I recently bought note (white) and it runs on stock rom. I have a gs2 as well, and i feel note is laggy sometimes and not as superfast as gs2. i dont prefer custom roms. Is there any tips to make the phone faster? I have many apps running in sd instead of phone. would that make a diff?

I think we just need to give samsung time to create better stock roms for us. Having been on the full journey for sgs1 im sure the note will be blazing fast in the future roms

For the time being use an alternative launcher which should give you a boost, example LauncherPro...
But still felt smoother with stock launcher.
thanks, it wox
Update to Kl7 firmware. It seems to have resolved most of the lagginess that made the Note feel slow
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
right. KL7 fixed it all.
I prefer GoLauncher, it's much smoother than LauncherPro. Homescreen switching is not as smooth as Touchwhiz tho.

Lol, funny how these launcher's work. In my case it's the opposite, LauncherPro is miles faster & smoother than both ADW Launcher & GoLauncher...
Ha, ADW has been very smooth on mine! I have not tried the other launchers on my note yet though. I updated to KL7 ota within an hour of acquiring the device, and have not experienced any lag whatsoever.
Guys, I am been a die hard fan of Apple iPhone and just last week I have shifted to Android, so I am not sure what you guys are talking about when it comes to launcher and KL5 or KL 7. Can someone guide me? My G-Note is not smooth as it should have been. I will appreciate an honest guidance
If you have task killer remove it. This device has enough ram

How to Make Galaxy note faster?
Throw it.
Hello!
I want to buy a used Galaxy Tab P7300and I wanted to know if there are some specific problems for this device: some touchscreen issues, some display rendition issues, anything. Something similar like "black clipping" specific for galaxy note and galaxy nexus...anything
I'm waiting for your answers..
I do think it is worth highlighting the lag/smoothness which sometimes occurs when swiping between screens in TouchWiz. Other launchers help and hoping this will be addressed with ics update. This was my only concern with it out of the box. Search lag or similar in these forums and will see a few hits.
Btw, I still love mine and reckon this is the best form factor (few products in its league).
With the ics update the 7310 it is quite perfect. Super smooth and fast. Zero lang switching between homes.
I believe that the ics for the 7300 will work just like that.
The only thing that you should consider would be the nexus 7 vs the 7300.
Cheers.

Thank you for your answers. I appreciate.
I don't take the Nexus 7 in consideration because of the size (I have already a Galaxy Tab P3100), because it doesn't have a camera, a LED flash and the 3g facility.
Thanx again!

The con of the nexus 7 is indeed the size... although I just find it small when it comes to video... to the rest is quite great.
The pro is the update... it already runs JB... We are just getting ICS... a OS that came out almost a year a go...
Your choice
I just found out samsung all share and I'm overwhelmed! #win

1)For flashing a new kernel you need to be rooted.
2)battery drain depends on apps you use and also your screen brightness,bluetooth,gps,data etc
3)try to find out if you are having wakelocks or some fault woth battery
4)try reading about some battery saving tips.
5)get an extended aftermarket battery of need be.
6)have a nice day

Download betterbatterystats from this forum and see if you have a wakelock issue. If you don't then you've got a dud battery, it should perform much better than that.

How dare you? Xda is the king! You've made 5 posts, mate, a forum needs to be used to get the most out of it.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
dude you shouldn't be writing here if you think that. go to your favorite forums. :thumbdown:
cuteabuser - dont listen to Bozo The Clown calvincharles. Everything you need to know is on this forum. Use the search button in the Note Forum and search for battery. You should get a bunch of stuff that comes up. Turn off stuff you dont use especially sync stuff. If you are techy enough once you get into it then you can mess with stuff like Tasker. I use Tasker to turn on GPS when I open the apps that use GPS. I set times for my bluetooth to turn on before work and after work etc when I am driving. This is all so I dont have these things running all the time. I learned all this stuff from here.
When I first got my Note it immediately asked for update so I did. It was getting horrible battery life after that and I didnt even use it before the update. I ended up rooting and custom romming this bad boy and turned all kinds of crap I dont use off. Now I get all day unless I have my screen on. Then its only maybe 3 hours of constant on.
Good luck and read read read...its what I did.
Read the stickies on this forum. They should help.

