Hi,
Guys i have the XWLA4 stock rom and the swype that came with it lags to the extreme :/ I was thinking about overwriting it with the one from swype.com so was wondering about the difference between them? Any advantage of stock swype over the one from swype.com?
Swype from site is better. For me it is much more responsive and smoother. Maybe it's because of CM9, i switched both keyboard and Rom at the same time. But anyway from site you get the latest version.

What I experienced from stock was reliability.but yes lag was there.it wasn't responsive enough.and when I installed custom ICS on my s2 I downloaded Swype from the website.and I've found it better but the lag is still there.no much change :-(

Thanks...so no other reason to not switch..i guess will update to the new swype and share my experience here
Ok update to the latest from the website ( uninstalled the stock using Titanium <- You gotta love that software)..anyhow after the update there is no lag at all ...before for e.g. when i was in clock app setting alarm, after i click on the timer counter to change the value the swype keyboard (stock) appeared in no time but as soon as i press anytime it will get stuck for two or maybe sec and then register with beeps and the value will change but with the new one (from swype.com) no lag there, no lag in writing sms so quite happy !!! IMO every1 should upgrade!!!!

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.

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

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.

Hi,
First off, galaxy s2 is still an amazing phone compared to the beasts released this year, fulfills every need at great speed and life.
I would recommend to you the Hyperdroid rom, it is simply the best where speed, life, response and its simplicity matters. I am a very happy user, thanks to Hyperdroid team, it wouldn't have been possible for me not to worry about its battery life and yet get great performance. It's based off official Samsung rom, so everything is guaranteed working. Best combination would be Hyperdroid rom + Redpill kernel which is also made by the same dedicated team, props to them. You won't be disappointed
Regarding the notification light, yes it very much possible, if I'm not wrong it requires a custom kernel like redpill...or any other of your choice. From the play store, type in BLN notification.
Samsung Galaxy SII Xtreme ED
Xtreme Energy-Xtreme Power to Live
Impossible made Possible
I recommend the "MIUI v4" Rom..ist smooth and beautifull...and there are updates every week
Yes but I don't like the Samsung touchwiz style interface in fact I hate it, also I would like to have an app drawer which knocks miui off the list.
any more suggestions

Why not try some other launcher, such as Go Launcher, ADW, etc, in place to pick a full ROM?
You mean I can put adw. On top of miui, I'm gonna give that a try. Also is there any way to make a log of all the websites visited through any browser and have that remotely accessible?

I'm currently using v14 of this rom on SGS2 and for me it's just what I need
Many apps/settings included in this rom makes using the phone much faster and easier
It also includes Apex lancher mentioned by indresh88 which I guess is the best lancher
Good morning.
Ive been using my i9300 for about two months now. Im a former iPhone 4 user. I have noticed that the i9300 despite the fact that it has quad-core and 1GB RAM, is not at all smooth :/ I always get lag in the Homescreen and in the settings etc etc. I've tried like 20 ROMS or so :/ am i doing something wrong here? E.g. scrolling between homepages can get laggy! That wasnt supposed to happen right?\
Im currently at MIUI 2.9.14 ROM. Maybe im doing something wrong when i flash a new ROM?
What are the steps?
I delete the whole internalSD, i perform a data/factory reset via CWM, i delete cache and Dalvik Cache. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

The rom you are on has problem of memory leak.
Just use a samsung-based rom. Your trouble will be fixed.

Yeah try that combo. Wanam or Omega Jelly Bean XXDLI8 leaks are very smooth.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
there are plenty of custom roms out there,
most of the JB leaks are much smoother than the ICS roms i have been using.( i am sure there are ICs roms that are smooth as well , just that i have not tested before. )
currently on Omega v23 and happy with it, no lags. you may just have to spend some time experimenting which one is to your preference.
Sir, I suggest you try out Omega ROM (ICS or JB) doesn't really matter, cause Omega is really really stable. I'm not prompting whatsoever because I'm on MIUI 2.9.14 too with hardcore speed mod kernel and it is perfectly great.
One advice, try not flashing so many ROMs at one go because it might cause system error such as connectivity to wifi or packet data. Stick to one you really like.
Edit: Do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware on PC Odin and root again to remove any bad 'history' and the lag too.
Hope I did manage to help!
Great day

