scrolling problem in conversations? low fps. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi. i don't know if how did i actually have this problem or maybe everybody has the same.
it is with my messaging. when opening a conversation ( received and sent items ) with a lot of messages to scroll up and down, it is not smooth.
when i scroll down or up a conversation, it is just slow and lags very much. it's like the fps dropped.
i have to enable 2d acceleration to make it smooth and better fps.
i experienced this only in conversations.
i already did a full wipe before flashing again and still the problem is here
I do not know if it is like this already or this just happened after watching an mkv video through BSPlayer.
I'm currently using stock 4.1.2 Poland ROM.
do you guys experience this as well???
please help me.

I have the same problem. Everything else about this phone is really smooth except messaging. Maybe a problem with touchwiz? I'm not sure but it is a little annoying. I was hoping Jellybean would fix it but it's still laggy.

i think its where force gpu acceleration comes into play..

I have this problem too on 4.1.2, so i replaced the message apk from 4.1.1 J5 and its smooth again

[Q] WhatsApp lag on JB XXLIB

After some searching I could find a question about this, but some people told me via PM they were having exact same behaviour...
When using whatsapp, everytime you open/close the keyboard in a conversation it lags BADLY, like this, in big words. Tried several keyboards, full wipe, un-install - reinstall of the app and keyboards... None worked.
Running now Stock Deodexed XXLIB on every kernel (tried almost every, just in case...).
Can anyone else reproduce this? Can someone maybe tell me they are not having this, and if posible, attach a video of how does their WhatsApp behave there? (I'll try to record one on how it behaves for me).
I already reported this behaviour to WhatsApp as I suspect is their problem, but I use it like 1h a day so it's kinda annoying... Any ideas or help?
PS: Just adding I've tried tick/untick on GPU rendering and HW overlay and posible combinations of both
Thanks for kindness!
WhatsApp lag on JB XXLIB
Just t confirm all of that you're talking about.
Stock JB rom,or custom latest JB rom,no luck,always stutters when openig chat window and preparing to write a message.
Meanwhile i've gone for CM10,flashed Siyah 1.6.3 on top of it,and I don't have any of those problems anymore
And thank you for noticing that "little stuff lag/stutter",and if you're to much anoyed with it,like I was,make you're move towards CM10 :
It doesn't lag for me while opening/closing keyboard, but it lags badly on list scrolls, both WhatsApp contact list and conversation window. Like 10 fps or less. So annoying.
I am on latest WanamLite ROM, which based on sammy XXLIB.

So it's not present in CM10? I rolled back from CM10 because I had some problems with whatsapp LOL So if they are no longer present I may go back home then...
Sad having 100 readers and no reply though, maybe none of them had this issue or never used whatsapp?

I have the same issue - using CM10.1 on i9300, anyone got an update to fix this?

youtube app (youtube in general long buffering freezes and plays)

Hi all,
Not sure if anyone else getting this problem.
My youtube seems to be taking very long to buffer on HQ it plays a bit freezes and so fourth and this is on WiFi close to the router source. I'm running the normal 407 rom it worked before fine when I was on DSC but shouldn't the oellh rom be similar because it is basically stock?
I'm assuming there could be a fix within the build.prop but i'm not so smart as to know what to change/add and seeing that I don't know what i'm doing in there I don't wanna mess around. If anyone knows or has the same issue n knows of a fix it would be much appreciated.
Youtube app just sucks.. The videos on worldstarhiphop play better than youtube
Which is a shame!

[Q] Lag when zooming pictures in galary.

I had a galaxy s3 which was smooth when zooming thru the pictures in the gallery.
Now i got another galaxy s3 , with OMEGA V33.2 Rom , along with siyah 1.8.
What is causing this thing ? I also removed all unwanted bloatware.
Thx
I too noticed the Lag when zooming pictures.The lag started after I updated to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean
On 4.1.2 no such issue.
Wait for the update to come out.

