[Q] Do you guys have any lag issues? - Atrix 4G General

What do you guys think of the keyboard lab issues? Lag with opening the notification bar?
Have you had any? I had a lot with the keyboard while trying it out in the store (although I doubt that phone had been restarted anytime in the recent past). Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izxrt84JeI8 @ 8:00 (he sums up the lag problems in this video)
I like the phone but I just feel that these lag issues are going to annoy the hell out of me after a while...Bell doesn't have as long a policy as 30 days so buying this phone just to try it out is more trouble than it's worth I think...
Thanks,
Elliott

I have from time to time a lag in the notification bar when I try to pull the bar down. This happens most often when I get a notification while the phone is in sleep mode. Waking up the phone and then pulling down the notification bar is often after the second or third attempt possible.

I had the same lag after unlocking the phone and trying to pull down the notification bar. Annoyed me to no end and people thought I was crazy... glad to see I wasn't the only one who isn't blind lol.

Thanks guys. Do/did either of you have LauncherPro installed? Was the lag any better?

if you want smoother scrolling through the menus and whatnots, launcherpro is the way to go.
there is lag here and here but unlike the stock android with motoblur, i can live with this type of lag. it's not even that bad at all - with launcherpro.

Yea...I'm most worried about the keyboard lag which seemed very bad when I was testing it out and the reviewer above said the same thing...what do you think about it? I was making a lot of mistakes because it couldn't keep up.

Launcher pro essentially fixes it

I'm using the Modaco made Gingerbread launcher and experience no lag at all.

I am on my second Atrix and both had the same problem so I guess it is a software problem.

Hmm...thanks guys. Anyone else have this issue? And does freezing MotoBlur/using LauncherPro fix this?

Yes, using another launcher does fix it.I'm using go launcher ex and while the drawer isn't as smooth as launcher pro's (i think because it's skinned), the home screens are smooth as butter, like launcher pro's. Freezing and replacing moto's stuff makes it a really good phone!

He is making tons of mistakes while typing, and it sounds like he is blaming it on the phone. Watch his fingers.

I agree on what you said, but any chance this is the fault of the phone not being able to keep up? I've seen him do the same thing on the Nexus S and not make any mistakes...maybe it's just me.
Anyone else have lag issues?

Does the lag go away with the latest update?

You dont need to freeze anything to get it running smooth. Just remove all widgets/shortcuts on blur since any launcher you install would run on top of it

I heard Go Launcher does the best job eliminating all lags.

I'm NOT whining: Lag on jp6 Froyo is real (proof)

Check my Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fds9eccI9OA
I did a FR before flashing with Kies, and after flashing. Also did a clean install of all apps and settings and a cache wipe.
maybe 50 pics, 50 mp3s and 100 apps and 4 widgets running.
This video was taken just 15 minutes after a reboot.
Do people consider this whining?
EDIT: Spend 6 minutes looking through the video. The lags gets worse and worse.
That is the worst lag I have ever seen, I understand if you are upset, for me the lag is 1-2 second pauses now and then.
Was it as bad on 2.1?
Looks bad. Anyways try getting rid of the batt app that lets you know of the batt percentage on the notifications tray. I got rid of mine and the phone is much quicker.
Good luck i feel for you buddy.

Something is hogging the cpu.. Or a process is creating a problem. What happens after you clean the memory in the taskmanager? This isn't normal.

The icon is just the alarm clock.
Ending all apps does not solve much. The lag returns almost immediately.
Was this lag meant to be so, i mean is it intended to blame the phone? I'm sure this is not normal, and have never seen lag like this. Mostly its 1sec (i know many complain about this) but blink twice and it will load

Sorry, but I have to disagree. I think this is relevant enough to put in a separate thread.

The lag was almost like this also with jf3 and jm1.
Not many apps running simultaneously, so I don't see the problem...
Not to disparage what you're experiencing there mate but I flashed JP6 yesterday and I can honestly say so far it's been smooth sailing even without any lag-fixes, as opposed to when I was on 2.1 just prior and things were about the same as what you've got here. Did you do a TitaniumBackup restore or anything?

