How To Guide FIX for 90% of the Stutters and Scrolling Lag - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

I have had this phone since April and it has been a stuttering mess for me with a lot of popular apps, especially social media apps like Twitter. So, I was glad when I stumbled on a solution; Samsung apps that are region locked, for example both of these are not available in Australia:
Try to find these apps in the Galaxy Store first, as they might be available in your region:
First, download and install the latest Samsung Good Guardians app, if you downloaded this through the Galaxy Store, you can download all other apps suggested below from within the Good Guardians app, otherwise grab the latest APK's from below:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/galaxy-labs/
Then:
2. Download and install the latest Samsung Galaxy App Booster
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/app-booster/
Run Good Guardians, and through that app, you run the Galaxy App Booster.
Using Galaxy App Booster, click on OPTIMIZE NOW and wait for it to complete the process.
Run this "Optimize Now" feature once a week. Enjoy.
That's it, that fixed most of my stutters when nothing else and no other optimizations done much these last few months.
There still remains a little bit of stutter, but nowhere near as bad as before.
EXTRA Information:
3. I personally use Samsung Thermal Guardian too:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-thermal-guardian/
Using Thermal Guardian, I increase the Thermal Threshold to maximum (click the + sign a couple of times). This allows the CPU to run at hotter temperatures, however, I also use Additional Settings to "Limit CPU Boosting when Heating", this prevents the CPU from over-heating. What I have found, is that these two combined allow the CPU to run between 70% and 90% power, giving an overall more fluid performance, without over-heating.
4. If you have used the information in #3, then I also set Processing Speed to Maximum, when combined with Limited Boosting, it provides a better overall experience. To activate Maximum Processing Speed, go to device Settings, then "Battery and Device Care", then "Battery", then "More battery settings", then "Processing Speed", then set to "Maximum".

Great tutorial, maybe that's why my phone is so smooth since I bought it.
I would just add the recommendation to run the Galaxy App Booster after each firmware update being it via OTA or flashed directly or at least once every 1 or 2 weeks (though, I didnt find the need for it since I'm on beta). This is also the recommendation from the app itself for those that have it installed.

THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE FLUENCY THANK YOU

I did all the steps for now, worked without any problems. I will respond again in some days about battery usage / overall performance (I'm on Android 13 Beta 1)

Edited main post to include information about the Galaxy Store.
100% if they are available in your region, better to download them directly through the Galaxy Store.

Didnt know the Thermal Guardian app existed. Looking forward to giving this a try for increased performance.

Same here. I noticed improvement with Twitter.

This is something that Samsung needs to fix because other OEMs have issued patches to fix app lag. Example, Nothing patched the issue with scroll lag on twitter in their recent update and now it's literally buttery smooth. Not sure what they did to fix it, but Samsung should take note.

Has nothing to do with the app if another phone OEM was able to patch it though, does it? It means there's something in the OS causing it to occur. I have no idea what that is, but it seems clear to me they need to do something to fix the lag and stuttering.
After the August patch it seems to be a bit better but not as good as on my Nothing phone after their recent update. Buttery smooth and on a much more 'inferior' SOC.

The only app I get lag and stuttering is Twitter. Even then it is minor.

I thought I would give this a try and it has Made Samsung Internet horrible. It freezes and stops responding constantly now.

Install free version of Galaxy MaxHz app > open it with internet enabled to download latest profiles > Default refresh rates > 60 - 120 Hz.
That trick defeated all lags, microfreezes and stuttering on my S22 (Exynos).
FYI. As I recall correctly, you need to open Galaxy Max Hz app after every reboot to apply settings.

regrets of buying this phone because of the lag!

