Did you remember to add them to the ignore list on your task killer?

Yeah they are added...I keep trying to go to netflix.com and ir loss the page but immediately goes back to my desktop...frustrating it never did this before

I'd highly recommend a factory reset and no task killers after that. They can cause screwy stuff like this to happen. Are you rooted and if so, what ROM/customizations are you using. There might be something there that is causing the issue. Most people who did a stock 2.2 upgrade had a similar issue. Something wasn't playing well after the update. Factory reset fixed it right up.

Gallery Lag in JI6

Has anyone noticed some serious lag in the stock gallery after updating to JI6? Anyone know if there is a fix for this?
Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Ive noticed it but do not know a fix for it. For some reason the CPU spikes a ton when opening the gallery. Sometimes it just freezes completely on my phone. maybe 1/6 times it does that.
I haven't seen any lag. I updated with Odin.
I also used OCLF app to root, lag fix and other tweaks. Installed clockworkmod recovery
My Vibrant is so damn fast now it's not even funny
i have the same lag in JI5
Mostly it hanged when u first open it..quite annoying
Yes. same here. Rooted and one click lag fix applied. it seems to be the only thing that lags right now.
YES i thought it was my vibrant but i guess not.
it freezes when you try to open it and its annoying!
I believe this really needs to be fixed. Its totally uneeded that a simple thing like the gallery causes me to reboot my vibrant when i jusy want to look at a damn PICTURE!!!!

*Had updated to JI6 via kies mini*
After a fresh reboot, the gallery opens w/no prob. 2nd & 3rd time-it'll lag for a while and the 4th + time, it's time for another reboot. Anyone have any suggestions for an alt gallery app?
Had absolutely no prob with the gallery prior to the update.

I have the same lag here too for some reason....almost seems like phone is freezing up loading the thumbnail images.....never happened before JI6 update, I do have OCLF V2 running and everything else is super fast....
Note: I was not running OCLF after going to JI6, i noticed the gallery lag then ran the lag fix but no change...
Wow this is my first time experiencing this after installing ji6. Never had this problem before on stock jfd and on eugenes roms.
Sent from Samsung Vibrant
I cringe now when I want to show someone something from my gallery.. Is this happening on every device? I had originally thought it may be something from me being rooted and with a lag fix.
Mine lags on the gallery and when I open the apps folder(section). If I start typing long messages it will stop and be a word or two behind. GPS is useless again and will even be a block or two behind where I am when I'm moving. The GPS says that I have a lock on 5-7 sats and the accuracy is only down to 3-500 feet this is why its a block behind.
today I turned on the map app while I was walking and it would have my speed at one mile per hour and then stop completley and a minute later it would show me at ten miles per hour to catch up. Its like it refreshes every 30 seconds to a minute so the accuracy suck.
This phone is really beginning to become a pain. and it definetly is not worth what I paid for it.
I've been facing the same issue. Just installed Bionix 1.9 stock and it's much better since..
a friend of mines who also updated to ji6 stated that it's becasue of the ji6's new task manager. he said that the lag only happens when he just killed all the apps. he said when ever he disables or chooses not to use the task manager, the lag goes away. so far this has worked for me.
I've had issues with the Gallery in JI6 on occasion so far. It usually freezes for a few minutes or less, only one time did I have to completely pull the battery.
Now as far as what ryan562 said his friend stated it's with the new task manager, I am not dismissing the possibility with that at all. But with my issues, I am not even using the Task Manager that came with JI6 nor does it run in the background/etc.
I'm not going to lose sleep over the small issue here, at least with me. I am waiting patiently for 2.2 Froyo and I'm sure things will be fine with it there when it's finished.
I'm not only getting lag in gallery, but bad lag sometimes in swype

4g issue

I just recently started using launcher pro instead of the sense launcher and since then my 4g comes in automatically when I restart my phone. Does anyone else have this issue? If so is there a way to stop that from happening? I don use 4g because coverage sucks in my area and I have WiFi to hook to almost everywhere I go.

