1. unable to change fonts installed manually apart from system ones.
2. ram usage is very higher i.e.,
before memory is cleared after memory is cleared
1. 750MB 730MB
2. 680MB 665MB
like that ! heavy ram used
3. phone heating up very often
1. try replace /system/fonts
2. it is normal, even you killed all apps , RAM will get back full in little time so don't bother , it is the NATURAL of the Android system , can't be helped
3. check out if some background applications using lots CPU resources or were you playing game or something heavy ? or it was standing by and heat up as well ?
case 1 , if you were doing something , then it is normal
case 2, consider background applications also try a clean ROM see if it helps
Pre-cleaned rom or any rom cleaned with rom cleaner is a really good start, you'll obviously see the difference.
Are you using AOSP or Sammy based rom?? I guess Sammy as you've mentioned the FlipFont thing. Anyway, Samsung roms have been known for having problems managing ram memory. Just try another rom, like Foxhound. It has a (quite good) ram management and it's quite fast. Also, as is sammy based you will not face problems AOSP based roms have (bluetooth not working properly, exynos' gpu not performing as it should, excessive battery drain and so on)

In general cleaned & optimized sammy rom is the best choice for compatibility and performance.

ram usage is lighter on CM 10.1 and even on sammy 4.1.2 ..but only sammy 4.2.1 leaked rom is having this problem I guess !!
can you be a bit more specific about replacing system/fonts? ? Please...
I've tried sammy leaked 4.2.1 (I guess, the latest one) and I've had some slowdowns and ram problems. I really recommend you using a xxemb5 android 4.1.2 based rom or later (I've tried so far Foxhound -as I mentioned before- crDroid, XperianZe and UltimaRom; and all of them performed quite better than 4.2.1).
In conclussion, don't use leaked beta roms if you expect nice performance and a bug-free rom. Official versions are the only ones that provide it.

The problem with CM10.1 is that the GPU performs soooo bad on it due to Samsung's reluctance of releasing exynos' source, so basically you get an underperfoming S3. And if you have an S3, I don't think you want it to perform badly, do you??

well , i never use any application to change font , so in my case , you MUST have to be ROOTED first otherwise none of my words help you.
use something like Root Explorer , go to /system/fonts , all the fonts are contained in there , so only thing you have to do is replace these files.
i am not sure , but i would like to remind you about permissions
also you can use flashable ZIP file via recovery directly overwirte these files which is much easier and simpler, at least that's how i do it.
You could also use FlipFonts (an apk with the font; there are tons in google play) and change them in (Settings>display>font type) or, if rooted (and I suppose you're) use font changer. Get it from google play and it'll show you a lot of fonts for free. Just select one and click install and it'll do the rest.

I have just bought an S3 and I am actually quite disappointed in it's performance.
I have an S2 (Running stock ICS) and my S3 (Running stock JB) is quite noticeably slower, with terrible lag.
I am just wondering if this is normal, surely this should out perform an S2?
The 2 main area where it is considerably slower is opening up my contacts and MMS app.
From clicking the contacts icon it takes about 2 seconds to actually load the contacts, and the MMS app takes about the same time to load.
Also when opening my app drawer it is buggy and laggy when scrolling through.
I notice that I also have little to no free RAM, yes I know how android works and how it utilises RAM but it doesn't seem right to me.
Anyone else having this problem?
I'm also running JB which should be smoother than ICS!
The firmware version I'm using is XXDLJ4
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
you are either doing something wrong or holding a faulty handset, apart from the delay in opening contacts app after heavy usage, s3 will absolutely smoke s2.

The screen scrolling is fine, it's nice and smooth. It's the opening up of contacts, phone and MMS that is really slow.
I've got the latest UK JB update so it should be a lot snappier, in my opinion.
And it's definitely a S3, no doubt there. Yup it was slow right from the get go.
It's the crazy high RAM use that is annoying the hell out of me
Oh, Then go to developer options and select background process limit to 4.That should help, but if you are freaking out about the RAM, then don't cause that's how android uses the ram.
I am currently Using Liquid smooth ROM (AOSP) . I have no contacts or phone lag. Use it if you like AOSP
Use an ASOP or miui Rom! JB onS3 is good but Sammy needs to improve.

