Hey mates
I'm using Z5c (e5823) with .253 stock Firmware.
But i don't know why if i root this phone, I have some of lag
i didn't root this phone, i never feel any lag
This lag seems like throttling
Just simple touch becomes hold, my music stopped few seconds
Also i wiped all, re-install several times,
but still when i root this phone, i have lag with high temperature
Is it only my fault? Or DRM problem?
I followed xda's root way properly
i tried Xpower too...
Plz help me
It really makes me pissed off

In android world, it seems after rooted will use a bit more resources very slightly but impossible to the level to create lagging....
Currently, I'm running XPower 3.0 Full and no lag at all.

thats not really true, root doesnt add anythimg to your phoine it only gives you permission to write to system
as for op I also have lag with this phone but its all thermal throttling. my phones screen dims in and out all over the place while throttling and performance is ****ty at times. Ive tried other kernels and tweaks and am happy with xpower 3.0 lite and the stock modified kernel. androplus was a bit too aggressive on cutting back power and the phone didn't multitask well. I suggest giving the thermal values a look at, there is a thread on here with a mini tutorial. ive yet to try it but i will be at some point.

No. Supersu/SuperUser and busybox will consume very slightly resources. In the old day when my phone only got 512MB ram, I can feel the different but no speed hit on 1GB ram or above. Plus if you rooted and run deodexed rom(like PowerX), the loading speed will slower than odexed but deodexed is good for modding.
When I was on 183 and 224, both rooted, no lag at all.
Last week I clean flashed 253, rooted and installed magisk + systemless xposed, phone lagged like crazy.
Not sure what caused the lag, because there are a lot of new variables. I'm about to go back to normal root and xposed, will report after a week or so of usage.

Quick impressions after 3 days.
Clean flashed 253, rooted with v5.0 stable patch by tobias.waldvogel, which supported systemless SuperSU v2.76 and xposed v86, so I gave that a try.
So far, did not experience any of the lag or weird crashes from last time.
Last time used 253 v5.0_rc4 patch, magisk v6 + phh's superuser v17 (topjohnwu repack) + systemless xposed v86.5 (topjohnwu mod version) , not sure which variable was the actual cause, if any.
Last time, playback videos in VLC caused the phone to run very hot. The files were 720p.
Now video playback in VLC only gets the phone mildly warm, even when playing files that are 1080p, which requires downscaling that theoretically is more work for the SoC.
Apart from the patched kernel for root and xposed, the firmware is completely stock. Did not flash any other mods.
My personal experience for reference, mileage may vary.

If anyone is experiencing this problem, I hope the following steps may help.
I would like to express my appreciation to XDA members, who have commended and helped out with this. Credits go to @LordManhattan and @abuihsan . Many thanks for your help.
1/ Do a re-flash: I always thought my device was a c6802, after I flashed c6833, it helped.
2/ Do a factory reset/ Cache wipe/ Dalvik Wipe/ in recovery or in the phone settings.
3/ Install SD-Maid and clean the mess from the programs, also take a look at APPCONTROL to see which is running. You can freeze it here.
4/ Install Performance control to Underclock your CPU. Believe me, 1.7Ghz is far too enough for all the tasks you need.
5/ Use more pwerful tool, like Titanium Backup to stop all the backgound-running apps. You just need to leave the one which were in GREEN color.
6/ Use Wakelock Detector to see which apps get your phone out of deepsleep. Mostly they are Facebook and Messenger. My advice: Disable Facebook notice and if you don't use chat quite often, don't install facebook messenger.
Hope these help.
Personally I had tried a lot of methods, including checking the processes and re-insert the memory card but no such helps. Therefore, if you need any advice or any comments, feel free to send me an PM or reply here, I will gladly help you out, like what the community had helped me our of my situation.
Hi everyone,
Recently I just bought a ZU from a local vendor here. It runs 4.2.2 with no problem. However, I want to get rid of the *new system update* and I also want to use the xperia Themes, I decided to upgrade to 4.3.
My phone model is C6802, and I chose the file here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2453921
The upgrade went through fast and smooth, as I had experienced in many Sony devices.
However, after getting to 4.3, I had noticed some problems as follow:
+ Heat: Device heats up very fast, even left alone. Just imagine you have the phone on 100% battery lying on your table, a moment later it heats up and the battery drops dramatically.
+ Battery drop: Just as mentioned above, the battery drops quickly. I do not expect extreme battery life on this device, but since 4.3, it is too low, I can barely make it to 6 hours without doing anything consuming battery.
+ Process: When checking the battery, I notice that most of the process that takes up battery is Android OS, which nearly 50-60%. I use the phone frequently to answer SMS and call, sometimes play games. I think that the most used applications should be the bad-ass screen?
I am running on the 14.2.A.0.290 with R4B.
Anyone had experienced this problem before, or know a solution to fix? Will clearing the Dalvik Cache help? I had re-flash several times but the problem is still there.
Many thanks in advance.