this phone with these specs lags! as hell even though i dont have much files or games and apps installed only used 3 gbs from th 64 or th 50 gb left scrolling up and down is s*** in this phone for real why 3gb ram device and with the latest exynos prosseccor from samsung has these issues
i cant describe my disappointment from this device
i love everything on this device but the lag is just uuuugghhh!Q!!!#!!!!!
do you know something that can fixes the lag
tried everything here and other android sites nothing worked!
Never faced a lag as yet on my S6. Try a factory reset and set the phone up as a new device without logging into google and samsung. Try not to sync app data from google maybe that will help.
Scrolling in chrome does kind of suck, try other browsers like stock, dolphin or opera
Adaway solved the scrolling lag in chrome for me

The only time I see lag is when switching apps via multitask, and even then it is not a huge deal. No, it shouldn't have any lag with these specs, but no phone is perfect.
If you have literally "tried everything here and other android sites nothing worked" then sell it now while you can get the most money for it, because it will never be completely lag-free and it obviously keeps you from enjoying the phone.

Force 2d gpu rendering helps to make it less worse. But I know what you are talking about. Those who deny it, are shy to admit it

Browsers lag big time. I still have my s5 and it is super smooth compared to my s6. hopefully it will be fixed.
Tried chrome, stock browser and opera. They all stutter/lag when scrolling whereas the s5 is fast as you like.
EDIT: force GPU rendering does indeed seem to help.
EDIT 2: this thread ( http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...owser-chrome-facebook-twitter-play-store.html )
suggests that JavaScript is the issue. Turning JavaScript off in chrome does also seem to help a lot!
Perhaps the people who don't see the lag are using Ad blockers which stops it loading JavaScript?

Never noticed any lag and do use AdAway to block ads... never even really tried it without it.
I turned Javascript back on and installed adaway and its still smooth.
Think we've found the culprit!
Maybe it's a bug with JavaScript engine?
This is sunpider JavaScript test running on 5.1.1

there is sometimes a bit of lag which i don't mind...but what's really annoy me is the stutter....in the LOG list....try to scroll...you will see it stutter....i was hoping not to run into these but it did happen...sadly
Anything that uses Android System WebView will lag. Anything that uses Javascript will lag. Chrome lags on everything, including Nexus devices.
Forcing GPU rendering helps reduce redraws.
Turning off all window & transition animations (in dev options) removes some eye candy, but those animations just get in the way of doing stuff imo.
A 3rd party launcher like Nova Launcher will make a *huge* difference in your daily usage & satisfaction with the phone.
I have tried all methods. But, I notice scrolling lag only in some of the Google Apps such as play store and play newsstand.
Also, I have got lollipop update for my galaxy note pro 12.2 tablet, which is super fast and lag free compared to s6.
I am hoping some optimization update for Google Apps with respect to s6.

Welcome to android...? Buttery smooth only exists on iOS. However, the s6 line is by far the best when it comes to being snappy.

Can we know more about how it optimizes Kernel and Android OS also would b better if you could tell us if it's open source.
This app still can be patched

No...it's not open source. He doesn't want to share his methods of 'machine learning' IIRC. I bought n tried v6.0.

Bump of this thread. Updated docs & info. Pushed v9.2 free version.
I'm using 9.2.4 and I've noticed one bug which might or might not be of pure visual nature. Anyway when I select an app to be preloaded, upon next reboot this app is replaced with the one listed just above it...
Hello I've bought and use the app for some time, overall it's pretty good. However I want to know more in details about some of the AI function/options that's not really explained everywhere in more detail (afaik), some clarification would be great
1. the difference between normal and alternate doze (how they works and stuff)
2. toggle bg apps kill (#killbgapps / #dontkillbgapps), what's this? what's the default config for fresh fde and what will it affect?
Hello.
I'm using Poco F1 , with Official corvus os and greenify and no other mods and stock kernel. I installed the free version and now my charging speed is way to slow after the installation.
While charging I switched of the phone, only to see the phone automatically trying to boot and then showing the charging logo, after seeing it, I disconnected the charger and booted into system.
Please help op if you could fix the charging issue, I would really love to buy it.

