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

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'!

not realy !! i installed it and it run cool and smooth too !!

Well, I used to have it, but I didn't like the fact that it still was at 6.1.A.1.58 while the latest version was .2.45 at the time.
Otherwise, it was pretty good with awesome theme support, way more eye-candy than stock and battery friendly. In other ways, better than stock at everything rly.
Not to mention it's the only choice we have for those of us who dont want to unlock their bootloaders. It's also stock based which means, everything that runs on stock, runs on MIUI.

i agree with u on this. its been 6 months since i bought XS the only custom rom i tried was MIUI and got back to stock in less an hour. Sony's UI is the only thing stopping me from flashing any other rom.
MIUI is a mem hog and it's based on single country's custom build .58 firmware :/
i am using miui from past one month and love it,some what is dont like the sony ui.
Its not all about the ui,, you can have xperia S theme so its not a problem
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Another MIUI user over here!
Simply the best ROM available for Locked BL.
Maybe a bit more heavy on memory, but also much more Graphical and the user options are so much more that you forget about it.
I don't have any problems with performance/memory. And, when think could be related, simply went to Task Manager and clear all apps.
Every week updating new version, without any problems.
i'm using miui too.
perf: u can use init.d tweak to get better performance
theme: use xperia theme! heck, u can even use xperia launcher and still got the miui icons u've set
mem: see perf . it's a little bit takes more memory (diifer with every kernel too, xsx v6 seem takes less memory, but i use adv stock v14 anyway), but i havent experienced performance dropped.
fw: ok, it's based on 1.58. but anyone know what real difference between 2.45, 2.50 and 1.58? and if u have unlocked bootloader, u can flash kernel that based on fw 2.45 or 2.50
and you'll get the attractive themes (icons, status bars, drop down notification, lockscreen, etc), the free desktop theme is kinda cool too and get weekly OTA update (official miui)

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.

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.

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

@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

i meant stock stock.not custom stock. custom stock usually have tweaks and optimizations.main reason to go custom stock instead of sammy stock.am also running ARHD 16 and its smooth.
Okay so i flashed almost all the ICS roms and it all lags on my X10. The speed is there but the animations lag. Like pulling down the notification bar , window animations , screen off animation. They all lag. Can some one tell me how to solve this? Is this a videolag problem or something? I really love the fastness of ICS roms. Im on FeraLab ICS v4 currently!
Hi bro,
first you may need to read this :
http://socialcompare.com/en/comparison/android-versions-comparison
ICS and JB required higher resource than GB,
so, we need to make its ALAP .
Probably you shoul try CM10 from Scrith for comparison.
FYI
but there was a review about this rom and everything went smoothly on the guys phone in the video!!

From what I can tell, none of the ICS ROMS are 100% stable yet. And to get them running smooth will still take a bit of work, tweakings bits and pieces here and there to iron out the kinks. GL

I have my x10 running faster than before on Scritches v3 rom with Amin kernel p6005, if you try it I flashed scritches camera fix as Amin kernel needs the patch. P.s. don't flash the aeros libs or it will lag on that rom and kernel.
I was previously on Zmod7ver3 which is one of the fastest gb roms I've come across. You'll lose cam tho.

I need to ask what does it takes to make SGA-i running stable,lag free and worth keeping.
I tried almost every thing (roms,kernels,tweaks and mods) even CM but the overall performance was not convincing.
So:
-what the ultimate combination of rom and tweaks should I use in order to make 100% use of SGA-i?

Well, there is no best Rom in XDA. Try out different roms. See which ones you like and see their performance.
Memory Wise: partition your SD card and if you want, increase internal memory with a cronmod script.
I'm pretty sure their are different scripts to increase performance and definetly work...
And kernal wise, they can either come with a rom or you can flash it seperatly.

Sell the phone. Put some money on it and buy another phone without a Broadcom chip!
Stock rom without any tweak is Lag free! With pureperformance tweaks its pretty usable. And stock based custom roms we have they are good and stable. CM7 has bugs but performance is top!
But as i understand you want a S3 mini performance from Ace-i which is impossible! So changing your phone is only option left...

yes CM7 has great performance and makes our device even near to higher devices,but right now it is useless, and this was the last solution for me!
I came to a conclusion that whatever we do to this device,no thing changes because it has severe hardware limitations.
So you are right changing it is the only solution but right now I have to keep it because I have no money and the prices in my country are very very very high

My personal Opinion: I use Touchwiz Ressoruction. You can look at the Thread for that in the dev section. It is a nice and smooth rom with the look of S3 (It has Rafael.Baugis Kernal). This is only my opinion. I respect all the other Devs who make amazing Roms, Tweaks and Kernals. :beer:
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda app-developers app
+1 for Touchwiz Ressoruction, currently it's the only stable ROM around, it's very smooth and lag free.
OK guys..soon I will try touchwiz resurrection and give you my feedback
but one last thing, Iam struggling to play youtube flv which I downlowded in my device..can anyone suggest a solution!!
Every stock Rom is stable... Not just touchwiz resurrection.
Want a pure bareboned Rom? Retribution beta 4 extreme bareboned,
The smoothest cm7 Rom I've used is miui.

Hey all,
I've done many a fresh installs for various aosp ROMs and soon enough 2 issues always bug me. 1 being the camera crashes and the only temporary fix is to reboot (wiping dalvik and cache doesn't make a difference) then it'll eventually crash again. 2 is MMS on aosp has never worked
I'm currently using cyanogenmod 12.1s with stock kernel.
I've been inactive on XDA for many months because I just pushed aside those issues and could be bothered clean flashing a new ROM. If you guys could give me any tips it'll be much appreciated.
I know each ROM is different for everyone so no need to tell me all that.

It's simple, install a Sammy rom, like neat or archi 4.3 and use Nova instead of TouchWiz, it's a big difference, plus that you'll have great camera software and working mms. I love aosp, but the camera keeps me from installing one...it will never be stable on our devices, because there is not a official mentainer of CM...sad

you definitely give 4.3 and last nova a try,I use QS JB along with nova,freezed touchwiz and samsung keyboard and deleted a lot of Sammy stuff and now my phone works like a charm.The ram usage is way better than with all touchwiz things,sometimes I get even 500 mb free ram.I also use Fast reboot and Greenify,if you choose nova,give a try to Glim Lite theme package,it is awsome