Hmmmm, the only thing I can think of (and this'll probably sound silly) but you might want to try without a SIM in it. I remember people with Milestones having damaged/faulty SIMs which would cause their phones to slow right down.
Also, sorry but I have to admit I got a good giggle from the fingers tapping at ~4:30 :3

It depends WHAT you are running. In your movie you say stuff like "wow, 5 apps running", but widgetlocker for instance I know slows the phone down a bit.
The number of apps means very little (I can make a computer lag by encoding a video and messing around in photoshop too). It's what you are running that matters. Maybe you should try to work out which applications are causing issues (there is a good reason why I got rid of widgetlocker though).
Anyway, this thread should be closed as a dupe. It doesn't warrant it's own thread, as you aren't a celebrity, and other people have already posted video's onto the existing threads.Your case is no more important than the others.

That's part of the problem, it probably depends on what you are running, so whatever was slowing down your phone significantly before, has probably been reinstalled..

Wasn't running anything after fresh boot. The video is from first screen taps on this freshly booted phone.
EDIT: Removing Widget Locker does not help... Tried that.
here it's unbelievable stable(jpk+oclf+4wks+120apps), guess it was a wise choice not going jp6/m.
But why are there 5 apps active? I have several active widgets but they don't show up as a regular process(es) here.. I'm sure that my phone would lagg too while running 2 games, 2 web browsers and navigational software on the background. =/
I doubt it was acting like this from flash off right?
Do you consider that the hardware may have been damaged!? You have your warranty, get another one .

Well.. That's my point.. Your apps must be doing something that is sucking up your CPU... because I'm running Messaging, Launcherpro, Jabberoid (not listed in active apps), sipdroid (not listed in active apps), and a live wallpaper. I suspect that your apps are possibly running a few things not listed in task manager.. Also, are you running custom widgets (I'm not using any, which might be adding to the jumpiness). I also only have 50 apps.
I have noticed your app list contains MANY custom widgets..
So, I suggest working out what specifically is causing your issues. But I can honestly say I don't get lag like that on my phone..

Well, the apps "running" in task manager are only the six most recent apps. I am only using 4-5 widgets on this video. I have also tried without any widgets. Same problem.
Will get a new replacement phone (have made a deal with Samsung, just waiting for a new one).

Return The Phone

Just been on the phone to Samsung service centre in the UK and they said if u are not happy with the phone u have 28 days to return it, from where u got it and they will replace it with a new one...

Odd that Samsung would do that as its not their responsibility .

since samsung does not sell the phone directly, where exactly are they claiming you can "return the phone to within 28 days"? i would think that depends on the place in which you purchased it. and i dont think its the same for every store.
i'm confused.

So your wake up is slow to is it ??
Ive taken my sd card out now to see if it makes a difference sometimes it wakes instant, sometimes not. but as i said there is s little lag with the phone, message. and contacts app, and a cpl of widgets.
Wifi also, i just want my phone to be right
if your using samsung widgets thats your issue. that **** will slow down a f15 fighter jet.

So I just did the video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Htp1BvOO3AM
Just have hidden messages but didn't accelerated or cut a part of the video.
And yes wakeup is like 1sec delay and can be annoying.
I'm not seeing any slow downs. At all. I had 3 HD games open (Nova, Lets golf 2, and Real Football 2011). I was playing Nova and it was getting a bit heated and I didn't know why but there was absolutely no lag so I didn't pay attention to it, figured the game is taking up quite a bit of power. I stop after about 30 min, and go into task manager to see... all 3 games were running. That was just f'in impressive... the phone taking all this without lagging even a second.
I dont have any samsung widget lags either : \ Before this I was using launcher pro on Galaxy S 1 with an axura custom rom which was relatively lag free (just saying that because I'm not comparing TW 4.0 launher with TW 3.0).
Having said that, the only slight delay I have is when I pinch in all the homescreens. Even that is just a slight stutter if anything. The live widgets I have on desktop are Gallery (cycling through abotu 100 12MP pics), weather, task manager, Email, Sticky notes, Poweramp music player, Youtube, FML, Yahoo Finance, several Pulse feeds, and calendar). These are my live widgets plus ive got a few app shortcuts scattered around. So I'm not too upset with the pinch on home screen causing a bit of stutter since suddenly all those things are being live refreshed/updated.
If you have the lag you're talking about... I'd say something is wrong with your phone.

