Hello!
Hope this has not been answered before... Anyways my GS3 i9300 has a serious problem when typing a whatsapp message. In all of the other apps the keyboard is fast and responsive as it always has been but since a couple months it started to have very severe lags while typing within Whatsapp. If i want the keyboard to process correctly the word i have to slow down my typing which is becoming very annoying and the problem is somehow getting worse. I am running CyanogenMod 10.1. I have tryied to re install both applications and maybe for a couple days after reinstalling things get a little better; but no real and continuous improvement. I kill always all my background running apps and i clear my RAM every day... Any suggestions? Thanks a lot for any kind of help!!

Just a quick note to point out that I'm having the same exact issue, in the same environment (cyanogen 10.1, swiftkey, whatsapp). As you stated in every other app swiftkey works just fine.. It's just with whatsapp.. No one else guys? What can we do?

It's a paid app... have you asked the developer? Email them: [email protected]
Having the exact same problem here, even Overclocking doesn't increase responsiveness. Any solution by now?

Hey guys, my Hero just started lagging with FroydVillain 16.xx version. First of all I thought this was just too many programs, or something like that, so I decided to wipe my phone and install new CM version. But then I got error for wipine an ext. I was suggested try wipe ext via ADB, but nothing happend neither. So I just installed the ROM anyway.
Everything was working, but after couple days it started lagging again. The most sensible feeling with SMS's. Then I'm opening new SMS from notification's bar, it takes forever to show me the text. The same with conversations list in Message application. There is also a lag while typing (AnySoftKeyboard with Lithuanian Keyboard).
The same happend today after reinstalling FroydVillain 17.2 with new RA_Hero 17 recovery. Installion was made yesterday. Now I have ~100 SMS's, if it has anything in common.
Any ideas, guys?
This is my apps' list: appbrain.com/user/karolism/
Well for me if I don't restart my phone every few days it slows down, are you overclocked? if not it might help, also some applications might not close properly and drain battery and other resources and lastly the Hero was built with old technology when it was new (I read this somewhere a while after I got my phone but I could be wrong).
Thank you for the reply. Could you tell me more about overclocking? I'm new at this.

or both as in i use, just read and use the search function and you'll be a pro before you know it
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?
hello,
i have searched on web about this subject but no accurate solution found. my problem is that when i hit contacts, it opens after 3-4 secs. then it opens instantly. after browsing web or facebook or something different, then it waits 3-4 secs again to enter contacts. it happens at all roms i have tried (turkbey, agabey, omega, anonorom, md, crdroid, cyanogenmod, viking). stock rom has the same lag. the situation continues when i hit message or dailer. it is not related with the animation speed i guess. older samsung mobiles have faster response (ace, wonder or sii). thisi is annoying.
some lags occur while browsing facebook (not too much but sensing).
anyone know how to get rid of this problem?
best regards
Dialer lag on Cyanogenmod...............No. Stock Contacts app being slow has been pointed out numerous times. It is being killed from ram to make room for other apps. Either use Exdialer which can be kept in memory, Purchase JKAY Deluxe settings, or accept the slowness.

The problem is because the Contact and Phone aps are getting killed off from the memory after sometime.
1) use a third party app like exDilaler.
2) Install jKay's framework and white list Contacts and Dialer. This will lock the app in memory.
Just download exdialer from play store.
I think U have installed some task manager/killer which kills the running apps after some time.
And due to which there is a delay in contacts opening.
Add this app not to kill in settings !
Thread moved to proper forum.

thanks for answers,
first of all; i do not use any app killer programs. i can understand that the phone is killing app to open room on ram for other apps. what about galaxy s2? i tried opening contacts on this device many times and it is quite fast in every time. if i saw same problem on lower models i would accept that lag for contacts. but i do not understand how s2 could kept it in ram and why s3 could not. and it is laggy when browsing contacts. not too much but you can see it.

