Im not getting FCs even on custom ICS ROMs. So no, that's totally not normal.

sometimes,RAM can run very low, slowing down or almost freezing device. I go to task manager then select...ram...then clear memory

It is normal for ANY phone to crash!

I completely and totally agree.
phones are not designed for the sole enjoyment of pocket protector enthusiasts and tinkerers, i.e. us... They are designed so that Joe Schmoe. or your Aunt Mable can use the device with the stock ROM without ever coming to a forum.
When a phone crashes repeatedly it means there is either something major wrong with it, or the user.

Not sure really, basically the screen sometimes totally freezes on a page of something and I have to manually reboot it.

[Q] Why chrome is laggy on note?

Hey guys I just got my note, and I always wanted to use chrome, but now that Im ussing it I found it so laggy, its not as smooth as the default browser or Ics browser plus for example. I mean its damn fast but the scroll is laggy, but Ill stick to it, its managament tabs is amazing
Any ideas?

Maybe the resulution..

Yes it does seem a little less responsive in scrolling (compared to stock ICS browser & Opera at least) but that could be why it's still in beta.

I noticed that it also has problems with text size. some places have increased font size for no reason!!
its also quite glitchy with flash video's.

Chrome for android doesn't support flash so I don't think you will be able to watch any flash videos with it.

I know and I dont care really I use both chrome and stock. If i want a full desktop experience Ill go for the stock, whereas if I need fastness chrome is for me.
Hope the laggy scroll on chrome will be solved in some point

Still apparent on my note and i just updated today. The lag is the only thing that's keeping me away from it

For me its working great.... only find the lag now and then while inputting some text fields but loving it any way

How is swipepad working on note with ics

Swipepad was working flawlessly on s2, with gb then it was occasionally killed in background on ics with cm9, now on my note with ics,criskelo rom, it's almost useless, it's benign frequently killed in background, the hotspot are also laggy, is there a way to bullet proof this app from being killed,
Any help?

I am using it on Stock ICS. Seems to work fine. A little slow in starting actions at times though.

Does it gets killed in between,i mean you have to open the app to relaunch it?

Hasn't ever done that as yet.

On S2 was perfect, on Note I cant use hotspots on the sides, only on the squares, the other hotspots are not big in size for this res and fails continually.
The dev doesn't even answer the mails and even using the notification icon to avoid the kill of the program, it is laggy and slow.

Kersh
As far as the size of hot spot is considered the new update has provided the option to increase the size of hot spot
But
I'm having the problem of it being killed in the background though i use the notification icon to keep it alive,

SwipePad does have the option to set the size of the hotspots. And it works perfectly well on ICS. I am using it on stock LPA.

Well I'm happy it's working fine in ics, coz I'm so used to it, May be a reflash shall work it out, I'm on criskelo rom
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I'll suffering too. Only the corners work. The edges are simply not responsive. And this has nothing to do with the app as I've felt the edges to be unresponsive in other apps as well.
The dev is as unresponsive

what i have noticed is that the back key kills the app,i think its the way ics works, it keeps at most 4 in the background, if some one would help me in preventing swipepad from killed in the background would be nice

Have you found a solution for this? Swipepad gets killed constantly on cm10...

New screen problem? Horizontal random black lines.

Just noted that I have maybe a defective screen (or GPU?).
Sometimes when using apps like XDA, browsing or apps with a lot of white background I noticed black lines (1pixel width).
When you holding in portrait mode their appear on the bottom side of he screen, and are horizontal. Always very fast, they appear and then go very fast. Sometimes its only one horizontal line,sometimes two.
When you hold in landscape mode they appear on the whole screen (vertical lines). It happened to me know two times while typing this post.
I'm full stock, not rooted. I have the power plug on and charging, maybe some power oscillation? Will see if happens without charger.

I thought I was going crazy when I noticed this! I legitimately see black lines down the screen for about a second just slightly out of my peripheral, and then they're gone.

Happens on xda and chrome, it's a known problem. Some people say other kernels help get rid of it. I think it's just a software bug.

Same issue here.

I also noticed these kind of lines. It happened while watching some videos on YouTube. Also on XDA, portrait mode, on the upper side of the screen. Anyone has a software solution for this? I am just afraid not to get some permanent lines like this.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

So... seems like that the problem appears for me only when I'm charging.
Anyone can confirm that the lines appears without charger plugged in?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

Yes, the lines appear without charging.

