I'm using froyo FR91 and noticed within the last day that my system was slow. I downloaded an app that shows cpu and memory usage and noticed that the total cpu usage is at 99%. The Android System process is between 84% and 90% all the time.....any suggestions? Do I need a bigger swap partition or something?
Oh ya, and it will reboot my nexus one after a while when trying to use the system in this state.
interesting... i took out my SD card and it isn't acting slow... could it be the way the partition is setup?
Have you looked at System Panel or some other program to see exactly what is using CPU?
Ya like I mentioned it just says Android System. I am using Android System Info. I wonder if it is a setting with the sd card because it doesn't seem to happen without a sd card in it.

Is System Panel better than Android System Info, which is another app in the market? I now have both installed, and they seem to do the same thing.

Ah, if they do similar things then okay, I haven't used the other one, I was reading it as you were using something in the Preferences to see what was using CPU there.
Hope you figure it out, I've never seen excessive usage in any program except for a handful of times that something went rogue.
Maybe you should start removing widgets.. Then if that doesn't locate the problem, background apps..

Oh, I'm not actually the guy with the problem, just someone who's been looking for a good program to track CPU usage. I've been using System Panel for a few days and actually prefer the interface to System Info. Thanks for the tip!

Oops, missed you weren't the same, but hey, glad you like System Panel I have zero to do with the app/author but I suggest it to anyone wanting insight into what's going on, it's really great for monitoring to see long-term app behavior (paid version) or a very good whats-going-on-right-now and app killer in the free version.
seems like it was the card. I was using an adata 16gb class6 card. The card seems fine on its own. Tests on it seem ok, but once in a while the card makes the android process take a lot of cpu usage. Not sure why. I will try again on cyanogens version.
Ok its not the card because I tried a different card and it happened again. Anyone else have this issue?
Same issue,
Even swapped out my 16GB class 6 for a 32GB class 2 . Both OEM ( not ebay cards ) and the phone still reboots/ hangs ect whenusing things like animated gifs.
This has happened to me too (system_server stuck at 100%), had to reboot to fix it.
Maybe a froyo bug? Any1 try cyanogen yet?
Hi,
I have a rooted Galaxy S. I have almost 2 gigabytes for /data partition, and when I check free memory for example in Root explorer, there is 1,12 gigabytes free. However, when I tried to install Wind-up knight game from the market, I couldn't start download as it said I have no room for it. But root explorer says I do have. What is wrong? Doesn't market recognise that I've repartitioned the internal memory? Or what is it? I even moved some apps to SD, but it didn't help at all..
/datadata is where apps store information. If this space is full, you can't install apps; if there's no room at all, apps will force close if they try to write new data here. In Root Explorer, go to this folder—it will say the free space near the top. I'd check that first.
Of course, you said you already tried moving apps to the sd card, which would fix this problem. But keep in mind some games are 20+ MB, whereas lots of apps are <1 MB. If you need more space, simply uninstall apps or move them to the sd card.
Hopefully that works!
If you can't install apps from market , but can install from apk-s you should clear your cache from recovery (not dalvik cache). And clear market cache data from app manager.
Hope we solved your problem.
Something I realized: As I just translated the finnish error message to english, it doesn't tell enough about the problem. The real message is about "insufficient space". And I found out other users have had this same problem.. tried wiping the cache, dalvik cache and market application data, but it's no use..

Don't blame them. They probably didn't hang around XDA often enough to notice when this problem was first raised a year ago.
Here's the problem:
Wind up knight - size ~41 MB
I9000 Cache - Size ~39 MB
See the problem there? No matter what the hell you do, you can't download wind up knight from the market without modifying the cache size somehow. I remember someone posting a thread explaining how he managed to do a symlink for the cache, but there was quite a long time ago. When the I9000 was released, the market has an app size limit of about 25 MB. Over time this has been increased gradually and quite a number of people have expressed worries that one day the limit will eventually exceed the cache size. Well, it has happened now, and there's not a lot that we can do about it.
So you're saying that we have to live with this issue?
Edit: We can still solve this by downloading the APK's using the computer right?

