issue with status bar and notification drawer - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA,
So lately im having an extremely annoying lag when i pull down the notification drawer, i also noticed some lags when going to recents.
im using a nexus 6 with currently bliss rom 6.4 updated to latest version with the kernel provied with rom, using open gapps - pico.
I had those same lags using Pure Nexus rom and stock rom.
The interesting thing is that i dont have lags when the rom is freshly flashed, it is only recently that i noticed that after adding my 3 google accounts that things started to mess up.
i first added 1 account and everything is working great, but when i had 2 more g accounts and i cancel all the syncing besides gmail. I immediately noticed my phone was working extremely slow in some cases, even on loading apps. i tried to removing the 2 other accounts but no luck.
finally another big issue that i noticed is that when battery goes bellow 15% and i get the notification for saving battery, phone gets really slow and it is not fixed until i run sd maid cleaner pro.
iv'e had the phone for 1 year and a half, i had 3 gmail accounts synced all the time with no lag issue, using same roms.
but it bugs me that it works like a new one when rom is freshly flashed before syncing and the gmail accounts .
i appreciate any advice or experience if anyone here had the same issue and got a solution.
Thank you,

I recommend posting this in the bliss rom thread so that the developer can fix the issue with his ROM.

[Q] MIUI - camera error

Anybody else have issues w/ the Camera in Stock MIUI Rom? From the Camera, when I click on the thumbnail (bottom left) to go to Gallery, it takes a while to load (white screen until then) and when I go back to Camera, it often gives an error 'Can't connect to camera' and dies
I've been running MIUI for a few days now and I'm a heavy user of everything in the UI.
I had a few problems with the camera at first, now I don't for some reason. Used to be slow showing gallery from camera app like you stated, I re flashed it twice because the new version came out with the CM7 camera but I didn't like it so I flashed back to the MIUI v3 without the CM7 camera.
I've had less problems with the entire rom in general since I uninstalled setcpu and didn't OC the phone. It's still crazy fast and now I don't have as many issues, used to freeze like 2-3 times a day and I had to reboot the phone because of it. Now that doesn't happen since I uninstalled the OC stuff.

Thanks strange. I don't have SetCPU. May be I'll try to reflash the rom. Overall I like this. Is the look and feel for this rom specific to the 2.3.7 or has MIUI customized the settings menu, etc
Anybody else has issues w/ MIUI stock camera .. please advise

[Q] ICS Browser issues?

Hey guys,
I've been running AOKP ICS (M3) on my GTab 10.1 WiFi for the last few days with flawless performance and very few issues. However, I am experiencing problems in the stock browser. After, several minutes of surfing, the browser becomes very laggy. Soon after pages fail to load and hang around 10%. At this point the browser is unusable. The problem persists until I close the browser and force close it. Has any one else experienced this issue on ICS? Any fixes?
Note: I have tried all of the obvious fixes like wiping cache, data, reinstalling from, etc.
Thanks!

It seems to happen on image and java intensive sites for me. I found using an ad blocker fixed most of the freezes. Other than that i think we will just have to wait for an update. (aircanada. Com crashes the browser on every visit)
Yeah memory intensive sites tend to cause this. I just installed an ad blocker, I'll see if it helps. Thanks for the advice!
I'm pretty sure once everything with tegra 2 gets sorted out completely, it'll work fine.
Same problem here
ics is more smooth than honeycomb, I don't want to flash back because of this glitch.
I have installed the ads blocker before but problem still
anyone have the solution ?
Guys, a bit OT maybe, but seems like a good place to ask
I was also trying this ICS build yesterday and loved what I saw, but there were two main problems that are deal-breakers for me at the moment:
- I can't subsribe to any Google services (gmail, reader, market), because there's no way to sync google account as as actual "google account",
- because of above, I can't install - from the android.market.com - apps that I already had, because it says I already have them installed; I have to look around the web for .apk-s and install manually
Did you also had those problems? Is it the same for every ICS build out there? Will this be fixed for the final Cyanogenmod9 release?
For the time being, I'll stay on GalaxyTask 13...
Well, the ad blocker definitley seems to help and my issues with the browser are far less frequent.
@antic604
I would do a full wipe, then install the latest version and don't forget to flash gapps afterward.
Try setting pluggins to on demand.
Same thing here on my asus prime, even if my plugin is on demand. I didn't have this issue on my prev asus. I'm very disappointed. This OS is just like a beta version. So the prime with ics is very bad value for the money. I don't know what to do, sell it or wipe and load a new rom :-/

Yeah I have the exact same problem.
I use Chrome Beta whenever the Stock browser becomes laggy and hangs, it's very annoying.
This problem I have and the face .avi files get deleted, I have placed a fair few series on my Tab and wanted to access some and half of them were gone.
This happened a few times already.