Sounds like somethings has gone wrong in the update process.
Have you tried backing up all your data and doing a factory reset?
I do not think clearing Dalvik will help you here, sounds like something else is acting up. You could try to install one of the apps designed to detect what is causing the wakelock.
I'm not at my Android tablet at the moment, but I think I used this when I had this problems myself on my Galaxy Note: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector

First of all, thanks for your reply and suggestion.
I had tried to flash the roms multiple times, but the problem still exists. Furthermore, I even flash back to 4.2.2 and the problem is still there. The phone heats up slowly and battery runs out pretty fast.
I had installed the Wakelock Detector on my device and I will update the situation tomorrow, I will leave it there for a night and see the status tomorrow.
Did you wipe after updating? I had the same issue when i updated to 4.3.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as long as he's been downgraded to 4.2.2 again, he'd have to wipe. At least that is how it was on my Xperia Z.
-KJ
this might not be related, but I've been noticing much worse battery life today than normal! i normally only drop about 50% in 24 hours, but today I've dropped 30% in just a few hours. Android OS seems to be doing it...
no real heat issue tho, maybe slightly warmer from whatever the OS is doing, but nothing too major. running stock rooted 4.3
had that on my Xperia Z on a 4.1 or 4.2 build (dunno which one). Sounds strange, but simply turning off the sync fixed the problem, give it a try :laugh:.
Hope it also helps on your XZU.

At first I did not choose to wipe Data in Flashtool, then I flashed again, this time I checked everything.
the problem still exists.
UPDATE:
Yesterday after working hours, I had rooted and installed BetterBatteryStats, Performance Control to monitor the system. I also had WaveLockDetector and Titanium Backup installed.
It appeared that the CPU runs all the time, in the highest state (2.15 Ghz), the phone never goes to DeepSleep and Awake all the time.
On Performance control, I had underclocked the CPU to 1.5Ghz and the temperature seems to be cooler.
I had tried to freeze a lot of applications via Titanium backup but so such luck.
Still researching.
However, many thanks to your kind replies. At least I know that I'm not alone with this problem :good:

I ever had no deep sleep problem with 4.3, even in stamina and airplane mode, and with location-off too, I checked with BBS and found the 'trigger' is a process under google now app. I use GREENIFY and get the google now hybernated. Everything fines now and I still can use google now as it only hybernated when not in use : )

hey, thanks for your reply. I did the same to you, even with Titanium backup to ensure this will never shows up again, but CPU keeps throtlling at 100%. I still can not find an answer to this 100% thing. now the phone is quite hot in my pocket, I decided to put in my bag and even turn off to keep it from heating.
I will try another rom and update.

do you use any cleaner/task killer app? before trying other rom or update, maybe you need to uninstall it, reboot recovery and wipe cache and see the result.
I don't know if this is relevance but while using greenify I also uninstall the previous cleaner app and replace with another one that I think is better.
now my c6833 has great deep sleep.

The thing is, you don't need a task killer/cleaner app. It was useful way back on Android 2.1/2.3, but you shouldn't use it at all on 4.0+. You're actually making things worse.
mine has been heating up as well. the battery isn't draining like how yours is, but any kind of use will heat the top back side of the phone. I checked and after killing all apps, my cpu load was still around 65%. is that normal? no custom flash here. locked bootloader. updated through pcc normally. I'd imagine this is why 4.3 isn't running as buttery smooth like everyone else.

No, that's not normal. Mine's around 20-30 degress celsius (depending on what i'm doing). Even streaming 1080p videos shouldn't make it hot or even mildly hot. When i had the heating problem, two cores would always be stuck at 2150 MHz. Now one core is active at 960 MHz when the screen is on. CPU load is around 20 and 60% (single core). Temperature is currently at 26 degrees. Also, stop killing apps and processes. Most of them are set to start automatically, so when you kill them over and over again, they'll start again and they'll use even more battery. Android is built to manage resources very well on its own, and it's not operating like Windows or any other computer OS. Just leave it alone unless something has gone rouge and you don't have a choice.
I'm on stock 290, rooted and extremely debloated.
- Current battery level: 88%
- Current uptime: 3 h 30 min
- Current screentime: 1 hour (browsing etc.)

hmm... yea that sounds like the problem i am having. im noticing two cores stuck at 2150mhz with a third kicking in here and there. how were you able to fix it? just a fresh install of .290?
so as far as the apps go, i have Du Battery Saver installed and the "optimize" button is supposed to clear up some of the background junk. are you saying that i should leave the optimize button alone and just let android figure itself out?