Did you make sure the 4G box is unchecked in your settings (wireless & networks?) That should do the trick.
If it's happening while using a non-stock Launcher, download a 4G toggle widget and remember to toggle off upon reboot.
Yeah the box is unchecked. And I haven't had this issue until I started using launcher pro. Don't know if that's what's causing the issue. Just noticed it started at that point. No matter how I reboot the phone it always comes on at boot now. And I am sure that it is turned off on shut down.

I have the same issue! While it's not a big deal, it is annoying. I don't have a custom launcher and I'm still on the stock ROM. I noticed it once I downloaded Power Control Plus and put a widget on that controlled the 4G. Do you have Power Control Plus installed as well?
No. On stock Rom. Oc'd to 1.8ghz. Running launcher pro for a launcher and themed with dreamlyfe and widgetsoid.
Edit: have a switched setup through widgetsoid. Gonna remove that and see if it helps. Has a 4g switch on it so maybe that's whats doing it.
Sent from my Evo Shift.
Just removed the switcher widget and rebooted. No change. Still turns on my 4g antenna on reboot. Really annoying.

same thing happens to me and im on the stock rom just rooted.
There's gotta be a solution to this. We need some code junkies, devs. What's up?
Sent from my Evo Shift.
i have used launcher pro for over 5 months now and have never had the issue with my evo or the epic. did you go through all the settings from preferences when you hit the menu key?
Went through the menu with no settings for connections. I've used launcher pro before and have never had issues like this. I don't think the launcher is the issue.

I am on the stock Rom and this started happening to me when I installed beautiful widgets which comes with a 4G toggle. Even if I don't use the toggle or put it on any of my home screens beautiful widgets still causes my 4G to turn on after a reboot.
Me too. And I just flashed a fresh Rom and didn't have the same issue. I will try removing beautiful widgets and see what happens.
Sent from my Evo Shift.
Whenever you turn off 4g, do it by going into menu-settings-wireless settings. If you turn it off using beautiful widgets that's when you will encounter this problem. This happens in the evo.

Ok now I'm back on my stock Rom and am not having a problem. Just restored from nandroid. Don't know what the difference is but maybe try backing up, wiping and then restore...?

I turned it off at the widget and in the settings menu. They had the same effect. But as I said above not having that issue at the moment. Will do a couple of reboots and see what happens.
Sent from my Evo Shift.
Did multiple reboots since last night and I haven't had any issues with 4g coming on at boot when it was off on shutdown. Don't know if what I did fixed the issue. Or how it did it. For everyone having the same issue try making a nandroid backup, wiping everything, then restore. I actually flashed a Rom, decided I didn't like it and restored back. Try that and post results.

Do you have beautiful widgets installed now? If that's the only app causing it then we know the issue.
I do have beautiful widgets installed. Has been the whole time. If that was the cause, wouldn't that carry over when restored? The only thing I changed before the last backup was removing the switcher widget. Made a backup after that right before flashing the new Rom. Didn't like it. Restored back. Problem gone. Maybe a write error or something regarding the widget?

games going to the pause screen for unknown reason

first off, I'm running stock EC05, rooted
Problem:
yesterday my Epic started jumping to the pause screen while I was playing Collapse! which I had gotten off of the Amazon App market, at first I thought it might be the hardware fault when the back button presses automatically, but it wasn't as it continued to do it without the haptic feedback or blinking, so I ruled that out and tried reinstalling
unfortunately it continued, so I though it might be a bad download that needs an update on the market, so I uninstalled and decided to play Robot Unicorn Attack which I got off the Android Marketplace, however it does the same thing, right in the middle of gameplay, it will jump to the pause screen
so now I thought it might be some other app that I updated that is causing some kind of interference with the system, so I uninstalled all apps that had been updated or installed over the past 2 or 3 days, the problems remains
I tried Fruit Ninja from that Amazon App Store as well, same problem, I'm really not sure what is wrong as there had been no problems with any of the games before yesterday, I also did a scan for malware just for kicks but nothing showed up
when I tired searching for people with similar problems, the closest I found was someone who was having what seemed like an identical problem on a Galaxy S Tab, any help that doesn't require a complete rom flash would be awesome
thanks!

