Seems like it was just updated and optimized for the note 2014 edition. I stopped using it since the page scrolling and rendering was so slow, but this latest update seems to have fixed that. :good:
Trying it out now.

Scrolling is actually still slow, rendering is much faster. There are still some hiccups like the highlighting screen blackout and forced shutdown.

^ This. Contact the devs.
Only 1 so far I have found that does not work is SPD Shell 3D. Says it has ICS support but no go on my prime. Already e-mailed the dev.
App support will require some ICS loving to be applied to the apps, and even though ICS is consistent throughout both phones and tablets they may still have to make tegra 3 and tablet customizations to their ICS variant. Since that was only released 8 hours ago give it a little time.
Has anyone had problems charging after update? Mine doesn't seem to charge ...

For me it takes a minute or two to get to HD res, but it gets there eventually.
And quadrant always force closes, but it did that on honeycomb as well

That is not, and has never been, a native feature of Android. It's only available in custom roms.
GPS button getting removed from the quick settings menu is a bork... IMHO

I believe that is an ICS problem with the way ICS reports screen res or something. It is a known issue with Swype and hopefully a beta will be available by the end of the month to address it..

Has anyone else found their twitter app laggy and slow to respond to touch especially when scrolling? Its really bad for me so much so as I'm using another app for now. I'd prefer to use the official version. Does anyone know what the problem might be.

It is gingerbread. There's a video on YouTube called something like "android is now as smooth as iOS" the video shows the difference when the GPU is allowed to regulate use in ICS.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Actually, it's laggy on both my Galaxy Nexus and my Note ...it's not really related to Gingerbread or ICS because the official Twitter app sucks on both and I've noticed it for a while now. Hopefully they fix it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
Yeah, it has to do with Gingerbread, not the phone itself. I saw the same YouTube video, where the user forced 3D GPU rendering on ICS and the twitter app was smooth as butter. It has to do with Android not defaulting/forcing the full use of the GPU for rendering, probably has something to do with battery life. I think if you are on ICS, and have Developer Tools in the settings menu (probably some custom rom has this enabled) then you can force gpu rendering.
Read here. They recently updated, and the article was nice enough to mention the Note specifically!
I just updated it. It's not 100% smooth, but it is probably 100% better than it was 2 days ago. It was almost unusable before...
I update and found it to be better also

Just wanted to inform everyone that a netflix update just went out. It improved the UI choppiness a little bit... but it's still pretty choppy in comparison to other tablets.
I'm not experiencing choppiness that's worse than my original Transformer or my wife's Galaxy Tab 10.1. In fact, Netflix on my Prime is far better than both...
Enabling the "Force GPU rendering" option under developer options helps a lot regarding the Netflix UI.
Oh thank God. My netflix app is damn near unusable due to the choppyness.

I have never has smooth Netflix browsing, regardless of the Android device I was using the app on. Basically the Netflix app just sucks. At least playback is (relatively) smooth. The Xbox 360 app also sucks (for different reasons). I believe Netflix just doesn't know how to make a decent app.

Wow, that completely fixed it! After turning that on there's absolutely no choppiness/lag in the netflix UI.

I think theres always gonna be choppiness and lag even with force gpu on Netflix. It may help a lot but it will never be smooth like when your browsing or swiping through home screens.
Update still leaves my ui really choppy and laggy, but force gpu rendering did help alot. Are there any cons with leaving that setting applied?

The only con I encountered was it broke the game Meltdown from Mars. I just get a black acreen. So if I wanna play it I have to uncheck gpu rendering. Not a big deal. That's all so far for me.

whats so different about this than the regular Opera Minis?
ok gave it a try, i gotta admit its extremely fast and smooth UI
One thing i don't like is
if you go to google.com it looks so awkward and low quality?
Also is there a way to make the websites not all be cramped up?
Overall, i think i'll keep this for a while, thanks for sharing.
It seems smooth and fluid... I use this when I pass 10GB and they throttle me but otherwise I prefer the chrome beta atm even tho this browser is a lot more fluid.

Just wondering if its just me, when you open Chrome BETA (cold start, meaning you have not previously opened it and it was not started previously) does it just start go to the regular white screen and stay there for about 10 seconds before loading?
Thats the one thing i hate, if that was fixed, i'd be back on Chrome, I'm on Dolphin HD right now and it opens in less than 2 seconds of my tap.

How i get smooth scrolling like iphone 4 in my gs3
Buy an iPhone
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
The scrolling seems more controlled in android. By fast flick scrolling you can scroll past long pages instead of scrolling a 30 times.

Easy optimize the system correctly. Plenty of topics on here about that, search.
- Start with disabling unneeded Samsung Services (that usually Google services are already taking care of) etc.
- Remove unwanted Start-ups.
- If using another launcher, make sure it isn't the launcher at fault. ie. Many Apex launcher betas has problems scrolling..
Android is like Windows, Linux etc needs tuning and Samsung doesn't do a great job at it. Easy for Apple, same software on the same basic hardware config and its all controlled by one source.
Want that feel get a Nexus, where it's untainted and controlled by Google. If not be prepared to tweak it, fun for geeks not fun for those that ain't or have no time.

One question ... Maybe stupid but I will fire anyway.
I see lots of people stating that for full feel of android we should get a nexus, but I assume that this recommendation is only for those that will never play with ROMs, right?
Cause I know that nexus devices will get their stock updates sooner than others, but usually in a couple of days we start getting the RoMs based on that new version, with some tweaks. I see the nexus guys also playing with ROMs that have stock flavor but with tweaks ... So what's the difference?
Aren't we all at the end with a close to stock ROM with some tweaks?

Smoothest scrolling i get is using supernexus +siyah 1.8 with lulzactiveq governor, btw my wife's iphone 4 isn't very smooth.. Very jerky etc, it doesn't have original front glass on it so may have issues with touch response perhaps

Use liquidsmooth rom. Im using it. Its damn smooth. Even smoother than iphone 4
More over stop comparing it with iphone. There is no point. Iphone has no widgets or anything. All it has to handle are the icons, how tough would that be. More over the code is perfectly optimised for the device.
