I9300 ON 4.3 Official - Slow, Laggy and Screen Flicker when swiping - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys ive got a Samsung s3 which is on 4.3 official stock rom, however im having some problems. Firstly is the problem of lagging, for example i could be using the browser and when i go back to the home screen there is nothing there and it takes a few seconds for all the icons to load back.
Second problem which is intermittent and usually goes away when i reboot the phone is when swiping through the homescreen i get these weird screen flickers (Not sure if screen flicker is the right word) but basically i can see my other app icons in the background which become enlarged. I have included some picures to better explain. Do you think this is a hardware or software fault and what should i do?
Any helps appreciated, Thanks.

(1) Backup any files photos then factory reset
If problem still there
(2) Flash another stock rom with Odin
If problem still there probably hardware related

I have the same problem. The flicker of the screen I think is touchwizz because when I use another launcher dissappears.
Normally with a reboot I fix it, but it happens again from time to time.

this happens on my s3 after update to 4.3 how to fix this

Up for this thread.

I also got that flickering on TW launchers (even on an S5 themed one). And actually, it's not a flickering, it is a stretched app icon (in the screenshot you atached it is Camera). I observed (at least in my case) that this happens when the RAM usage is above 700-750MB. try a custom ROM (after backing up, recommended) like SmartDroid Simple v7, NxTGen 13.1, ehich both have really good RAM usage (on Smartdroid v7 I got as low as 280, if i remember well. I posted the screenshot in that thread.

what did you do yo remove this weird issue?

I had similar problems after updating from official 4.1.2 to official 4.3 (MJ9 ROM, November 2013). Problems were extremely widespread. I got sick of waiting for Samsung to even acknowledge the problem and eventually moved to NeatROM, and I'm happy to say I haven't looked back. I will probably never return to stock now.

You bumped within a couple of hours? Why?
- Go to Settings > More > Application Manager > Running > Select the app you want end and click "Force Stop" (Please make sure you dont close any important app)
- Hold menu button until you get the recents bar then clear all
- Try "Greenify" and use that to reduce the number of running apps.
- Install a custom-ROM like SmartDroid, it is lightweight sammy ROM and uses less storage and RAM.

Some weird lag in my galaxy s3 !

Some times my galaxy s3 gets laggy ( i mean laggy in scrolling in menu , scrolling thru home screens) , everything. The animations wont stay smooth for a short time.
Im not interested in flashing any custom rom and i think the s3 is pretty fast and smooth with the stock rom , and i even want to keep the features.
Any idea what is causing this ?
Thanks.
Settings - advance settings, change both window and transition to 0.5x
S- voice - settings - uncheck the launch s- voice with double tap of home button.
There is a lag on home button because the phone is waiting to see if you press it a second time to activate s-voice, the above 2 really do help.

If you are using any widgets that have information that automatically updates, remove them and reboot. Reapply them 1 by 1 leaving a while between each. Before adding the next one, check for lags. When you find lag, it's likely the last one you applied is the culprit.

i also have some problem on my s3. i seems to be lagging (from lock screen to home screen), not as smooth (in temrs of animation, etc) as before. i dont know the cause, i always clear the memory. and the averge % of the 50-60%. the first time it happened, i restore the factory settings, and it become smooth again. but now, it's lagging again. what could have been the cause of it? and how could i fixed this without restoring factory settings again, i dont want to lose my files again. please help. thanks!!!
other info: i only have 3 homescreens, i only use the default widgets except for, 2 apw widgets. my lockscreen app is widgetlocker. ram is 398/780mb

Power saving only causes issues but does not really prolong the battery life (according to my own and other people's tests)
Just keep it off and enjoy the phone.

Since a lot of contact syncs generally lengthen the contact list. If u r logged in to too many social networking sites or other apps like chaton and accounts like samsung account, it generally slows down the phone. Since initially the mobile didnt hv lots of contacts and sync accouts , it was running smooth.
I applied this on my S3 as it was showing the same problem and i dont see any lag now.
Ha! S3 users are experiencing lag! Glad to hear it, not in a big rush to upgrade now...

no it makes just the animations run with 60 frames per second, but it doesn't disable lags. on android you will have always lags, because the UI rendering has a low priority.
take it easy guys it's just a phone, even a desktop lags what more for a phone..
let's wait for more years, hopefully people can then throw the work "LAG" to oblivion

I dont think android will ever been mostly lag free. even a 200€ windows phone runs more smooth then a 500€ samsung galaxy s3, its a "problem" of android. but for that con, it has good multitasking.
I'm experiencing pretty slow and laggy multi tasking and laggy YouTube. The multitasking was a lot smoother on my gnex. Is this normal or should I go exchange my s3 for a new one.

[Q] Remove App Associations?

