I've been using the mini running 2.1 for about 2 weeks now. At the start I noticed considerable lag while sync or while heavy multi tasking. This simple way made my phone give a quadrant score of 570 without JIT.
* Install titanium backup
* Freeze every unused applications
* restart
Your so called lag will definitely vanish.
Removing apps is kinda bad to the file system because some apps will depend on the other for a service. Freezing just makes the app unresponsive and takes it out of memory completely.
Have fun. Post the result. Those who have already removed apps , ignore !

Thanks. Works really well. Only problem is still my lag in my msg app. Do you know which system processes we can freeze?

I read you have +7000 messages... i dont think you can reduce lag with that... you will need to delete
How can you freeze your unused AppS? I can not do that.
Whew almost repaired again, me and my stupid impulses..
Just to clarify, the apps that I would most likely freeze would be the same as those listed as safe to remove on the other threads?
I haven't really removed applications from my ROM, as my TB doesn't show me an option to restore an app once its been removed [though it has a backup]
Hence my 4th, most recent, repair >_<
warning i did this earlier and froze something that stopped the market from working, i unfroze everything and now i still get force close when i open the market
Specifically which apps did you freeze?
Can't remember but i know i did some google ones, i didnt think freezing them could mess up my phone
did you reboot the phone after unfreezing.
Yes many times, I have removed a few apps before I tried this maybe freezing them caused some kind of error?

I also get random system restarts on mine. I don't know what's the cause because it's intermittent.
I can not launch market, neither sync my Google acount. I have unfrozen everyapp, but no solution. Please help!!!!
i had the same problem! google apps stop working after being frozen and still dont work after being defrosted the only way i found to fix it was reinstall the firmware

Not sure why so many apps are consuming so much CPU power. Like face recognition, home, other google stuff. It's been over a day and still theses apps are processing or whatever they are doing
Kinda disappointed with 2.1 atm.

I rooted my X10 and deleted all Sony dumb apps, no my X10 with 2.1 is Ok
I rooted mine as well, but haven't deleted the Sony crap yet. Could you refer me to a few threads here so I can do so as well.
I'm so close to dumping this X10 :/

Simply use Titanium Backup to freeze apps. No need to delete anything.
I noticed huge lag as well while playing with the phone for the first 15mins and thought it would get used to the new OS, it didn't. One solution I found, and worked for many people was simply restarting the phone. Now my phone doesn't seem like the same laggy X10 I had. For Titanium Backup info and instructions, here is the developer's official wiki: http://matrixrewriter.com/wiki/tiki-index.php if that doesn't help use the search feature on XDA, or Google it...
Also when deleting Sony apps be careful things like Mediascape are used for putting contact pics in your phonebook, etc. It is also the default mediaplayer so don't delete it. Same with Timescape, if you use your phonebook contacts connected from facebook, I noticed some data is taken from Timescape.
Somethings that I can confirm are safe to delete:
1. Moxier Mail
2. Wise Pilot
3. Creatouch
Before doing this, backup everything with Titanium Backup, no harm in backing up
Well I've been running 2.1 since the day it was released and I've rooted but haven't uninstalled anything and everything is running smoothly for me. As it is for my two mates.
It runs a lot faster then the Galaxy S 2.1.
I haven't come across any lag yet.

I followed the advice on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826491
i just installed the update but my phone kindda lagg..
any solutions on this?
Just wait for few minutes. New Dalvik VM is on its way so it is a bit slow to start . Give it ~10-15 mins.
Patience Required
I have done some research and testing, Found that mainly face recon, media apps, Google Sync, where draining power but leaving on phone overnight, charging it had finished processing all the pictures and synced data on my phone, of course you can remove apps but I wouldn't recommend any SE based ones as they all control certain parts to improve phone quality.

