Hi folks,
Noticed some slowdown with with Xperia Ray when i've a few things going on, like maybe listening to poweramp, and browsing the web, skype open and if i press the home button, the screen takes a couple of seconds to redraw. I have a few things running, im using Widget locker for my lockscreen, and fancy widgets to give me something like the HTC Sense homescreen with time/weather info..
Is there anything bar removing these widgets/apps i can do to increase performance? i've moved any apps i can that are installed to main memory to the SD card
Cheers,
Mick

Hello guys,
This phenomenon has been through dozens of i9000 roms and a good two dozen i9000 roms, LauncherPro ALWAYS FCs when I reboot the phone.
It seems the phone is still scanning the SD memory. In settings it says Launcherpro is installed on device (default) so I wonder why I would always get these FCs? Anybody know whats going on with that?
Cheers,
Mark
You will need to change the memory settings in Launcher Pro. Go in advanced then memory usage. Tick one of the preset in the bottom. If you have a lot of home screens and widgets like me, pick the one that says "low". Don't take the last one in the bottom though.
That could also make the whole scrolling through home screens a lot smoother. Much more so than TouchWizz.
You might get a few FC on startup every once in a while but 8 times out of 10 it'll go fine.

Hi
Thanks Davith, I have set that and will see how it goes... cheers for that. I would have thought LOW would mean the app gets less memory allocated, so therefore would be MORE prone to crashing! I wonder why LOW would make it more stable, do you know?

I have when I have the app tiny flashlight +led downloaded, and it's widget on the homescreen to the right of the main one that when I come from txt messenger..or hit home ( to see all the screens at once) then hit home again my screen will glitch.
Will someone please please try this to see if it is my phone, or the app. Please hit the home button a few times, and go from other apps back to main home screen and see if you get a glitch. Only seems to glitch whatever is on that main screen.. like in my case..beautiful widgets and smooth calendar widget. Also had a similar problem with visidon applock. On that one I would hit the home button and after a few times the screen previews would go all wonky.
I just need to know if my phone is messed up or if these 2 apps just cause problems with the RAZR. I just think its odd that I'm having problems with 2 different apps.
Thanks to any that help!!!
CORRECTION
both apps are now deleted and am still having the problem.
Can only describe as a screen glitch. widgets glitch out. I think you have to have some sort of widgets on the screen to see the issue. I took off all widgets other than the stock blur ones, and still have the issue.
Any help or ideas? Anyone having the same issue?
Yep I get this as well, especially on my power control plus widget.

Surely this isn't normal? When I had beautiful widgets on it was SO obvious and annoying. Wondering what to do now? Take it back?
hello everyone
i'm facing some software problems, the mini diary icon move it self to page 3 on app menu and every time i move it back to page2 it move it self to page3 next day, its not that big deal, but you know, even sometimes the 4 main shortcuts in the bottom (dialer, contacts, messaging and apps) disappear and 4 other apps take their place, do you think i should change the rom? by the way im using an official rom
thanks in advance
Hi! I also have this problem. I'm also on stock (2.3.5)I have noticed the problem after updating the os. Besides your problem,mine cannot hold the icons in folders. I put them in,but after i restat the phone they are allover the menu list. Any fix, anybody? I heard the problem is the launcher...
Am i the only one who notices that the stock launcher when going between homescreens is not very smooth? I seem to have to move my finger about 2 inches before it starts "turning the page" as it were, and then its very jittery going between the screens. Has anyone else noticed this?
what can i do to fix it?
You shouldn't have to "move your finger" at all. Just touching the edges of the screen moves between the different home screens.
As for general sluggishness: What apps are you running? Are you using a live wallpaper? How many widgets do you have active? What power mode are you running?
I haven't had any severe jitter or sluggishness, but I found that certain live wall papers made my Prime noticeably slower when switching home screens. Certain widgets also made things sluggish. Since turning them off made things run smooth I can only assume that some downloadable widgets and wallpapers just aren't optimized very well.
Just reverted back to stock and its nice and smooth. will have to monitor what apps i install, widgets i use, etc. to see whats causing it.
I like sliding between screens instead of tapping the edges to flip pages... used to it from using my phone.
hopefully i can track down whats causing the lag i was experiencing.
As to the setup i had:
Asus weather widget
Asus task manager widget
Asus date widget
One page dedicated for games, like 20 shortcuts for games
one page dedicated for other apps, maybe 15-20 shortcuts to apps
always in performance mode, why bother reducing speed when the battery lasts longer than i need anyways?
Hello everyone!!!
I'm a proud owner of the xperia s smartphone complete with ics firmware.
However i noticed when i run a few apps (e.g. browser, games, messages) and i go back to my homescreen, it resets itself (app icons reload, wallpaper takes some time to load, scrolling homescreens takes a little longer...) and it is annoying as hell... I can't open my browser and go back to my homescreen without having to wait 30 sec for it to load so here is my question: How do i solve this?
If there are already threads about this problem I would appreciate a link thank you but i already browsed a lot...
thank you :laugh:

i don't have this issue,maybe you are using lot of widgets???
if you are rooted delete all unneeded applications and bloatware.
and every time you exit and app use the back key not the home key.