What i'm saying is that you should uninstall that crappy app. Task killers were useful three years ago when Android devices had slow processors and low amount of RAM. What you're doing now is killing everything everytime you tap that button. WHY do you want to do that? What's the point of having 2GB of RAM when you don't want to use it? Are you always killing processes on your computer too? Would you do it if your computer had 32GB of RAM with 30GB available? Unused RAM is wasted RAM. Android is a modern OS that can handle this on its own. If you only have 300MB RAM left and you want to play Asphalt 8 which requires (i'm guessing) 500MB RAM, Android will find the oldest and less frequently used process and kill it. It's that easy.

ok. so I haven't done anything at all to remedy the situation. I figured I'd ask about it before messing it up myself. I upgraded to .290 via pcc. it updated fine with no errors. once it was done updating, it was hot and battery was diminished. I had seen on another thread that most people had that happened so I didn't see it as an issue, just a side effect of the update process.
I have been checking back to see if anyone was having heating issues with 4.3 after the update and didn't hear about it until I had seen this thread. the OP stated he flashed .290 on his 6802 and is rooted. I am not, so I wasn't sure if the steps he was taking were the same given my 6833 being completely stock.

im rooted n upgraded from 128 fw. I gets random reboots. Any fix this issue?
When does the reboots happen? When you do something specific, like playing heavy 3D games? Maybe overheating causes phone to restart. Have you checked temps of CPU?

totaly random
Is that the latest firmware available for your model?
I've experience random reboots as well after I flashed the pre-rooted TWRP with .167 system and kernel. I've also noticed that the phone reboots frequently when downloading apps in Google Play.
i had rr yesterday (always when phone goes to deepsleep) and solved with a factory reset, then installed one by one mods checking there are no reboots
Doing a clean install/flash, wiping dalvik cache, and bumping max cpu clock speed to 1.459 GHz and min to 400 GHz seem to fix the random reboots on my .167. I haven't had a rr for a week now.
Edit:
I was a doing a little more browsing and I think I found the solution over in the general forums. It sounds quite promising and seems like it's stood the test of time (which is 4 days that's been recorded) I'm in the middle of trying this method and I'll get back to you guys in a few days if it actually works.
Find the method here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/guide-fixing-random-gplay-app-install-t3338362
Good luck
Original Post:
I've even had problems with random reboots on the stock 26.1.A.1.112 Commercial & Journalist version with nothing but being rooted. So i don't think it has to do with programs.
In my honest opinion the problem seems more to do with the stock roms having a problem with root on a bootloader locked m4 aqua.
The only thing that I know can almost certainly cause a reboot is updating apps on the play store. I'll usually have at least 1 reboot during that.
I've been fortunate enough this time around only receiving a reboot about once per day which is manageable for me but it's still an underlying issue.
Any new insights into this would be great. Maybe we can collaborate.
Likewise. Although i can sometimes get about 2 days without rebooting. But i do notice that the reboots are usually when updating apps,(though not always) or randomly when battery is fully or almost fully charged.
Currently on 3.111 rooted, xposed installed.

That's awesome. You won't regret it. I gave up on having root awhile ago because of the reboots and I'm so happy that this fix works. It feels so freeing!

How do you bump the cpu clock speed?
So here is my current problem: My phone will drastically slow down when trying to multitask. I.e. I basically cant do anything when Pandora is running or ill start to get stops and skips (not connection related), and occasionally, depending on the app, the phone with freeze for an extended period, things disappear from the screen, then it goes blank and back to lock screen asking for pattern rather than fingerprint for "added security." (this is what I'm calling a crash)
Many apps will also start to lag and crash after periods of time, even running on their own. Like tumblr, meetme and facebook.
I have my CPU usage up, and idle is around 7 across the board. Once it starts to creep up above 12-15 is when ill start to get the lagging, lock ups and freezes occur around 20-30, and I've seen it spike as high as ~55 before a crash. Thing is, I'm getting lock ups and freezes while the graphical bar (the red, green, blue one) is barely moving past the CPU usage numbers.
Sorry, I'm not too sure what info to provide. This is a new problem for me. My old phone (running a 1.2ghz quad core, LG optimus G) was able to multitask better than this phone. I never had any skips or freezes while running pandora AND one of those other apps on that phone. Is this a corrupted install? Is this Octo core phone just THAT slow?! I'm not super experienced with ADB, but experienced enough to use it if need be. Any help would be appreciated.

I would first try a clean flash/factory reset/cache wipe but is there a reason why you are still using cm13 vs los14? I had no issues with cm13 but los14 is much better anyways.

Los14 was not avail when I was flashing my phone. I use it for business so its always risky to flash and what not. Never had a problem, I just don't wanna risk it. But if this is the case, may as well move to los14.

