Lag issues... After root... - Galaxy Tab 8.9 General

Anyone still experiencing lag after root?
I am on ATT LTE.. And after root with adw launcher ex...
I froze all the bloatware...and still feels a little laggy...
I am used to ipad 2 smooth... And still no bell dump for our LTE units....
Man.. I like the weight of it and size... But the lag and no dev... Really sucking...
I think HC just plain sucks. But dont know if ICS will be smoother....

believe you me that ICS will be a lot smoother.
its showing in the alphas already.
that being said it sucks bad that there are no LTE devs around. hope someone capable picks up the device and starts working on it.

Yeah... But we are at the mercy of att and samsung updates.... Which their track record is... I say 9 months from now... Even the samsung galaxy 2 which is their most popular phone still havent gotten an update... While xoom already got ICS... Maybe because google bought motorola......

I've had no lag. Did you root with the oc kernel? Have you tried other launchers?

Xoom got the update because the US WIFI only Xoom is GED.

What does GED mean. I didnt use oc kernel since i have to wipe the whole thing. I dont know how to do a complete back up.. I am waiting for a bell dump so i can turn it into a wifi hotspot.. Then maybe i will do a wipe and hopefully will have oc in a bell rom.....

Wow, that's one MOTHER****** of a long sentence.
You should flash the DOC_KALPIK FROYO JP6/JM6 V6 custom ROM. This ROM is the best I have tried so far. Instructions are on the 2nd or 3rd post and follow them to the letter!
Major credit to Docrambone and Kalpik.
You'll thank me later!
FroYo sucks bigtime for me as well. I've got a fresh jp6 with voodoo and everything still seems slower than jf3 with voodoo. Especially the browsing.. Samsung messed it up, again.

Well benchmark results of oclf are way higher than the ones of voodoo. But voodoo fixes the things u really use. Benchmark is just a stress test 4 ur phone but its far away from really using ur phone.
Did u check repartition while flashing? Coz what ur telling sounds like there is some bad software running in the background. And belive me i know what im talking about i had to do factory reset today after trying to download galerians rom for psx (downloaded @ rombuddy psx) and i wasnt able to locate the malicous file on my phone.
Im on jpm with voodoo and it works perfectly. Psx4droid and all.the gameloft games (asphalt hd, nova and gangsters) are running without problems. Just some psx roms are not but thats problem of the rom amd not froyo.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
so jpm runs more smoothly even with a lower quad rating and yes i repartitioned and lost like a 100 and something apps lol i will try jpm for a bit then see how that runs if its not great ill try the custom jp6 see how that runs. last time i installed jpm after jp3 using "JPM_JPM_U_JPM" as pda it worked but is this the right way.
thnx for your replys
Yes it runns more smothely (in my oppinion) but still ive put voodoo on coz there is some lagging. And jp6 isnt really different from jpm (at least I cant feal any difference between em)
@phandroid
There is a fix for the browser coz samsung really did mess up with that. Just search the forum for froyo browser fix
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
I reckon reason why froyo is slow for some is that Samsung put in extra bull**** startup process's. Hence giving you less ram. Disable them with startup manager and install 336meg free ram kernel as froyo comes standard now with only 300 megs readable. Also I am seeing lag after installing jfs lag fix via the universal lag fix kernel. Starting to think all lag fixes screw up after a week. Prob due to fragmentation. I have to reformat every 3 weeks due to data corruption with lag fixes. But without a affix the damned phone is slow as a freakin Nokia phone. Screw you Samsung
Sent from my GT-I9000
Yeah it's a shame that Samsung is able to deliver such great hardware but screw up such a great operating system.
Too bad voodoo won't work with the 340 MB kernel...
Well, let's just hope for another FroYo release.

I don't recall Samsung EVER saying that, and that sounds like an assumption.
And forget about quadrant. It doesn't test realistic workloads. You might have a I/O write speed of 6gb/sec, a read speed of only 1mb/s, and for all we know, Quadrant might treat them equally (even though the phone might barely perform any writing at all). Use it as a guide, but unless you know EXACTLY how it tests the hardware, and the workloads you need, the results can be deceptive.
Also, I messed around with an iPhone 4 2 weeks ago and it was laggier than my SGS even without lagfix in JPM. Sure the scrolling was smoother, but switching between apps was a joke.
Give JPO a try, and wait for stock mods. But personally, I recommend against using filesystem conversion mods.
The ram is a problem for some people I guess, but I'd imagine it depends on what you are using your phone for..

[Q] Does anyone NOT have the reboot/crash issues?

Hi,
I'm seriously considering going out and buying this phone but I'm really not sure after seeing all the threads with people saying that they go back to their phone and it's switched off and requires a battery pull.
This seems to be a fairly serious problem but I was just wondering if it is happening to everyone who owns the O2x?
Please let me know if you are unaffected by the problem!

It really is a great piece of hardware. I'm not that fond of LGs software, but that can be solved with a custom ROM.

