making Google Chrome a more smooth experience on SD625 - Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion

As I like to read a lot of news/tech articles on my Lenovo P2 while commuting. I always get bothered when a website has stuttering issues when loading or while scrolling.
I finally passed all my exams for this year and had time to look into what I could do to try to make chrome a more smooth experience for our device. (It works on other devices too)
I do use Chrome beta but the changes should work on Chrome stable too. I had it tested by a friend on Chrome stable already and he said he is not going back to default values because the changes do make chrome a smoother experience.
So here is what you do if you want to try it out.
Go into "chrome://flags" in chromes address bar.
And change the following values (see attachment) accordingly. Relaunch Chrome and try it out.
You might experience stuttering on website's which load multiple ads. But you know what to do with ads. Just make sure you whitelist XDA
If you don't like it. Reset to defaults and don't use it!

thank you, i will try
edit:
is there any effect on battery performance?

nope not really but if any.
it should improve it. because the rastering processing is done by the gpu now.
and the gpu uses its idle state clock cycle to process the rastering. it's not gaming so the gpu is pretty much "bored".

no it works flawless. make sure you clear your cache after changing the settings. GPU object cache is different than CPU object one.

I think I have found a fix for the multitasking! (Video inside)

Hello guys. Sorry if I come off as a noob here but I have been browsing this forum for the past couple of weeks. I have been specifically looking for a fix for the htc multitasking issues. But even with the suggestions given by users, I still could not find a fix that solved the multitasking issue. However, after much tweaking and playing with minfreemanager, sense, and task manager, I think I have found a fix (or a least a temporary fix) for the multitasking issue on the HOX. Here's a quick video I made to demonstrate this.
(dot) youtube (dot) com/watch?v=FeOZtvlK08c&feature=g-upl
As you can see in the video, I am able to scroll through multiple apps without any of them closing/restarting as they normally would have on the phone with stock settings. Although not perfect, the multitasking on the HOX has become much better, and almost perfect (at least for how I believe most users would be multitasking). I can make a phone call, go back to my web browser without the browser refreshing. However, I will warn you now, with this method, the phone will freeze up/slow down occasionally (however, I have found this to only happen when using apps that utilize a lot of memory or when browsing the youtube desktop website).
1) First you'll need to download minfreemanager (many of you reading this probably already have this installed). You can get this app in the play store. However, you'll need to have your phone rooted.
2) Download advanced task manager, find the apps (such as games, browsers, etc.) that you use consistently and put them in the ignore list. Then put autokiller on and regular kill on and set the regular kill frequency to 1 minute.
3) Go to minfreemanager and set all values to 0.
4) Reboot your phone.
5) Go back to minfreemanager and reset the values to 0 and apply those settings once again.
6) Have fun with significantly improved multitasking!
Like I said, the multitasking is not perfect, however, for most users, this improved multitasking will suit you well enough to not get you frustrated. Again, if you do not want to have to deal with occasional lag/freezing, then do not use this method. However, if you want improved multitasking, this method works.
But keep in mind that I am a noob still so if there anything that is not good with my settings, please let me know. Im not a tech genius and am only trying to improve everyone's user experience with this phone.

Out of curiosity, are you running 1.82? I've had lock-up issues using minfreemanager on 1.73, but apparently they it performs better on 1.82, so I wasn't sure if that might be the cause of your freeze-up/slowdowns.

You're definitely on to something, way better than anything I have tried so far... I did have a lock up a minute ago though, could be unrelated though... More testing to come.

I've seen other reports that just being on 1.82 and using the "Minimal" or "Default" settings in Memfreemanager is enough to significantly improve the multitasking, so this might be a bit of overkill. Still, your hard work is appreciated

+1 Did as you said except for reboot and so far all Is well. Have to see how this effects battery but the multitasking is getting better.
multitasking works much better...but the phone became so laggy when i went back to home screen...takes 1 minute to pull down the notification curtain... I have reversed it now.
Thanks for the good work nevertheless!