Go Launcher ex problems

Anyone else run this app.? It seems so great at first and I really want to like it, but it seems like everytime I go back to my homescreen I'm missing widgets. Its been a problem from earlier version which is why I stopped using it. I really want this to work because it has some excellent features. Anyone else have any of these issues? I'm asking herr because I want to see if its epic related because I don't see anyone else complaining about it.

Yeah - an update just hit that is causing this old bug to pop up again. Only happening on one of my screens though. Just so happens to be the one with the XDA and PPCGeeks apps on it!
Love the new TV animation for the App Drawer, and the cylinder icon animation is bad ass.
Try going into Prefrences -> Advanced -> Clear Rubbish Data.
They implemented that when that problem started arising.
ill try again..
Yeah I've used ADW and LP for about two months each. Switched to Go Launcher about 3 months ago and haven't looked back. Never had any problems with it at all.

I use Go Launcher Ex and have had no problems with anything at all. The only issue I had ever had with widgets was with Elixir but that was an Elixir problem, not a Go Launcher problem.
I had major problems w/ GO Launcher
GO Launcher used to be useless on my phone (I'm running stock) in the sense that I couldn't customize anything. I really wanted to see how it felt fully functional so I factory reset my phone and now it works flawlessly.

Home lag on verizon versions?!?! *LAUNCHER REDRAW updated w/ vids*

i don't get it...how has no review shown this at all?
when you go home, the phone lags out for like 2 seconds. you can't switch screens..it's like it's unresponsive for a second or two before it starts chugging along. this wasn't shown in any video at all.
try it with keyboard up or without..you'll notice it with keyboard, because when you hit home, it takes like 3-4 seconds for the keyboard to dropdown and go away..that's bc it's like hung up when you're going home.
anyone else notice this? other than that, this phone rocks.
*edit*
the issue is def launcher redraw. when it's redrawing, it doesn't allow you to switch between homescreens or open folders, and it's a delayed response if you attempt to. hopefully our devs can do a modded launcher that won't redraw, or we can get some kinda bulletproof launcher script going.
VIDEOS:
of course when i went to film it, i couldn't get it to do it. took forever, but i finally got something. it isn't the 100% frozen issue, but it shows it getting caught mid-home screen because it's trying to redraw the launcher.

**NOTIFICATION DROPDOWN LAG SOLVED**
and here's the super annoying notification dropdown lag on the lockscreen (this happens when youre on the launcher and you unlock..if you're in a settings menu and your phone locks, and then you hit power and do the dropdown on your lockscreen, it WON'T lag like this..it will only lag if the last place you were was the launcher. wtf is up with this stupid launcher? lol)
turns out that you CAN NOT set a homescreen wallpaper to NON SCROLL, or else you get this annoying lag. as long as you set a wallpaper to SCROLL, then it won't lag at all. makes absolutely NO sense, but yeah. just tested.