So, how do you get on Rusty, you seem like a very experienced XDA member.. how is the O2X treating you?
i am not the best guy to talk to . i just got the phone used yesterday for very cheap. i figured that if i dont like it, i can sell it for the same money or even make a little more and get the SGS2.
but so far. no crashes/reboots.. been more than 24 hours. using custom rom as well.
i got the phone for 300$. the stickers still on it. i figure if i decide to sell it. i wont lose at all..
so far. i am really loving the phone. i love the UI of LG. but its slow. it laggs. i wonder if there is a custom rom with the LG UI but smooth one.
right now i am on modaco. with 3000 quadrant. if i switch to google launcher. phone is smooth. if i switch to LG one, it laggs a little in the home screen. i tried the Tmobile version 2.3 on my optimus. its super smooth. but i cant make phone calls on it lol.
and i had a screen problem with the cayanogen rom. for some reason my screens dims and go bright on its own.
oh yeah. i also have a screen light leak/bleed. but it doesnt bother me much because the only way i can notice it if the room is dark and i have a black wallpaper.
Mine went slow once on stock, once isn't bad though. The froyo Rom does seem rushed in truth, (I have random battery drains from my Dialer which makes no sense) but I'm sure Gingerbread will have everything sorted.

Pretty well to be honest. I use CM7 nighties (I bought the phone specifically because it was going to be supported by them) so I cannot expect a bug free experience at this early stage.
I am enjoying it though, I came from a Nexus One that had bugger all internal storage and a poor digitizer, so proper multi-touch and 1.5GB spare for apps is fantastic.
The IPS screen is great if you can overlook the associated backlight bleed (it's not just the 2X, look at iOS devices as well, same thing), the GPS chip is excellent, I can get locks in place that my N1 couldn't.
The stock ROM is turd, frankly. It's fast, until you install something, then it becomes unusable for a bit until it's finished with the app... quality coding
fine
i have my lg optimus 2x now for over a month, no problems here.
i stil have the stock rom.
first v10a. no problem
later v10b. no problem
I have had 2 O2x now for litle over a month
one of them has had BSOD and restarts randomly - the other had none, atleast for the first month - but these past days this one has now also rebooted a couple of times.
Both are completely stock - not rooted and not using any custom roms.
Only using a different launcher which do help make the BSOD and Reboots less often.

I been over there as well. Most of the problems on the SGS 2 are either software or can be solved with apps. My O2X had so many problems that I could never use the phone and wifi at the same time. Bleeding, constant reboots/freezes crashes even with Custom ROMs. Since Im in afghanistan now I need a phone that will work not just when it feels like it. I will say that when the O2X was working it was a sweet phone. I just dont see the same problems with the SGS2 and Samsung tends to be better in the service side instead of LG leaving us pissing in the wind waiting for a "possible update" that might fix things or not.
guess i´m a lucky guy, too!
i have no crashes/reboots and absolutely NO backlight bleeding
Mine is also working properly.

Got my streak back

I got my dell streak 7 back. I had given it to my daughter but she didn't take care of it so I took it back from her(she lives with her mom). Wow there are all new people here. everyone that was here seems to be gone. Did anyone ever get cwm working with hc? Once we get an official release from dell I'll work on it. (For those that don't know me I ported over cwm for the s7)
So with hc it's going to update the wifi only model? I don't use 4g or the radio so is there a wifi rom somewhere I can flash so I get the ota when it comes out?

What did you do after the root?

So, as most of you know a root for the AHD came out yesterday. I wanted to say thank you to everyone that worked hours and hours on getting the root, even though Dan gets the money lol. But there are many new comers to android out there, including myself. Coming from the iphone I can tell you everything you can do once you jailbreak and iDevice, but what all have you guys done after you rooted your device. I have owned one android and played around for a while on many, but most of which were completely unlocked and had new roms installed ect. ect. So I thought it would be a good idea for people to be able to post what all they have used the root for so far, so maybe we can use those ideas and make this phone even more awesome.
The first thing I did do was calibrate my battery and have noticed a little bit better life today than I do most days.
I also uninstalled some of AT&T's annoying bloatware (which IMO belongs on NO phone)
So share what you did and give some ideas to all the readers!!!
Thanks again Dan for the root and I know Matt worked for hours and hours on it, so I would like to thank you too

Lol I was thinking the same thing. The EB40 is an awesome upgrade and I def considering it. I just am at home and work where my phone can be charged all of the time anyways. Not to mention once we get some bloat free roms that run more efficiently, the EB20 should be okay.

[T807AUCU1BOD4] Official Lollipop 5.0.2 OTA For AT&T Galaxy Tab S 10.5

The OTA is huge, to the tune of 1.1 GB, but I finally got it downloaded and installed. There are lots of UI tweaks and performance seems really good. Plus, the radio bug introduced with the NK1 update is fixed, so the cellular radio shouldn't randomly shut off anymore.
So far, I'm pretty happy with it. What say ye, fellow XDAers?

Not giving me a choice. Starts downloading as soon as I connect to Wifi. And I f*&#ing HATE TouchWiz. First thing I do on a Samsung device is install a launcher with even the most basic of customization options and disable the S-anything bloatware. SwiftKey is a better keyboard and Google (ya know; the stuff that's included with Android) is a better everything else.
Of course that's just my opinion but you asked why I don't want the update.
