The problem is, thats not just launcher pro its had the modaco RAM hack to move data to NAND. To do that you need root, and when the memory fills up the phone crashes.
If only Samsung could sort this properly in an update this phone would be tops. This whole lag issue is putting me of upgrading from my desire . I really want this phone but there really shouldn't be this issue

Yes there is one hidden thing here: If you have lots of heavy programs like some games, some navigation progs, google earth, you must keep those heavy programs in the old location. I did exactly this - moved to NAND everything except Google Earth, some Gameloft games and navigation. So now I have really fast phone, all my programs, and there is still plenty of space on NAND memory.
And it is just standart/stock XXJF3 firmware btw

What exactly is done to optimize Launcher Pro? Seems to me like the OS got optimized and Launcher Pro is just taking a ride on that performance gain.
This smells like a bull**** ad for Launcher Pro. Does it perform any worse running the vanilla home screen? I seriously doubt it. I even doubt the performance difference is very apparent comparing to TouchWiz.

Thats my video, but not my topic - and the name of the topic is a bit wrong Actually you are partly right - speed increase came from apps data on another partition and memory settings, however Launcher Pro performs faster than TW Launcher even with this optimizations. And I don't see any point in advertising Launcher Pro since its completely free - and even without ads as I can see.

Ofcourse there's a point in advertising free stuff. It sets the bars higher for the commercial stuff.
I don't see how a launcher can start apps faster than another? The "performance difference" I noticed when comparing Launcher Pro to TouchWiz seemed to be the transitions, not the actual loading of apps. While it adds a slight delay, it has nothing to do with performance. TW is a "smoother" experience than Launcher Pro, which is what I like about it (and which is also why I forgive it for looking way too much like iOS).
Would be interesting (but the time needed puts me off the idea ) to make a true comparison of the huge amount of alternative home screens available.

Could you post the steps for this?
The posts about this at Modaco are getting confused, with everyone sharing is way to do it.
I've done this with all apps, but without any games or major apps.
I think you have the best solution for this, just moving the most common apps to NAND.
Thats awesome!
I too would love to know the step by step for this...
Am i to assume with only the common apps moved the 130mb cap causing the phone to crash will never be reached? or?

I posted on the MoDaCo forum on how to do this for Google Earth, it assumes that you followed all of Paul's instructions in the thread (the original data is backed up to data.bak) and that you are familiar with using adb.
adb shell
su
You can check the amount of space utilised by your applications in the /data/data directory by doing the following:
cd /data/data
du -d1
To move Google Earth out of the way
rm -R /data/data/com.google.earth
ln -s /data/data.bak/com.google.earth /data/data/com.google.earth
Disclaimer: If you are uncomfortable doing any of this, don't do it!

I suggest, if you are not comfortable with these commands, just don't do it! Just root the phone and use MinFreeMem from market with aggressive preset, it will be quite enough speed!

Quick question: I am assuming that if you install something big, say Google Earth AFTER you have done Paul's mod, you will then have to move it from dbdata/data to data/data.bak and link it to /data/data from there. As it will go by default to dbdata. Correct?

Hi There,
Wasn't able to find MinFreeMem in Android Market - do you have any tips for me to find it?

minfreemem does not work in galaxy anyway.. it does not reset it at reboot. recommend you get autokill it does the same thing and does work at reboot.

Hello everyone and greetings from Denmark
Ok, I´ve asked in the german pocketpc.ch forum, and noone could help me, so I´ll try here (maybe someone can help me out here)
My "needs" for Android NAND rom:
- no Sense!
- fast
- stable
- the new Camera (not the one with focus on the outside)(the one with all those fiddly settings ^.^)
- should last at least 8 houres at heavy use (48 houres in standby/minimal usesage
I´ve tried a lot of roms through the last days, but none of them fitted my needs.
The one which come closest was: MarkinuX HD Extra Clean V1.71
But that one startet lagging after af few days =(
And I dont want to update my rom every few days, I need a rom which can run without performance issues, lagging and "need for update" for at least half a year
I´m desperate, and I hope some of you can help me =)
Thx and good night
BeeJay
Ultimate droid? From my past experiences, it was one of the best if not, best non sense rom for me.
I have no idea what camera you are referring to, but it probably has the stock android camera.
If you are referring to a camera which takes pictures that fill up the screen, has features such as vignette, depth of field, posterize, vintage, etc, you may be referring to a sense camera app. The sense camera app cannot be ported to a non sense build.
Just to note, no android build for us can last 8 hours on heavy use, none.
I don't think you can get a rom with virtually no issues around here, but all of them are good enough for daily use.
MarkinuX HD Extra Clean V1.71 had an uptime of 75 houres at minimum use (about 2 houres of "not standby", all the time 3G, pushmail 30 minutes, some facebook checks a day, about 20 minutes of gaming)
That was really impressive!
Yes, I think I mean the Sense Cam =/ Too bad, but nothing essential
I dont want the "old" Andoid cam, where the focus is set on the outer side of the (my Droid hat that one, sucked like hell)
After an update it had focus in the mid
Would you mind to post a link to the rom u recommended?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958953
There's a link to it. however don't be jumping onto it just yet. I haven't used non sense builds in a while so there might be a better non sense build. Just wait for people to reply if you can.
You could try a Cyanogen Mod ROM and maybe use a camera app like 'Camera360' to take pictures? Doubt you'll get that long out of the battery though.