Will check that. Actually preload is dropped after reboot, so it should be enabled manually after every reboot. Thanks.

1. In first case used direct force deep doze mode. On some heavy modified systems like MIUI this causes various issues, so i came out with another method - dumpsys deviceidle step x3 times - this avoids direct force doze but makes it skip idle wait, motion sensor check steps & go directly to light doze - this way it doesn't conflict with nothing, but may not work as well as expected. Simply - use alternatedoze only if you have troubles with normal doze.
2. #killbgapps executes only once you type it - it doesn't do it automatically. Issued 'am kill-all' commad which is nearly same as you'd clear all your recents, while cached data is still in ram.

Hi, maybe try to change kernel - in last FDE versions I removed anything that can be related to charging. If you will buy pro version, you can get refund if things 'll go wrong & you want to uninstall it. Thanks.
Seems working
I think i see some differences
Android 10 keeps applying restrictions for the app not use battery in background, after every reboot of the system, should I worry about that? Also, can I leave fde in that "optimized" list in settings/battery management?
Fde is amazing , thanks!

Question Keyboard locking up

I'm having an issue on my a52 where the keyboard is hanging a lot. I installed g- keyboard and it's a bit better but also hangs.
Anyone else have this issue and know of a fix?
Clear the system cache.
System instability and lagging are a bad signs... the only warnings you may get before a crash.
Make sure your data is backed up.
Find the root cause, suspect malware as a possibility as well.
If you did an OS upgrade a factory reset is needed.
Thank you for the reply.
I just received the phone yesterday and went through setup. I did check for updates and there was an update available so I ran it which brought the phone up to the latest June security patch. This morning after reading your message I did a factory reset to see if that would help but the keyboard still hangs. It's like it just can't keep up with typing or something? Everything else seems to work perfectly fine it's just typing on the keyboard that seems to hang?
"System instability and lagging are a bad signs"
Do you mean to say that it's possibly defective?
I have the 8GB / 256GB model.
If I switch between Google keyboard and Samsung Keyboard it will work ok for a little bit but them it starts hanging again. Very strange behavior.
Sure would suck to have to send it back
This a new phone?
Is there carrier bloatware present?
New to me, open box, unlocked SM-A525F/DS. Doesn't appear to have carrier bloatware.
I don't know... my first inclination be to return it.
Check for updates including the Samsung Galaxy store and Playstore. Make sure it's not a 3rd party app causing it.
My S4+ do that crap sometimes and I think was internet connection related.
The native keyboard is one of the best, it's the only one I use.
Yeah, I would think that the native Samsung keyboard app would work flawlessly but for some reason it hangs much more than the G-Keyboard.
Like I said I did a factory reset it and only loaded a new google account so I could test it out fresh and it is still doing it. It doesn't do it when I first open the phone but then after using it a bit the keyboard hanging issue starts to happen.
When I google the problem I only came across someone having the issue on a A51
the software update page says that it is up to date: Current version : A525FXXS2AUE2 / A525FOJM2AUE1 / A525XXS2AUE2
Security patch evel: June 1, 2021
Crap... that sucks. It maybe a mobo issue or a corrupted flash. I say return it if you can.
Almost sounds like a memory leak... is the ram usage steadily climbing?
So I got back from a dentist appointment and had left the A52 at home and I go to test the Samsung and Google keyboards and now they are working perfectly fine, smooth as butter, and I can't make it hang/freeze anymore?!?!?!
New to Samsung, coming from my PH-1 with custom ROM.
Where would I check that ram usage?
Yay!
Power management can cause erratic device behavior, I never use it.
Activate Developer options. Also you can see ram usage in Samsung Device Care.
Interesting, I do have power management on, I will keep that in mind if it starts acting up again.
I now have developer options on and I checked Device care:

You need to weed out misbehaving apps one by one on a case by case basis.
3rd party apps that demand to run at startup deserve special attention.
Some apps like Brave browser continue to run in the background even after you close them. I finally ended up firewall blocking it when not in use to stop this behavior... nothing else worked.
Firewall blocking apps that don't need internet access also helps to move things along.
I do not have Brave browser on my A52? Was it a pre-installed app on yours that you can't uninstall?

