Ok heres the problem: I set my background to a Live Wallpaper (For example Galaxy (Default L-WP)) and am running ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro with 3D AppDrawer enabled.
When i now open the AppDrawer and scroll up and down, its VERY LAGGY(Not fluid). It isnt the CPU, its set to 1,3ghz and it still lags.
PS: It's not only the 3D Drawer.. every drawer lags.
Would you test this aswell and report, also does anyone know how to fix this its very annoying?
I don't know if this issue is related to yours but I often find that MS2's screen has a delay of fractions of seconds. I am pretty sure it is not the speed of CPU which matters, as such lag is not found in DEFY. So I am thinking this (and probably yours) is the problem of the optimization of the software (well we all know Blur sucks).

This is what I think. Sometimes my 3D Appdrawer with ADW Launcher EX is not fluid even without running any 3D Live Wallpapers.
And some games lag as well when they should not CPU wise.
Does MS2 require some kind of lagfix like the Samsung i9000 to make it more responsive?
I dont know.. would be interesting to know
I found the most recent version of ADW Launcher EX to be a little laggy, the prior versions were perfectly smooth for me.
If I have a LWP running then scrolling is generally laggy and not fluid, I experienced the same effect with all prior versions of ADW Launcher EX and launcher pro. (LWP = laggy scrolling)
When I say "laggy", I mean, the response to my touch is fine, but the motion is laggy/jittery
Thanks for repeating what i have said....

Hey everyone I am rooted and running cm6 so I don't have the fps issue. However alot of people have said that when scrolling it is not very smooth.
I have a fix that helps me a lot and I reccomend everyone trying it. I use launcher pro and think its awesome. But I havethe setting that disables wallpaper scrolling. This way tour wallpaper doesn't change or scroll. It helps a lot and looks as fluid as the iphone.
No adwlauncher=bad tip. There are scroll settings if you didn't know. Also clear data/after updates of rc and nightlies. Use darktremor app2sd.
ADW Launcher here.
If you don't use a live wallpaper, the app drawer = very smooth.
Scrolling between homescreens is smooth on Cm6 as well.
And you can even mess with scroll settings in ADW Launcher. I got it to a point where I like it.
Hello,
I don't know if anybody know about this fix or not, but I've just found a way to fix the lag when the home screen auto-orient from landscape to portrait and vice versa: click on the + button that you use to add widgets and apps to the home screen, select any tab other than the add widget tab, go back to your home screen and that's it no more lag! I believe the left and right screen transitions are smoother as well.
I do not know if this problem/fix is specific to our tab or honeycomb as a whole, but I'm glad I found a workaround since it was really bothering me. I hope this can be useful to somebody.
Wow - that really works well; thanks!
Hmm, still a bit laggy. 3-5 seconds to re-orient due to rotation. Seems too long, IMO.
...Ok, maybe a small reduction.
Hmmm 3 to 5 secs was what I had before the fix, it's now only about 1 sec.
Do you have many widgets and use a live wallpaper perhaps?

No live wallpaper, just minimalistic text and weather widget.
I don't know why but this works perfect! I went from a whole 6 seconds for the orientation to change to near instant changes. I noticed once you choose a different tab, I have apps shortcuts chosen, if you go back into the + menu that tab is still selected. This is a strange bug but awesome. Thank you
i really didn't spend much time on the stock launcher, but launcher pro switches quickly.

I concur. The best way to get rid of the lag is to use a different launcher. Personally, I prefer ADW Launcher EX because it is "optimized" for Honeycomb, but LauncherPro is a great alternative.
I've never had more than a 1 second orientation lag. What am I doing differently?

Are they smoother? I think my biggest Honeycomb pet peeve is the choppiness when swiping to different home screens. It makes the tablet feel slow to me. I have LauncherPro on my Nexus S but Im not sure if I'd use a phone launcher on a tablet...
Strangely its working !!!!!!!!!!!!
Huh, it does work. But doesn't survive a reboot. Have to redo after reboot.
Amazing indeed! Great find! Will test on my friends thrive tomorrow too. I think that HC, for some odd reason, is caching the widget drawer on the background and it might be straining the orientation of the device. They need to have HC keep the alo or other drawer on default instead to keep his from happening every time you restart.

thanks dude work like a charm
Anybody know if there is any way we can submit a bug report to Samsung/Google?

