Multitasking/RAM - Honor 4x Real Life Review

You're busy and don't have time to wait, which is why you need to stop reading this thread and get back to organizing your Pogs. Rate this thread to express how the Honor 4x performs when multitasking. A higher rating indicates that the Honor 4x keeps many apps in memory so that they don't need to reload, and that when moving between apps, transitions are smooth and performance is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

It can accomodate 20 apps in memory and handles them pretty well.

Laggy when using social apps but that's expected.

They cant provide a stable update for Android.

Yep, I'm experiencing overall system lag and frequent app closings.
I installed ICS as well as the paid version of Nova Launcher. I love it so far, but have not re-installed any of my apps yet. Super smooth for me, no complaints whatsoever. Though the premium suite is not yet included, I'm glad to see all of the SPen functionality from the GB version is still there.
anyone try out the new ICS rom in the dev section??

No lag, very responsive, bloatware easily removed via settings > apps or Titanium BP but the only issue i had is visual vm not working. All in all, im very happy. Can't wait to get my hands on a dev modified ROMs.

Banding and blockiness has been fixed. UI is really smooth. Was on the fence whether I was keeping the note, but I think ICS has won me over. This version of Android seems very polished. Very happy so far!!!

Major Lag

Hey xda!
I just got this tablet yesterday.
Ever since it first booted, there's been terrible lag. Im planning on rooting and slapping on CM, but I'm just wondering. Is this lag normal? I mean even as I'm typing this message, the keyboard is lagging terribly.
And on a side note, is the cm nighties available in the development thread stable? Including the kernel?

No. It shouldn't be that bad. Root it and run stock deodexed. Works like a charm. Weird... Try a reset on it aswell. Just in case first boot when writing things to memory it may have got interrupted

Not real.
My P7510 is rooted but it hangs after I had booted it.
Maybe is the system problem, or some hack may cause the device to hang.

May i... You have to enable wallpaper quick render in your launcher settings to eleminate the lagg in cm
Settings > launcher > wallpaper quick render > enable.
Oc your tablet to 1400 Mhz in performance settings.
Performance settings are hidden, you can unhide them if you go to 'about tablet' settings and tap 7 times.. I think... On the build number,
But from my experience is that you don't need so much power so i stay on 1000-1200 Mhz unless i watch video's
The lagg should be pretty much over.

First thanks for your reply!
1. Yes, that's already been enabled by default.
2. I'm over clocked to 1.2. I guess I'll try OCing to 1.4.
The lag is not in the homscreen per se, it's more throughout the OS. Lockscreen, notifications, apps etc.

You might wanna try CrossBreeder http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150. It does the same as seeder, but with more functions. Be sure to read the whole OP carefully before testing it. You can also download seeder app to monitor your entropy but DONT ENABLE IT.

Still Very laggy.
I'm not really sure what you guys are comparing the lag to?
I'm using a Galaxy Nexus and I can totally see the difference.
The only place where it's smooth is the Lockscreen. Everywhere else it's choppy, low framerate

Maybe its a ROM issue? I'm not running official cm currently, so idk whether it's smooth or not. Try ganbarou or infamous aokp. Both are great ROMs.

He said he's not running official cm but i do :d well... The galaxy tab is way older than the google nexus, remember that this was one of the first decent tablets on the market 2 and a half years back, comparing a nexus with a gtab is like comparing a mouse with an elephant i think the 'lagg' what you mean is the 'lagg' what everyone has, ofcourse the gtab is slower than a nexus, but the gtab is terrible on a stock ROM, since CM, the tab has never been so fast, it can't compete to a nexus, but it can with alot of new devices out there with cm or cm based ROMs out there. And it's not like the tab hangs every 5 seconds like in stock

I've experienced the same thing. Mine is rooted on CM 10.1 nightly from a few weeks back. Even when I was religiously updating on the nightlies it is still very laggy. 2-3 seconds for the soft keyboard to come on or go away, 2-3 seconds for apps to even think about loading, choppy transitions. It is extremely noticeable and frustrating.

Quite frankly, I sometimes also have this lag issue, no matter what ROM I've tried, how many full wipes I make, still very lag. Weird thing is that for me it will go away after a few days.

I use adrenaline boost when my tab gets laggy. It drops the caches so you can get more ram when needed(very useful for gamers like me ). But in these few days of weird lag, nothing helps, even installing tweaks and mods.

Yes. But it is very minimal. If you observe closely, there is this lag when pulling down the status bar and also in transition animations. But that's it. No other effects. For me I use Darker. It's way better than LiveDisplay and has more customizations, plus there's no lag while using it.

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Honor 8 Pro before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Fairly decent SOT. Though this one, i have always said, is very subjective. It depends on what we're doing -- I could just leave the screen on with a browser that is idle and gain crazy SOT measurement. Still, I am able to get a decent SOT for my usage. I feel screen uses lots of battery. If only we can manually change screen resolution like how many other brands are doing it.
SOT is marvellous. If someone just use this phone continuously for browsing, this phone can easily give about 8 hrs of SOT.

My SOT
Was able to reach 10hrs SOT today.
That is with regular push notifications, Whatsapp, some youtube, instagram, photo edits, browsing, 20mins of VR .
This is so satisfying.

Hello, today I ran multiple Antutu tests on my Honor 9 and it always scored about 120k(20k lower than average). Do I have a defective device?
I don't think so, since honor 8 pro benchmarked higher in games than the honor 9. @Rommco05, what is your thought about this?!
