Which LagFix to use...

...there are several lag fixes out there now. Which one would be the best/safest to use???
edit: I have a stock rooted vibrant.

RyanZA without a doubt, one click. Get USB drivers. easy to do and easy to undo.

why do you keep posting this all over the General forums? especially when it is all in caps lock.... having a PC and a phone at the same time isn't difficult at all.

No offense, my friend, but spamming the forums everywhere with the same info in all caps is just a bit obnoxious. I mean, do what you want, but expect people to be annoyed.

read my post on RyanZA fix in batch file. tried V1 and V2.3, both have bugs.
This fix was stable for me, but there is a catch too. the limit for app data storage is 130mb, will you ever go over, i dont know. i didnt yet.

I tried RyanZA's 2-3 batch file fix and I'm not having any problems...to which bugs are you referring?

The bug I’m aware of happens with apps that store data (such as texture) on the sd card outside of the new partition. Some games such as Asphalt 5, Homerun Battle 3d, heavy Gunner, maps... This is a problem with all the lags fixes. If you don't use those apps or apps like that it probably won't affect you.
For instance the load times for Homerun Battle were three times longer on start up, if it started up. I had several times where my phone just shut off. If it eventfully did start it would run fine. Chainfire talks about the bug in his thread found here.

Played around with maps, gps on/off, zillow app., switching back and forth and phone froze on Alpha 1 as well as 2.3. Also this is a know issue and I got it too, on 2.3 I was not able to change fonts. And I hate default font

When i use RyanZA lagfix it works but when i reboot the phone everything gets screwed up anyone have this problem itll take ages to boot up and when it does alot of force closes and widgets outta place etc

Use chainfire. I believe it may be the safest, easily the most automatic one.

Touch sensitivity and lag

Anyone having any issues with with their screens sensitivity such as the keyboards typing being very laggy and scrolling being very laggy as well. Tried doing a factory reset and no difference so I'm guessing defective product. Probably going to exchange tomorrow. Anyone else?

I only experienced that so far when typing a response on XDA. Some other forums I tried with the browser work great. Gmail works great. Scrolling is also slower on XDA but fine on other sites. There are other threads on this already.

A calibration.ini text file on root of memory worked for gtabs. Put it in the root directory nothing in it. Just a txt file called calibration.ini reboot the tablet but dont touch the screen during reboot. Try that

same here only lag when typing in forums

Quick update. I had my xoom plugged into the dock which was plugged into my 200w inverter which is pretty beefy and after unplugging the lag ceased. So obviously they dont play well together. And a little fyi for anyone else who might be experiencing similar problems.

I had sensitivity issues while I had their screen protector on. And then again for like 10 minutes after my fiancee spit on it.

Why don't you guys use the offical xda app? I can't get anything to lag on my xoom. I know that it'll lag if you are in the browser. But just download the app and use it as it seems easier to me.

The official XDA app fails to load half of the time and is slow the rest of the time on my XOOM. It used to be the same on my Nexus One, but after putting Gingerbread on last night it flies faster than I could imagine.

I don't use the XDA app because, if I recall correctly, it requires my device's ID. I don't download any application which requests permissions that it doesn't actually need to function.

It also lags horribly when typing comments on Slashdot (worse than on XDA). But here, scrolling lags as well whereas on Slashdot it's only typing.

Yeah, it seems consistent with certain sites. I am sure it is fixable with an update.

[App] xda premium

I am surprised no one has brought it up yet here. Running great on my evo! Loads everything properly, which the free app waant for me. Loads it a little faster too so far! Hopefully they release more themes. Only negative is it doesn't seem to hide the status bar.

If you use your phone's search button within the App, you can successfully search? I get immediate FC and many have the same problem.
I'm more curious about the other FCs - that others have seen as well - when doing something random like changing a page or viewing an attached image. Seems like it happens most when the app has been open for a while. Can almost expect it at times. Might have to check this premium version out, didn't even know it WAS out! Thanks.

No problem.
I have never had any force closes doing anything? lucky i guess haha.
I can't help you with the search though, the rom i use has it disabled apparently.. didn't know that!

I fully agree with you with my HTC Vision running stock froyo.
Search is a 100% FC.
To avoid the other type I have always to get out the topic and exiting XDA App, before minimizing/doing something else.
Is this version solving?

I'll probably buy it just to support xda. However every single time I back out of a topic after I have been out if the app for a few mins or the next time I open it, I always get a force close. Every single time I can replicate it. I have to restart the app so it wont force close
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I cant tell you... i never got these fcs... i must have a magic phone. I am flashing another rom haha. So i will tell you if search causes fc soon.
Edit: the search button does nothing at all now... lol

It's a good looking app... also Ad-free! Only available for a limited time.. so for a dollar, may as well get it while you can.

