A Trick to Speed Up Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Stock - Galaxy Tab 2 General

When you boot up your Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, you will notice that the launcher has lag. You can make it smoother by locking and unlocking the device. It is a weird trick, but works on my device. Did this work for you?

Sorry, no. Did not work for me (p3110).

Sorry, not work for P3110. TouchWiz lag, PlayStore lag...

no it will not work...
Touchwiz lag bcoz when device starts then important processes are started which uses cpu causing lag.but after these are started device is smooth...

I have a P3113 running build UEBLG5. You have to unlock the device and let all of the notifications load through then lock it and unlock it. I use Swipe unlock, so it may depend on the type of method you are using to unlock your device.

For me Stock is faster and smoother than CM10. I use Apex Launcher and have removed many default apps through Root Explorer. Am very satisfied.
My ROM is DDBLF3 (Indian), ICS 4.0.4

LG Optimus "Home Launcher"

UPDATED: 10/18/10
SOME BUGS HAVE BEEN FIX AND U CAN FOLLOW THIS THREADS

This is awesome. Hopefully this will be tweaked to be more stable.
Where can I find a dump of this? I want that "video editor" app.
I thought this was going to be lame like the Galaxy S launcher, but it actually looks pretty cool. I might try this out if someone gets it stable.
Has anyone tried this for the HTC Incredible yet?
LG Home force closes on moto droid. The home selector works well though.

Same!
I don't think I'll try this though, I'd love it if launcher pro did this, but there are things about launcher pro that I like, and won't give up for it.
Tried on HTC Incredible running virtuous rom.
And... This is amazing. This is my new default home.
Only 2 problems so far and both are not important.
1. if you try to use the picture frame the phone freezes. - no big deal just don't use it.
2. If you are in lg home and select it on the home launcher it will force close. - this is not a big deal either because if you are in the lg home why would you select it
Edit. Uninstalled this. Two big problems. Pressing home force closes. And randomly when browsing photos phone will freeze

Seems to work fine on the Galaxy S, might even replace Launcher Pro if I don't find any serious bugs, thanks!

I installed on my vibrant and so far is running great , I love it!
How do you install it ? Just flash both files one at the time? I have a desire with modaco rom
thx!
Works Great
You can place the apk on your phone from your computer and open it on your phone click on it to install.
By the way it works great on my Samsung Galaxy S I9000
Can I run these widgets in Launcher Pro?
Just did a quick test, and yes, not sure how stable they are, just switched to Launcher Pro, selected them and that was it.
Tested on Nexus One and works like the TS said, only force close when using the Home button but after force close everything works again. Pretty strange but I'm sure it can be fixed. Looks like one of the best launchers I've tried tough.
Works great on Galaxy S i9000 running froyo jpc. LG has done a neat job..
Force close really needs to be fixed
No matter what I do the apk's in the LG Home.zip is broken..
Tried lots of browsers and archive managers.
NO Work fine in HTC Hero with nfroyo 2.2

twitchy browser, zooms in out while scrolling?

Does anyone else have this annoyance?
While scrolling up or down the browser will sometimes zoom in and out of its own accord.
Is there a fix or tweak for this please. ?.
I have tried other browsers, same problem...
It is normal. Touch wiz has edge zoom on the edge of the browser window. I and many others hate this feature with the burning passion of a thousand exploding stars. There is no fix on stock for this known to me. The only thing you can do is invision the fleas of a hundred camels all bitting the genitalia of the nimconpoop who thought this was a good idea.

It's by design and it's gone with the latest JB update (LL3).
I must be one of the few who used this... I mean, it IS an annoyance during normal use but if you pair the tablet with a BT mouse (which is extremely useful to me on some occasions) it's very useful because you can zoom in and out without touching the screen.
Anyway, it works (worked) only on the stock browser, on Chrome, Opera or any other one it doesn't (never has).
Just to clarify, this happens on me when scrolling from anywhere on the screen not just from the side? And with other browsers...
Did they deliberately go out of their way to make it twitchy?

Then you must have some other problem..
I have never used my N8000 under ICS because the day I bought it was the day they released JB for the N8000 ( :highfive: ) so I updated it as soon as I got it out the box but on the 2 versions of JB I have been running the tablet was/is almost perfect.
I recently updated to LL3 ITV (the Italian one) and then flashed through Mobile Odin Pro the CWM 6.0.2.3 (the touch version) to complete the update. The update solved the only problem I had with LJ9 which I have been running since I bought the tablet 2 months ago: the keyboard lag (and a problem in the gallery displaying high-res pics has been fixed too).
Very welcome changes are also more MultiWindow apps (and among them Youtube finally!), the return of the S-Note widget which lets you display a note on the home screen and some other minor features which can be enabled under settings.
Polaris was also updated (the update was previously shown as available in Samsung Apps but attempting to actually updating it resulted in Polaris FC'ing) and now the system OTA update check works even if the system is rooted and has a non-original recovery.
BTW, I usually do full wipes and a clean install but out of sheer lack of time this one time I have updated through Mobile Odin Pro (and have kept root). Everything runs beautifully but, again, apart from the annoying keyboard lag I really didn't have any real problem before too.
What a fantastic tablet.

Yea it still zooms in other browsers for me as well. But if its zooming away from the e6dge try a factory reset id say.

Is there a good alternative for Contacts / Dialer ?