Yes, since the installation process does not use the cache partition.
Fox, please stop posting random crap just because you have no idea what's going on. You are not helping at all in any way.
As for solutions, well the MIUI rom seems to have a bigger cache size.
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/27854-symlink-market-download/
A possible solution - I haven't tested this myself
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-941339.html
Specifically, this line of code:
Code:
su
mkdir /sdcard/tempcache
mount -o bind /sdcard/tempcache /cache
The last method looks promising.
Edit: Well guess what? It works! Blimey. That was easy. Plus since its temporary, everything goes back to the original state after a reboot, so you don't have to worry about breaking stuff (unlike symlinks).

Oh, of course not. We know nothing, and you're the freakin' messiah. Right.
I've helped more people with similar issues than you can probably count to, buddy. It's not my fault the OP fails at providing accurate information to diagnose a problem, as surely I can't memorize the size of every download on the market, just to help him out. Leave the condescending attitude for people that can't, won't, or don't help others, not for people helping diagnose an issue.
And yes, the fix you posted works just fine. Not that anyone other than you would know, right? Please...

Hey, let me gloat over my success for a while would you?
To be fair, I think his post was clear enough. If you google around a bit the wind up knight download problem has appeared quite a few times.
But what Fox did was just to post whatever that he thinks is the problem instead of even trying to diagnose the situation. I have asked questions before and received too many non-relevant solutions that obviously wouldn't work. It gets a little frustration if it seems like people aren't even trying to listen to you.

Hello
(sorry for bad english) (and sorry if i'm in the wrong topic)
I was lurking for some threads about increasing internal memory.
Nothing easy for me. lol so I'm making a new one.
I have a samsung galaxy ace, android 2.3 gingerbread. I have it since June or July. never had problems with it until 3 weeks ago +/-.
I never had many apps, and the apps that I had, all went to SD
Well, I downloaded Skype app and it began to fill the internal memory, I deleted it a few times, and I downloaded it again. I did that about 3 times. I thought that was the problem, some files were stored but I don't understand nothing about that.
Whenever I went to skype (the last time), it could just signal that the internal memory was full and I had to delete a few things, and then noticed that I could not receive messages.
I deleted skype forever, never downloaded it again. I now have 27MB free, I want to update the market and i can't, because it occupies just over 10mb.
Already deleted everything, and it is the same with 27mb free. thats okay, I can live with that. but I want to download more apps, and appears the samae thing.
I saw the topics about it, it says i need to format the phone, but I do not know how to do that, of course lol.
but if you guys know of any program or something of the genre, please tell me.
or please help me format my phone.
it's annoying like hell.

Follow the FULL GUIDE on my signature. Step by step and you'll be done before you know it.
Afternoon peeps,
Recently my Mini 2 has just ground to an unusable, good-for-nothing pile of crap.
- It is soooo slow to do anything.
- It rotates the screen when it's not being rotated.
- It locks in the middle of performing tasks.
- It blacks out for 30 seconds or so before becoming responsive again.
- Voice on Google Maps or Runkeeper apps keeps glitching.
I'm running CM12 [12-20150411-NIGHTLY-memul] with TWRP recovery.
Reinstalling the ROM returns the phone to a normal function, temporarily, before descending into chaos.
Clearing the cache partition sort of works....for a little while.
I/O Scheduler is ROW.
Storage isn't anywhere near full with 3.65Gb free.
Available RAM is on average about 170Mb
My thoughts are that an app is causing this.
Can anyone throw some troubleshooting ideas into the pot?
Thanks

Clearing cache and ram just makes it worst as Android works different from PC's.
It seems you're in the good path as just need to find what APP is doing that. Providing that you run CM12 without extras and its ok, than try install/uninstall one app at the time until you find the one its causing trouble

Well CM12 its a bit buggy so if you gonna run high end apps i suggest stock ROM.
Regarding RAM, android manages that pretty well for you. The more ram in use, the better things work. (if you know how RAM works) same thing with cache. So don't use stupid programs to clear RAM as they are useless.
You can google for more info.