Can you explain this a bit more? I am not entirely sure what you are referring to. I assume you are saying when in a messaging app and you have the keyboard up? My keyboard drops pretty quickly but i am also using thumbkeyboard. I've always had issues with stock keyboards.

had to lay down the law on their asses. bunch of douchebags lol
anyway, doesn't happen everytime...any of you use swiftkey? when youre using the keyboard and you just hit home, it stays up for like, 3 seconds or so. it's getting caught up somewhere with the launcher perhaps.

ha i should've known it was swiftkey! bah.
i remember when i got the gs4 there were reports of swiftkey literally lagging down the phone by just being installed, even when not in use.
i LOVE that keyboard, but damnit, they really need to optimize it correctly!
Have to agree about SwiftKey. It lags on my nexus 7. It is absolutely frustrating on my gnex. Seems to run fairly well on the nexus 4 and on the s3 with aokp.

eh just uninstalled swiftkey and it made no difference. it's like when you go home, wait a second and then start scrolling, or else you'll notice lag. i'll just stop trying to be so speedy on my phone
A phone with these specs shouldn't lag. I sure hope the bootloader gets unlocked so aosp can be installed. That made a huge difference on the s3. I personally haven't gotten the phone yet. I am trying out a nexus 4 on t-mobile. Unfortunately, I get no signal in my house. So t-mobile is a no go. I was hoping this could be my next Verizon phone, because my gnex lags terribly. Using this nexus 4 is spoiling me quickly.

lol i doubt i got a dud. although, i did have to return the first one the second i powered it on bc of dust under screen adn dead pixels. they gave me such a hard time because they're a bunch of morons at corporate stores and weren't going to let me exchange it.
had to lay down the law on their asses. bunch of douchebags lol
anyway, doesn't happen everytime...any of you use swiftkey? when youre using the keyboard and you just hit home, it stays up for like, 3 seconds or so. it's getting caught up somewhere with the launcher perhaps.
oh well, no biggie. phones sweet.

Yeah man, sorry I gave you an early approval that SwiftKey was working smooth. It does most of the time, but I have major lag when the keyboard is up and I hit the home button to get out of Hangouts. It takes up to 5 seconds at times. :banghead:

yup! so it's a combo of swiftkey and i'm thinking the launcher perhaps. i now wait a second before i start moving around in the launcher, or else there will be much lag and delay.

I have always loved SwiftKey and exclusively use it, but I don't want to get rid of this phone just because of it. You have any other keyboard suggestions?

Have you experienced lag?

Do you experience lag when using the phone. I've experienced lag during basic operations like working with emails in Inbox, app drawer, recent apps, quick menu, scrolling nearly anywhere, etc.
The only lag I've seen thats really bad for me is when swiping to close apps.

I've only seen it on the keyboard when I'm texting...seems to work fine in every other app though.
Only very occasionally with the keyboard.

I wonder if it's the phone or just a Google keyboard issue? Definitely not a big deal, but kinda frustrating
I thought I was the only one seeing small keyboard lag lol otherwise everything else is OK.
I am using SwiftKey and the emoji's lag. In the phone app when scrolling through the history - terrible stutter...I mean really bad! Other than those two..which are not that important...the phone is great!
The contacts list in Hangouts is pretty laggy for me but that's the app, not the phone. I'm very happy with my purchase.
No Lag but I have had several crashes/restarts. I'm trying to figure out if I have an app causing me the problem. I'm using Nova Launcher and may try to use the Stock one for a bit to see if that is the cause.
I'm using nova. No issues like that. I've noticed a change since I did a factory reset. You may try that.
Since we are talking about lag and speed in this thread I figured I'd post this comparison between the Pure and the S6. I recommend you take a look, I was surprised at the results. His second time through the test is pretty telling.

What lag.
I get minimal stuttering whole scrolling through screens here and there but really nothing major

Coming from a G4 (lag central), I can't tell any lag. I did have one issue where I apparently had too many running apps/processes at once and the phone froze for a few seconds. I cleared all of my running apps, freeing RAM, and haven't had the issue since.

I've been experiencing stuttering around the device, it's not a big deal however. I think the 808 is struggling with the 1440p display.

This is what I'm seeing. Although my wife's phone seems pretty smooth.......
Since the Google App updated with the vertical scrolling feature, I am not getting much lag anymore.
I Have had the phone since the 16th and have had maybe one or two times when the multitasking screen lags just a little when 1st opened. That's all I have seen in my week of owning the Moto X.

Is everyone that's not experiencing lag using the 64gb version?