The gallery on 4.1.1 (Touchwiz) is bugged, black bars and weird stuff, they fixed it in 4.1.2 by bringing the note 2 gallery.
So no it isn't a core android issue, just fixed by samsung in their 4.1.2 leak.
Confirm that 4.1.2 works perfect.

Same here, but it only happens with the stock gallery, if you are still on 4.1.1 you can install the note 2 gallery app and it should smoothen things out until 4.1.2 is released.

I doubt it will be fixed. It seems like Samsung ignores the simplest things on a phone. Contacts/Dialer that is slow to load, messaging app that refreshes (when you can see the phone numbers before your contacts names load up), laggy gallery. Ex dialer is a fine solution for contacts. But the slowness of the gallery app when opening it after taking a picture is quite poor. The gallery app should open when the camera is open, or at least stay in memory. Seeing the phone say LOADING for 2-3 seconds when other phones are instant is a shame lol.

Couldn't agree more.
All basic things are a mess in this cell.
Gallery lag
Yesterday i installed the stock 4.1.2 rom from kies (i am not rooted) and the whole phone seems laggier, especially the new gallery app it is awfull, it lags all the time even when it is allready opened in the backgroung. the pinch to zoom is almost unresponsive, too laggy.
Should i make a hard (factory ) reset , because some people say that the 4.1.2 is very fast. I bought the s3 I9300 two weeks ago and it had 4.1.1 which felt not that fast (and coming from iphone 4s a bit dissapointed) but for sure better than th 4.1.2. Suggestions please !!!
It is a piece of ****. Just use QuickPic

[Q] Galaxy Tab Youtube lag

When I first bought the Galaxy tab 10.1, I believe it was on honeycomb. I usually use it for youtube and games. Once I updated it to ice cream sandwich, whenever i watched youtube videos it always lags and never runs smoothly like it used to. I tried fixing it by factory resetting it but it would still constantly lag. Would downgrading back to honeycomb ?

I think that is your only choice, or flash a custom ROM, that's a known issue that youtube starts lagging and such on the ICS built, there went alot things wrong when samsung updated their built... it screxs things up alot
Hi,

I am totaly suprised is youtube lag espcially when it is an HD.

By the way, rooting and installing custom roms don't help at all. I've tried multiple custom roms including cm9, cm10, aokp, and others and they all have youtube lag. This is the ONLY problem I have with gtab 10.1 and hope there is a way to fix this somehow.....

Ok, I have tried this video and there is no lag on my device. Played in the App and in the Dolphin browser in both SD and HD, though in HD the video paused a few times due to it buffering as my internet connection is only 1.8mb/s
I wiped my device completely (wiped data/cache/dalvik) using CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 to install my roms. I was previously on Tasks650 ICS Rom. Used Titanium backup only to restore apps and app data, not system data. Also using SetCPU to processor to 200/1200Mhz with the governor set to interactive. All settings are default in the Yoda 2.4 Kernel/Fourth Bar Revolution rom except for having Force GPU rendering enabled.
I've pretty much gotten rid of lag on my tab.
Im on a jb cm based rom
I have it overclocked to 1.6(a1 kernel) and have a governer that will get to that speed fast
Have force 2d gpu rendering unchecked
And now it will only lag if I bring up the notification bar or tap on the video.

Are you sure? Could you guys try that video above on your tablet AND your computer to compare if there DEFINITELY is no lag? No offence, but some people don't notice stutters and lags as much as some other people because not everyone is the same. iPad users are keen to smoothness of course so if there is a SLIGHT lag, they notice, but some people (not all) who have been using Android only for years don't notice as much. I don't know about you guys, so if you do think you are very keen on smoothness, please do tell me and I will try your setups for my galaxy tab (as I just finished restoring everything on mine and set up perfect so that I don't want to do it all over again, and also sometimes the CWM backup doesn't work properly for me).
Also, I thought overclocking to 1.6ghz would drain the battery really fast, no? I've never overclocked my tablet above 1.4ghz.
Thanks.