Same here and I'm using live wallpaper. Maybe it's the ROM I have loaded?
Hi,
I have a kindle fire powered with cm7. I really love it but I have some issues. I've searched for all but could not find a related post. Sorry if already explained.
1. I've heard people say its really smooth. I don't always get this feeling. In desktop transitions there is sometimes disturbing lag. Also in some apps it is much less smooth compared to my htc incredible s. I wiped cache dalvik and system as suggested. is there anyone that have it perfectly smooth? Or any suggestions to fix it?
2. Volume is sometimes not enough even with a good pair of headphones. is there a way to increase the maximum volume.
3. Icons and text are too small. I can change ro.sf.lcd_density in build.prop, but then status bar icons get huge. is there another way to change only icon size?
thanks for the help!

1. I am not experiencing any lag during transitions... especially not disturbing lag ;-) Have you tried the modified build.prop for CM7 found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424068
2. Not sure.
3. The icon size is set by the launcher and not by CM7. Have you tried using GO Launcher Pro, they are pretty huge by default.
I used go launcher back in stock rom. I installed it again now, I see it is better than adw, you can set icon size and transitions are smoother.
Thanks for reminding.
If you want smooth (and don't mind the price) look at SPB Shell in Market. Picks up the fact it's running on a 1024x600 device and activates the Tablet mode.
The reason for the lag is that CM7 comes with ADW.Launcher which for whatever reason seems really laggy on pretty much anything I've used it on. Try ADW EX ($3.99 in market) or Launcher Pro plus. Both have fully hardware accelerated interfaces that for me run ios smooth on the Kindle and on my 1st Gen HTC Evo.
ADW EX also has an option in the icon settings menu for "density hack" which makes the icons bigger and more tablet optimized.
Not sure about your sound issue so sorry on that one. Hope my other tid bits help.

I have ADW EX with the density hack enabled. When I reboot or sometimes just open and close an app the icons will go back to being small again. I have to go uncheck and recheck the density hack button or reset ADW. Does this happen to you?
thanks

Wow looks cool, but too expensive I think. Go launcher is quite fine in fact. Its as smooth as I want.
Thanks for all the answers!

I use "Equalizer" app from "Smart Android Apps, LLC" to boost my volume. On the Equalizer tab, boost all bands to maximum.
Thanks for the equalizer

Exactly what I want! Thanks a lot.
Normally volume is not low, but there are some apps/ videos that have volume lower than I need. This app solved it.
still laggy
Well, Go launcher solved smoothness problems in launcher, but in some programs its still much less smoother than my HTC Incredible S.
Why I'm not getting good performance? What can I try?

I do not use the density hack. I usually just use the small icons so I can't say to that.
BTW, Launcher Pro plus runs much smoother on the kindle than ADW EX. ADW EX is superior on my phone but Launcher Pro likes the hardware on the kindle. Just throwing it out there for anyone looking for a resolution to the "disturbing lag" lol. ;-)
V6 supercharger script made a large performance increase in CM7 as well. My kindle runs as smooth as any modded up android tablet now.

#2 - Volume level can be increased natively within CM7. Under apps, go to "DSPManager" -> Select the device (ie speaker) -> Enable the Equalizer and turn up all green bars to max which effectively creates a custom EQ profile.
this is just a shot in the dark but, dalingrin wrote an app for the Nook color called nook color tweaks, and one of the things it does is let it adjust the gain and stuff which allows your speaker to get louder. i know its for the nook color, but i think its worth a shot. its free in the market
V6

Which setting did you use in the script?
I just ran the v6 script setting at number 6 and it seemed to smooth things out a little bit. I would also like to know which option would be best and which one did you guys choose.
I sometimes see stuttering in the animation when I close apps (ie. Chrome), more prominent if I open/close quickly. The opening animation is fluid, only the closing (which is like a fading animation) stutters. I'm not really sure what the cause is...I tried the stock launcher (i'm running Cloudy G3 2.2) and there's no lag whatsoever when opening/closing. I also tried Apex launcher and no lag either. I like Nova Launcher and would rather use it over Apex, so was wondering if anyone else experienced this and had a fix.

Hi,
I have been using HD870DS for quite sometime now. While I don't really like the user interface, what stood out the most is the lag while clicking the icons and actually things happening. Take the example of opening settings menu and then opening its sub menus, there is perceptible lag even after disabling the animation, I have Honor 8 running same Android 7.0 feels faster, Is this normal? or is my device only, I have reset-ted the device couple of times but no avail. This extends to third party launchers too, this is the reason I uninstalled Nova and currently using LG Home launcher. While clicking some Icon in homescreen there is perceptible lag between clicking and app opening. Do you have this problem too?

nothing for me.... I use pixel 2 launcher... it's smooth as fluid....
Nothing here.... maybe some apps are causing this lag.

I doubt that because my freshly formatted G6 has lag albeit slight but noticeable to me.
Try toggling the "Force GPU Rendering" under developer option. And you will feel the difference. It will work smooth.
