Yes, I get choppy lag while scrolling through the XDA app, or also on the market. It is annoying.
Figure out which app is causing it and close it. Pulse Is usually what causes mine to do that.

Look at the bottom of the page and change the skin/style from XDA 2010 to XDA classic. HUGE difference! Plus it feels like home......
Stock browser sucks for scrolling, use Opera and it will be buttery smooth

Just did it, I forgot about the piss yellow and doo doo brown theme lol, but yea the choppy scrolling is gone. I always thought its because of the huge animated banners.
It's funny i was about to ask about this..I've gotten slow.lag scrolling sometimes and other times not..im rooted and oc'd to 1.8 using setcpu (until I can figure out the daemon) ..I noticed whenever I lagged setcpu had my CPU running like 300mhz..even when set to performance. All I want is for my CPU to go to the speed i select when the screen is on and back down when its off ..but instead it seems to bounce around too much..I noticed when I turn up both freqs up to 1.8 my browser is butter smooth..I get about 8000 in cf bench.. I wish I can get it to stay like that without having to keep it running so high while sleeping
Well my iPhone is smoother as well but actually is not the evo only is android in general, even tho I have a 3d and a nexus s the nexus seems to kick as out the 3d lol, anyways here is something you can read that way you understand why android is laggy

Hmm...i didnt expect this from google.
Thats nowaday a crappy way of desinging a OS.
They need to make more improvements.
Makes sense.
Have you seen Windows Phone 7? It's sooooooo smooth its not even funny. I mean, it makes me smile every time I'm typing a text message and I switch it to landscape mode. In fact I switch between them because it just makes me smile.
On Android on the other hand.... its just plain bad and choppy even on a dual core device.
The accelerometer has always been one thing that I absolutely hate about Android. Its way too slow. On Windows Phone 7 its INSTANT. On Android its a wait of between 2-5 seconds. Very annoying. And when it finally changes orientation, the transition is crap. It doesn't even exist! (Although Motorola has added one in its Gingerbread builds)

Well sir, bad news for you : your gonna be waiting for awhile for ICS. At least officially.
But yes ICS should fix most of the problems. I still wonder if it will ever reach iPhone/WP7 smoothness.
Microsoft did one thing right with WP7: they made sure it ran the same no matter what hardware you were using. Including the unsupported HD2 haha.

As a former counter strike addict I hear "lag" and think of interped headshots.
But seriously, what do you mean when you say lag? Screen transition lag, app opening lag, web page loading lag?

Launcher pro will speed up the screen transitions. I found the touch wiz screen transitionas pretty slow but the app drawer fast on my GNote as well. Also if you run your finger along the screen dots it flies.

you mean the touch wiz widgets? I was able to load touchwiz wigets on my skyrocket when using launcher pro. I will try on my GNote. I have launcher pro set up but use touch wiz on my GNote.
EDIT: On my skyrocket using launcher pro, I can install any of the touch wiz widgets. Using the Galaxy Note with launcher pro when I try to install the digital clock or accu weather it says "not enough room on this screen" even though there is nothing on the screen. Interesting. Beautiful widgets works fine...
I'm pretty sure the twitter app on the international note does that as well. To me it just seems like people are phishing for instances where the phone lags. This is apparent at least for the mobileburn video, especially when he was in the browser. I don't believe it to be that concerning, personally. While its important to take note of these things, I say sit back, relax, and enjoy the experience.

He actually didn't find lag in any of the phones basic operation which is what would be optimized. He only found lag in a few specific apps. Making the culprit a software issue for those apps and not a hardware problem necessarily. I know for sure on all the android devices I have the twitter apps lags bad. So as far as I'm concerned there is no noticible lag anywhere. The browser functions were smooth as ever, except for the tab switching which iirc happens on the Int. Note as well.

dont worry about lag.i have international version.only time u will see lag is when u wake the device.its because,on the note cpu runs at 200mhz while the note is sleep and does not kick at higher cpu clock unless u launch a app.most of time cpu stays at 200 even scrolling thru touchwiz and app drawer making battery last almost two days.just think of a device running 400mhz with touchwiz.it will be slow as ****.but galaxy note runs pretty good even at lowest cpu clock.you will never see a lag browsing web or playing games.

I am not a gamer but from my experience with my GNote and what I have seen in the videos, they are comparable. I think mintu123 was saying that even with the international GNote, you will see come lag when scrolling between screens and the app drawer because the CPU is not running hard and kicks up the speed when you need the processor for apps etc.
I'm not terribly bothered it only has small but noticeable kicks of lag. But wtvr. I love this beast.

I exchanged my note under the warranty for that exact same reason. The new note did the same thing. It will even do it with dolphin browser eventually sometimes, though not quite as often. Ever since I rooted it and started using cm9 and AOKP with ics+ browser, it hasn't happened again.
I wish she would let me root it. Lol
I have run several ICS roms on my Inspire and I told her she would love CM9. I guess ill just have to wait for the official ICS update for the Note.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I think it has to do with using more than one browser. If you use dolphin, I think it takes over the allotted usable memory for browsers and wipes the other browser's pages out.
I keep checking every other day or so for.the official update, no luck yet.

If you want a lagless android or close, it will be the sgs3. Even the galaxy nexus had some lag and one x also lags.