Ah I see, yeah makes sense haha
Yeah I would backup and then try a clean flash/factory reset if you want to stay on cm13, other than that, I don't know anything general you could do as far as staying on marshmallow goes.
Los14 and Los14 based roms are much smoother however and most of the bugs have been worked out by now. If you're not set on staying with marshmallow, try out some of the nougat roms :good:
Obv you'll want to backup, wipe, flash a rom, flash gapps, wipe cache/dalvik, and reboot but you prob know the drill already haha. You are on twrp or cm recovery?

Nah, I'm not stuck with MM. I like to stay with the best available, so yeah, I'll definitely go with Los14. Thanks for the input! As long as its smoother and allows me to actually multitask, I'm sold. I tend to use TWRP, but that's probably just because its what I'm used to. The interface is nice. And you can update OTA.

Yeah twrp is what I use too :good:
I've had this watch for about a year now, and have recently noticed some sever lag. I've tried factory formatting it and running with nothing installed and it still lags. It's to the point where its unusable it stutters even when just swiping away notifications.
tbh it always lagged, it never goes super smooth but that's Googles fault for only allowing to enable one of the 4 available cores on the CPU.
Have you maybe had flashed a custom kernel at one point which got removed with an update? Of course a factory reset won't help either then, only "possible" explanation I could think of now.

no i never flashed anything to it
I play a lot of games so i definitely don't want to lose performance or don't want to be kicked out of fortnite. And i really like the miui gestures but also hate the bloat and notifications not coming etc. And how can i unlock my Pocophone?
no, we are all on XDA because we have nothing better to do

What a nice reply from a brazillian fellow =)
hey OP, I'm with u, with stock rom and locked bootloader...
I would suggest u to unlock BL to solve ur notification issues, u'll need root too and flash that gps+speedview mod zip.
As far as bloat is concerned, its a serius issue, miui keeps mining our private data in d background. So I wil move frm miui forever once LOS 16 official becomes stable, will never flash n use data mining miui.
as for my experience. in todays android i see not much benefit using custom roms. most of the things we need are on the play store already.
whats more important for me now is to unlock bootloader, custom recovery and root access. to remove unnecessary things my default os has
and wat about touch problems and lag ?
I bought my first smartphone in 2011 and a while after a rooted it and never went back.
Been on custom ROMs since then and i can tell you two things for 2019:
1. There's nothing a locked-unrooted phone can do that an unlocked-rooted phone can't do.
2. There's almost nothing an unlocked-rooted phone can do that a locked-unrooted phone can't do.
The matter is which workarounds piss you off the least.
If you choose the "unlocked/rooted/custom ROM" path, be prepared to do some research and find yourself here on XDA every other day (especially in the beginning).
Personally, i tried to play clean for about 2 months now that I got my Poco (locked-unrooted). Almost everything I needed could be done.
But old habits die hard. I want more. So i'm in my 40th hour of waiting for my bootloader to be unlocked atm...
My question would be why would you like to stay with that buggy, overbloated, intrusive and crappy interface called MIUI?
Xiaomi.eu version is less bloated.
Also install malakas Kernel and your good to go, no thermal throttling with module in kernel thread. Kernel works also with Los ROM.
As for root, just run magisk and hide root from apps that sniff for it.
There are many options out there.

It is VERY worth it imho...
Sure it's a bit of a hassle to unlock the poco but just for the battery drain alone it's worth it.
I went from losing about 10% battery in a night ( all antenna's off , battery saver on ) to just 2% ...
Daytime battery drain has also massively improved.
Even if miui is to your liking you can still get a lot more benefits for unlocking and re-flashing the poco

Lol that was so long ago, don't worry i installed xiaomi eu like few weeks after and using it ever since.
I would say yes. Stock ROMs are nice in some ways, but I don't necessarily trust that they're not data mining. I've tried damn near every combination of every ROM and kernel available. I want speed, battery life and privacy. Official RevengeOS, Arter Kernel R7, F2FS, no gapps, no microg. That's my current setup and it blows stock MIUI clean out of the water.
Ultimately I guess it depends on your needs though.
All custom roms for poco is ****, all contains tons of bugs lmao,
None of them works for screencast , oxygen os,rescurretion remix rom started to bootloop after 7-8 hrs,
I ve tried rr, oxygen os, lineage os, crdroid already, all got problems,
So i installed back stock rom, rooted via magisk, and uninstalled stock apps which i dont needed.
Now i m happy
I recently got this phone with the intention of flashing it daily like I used to with my Nexus 5, however, so far, I have had no reason to run anything other than the stock MIUI. It works well, does what I need it to, and as long as it gets updated on a regular basis with security updates, will suffice.