yes your s3 should blow your s2 away and NO you shouldn't have to tweak or remove apps, live wallpaper etc.
First try a factory reset...best and simplest advice for performance issues.
Then, and only then should you need to try to find out what apps or settings are causing problems (to be honest no settings should retard performance that badly).
Then...and its a longer shot is a faulty rom installation which a reset won't fix. In that case you'll need to reflash DLJ4 from a reliable source, here on XDA, samfirmware, checkfus etc.
If still problems then your issues are hardware related and you need to visit your provider who'll have access to a maintenance centre, or even samsung themselves...assuming you're still running stock. If not you need to use a guide to restore your phone status to unmodified and a flash a stock rom first.
Good luck

Mine is REALLY fast. More responsive than ics for sure.
Full wipe, stock and..
That's it
Also loading a list with 50 or 100 contacts and some having photos can not be immediate unless its already in the cache..
Definetly do a factory reset, usually fixes most of your problems.
If its being all sluggish i would suggest running "Paranoid Android [ROM]" on it, which is amazing. Or if your looking for something lightweight go, "SuperNexus".
Either way, also go to " settings > dev options " and then change all the Animation Scale (From 1x) to 0.5x it will make the animations faster.
Your phone is not faulty.
The stock contacts and sms app made by samsung are too heavy and indeed open very slow. You should try exDialer or jelly bean sms app which can be found on Play store.

I only notice slowness with power saving mode enabled. Make sure its not and it should. I would use roms as close to stock as possible, IMO. Flashing and using aosp amd miui like others have stated will probably cause more niggly bits of annoyance then rectify current issues youd only replace them with new ones. Unless of course you have a rom addiction and flash every second day like me

No problems here, but have changed a lot.
Disabled S Voice, froze all Samsung applications. Same with services like remote controls, tracking etc. Deleted bin/kiesexe since I never use KIES and the extra ram is handy to have (ROM cooks, here is an idea, ask users if they want KIES on install, if not delete it)!.
Install a good kernel and try running a SQL optimization script to speed up databases. Lastly don't touch supercharger etc to get more free ram (that is wasted ram). It'll slow down Contracts and the Dialer since it removes them from ram. They are loaded at startup for a reason.
Also lastly, turn off unneeded Startups
You should be able to find a list of unneeded services and tasks, somewhere on the forum
You'll understand why, when you look at the list of unneeded bloatware, services etc running, why it is slow. shame on Samsung.

You could try using swap on your memory card. You would need to format and create a new swap partition on your memory card (never on internal memory!) and use a custom kernel that supports swap. Eg. Yank

You could try boeffla kernel which provides zram (fast in memory swap) this along with greenify will provide enough free ram to enable much better multitasking

This issue has been discussed over and over again. I recently posted my opinion in an other thread. Anyways, i am pasting my response here, so that you can read what i have done with my phone to improve multitasking.
The truth is that although the stock touchwiz roms offer stuff like multi-window, they are really REALLY laggy in my opinion. I once decided to flash a cm10.1 (aosp) based rom. I haven't regretted since. I felt as if i had a completely new phone. I suggest you try such a rom. you wont regret it.
Also, there are some apps that allow you to freeze background processes. I use Rom Toolbox pro for example and i have frozen many background apps so I've reduced the amount of ram being used. Search on xda, there is a thread about which backgroung services are safe to be frozen.
Also, use greenify. Greenify stops apps from running in the background when you dont need them. Maps for example keep running in the background consuming 20mb for no reason. Greenify such apps so that they consume your ram only when you need them to do so.
Plus, change your LMK settings. The Low Memory Killer is an android service that kills apps when the amount of ram falls beneath a limit. Use an app such as Rom Toolbox to lower your limits so that apps don't get closed so often.
Finally, try zram with the appropriate settings. I use Googy-Max kernel which has bult-in zram support. I use 600mb of zram with 80% swappiness.
Having these things altered i can run at least 5 apps simultaneously without any problems. For example i run facebook and messenger along with whatsapp and skype. When i open the browser to search for something, none of the other apps gets closed.
Ofcourse if you try to run many apps, you may experience app-closing or lags. But remember, the key, is to close apps that you dont need.
I'm running B 0.8.4 Rom by BlaY0 on my HTC Legend for so long.
It is a very good Rom with no problem at all.
I want to change it to Android 4 ! but there are plenty of them here, each of them has some issues,
Could you please introduce the best STABLE Rom which its Android version is 4 or upper for HTC Legend?
Thank you in advance
I'm using Zeubea's CM10 rom (4.1.2). It's pretty stable and works great, I almost never have problems. Not sure if it's the best or most stable JB rom for Legend though. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33684845
That said it is a big rom so you may need to prune some useless system apps. There are lots that are just junk, I deleted 20-30 apps haha. Lots of room now and runs much smoother with less overhead.
I also recommend NOT flashing the gapps Zeubea provides. Just get them from Play. Some of the latest Jelly Bean apps are almost useless for me, like Maps. I installed an old version—I think the one from Blay0's rom in fact. Works much better. I find the stock browser way too heavy, too. Camera app is way too heavy, deleted. But all these can be replaced with stuff from Play.
Remember too that JB apps are bigger in general so RAM will be limited. Just opening Settings eats 30MB.
JB roms may also trash your wifi and gps. I had problems with both but it's working ok now. Legend wifi was never legendary though haha.
Anyway, just try it!
What you probably should look at is, what base do those "other roms" use, I think you will find more often than not they are based on zeubea's roms anyway, with some tweaks here and there. The op really should tell you in the thread so just have a read...

