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.

I'm always on a lagfix. Right now system and data on ext4.this is not the issue I'm speaking of.
Anyone else got any ideas?

Using the latest version of the Swype beta, 3.26.92D.36178.t0.
I'm wondering if this is a Captivate issue, since I've checked it on my friends' phones and they don't have this problem.
When using the stock email client (not Gmail) and Swype, I keep getting an issue where words I just deleted keep popping back into the text area. If I keep backspacing, I can get a whole string of the deleted words. I can force it to stop by selecting the entire word (long press) and cutting it, but this is annoying. Has anyone else experienced this?
I have exact same issue. I am on apex 9.3.

This just started happening to me, too.. Though I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S2.. Latest Swype, and only in the Email app (for Exchange/IMAP email). Works fine everywhere else.
Turn off word suggestion the swype preferences.
thanks that works!
I have the same on Galaxy S2 as well - this workaround has fixed it for me! Cheers!
I was wondering if anyone with the SGS I9000 has any delay's when opening the contacts page?
I have my contacts synced to facebook and gmail and 90% of the time when I try to open my contacts i get a black screen with the status bar at the top for about 10-15 seconds before my contacts load.
Is there a fix for this?
Running Stock 2.3.3 JVH.
hmmm how many apps you have in your phone (is the memory quite full) and is your phone working well in other apps? Any other lags?

Only a few apps, phone works fine in everything else generally it's just the contacts which lag. It get's better if I restart the phone every couple of days. When I do that a lot of the time the contacts open instantly.
After running an application and then trying to open contacts takes quite a while.
Would it be worth trying a different gingerbread version?
Yeah, or you can try different kernel. Are using any task killer?

X8 with ICS 4.0.3 - tnx paul
It is the Facebook app. It is very crappy. I myself don't use it anymore. I use a bookmark to take to the Facebook browser page. It's faster than the app.

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.
Actually on my friends sgs2 its opens very quickly

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.
