[Q] Text messaging apps taking up 50% CPU time? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! I'm currently using (not the latest, but the version before) of the Alba ICS release. The strange problem I'm having is when I have any text messaging app open, it uses around 50% of my cpu, even when it's running in the background. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks!

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.

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:

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.

[SOLVED] [Q] G1: messages didn't arrived

I'm currently running COS-DS rom (latest as posted) and the Biffmod 2.2.1 kernel (latest as posted). The phone is using the radio version 2.22.27.08.
Today I noticed, that I haven't received 3 messages, I should have received. This never happended before on other radio's, roms and kernels. Could this be a radio issue, or just bad luck?
It's an issue with at least Gingerbread roms that when memory is not sufficient a message can get lost. Try GhostlySMS from hrk (you can find it in the market). He wrote a small program that is able to prevent you from lost messages.

Thank you for the answer!
I tested it today without ghostly sms and received every message I wrote from my second phone. Without the app none of the test messages arrived on my G1.
well, when I am using Ghostly SMS, then I don't need to enable "keep messaging app in memory"?
keep in memory
I didn't notice, that there is an option for "keeping sms app in memory". Where did you find that option? I discovered a "keep MMS-App in memory", but I think, that the sms-app is meant.
I think, it is save to use both, ghostly sms app and above option.
I am using COS-DS Gingerbread and in Performance settings is Lock messaging app in memory (Avoid lost messages on low memory situations).
But I don't want to keep app in memory, I need every megabyte and I'm not using sms very often, well I am searching for solution with lowest memory usage
2708
Maybe you should apply the "14MB RAM hack" (located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139) and using a "2708-kernel".
You will receive ~112MB of RAM and you could also use compcache and/or swap to get a sufficient performance on your G1.

I've been running the "2708" SPL/Radio/kernel combo and I still lose messages, that's why I wrote that app.
@AnDiSa: thanks for the "advertisement"

FYI, I've got that hack and kernel, it was the first thing I've done, when that ram hack was available and also, I was using swap, now I'm trying compcache
I have just been using the lock messenger app in memory and it fixed the problem.
The new COS (17th April) seems to be a lot faster and apparently has some low memory "tweaks". I have tested this load without the lock, and so far it works...but I still don't trust it. Anyone else had any luck with the new loads?
COS latest release

I flashed the COS release (17th of April) yesterday and I don't think, that I lose sms since then, because the stock sms app announced every message to me (of course I enabled the "keep SMS app in memory" option). To be sure, that I don't miss any messages I continue to use the ghostly sms app.

Delay Opening Contacts

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?

Background apps

Hey everyone
I've LG optimus 2x and I'm really tired and frustrated of Facebook and messenger app running in background.
1) it uses a lot of ram in my memory and phone is really slow.
2) It dries a lot of battery. Horrible. Yesterday I've uninstalled facebook app from my phone and I could finally use my phone without any single lag. First time in a few months that I use this phone, after that. Usually battery goes on 99% in about standby, now my phone is already 4h on standby and it's still on 100%. Finally phone works as it should be
So, question is, is there any good app or way to stop running these apps in background? I've already tried service disable but when I disabled some services app crashes and it was useless. So cross app disable and autokill apps.
If your rooted you should try greenify or install a custom rom like tonyp's PA Rom.

Hangouts battery consumption

Hello ,
During the last 5 days (or so) , i have unusual high consumption from the hangouts app.
The thing is that i never use it for my sms messages , and i never even tap it (to open).
It is working in the background and it seems i can't do anything about it.
The issue remains even after a reboot.The greenify app cann't find the hangouts app so i can freeze it.
Any ideas ?
Edit: Stock 5.1.1 and rooted