GPS problems:
You need to edit /system/etc/gps.conf
Use a root explorer like Root Browser to go to that file, and open with RB text editor. Or better yet, copy it to your computer and edit it there.
Change the file so it contains the information found here http://www.modaco.com/topic/331446-mod-all-roms-gps-fix/
Remove the # from the NTP_SERVER closest to where you live. If you want to add more servers you can look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200089
Removing apps:
If you have Link2SD (and you should!!!) you can try freezing stuff for a few days and then if nothing goes wrong, delete it.
As for what to delete, certainly the stock mail program, the CM file browser (USELESS), music app... I sorted by size and deleted anything that didn't sound useful / critical. I also deleted the AOSP keyboard. It's good but doesn't have Chinese which is a must for me. I just installed another keyboard from Play. If you delete those few things your system space will free up a bit and be more than enough to give it some breathing room. I'm not sure you need more than 20-30 MB free (or any free at all, I'm kinda talking out my ass a bit haha). But it seems to stand to reason that system apps need room to store data, cache, etc., and if they don't things will get choked up real quick.
What does matter is freezing useless apps and utilities that load automatically and sit in RAM. Legend RAM is very limited and while it's true that unused RAM is wasted RAM and that task killers are worse than useless, having stuff load automatically and keep themselves in RAM is just taking up space for useful apps that will use that RAM, without question.
That said anyone with a better understanding is more than welcome to jump in!
Don't talk to me about gps my threads on the topic are enough. Basically gps either works or it doesn't, if it doesn't your out of luck my friend!

I never installed a custom ROM, so before I start my own adventure I'd like to ask if you guys would like to share your experience with me.
My goal would be to find a clean and bloatware free alternative. I love how nice and smooth some of my Nexus devices work and would be cool to see such a thing running on the Razr Maxx too, with all that battery power. I'm happy with the design and look of the stock ROM so I am not looking for any fancy changes, just something like Stock ROM without any unncessary packages.
I hope such a thing exists and that it might somehow boost the battery usage efficiency, otherwise I guess I'll just keep on going with root and freeze anything I don't like.
Some info on my device:
System version - 982.124.14.XT910.Retail.en.EU
Model number - XT910
Android version - 4.1.2
Baseband version - U_04.10.00R
Webtop version - wt-3.0.0

For a start I'll start following what this guy here says: link
So far I tried:
Cyanogenmod
cm-10.1.2-umts_spyder - problems with aosp keyboard
cm-10.1.3-umts_spyder - problems with aosp keyboard
cm-11-20140319-NIGHTLY-umts_spyder - didn't quite like it
Slim Jelly Bean
Slim-umts_spyder-4.3.build.2.2-UNOFFICIAL-20131119-1959 - it only has nova launcher as default display manager
So in a moment I'll try out MoKee
Anyway, thanks for the initial input everyone. At least now I started discovering various roms.
Any custom rom has problems, only stock is almost perfect on stability but there is a lot of options and customizations not available. Some errors take more time to appear. Everyone has different interests and hardware so you might never suffer some bugs.
If aosp keyboard is not working for you, there is options like swype (included in stock but for cm you have to buy it. Thought it has upgrades that can be worthy like dragon speaking) or swiftkey.
Stock rom without carrier bloat... only Brazil retail.
Looking for stock Heavily debloated... Search for de-blur ones. My advice here would be to try to deblur by your own by reading a de-blur list and removing one by one. Some roms out there can be deblurred more than you would like.
Interesting stock ROM? China ROM (i believe current version is 400-430) has a unique feature... Call recording without having to mess with configurations, system files etc.... and very nice stability and battery compared to other stock options. Read its thread thoroughly since installing it is not so easy due to region restrictions (read about CID) and something called CDT.bin that can get you unable to revert to other ROMs or even use your phone again depending on circumstances (CDT.bin problem is not exclusive to China ROM).
Currently using slimkat, had cyanfox before. I Spend at least a day with current rom before installing jbx since flashing another kernel can bring new bugs that are not caused by current rom. (Thought normally jbx gives a big improvement on speed and other things sometimes it has bugs).

