Lag + occasional freezing

Sup,
I experience lag frequently. A lot of times I can feel something in the phone spinning or vibrating as it comes out of the lag. the vibration isn't as rigorous as the notification vibrations. Also sometimes it will lag but not come out of it and completely freeze then restart itself. The freeze/restart seems to happen when surfing the web.
I'm running serendipity 7 build 2. Its happened on serendipity 6.x also. Not sure if its rom related or just my phone failing. Anyone experience this?
I should add that I have 9.31gb available out of 13 total.

I've had similar lag and reboot issues on Serendipity 7 don't know why, but you can always just try another ROM and see if the problem persists.

A couple things that come to mind, one is the vibrating sounds like something is F/C'ing. Take a look at your applications, what is running, do you know what you're trying to run when it vibrates? Also take a look at your system resources, I get lag if I have too many items running and system mem gets too low
"Most" issues tend to be software related so that is where I would focus my attention. If all else fails, reinstall your ROM

It happens the most when I am browsing the web. I have been using xscope for a long time. First the free version and now pro version since it was faotd on amazon. It happened with both versions. although xscope could be the problem its not the only culprit cuz it happens when im not browsing the web also. Maybe I should install logcat and check it out after the next time it happens...?

I noticed today that it would sometimes vibrate when exciting out the gallery with the back button. I was a couple folders deep and hit back like 3 times so its like it got over-loaded or something but didn't fc.

Lag & auto shut down
My captivate with serendipity 7 initially seemed perfect. But after a couple of weeks of usage, it started becoming slow. I face quite a bit of lag, automatic shutdowns and poor battery. I do have a few apps running in the background, but there was no lag when i was using cognition 4 or CM7. When my phone shuts down automatically, I have to take the battery out and put it back in to restart it. Holding just the power button doesn't switch it on.

Not to be an ass but you sorta jacked my topic. I'm not experiencing sleep of death. My problem has to do with the phone freezing then restarting itself.
Just don't want more posts further veering of course and hindering a solution for me. Thanks.

Just an update...
I haven't had any freeze+ restarts since my first post. Still some occasional lag but not nearly
as much or as bad as it was.
Funny thing is I havent changed anything.

[Q] [ROM][ICS 4.0.3][Unoffical Port] AOKP Build23 Q/A

Hi there everybody
I've installed [ROM][ICS 4.0.3][Unoffical Port] AOKP Build23 by vibranturk ROM.
Problems I found
1. android.media.process crashing always /almost every minute/
2. cant get in to market /meaning couldn't install any app yet/
3. cant get in to gallery
4. cant get in to music player
4. cant take secreenshot by default setting
5. sound is enabled but doesn't work. /not even play ringtones /
6. screen brightness not enough for day light
7. cant take photo by camera /android.media.process crashing/
Actually ROM is amazing. But without market its feels nothing.
Has anybody have same problem and about how to solve etc?
PS: I flashed 2 times.

You should start from fresh cuz not one problem that you stated has occured to me.....only bug is that when i reboot the batt % is off..
market works perfectly
...everything does atually
idk but just start fresh and wipe wipe wipe between flashes
i wipe before and after the flash
even flash twice just to make sure
***Dont mind the sig pic... im running this rom at the moment and its working flawlessly

OK. I'll try tomorrow. Thanks for quick reply.
I've been fighting with this 2 days. Today is day off for me.

Well. Today I installed again. This time it works fine. Everything went normal. Only one unusual thing is my cappy feels slow. asphalt 6 freezing sometimes. is there any way speed up my ICS?

Use Glitch v14, the included has some slight lag and glitch fixed it up. You can also LiveOC which allows for overclocking of the CPU and GPU.

signal
Has anyone found the solution for the gray\blue signal switching? So far as I can tell it is caused by the wifi; whenever I go from mobile network to wifi data, the signal bars go gray. The only work-around has been to switch airplane mode on and off. Would switching to the newly released glitch kernel do the trick?
EDIT: I have found out the Google services problem (gray vs. blue signal) is only happening when I join a network which requires a redirect authentication OR if the power saver is enabled.

Just got this phone and flashed it with - AOKP Build23 by vibranturk ROM
I have been reading for awhile now before I received the phone. Thanks vibranturk for all the development here! Excellent roms!
1) When I start the camera app from app on homescreen and from unlock - the phone goes into a black screen
The camera app worked fine again after a reset (just turning off and back on) but after awhile it does the same thing - black screen.
During the black screen, I can press the home button to return back to homescreen
** Resetted again, and all seems well at the moment and still fine after 1 hour!
2) I am not sure if this is the rom or just my screen. Did not notice it at first when i flashed the rom. Turning on the screen to unlock the phone, ie when the light starts, i get this bright green full screen flash for like a second. It does not happen everytime and no pattern of when it happens either.
Anyone else having these problems?
Can someone please update the 'AOKP thread in Captivate Android Development' with my issues, just trying to help with the development.
For the signal blue/grey thing, Seems like it goes blue for me when i have data signal coming in, either wifi or data enabled - lights up both wifi signal (only if wifi is on) and signal bars blue.
I have power saver is enabled as well.

