I have a strange problem. My TG01 is very laggy in certain application. I cant use them, bacause scrolling is very choppy in them. So far i discovered that these are:
- parlingo contacts scrolling
- scroling content of email message
- scrolling in pocket informant
- scrolling in ptasks
- scrolling in spb mobile shell in star menu when using sense theme and changing desktops
I dont understand how is it possible that device with such a fast processor can behave like this. My another observation is that some of these issues sometimes disappear - I mean parlingo and email.
I tried diffirent roms and change some settings in registy (font cache) with no luck.
Do You have these problems too? Pliz help
Anyone? I recently tried throttle launcher and without hwarware acc i get 5-10 fps and with acceleration 15-20. It is unusable. I bought device with 1Ghz processor bacuase i wanted it to be fast!
Maybe power saving options?
SD card is slow?
Install programs to main memory instead.
Install Chain Fire 3D drivers.
Free up memory using Clean Ram program.
A list of things you can try.
Power saving settings are OK - best performance
Programs are installed to main memory but i do not think that this lag can be caused by slow sd card.
I had chainfire3d and clean ram but with no help.
Maybe everyone have this issues , but only I see them?

you arent the only one! i suffer these problems as well on the email, i find it very annoying. none of those solutions provide a fix, anyone help?
I also noticed that this strange behaviour sometimes disappears and it runs quite smooth then. It runs smooth in email app for some time after soft reset.
I tried to run some benchmarks (2dmark) and i found that my results are 4-5 times lower than some another user of TG01 posting his results. But this results may not be connected to the lag I am seeing in other applications.

yes, i notced this to after some soft resets. i only stared noticing these problems after i install htc sense. i don't really face the email problem that much any more, i use the htc email tab reader
still it would be nice to get a fix...
Hello friends, sorry I'm a big noob and dont know anything, I have a toshiba folio 100, recently purchased, and I managed to install the ICS 4, the latest version that is a tutorial on this same site, and is working well and is spectacular , but it happens to me that in some applications like GMAIL, Ice Age, the screen is shaking and I have to shut down the application, someone can help me change the screen resolution, so that does not happen again.
Thanks to All
I don't exactly understand the problem. Do the applications crash?
What do you mean when you say "the screen is shaking"? Maybe you're talking about the known bug when coming back from suspend?
Hi my friend,
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, it is exactly what I mean, the screen shacke, but it already happened in all the situation before and after being suspended.
Do you have any idea about what I can do to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
With the stock rom, did you had the same problem? I'm running it with foliomod and the thing that you described never happened to me.
It's a known bug of the Alpha 5 release, resuming after suspend brings screen to that bad behaviour. Only workaround is to power-off the tablet instead of letting it suspend or suspending by power button. This is the only major bug of ICS on Folio (apart from the lack of bluetooth), I'm totally satisfied of how ICS is running on it, everything runs smooth, I'll never revert to any other 2.x rom, once you test ICS interface it's really hard to use phone like interfaces on a 10" tablet
I may be wrong, but the screen stops flickering after some seconds.

Yes it's stops. But after sleep,suspend its better to reboot, because it crashes.
I just try to avoid suspend/sleep mode and turn it off/on instead. Hope this issue gets fixed
Browsers
Using CM9 A5 ROM. Some browsers Opera, Dolphin, Stock and Boat crashes when surfing the internet. I noticed that Opera usually not crash but folio gets SOD when writhing something. Boat and Dolphin crashes when loading site or scrolling page content fast. I don't have idea how fix this. It's not happening very often but in half hour it can be even 2 times. Any solutions?
P.S: I use original boot.img with no overlocked CPU.
Hey guys. I believe that the os21 update has a bad memory leak/background processing management(besides a kernal issue). When playing heavy 3d games like Nova 3 or Sonic, the framerates are really slow or stutter a lot until the games force-close. Well, for the past 2 days, I have not had this issue, both Nova 3 and Sonic play with no stuttering at all, and I have not experienced any more game crashes. My browser also seems much smoother. Please try the two fix options listed below, while noting that the 2nd option seems to work best with mass Efeect, and less "strict" on runnig processes than the first option:
Fix #1- What I did was push the soft reset button on the Prime (using a small paperclip), then waited for the Prime to reboot. Once it rebooted, DO NOT let the Prime load up anything, just immediately go into settings, developer options, select the kill all activities option, then for background processes, select "at most 1 process only" Delete all of your running task managers/task widgets an that's it. Now all of my games run, no crashes, and the framerates for Nova 3 and Sonic is MUCH better.
Fix# 2 - For those still having issues with Mass Effect, this alternate setting will definitely fix the problem. After soft rebooting, go into development settings, and then for background processes, select "at most 1 process only" and DO NOT select kill all processes after leaving them. This setting has been confirmed to fix the Mass Effect issue, as well as all other games while still keeping the Prime running a lot smoother.
Please try using the exact instructions that I have posted, and let me know if this works for you guys. If so, then it proves that the os21 has a memory management issue which is causing all the current issues we are having.
Also, I would like to share this post from Jaycustom, whom has also been using this method for a few days now and enjoying it more than myself lol. He ran a CPU test to test the differences before and after my fix. See his results below:
Default settings said I had about 19 user/ 29 system processes running.
Dev settings gave me 14 user/ 11 system processes running.
Default settings for system memory 600+mb used/300+ free
Dev settings for system memory 300+ used/600+ free
The memory usage was pretty much exactly reversed! So I assume this is where most, but not all, of the performance boost comes from. CPU usage was also lower, not by much though.
See the video that I made (link below)showing me using the default browser, which is now really fast and stable using this method. I also ran Mass Effect 3 and Nova 3 to show that I have no issues playing these games anymore. I used a Samsung Galaxy tab to record, so please re-frame from laughing at the quality of the vid lol! If you guys would like me to try more games/apps, please let me know.