Any fix for these minor issues?

Hello Proud GS3 owners,
I have been loving the phone so far. However I have had a couple of problems. Haven't rooted the phone so far. Just so that you know. Also its my first android so forgive me for any noobishness
The problems i have been facing are :
1. When I use FB for sync in accounts and sync it has the option to sync calendar and gallery. However the calendar doesn't sync. I have tried to unsync and resync it and all other basic steps that I could possibly think of but it doesn't help.
2. This is a bit unusual (Given the phones top specs) but sometimes I have noticed that the phone starts lagging specially when its hot after using it at a stretch. I make it a point to keep closing the apps running in the background but it still lags. Its fine after a few minutes when the phone isn't hot anymore or when it has not been used extensively. What am I doing wrong? Also just to add Nova 3 isn't t as smooth as I have seen it in the videos on youtube. Could it be a hardware issue?
3. This is the one which really bugs me the other two are no biggies. My apps keep redrawing/refreshing when i open them after minimizing. So if I have a game that i am playing and I decide to use the stopwatch and browse I minimize the game using the home key not the back key. Start the stopwatch. Start browsing. Then I return back and when I open the browser the page reloads itself. Also stopwatch resets itself completely which is a pain in the rear. I am using the stock browser.
Also have tried resetting the phone back to factory default and took the phone to samsung and I believe they flashed the stock ROM but all the above issues have not been fixed.
Any help would be extremely appreciated

3rd one is bad software optimization, there is a fix in the development section for Samsung JB based roms, it will let you multitask 7+ apps.
Second problem, you say the phone is hot when it happens? maybe the CPU got hot too and is throttling down, are you sure powersaving mode is off?
First problem, Facebook for android was really bad, it started improving but facebook developers are dumb, try third party apps like friendcaster.
I agree the facebook app isn't great. However it concerns me when my friend who has the same version of GS3 can get his calendar to sync without using any 3rd party app and I cannot. But I will give a 3rd party app a shot.
I will be searching for the thread you mentioned and try to tweak the settings and see how it goes
I am not really sure what can be done as far as the second issue is concerned. Also as I mentioned earlier I hate it when I play a top notch game like NOVA 3 but it isn't as smooth as expected. Other games like fifa 12, Dead trigger hold up fine.
Thanks for the suggestions though
[Edit] : Yes I do make sure power saving is off as I am aware it slows down the CPU and there is a considerable lag specially when scrolling pages on the home screen or the app drawer which I do not like. It does improve the battery life to a certain extent but I cannot complain if I get a battery life of around 10-12 hours which includes 3 hours of screen time with pretty heavy usage while having the power saving mode off

Getting delayed notifications

Hey guys,
I have lately installed the new UltimaRom 10.1 rom and started witnessing major delays in my notifications (mail, whatsapp, facebook, facebook messenger), and when i say major i am talking about 1.5-2 hours delay, the delays are on 3G.
If i know that i should receive something i open the program and receive it instantly.
My old rom was a a based 4.1.1 old Wanam rom, in which i didn't have any problems with the notifications.
I've tried to search all over XDA and google for the solution, the only thing partly useful was this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2142503
I've downloaded and installed this app, seemed to fix the delay, but after i did a restart it started happening again :/ (and yeah i tried to hit the interval again in this app).
Also tried to reinstall the apps, didn't help.
Specificaitons:
Galaxy S3 i9300
UltimaRom v10.1 based 4.1.2 XXEMR2
Boeffla kernel
Any idea guys? this is driving me insane! I can live with a 5 mins delay, but not with 1.5 hours
P.S: If u need more info please let me know.