I've seen and tried a couple of work arounds to remove App Associations from ICS/Sense 4.1 - I've tried fapple final but get boot loops. Tried removing HTCLinkifyDispatcher.apk (w/ build.prop edits) and nothing at all links up. Is there any method that actually works for our device?
(was using CM10.1 but the secure lock screen slowness and deteriorating quality took me back to VIPER)

Due to a lawsuite with Apple, HTC had to put in an open app to app hook block - HTCLinkifyDispatch.apk. Its gotten better in OTAs but it still prevents things like clicking "Yes | No | Maybe" in GCal invite emails from opening in the Calender app.
Also, I don't mean to get off topic but you work is great but a few little things are smoother in stock.

After some of the later unofficials I find it laggy. Random scroll jumps (jumps down, then back up). Play still crashes, no matter CPU settings. Touch also goes unresponsive where official nightlies rarely did. I can deal with all of that actually. The kicker is the pin, password and pattern unlock are painfull slow across all versions of CM10.1 on this device. Setting it in preferences is fast but actually using it to unlock your phone it vibrates like a mother and either freezes or severly lags behind.

[Q] S3 with stock FW changes itself to home screen

Since a few days my S3 is opening the home screen itself, so basically the same action as pressing the main button of the S3. It does that especially after a fresh start for 2-3 minutes in an interval of 10~ seconds and afterwards randomly. Surprisingly this doesn't happen in fullscreen games.
There is no black screen or any pause, it simply changes the the homescreen in a normal way and I have no idea why.
Does anyone has an idea what could cause this problem?
I removed a few applications recently like Link2SD, SDBooster and Volume Locker. Are the removals maybe related with this issue?

[Q] Flickering Multicolored Lines

For the past week or so my phone has had flickering multicolored lines flash across the homescreen(s)/lockscreen when I turn the display back on. Sometimes it will also happen if I'm sitting on the homescreen with the display already on.
Here is my Rom history as the problem began:
Was on supernexus (Android 4.2.2 I believe) - issue was not present
Flashed Unofficial Slim build 6 (wiped cache/dalvik/factory reset before install)- started having the issue
Flashed Unofficial Slim build 6.2 (wiped cache/dalvik)- issue still present
Flashed AOCP 5.7 yesterday (wiped cache/dalvik/factory reset and formatted internal SD)- thought issue was gone, but it started happening again today.
I tried taking screenshots but the issue disappears as soon as I press the volume+power button to take the screenshot. This only seems to happen when I'm on the homescreen/lockscreen, I dont think it has happened while in any other apps.
I'm wondering if this might be an issue with the specific version of the Nova launcher, as I believe that is the common denominator between these Roms (isn't AOCPs launcher based on CM's nova?). I just installed go launcher and the problem seems to be gone (for now).
Has anyone else seen something like this? I apologize if this has been discussed somewhere, I spent several hours searching Google and XDA before posting. I can post a picture later when I have access to another camera phone.
Same issue here
I have the same issue at the lock screen. Prevalent on all JB roms I have tried, carbon, revolt & slim bean.
I'm currently using Carbon nightly. I have not seen a fix for this yet. I have heard it might be an issue with the processor waking up from sleep.
After installing Go Launcher Ex opening it a couple times and then going back to using the Aspire launcher that came with AOCP, I haven't had this issue again all afternoon. Didn't have it at all yesterday though, so it might come back.
I played around with all the brightness settings but it didn't seem to do anything. Do you happen to have any pictures of the effect you are getting? I'll try and post a picture of mine tonight if it happens again. Thanks!
About 3 hours ago, I changed some GPU & lock screen settings and the issue has not reappeared.
I will post back either later tonight or tomorrow morning with some info.
I haven't taken any photos of the problem yet. By the way, do you usually experience the issue on lock screen coming from a screen off state?
ditto on this. I have Cyanogenmod 10.1 installed and I get these lines intermittently.
Try turning off CRT animations and disable hw overlays.

Go to settings, developer options scroll half way down and you will find it. You will have to disable it every time you reboot or you can use two paid apps from the market. These apps are tasker and secure setting they are both worth every cent.

Just enabled "Disabled HW overlay" and "Force GPU rendering". Like some of the users suggested, I found about the possible solution from this video:

(go to 1:40)
I usually get the flickering with the lock screen (I use WidgetLocker Lockscreen). I was having some flickering this morning and checking both of those options seemed to immediately cut out the flickering.
I ran across it(the flickering lines) on one of the 4.2.2 roms, can't remember exactly which one but what I ended up having to do was disable one of the tweak apps it came with and install Trickster Mod only. Worked for me, no more flickering or rebooting, not sure what the cause may have been but have had no other issues after that for I believe it was 2 weeks
Please elaborate

Scroll down to my post there. If you still need help, just let me know.
Trickster mod I believe is mainly for Rom's that have Kernels that can be OC'd or Under Clocked. Kind of the same as Android Tweaker or SetCPU but is a little smoother for me IMO.