First and foremost, before you try anything, like wipes or formats, I would advise you to download and flashthis kernel based on the current firmware you have. It is a stock safe ICS kernel, because stock Samsung ICS kernels are very much unsafe to wipe or format from. It will give you root however, so if you don't want root, then you can just use the supersu app that gets installed to make a permanent unroot. But atleast you'll be on a safe kernel, and you won't have to worry about any bricks. Then download betterbatterystats as mentioned above and use this thread to determine any wakelocks or battery munchers. If the need be comes that you need to send it to Samsung for any reason, there is another kernel thread in the original development section that gives you all stock ICS kernels you can flash.
And go through the forum, and read all the stickies. They answer all questions.
:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: P.S -> THIS THREAD IS CREATED TO ENHANCE USER EXPERIENCE NOT TO CREATE A BATTLE BETWEEN S5 AND M8
Guys, even after new touchwiz. S5 animations seems slow.. yet the device is super fast.. so my tips would just help you! Thanks to look into it
1. Go to settings>developer options(if not present go to about phone and tap the build no. 5 times)> transition animation scale and shift the value to (0.5 or 0)
Do it for windows animation scale
And animator duration scale too!
2. Disable s-voice from Galaxy s5 it would make u go to homescreen super fast..
To do that double click your home button.. register s-voice go to menu(by pressing multitasking button for 3 seconds and then untick disable s-voice open via home key..
3. You can also use a custom launcher if you don't want touchwiz!
4. If rooted then try cross breeder!
P.s. > I will update it with more things.
5. If you're rooted and have tons of apps, then install greenify app from playstore and hibernate your apps.. this way you can improve battery life and functionality
6. Do a factory reset, which may solve your problem.
Hit Thanks if I helped!

Its confusing that so many people complain about touchwiz...just choose a different launcher like Nova and dont look back.

The truth is that people don't like TW animations, but they don't understand the difference between lag and slow animation. So they complain but the excuse is ridiculous.
Enviado do meu Galaxy S4
How about this novel idea....if you don't like Touchwiz and/or you think this phone lags, then simply don't buy it or return it and leave us happy owners alone.
And for the love of God, please stop comparing this phone to the M8. They are different, period.
OP, I'm not saying you are doing these things, but it's always what these threads end up turning into.

Ok... so which phone should we compare it to then? The S4? M8 is clearly the most direct and similar competitor for the S5 at the moment and they shouldn't be compared to each other? Now that sounds pretty stupid to me...
For God's sake this is not a comparison thread... this is meant to make your s5 a bit more responsive..
So guys please enjoy your devices... dont fight...

My tip: use Startup Manager free from Google Play Store to check what apps starting with boot and disable them. You can disable Samsung stuff with this app. More free RAM. No root needed.

I didn't notice any performance issues relating to the launcher for exactly that reason - Nova is one of the first things I install!
I am actually using ADW at the moment though because I saw there was an update since I'd last installed it on another device ages ago and fancied road testing any changes - I'm loving the 'Wall' animation on the app drawer, and people who've had a go on my phone have commented on how slick it looks

Installing another weather app (or HD widgets or similar) and installing a calendar widget from the play store will fix 2 of those 3.
For the other one, I just put a shortcut to the app on my home screen and go into S health that way.
Each to their own though.
S - voice can be disabled completely using the uninstall/disable apps option.

I wouldn't recommend crossbreeder or any of such scripts on our phone.
It won't make any difference and most likely cause higher battery consumption.

There is no best Rom. A lot of the ROMs here are great. The real question is which Rom is best for you. It's all about what you want, looks? Customizable? Minimal? Stability?. Etc. You get what I mean.
Obviously, the N7 and S8 ports are the newest craze. And there are too many great ROMs for me to list, also there are plenty more post about this same question.
But the main point I wanted to make for you is: if fingerprints is a big point for you then your gonna want to stay with a Note 4 based Rom! Because all the ports usually don't work or require some work around.
Good luck in your search!

If you want working fingerprint reader and minimum bugs then I agree with the previous poster, stick with a note 4 based rom. A really good one is twiztd note 4 version of his rom. Very smooth and stable and everything works !