I put games, my web browser, and a couple other apps I don't want closed in the background while using on my ignore list. Anyone else having success worn this method.
I used the default setting on min free, it definitely seems to have improved the kill off time. My Chrome now stays open significantly longer than it used to, although it still dies faster than it did on my Atrix. A few slowdowns on 1.7, but no hard crashes yet.
Im not sure if it was due to this, but after applying this my phone froze at the lock screen and had to reboot.
Suggestion for anyone facing constant slow downs or lock ups, try using the mild setting for minfreemanager and see if that makes a difference. Currently testing with those settings.
Just use Rom Toolbox and use a preset in memory management. It requires root and it basically fixes the refreshing problem.. you can then tweak it the way you want

One more quick aid. If you're still dealing with constant slow downs or lag, download cpu tuner from google play. It's free. Use the performance setting and the phone will become much quicker.

Is chrome running like crap on your galaxy s6

mine is full of jank. Pages take forever to load even on mobile sites. if you touch before its finished loading there is a huge drop in frame rate. Flick scrolling looks terrible.
Actually a lot of google apps seem to be dropping frame rates for me. Coming from the z3c and didnt have this problem.
Yes, the Google Apps seem to be particularly bad for some reason. I'm glad someone else is noticing this. I was playing with my wife's Nexus 5 earlier and while not as snappy, it's definitely a lot smooth than the S6.
Search the Play store for "Chrome Samsung" and download the support library.
Haha, wtf! Thanks for the link. I've never head of this support library before. Runs better now, but not all smooth.
For me the support library fixed nothing.
It's not just you. There was even a thread on General but people started comparing with ip6 and a mod closed it (looks like just only comparisons where s6 wins are allowed). This is important and should not be silenced in order to get a fix.
My old nexus 4 scrolls perfect while my s6 do not.
Installed it
hope it will fix the problem
I had this problem. Now it is gone. How did I fix it? Rooted and using adaway. Sorry if this isn't the answer you want to hear. There is a pretty significant issue with javascript it seems.
I used the ad blocker in Javelin browser and it was also satisfactory without root. Don't really like javelin as a browser though
I just installed it and the performance in chrome seems way better, thanks!
I've found unchecking javascript under site settings in Chrome makes things a lot smoother. I know this probably isn't a solution for all but it's enough for me.
i installed ad blocker plus non rooted and used the proxy set up. runs a lot better now that its blocking the ads.
will try the support library now
the library didnt help much. loading ads seem to be the problem

Yes javascript is the problem but unchecking it breaks other things. It should be optimized not deactivated.

Just wanted to let you guys know that i've stopped using chrome and start using the default browser
its much much better super fast compared to chrome and very easy to set up/use
One thing i have no clue how to get rid of is those damm ads i think if ill find a way to block those apps the default browser would be a beast
So if you have any idea please let me know.

HELP: Browser keeps defaulting to Chrome on Funtouch 9

I've changed my main browser from Opera to Kiwi but still retain Chrome for certain functions that I like on it but don't use it often because it's a battery killer. However, every day I have to reset my default because Chrome keeps on opening links even though it's not set as the default in settings. This morning was the most annoying as it now showed up as the default even though I didn't change anything. How and why is this happening and how can I prevent it reoccurring?

I don't want to uninstall it and I don't want to use Edge. I use Chrome for specific tasks so can't clear data. Opera is my main browser. The question is why is this happening on Funtouch 9? I don't have this problem on my P10 with emui 9.1.

You haven't done what they told you too, it's normal the problem persists....
Although you don't use it, it might be causing some problems that you cannot anticipate.
Try the following:
-> go to acessibility settings and see if you have any of them "off" that should be "on"
-> go to the battery consuption ranking and enable the browsere that you like, disabling the others
-> go to default browser and change it to what you want
-> restart the phone and see what is your default browser

-I haven't done that because he's talking nonsense.
-Accessibility isn't relevant to this issue.
-Battery consumption isn't relevant as Chrome isn't there since I seldom use it.
-Default browser is set to Opera both within Opera and the phone menu but Chrome somehow changes to the default on its own.
I don't have this problem on any of my other devices. It can only be a bug with Funtouch.