It is a bad idea to freeze any system apps that aren't on the deblur list if you don't kow what you are doing. Everything he has there is safe to freeze, and some of their processes can be handled better by other apps anyways.
Regardless welders list is EXAMPLE ONLY! If you are looking to debloat your stock ROM, take angrist's advice and find/read the debloat(deblur) list for Razr, and freeze processes that you feel you don't need one at a time. Use the phone a little bit and see if it causes you issues, then move to the next.

Hello guys,
I do not know if this problem happens to you ...
I use the latest version of CyanogenMod ofical NIGHTLY our LA friend (Caio) with the latest version of Dorimanx Kernel (I do not modified anything in the Kernel, only the sound booseter at + 20db). It is a very good Rom (at the beginning of use without applications without customization etc)
But when I start normally use the ROM (installed my personal applications, synchronizing email, contacts, etc), randomly, the system becomes unstable at times. There is no specific app, even in the launcher, or on the lock screen cell at times gets very lag (this happens dozens of times a day) often need to restart your phone to solve the problem of slowness. But at other times the phone is fast as a plane ...
I suspect it's some application that is running in the background. However I could not identify what ... I uninstalled antivirus, clean master, facebook, limit the number of processes, I put memory killer, and still continue with the issue.
My question is:
You also experience this problem? It is a problem in Rom?
If not, you know some application that enables me to identify what causes this problem? Eg an application that point: The 14:31:21 Avast application consumed 80% of CPU and 800MB ram ..
If anyone can help I thank. Because it does not know what else to do, I can see I'll have to buy a new phone, because in all Roms I installed the Galaxy S2 I go through this problem of Lag (Android 2.x, 4.x, 5.1, Neat Rom etc.) all.

What I found most stable was the Neat rom (which is based on Stock rom), but it lacks the advantages lollipop, and I decided to keep the Lollipop. But this Lag / slowness, will make me end up throwing out the window my galaxy s2

Try KitKat if you still want a reasonably modern rom and fast experience. LP is still full of memory leaks and IMO, is still going to have issues for a while on our phone. The rom I recommend is slimsaber 4.4.4 by fusionjack. Or if you don't like this, try neatrom aosp. KitKat is way more polished than Lollipop and works the way it should. It still has plenty of support (as in there are custom kernels available) for custom kernels (like me ) and developers.
However, KitKat is not perfect for our device just like every other Android version. If you require the YouTube app, you will have to use a youtube mod of an older version, or if you require Skype, you may face issues. GPS can be unreliable, but I guess this is the same with LP.

+1 for what @gsstudios said
You could also try trimming your device. That may stop a lot of lags
Thanks guys for the suggestions.
From what I saw, it will take a long time for the Lollipop is stable for our GT I9100.
Following the suggestions of you, I returned to KIT KAT, and installed the "[ROM] [MIUI 6] [4.4.4] [I9100] [Blackra1n] [5.7.20] [STABLE] [ROM]
"I'm using it for two days, and did not notice any lag or Bug without mecionar the look is amazing that it has ...
Unfortunately I will have to give up some Lollipop resources for now.
I installed the slimsaber you suggested, however I found it very simplistic ROM. If I have a problem with MIUI, I will migrate to it.
Actually "memory killers" kill the speed of the smartphone. When processes are loaded in RAM, they are ready to be active on demand. If you kill them, before to be ready to start they have to be loaded again in RAM. Android isn't Windows. It doesn't need of a lot of free memory. More RAM is occupied, more fast are the processes. If more free RAM is necessary, kernel will free it.