There are 3 or 4 others. Just clean cache dalvik too and update any miui on another.
The standout features are,
1 Pulldown bar has a data toggle that actually works.
2 The best network usage monitor I have ever seen.
3 Its small, only 70 to 80 Meg update.
4 You can customize anything including fonts and all icons.
5 Its own built in music player downloads song lyrics which are played on screen as you listen.
6 Has its own legal market with apps we never see.
7 Has its own Dev site.
8 You can have as many screens as you want(12 for me) and no performance issues.
9 Text appear in a jump out box for quick reply.
There are many more standout features making miui the is of choice.
Good luck again.

They could just have called it: iUI
I've installed launch pro plus and now have about 250+mb free with many widgets onscreen. I guess touchwiz is resource hog.
Edit: after reading comments i switched to APEX launcher.. its even better.
Hows the multitasking on it.... can you play shadowgun, surf the web, do a text , make a call and then go back to the shadow gun game without the game having to restart. thanks
I thought LPP didn't work on ICS, I guess I was wrong!
Did you experiences any lags/slow-downs after that? I always thought touchwiz was hardware accelerated.
Launcher Pro hasn't been updated in forever. No thanks.
Nova or Apex Launcher would be my choice.

I have had mixed results running various roms. On some it didn't work at all and others very poorly. I have yet to see it work without any issues.

Just Flash It !!!
it works ... but the code is heavily outdated, project is abanconed by the developer.
better get nova launcher, it got way more features (but lacks the LP widgets -- but who cares )
And about the RAM: dont worry ... Android is designed to use its RAM, not to keep the RAM empty --- still 750mb left which is enough
Can you take a screenshot of the available RAM after using Launcher Pro?
People should stop using LPP. It hasn't been updated for over a year. No support. The developer is not responsive.
Do not support these types of developers.

Oh boy! Here we go again with the Windows mentality of wanting free RAM. You guys really have no clue. Please go read up on how Linux and Android uses RAM and why free RAM is not really a great thing.

Isn't free ram important ? I don't want to know the technical side or anything because as far as I know having free ram makes multitasking plain brilliant .... I will give u an example on sgs 1 the ram was 329 mb of which touchwiz usually took about 200 mb so when suppose one is browsing the web with multiple tabs with flash pages loaded touchwiz would crash and it would a couple of seconds to reload secondly the app drawer will also reload taking upto 5 seconds.....now all these problems were taken care of in sgs 2 because it had a lot of ram so for me its important ....I hope that on sgs3 the user experience is perfect just like sgs2 ...m really looking forward to it
Just to let you guys know, do not use a task manager that kills apps in your minfree. Only use the task manager Samsung gave you that is taking memory outside of your min free.

Hi
Before I start let me tell you that I just love this phone. It's amazing and super snappy.. Almost.
However the launcher redraws are so bad on this one.
Now this is my first Android cell, so I'm not sure if it's a Android issue or S3 issue.
Just a simple scenario. If I go to Play Store browse some apps, see few videos for say 5 mins max and hit the Home button, the launcher would redraw.
It easily takes about 5-6 seconds. Sometimes the home screen would appear in a second but If I hit the app drawer button, it would load for almost 4-5 embarrassing.
Now I know there are few solutions posted for it, but frankly I paid Samsung to do that for me. And to a noob like me, it's not very simple.
It's unbelievable how bad the problem is.
I think just locking it in the Memory, would solve the issue.
Why hasn't Samsung fixed it yet?
It's embarrassing that my old iTouch (I hate Apple btw.) could get out of heavy games within a second.
Why is this beast so laggy? Everyday I face this issue for 5-6 times.
It's driving me mad.
To be honest everytime I browse from more than 10 mins, I feel scared.
Will Sammy ever fix it or the only option is to go through the complex process posted in some other thread.
I'm seriously disappointed in this regard.
I'm on stock ICS, rooted btw.