Yeah, I was going to say the same as some others. I have an sgs2 and its lag free in all the menus, swiping screens and such. In fairness I'm long gone from the stock rom and this makes it in that way an unfair comparison to the stock iphone 4. I would add that I have seen some lag here an there on the iphone and I wonder about it when I see people say its lag free. I would have no quibble with saying its smoother than most android handsets but lag free I cant really agree with.

Don't believe anything you hear about a "buttery smooth" Android device. They all lag. The SGS3 lags horrendously and the stock ROM is actually slower than an SGS2. The overall frame rate is MUCH lower everywhere. The SGS3 completes operations faster, but the frame rate of any action is low and it looks choppy and stutters. CM9 on an SGS2 is far superior in this regard.
Go to a showroom and use all the latest Android devices one by one and then finally use the iPhone 4S. You'll walk away laughing at the laggy Android devices and at how they continue to fail at this simple UI principle for years in a row. Of course, you should still buy the SGS3 over the 4S.

On a personally optimized device, the best you will be able to achieve is bringing the frame rate up to 60 such that the animation appears fluid. However it still wont scroll properly. As you drag your finger up and down it will random jump back and forth by a few pixels and teleport around or suddenly fly to the top or bottom of the list at warp speed.

I have had the sgs3 now for a week and I hate it, the lag in opening the system apps is shocking, and so.is the lag in opening them, mind you this phone is stock, the only thing I have done to it is root it. I had an xperia s before this, I had gingerbread on it. It had no lag whatsoever, only.a bit on facebook. To be honest this phone is very dissapointing. Gonna get rid of it.
I'm starting to get more and more irritated with this phone. I sent my galaxy nexus back for this one and I am starting to regret it. Every time I browse facebook and swipe up or down sometimes it lags about a split second and then it will scroll. It also does it on web pages. I also play the drag racing game and I experience some lag in that game as well. Has anybody had problems like this?

picky are we? lol
here is the thing brother..... you gotta keep this in mind, when these devices are designed/programmed(but this has mostly to do with the programming aspect) the developers try to find a healthy balance between performance and battery efficiency. every now and then you may see it sputter ever so slightly, but it is intentionally designed that way. your other option is to have your GPU in overdrive every time you even breathe on your screen and suck your battery every time you send a text.
don't be so picky. you have a 400mHz GPU with multi-point rendering capability.... it's not the hardware brother....
Sense 4.0 lags sometimes, it sucks but I don't think we can totally eliminate it. I notice it on different occasions, usually when I wake the phone up or open the app drawer.

you are basing "better" on blips in the user interface? lol come on maannn
and for the record... every nexus i have picked up was laggy as balls.... maybe that has something to do with the fact that it has the same GPU in it as the OG nexus
just sayin
i mean if it is TERRIBLY BAD then i would say it is the rom you are on, some misc tweak, maybe your 2d forced rendering isn't checked under the settings, who knows.... but i have had mine for a week now and have maybe seen it sputter like once. and i use it pretty heavily.
The EVO is better for some coming off different phones with completely different hardware. The evo 4g vs LTE is a no brainer. LTE wins. The nexus on the otherhand has similar specs as the EVO. (Dual core, ics, screen resolution?) Anyways you get the point. Get a phone based on personal preference. Not because its "the next big thing" the nexus is a great phone for some. Definetly not for me. Hence the reason why I got the LTE rather than the ole so stunning S3 or nexus..
hardware is beyond than extraordinary. Root the beast and unleash its full potential (when the proper Roms are fully functional). Or wait out official HTC updates.. my 2 cents

Maybe you're just having a buyer's remorse cause you didn't go with the GS3 and convincing yourself the Evo is not good enough.
Two top phones right now for sprint is Evo LTE and GS3, everything else falls short.
The only stuttering or lag I get is sometimes on my lockscreen. I am using the weather lockscreen and the weather will stutter it's way in instead of being fluid. I think it is just the phone coming out of sleep.

Two top phones right now for sprint is Evo LTE and GS3, everything else falls short.

Lol thanks for all the feedback guys and for not completely criticizing me. I never wanted the S3 to begin with. But I will agree with some things that were said about sense being a little buggy and what not. And I didn't get this phone because it was the next big thing. I got it because my nexus would get really hot when I was using it and the battery life was bad.

I’ve actually noticed this as well and I agree that it’s a little annoying. When scrolling in pretty much any app, my finger will move about 0.2” before the screen reacts. Once it realizes that my finger is on there, there is no problem tracking.
I downloaded Touch Test from the market and confirmed that this is not a hardware issue. In that app, the moment my finger touches the display, it begins tracking. The lock ring also moves immediately on the lock screen, so it must be something in certain apps.
I have noticed lag in the browser when scrolling when I have flash enabled. I noticed on my Galaxy S2 that when I would scroll down a web page with flash content, any flash content that is active continues to to be active while scrolling and it was VERY smooth. On the EVO LTE however, anything active flash content will become inactive. The lag I have experienced seems to be when the Evo takes a split second to "pause" any active flash before it begins scrolling. The more flash on a page, the more lag I experience. I've simply turned off my flash player. It's annoying to have to do that, but I have come to terms with it.

A decent connection and Chrome (updated) work well with no lag (that I can see or tell).

I'm definitely kinda bummed out on the performance of this phone. it started off great, but lately its been quite bad. Lag when I unlock the phone... Lag when I open the messaging app... Lag when I open and use the browser.. It's terrible. I've come to expect more from this generation of cpu from qualcomm but it's turning out to be the same ol ****