If you work in the area you understand that sometimes unrelated pieces cause bugs and software problems that you can't anticipate...we are just trying to rule those out
Accessibility might be relevant if you have some app that has the permissions to change default launchers (such as NovaLauncher, etc) and might be able to re-default your browser app. Check it
Every app is on the background power saver definition until you choose otherwise. Just go there and check Opera and uncheck Chrome, try it ffs...
if you want some help don't just post reasons not to try it....try it and then report the results so we can help you further...if you knew the stupidities that I had to do in my NEX to get some softwares going wright (Button remapers, cursor controls, automate,...) you wouldn't be arguing that "that is stupid or unrelated"

I'll answer your last statement first.
-I'm using the international version so any hoops you jumped through on your Chinese version don't really apply to my phone.
-Chrome isn't in my background power saver since it's regarded as a system app. I've forced stoppand cleared data on it and stopped auto updates but it still rears it's head again.
- None of my current accessibility settings can do this, so that's ruled out.
I have most of my devices set up identically and have used similar setups on all my phones ranging from Asus to ZTE (A-Z), I've used a lot of phones with my default browser being Opera mostly. This started after the Pie update.
Whilst I appreciate the help, the other guy told me to uninstall Chrome when I explicitly said I don't want to get rid of it. So yeah, he was way off the mark.
Well I think I've found a workaround but it's not really a solution. I've kept Opera locked in recent apps and it defaults there now. This is despite Chrome still showing up as the default on it's own. Very strange behavior.
Thanks for the input but if anyone has a solution or explanation it would be much appreciated.

I think your problem is specific to your device, I have been using Opera as my default browser since few days and it's still my default browser and I let chrome auto update and also use it regularly but it does not effect Opera.

Question Scrolling Lag Test --> Found the perfect example, need testers:

To preface, I have the S22 Ultra 256Gb (Snapdragon) 12Gb of RAM, running the latest firmware. This is not an Exynos only issue, or an 8Gb RAM only issue, it's an EVERYONE issue.
Opening the link below in a browser doesn't show any lag. You need the official Reddit app from the PlayStore to test this unfortunately but it's the perfect example to demonstrate the massive scrolling lag that occurs with some apps.
Large Twitter timelines and some Reddit posts still have very clear scrolling lag, others I am sure notice it elsewhere. If Samsung can resolve this particular issue, I believe the majority of scrolling lag issues people face will also be solved.
From what I can see, many apps use a different rendering method? It's the number of large images that possibly cause the scrolling lag. So, a better method for how the phone loads or renders images is needed to solve this problem with whatever these apps continue to use.
Open this thread below in the OFFICIAL Reddit app and scroll through the main thread at normal scrolling speed, then go back to the top and scroll faster, then test scrolling slowly (the comments under the main thread do not lag).
PLEASE report back if you notice the scrolling lag, and more importantly if someone doesn't notice it with their phone:

I literally said that in the post. Do not test using browsers (because they clearly have different levels of optimizations to save power/data, etc that result in images not loading in their highest qualities while scrolling).
Also how is that not a problem if for a few years now (on multiple high-end Android devices) we've had extremely popular apps, not ones made by small time developers, use rendering methods that are both unoptimized on the APP side and clearly on Android side too (since these issues only began around the time of Android 10 and continued to get worse with time and future iterations).
If apps continue to use that subpar rendering methods or not optimize for scrolling fluidity, and these are apps that are amongst the most popular, then perhaps Samsung/ Other Android manufacturers / Google need to start optimizing on their end.
Because at the end of the day, the user experience here is being affected.

Same applies for the Twitter app too sadly. In fact, it's worse, as 90% of Reddit threads don't have that many photos to lag. But Twitter depending on who one follows, a timeline could be filled with images and scroll stutter.
For reference, both these apps ran smoother on my Pixel 2 XL with zero lag issues by the way despite loading the same high-quality images during scroll.