I currently own a ATT S4, it's rooted with Wanam Xposed Framework, Nova launcher, Stock Nexus messaging app, etc... And I must admit I really like this phone a lot, after having an Nexus 4, and Galaxy Nexus before that. The battery life on this S4 is freaking amazing, easily 50% better than my Nexus 4. I get 5h -5.5h On Screen time every day, and I really like the 1080p screen, very beautiful. And this phone is plenty fast for me, no lag with Nova set to "Faster than Light"
TouchWiz is pretty much hidden away with all the other .apk's I have installed. But the one thing I HATE on TW is specifically the Dialer and Contacts. Swiping to make a phone call is ****ing stupid, and not being able to swipe from the contacts to the phone dialer is another mistake.
And pressing the Phone app, or the Contacts app, are the only two apps, that have a slight pause or delay, not really lag, just a pause till it opens up. No other app does that, everything else opens up in a blink of an eye.
But other than that, I do like TW, and the other cool features it has, and I use. But would love to find a stock Nexus Dialer and Contact .apk, but not sure those would ever work on a TW phone ? And I can't flash any zips, due to being on MF3 firmware I can only do .apk's with Root Explorer. Is there something similar to the stock Nexus dialer/contacts on the Play Store ? And something that is not laggy or worse than even the stock TW ? Some of the Play Store might look like a stock Nexus app, but are actually slower, and worse.
I found this app on the Play Store, and it seems very much like a stock nexus dialer, pretty quick, and light
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dexetra.dialer&hl=en
Checked my Greenify settings, this 'dialapp' is running big time in the background, with lots of wake times. Looks I need to delete it now. Dang, can't I just install the stock Nexus dialer from an older 4.2.2 build, and delete the Samsung TW dialer ?
ExDialler is good too.

I tried both apps, Dialerapp and ExDialer, and they were good, but still have TouchWiz running behind them, when pressing to hang up, it shows the TW interface there, or some other areas still show TW. I thought these apps would erase and get rid of TW 100%, guess not.
I suppose I could try to delete all Samsung Phone / Dialer .apk in /system with Root Explorer ? Would love to be able to push a 4.2.2 based CM10.1 phone.apk, but I think that might screw things up ?
I also tried a lot of Dialers some time ago, while I was still on S2. I settled for RocketDial. This app does everything and is incredibly fast. Costs money, but it's worth it in my opinion.
dialer + , has kinda stock android look
Yes, whatever third party dialer you install, the TW will stay there, as it's in the core of the TW framework. I don't think there's a way to completely uninstall it, rather you shouldn't.

[Q] How to run applications in tablet mode?

Phone: Galaxy Note 4 910C Exynos
I've been trying to get Evernote and Gmail to run in tablet mode for a few days with no avail.
I've tried Xposed app settings tweaks and a few other tablet-mode xposed mods which at most crashed the system UI.
Does anyone know a working way to accomplish that on the Note 4?
I have the same question?
I'm trying to accomplish this on Firefox to force it in tablet mode. I have no problems on my Note3 to get it, but on Note4 it wont work. Did anyone get it to work and how?
Im on DR.Ketan ROM with multi DPI on note4 ... and on my note3 (which works great without any modifying) im using x-note ROM.

Use "App Settings" Xposed Module. You can change the DPI in a per app basis and force tablet ui mode too (touch "resolution" and apply the biggest one).

Hi,
there is an app that I've used for it on my n910f.
UI Tuner (aka Window Manager) on Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bassel.uituner
It works like App settings. Go to menu in UI Tuner and select per app settings. From there you can choose the app you want to run tablet mode. Just type an lower density value and higher screen size. You can google for some tablet values.
More information you can find here on xda. Search for window manager.
It didn't work for me. Looks like there is no way to run firefox in tablet mode on note4 ...

Sorry mate. For other apps it worked for me. But Firefox app seems get some device information (assume from build.prop) to recognize which mode it should start, so it is no matter what dpi or screen size you have.

Probably In Xposed AppSettings it changes the DPI like it should, but firefox just doesnt recognize it. I cant get behind the logic of that, because on the Note3 the same version works excellent in tablet UI. Looks like i have to switch completely to the RAM eater chrome.
Ill ask it in the ROM section, maybe its something ROM related or the dev could help me out.

I found that setting the global DPI on my G4 with textdroider changed Firefox into tablet mode at a certain point (450 worked, with my device default being 640), but it doesn't work with App Settings.
My suggestion is to change your entire DPI to some smaller number with textdroider and adjust apps to a larger size as needed. Kinda annoying, but should do the trick.

Scrolling lag on some Apps

Hello everyone,
I am really happy with my OnePlus 6t except for the scrolling experience. In some apps like Chrome, Instagram and Amazon it is simply off. It is either too sensitive or it simply lags. In Chrome for example if I scroll quickly my touch is not recognized and it doesn't scroll. Some Webpages work better and some worse.
Is there any way to fix the lag or at least unify the scrolling experience for all apps?
The device itself is brilliant but the scrolling lag drives me crazy.
Thank you in advance
Flash a custom kernel like RZ.

Hey,
I noticed this recently too. When I use Chrome, the only browser I use, it has a weird lag where it only scrolls down only a little bit. I installed Opera to test that out so we will see. I would change to a custom kernel but I have the McLaren edition and I don't want to lose warp charge.
So yes, I have experienced this as well, but only in Chrome so far! Maybe you could try a custom kernel.
Do you use "Deep optimizing" (Battery>Advanced Optimizing>Deep....)?
I did before and experienced serious lags occasionally - not always, but have no lag-problem at all after I turned this option off.

Just try a custom kernel and see if it works!!
