Moving around the UI is fairly laggy - Xperia Z General

Just got mine in from handtec and straight away i can tell you that the general user performance is not as good as the Nexus 4. Transition animation is laggy about 60% of the time. What i mean is that the transition animation would stutter and drop frames unlike the N4 which is good about 95% of the time. Now i dont know if i haven't update or if something is wrong but my Build number is
10.1.A.1.350
I also tried using BOTH nova and stock and NO stamina mode is NOT on.

Bought mine from handtec too. Not experiencing any lag like you're. Have quite a few widgets running as well. Everything seems buttery smooth at present.

Sam here the launcher is laggy.

I don't use Chrome as it happens. I use Opera Mobile.

Don't have any lag as well. Switched from chrome to dolphin browser because chrome is sometimes slow as hell. But didn't notice any frame drops when I used it

Was laggy for like 5 seconds of the first ever boot then after that its fine no lag at all.

Could you guys post a screenshot of.your software info like this one.

Download spare parts from the market and set window and transition animations to fast.

It works (at least for my eyes). Even the slight lag I'd experienced seems to be gone, and my Gnote feels snappier than before. Could be subjective but I'm happy with it.
Thanks for the tip.

Many thanks mate.
Made a noticeable bump in speed for me. Excellent!
Thanks for the app, sometimes I just felt it's a shame that you have to download a third party app to boost up the phone or do anything normally which the every smartphones must have when it born. This is why everyone is rooting as stock rom sucks?
Thanks for the find robdee102.
Are there any other settings we can change to increase the speed of the phone?
The device doesnt get any faster, its deception. The length of the animated transition equals about the time needed for the application to load. Turning off the animation or setting it to happen faster only results in the animation being finished before the app's interface is fully loaded and the user looking at a blank black or white screen for a split second... Because the zoom or swipe effect happens faster one gets the feeling the device actually being faster; which in reality it isn't.
Thanks for listening. My 2ยข.

Good explanation, i like the look of it with faster animations. And yeah gives the impression of a quicker device. Better than slowwwww...

Yeah, there's DEFINATELY a difference, it feels more responsive, going through menus, etc...
I'm not denying it feels quicker. On the contrary. But because everyone around you suddenly walks slow doesnt make you walk any quicker ;-)
It was very noticeable on older devices with only 500ish MHz and 192MB of RAM, like the original G1/Dream/Sapphire and the likes. Those guys needed the extra time to launch an app and load the UI. Now with 1Gig, dedicated GPU and dualcore CPUs we are talking milliseconds. It really doesnt matter anymore...
A shame not all functions of Spareparts are supported though...

ICS Touch Screen Issues

I see this issue on ALL APPS and DIFFERENT LAUNCHERS.
I cant scroll properly when using quickpic or changing screens on lauchers only does it on ICS. Running STOCK. Does not do this when I go back to gingerbread but while on ics its annoying
Can't say that I've had this issue. The only time that my touch screen acts wonky is when the charger is plugged in, then it acts very odd sometimes.

its not lag that I am having. Its issues with say when swiping through pics in the gallery or quickpic where scrolling just sucks
I responded in another post by you (best GB rom or something) and asked why you wanted to change to GB.
ICS is very smooth swiping up down, left right, on any ICS rom. Not laggy at all. However I do have an issue with one app regarding sideway scrolling, but that is a UK specific app, and the dev knows about it. Quickpic scrolling is super smooth for me, and so is on Apex, Nova and my preferred choice, GoLauncher.

If I go slow everything is fine. But when going fast its very annoying, it doesnt happen on Gingerbread
Lick I can flick my finger fast sometimes and it will go SLOW as well
i hear you man..same issues here..thats why im back on the silky stock rooted gb.....same thing you say...it is smooth, but its glitchy when scrolling everywhere...noticed the same thing
one more thing, why couldnt they stick to the beautiful gb rotation animation in ics?in ics rotation is a bit choppy, you'll notice it particularly when exiting from apps from the landscape mode to the launcher( eg: mx player)...
so back on good old gb for now

Slow tabs menu

So when I'm in the stock browser (Poland Jelly Bean release) and click the tabs icons it always takes 1-2 secs to respond and actually show all open tabs.. Anyone else noticing this?
Also I saw a video if the Note II and it was buttery smooth. I know the Note II has a faster clocked processor but that shouldn't really matter in such a simple process right?

The stuttery Beast

Is it because of the JB update my S3 stutters just by pressing settings or just by pressing settingsmenu button. Everything just stutters a little bit. Opening the appdrawer, the phone stutters or is to slow for the animation.
I tried 0,5x animation, didnt get better.
What should i do?
Is the beast supposed to act like this?

It is most likely your device. My phone doesn't lag or stutter at all. It's smooth and fast. Even with Energy Saver Mode turned on it is still OK.
I use Touchwiz and all Samsung Apps are still installed.
Doesnt it lag when pressing menu on touchwiz? Any advice on what i should do?

As I said, NO LAG!
Unfortunately I have no concrete advice regarding menu key. One thing I found usefull though, is to clean autostart from unneeded apps.
In OP shoes i would full wipe and install stock firmware .
jjue
You can try the leaked rom 4.1.2. It works very well with siyah 1.8 kernel or any stock 4.1.1 roms.
Just remember to full wipe before and after flashing any roms. (Just a safety procedure.)
I was just soooo pissed off today.....i went to my providers centwr and saw they started selling SIII mini, i swear-it was faster than my S3 which is running on 4.1.2 leak (wanamlite 5) and 1.8 siyah with some minor tweaks from stweaks, seriously, im kind of dissapointed, some mid end device is faster than flagship-this isnt normal

I had some of those problems - some menus not as fast or smooth as the s3 mini in a store, the application manager crashing and stuff
- jb 4.1.1 stock unrooted - factory wipe after update from ics
So I went through and deleted all apps that I don't use, particularly apps with back ground processes like widgets (animated weather widget apps for example) and then after clearing ram as well, the application manager would work, so I went through and disabled Samsung stuff that looks unimportant
Now it all just blazes, so fast.

Okay i'll make a youtube video in 10 min.
I'm on BTU XXDLJ4. It's as smooth as what's shown in the video. No lags. Even with live wallpapers, my phone doesn't lag!
Got to say I never felt my phone being a slouch. But since I jumped from stock ics to the latest Samsung leak, my phone flies. Didn't really debloat anything even, lots of apps and very residual lag if any. Pretty happy with it. Just replaced kernel for dual boot purposes to try out whatever's out there.

First of all, you should have turned on a light in the room before recording!
Secondly, I do not see the big difference, sorry.
You did not do anything substabtial, you were just navigating in the Installed Apps menu in Settings... That's hardly a point of reference.
Good idea but, if you don't mind me saying, poorly executed and it does not prove anything. No offense.

I was not talking about the first video nor was I commenting about whether the SGS2 is faster than the S3 or not.
I was merely pointing out that your video does not prove anything.