Images not loading for you, look at the example below, which is how it should look and why the lag is caused. Same applies with Twitter scrolling and when lots of high-res images are in the timeline. It's very smooth when it's mostly text, or low-res images. Then it lags and stutters when high-res images start coming up.
Samsung/Google/Android have to start optimizing for when high-resolution image rendering or how it's done.

Not luck, your one is how it should look, with the high-resolution images. Which is what causes severe scrolling lag.

What I want to know more importantly is if there is ANYONE who is loading the official app with the images like the above and not having any lag/stutter.
Maybe people with custom ROMS or kernels can please test and let us know if it's the same for them?

If that's true. Samsung really has to fix this horrible experience in apps.
By the way, as I've already stated. This has nothing to do with Exy vs Snapdragon.
I have a Snapdragon model with 256Gb storage and 12Gb ram and it's still happening.
I have a S22u SD 12/256 model, have never had any scrolling/studdering issues but keep seeing posts about it. I'm curious as to what setting your graphics driver is under Developer Options in setting? Looks like you can change that option for individual applications.
Apologies in advance if this has been already thrashed out...

I have a S22u SD 12/256 model, have never had any scrolling/studdering issues but keep seeing posts about it. I'm curious as to what setting your graphics driver is under Developer Options in setting? Looks like you can change that option for individual applications.

I am very curious by this, so please do come back and let us know. No offence taken by the way.
I believe you can login to Reddit as anonymous or use it without creating an account at all. Can you please download it from the PlayStore, then come and open the reddit thread in original post at the top and test it scrolling? Check the video by @vlubosh above.
Developer settings on/off do not impact it, animation on/off does not impact it, graphics driver settings under developer setting on/off do not change it. Forcing GPU rendering under developer settings does not impact it. Doing tweaks to the build.prop do not impact it either.
The stutter lag has been there the whole time for me, with every firmware update too.
You could get lucky and in the apps you use you'll never notice it. But given for example Twitter and Reddit are my primary uses with the phone outside my work, then my entire experience, outside of amazing camera, has been horrible with this phone.

I first clicked on your link in the original post above which displayed the reddit web pages and everything scrolled smoothly. Tried it with 120 and then 60 hz refresh and no lag.
I then installed the reddit app and clicked on your link above and was able to get it displayed in the app. Didn't matter if I had 120 or 60hz screen refresh or how I had the setting for the graphics driver set, never had any lag.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Were the images loaded for you in the app? Like the video by @vlubosh or does it look like the video posted by @profi_fahrer
What firmware are you currently running?
It loads the images like @vlubosh with the images. Se attachment for version info.

Question Flickery / non working websites in QHD

Is anyone else having issues with websites when using QHD+? It's been driving me crazy that browsing was nigh on impossible. Changed it down to FHD+ and everything seems a lot better. Same in Edge, Chrome and Brave so I assume some Chromium bug. Ad blocking on/off doesn't seem to matter.
Example of site that just goes blank when I scroll: https://uk.mous.co/products/limitle...ack-leather-phone-case?variant=40847410331705
Edit: Whoops, apparently I forgot that I already had 1080p selected and confirm the same behavior at 1440p.
Original:
No problems on that site here. Try rebooting? This is in Chrome. I haven't changed any defaults, so I assume I'm browsing in QHD:
Your browser is not able to display this video.
Rebooting doesn't seem to fix it. Even cleared webview cache/data. Here's what it looks like for me.

I have same Bug on beta p7p, Switching to 1080p, no issue
Whoops, apparently I forgot that I already had 1080p selected and confirm the same behavior at 1440p. Sorry about that.
Thanks for confirming! Guess I'm staying in FHD+ for now then. Hopefully Google can fix it soon enough.

No issue on Chrome Dev, so it seems it has already been fixed and will make it's way down the channels.

I don't know what to say, I get the flickering on Chrome Stable but when using Chrome Dev there is none.
I am on QPR1 Beta 3 and I'm not using any flags.