My only issues so far are: vibrate + sound doesn't work, touch screen is over sensitive on certain games, and sometimes using Swype in messaging doesn't input if app was already in foreground when replying.(can be fixed by minimizing and reopening the app) otherwise it's works great. fast/smooth and great battery life.

[Q] Lock screen lag

Hello everybody.
I just got myself an P880 a few days ago. All in all, I am rather content, but there is something that bothers me sorely: the lock screen lag. There is a delay of about 3 seconds between pressing the power button and the screen coming to life. I've had this on stock ICS, stock JB and now on CM 10.1.2. I tried different lock screen and also no lock screens - all to no avail. I even checked another P880 (it was running stock ICS) and it was the same story there. Yet I can't really find anyone else reporting this problem, so maybe I'm doing something wrong? I don't know!
I took a video of my old SGS and the P880 next to each other: youtu.be/RyrgdiLGhoU
All hints and suggestions are appreciated!

There is no real answer to this question, my 4x is fine, perhaps half a second delay from pressing the lock button to seeing my lockscreen.
However there are many contributing factors to what could cause this, for example the phone may be locking to a certain frequency too low and it's finding it hard to come back from, if you lock the screen whilst on a RAM hogging app it will also lag, background processes will also slow it down, for example, always clear your recent apps (Long hold Home button) and clear them, if you have root access (jb only i think) Then try using greenify and freezing background apps you dont want either running/receiving notifications from.
If you are still on stock you may want to remove bloatware (apps you don't use) Which will also be churning away in the background slowing down your phone, make sure in your settings you will also have that there is no delay and that lock button INSTANTLY locks the phone and then try again and post back if it's helped or not, if not then we should start looking at other factors it could be, perhaps a week tegra variant and we should look into a custom kernel and raising the minimum frequency a tad and seeing whether or not that will help.

I maybe should have mentioned that it isn't every time that there is this delay, maybe every second time on average - sometimes more often, sometimes not at all.
Having had this problem with different firmwares and also with a cleanly wiped phone, even with a fresh install of CM when I hadn't even flashed the Gapps package, makes me think that this very likely isn'ta bloatware issue.
Changing the CPU governor to performance had no effect either.

SnapDragon severe hiccups, stutters.

I've got a N910G (SD805) and from new it's had these slowdowns hiccups that I've read people attribute to TW.
This is my 7th Samsung device and it's the only time I've experienced them.
Symptoms: Everything runs fine, then randomly freezes... sometimes I think I haven't tapped properly and when it recovers it's like I've pressed the softkeys or screen multiple times. The hiccups happen with any program at any time... like rootexplorer just scrolling up and down a file list.
I have a SM-G906S which also has an SD805, and it's never frozen, lagged or hiccups.
- I've done a factory reset.
- Downloaded/applied the latest fw from sammobile.
- Removed knox, and most of the other bloat.
- Edited build.prop, + applied all 3C Toolbox Pro optimizations.
Does anyone one have any idea what might be causing the issues? I noticed Flossy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdYuj2NSZZ0) is experiencing the same issue.

Try increasing the minimum ram available. Autokiller Memory Optimizer does that and it isn't a task killer. This app simply increases how much ram is available and doesn't change how android manages ram. When it gets to a point where there is almost no ram available, the system gets slow until it frees more. I've been using the custom setting of 100 instead of default 84 and never had the issue, but I'm not sure this is the problem though, but you can give it a try.

do you have installed xposed? Wanam? if so, you need to freeze S-Health in titanium backup as it totally crashes with those. i had insanely lags and even sms messages was troubling because of this.
read, post 22 on page 3 should get you going. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/xposed-t2904937

Thanks, it's not a lack of memory problem bcos it happens just after booting.
Sometimes apps while installing (Playstore and filesystem) also freeze or stall... again never seen that before.
I've also tried Wanam's TouchWiz DVFS, but that hasn't helped either.
Also I use Wanam's Xposed, and it has a CRT type screen off effect... well has also frozen for a couple seconds... so you can see just the center bit of screen white.
I'm reluctant to think it's a hw problem.... but ain't seen no crap like this before.
Don't get me wrong the phone still works fine, it just stutters now and again.
Also I can only get 44000-45000 score on antutu, whereas the G906s which is clocked 200MHz lower scores 46000-47500.