Same for me I believe. I've tried every single configuration I could (almost every single ICS and JB rome w/ A1 or Yoda's kernel w/ over clock w/ changing developer setting) but I ALWAYS have the lag if I use the test video I mentioned above..
One thing that's very odd is that MOVIE TRAILERS on Youtube app do not stutter or lag AT ALL. They are PERFECTLY smooth in HD. Also when you access the movie trailers from Google Play store's movie section, they are all SMOOTH as well. But other videos still have lag (how much lag depends on videos) if I go back to those..
Maybe someone can figure out a cause of this problem from above?
many thanks for your response, experience and test.
I am happy because I am not alone, with same problem to youtube HD stutter and lagly.
But after your all reply for now isn't possible to find a good and reliable solution.
You thinks is a bug to ICS and youtube ?
Thank you

I tried it again on both Tab 10.1 and 2 laptops (windows7 and Ubuntu), no lag in either app or browser. Did you factory reset and wipe all cache and data before installing the roms and kernels? Tried it with Dolphin browser? You could try it with a fresh rom install without restoreing any data, perhaps? Other than that I don't know what else to suggest.

Thanks for your help.
I have always wipe data, cache, dalvik cache, and battery stat before installing any rom, but do you also do SD card partition or something to wipe your storage as well? I've never wiped my storage since Honeycomb.
I'm not sure if that's going to help or not..and not sure what is the best way to do this..

Hello,
I emailed Samsung few days ago, and they replied, but he completely misunderstood my problem please read the email messages below. Thanks.
I dont know why you understood my problem as Adobe Flash problem.
IT IS NOT.
Im talking about HTML5 videos, in the official YouTube APP, and Netflix App. And also MOBILE YouTube website in the browser.
I dont care about Flash. I dont want it at all.
I want these mobile videos (HTML5) to be working as expected, just like it used to be in Honeycomb.
Please dont say that its a hardware limitation, as my crappy Chinese single core tablet with ICS plays HD YouTube videos without any problem. And please dont say that its the problem with the app, as its not just YouTube app. The lag/stutter also happens in Netflix and TED.
Please send this to the software department and other departments as well, as many people are having this problem. Just read the links I included in my previous message. There are 5 forum threads and counting.
I believe in Samsung.
Thanks,

Dear ****,
Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.
We understand that you have an issue with flash videos on your TAB.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Beginning August 15th we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August. ............................................

Hi,
First of all, I couldn't find VIDEO section while choosing symptoms on this webpage, so I had to choose this one. This problem is actually a VIDEO PLAYBACK ISSUE. Please forward this to the correct department for me.
So since Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android 4.0 update, YouTube HD and Netflix HD videos have been lagging and stuttering really bad, especially music concert videos or game videos like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2YJggBVdeI
Some videos play fine, but most of them lag and stutter a lot and are choppy. I'm talking about HD ones.
Please check out these forum threads so that you will know a LOT of users are having this problem, and it's NOT a matter of factory resetting.

Note that one of the links is for Galaxy Tab 8.9, as it is basically the same except for the screen size.
Please see all the links, and see that many people are having this issue of video playback after ICS upgrade. It's not a hardware limitation. In Honeycomb, they played fine. And not to mention, a Chinese junk ICS tablet I have has a single core processor and it plays same videos perfectly smooth.
PLEASE let other people at Samsung know this problem, and PLEASE, PLEASE release a small update that fixes this problem. I'm NOT asking for a Jelly bean update or any other future Android version updates. I'm asking for a bug fix that's very important.
Please consider it.
Thank you so much,

Hotspot issues are sadly a major issue while the NFC can be fixed using a file called NFC Fix.zip in the paranoid android forum. And to make the rom seem faster try editing the dev options and make windows transition 0.5x
thanks, ill give it a try, been trying all these but havnt really made a difference. thanks for the advice!
Bump?