Same problem here, contacts opening to slow for normal use, >5 sec. running latest omega rom.
I tried different roms, also to restore contacts from kies but its the same. >5 sec.

you are not alone and a search would have helped
New to this forum and seeking some help(obviously)
Had this phone for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I just have one problem with it.
In the stock messaging app, Kik, and a couple of other apps, my keyboard will occasionally freeze. Android keyboard, LG keyboard, Swype... They all do it.
But I can still type on it, it just won't show me a "live-shot" of what I'm typing. When I press the back button(hides keyboard), all the text that I typed would show up. For example, if I type/swype "I like cake", it won't show anything in the text field until I hide/exit out of the keyboard. Then it all the text shows up at once.
I've tried everything I know of. I've done a factory reset on the phone, I've disabled keyboards, I've uninstalled apps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! This isn't a huge pain because a restart temporarily fixes it, and this phone only takes like 45 seconds to reboot. It's just annoying since it happens several times a day.

Never happened to me....Are you stock, rooted, unlocked....if so what ROM/kernel are you running. It helps when you post as much information as possible so we might be able to determine if its something we can help with. That happened to me on my old Infuse ALOT, but i was flashing multiple ROM a day just playing around....

this is strange I have had no issues regarding this whether I was stock or otherwise. If you got it from best buy take it back and get another, I have gone through 3 LGOG until I found one that didnt have strange issues. But I also got mine early. Maybe some of the senior members have had this issue. Good Luck
Thanks for the replies. I'm not rooted and I've installed all the updates they've sent out so far. I've looked online and I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem...
I got it from AT&T(They matched Best Buy's price for me!) and I have to go there in about a week to get a credit on my bill, so I'll just ask them to try to figure out what's going on.

Swap that out when you go. Good luck !
I fixed it. Apparently one of the few apps that I did not uninstall was causing the problem. Tesla LED(Flashlight app) was causing the keyboard to freeze. I have no idea why... That app has nothing to do with the keyboard. But I uninstalled it, installed another flashlight app and haven't had a problem since Tuesday night.

Hahaha, no problem, man! I installed Tiny Flashlight + LED and added the widget to my home screen. So now all I need to do is tap the widget and the flashlight turns on.
Ya, so I havent downloaded any flashlight app, yet fairly frequently, in messaging, web browsing, and the like, my keyboard stops displaying input (sometimes even gestures in web browsing, such as swiping to move around the screen freeze too). The words and other things i change, such as where in a web page it is focused does take effect after hitting the menu key on the phone. Typing also seems to work regularly in landscape, but im not used to turning it every time i type and id rather not get used to it. It happens with the Android keyboard as well as the LG one, and might be related to the similiar freezing the google voice and swype brought, but im fairly positive i completely uninstalled those, so idk...

Hey guys I just notice this as well fresh from the att store, although I've only seen it only once. So I'm 100% sure it's not due to rooting/bootloader unlocked. My suspicion is some sort of memory leak in the LG keyboard service (it's loaded as well even though you're using android OS). I clear both keyboard data and reboot, never happened anymore since then.

Hi!
I am using Ubuntu Touch (15.04) Build 57 on my nexus 4.
Im using Ubuntu touch since a couple of weeks now but there is one thing that is really annoying. There is an immense lag when swiping from the welcome screen. Sometimes it takes 3-4 seconds until something happens. I noticed that this is most of the time when the standard browser app is running.... is this a known problem?
I tested with many apps running (Camera, Contacts, Phoneapp, Email App Dekko, Message App, System Settings, etc....) except the browser - the phone is fast and the experience is nice, but as soon as the browser is runnning, the phone is barely usable.... and really slow. The browser itself is okay when it is running... Very Strange...
Does anyone has suggestions what i can do? Is there an alternative browser i can test?
Thanks a ton for helping!

Hi,
There's no other browser which you can use (except one which hasn't seen any updates for a couple of months). That's indeed an interesting observation. Would you mind creating a bug report here? https://bugs.launchpad.net/webbrowser-app
Hi! thanks - yes i reported the bug - hopefully someone will help me solve this - it's nearly unusable like this...
@zwenson69 Thank you for the bug report.