I haven't had a launcher redraw since 1974 (ok, slight exaggeration). I have always rooted (there are lots of fixes for redrawers) but yes, JB fixes it.
I also downloaded Ram Manager Pro, as it has a "lock launcher in memory" option.
WHile that might have helped ( or just placebo) , but the problem is still there and I'm facing it a lot of times.

Are you using a custom Rom or still on stock? How about kernel? If you are rooted you can use titanium backup to freeze a lot of apps which will free up available RAM reducing redraws.
Use all in one toolbox. Goto boot speed up and see what 3rd party crap app is taking up your resources on boot up.

you don't sound happy with stock, maybe you should have a go at the latest LI5 jb leaks, the odin version seems to me to be the easiest way, takes about 5 mins literally.
Rumour has it that the official will be out sometime this week as an official update, but only on international roms i think.
I think if you want to update officially, you would need to flash via ODIN the international version of ICS which is Samsung official, and that will update when the time is right. if you are on a specific carrier version then they might take a while longer to push the updates to you! (at least that is what i am led to believe!)
By the way, i have never experienced any redraw problems from TW either on galaxy s2 or s3 using stock or custom roms. the JB roms are really smooth too.

Hi Guys,
I'm using the original stock rom but rooted it and now I have installed xposed, gravity etc. I also have approx 100+ apps ( including games ) in my phone installed at the moment. 3 Google accounts for Clash of Clans. I also have layers installed and using blue theme. I've also got games like Asphalt 8, deer hunter, dead trigger 2 like some big games maybe and it works flawlessly.
I've been using the same ROM from approx 1-2 months now and didn't change anything. It works fine but from few days, it started lagging, slow. I dnt know the issue and i seriously need a little help.
In my previous thread, i did not get any response so i am giving some more details.
Any suggestions please?
For some reason people just don't want to talk on this topic..
Well not 100% lag free but the best for me has been resurrection remix rom with squid kernel
Do remember u will be trading a lot of battery life for that performance boost
your requirements scream high end specs which the x play doesn't offer. ironically, the x 'play' is not really a phone for playing heavy games. 2gb ram and sd615 is mid-range at its best.

Well there's an app in the market called SD Maid its just like Tune Up Utilities but for a phone. Try that app it will clean the phone. I normally use it when I feel my phone laggin and so far it has worked for me. It is a paid app though.
Hope this helps.

I didn't wanted to comment but seriously looking at what you wrote, X play isn't the phone for you.

Mr. I understand that you don't want to help! That's the reason u don't reply me in other threads as well, coz you think this phone isn't for me? LOL!!
I am happy with my x play, and everyone has issues and to solve them this forum is there to help ppl and not giving suggestions like this phone is not for me etc. If you can't help! don't even reply just ignore? simple eh? I guess from now on you shouldn't even see my posts, threads etc. coz it will be useless for you? Get a life Mr K.Khiladi

There's nothing like LOL in that. If you knew what you are doing with your phone you wouldn't have to make a thread for making you device lag free.
Since the time moto has updated the OS to latest, there have been just battery life problems not a single lag problem as I keep a close eye on the forum sharing whatever I know.
You have installed 100+ apps, sync 3 Google accounts for a game and have such large amount of games. Your internal memory has most probably filled up by now and showing signs of lags and that's normal. I am sure you won't have cleared the cache also. Although layers are not responsible for lag until it's a heavy layer theme having custom background.
Reading about android and other problems can tell you these basic things for which a separate wouldn't be needed.
You need more performance, then move to a custom rom at the sake of battery life.
You need balance, then use stock rom.
You need more battery life but want to remain on stock, use custom kernel

hahah no, i like to keep them as and when required, depending on the mood i can use it and don't have to install it again.
Also, the 100+ apps are now 65 as i removed someone unwanted apps.

Sometimes when I don't have a answer, I don't reply. Its that simple.
Yes I am using RR rom. Its the best keeping in mind the customisation and performance.
All custom Roms have same battery life.

I had the wifi getting off on screen turning off because of dirty flashing.
Make sure you clean flashed and don't reboot in between flashing rom and Gapps.
I don't have any such problem till now.

If this problem still persists for you, try taking a logcat and posting it there tagging the developer along.

Have you also tried a startup manager to disable unwanted apps to load in memory at startup. This can really make a difference between smooth and laggy experience with 65 apps installed and pre-loaded in your memory.

@K.khiladi has given you some good advice!
I don't use RR myself (I have in the past but currently on Marshmallux) so this might not be applicable but if you have "Running Services" option in "Developer Tools" you should check in there and see if there's things running that you wouldn't expect. I've found some games to continue running in the background weeks after last playing them because they set themselves up to run on startup (where @Sickaxis79 's advice will now help you).
Anyways, just a thought. Also, I've found that I can't rely on too much shortly after a flash, I feel like it takes a few days/reboots before things seem to settle down.
