Messaging - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
I am struggling to find some info regarding the stock messaging app. Does this app lag scrolling up and down through conversations? This is the problem I have, you can see the screen tearing while you scroll slowly up and down, which is horrible and no matter if I try to do a factory reset (using kies or flashing firmware with odin) the issue will not get fixed. I think Jellybean has broken this app.
Does everyone think the same? I am 90 percent sure that this did not happen on ICS? please heeelllpp

You have to use another app. The stock one is laggy and long to open. Like the dialer.

So what, you got a problem with that? tell me a reason why not to post it on general. this does not involve any rom, apps or anything specific just the phone itself.

yes, I do. The reason is that posting questions in general is against the rules, and people who understand what Q&A stands for post questions here.

Well go and complain to moderators then because I have always used general sections for anything else not related to dev or bug reporting and never had a problem..
Now go and find something useful to do instead of crying mama..god.

I just wanted to discuss the issue regarding the ics and jellybean messaging.

I understand.
I do agree that the ICS messaging works faster than that of JB's. It is a stock thing, so I believe there is no fix yet? Tsk

So you did notice the ics app faster and smoother. I was really confused because there were 2 updates and I couldn't find out which one messed it up. I don't think there is a fix yet. I only asked Samsung and they told me to call the S3 support but I didn't.
I do believe there are going to be more updates for the S3 even another version of Android which hopefully will fix it. I did ask a few people but theu said their messaging app worked fine but I think they didn't notice what I meant or they wouldn't care too much.

You can install jkays framework on stock odexed Rom and then with his deluxe settings app (paid) you can lock dialler and contacts in memory,.......regarding the tearing whilst scrolling, this nearly always happens when you have an accumulation of too many messages I keep my inbox pretty clean and never experience any tearing

Yeah whatever..you have done your job won a trophy and all. That's what moderators are here for. If you don't have anything useful to post then don't post your trolling messages.
Slaphead: I am talking about a few mesaages not a huge list; I have tried a lot of things which will never work. Unfortunately have to live with it until Samsung releases an update I think they must be aware of this? I wonder if any of the developers around here knows what is the issue and if anyone has implemented a fix on any other roms.

Try this...go developer options and check "force gpu rendering"

and that's why xda is the way it is..noobs don't read the rules

Don't post in dev sections if you need help with something, especially if no-one can understand what your question is or how the can help. Ask in Q&A, you're far more likely to get help there.
If you mean that "3g" does not really work on your device and nothing happens when you try loading a website, i can tell you it IS actually that slow. but JieeHD is right, please post questions in Q&A...
which leads me to one question: how the hell is he able to do his first (!!) post in dev section?! when i joined, there still was some 10-posts-rule...

Yeah its a good rule, keeps the threads cleaner IMO. I know there is possibly users out there that have some useful info to share but its rare. I think we need to ask a mod what's going on, I'll ask pulser when I get the chance.
Sent from my Hero using XDA Premium App
yeah definately does ;D but i can remember when i first rooted and installed elelinux (it was 0.2 back then ) i noticed some issues but was unable to report them.. and it took until 0.5 when someone noticed and ele fixed.. i think in special situations there should be possibilities to send some pm to a mod , would help to find bugs earlier... especially new users do alot play around and maybe find something we would never have tried?
thank you for asking, keep me up to date would be interested, maybe this is another strange xda-premium thing? were you able to instantly post in dev section with your xda pro app?

Hey, I'm from the Legend forums, just browsing through, when I noticed this thread.
1) DUDE WTF
2) Yeah, in our forum, there was one instance of a guy with 1 post posting in our NewSense thread. I was confuzzled.
3) I think the OP is wonder if the 3G data usage is somehow connected to the H icon that appears when data is being used. Maybe, maybe not.
Either way, NOOB.

Tbh, as I've heard in IRC, XDA is a mess. Pointless threads popping up all over the place, I think a bit more control is needed Tbh.

Maybe that's why they opened up that Moderator Application announcement I saw a week back.
Hmmm.. I didn't see that, got a link?
Sent from my Hero using XDA Premium App
Although I didn't look hard, I'm not sure where it went. I know it caught my attention the first time because it was a general announcement.
But then after googling the terms in the custom search, there was a moderator opening going on about a year ago today. So maybe that got dug up and screwed over? Anyway, I wasn't interested so I barely looked at the date. Will keep my eyes open though!
FOUND IT RIGHT AFTER I POSTED THIS D:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=263
hehe mod announcement already closed again but this doesnt answer how he could make 1st post in dev sections, when i tried having 7 posts it still said "youve got to have at least 10" and denied posting in here...
as from obvious knowledge and status, he's not a mod or admin either. strange. did you find out anything JieeHD?