Paid XDA is still plagued with same issues as free. Back to tapatalk

Getting a ton of force closes

It just started today. Anyone else?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App

Nope may want to check the latest app that you have installed or any recent updates
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App

Yeah backtrack your apps install and see what is causing the FC's.
I have two with a third on the way(long story) but nothing wrong with any one of them. Before the update the first one had a few lockups on the browser but after the update neither one had any lockups or FC's.
I have installed all types of apps just to see what will or will not work. Very few FC's if any at all. But I kept track of which apps caused the FC's to remove them until they get updated.

Its on apps like CNN and Facebook which have been working fine before. I guess I will try to track it back.

i get a lot of force closes with the browser and the CNN app. try killing the process as well as the cached process. theres two options. you will see it under 'running applications'

Only force close for me from the Facebook app so far is when I try to load the home screen widget. Slightly annoying.

I've had more FCs than I do on my rock-stable Droid 2 with Fission, esp. in the browser, but I suspect it's because Honeycomb is new.
It'll get more stable as Google handles bug reports and as devs learn how to use the new APIs.
Also, strict mode, which I need to get on, myself.

The FCs I get are retarded. I only seem to get them when I'm exiting out of the app anyways. I did get a FC once when I was using the Facebook app going from the stream to the home page thing, but it didn't actually close the app. So it's more annoying than anything.

the facebook widget and app are not designed for honeycomb, and many have stated it FCs. i would not use it for now. I use the app and it seems to work fine (not pretty, but works).
Also, OP. I used to get a tons of FCs in the browser and CNN. I cleared caches and uninstalled, but sometimes still the same thing. Try rebooting. I know it sounds cliched and the standard windows answer, but it honestly worked for me. I haven't had a FC in a while...knock on wood.

facebook is hit and miss. Sometimes after a boot the facebook app will work. Sometimes it won't. When it isn't working it will just fc constantly and is completely useless. The add account never works. The widget never updates.
Facebook is uninstalled till they fix it.

I get FC randomly, on random apps.. I report all of them.

Important to everyone about FC's, make sure you report them via the in system prompt that happens when they FC

Glad I'm not tithe only one who reports them all. Ha. :]
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App

Iv been getting a lot of FC's also.. even before I installed apps.. just seems that this is a lot more buggy then it should be.

Only FC I get is with the xda app, but that bug has been around for a long time. I dont use the facebook app and stopped using the CNN widget due to it slowing down the home screen. The app works fine for me though. On stock 3.0.1

Xda app

Shame the XDA app forces closed on Xoom... does anyone have a workaround?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App

this is a known issue and hopefully someone is working on it.
Tapatalk is basically the same app and works fine

i have the same and I paid for the app.......is anybody actively fixing this?

I have been using the XDA app since day 1. The only thing I have found I have to do is exit fully when done. I.e. I hit the back button till the app closes. If I leave it open for any significant time in the background it either gets stuck on the splash or whatever page I was on last. At that stage I force close and reopen it.

for some unknown reason the app works fine on the verizon xoom, but FCs for wifi-only; someone reported the same problem on the wifi-only transformer, so its got something to do with honeycomb without mobile data (some kind of id# or something?)

Wow. Really? So THAT'S why it crashes on tablets? I had always assumed it had something to do with the resolution being much higher than on a phone, but since you say the Verizon XOOM works, that blows that theory out of the water... I am going to see if my superiors have any idea why this is happening or if they can contact Tapatalk to fix the problem.

Fyi this problem does not exist on tapatalk.. has to do with something xda does differently

I have the Verizon xoom as well and I never had a force close. It does act weird sometimes, but it does on my nexus one as well.

Also goes along with what I've heard in the past... From what I've read, Tapatalk's standard client used to have this issue, but then it was fixed. Perhaps the XDA app can be rebased to the newer Tapatalk.

I have had no FC's on my WiFi only Canadian MZ604.
What I do have, though, is a weird scrolling issue on certain threads where the text will copy itself onto every pixel it crosses until I stop scrolling and the screen refreshes.
I did note that it seems to happen mostly with hyperlinked text. Another possibility is text that has had it's color changed. Will have to play around with it some more to confirm this.

i just use the browser now. Its no big deal with the bigger screen.

It would FC on my Nook Color as well, which is wifi only. I was hoping for a better experience once I got my Xoom wifi (I also got the paid app) but it behaves exactly the same: as soon as I log in it FCs.
