Hey guys,
I'm on stock rom and I can feel the lags when I'm using the phone like when I'm using Smart Keyboard, I can feel the slowness it takes to register one key to another key.
Do you feel the same too?
Other than flashing custom roms, does freezing applications like F-secure and Car Home helps?

Install "Watchdog task manager lite" from market to check what apps are eating up the cpu cycles. Then either change the apps' setting to reduce cpu usage or delete the app. This should help reduce the lagging.
Perhaps use a Launcher such as LancherPro or ADW which are downloadable from the Market. I choose LauncherPro as personally I find this to have least lag possible.
I'm using Go Launcher currently.

I think LP and ADW are much smoother... especially paid versions.
I see. But then when I'm typing, it's really laggy in terms of when I press on the keys, the letters won't appear immediately in the textbox instead awhile later..
Does Launcher Pro have the ability to put labels on your app drawer like the stock LG home screen? I couldn't find this option. It's a shame because Launcher Pro really is much smoother.

I rooted and freezed many apps, and I think it's more smoother now.

Did you install any custom roms?
For me, i root the phone and install ClockworkMod to do a Nandbackup. Then install Titanium to do another set of apps backup and i DELETED all the LG bloatware i.e. SNS (LG FB & Twitter), Carhome, F-Secure and others LG apps. I think delete them is better than Freeze as it free up RAM.
And with Backup on titanium, you can always restore them back if you want to, and ultimately, you have nandbackup via clockworkmod where by you can simply revert back to everything original as it is before.
After i did the above, phone is much smoother and no restart nor crash. Note: i use LP instead of the laggy LG launcher.
Custom ROM is the way to go actually. After i did the above, i went further by flashing with Fear V8.0 ROM, then reapply LG Widget (love the calendar) and apply the battery icon modification. Fear V8.0 is a super fast ROM, i never encounter a single lag and everything is so zippy, infact, hyper-responsive! Even faster than stock 2.3.3 android with LP on my Nexus S.
The only draw back is the battery drain faster i.e. 8hrs overnight on wifi drain 16% - note that i got 1 exchange, 3 IMAP, Whatsapp, Evernote, Twitter & FB all turned on. But for me, i prefer to have a super phone and charge whenever i get to do so, then having to wait and experience the lag.
I am using Xperia TX from past 2-3 months now.
I have been facing this problem for sometime. Whenever I go back to home from an app at times as soon as I press the home button , the icons take some time to load around 2-3 seconds which gets annoying sometimes.. This problem increases while using wifi or internet browser...
I have tried clearing dalvik cache but still the problem persists.
Music player also closes at times while using internet browser.. And some times the music player while playing music takes small pauses...
Would love some suggestions.

Probably means you've got quite a lot of background apps running and they're causing this issue. I've personally never come across this issue on my tx, but it was a regular occurrence when I had my arc s.

Even I am facing this problem recently. I also had an Arc s before tx. But this phone is a much better performer and has been really smooth. Free RAM is around 300mb , I do clear RAM and running apps are also not that much. Still cant figure out what could have gone wrong. I have rooted my phone and slight modifications have been made ( changed the on screen button theme ) but this issue has cropped up recently.
Depends on the app your running(those ram hungry), try opening a couple of tab pages in chrome and your launcher will surely reload if you go back to home screen. I'm a heavy user of chrome and this has been a normal thing already for me.

Same thing is happning with me also when i open chrome with more than 2-3 tabs and after pressing home button launcher redraws this is really annoying. I have tried to ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 in build.prop still no luck. Any workaround for it????

Ok let me try it out...
hey mates, many times i see walkman stops playing, i think it is just getting killed for low memory? in that case is there any tweak i can apply to tell android i don't want walkman getting killed? i guess there's some tweak involving editing of build.prop?? :crying:
The build prop edit doesn't work. Get system tuner and set custom ram kill values or else get ram manager and select high multitasking.

can't get it, bro? how to do it using sys tuner can u plz elaborate the process?
I can't think it will be low memory - the SP has plenty of RAM to run JB and some serious multi-tasking.
I imagine it's an incompatible app or some setting that has been changed.
From past experience I know that some custom kernels with a deep sleep profile can be very agressive (killing background processes) when the screen is off.

no bro, it kills walkman when screen is on, usually when i use chrome to do a lot of surfing. anyways i have installed supercharger script!! :victory: let's see if it solves the problem.
I have the issue of the Sound effects of the Walkman geting killed off if I do some serious facebooking or G+'ing on the phone. The Walkman app itself still works, however the sound effects app gets killed and there's no way to get it back except a reboot.
Killing and restarting Walkman doesn't help.

