[Q] Archos 101 G9 250GB - Slow boot with 4.0.25 - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have since 2 weeks and Arcohs 101 G9 Turbo 1GB RAM 250 Gb. Originally it shipped with 4.0.7 and I did not notice any issues with it. I loaded it with some 100 GB media and apps, including several large games
I made the update to 4.0.25 stock after it;s release, without wipe. Unfortunately I began to have issues:
- HDD seemed to freeze after waking the tablet from sleep / deep sleep. If i launched a large game or browsed gallery the hdd icon will stay on but nothing would happen. If the tablet would go in standby during this waiting it can no longer be waken except by reset (push Power on button for 10 seconds)
- a reboot takes 5 minutes
- disk check from recovery did not find anything
In order to solve this I did a re-flash of 4.0.25 stock with full wipe. Result
- after wipe the tablet boot up quite fast (40 sec)
- after installing again the apps / games (several GB) the boot time increased again to 5 minutes
- still testing to see if the HDD freeze after reboot remains...
I also contacted Archos asking if it is possible to revert to 4.0.7. They answered very promptly... unfortunately by issuing an RMA authorisation.
Any recommendations / experience from forum members? I would like to know I tried everything before sending the tablet to France for replacement (I expect I will be at least one month without it)...
Thank you
Robert

Short update:
I made a fresh format & reflashing of 4.0.25 from recovery and things seem to have improved: boot time is still long (2 minutes) but there were no hdd freezes in the past 24 hours. Will update again in some days.

Unrelated to your question, but how did you install two different launchers for the phone and the station? Sorry for barging in.

[HELP] Sony Tablet S - Not Getting Past Boot Animation

G'day guys,
Having some issues with my Tablet. I had been using it for basic web\email and had zero issues. I was playing a game (which had been played, on and off, for 3+ months) on the device when it froze.
Pressing 3 software buttons (home, back, switch) did not respond. The Volume rocker didn't adjust volume. Pressing Power didn't turn off screen. So I held down Power for 3 seconds. Nothing. Held it down for 5 seconds. Nothing! ... Held it down for 10 seconds and it switched off.
I left it for 2-3 minutes and then turned the tablet on. Just gets stuck on the Sony animated boot screen. Nothing more!
OS 3.0 upgraded to OS 4.0.3 direct from built-in Sony upgrade. Zero issues for months until now.
Stock ROM. Not rooted.
I was hoping to get the data off the internal storage however if it is not possible... then maybe I just need to move on and start fresh! :\
I have a suspicion there is a corruption with something like /cache or something else really simple.
Would be great if anyone is aware of a simple fix without losing data, or a full-proof way to resolve it by doing anything..... Just need a reliable solution...
HELLLLLP!
THANK YOU!
NOTE: I can bypass the boot animation and access the recovery interface.
Cheers guys!
Following the instructions here a few days ago http://www.howtogeek.com/125375/how...kup-without-rooting-or-unlocking-your-device/ (http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/tools-notes.html and http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#win-bundle) I downloaded and installed the bundle as per instructions.
When Sony Tablet S is connected, nothing is displayed. Although, granted, it took a lot of fiddling to get the Samsung to show up (damn USB / Sync / xxx modes for USB connectivity.

System lag after 24hrs of use

I don't know if it's just happening to me, but after upgrading to Android 10 the system really got faster, but after an average of 24 hours of use and especially after loading it 100% again, the whole system and apps seem like start to lock up, you can see a huge difference in the speed at which I use apps and when opening apps, apps get less fluid in the passage of news feeds, sometimes the phone gets to lock up, but you just have to restart phone so that it goes back to fast again.
Is anyone with the same problem?
On Android 9 I don't remember this happening
In short: I need to restart the phone every time I charge it so that it doesn't get stuck
Yes it's happening the same way as you described after upgrading to Android 10.
It seems like there is a RAM memory management OS bug
Yes you need to restart the phone then only it gets to normal state.otherwise keeps lagging.
If you just remove the app from background,I saw No memory is released from RAM(With CPU-Z).must be memory management issue
Same problem
Are you guys on global or EU? I don't have this problem. And I haven't done a factory reset since updating.
Using latest stock OTA for global, btw.
I am on EU version for me uninstalling chrome to factory fixed this issue I am running for 60h and no slow downs
Old post but can confirm disabling built in Chrome solved the problem for now.

Lag spikes every 3 seconds

Hello guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy A10 and since today that I'm having an issue with it. Every 3 seconds there's a lag spike in the operating system only. In apps its completely normal no lags at all. For example if I continually flick the notification bar up and down i get a lag spike every 3 seconds every time. It happens the same with the navigation buttons on the bottom, keyboard, basically anything related to the os. But in apps I dont have this issue. I think it all started when I plugged in the charger and i got a warning that was water on it, but there wasnt any water that warning sometimes pops up when the cable slips a little bit and gets halfway attached. I restarted the phone multiple times, it seems fine on boot but quickly goes to the same problem. The phone is not rooted, it's original firmware and all. Can anyone help me out here?
@crazyon3
Try this
Uninstall apps which haven't used in last 30 days. No need to worry, you can always install back when required.
Delete all images and videos of WhatsApp and similar which are just forwards. It will be a big chunk usually.
Move all personal pics and videos to cloud (Google Drive). Enable auto backup. Delete device copies for > 1 week old files.
Run SDmaid app. Uninstall it after that.