CyanideMod V2 volume
I am currently having a problem. The volume buttons on the phone are not working for Ringtone and Notification. They will only adjust the volume of the music, games & other Media. I have it set in Sound/Volumes, but it is not working. Also, I am not able to adjust the volumes in the profiles, they just stay set at defaults.

FUSE support?
Hi,
I found this ROM last night and flashed it, and want to say thanks. I was having trouble with other ROMs aborting installation, but this one installed without a hitch. Everything works as it should, and way better than my old CM9 ROM. This was completely painless.
Question: Does the kernel have FUSE support?
I'm trying to get SSHFS working; I can ssh into the target server via terminal emulator, but SSHFS will not mount. It appears to mount but doesn't really. When I click unmount, It complains:
fusermount: error getting lock: Invalid argument
I know this isn't the place to get help with SSHFS, but it will only work if the kernel has FUSE support, so that enters into your bailiwick.
Oh, and a possible issue: It seems I'm not getting as strong a network signal now as I did before flashing this ROM. Is it even possible this could be due to a software issue?
Thanks again for the great work. You are awesome!
Stock recent panel is not working. Could just be my dirty flash. Thank you for your hard work. This ROM is amazing.

modem not working
I've been running a CyanogenMod-9 version for quite awhile, until about a week ago when I decided to upgrade. I tried some of the CM-10 versions, and installation aborted midway, leaving me stuck with a non-working phone for a few days.
I flashed CyanideMod-V3-S2 a few days ago, and was very pleased to see it install effortlessly. It looks great, and everything seems to be working, EXCEPT the modem.
The network signal is very weak. I can make calls if I am in town, or on top of a high hill, but often I get no signal at all. I do live in a rural area, but it has never been this weak. Even when I get full bars, they are always white, never blue as they should be. I have no access to data.
I don't know much about AT&T's network; frequencies, etc., but my semi-educated guess is that I'm not picking up all the frequencies I should.
In my settings:
Mobile network is on.
Data is enabled
Preferred network type is set to 3G
Network operators is set to ATT
Access Point Names was set to ATT LTE. I stopped in today at an ATT store, and the rep's phone was set to "ATT Phone" so I experimentally changed to that and rebooted, but saw no change. The settings in the 7 available choices match the setting in other working phones in our household, so I don't think this is a settings problem.
I found the "Consolidated Modem" thread on this site, which lists 13 choices for modems. My phone reports a "Baseband version of i777UCKK6, which is one of the choices in that page, which I assume was installed with the ROM. I don't know if the modem is my problem, and wouldn't have a clue which of these to try. Are they installed through recovery in the same way as the ROM and gapps?
I love this ROM, but the phone is nearly unusable as it is. Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone have any pointers?
Thanks so much for all your hard work.
Newest modern is UCMD8. Rom wouldn't affect the modem other then the usual kk signal issues
Thanks for the update. Amazing!! Stalk recents still does not work (maybe because of dirty flash, please confirm with other users). Also the power menu-reboot menu does not have reboot to recovery. Reboot to recovery is available in stweaks. But it would be nice to have again in power menu.

If you uncheck and recheck Advanced Boot in Developer Options you should get the boot to recovery to show back up. It still shows for me after update.
I am getting FC on Google play services after update and cannot access my account. Would reflashing gapps fix that?

Thanks for helping him. Yes just reflash gapps. Not sure why it's like that but for some reason it is. I don't need it while testing but then do later on. Strange
Awesome build (V4). Coming from CM of a few months ago, everything is real snappy (also due to flashing afresh).
A few bugs so far:
1) Tapping on notifications in the pull-down drawer doesn't seem to link to anything (the animation works, but the associated action doesn't fire). Additionally, the Halo/Quick Settings buttons at the top of the notification drawer seem to get pushed off the edge of the screen (Would be nice if the Halo button could be removed/Halo disabled).
2) Lock screen slider shortcuts cover up cLock
3) Volume buttons (including from home screen) control system volume, not ringer/notification volume.
Amazing work, in any case! Some day I'll need to get a new phone.

Use latest stock 4.1.2, I777UCMD8 which you can get from the download repository (link in my signature) Also some other stuff there if you need it, but not the recovery and firmware you need.
thanks a ton, got everything back to square one with that I777UCMD8 tar, easy after that and now running cyanidemod and it's running as slick as my gs5.. at least it seems to be. thanks again:good:
After a couple days of use its still running super slick.. only issue thus far is pretty bad battery life.. any settings i can adjust to improve things? Or another kernel maybe.. anyone else have issues with battery life?