The only thing I can suggest is going into Clockwork and clearing data and Dalvik cache. Sounds like some data corruption somewhere if you are running stock with no overclocking or undervolting which usually causes this kind of behavior.
Are you running an overclocked kernel? I have a similar problem with Words With Friends whenever I'm running an overclocked kernel. If I disable overclocking and reboot, the problem goes away.

His OP said he was running stock. Switch to Word feud, you can overclock all you want and still run Adfree.

I will give it a shot and let you know how it goes
question though, can I restore anything from my Titanium Backup? or would that just bring the problem back once it was restored?

Was it OK when you did the backup? If so you can certainly try. Just to clarify you are on full stock, just rooted?

I'm at sprint right now returning a completely stock refurb they gave me. Apps are randomly opening and backing out of themselves

If you are having problems, boot into CWM and reflash the rom right over what you are running. It will backup the apps and everything for you and you will be back up and running in under a half hour.
You might want to try this before doing that though:
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All
Scroll down to Youtube and select it. Hit "Clear Data" and then exit out and try Youtube again.
Are you running stock or a custom ROM? It has been so long since I have run stock that I wouldn't be able to help you out with that. I am currently running SyndicateROM Frozen. It's sold as a rock, fast, and I can go days without rebooting.
Getting the same EXACT issue as the OP. Running stock and rooted EC05. I think it started recently with the latest YouTube update. It didn't do that when I first got EC05.
Yes, me too. Stock EC05. I also noticed that the video camera and stock video player stop working when the youtube app fails.

Have you considered trying a custom ROM? I tried the scenario you described and didn't have a problem. I am running SyndicateROM Frozen, but there are others to choose from.
Just a thought.
Thanks, I'm sure that would help but I don't want to root.
I read the reviews in the Market for our current version of YouTube and apparently a lot of other users on different phones are getting the same problem. Many 1 star reviews lately because of it. As I stated earlier, this didn't start occurring until recently, which I attribute to the latest upgrade of the app.
Mine is the inability for the phone to roam on the PCS band. Really Samsung? Fix the bug!
Yes, this happened a lot to me when I was running EC05. So annoying.
Sounds like it's an EC05 bug. I refuse to power cycle 3 times a day for luxurious mutimedia. My Flash works, that's all I need. But wait, now the same error occurs when checking Voicemail, taking video, using the stock player... what's next? But I will not power cycle.

I think the Youtube glitch was due to a problem Google was having. If you've noticed, Gmail also had an insane lag and fail to send rate during that time too. Might actually just be Google servers.
I had the same issue but it stopped after so long and I'm back to normal.
I tried a fix I read in another thread and it seems to work. Uninstall the official twitter app and use another like tweetcaster. I have power cycled and haven't had that youtube problem anymore. Don't know why that worked.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Unmount your SD card and Mount it back again and that will fix the youtube app. I don't know why it fixes this problem for me. Let me know if it worked for you.
The only rom this happens to me on is ec05 plus.

Message App Lag

Not sure if i have had this before but there is a big lag on the message default app, when u click it back to homescreen. Does anyone else have this problem ?????
Seems a firmware issue. Try to reboot the device. If remains, a Factory Reset. Make sure you don't have some other messaging apps.
I used to have this and had to clear memory on the task manager to get it back to full speed again.
I have recently upgraded to the KG5 (polish?) 2.3.4 firmware and this no longer happens.
same happens with me. did factory reset nothing changed
Running KKH3
Tried lots of things, changing firmware, wiping. etc can't stop the lag. any other ideas driving me nuts
In KI4 it dpesnt happen at least.
I have the same issue, but I refuse to update the firmware to anything that messes with the tint (I one of the few who likes it). So for now I guess I'll be sticking with the slightly laggy messaging app.
