Recommendations to make better our SGS3 in every way possible

I would like to create a single post where we comment on recommendations to make better and faster and more reliable our phones, ways to decrease the RAM usage, extend battery life, useful tricks, etc.
- Disable all animations
- Disable buttons lights
- Download app named multitask shortcut
- Download SwiftKey 3 and Swype
- Use as less possible widgets and live wallpapers to avoid homescreen refresh
- Disable touch vibrations
Any other useful tips for making better the Galaxy S 3 experience are welcome.

I used to use touchwiz, but can't stand the slow transition, even after making the adjustment under development in settings.
Then i install Nova launcher, turn transition to the fastest. Wow, now my phone has over 300 mb free ram after boot up and is fast. And I mean real fast. For those who need speed. Go with Nova, and you retain most of the touchwiz features, like smart stay.

I thought touchwiz launcher still runs in background even though you install another launcher?

ok thanks. I didnt know that as in the sgs2 days, freezing the twlauncher might lead to softbrick. Will try it later.

Just did everything in the op and phone feels tons faster

Wow guys seriously. So you disable everything fancy , what's the use of such a powerful processor. You could've got S1 if you wanted to disable every eyecatchy stuff .
All these animations shouldn't give S3 any kind of hiccups. I use a ton of widget and all animations are turned on (Although to a scale of 0.5 ). It's super fast and
on stock

I agree with you. I never understood the need fit the latest and greatest only to dumb it down. I don't get cm9 you can run it on many of phones so why spend the money on all the flash. I'm thankful for cm 9 cuz of my HP touch pad is now usable but will never understand the need to make every new phone plain. Just my thought not flaming anyone i like change sometimes

Jelly Bean RAM Hog

OK guys after spending two days with the new Samsung official software I was wondering if anyone else thinks that its a RAM hog. I have to keep killing the apps in the task manager otherwise I see lag while opening apps and things. Anyone else think this? Or could this possibly be because I quickly loaded about 40 apps onto the device? Any thoughts? Personally I hope Samsung will just improve and mature the software and it will get smoother. If not I might grab one of those deodexed ROMs.

I heard that Android loads apps in RAM for faster use unlike Windows. So if you close them, it loads them again, and that causes more bettery use. So why don't you try the phone without closing apps and compare which works better. Some poorly written apps cause lag and consume alot of system resourses. They should be closed and better be uninstalled.

Get OMEGA 27. It is very snappy. Make sure you do a complete wipe meaning formatting system and reinstalling all your apps.
It is very snappy. Do a custom install and choose to install or not install V6 SUper Charger which always leaves 200 mb of free ram. Your phone won't multitask as well but it will keep everything fluid.
Although I optioned not to install V6, and everything has been perfectly fine.
YOu can always install or uninstall mods thanks to OMEGA FILES that comes with the phone. Highly recommended.

I just did a Google search of it and it seems that the quadrant score is fairly low and about the same as stock? Is that true and reflective on the ROMs performance?

So I had a quick look around and I think it would be between the RonenROM and Omega v27. Thing I can' stand about custom ROMs is the frequent updates and having to reinstall ROMs and that. Anyway, I might chuck one if them on. Any thoughts?

Why are you worried? I stuck with Omega 13 for months. You should only force an update if you were:
1. Trying a test rom and then official came out.
2. Or if it has problems and a X.1 version came out.
Omega only updates every time a leak rom appears but that doesn't mean you have to update.

I haven't checked quadrant but the point of Jelly Bean is that it implements a better use of a GUI than ICS. So quadrant isn't going to take those kind of things into account.
Omega 27 is working better than Indies last ICS for me which was 13.1

quadrant doesn't mean a thing about how snappy the rom is.
Uninstall quadrant as it serves no REAL purpose.

stock odexed here, just cleaned up 300mb of bloatware. RAM at the end of 2 days is 600MB used, didn't cleaned up RAM. You better don't cleanup, it will just piss off the apps and will consume more juice.

Slow gallery?

When I take a picture and go to the gallery by clicking the picture it takes like 5 seconds to load which is slow in my opinion. Is this normal?

How is it not worth $200? It's been said to be one of the best phones out, even been said to be better than the S4. AND guess what? There is NO lag on the One. It's your opinion tho, so whatever.
About the lag, on my Note 2 it would sometimes take a second to open, is it really that bad on the S4?

