Ok, so i updated my xperia S to ICS and when i get in the settings app and when i scroll it's stuttering and lagging as hell! Also when i long press home button and the recent apps show it also stutter alot, and when im swiping left and right. Is there any fix for that? I'm on 6.1.A.2.45.
And i cannot unlock the bootloader so roms and kernels ar not the solution
What launcher are you using? If you have just updated maybe give it some time to settle?
. 45 is a lot smoother for a lot of people. I would maybe try a force restart with power and volume up and then just use it for some more hours and see if there are any changes.

Well, i'm using stock launcher, which came with the phone.
I have ics for one week and its nitbgetting better, and then i wanted to install a custom kernel butb i can't because my bootloader is locked
I mean, my old nexus S with single core is much smoother in settings app, almost fluid, like a butter and my new xperia with dual core processor is lagging as hell.. :/

Well at the moment my experia S is a lot smoother than my girlfriends nexus S
So really I think all these phones are a bit crazy sometimes!
Try my restart suggestion. But if it is lagging a lot in general, re flashing the firmware might be the best solution.

Well in almost every aspect Xperia S is smother (facebook app, evernote etc.) But only in launcher and settings app it laggs CONSTANTLY and it's not a minor lag, it's huge.
EDIT: Force restart didn't help :/

Reflashed the firmware and i still have the same problem :/

Is anyone else experiencing the Touchwiz launcher rebooting after being in an app and coming out if it for a period of time. Really bugging me that I can't find anything reporting the same problem?

There's loads of threads on this. Change dalvik cache size or just use Nova launcher. IMO it's better.

There have been loads of reports about it.
Use Nova as the poster above said or go to android.mimic.ca and upload your services.jar and it'll change the oom priorities so the launcher isn't killed.

I really think I need a lesson in how to search properly. So if I use another launcher will Touchwiz lay dormant or still be running in the background?

You could try checkrom's latest release, they have tweaked tw to reduce redraws, I haven't noticed the problem since I flashed it.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Any reason why you recommend nova as to apex. I read they are so similar. I wanna know the best so I can pay for the full one

Still does it whether on custom roms or whether you apply any and all the tweaks on the forum, it also happens with all the launchers.
Serious problem that needs to be addressed.
You will also notice multitasking is a complete no no as all the other apps reload too.
More ram is needed or many many less running apps.
Go launcher doesn't seem to redraw if you can stand such an old launcher.
Peace.

You're doing it wrong.
Go launcher is ****.
I NEVER get redraws with Nova.
Use my phone constantly, on 5hrs 12min screen on right now and not one redraw all day.
Stop your whining all over xda.

Couldn't disagree more, I don't get any redraws using checkrom. And when it comes to go launcher, it's probably the most bloated and clunky browser there is albeit highly customizable. Nova and Apex are probably just a good as each other. Touchwiz seems to use less resources than other launchers but it is lacking in features.

To be fair not one re draw from nova as yet. The card scrolling effect of home screens is probably my favourite bit

What's this service that can change something to stop the launcher from being killed all about. I've decided I like the standard Touchwiz now

I don't think so.
The only options would be to flash newer firmware manually with Odin (may our may not help) or use market launcher such as nova or apex. They have option in settings to keep launcher in memory. It can help, but not always prevent launcher getting killed off.

So ive finally raged and unlocked my bootloader to get rid of the bloatware.. Still its damn laggy..Homescreen redraws Alter using the Browser or heavy games apps are slow to load( sometimes even 15 seconds for chrome...) help is really appreciated!!

I had the same issues on ics, and now on ka09. Though considerably less noticeable on the new kernel. Still major lag in opening apps, and launcher redrawing, using adwlauncher ex.

so there's nothing we can do about it?
Mine had nowhere near those issues. Try wiping the phone and uninstall bloatware.
ICS is working perfectly here,no bugs at all,even without rooting.

I found it unusably slow. I then rebooted it TWICE and left it 15 minutes for the media database to update. It is now smooth as silk.
Just got to sort this one last NFC issue and I will be happy.

Done this twice now.Nothing changed. This is just unacceptable.
I find ICS removing unused apps too fast from the RAM. For example if i go into contacts and Call someone and then in the browser it will take the contacts 3/4 seconds to load again.

1. Type proper sentences.
2. Have you tried rebooting the phone?
3. Have you checked if other apps are running?
4. Is power saving on?

Check first if ur on Powersave mode, then check running apps that eats up memory or kill or freeze apps that u don't need which are causing lags.
Hope this helps !
Yes..i do reboot. And doesnt make thing..and no power saver is active. Mo running app
But guys i want to motice that..the lage is only wgen scrolling pages not more

did you installed other launcher? cause i have the same problem with Nova, Apex e Adw launcher. I tried Chameleon launcher and all is fine.
i think that your problem is the same of me.
Its a problem that all Xperia Tablets have... Browser, Launcher, etc. dont change anything at all. From what ive heard its an ICS bug and our tablet suffers a lot.. Hopefully it will get fixed with jelly bean :cyclops:

Yeah, it happens to me too. First, I thought it was BS Player issue or something since it was only happening when watching videos. But then, I noticed it also happens when I reduce the bright of the screen using Screen Filter. I really hope it gets fixed on JB update because it's the only thing that really annoys me on the tablet. Apart from that and fortunately, I've nothing else to complain about, unlike many others.
i have this if i run live background verry anoying parts off the calendar and social life widget and other widgets glitch thru the screen.
i don't known if you experiencing similar flickering.

It crashed for me also.You have to do the same instructions To make it work that are for gta san andreas.You can go here and go to page 3 i think.It explains what you have to do.I think i had to do that once or twice and then it would work fine.

For me, Deus Ex : The Fall crashed after choosing any Main Menu option. Enabling Android Settings-Developer options-Force GPU rendering allows the game to run properly.
In my case it started to work somewhere between the kk update and some foldermount tinkering. Nice to here about the gpu trick, might come in handy even though it breaks lecturenotes.