If you want a rapid ICS rom then use Foxhound 1.4.3, it is quite simply the best ICS rom there is, and believe me i've tried them all.
Couple it with Galaxsih kernel @normal and apex launcher not much comes close to it.
As for Jelly bean, take your pick but just know that there are no final builds as of yet and all of them are leaks, meaning that kernel support is limited.
Thanks everyone ive never flashed back to stock before i used custom rom and i think that May be it like one of you suggested. About that miui rom and hardcore speed mod. It works on any MIUI rom or only on specific ones? If it does work on every miui where can i find it? I really like miui
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
You are welcome mate hmm what do you mean?? I'm using hardcore speed mod on my MIUI rom and I don't experience any lag (Provided you use apex launcher PRO too) I even have great battery life (8 hrs of hardcore using; with wifi or packet data On). You can definitely flash speedmod on your MIUI 2.9.14 and you will know what I mean.
Omega ICS on the other hand, is really stable and having that 'stock-ish' feel. But on MIUI, you know we rule the game.
Edit: If you wanna try out Omega, do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware (It will unroot device) then root again then try out Omega. It is really your decision.
But again, you know who rule the game with MIUI. Haha.
Great day ahead.

To get rid of the memory leak, go to ES Explorer, give it root and write permissions (in its options), then go to system/bin/ and delete kiesexe. You won't be able to use Kies anymore, but it'll kill the leak because it's caused by that process.
you should use the stock TW without scrolling wallpaper mod =p
I just prefer you to flash DLI18 stock JB from sammobile, wipe everything before flash, and I would prefer you to change animation scale and duration scale from 1 to 0.5,

Just a suggestion.... If you really like MIUI, but want a smoother and more stable ROM, why don't you flash the latest CM10 build, and then install MiHome Launcher? MiHome Launcher is the default launcher used in MIUI and it comes with an optional MIUI lockscreen as well. Once both are installed, it's virtually indistinguishable from a full MIUI ROM. Plus, it'll have the speed and smoothness of Jelly Bean with the stability of CyanogenMod (or as stable as a pre-release build can be).
Anyway, it was just a thought. Good luck to ya'!

But i find it really annoying that HTC ONE X users have smoother ROMS than me Their stock is smoother than any Custom Rom ive used.. wtf exynos? Im really thinkin of selling my 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

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

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

Hi
I have installed the cm10 on my gt p7510 and I have to say i am having a very bad experience
Yeah it was considerably faster but i had some bugs.. stuff that gets to me
1 Volume control is horrible when using a headphone and when listening to music the sound kinda like lag every once in a while
2 when playing games where u use tow hands one to aim and one to walk like shadowgun.. the aim and walking both suddenly stop and u have to pull away ur finger and try again this happens a lot and makes playing games a bit frustrating
I do like the cm10 its faster kinda takes care of the lag I had on the official ICS I don't want to get back to it plzz help
So can anybody tell me if there is a solution for any of these problems or maybe a better build
My most annoying problem would have to be number 2 thnx
I've had the second problem. So you're not the only one. Make sure to keep updating through nightlies.

Good to know that I am not the only one
I just want the devs to know this so they might be able fix it
I already tried the latest build of nightly same problem
I hope the 4.2 wouldnt have such a problem

You didn't specify the name of the kernel so I'm assuming that you're on the default build that comes with cm10?
How about trying a different kernel? I personally suggest (and use) the a1 kernel as it can be overclocked up to 1.6mhz.
On the stock kernel I was unable to play gta3 because it was too laggy. but when I installed the a1 kernel, and setup a setCPU profile to o/c at 1.6mhz on the "performance" setting while playing gta3, the gameplay was liquid smooth.
So perhaps try that kernel and see if it irons out your issue.

I had no idea u could over clock to 1.6 I thought the limit was 1.4 I will try this definitely
But I don't think it'll work cause the game had no problems on stock ICS or cm9 ICS
But I will try if it solves it I'll report back thnxx
Just flashed it and overclocked to 1.6 GHz
noooooo luck still the same. U have the same tab as I do , did u have the same problem?
Just a quick question will overclocking like damage the CPU should I do it or what
Thnx again for ur concern
update
Update:
I think the problem actually is in the kernel
Heres what i did: I INSTALLED CM9 cause I just had enough with cm10 cause THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY SOLUTION
After I installed the cm9 EVERY THING WAS WORKING GREAT even the game THEN I thought TO INSTALL THE KERNEL TO BE ABLE TO overclock TO 1.6GHZ it installed oky ....I didn't overclock and tried the game again and I got the same problem then reinstalled cm9 again and the problem was gone
So I think the problem is with the cm10 kernel..... I don't know maybe iam wrong tell me what do you think
Any way iam gonna stick with the cm9 at least till the 4.2 is out