Interesting, the reason I'm on CM with this HTC is because the Stock ROM also showed the same symptoms, so I moved to CM to try to cure. I really liked the stock UI and was reluctant to move away from it.
I do know RAM and that does make sense - more stuff in RAM = quicker access to resouces, but surely its still a good troubleshooting step to clear down if these problems arise?

Like i said, Android will clear the apps when it need to open resources for another.
Reading back your posts, you might need to do full re-installation .
If you install Google Apps bundle, start with re-flashing that. if still no good then go for the all ROM.
But you say that it also happened with stock rom so finding the app that's causing that its crucial.
Also note the apps that stay open in the background (click the 2 Squares) only nine stay open but all you need its a game to keep eating all the resources.

I've begun by uninstalling OneFootball and Facebook and performance has improved somewhat. This might be quite a long process as im going go leave a day or so between each action.
I have fully reinstalled before, but selected to restore data and apps from backup. Maybe I'll try setting up as a new device if it comes to it. Want to avoid that tho.

Did you find a solution? I'm facing about the same issue with my HTC One Mini 2 after installing CM12. It ran perfectly smooth in the beginning but now it is soooo slow and it takes forever to load almost any apps (especially Facebook and Snapchat).

I think it's either Facebook or Facebook Messenger, probably more messenger.
I first uninstalled Facebook Messenger and performance improved. Still a little glitchy, but much better.
Then I uninstalled Facebook. Not much change.
Facebook is now reinstalled, but messenger isn't and I've been happier with the phone.
I'm still getting some background apps crashing, but not as much as before uninstalling FB messenger.
Not really a 'solution' as it could be different for you, but as mentioned previously, start uninstalling an app at a time. Leave a few days inbetween so you can tell if it changed anything. If not, reinstall and try again.

Hi all,
I have been using Moto G2 since October 2014 a year ago I unlocked the bootloader and flashed CM 12 and now using CM 13. In the first few days, the performance of the phone is good but as days are passing the performance keeps on slowing down. I'm now using a 32gb sd card also I have moved most of the apps to sd card but still the problem persists.I clean the cache memory from the "Storage and USB" option in settings and have been using Ccleaner for a long time now but I see no improvements what should I do?
Should I switch to any other ROM or is there any app causing the problem?
Or should I revert back to stock ROM?
Problems I'm facing:--
1. Slow loading of settings
2. Apps becoming unresponsive(these were the apps which used to run smoothly).
3. If 5-6 apps are open the home screen takes 10-12 second to load all the shortcut icons.
And there are some other issues.
Pls help me out with this ASAP is anyone else facing the same issue?
Thanks for reading.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Hi! After years of suffering with 1 ghz mono core and 403mbs of RAM here are my tips:
What's causing all this is the low amount of RAM available on the Moto G in comparison to other devices. 1gb is really pushing the limits nowadays. So you'll have to compensate for that. The only way to do that is by making it so that you can't multi-task that well but the app you're on atm runs great.
1. Get Kernel Aduitor, go to Low RAM Killer and set it to aggressive. This should already make it a lot faster.
2. Reduce background activities by disabling unused sync operations. Go to Settings>Accounts and then check them all one by one and disable sync for whatever isn't needed.
3. Get a Custom Kernel. Always a good idea.
If this all doesn't help there is one last option. Go to Developer Options and scroll to the bottom. You will find some options for background activities. Set it so that it doesn't keep anything in memory.
If that doesn't help, then one of your apps is causing issues, start investigating.
Also ,you should remove CCleaner and also any task killing app. They cause issues and slow downs.
Best of luck!
Chris.
ehm, try this....
dismount SDcard, maybe its broken, reflash ROM, with full wipe, data, cache, system.
only flash rom and gapps, and try it without SDcard.

How to investigate which app is consuming a lot of CPU and RAM?
Which custom kernel is the best?
Which kernel would you suggest?