Just an example. I keep it because of it's ad blocking ability plus no malware has ever breached it.
ok. Well it looks like power saving mode was already off. it must have reset to off when I did the factory reset. Under more battery settings there is a Adaptive battery setting which is on? Would this effect it?

Adaptive battery, kill it. That could induce this kind of behavior. Android manages its self well without it. Simply close out apps when done with them. This works well with most apps except for poorly coded ones like Brave
Go to running apps in Developer options to view some of what's eating up the house.
Sometimes cache apps like Brave are still running in the background even though it's not shown as a current running service. Killing it off the cache list will however shut it down.
I found it's easier to just close Brave then firewall block it until needed again
Hey, it could be worse... it could be an iphone
Thanks for you help! I just killed Adaptive battery. I found "Running services" , Im guessing it is what you mention? I do see a lot there: KLMS Agent, Video call effects, Samsung Pass, SmartThings, Bixby Voice, etc..... Samsung Keyboard and One Ui Home seem to be using the most memory.
Yay
Yeah a lot junk. I use Package Disabler and Karma Firewall as well as settings to knock it down.
Home - Package Disabler
The only NON-root solution that let’s you disable any unwanted packages that come pre-installed / installed with your phone / tablet.
www.packagedisabler.com
Typically those apps use a lot of ram but not much battery or CPU cycles.
Holy cow thats a lot, I have very few running compared to yours!
Adaptive battery seems to have been slowing the phone down as everything now is much more snappy.

General Game Booster settings comparison

Unrooted. Running background apps cleaned, motion smoothness set to adaptive, screen resolution set to WQHD+ 3088 x 1440.
Experimental setting physically felt like it got much hotter than the Performance setting test, which I'm assuming is why it scored the lowest on the 3DMARK test. I'm seeing posts and youtubers saying if we want the best gaming performance, we should go with the experimental setting option but is anyone else getting comparisons like this?

Open Game Launcher, tap on the 3 bars on the bottom right, then click Game Booster. You will see the screen above your post. Go to Labs if you want to turn GOS off.
I have the option to turn GOS off - " Alternate game performance management" . I was just wondering about the option OP had with "Game Optimization: Performance " as I don't have that option.

I have the option to turn GOS off - " Alternate game performance management" . I was just wondering about the option OP had with "Game Optimization: Performance " as I don't have that option.

You will only see that option with GOS turned ON. Alternate game performance managed needs to be unchecked for the performance option to be available.

I do not see the game optimization option with the alternate performance on or off. US Unlocked.
Edit: Figured it out. With Game Plugins installed, you will not see that option.
Edit 2: Per Kris's post, you can have game plugins installed. Just uninstall game booster plus and the optimization menu will show. Good find Kris.
On performance. I got some apps open this is my daily driver that was copyed over from my note 20 ultra. That was copyed from my note 10 plus that was copyed from my note 9.

