Samsung galax ys2 touchability problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s 2 touch screen . I find a lag when i swipe between pages on homescreen not just lag the icons kinda seem vibrating when i do so. But everything is fine when i play games. This has really pissed me off . I had once found a solution similar to my problem in this forum and a solution but that did not help me. I hope you can help me and pray this is not a hardware effect.
I am using the latest ICS. This problem was there when i used its earlier versions. I have tried customs roms like villainrom and miui as well . but the problems persisted.

change your kernal

are you charging your phone when you experience this lag?

Go back to ginger bread (MIUI is really great) if you want the best touch sensitivity.. samsung's ics roms have touch sensitivity problems.

That's what I was thinking too actually. But what is the most recent GB MIUI ROM for GSII? Seems like 2.3.30 isn't for this phone...

Guys read the op.. he already tried GB (Villain Rom)

I have tried using miui and in fact changed to ics from gingerbread because of this problem. with miui the problem was a bit less but still frustrating enough and now i am back to ICS with siyah kernel and also did some settings change from its tweak app. but nthng improved.

I have used other kernels as well and right now using siyah kernel.changing of kernels has not helped
can anyone figure out what has happpened??

hi everyone ........ finally i have found sth that minimises the problem ......... the problem seems to get fixed using ADW launcher ........ how the problem still exists on apps like google play and the default browser ( though not with dolphin browser ) anyways i would be happy if someone could still figure what has happened

Lp4 for me touch screen not responsive LP7 no problem on touch screen .

LCD wakeup lag

Hello
I have got stock rom 2.3.3 and it works fast, no problem with it.
I have only one problem. When i press the Power or Home button it takes 1 second to turn on the screen.... It is not a big lag but it is annoying.
Why? How to fix it?
Its a well documented firmware issue. Upgrade or flash a custom ROM and it goes.

no update available? I need to change rom?
Flashing a custom rom makes no difference. I suspect the baseband

Y u people no stop blaming baseband ?
It's a glitch in GingerBread that is fixed in ICS or Froyo
Defy-ing all limits.
Also fixed in AOSP without stock libraries.

I think the problem's with the cpu speed.. increase the minimum speed of your cpu.. this works for my ace.. good luck mate !

i dont think it is a problem of to slow CPU. It forks fast. But it is something like timeout for lcd. Which ROM dont has got this lag?
Best way for me would be to instal a patch/update becouse of waranty. I have got branded stock rom and i'm happy with it so far.. (fast, no resets)
Its a well documentated gingerbread bug ..... try Google ......

Lag? Not for me.. even real racing 2 doesn't lag one bit and it's quite hardware intensive. I have a feeling asphalt will work.

Same here. Black screen and then goes to app drawer. It looked amazing though. Wish it could work. :silly:
Game looks great but lags a lot. Not so playable.

Yeah.. Strange though.
I gave the same apk and sd data to a friend of mine running gb on an even lower end phone and it worked with low textures
I really hope I have better luck with asphalt :/
Has anyone tried it on fuzz's rom for a Green lens defy?

If you mean the cm7 I'm on it, if you mean cm7 it's terrible for games so I don't have high hopes

Overall I think CM9 handles games better but for some reason I find cut scenes run better on cm7. For instance the opening video of spiderman ran smoothly on cm7 but lagged a bit in CM9

Has anyone else installed this launcher and found it to be a little sluggish on their s2?
Otherwise it is a great launcher!

Indeed. If you want a smooth MIUI-launcher you have to flash a MIUI-rom Cause even with updates it stays laggy etc.

Laggy phone

Is it just me or shouldnt a high end 500€ phone not lag while scrolling in menus in the stock launcher and pressing settings in settings app etc. Feel lag everywhere.
I think i updated to JB ota and after that i factory reseted. May that be the reason?

Project butter is a complete failure on 4.1.1. If you now how to root you can try a custom ROM like CM10? Plenty of instructions on how to root and install these ROMs on this forum...
Yeah but how about that 4.1.2? My galaxy s2 has no lag in menus etc but my s3 lol
4.1.2 is very fluent
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
If you ask me the S3 is a failure altogether, Samsung should never of released it with 1gb of RAM. It just isn't enough.
And they've subsequently admitted that by releasing the LTE version with 2gb of RAM.
My S2 is fast as hell on 4.1.1, no lag anywhere. But my S3 lags like crazy on the same android version.
Zero lag problems here on the 4.1.2 leak. Never seen the thing run faster.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Mine is also running great!
Well,here's my combo:
Flash wannam rom or foxhound + Yank.lu kernel and factory reset.
Voila.
Anyway for those that want to keep it stock,my best friend's dad has an unrooted s3 with jelly bean and it runs great...dunno why you get lags with your....
Maybe try a factory reset?
Or if that fails try sending it back to sammy?
I have the exact same problem, with the same rom as you. My phone is laggy ass hell and battery life is worse than ****...
It should be a crime to take 500 euro's for a phone like this !
I'm running stock 4.1.1 and i don't notice any lag and i always charge every night.. Never died on me

For any one who get some lag in stock ROM please disable power saving mode... maybe this help..
i never use powersaving mode..
@OP disable bloatwares and ur phone will fly , stock rom bloated as hell :silly:
or flash custom rom
flash a different firmware
ive read somewhere here in xda that ui lags is common in stock JB for s3.from what ive observed,might be due too many bloatware and the 1.4ghz clock is not enough with all those apps running in the background which every now and then spikes causing lag(not really sure if thats the reason though).i have tried running stock JB with stock kernel and 77 stock apps removed(bloatware) and i dont get any lags.also tried stock JB with custom kernel(perseus) and overclocked it to 1.6ghz without any bloatware removed and i didnt have any lags.
Ive got all stock apps and about 95 downloaded and never get lag

The remaining files should automatically be un installed, but you can verify that by checking your /android/obb folder for something like com.gameloft.something folder, some games use the /android/data folder but most games now use Obb.