Well I've only had the SP for 6 days, so haven't really put it through it's paces. I think I read somewhere that the default out of memory app killer is set at 200mb which is probably too conservative. Even so for it to kill an in use process rather than a cached one does suggest a bug of some kind.
I came from a phone with 512MB ram - so far the SP is exceeding my expectations (especially when it comes to multi tasking). Of course facebook is a bloated app that doesn't seem especially well optimised for android, I try to avoid it - it's possible that apps that cache a lot of media might cause trouble?
i have installed supercharger script and it seems to resolve this error.
I know this is a bit of an old thread but I'm having a similar, and at times worse problem. I also think the default task killer has some bug or something because it kills the walkman app every now and then while I'm listening to music. I installed the Xposed framework and the App Settings module to set some apps to be 'Residents' and that has worked very well with some apps. The really big problem is that, there are times where the phone literally closes an app that I'm currently using while it's still visible, I've had Chrome close on me very often and sometimes the keyboard doesn't appear when I want to write something, which makes me believe that somehow the keyboard app/service was killed. I'm hoping that if CM or some other custom ROM gets released, it'll have better memory management, but for the time being, is there any way I can quarantine a Sony service or app to stop this from happening so often?
I am using the latest .245 firmware, rooted and with unlocked bootloader, and I've never installed any third-party task manager/killer. I'm pretty sure it's not that I'm running out of RAM because I usually have around 200MB free, sometimes a lot more.

I've had a similar issue with the Xperia T. Listening to music through Bluetooth, and browsing using the stock android browser (not chrome), the music used to stop and it would loose the stopping point and reopening walkman shows the music as if after its been refreshed. Posted on Sony forums, to which I was asked to repair the phone and didnt seem to slove it.
Only change that happened was I stopped using the two of them simultaneously for a longer period of time
Btw, this was on the original ICS fw, for Xperia T. Can't comment on it on JB as I havent put it through the same scenario.
But RAM used to be around 667MB when on ICS and ~800MB for JB on Xperia T

Well as someone else suggested I installed the supercharger script. So far it seems a LOT better, but I'll have to test it for a few days before I can be sure.
It's weird that Walkman has such a low task priority
You wouldn't care where I sent this message from.

Its not about which player you are using.
Its the OOM groupings that are a little f-ed up in SP. This happens with Pandora and Spotify for that matter too..
Well nevermind what I said, if anything something seems a little worse now, my launcher keeps randomly crashing and I'm getting a constant weird notification about a failed bugreport. Supercharger scripts says that everything is working 100% but I think somehow the phone is still managing to kill its services. It's driving me a little crazy and I'm not sure what to try, I'd reflash the stock ROM and start from scratch but it didn't work well before, that's why I started installing other apps...

Ok I might give it a try but there's one specific thing that's driving me insane. I've already installed Xposed framework, V6 Supercharger and Crossbreeder. They all seem to be working correctly and some things work fine, but my keyboard keeps disappearing very very often. I don't know why, I click on a textbox to write something and as I start typing they keyboard just goes away and doesn't come back for a while, I don't even know why or if it has anything to do with RAM (which I doubt). I'm using the Kii Keyboard from the Play Store and I've bulletproofed it with the Supercharger scripts, and it does appear with an OOM priority of -17. I've tried reinstalling and also using the default Xperia keyboard, but it keeps happening.
Any input is appreciated, or if someone knows a way to maybe make a log or something to identify the culprit.
It gets killed. Happens seldom with my SwiftKey.

Me too. Bulletproof with supercharger, ram manager Pro and freeze all not important and ram eating apps like Google play and other big apps with titanium backup. Remove not used bloatware. Nothing help. Bulletproof working before by all other Android Handys I have or had. Sorry man. Think we must wait for cm10 or maybe by jb 4.3 bulletproof work. I can cry beautiful big handy and no music together with chat and or other apps. By me helps sometimes before I open an app I bring Walkman in the foreground. Bad build Sony

If you visit the themes and apps section. You will find a modded services.jar which will stop your home launcher from being killed. Currently working on the team management. So expect a fix by next week. Cheers!

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.