That's not true. I had Game Plugins installed and was still able to see the option. It's actually Game Booster Plus that disables the option. Game Booster Plus is a plugin within Game Plugins where you can customize your resolution and frame rate.
If you have Game Plugins and Game Booster Plus installed, you will not see the "Performance" option or be able to choose anything for game optimization.
Right now I have Game Plugins and Game Booster Plus uninstalled, and when I uncheck "alternate game performance management" I can then choose performance option in the previous page.
In my experience, playing Call of Duty Mobile, it runs better with "alternate game performance management" checked, meaning GOS is off. This does cause a bit of heating.
Am i doing something wrong here? Why is my score so low? That i know of all my settings are set up like everyone else on here.
Apologies for not clarifying. Game Optimization Service (GOS) was recently replaced with Game Booster Settings after an update was released after the GOS controversy.
If you have the latest update, open settings, type Game Booster Settings, and then you'll find Game Optimization. There are 3 modes that replaces GOS. Performance, Standard, and Battery Saver. Additionally, under the Labs setting, they included an "experimental" feature called Alternate Game Performance Management. This setting was intended to be the resolution to the GOS controversy.
Essentially, it is suppose to disable game performance settings to a degree, which, when previously apart of GOS, was massively throttling game and app performance to avoid an overheating issue that is inherent in the S21 and 22 lines.
It was assumed by many that you would get the most performance using the Alternate experimental mode as it was assumed to disable throttling the most, but also may cause more heating issues. But when I tested with 3DMark, Performance mode and Standard mode surpassed the Alternate mode by quite a bit. During the Alternate mode test, my phone did heat up much more than the other two tests, which I wonder is what caused the performance hit.
I was looking to verify that here if I could see other comparisons.

Which Game Optimization option have you selected? Or is this with the Alternate mode where the game Optimization settings are disabled?
In other Words, it's no longer necessary to disable GOS to get the full Performance on my Device?

This was with performance, i tried with gos off and was around the same.
Just did this after a full charge and restart... Nowhere near 9000.

Hmm, maybe look at killing some of the background running apps and increase your virtual RAM to 8G?

How To Guide ***CLOSED*** Samsung: How to KEEP apps in the BACKGROUND!

Hey guys,
in case you are not happy with the default One UI apps background management, you can check this solution. In a nutshell, there is a Memory Guardian module part of Good Guardians, that allows the user to switch from default to the so called "quick switching mode" that somehow reduces the aggressive background app killing, i.e. app refresh.
Moderator Edit: YouTube link removed due to violation of XDA external links policy.
I have tested this with following apps:
- Spotify
- Mixcloud
- Instagram
- Snapchat
- Tiktok
- Youtube
Some other users tested this with Waze and other apps and it seems that it works.
What is the idea? Well imagine you are browsing through insta and you find a nice post that you d like to check, but then something else pops up and you switch to another app. Then after you are back to your app (in this case insta) One UI would "refresh" the app, meaning that it will reload it, and you will lose your "last state", i.e. imagine refreshing the app or close/opening it.

It is also supposed to work with some of the heavy games, test it and let me know if you apps refresh is a bit better (i.e. not refreshed so much) or ... no difference at all.
I have tested this on my S22U with 12G of RAM but I guess it should have a better impact for 8 GB and lower RAM configs.
Appreciate the find!
I have 8gb version and apps are staying open much better now

Nice to hear that! Can you let us know which apps did you test? Also - how much of VRAM (Virtual RAM) do you use?
I makes a bit of difference on my 12GB version so I assumed that it would be even better/bigger impact on 8GB and less.
Strangely enough this function is not very popular, was almost not able to find much info around. The whole Good Guardians tools are widely underestimated and they pack a few good tricks.
Thermal Guardian for example can let you adjust the thermal threshold of your phone, so it can potentially tolerate a bit more heat where battery life is exchanged for better peak performance and hopefully also sustained.

il try this thanks, HTRACK is always closing after 5 or more apps overtake it in the que

So...I just sort of excluded all apps for the most part to test. They stay in ram longer but still hit a point where they refresh. Using 8gb vram but haven't seen ram usage above 6gb or so yet

Can HTRACK be further tweaked, perhaps from dev options? I remember seeing something for background processes, like a limitation factor setting.

Yep, it`s not a silver bullet, but still some positive impact.

Yeah there is but only upto 4 processes I sometimes have many any more apps open at once, anyway I'm trying it now and here are some screens if you wanna attach to op and il delete from this post once you add them
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
update, i must say this app so far has seemed to keep my HTTrack running great in the background, it ha certainly made a difference, i did have it set "unrestricted" in the app settings/battery setting before and that didnt help, this app now works even with the app power settings set to "optimised"
