Hey guys, running flapjaxxx most current revision of the unofficial. And am looking for a widget that can read the data usage as reported from Settings > Data usage instead of taking its own measurement . I have found that the systems do the counter is more accurate than any app I have tried
There isn't one. Requires, rooting and porting.

why not just dial *3282# ?
Because this is so ugly and non intuitive.

Am I the only one that is sometimes seeing major lag when an app closes and the launcher redraws? In by case it is sometimes over a second.
Well known issue that has been mentioned already in numerous threads. I use SS launcher so don't have that problem.

the stock launcher will not lag on its own, check for background cpu utilization with os monitor app and disable those apps .

Yeah LF2, solved my issues straight away even with a different launcher

Yeah, I'm on fl2? Oddly enough I only got one firmware update though. Is that correct? My build number is IMM76D.I9300XXALF2

If you read carefully enough, Dr. Paul, you'll find that you are on ALF2!
Is LF2 only through Kies? I got the OTA update to LF1, and that's all the OTA updater says is available. Or it's just VodaGroan being rubbish as usual.

Been looking in the forum and found this issue under another heading. I fixed it by rooting and changing the davlik VM heap size from 256 to 128mb. How did Samsung manage to screw this up?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Another thing to consider is whether you've got power saving on or off? If it's on and CPU power saving is turned on, the CPU runs at 800mhz rather than 1400mhz. This will show a noticeable difference in smoothness.

God knows but as with any phone there are always issues at first. As long as they are resolved then it's not a big deal

i just wanna share how i got rid of the lag and home respawn issue on my sgs3... i'm not saying it is a fix but these are the only things i did that work for me... there is no harm in trying...
1. disable double tap home button to activate s voice.
2. disable s voice using application manager
3. reboot... and after 3 days, no lag or whatsoever... but there was always the home respawn thing when i'm running a lot of apps on background...
4. uninstall facebook app... this app seems to eat most of the memory... reboot... now, i don't need to close any program running thru task manager... i check it and see 12 apps running but never had a respawn.. all is well now... i don't even think of rooting flashing a rom now... everything just seems to be running so well...
**i know some of you would say that it's not an option to uninstall FB app, i for myself would love to use it but i'd rather have a lag and respawn free sgs3 and use the FB desktop mode... but then again...that's just me...

Been using touchpal contacts. It's a great app. No lag. The only Thing missing is swipe to call/sms. But it has gesture dialling which is just super. Try it .

There are a lot on playstore. Just get the one you like and try them out by yourself.

There are quite alot of apps which monitors data usage, but don't know which one to choose which monitors data usage accurate
hi lither,
what ROM are you using? stock Samsung?
on stock, aosp, aokp or cm10 you can observe the mobile data and WiFi usage under settings/data usage -there you will also find an option to set a data warning and limit on which your phone automatically turns off mobile data.
hope it helped you

Hi,
Please make sure that your DPI/resolution/display settings have been set to default. It might be caused if you rooted your device and some display settings changed.

No I haven't changed anything about display DPI or resolution and I'm on stock but still it is happening. Although I'm root. Any clue?

If you're rooted, then something must be running that is altering your display settings. Even something small like changing the height of your notification or navigation bar will change the widgets configuration.

Okay guys, so after using a lot of tweaks for the rom I'm at a point where my performance and battery life is pretty good. So here's the one one app which always saves battery life like a pro:
SetCPU - it's a life savor, try setting up some profiles in it for the different battery states and lock screen etc. By setting normal CPU on lock screen to 300 it got so much better battery life.
To find the app just search "SetCPU" in play store, it does require root acces.

Hmm, I am pretty sure that SetCPU needs a custom kernel with change-able clock speeds.

To overclock? Yes. To manage CPU profiles according to battery level, lock screen and so on. Only root is needed. Its only the frequency it changes

sorry for offtopic, before i factory reset i used rom toolbox pro for cpu profiles. i also found sd booster - it works for internal memory and external micro sd card.
i see there is standalone app for that also -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mehrmann.sdbooster&hl=pl

Doesn't it damage the memory ?
There are some reviews that claim this damaged their phone.

i don't know. imho it does not because it's about caching files, it's something like creating ram from int/ext memory and someone said:
Yeah it will degrade the life of the sdcard, which is why I advise users to perform due diligence in the Disclaimer/Warning.
But from the research I did it seems that the degradation is negligible enough that something else in the device will break before the sdcard. Or even more likely the user will replace their device due to pace of technology before the degradation is really noticed.

creating 256mb swap partition is more than actually making 4mb cache so i think it is barely impossible to damage the storage even because we download many apps or games so the storage is filling with data too
it is only my opinion