S-Health is completely removed... heart rate monitor is total junk.
I have my doubts about DCMprovider, it's using a bit of resources.
ro.securestorage.support=false
and freezing DCMprovider.apk seems to have helped... I haven't noticed as many stutters.

Did you do it in the order described in the post? If anything, flash new firmware from sammobile, and do it as described. Report back
My phone was useless until I did this, because I enabled s health. Also, have you disabled secure storage?

I didn't reinstall xposed, just update build.prop with ro.securestorage.support=false.
But I previously deleted:
system\priv-app\HealthService.apk
system\priv-app\HealthService.odex
system\priv-app\SHealth3_5.apk
system\priv-app\SHealth3_5.odex
build.prop has a couple other security settings like
ro.security.mdpp....
Any idea what these do?
Thanks for the "ro.securestorage.support" link.

Now TW is crashing when launching any app; settings work.
:crying:

Ouch, I think why the xposed ****s up the s health and make phone lag is some sensors going nuts, it's tied in with other things as well and consumes a lot of resources, that's why you should do it in the recommended order previously mentioned. Titanium Backup and flash new firmware with Odin.

In the Developer's Options, there's a setting to reduce animation, or force GPU rendering, just giving you more ideas things to play around with.

Yes the Ext SD is also causing a stutters... are there any updated drivers, or tweaks?
What I don't get is why the G906S is SOOO much faster, the only difference between the 2 is S-Pen and 4.4.2 vs 4.4.4.
Pressing the home button there's a 0.5~1 second delay before it goes Home (S-Voice disabled); G906S ~0.2sec delay.
S-View case, you have to keep it open for ~2 seconds for it to switch on; G906S 0.2 sec delay.
Searching through file system using Root Explorer, is also much faster on the G906S.
What I am getting at with the comparison... well I think Samsung have added or updated something which has introduced significant lag.

C6903 Xperia Z1, baseband 8974-AAAAANAZQ-10270045-39, random crashes, please help

Hi there,
I have a C6903 with 16GB of storage. Baseband 8974-AAAAANAZQ-10270045-39. It ran fine under CM12.1 from last year. I recently updated to a CM12.1 nightly from August of this year. After that I started having problems with random crashes.
The phone would either freeze during operating, not responding to any input. I had to hard reset by holding the power button for a long time. This shuts the phone down. Then I start it and it boots up. Or the crash happens, when I am not using the phone, resulting in a black screen and an unresponsive phone. The fix is the same, shutting the phone down with a long press on the power button and then starting it up.
I switched from CM12.1 to AOSP Jaguar LP 5.1.1 from August (I haven't updated to September yet). I was crash free for three weeks, but now I am back with the same crashes. I found four crash logs in /data/anr, but I can't make much sense of them. I have them attached to the post.
The change in behavior when I install a new rom makes me think this could be software related, but getting the same crashes with two very different roms makes it look like a hardware issue.
What do you guys think? I don't want to go back to stock for testing, because I value privacy a lot and XPrivacy is so much work to set up right, IMHO. I like the privacy managers included with Jaguar or CM12.1 a lot. They are so much easier to use. But if I have to, I will go back to stock. Any other ideas? Can anyone interpret the crash logs? Is there anything useful there? Should I test something else?
Please help. Thank you for reading this post.

Your attachments show only general info about OS, but nothing related to freezing/crashes. Based on the fact that you were problem free on Jaguar for about 3 weeks, you might have the following:
You installed an app or mode that's causing this; you might have set up something in Kernel Adiutor (such as cpu voltage or what have you) that's causing problems; you might have restricted something in wakeblocker or an app like Xprivacy or any other Xposed module. Just think of what you did at the end of the 3-week-period. In Kernel Adiutor, untick apply on boot and reboot, so that default values could be loaded. If that doesn't help, disable wakeblocker...

I didn't change anything. Same thing when I went for a new nightly of cm12.1 I did nothing out of the ordinary. Since I did not have new problems since the above mentioned, I didn't delve any further. Today I had another, interesting issue. No one was able to call the phone and I wasn't able to call out, even though the network showed up as fine with full bars. This lasted for several hours. I went into flight mode and back out of flight mode and the issue was fixed. Several SMS arrived about calls missed. And again, I have no idea if this was caused by the hardware, an issue with the software or even the network.
And that is the frustrating thing: How can I find out who the culprit is? Are there good system crash diagnostic tools? Because so far I haven't seen anything.