Happens to my Nexus 7 also. They appear very briefly, like for half a second. Usually in the bottom half of the screen (I can't even tell if it appears at the same spot - it appears so briefly, but I do think I have seen it once or twice in the upper half). I have seen it on xda app, Tapatalk app, and Chrome blank page. I think I may have seen it on the home screen also.
On my Tapatalk app I turned the background to dark gray and font to white, but I have still seen it 1-2 times, so it doesn't just happen with white backgrounds.
Don't know if its a software issue and can be fixed with updates or should I get it exchanged? It will be hard to make the store understand what the problem is since it is quite rare, happens to me only a couple of times a day or so (although I have been playing Angry Birds extensively recently to see if it app specific or not, and I have yet to see on Angry Birds - I actually have not seen it anywhere for the last couple of days since I started playing AB).

I only get them in the Tapatalk app. And it doesn't happen often enough to be annoying so I don't really care.

Here here!!
Had them on Tapatalk, dolphin browser and on Plume to name a few. Like others said though, they ain't frequent tto become a PITA but are still noticeable.

I swear these threads are going to appear every week talking about the same problems that have already been discussed many times over.
As said many times before, this is a common issue with tegra 3. The one x line flickering was fixed with an update.
Or you can download a custom kernel with an increased panel clock rate and be happy.
So anybody else have screen raise on the left or is it just me???? just messing.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Saw it on Angry Birds too. So its just not on xda or Tapatalk apps.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

A custom kernel does fix it. I had this problem until I flashed the motley kernel and it went away. Then I when I went to the paranoid android ROM I didn't know at the time but it changed my kernel back to stock... I didn't realize it had changed until I noticed the lines again. So far I have used the Trinity kernel and motely's and both have solved the screen tearing problem. If you don't want to flash a custom kernel I'm sure google will fix it in a future update. Thankfully its not a hardware problem.

Really happy that the problem can be fixed with a software update.

Screen tearing
Different from the backlight flicker, known issue, please vote :good:

I have this as well well as screen moving issue I'm going to buy a 16 gb version and send this back for refund. Hope they will do that I really don't need two Nexus 7 tablets

Yep, I've seen it happen with the xda app, and it looks like it flickers a line for a second and goes away.

i have this as well, a dark horizontal line appears in a flash of second at random time and place, i thot it is the flicker issue ppl talked about?
but i dont have the whole screen flicker tho i have tried google map zooming or panning with gps on and weak wifi signal and auto brightness off and 15%

S5 heats up?

Is anyone experiencing a warm back with s5 especially after a reboot? Is goes up to 99 degrees F and drains the battery but nothing else is running. Anyone know the cause? Thx in advance.

I haven't noticed any unusually high temps, it runs about as hot as my Note 2 would under similar situations.

Ok, do you know what the temperature would be under normal use? Wondering if I need to exchange mine which I don't want to do.

I've been emailing and browsing XDA for the last 20 minutes and its been sitting right around 85*F every time I've checked on it.

Have you checked what apps are running? I've noticed some warming when I have used the camera or internet extensively, but nothing like my GS3 used to.

No I haven't experienced that stuff. It runs very smoothly.
I'd recommend resetting the android os from settings 》 backup&reset.
The next level is to completely reinstall the operating system using Samaung Kies (download straight from Samaung website). Install usb drivers from samsung site.
Once kies recognized your phone, run a full backup if you have anything you'd wish to back up, then reinstall/intitialize phone software.

EVERYDAY PHONE HEATS UP...I FONT REMEMBER A PHONE EVER THAT HASNT.... IF IT IS NO BURNING U THEN FORGET IT.
Sent from my SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Here is a graph showing the phones temp over the last 5 hours.

On the S4 upon initial boot up, the phone performs a media scan on of the internal storage and SD card. While this was happening, the phone would become noticeably warmer, I believe the same thing is happening to your S5.
Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk

Generally it shouldnt heat up. You should try a factory reset but heating is normally caused by a bad settled kernel in the firmware. Seeing as there are no custom kernels to replace it and stock firmwares to flash in Odin you could just factory reset.