I was one of the first that got the oficiall 2.1 update and i stumbled upon something.
When i got it i just used google sync on almost everything. but then i realised i needed some apps that i had made a backup of by using MyBackup PRO. So i thought that "oh well, might just sync the contacts again".
Thats when all hell started to break loose on my poor phone, it was lagging like CRAZY, all the time. Didnt matter what i did, still the same issue...
So i formated and reinstalled everything on the phone, and everything was going extremly smooth. Like the first time experience all over again.
Then i realized "Damn, i havent restored my contacts" and then it hit me. All my problems started when i restored contacts using ANYTHING else BUT Google's own sync. Cuz once i was going to restore it using MyBackupPro it said something about not being able to restore cuz no Google account was found on contacts, but i already had logged in my entire phone with my google account, exxept syncing my contacts with Google.
So my guess is that they have incorporated the contacts too much with Timescape and Google Sync so if u use like Titanium Pro or MyBackup or watever backup program, it will give u issues with this update.
But its meerly a speculation from my side...
Other Point....
The other thing I did notice a lot of is the developer/Diagnostic tool this I imagine will be used to send logs and stats back to SE for 2.1 optimisations for newer firmware, Though it very random at times.

Yea, i'm curious what is it...
I think i'm going to freeze it with Titanium.
Also another process running is R2R or something.
Anyone knows what is it?
Yea, I was afraid I would have to start from scratch again. Not sure what else to do atm, but "home" is using a lot of cpu power.

Remove "Home" and use a 3rd party launcher (LauncherPro, ADW Launcher)
You will be surprised how much quicker they are
what can be deleted
There is much better way to clean SE garbage applications than manual delete
use SystemApp Remover it is commercial applications it can be found here http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/systemapp-remover_kbyr.html
price is 1$
it works great on rooted x10i
applications are uninstalled from phone as they were never installed.
Safe to uninstall:
Korean keyboard
Japanese keyboard
Chinese keyboard
Danish keyboard
TrackID
moxiemail
quadrapop
backup & recovery
facebook
Wise Pilot
Creatouch
playnow and two accompanying files
there are some others like e-manual etc. But search forum for more complete list and SystemApp Remover can backup applications before uninstall so you can restore them if things go south
for contact backup use SE sync it is a good one if you use other SE phones
that's my 2 cents
R2R

Does it actually work? And if it does, does it save a significant amount of battery?
Ive heard it works and I've heard it doesn't work I dont use it I get about 16 - 20 hours with moderate use using the freeze option in titanium backup pro this belongs in q&a btw
My bad on the Q&A part. But thanks for the help.

How, using the freeze option in Ti Backup to freeze an app, save your battery?
Some apps don't stop running when you back out of them some system apps run all the time but are not needed freeze them and they won't eat your battery all day long .......longer battery life!
Sorry for the noob question but how do you figuer out which app is running all the time even when its not showing up in the default task manager. I would love to use this feature to get more juice out of my battery.
System panel is an app you can get and see what apps are running in the background and if there not crucial to the system freeze them I would ask someone before freezing anything though cause you could really screw up your phone and have to odin back to stock which isn't that bad just a pain in the ass

Not to get off topic, but does anyone have a list or recommend common apps to freeze? I see it mentioned a lot and everyone says ask someone before freezing, but I never see examples of what is safe and what is not.

Freeze drm and samsung apps and media hub and then I freeze whatever apps I don't use cause some apps have core functionally if you freeze them you'll get f/c but I'll try to make a list of things I freeze and post it later

I'm curious about this as well. Is there a good rule of thumb abou what things are not going to cause problems to freeze?
Now, I freeze the basic stuff, like Allshare, etc. because I don't use them, but I'd like to dig deeper into what services can actually be frozen as well.

You may have froze something that wasn't bloatware, check again just to be sure.
Don't freeze more than a couple apps at a time, then use the phone as you normally would & see if everything works. That way if something goes wrong, it's much easier to figure out which is the essential app

the lte switch has nothing to do with phone calls since calls arent made over data. my advice? switch to a rom that is already debloated. save yourself the trouble
Can you list the apps you froze here?

