[Q] My phone works slowly - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I have a problem..
My X8 with GingerDX v7 works very slowly... Gangstar west coast hustle, Dungeon hunter and all these games are very laggy.
The boot animation is too slow. Advanced task killer says, I have about 55MB Free RAM... Is anything wrong?
Thx for answers.

try full wipe on the xRecovery..mine just work fine here..

I'm having the same problem, a lot of apps are running slowly, I installed "Autostarts" and stopped some unnecessary system apps from run automatically and I manually stopped some system apps with "Super Task Killer", but my phone stills slow

But if i delete "Gmail" and/or "Google Maps", for example, i will probably get system instability and random Force Closes.
Correct me if i'm wrong

I installed v008 and full wipe my phone and now it is faster.
My phone was with v006 and then i updated to v007 without doing a full wipe, probably because of that my phone was slow. Now with v008 and full wipe, i reinstalled my apps and the phone is now faster than ever =D
But if my phone turns slow again i will try that ;P thanks man
BTW, sorry for my bad english, i'm portuguese, if you don't understand anything just say and i try to explain with other words xD

There is a thread in the X8 development forums, there are some tips there.

Jerky performance problem, is it RAM or too many apps etc?

Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone experience jerky performances.
I have about 10 pages of apps installed mostly games and stock apps.
When I use advance app killer, usually i see stock apps eg. facebook, browser, ebook, etc.. When I kill them all, performance doesn't improve much.
If the 10 pages are the reason, any way to know which is running in background and sucking up resources?
The performance of your Gtab is jerky coz of the apps that run in the background even if you close them they restart.. u cn use startup auditor app to increase performance... if all fails hard reset nd install only required Apps not the apps u don't use but run behind nd eat up RAM nd battery

a certain app may be using up too much background resources. try uninstalling the culprit. detct it by trial and error
I was in a similar situation until I last had to factory reset my Tab due to the whole issue with Google Apps Google Accounts not having access to Google Checkout on the Android Market.
Installed over 100 apps on my first day with the Tab (over-excited, I know ), and realized that my Tab started to lag when opening the app drawer. The problem became most apparent when I shut down or rebooted the Tab; it would literally take minutes to boot up, and often it would freeze and force close my launcher several times in a row.
I chalked it down to having too many apps, but later read that many apps start themselves up on boot even if they had no reason to (e.g. Amazon, Aldiko, etc.)
I've since only installed apps that I would really use throughout the day, but would you guys say that so long these apps do not run on startup (say I disable them using the Autostarts app), I can install a hundred or even two hundred apps without the boot up lag?
So there's no way to see which app is running in background and % memory used, similar to windows task manager?
When I use Advanced task killer, are those 'apps shown' considered as background apps or are background apps invisible?
From my RAM manager, I see like 180+ to 200mb out of 400+mb. I think that's the remaining RAM ?
Anyone knows the stock RAM out of the box?
It might be because carriers pre load crap on them

Installed the free startup app and found the culprits ... GAMELOFT games. They are huge in size and think they eat up the memory in background/at startup.
After disabling, all back to normal.

Why on earth would you want to detect it by trial and error when there is plenty of apps you can use to find it specifically?

Use a app like system panel, It will show you all the running apps and there memory/cpu consumption etc.

Launcher pro plus restarts after i done playing games !!!

Why does my launcher pro plus v0.8.3 often restarts after i done playing a game ???? It happened lately after i moved some apps into my sd card...it really annoys me when i want to change to another game, making me wait for the apps to load...and adding to the ignorance is the apps in the sd card will take about a minute or 2 to finish loading...Any ideas to how to solve this problem ??? Your help is highly appreciated !!!!
Model : Sgs I9000
Rom : Darky v9.5
Kernel : Speedmod k13d
It's not so much of a problem, as it is a feature, of Android itself. It's called Memory Management! And if your game is using a lot of RAM, it is bound to terminate some background applications, in this case, your third party launcher. It might help though, if your launcher app is NOT on sdcard. Also, ensure it is the primary launcher. Beyond that, we can't really mod our phone for more RAM But we can give CM7 a shot...

hmm....after hearing ur advice...i went n find some other launchers and i stumbled on to "Zeam" which i believe is a light-weight launcher...but the "problem" still remains the same...issit because i got too much apps installed???
On ADW launcher u have the ability to keep it running all the time. Just by turning on the option System Persistent under General Behavior-->System Settings that would avoid the launcher from closing
Try that one

It's not about how many apps you have installed. It's more about how many apps are actively running background services...

Do you have another solution ??
The lag can happen if your ram is full as u installed many apps which run in the background.
And also, if your internal sd card is full, then this will also make lag.
For your ram, check it before u enter the game. I think u need free ram at least 150 or 200 mb for this game.

Problem solved. It is nova3 and Chainfire3d driver conflict. Chinefire3d driver must be deleted from Chainfire3d app. Nova3 looks very well on i9000.

Phone cuts out during games?

From what i've read seems like a regualr problem, Just picked the phone myself, But when playing things like Temple Run 2, Candy Crush & Tapped out, the phone just cuts out.
Problem has happened with Stock ROM, and on CM 10.1.
What am I best doing?
Sometimes apps can close on their own if Android is running out of free memory. Check to see how many processes you have running and free up some memory before you start the game by closing running apps . There are so many memory cleaner & app manager apps but the best I have found is a very basic app called fmr memory cleaner and then I use SystemCleanup by inteks which is the best cache cleaner out of so many that I've tried. So if this is the reason your apps are closing this should fix the problem.
U shud try a kernel with no ram hack

I use GO Task Manager to clean up my RAM memory. They have a nice little widget which shows the percentages of RAM in use. Click the button (might have to click it 2 times every once in a while) and you'll see the percentage go down. This might help clear up some RAM for your games.
If this doesn't help, try reinstalling the ROM, preferably with a full whipe (remember to back up your data, just in case).

Make sure data is in right folder, you can't just use a random folder. Correct path is /shell/emulated/0 or /storage/emulated/0 for sdcard data, .obb files however have to go in /shell/emulated/obb