Sorry to hear that it didnt work for you, but it seems to have resolved the issue for me entirely. I am not exeriencing any more gam crashes or white flashing screens. Are you sure that you followed the stes listed? Waiting for others to rely, but either my Prime just decided to play all my games correctly, or this is "fix" is working for me.
This is not an acceptable fix, it is only a workaround.

Yes I agree 100%, but it works. At least we can play some of our games/browse without issue until the fix comes out. Did you try it, and did it work for you?

I'll have to try this out tonight. To clarify, when you say "do not let it load up anything", do you just mean go into the settings as soon as possible and kill things? It must start running services as soon as it boots, no? I guess this just minimizes the "damage"?
Hi, I've just tried this and it doesn't seem to have had much of an effect I'm afraid.
In the last 10 mins I've still had two spontaneous browser shutdowns, plus crappy streaming video playback from sites such as bbc iplayer.
The pages seem to load a little faster and scrolling may be a touch smoother but thats about it the best I can say.
This solution works well for me. I have been doing this for some time, except I have limited the processes to three. Limiting it to one seems to improve it even better. Widgets seem also to be a drain on the resources and limiting those works well for me. Much thanks for the post.
You might also try this solution from here post #118 :

It seems to have worked for me, I've only had one reboot since. It's at least worth a try. Good luck.

yes exactly.. this is the way it worked for me. Just immediately go into setting, and select the options that i listed. This will only allow the essential programs to run. Please let me know if this works for you. Also, switch the prime to performance for graphic heavy games. Still testing this, but so far I have not have any crashes since applying.

Thanks for confirm this. Yes, my Prime is no longer lagging when browsing or crashing during gameplay..the difference is honestly night and day. Just confirms for me that .21 is not handling the background processes, or closing them correctly.

Hey, do you happen to have the sticky player app installed by any chance?
No I've never used sticky player app.
I've been toying with the idea of factory resetting and trying this. I'll see how it goes tonight

you shouldn't have to factory reset, that would suck
Can you try the soft reset option again? Once it's done, update the setting as listed and try the Prime on performance mode. If that doesn't help, then you may have a bad app which is hogging on your resources and causing the slowdown/crashes.
This procedure also seems to improve on the strength of the Wi-Fi signal. At least on mine it does.

Maybe it's just because the Prime is loading pages a lot faster because there aren't so many things running in the background now. it would be cool though if this also fixed wifi, maybe someone should do a speed test for before and after the fix?
I just tried the default browser again. It does not lag/stutter when scrolling through the pages anywhere near like it used to. it's not as smooth as opera mini, but it's a LOT better than before. Still no game crashes at all since doing this. I can post vids for anyone who would like to see proof after work.

I was gonna do one anyway, just to start from scratch with a blank slate and get it set up how I want it!
After resetting, and before any apps are downloaded the browser is working much much better once the settings you recommend are applied. Loading and scrolling is faster and there have been no force closes or video hangups.
Cheers, I look forward to this .28 update but thats helped me out a lot in the meantime!

Great to hear! yes, my Prime seems much quicker with touch inputs, scrolling, gaming and web browsing. Must of been a bad memory issue along with the kernel for .21.
just did this ans seems to work very well. i was getting around 12-15mbs and now im getting 32mbs in the garage with only 1 bar. im very happy with that. thanks for sharing.
Hey guys
I'm on liquid smooth right now and have some really weird problems.
1. Charging led does not work...I have enabled it in settings but still it doesn't work.
2. My whatsapp group chat typing lags like crazy... Really crazy I have to wait a lot to type something and that's the only thing that lags... Personal chats/everything else do not lag... only group chat typing lags :banghead:
Really weird problem
3. Cannot open opera mini Web browser twice. Yes first time I use it and then go to some other app it doesn't open again... I have to force close it and then it opens..weird thing my web pages of precious session are sometimes intact. This maybe an app problem.
4. Camera keeps shooting pictures.
After focusing and shooting and image the camera won't stop. On every next touch on the phone will result in a picture and sometimes without a touch. I have to press couple of buttons to stop it
Nonetheless it's a really great rom really smooth
I really think these problems are only to me
Please help me with these problems
Thanks in advance
have you done a complete wipe?

Hi!
I am using Ubuntu Touch (15.04) Build 57 on my nexus 4.
Im using Ubuntu touch since a couple of weeks now but there is one thing that is really annoying. There is an immense lag when swiping from the welcome screen. Sometimes it takes 3-4 seconds until something happens. I noticed that this is most of the time when the standard browser app is running.... is this a known problem?
I tested with many apps running (Camera, Contacts, Phoneapp, Email App Dekko, Message App, System Settings, etc....) except the browser - the phone is fast and the experience is nice, but as soon as the browser is runnning, the phone is barely usable.... and really slow. The browser itself is okay when it is running... Very Strange...
Does anyone has suggestions what i can do? Is there an alternative browser i can test?
Thanks a ton for helping!

Hi,
There's no other browser which you can use (except one which hasn't seen any updates for a couple of months). That's indeed an interesting observation. Would you mind creating a bug report here? https://bugs.launchpad.net/webbrowser-app
Hi! thanks - yes i reported the bug - hopefully someone will help me solve this - it's nearly unusable like this...
@zwenson69 Thank you for the bug report.