[Q] Everything keeps failing

So I was using the CM11 mod for my fascinate for about 2 months. The first 2 weeks of using it, it was awesome. After that, my RAM was going down for no reason, and i had some problems but i could fix it by optimizing my device.
A few days ago, my phone kept crashing. I kept on getting messages that Trebuchet had failed, Clock had failed, Play Store Services have failed, etc. Today morning, almost everything on my phone failed. It would just keep reloading the home page. I restarted my device several times, but after that nothing would really load.My battery had about 93% charge and i went to school. When it was 3rd period in school, my battery was 15%. I had no applications running. I just turned it off
When i got home, it would load but everything was slow. i optimized, cleared cache and everything but it wouldn't work. When i open an app, it takes a long time to load. The home screen, and menu pop us normally, but the apps are slow. I really dont know what to do and what ROM to move onto next. Im not getting a new phone for a while, and i really need help.
What ROM should i flash? I need something stable, that wont have problems like this. I also like to use Facebook a lot.
Please help me with my problem because i really want my phone to work. I bought the phone for $200 and it was a bad decision, since all these problems started occurring. What ROM would be the best for me?
@samsung striker
Wow, you have a lot going in there...
Hopefully when you say cm11, it's the version from unjust 06/04/14
That thing is ridiculously stable...
I'll start off with this, Facebook and any fb messenger apps are huge memory hogs.
Next, i saw you mention optimize several times, what program are you using to do that with?
The particular problem i see with the fascinate right now is browsing and using social media sites fill up the cache folder quickly. When that happens the phone well act like you have described.
You can easily fill the cache on one or two days depending on how heavily you browse.
At a minimum, what i think you need to do is boot into recovery and wipe cache and davlik.
Then reboot and let it rebuild things, if things don't smooth out within 15 minutes of booting up, go ahead and reboot again to see if it clears up.
It's very possible if you filled up the cache it probably tried to write information somewhere else and why it freaking out
I would recommend ever other day wiping cache from in recovery and you should be real safe with things and the ROM would be very stable.
If you have done that and are still having issues,,,
Or if you at ready to sacrifice losing your call history and text history and apps etc,,, Go ahead in recovery and do the factory reset,,, it will wipe your apps and stored data (not download items like music or zip files) & put everything back just like you did a fresh install of cm11, so you have to set up all your preferences and gapps and other apps you want all over again
.
Yea i use Facebook a lot. I like to download a lot of apps and most of the time it works fine, but sometimes these problems start to occur, followed by a lot of lag.
When i optimize my device, i optimize it with this program called "Smart Booster." I also use this other app called "Fast Reboot."
Anyways, ill try what you suggested and see if it works well. If it doesn't work out for me, do you have any other Rom's in mind that are better for me?
Thanks.
I had the same issue pop up a week or two ago. Cleared cache and Dalvik on a semi-regular basis (although I probably browse less than it sounds like you do) but it didn't do too much for me. Ended up on the most recent CM 10.1 nightly and only installed the apps I use regularly instead of my usual restore of every app that had a TiBu backup. It's been working great for me over the past week or so. Personally, I couldn't handle the data drops on CM 11 any longer either, so CM 10.1 has been a good solution on that front.

How did you go back to CM 10.1 Nightly? Did you just download and flash it? Im worried that somethings gonna happen since im going to JB from KK. I wanted to try the PAC man Rom.

Also, Can you please post the link for the CM 10.1 Nightly? i cant seem to find it.. Thanks
Grab the latest nightly from the CyanogenMod site - I PM'd you the link since I can't post them here.
I booted into recovery, wiped data/cache/dalvik and installed the zip. It failed, I rebooted back into recovery, and installed the zip again and it worked without a hitch. Very similar to flashing CM 11.

Yea thanks for the help
So i flashed it, and it was working pretty good. I downloaded a few apps such as Messenger, Kik, TB, Smart Lock, and Clash of clans. It was working well, until i used Facebook Messenger, which made it lag just a little. I used clash of clans, and it did lag a little so i had to get Smart Booster, and optimize.
I like to download a lot of apps so im not sure how my device would handle it, since im experiencing a little lag from these few apps. Did you download similar apps as me? Also, do you like to download a lot of apps? Im just asking just to see how well your Fascinate runs compared to mine.
Again, thanks for the help. My Fascinate runs better now
Im gonna try to get a custom kernel and see what happens.
I found that when I installed ALL of my apps that the phone would slow down significantly. I just have the essentials now - a few games, a few social apps, and some other items, well below what I had earlier. The Fassy didn't respond too well when I had a ton of apps on there, so I scaled back and it seems to be working a lot better for me. The single-core can only handle so much - hopefully Devil or another kernel will help you out if you need additional apps!

Yea that's the bad thing about the fascinate, and i don't think there are any kernels for Cm 10.1 because I searched online, and couldn't find anything.
Check out HHP's thread in the General section - plenty of JB kernels to choose from. I think Devil was the most widely liked from that group if I remember correctly.