If you are still having connection problems
1. Unfreeze everything
2. Reboot
3. Turn on airplane mode
4. Turn off airplane mode
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Unfreeze half the apps you froze, see if the problem goes away. If it doesn't, freeze them again and unfreeze the other half.
Keep freezing half at a time, switching to the other half when you cause the problem again and you will very quickly identify which app is causing your issue when frozen.
If you start with 32 apps that you frozen and you freeze the wrong half every time following this process, you will track down the problem in just 10 steps.
Focus on one issue at at time, ie X either works or it doesn't.
If you have more than one issue just repeat the same procedure. You could try and track more than one issue at a time, but that makes a very simple process more complex.
Here is a list of confirmed bloatware that is safe to freeze/remove, just in case: http://forum.androidcentral.com/thu...afe-remove-once-rooted-how-put-them-back.html
Basically do not remove VZW Backup and Friend Stream

Did you do a backup before freezing any apps? If so, load the backup and start again by freezing a few at a time. Or you could just unfreeze all the apps you froze.
When I first rooted my phone I actually moved the apps off my phone onto my sdcard and renamed them. Now I'm running a custom rom and that is working great.
So I've read the homescreen / re-draw lag posts & Ive tried everything suggested with no luck.
Problem is my GS3 lags constantly, bringing up messages, contacts, app drawer, everything. On the lockscreen the ripple lag is like 2-3 seconds, its getting extremely frustrating. Ive tried checking in OS monitor for a CPU lockup but theres nothing I can see that would be causing it.
Im running Omega V3, Apex launcher, on Vodafone Australia.
The other issue im having is my browser is f/c ALL the time, pretty much everytime I use it, it locks up for about 10 secs then returns to homescreen with the message saying Interent has stopped working.
Have reinstalled ROM twice, its runs super quick until I reinstall apps from Titanium Backup, then it just drags. Would there be a conflict with an app / data from my GS2 backup? Is there a way I can run a log to check? I have Android Assistant, and have checked the log, but im too much of a noob to know what to look for, although it seems to be running a lot of debug lines but I dont know if thats normal..
Thanks in advance.
The restoration of backup sounds like the cause. I recommend you restore the apps one at a time or in small batches. That way you can figure out which app is causing the problem.
my apex launcher is usually fast , but i've aswell that 3sec lag when i push homebutton.but that happens only sometimes.
ive also ticked that option to keep launcher in ram...
iam using omega rom and no bloatware or s voice

Exactly what I was thinking. Do your fresh install, then restore the apps only and see how that works out.

Hi. I recently posted on this forum coz I always only had 120 free MBs and my smartlhome started to go pretty slow without any reason. When I was typing on whatsapp it suddenly closed, I couldn't send any instant camera pictures because camera suddenly closes too, etc...
So I decided to root my phone and uncheck the 2 options of MLT Test (Enable option and USB depurate option) and seems like I get more free mbs but now the RAM it started to get short again, Im still gettin 150mbs again and thats annoying....
There is any solution ti fix this? Im using Clean Master too.

Ps. I got an app of my Phone Company and I dobt know how to unibstall it, it is desactivated but I couldnt find thr way to erase it, I've tried many explorers but didn't show up.

Disable mlt is always a good way of gaining a little more ram, also the longer you have your phone running, the more it'll start lagging. So restart it for at least every time you charge it again. Also a bit more than that. Clearing caches isn't always the right solution, due to the fact that your phone has to load everything again, and it is sometimes quicker if you already have the apps cache there as the app will start quicker. If you have a lot of your apps running in the background, messenger, Facebook etc which are quite heavy when it comes to taking up ram, either delete them, or find apps which automatically close certain apps you choose yourself, and remove them from starting on boot.

Completely forgot to mention, if you go into developer settings, then there should be a ProcessStatics or something, it's also called geeky stats, in there it tells how the memory status is, which is the thing managing ram and so on, you can click on every app and see how much it uses and so on, its quite handy. And I'm not sure about the temperature, it doesn't sound alarming so it should be fine
