[Q] Can this issue be fixed somehow? Contacts , dialer , gallery laggy acces - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I flashed a lot of roms since I bought this phone. They got faster and faster and more stable than I imagined when I was on the 1st firmware JF3. But one problem about the phones laggyness seemed to stay. The Contacts, Messaging, dialer and gallery apps don't load quick enough.Especially contacts... whereas in other phones like Nexus, Iphones, even lower class Androids they load instantly. It is the badly optimized framework or what? The only rom that didn't have this problem was Cyanogen mod beta 3.
Can anyone mod these apps to make them load quicker? Is no one bugged by this ?
Thx.

Anyone else got any ideas?

Try using alternate apps as handcent and see if the problem exists..

I have tried GO SMS,handcent,chompsms.Even tried to use both apps together.But didn't help.
It seems that only a few people have the same problem.
Now,I'm going to clean my phone.......

I have the same problem. How you resolved that?
Use CM7, it have an option to keep the SMS application in the memory no matter what, never missed a SMS (not that I receive much SMS's anyway ) using it.
The problem with CM7 and other Gingerbread ROMs is that due to the Droid/Milestone's limited RAM, memory management is fairly aggressive to the point where important apps are being killed due to low memory situations. This is why you're seeing so many threads about Gingerbread ROM users being unable to receive text messages.
The best thing to do is to run the SuperCharger v6 script as outlined in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12058585
You may also want to look into this thread over at DF for suggested minfree values:

In system\build.prop edit this line
sys.keep_app_1=com.jb.gosms
You won't lose messages anymore
No need to set messaging app persistent in cm settings

The same situation is in froyo. I have stock 2.2 and I can't receive messages when i'm playing angry birds or browsing web and using flash.
Using AMM could help to an extent. However, if/when you root (you said you were stock Froyo but I'm not sure if you rooted), the SuperCharger script is a far better solution.
Give each a try.
Yes I'm rooted and i'm SuperCharger script user. Any minfree values and also AMM don't help me. Sometimes is better, sometimes not but at all there is still a problem with receiving messages when my phone has low free ram space.

[Q] Picture viewer problems

I have a Samsung galaxy S i9000 with gingerbread 2.3.4 installed and rooted and nothing else installed.
When i go in to gallery to view my pictures and i swype to go from one to the next one it does not move smooth like it did in froyo it`s not a fluid move its a interrupted movement. Did not have this problem on froyo. i re-installed the os powered off the phone stopped most apps and services but the problem did not go away. Any suggestions ? It did this before and after i rooted it. did it on fresh install of 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 on 2.2 froyo did not had this problem. Any suggestions ? except the one that says go back to froyo ?
Well, just a suggestion, use Picturen Lite or Quickpic.
I know this doesn't actually answers your question, but the stock gallery is not that great.
I use QuickPic. It's without doubt the fastest and least cluttered gallery app out there. It's free but would pay for it! Give it a try

[Q] lag in the social hub Widgets while updating?

Hey everyone. Just wondering if you guys also have a kind of lag after hitting the update button on the on the social hub widget? For me, even over Wi-Fi takes a while strange really. Do any of you guys also suffer from this? I have a Facebook and twitter account logged in.

The issue with scrolling is really only in some apps check out your SMS list. My bank sends me a message for every transaction and the SMS application is buttery smooth. It must be a programming error with the apps themselves. Try it out.

Delay in opening of Phone and Contacts

I'm running stock ics 4.0.3 rooted with GL Notecore Kernel v 3.15.
i'm getting a lag in opening the dialer and contacts. Is there any way this can be corrected ? Please help.
Have u tried to clear contacts data or cache from settings.. applications...contacts. ?
U may also try another dialer other than stock dialer and contacts as Go Contacts, this may solve all of ur problems..

same here...I've just learned to live with it.
There must be some way to speed up the process. can't we odex the two applications alone for better performance ?
Edit : Can someone who can work with the file-system odex phone and contacts .apk based on this and repost the files.

Exactly, but with the note running better specs, it must open faster. I don't know what's wrong in here. Hope this thread finds a solution.
Can someone turn the spot light in here. please.
Help wanted. Some dev please help.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I'm no dev but it's common for the contacts or phone application to open with a 1 or 2 seconds delay if they are started for the first time. Every succeding start is considerably faster. Do you use a task killer? Next time you want to open the contacts or phone application take a look at a task manager whether the corresponding apps are already running in the background or at least cached. If they are they should open almost immediately. If they are not what you described is absolutely normal.

Hi guys,
I was experiencing the same problem so I tried some other apps and I found one that in my opinion is the best - exDialer (it's free)
It opens very fast, has all functionallity of the stock dialer, and has also skinning capabilities, which I set to ICS (blue fonts on black background).
Give it a try - I hope it helps you!
I tried it. But then having two applications to perform the same task becomes useless ri8. Just one doubt, why a powerful device with 1.4Ghz process. A full gig if Ram take so long to process a simple app and that too a system app.?

I don't know the reason of the lag - but it is there and is really annoying. I had exactly the same thought as you - but I think this is related to TouchWiz UI.
Regarding having two apps for the same task is no problem to me - I just defined the exDialer as default and the stock dialer never comes up again.
And for me is common to have more than one app for the same task - I have 3 browsers, 3 e-book readers, 2 RSS organizers, 2 file browsers, and so on.
What I do is to try many different apps and eventually I find the ones that best suit my needs and then uninstall the others.

Does the stock s3 contact app open faster? If yes we can use that.

I had the same problem, while on Criskelo rom. I've gone to 4.0.4 , rooted and speedmod 3-6 kernel , and now I dont have this issue anymore. However, I belive that if you close your dialer, or contacts by using the back key, instead of Home key, you will always have this "lag". You should close your contacts and phone app , by pressing the home key.

[Q] How to decrease lag in keypad

Overall jb performance seems good to me with lq4 and siri rc4. The only problem is the huge amount of lag in phone keypad, logs, messaging.
They are the main apps in a mobile phone according to me....!!! In an emergency they take 5-6 sec to load properly. I have tried every kernel and its the issue with each kernel.
I tried supercharging, locking an app in memory by writing some lines in build.prop but no help.
I get very upset that even micromax or any other phone have no lag in phone keypad or messages.
Any way to permanently lock these ***** apps to memory.?

It is not connected to kernels, speed of phone... It is sh***y dialer app I think.
I am testing this app, to see how it will act. So far so good.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.modoohut.dialer&hl=sr
Any more suggestions. And a good 3 party app for messages.
And one more question if i freeze the orignal phone app and message app can i use 3 party app?
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda premium
dialerone is really really fast (but had to customize colors a bit )
currently using go sms lite, it's ok but not perfect so i'm listening proposals about this one
i'm using supercharger script to bulletproof gosms (set oom -17) but i think it's doing nothing... maybe something else has to be bulletproof also, maybe some content provider, i don't know... or i'm doing it wrong...