I had a lag with gallery once. About a minute after, I got a notification that StoryAlbum had created a new album, even though I had not run StoryAlbum. Apparently it runs in the background sorting through your pictures. I disabled StoryAlbum and have not seen any lag since.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2

I was having the same issue, but after reading the system logs I saw that Gallery was making some Samsung API to spam on the logs about streaming data. There was something on the log about my media servers on my network too, like PLEX.
So my best guess is that Samsung has an app which discover and syncs media, and the Gallery uses it to show pictures on the cloud. So the problem is that this discovery app has a bug which is causing the system loop on requests.
After some hours letting the Gallery consume my battery, I went to battery info and found the app that had been doing it.
Solution: deactivate Nearby Service(AllShareMediaShare.apk). That fixed the problem.
Disabling remote content(Gallery > Menu > Content to Display[or something like that]) and syncing(Gallery settings) also made the Gallery app goes really fast!

Lag on the galaxy note 10.1 2014

Hi just went to bestbuy to test the overall performance on this tablet. Sad to say that when i tested the exynos variant, I did encounter lag when I was scrolling the home screen. What I mean is that it doesn't feel smooth. Also pulling out flipboard caused lag. Trying to run a couple of applications like s note. It's not major lag that will take away the whole experience. Just lag that you'll notice from time to time even if it's minor. What's your opinion on this and how do you feel about the exynos? Is it still going to be worth it sacrificing a bit of performance for cheaper price and getting it earlier. Should I wait for the snapdragon variant since it might be faster. But it's also going to be more expensive and I won't be needing LTE. I had really high hopes of this tablet too.

Too many variables. How much other stuff was running in the background? Did you do all this testing after a fresh reboot? Who knows what the people before you were doing to it. And every Samsung experience running full blast does take it's toll, all those widgets updating all programs running etc. I'm just saying it's not all doom and gloom... Just tweak it.

Even in the my magazine app? I hate the stock tw launcher, I wonder how much resources it takes up

I think early technical analysis showed that the exnyos governor was not exactly optimized. I'm sure this thing will fly with the proper rom. I rommed my note 2 and last year's 10.1 when I felt lag was hindering the experience and both were super fluid after modification. Samsung uses good parts. Tw just tends to be bloated.

Totally agree on that. All android tablet has come so close. When I saw the 1st gen of the note 10.1 I thought it was the one for me. But with the screen resolution, it was a big let down for me. This year this is the one. Only thing that's stopping me now is the performance.

I may not be as tech savvy as many of you, but I just got this tablet and the performance is amazing. I have 12 active apps running and I don't notice any lag navigating the menus. I've been working in dropsync and synced a whole bunch of files while messing around with it and still noticed no lag whatsoever. I did notice that it gets a bit warm on the back though.

Galaxy S6 RAM Issues May Be Intentional

While Samsung’s TouchWiz interface has by no means been among the top skins to be implemented by manufacturers, the Korean company has never given up on improving the custom Android interface. Most of the criticism revolves around the effects TouchWiz can have on the fluidity of a device’s interface, as well as the overall appearance the company imposes on their users. With the latest Galaxy S6 smartphones, Samsung has shipped a newer version of the TouchWiz interface, which Samsung claims is both lighter in system resource consumption, as well as a more refined experience.

TouchWiz is themeable, and if you still aren't happy, you can buy something else--Samsung isn't holding a gun to your head. Besides, it's irrelevant to the supposed topic of the article and only serves to set a negative tone. This is little more than a biased and poorly executed opinion piece.

You clearly dont know what you're talking about, I had memory leak issues on Nexus 5 but I still could have over 15 apps in recent tabs without reloading unless ram usage is over 95%... On S6 even after restart, when ram usage is 60% I cannot have more than 3 apps in recent tabs.. Explain me now, how can memory managment and memory leak be the same? smartass ..
P.S (memory IS RAM lmao) memory doesnt clearly mean RAM, there is memory in GPU, drives, sd cards, etc.

the mods used for memory leak is specifically in regards to ram management which you modify the android system to run more apps in memory at a time without the system forcing them to restart.. this is available as well as included in many roms already..
RAM = Random Access Memory which is obviously the memory i was referring to.. if i was referring to any other memory i would have indicated so but assumed it was safe to simply say "memory" and you would know what memory i was talking about since the main topic is RAM memory.
Im not trying to argue, you made a post i said there is a fix for it already because there is. You can not believe me all you want, i could care less lol.

Memory leak is different than ram management.
Memory leak is pre-5.1.1 where the phone gets slow over a longer period of time but a reboot fixes it. The colour fade fix is one of the memory leak fixes.
Memory management is the multitasking issue we are having where apps don't stay alive while multitasking!