Wrong bootloader?

I recently rooted my phone, and it seems like I rooted with the international boot/kernel. When the phone turns on, it now shows the i9100 instead of 777. I have MIUI on the phone, calls and MMS and texts are working find. But because of the international thing, my back and search button won't work.
How can I fix this problem?
Why do people insist on coming to these forums and just download whatever catches their fancy without reading first? I'm really starting to sympathize with Miami_son. Everything you need to know is in the stickies in the general forum. Please take the time to read first this time.

Scrollable widgets in ics sluggish

For me the scrollable widgets in ics are pretty laggy. In particular the Agenda and Social hub widgets. If you scroll trough them, it doesn't go as fluent as in normal apps and is actually pretty laggy. Can anybody say whether this is normal behavior or not? I've done multiple wipes and re flashes but this behavior stays the same. I'm on the stock ICS rom

are they so laggy they warrant two threads?

Actually, I have the same issues with both my phones... the scrollable widgets (Pure Messenger, Pure News, and Pure Calendar Widget) don't respond over 50% of the time... this is using Slim ICS on both a Samsung Galaxy S (I9000M) and a Samsung Galaxy SII

because if youd bothered to read up on anything you would see that scrolling in general on ics isnt as good as it is on gb. Making two exactly the same threads asking if it is normal is a bit pointless.
But hey, try making a 3rd thread asking the same question. Maybe it will have changed

I have yet to find meaningful information on scrollable widget issues in ICS. I'm not condonining the OP's multiple thread creation, but this is one of the top Google results related to the issues, which indicates there isn't a whole lot out there.
Can you please point to some relevant threads? From what I have read, there are absolutely no issues with scrollable widgets and ICS, and that all apps have all been properly patched already.
Now I know this isn't the case, because neither of my phones are working properly... it's not a ROM issue because both are flashed from scratch.
My only guess is that it's a launcher (Go Launcher) + app (Pure Widgets...) issue.
Can anyone confirm? A few comments/reviews on the Pure Widgets apps on the Google Play Store seem to agree with me.
As a follow-up, I have found out that the issue is due to Go Launcher... I tried the latest beta version (v3.00 beta 1) and the issues disappeared!

Kies

Why cant i update via kies? It says my device does not support it.
I'm a noob, so please understand... xD
ok.....so i was being nice in your other thread.....
first of all, remove the ?signature? you have there.... calling yourself a noob does not excuse you from searching
which leads me to the second point.....
you agreed to a set of rules when you signed up to become a member of these forums...you should re-read those rules before you create another thread....
I have been searching and it keeps saying no results. I was just hoping someone had the same issue and found an answeer.

You both need to tone down a bit, please.
Generally speaking, do search in the thread first, say you're running AOKP ROM, then search within that AOKP thread for answer first. If generic issue like OP stated, search within this forum, i777. Then expand the search to XDA site and finally Google.
To OP, my suggestion, pls do provide more info if you want more useful help.
Saying "why kies stop working on my device" getting you nowhere since we don't know which ROM you're on, what made you say so, ......

It's too late but once again, for other readers, pls stop using zedomax thingy, seriously.
When you said "it doesn't work", how so?
+ Can't connect to PC? or
+ successfully connected but not getting the update?
Each person, each case is different.
P.S. "i have another post with a-lot more information on what is happening" is totally useless, next time post related info within the OP. No one will search your "another post" for info.
Thanks for the heads up. I cand do everything normally, but it says your device does not support updating via kies. I want sure if it was csc settings or what.

Cyanogen nightly bug!

I've been having this issue for a while (I think I noticed it from the 20140416 nightly, not sure though). I experience random crashes here and there (everything will freeze and then the UI will "reset" itself), but they mainly happen when I try to pull down the notifications bar after unlocking my phone. It's pathetic that this happens, as I'm sure it's not a big deal to fix!!!
If this is in the wrong thread than please move to the correct section. As I'm a new user here, I can't post in the development section, unfortunately.
The first thing you should do is whipe your phone. Have you done this?
Probably why it's a nightly...

You declared that its easy to fix. So it seems that you have the knowledge to fix it, otherwise you wouldnt know that.
Anyways, dont expect a serious answer if you do several mistakes. First, posts like yours dont belong into the general section. They either belong into the respective rom thread or maybe Q&A. And even if you post there, none of the CM devs will ever read it. They avoid xda.
Then you also brag about a bug in a nightly. Guess what, nightlies are not supported. They are automatically generated builds. A bug report will be ignored (even if you use cm's bug tracker called jira). I can add more mistakes you did if you want.
