as i hate ads). Not to mention i might loose some data thanks to how Android save data. This is not 2010. I hope modern phones are more stable then that.
If this was iPhone then i could simply restore easy but with Android its not as simple.
If there is no other way i wait for some more samsung firmware updates.
It has not happened this week so lets see.
I notice some specific apps are specially bad like LinkedIn hangs allot. Tapatalk wont work even with this forum and gives error. Maybe some of these apps make the launcher go nuts....
Try using a different launcher, to see if that stops the crashing

No thank you. I like Nova but i really like to use stock now so i get all my folders and settings saved properly
But i might go to Nova again. It has so much great tweaking...
