Slow gallery? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

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?

Yes. Very slow gallery on the GS4. Hopefully updates fix it. Embarrassing really.

Not sure if your willing to replace the stock gallery... but might try quickpic from the market... works really well.

I also experience the very slow response from clicking on the camera gallery. Seems to be an issue with touchwiz. My other friend also recommended quickpic, but we will lose the air gesture functionality... :crying:

I do use it. With a custom icon. But it's a shame that we have to. Don't ever read lag stories about the HTC One.

I'd rather have lag till an update than the One which I did have at one point. That phone isn't worth the 200 bucks on contract.

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.

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!

Home screen reloading issue?

Hi everyone. Home screen reloads/ restarts are a common issue on the international sgs3. Anyone here experiencing the same problem under heavy usage?
Not a thing after 2 days. Been trying games, apps and the whole nine yards most of the time without any reloads or restarts for almost anything.
Amazing, coming from an Atrix.

Hey OP this will NOT be an issue. This thing has 2GB of RAM...even with a ton of apps running I always have at least 800-900MB of RAM free at all times. Android will never have to restart the launcher so you'll never get homescreen redraws. The issue you're seeing is because of the less RAM and the TW launcher having to be killed in memory to free up memory and then reloaded.

Not true, the same issue happens on Sense phones like HOX because of available memory. Android will dump TW or Sense from RAM if it runs out of available memory so the app you are currently using can function fine. Then when you finish with that app, the launcher has to be reloaded to memory which is the refreshing you see.
It's a known/documented issue. More RAM solves the problem because the launcher (along with many other apps) remain in memory always since there's plenty of free memory for other apps.
This is triple confirmed from my experience using a Galaxy Nexus, HOX and now a US GS3. Even if I use Nova Launcher on all 3 if I really push them the GN and HOX will refresh Nova once in a while while the GS3 will never do that.

At a technical level in all computer systems (mobile or desktop, etc.) MORE RAM = LESS PAGING.

You are wrong. It has EVERYTHING to do with RAM. Hence the NA versions of this phone will not see the problem.
This is with tons of apps and services running. I've been watching it, it rarely drops lower than 800MB.

As of yet, even while running probably 10+ apps at once, I have yet to have had any have to reload anything when coming back to them even after a few hours.
It has to do with RAM and the memkill settings the company used on the device. The OneX has ridiculously aggressive settings, for example.
More ram just masks the real problem, poorly written software. 1gb should be more than enough on phones. If WIN7 can run on 1gb, a phone should have no issues. 2gb is just a marketing tool atm. One X is rarely using over 500mb ram on my device.

What you say may be true. The problem is definitely due to partly poor memory management by software. For example on my international SGS3 when I have about 150mb left and i open a memory heavy app it chose to kill off my home launcher or my browser (2 frequently accessed apps) instead of a bunch of inactive cached apps. ICS/ Touchwiz seems very agressive in auto caching unwanted apps but very reluctant to free up memory by quiting those cached apps.
Now we don't know if this is Samsungs fault or google ICS fault but several phones on ICS all have this regressed memory management issue from gingerbread. There is not much that can be done to improve the situation. So it looks like a 2GB phone is the best bet at the moment if you want proper multitasking experience on ICS.

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.

Is there a better text messaging App for the S4? The stock app with the creepy face icons need to go. Plus the general aesthetics are no good.

It's not ads per se - it's the notifications "look, we have new premium themes!" "Hey, you can't back up any more but you can use our cloud service!" "please buy into our ecosystem!". If it suits you, it's no big deal - but something that just does SMS/MMS and beats the Samsung/stock product is what I was looking for at this point. Chomp does that.
Not a criticism of their business model, I just didn't like it. I do understand it.

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.

I wonder if it lags even with a third party launcher like Nova Prime or Next?

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.

As well they should. I've always wanted a tablet but I would go into Best Buy and play around with them and just walk away saying 'nope' The specs were getting closer to what I wanted but with this, Samsung hit a home run. Pricey but you get what you pay for. :good:

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.

They probably would say that with any new device. I was at bestbuy the other day helping my sister buy a tablet and a couple of employees saw my Nvidia Shield (I was carrying it in its case) and were amazed by the device

Did you make this modification on the new Note 2014....? I ask because I can not find that setting, even after doing a search....?

Thank you... I forgot that I had to do that for the dev setting

Yes, I did take the update. I'm going to do a factory reset and see if that works.

Multi window for our Samsung Galaxy S

Developers, I want your attention towards the multi window feature which is available in some high end Samsung phones.
It would be an achievement if our Samsung Galaxy S gets the multi window.
I saw the below given link in which this feature has been ported successfully to Galaxy Grand Quattro
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544955
I think a 4" screen is probably too small for multi window, maybe I'm wrong.

Yes you are right

And the Galaxy s Advance?? Have the same screen and have multi window -.-
You mean someone has added it in a ROM?
That doesn't always mean it's a good idea lol

I have an S3 now (I had a Galaxy S before though), 4.8 inches of screen with Multiwindow. It may just be because I have big hands, but even on the S3, multiwindowing is barely comfortable. On the S, who knows how well that may work.
Also, that multiwindow needs Samsung JB 4.1.2.

Yeah, that's what I thought - a bit pointless..

Don't get me wrong though, it has its uses. Youtube surfing while Facebook/Messaging is pretty damn cool.

There is no point using it on a 4 inch device. I find using it on my s4 a bit hard at times. The S1 may not perform very well if this implementation is added to the phone.

I'm a true believer that it has its uses, just not on a 'small' screen.

But it is a cool feature that is much desired.
Whatsapp+MX player
xda+gallery
music+camera
maps+Internet
messaging+play store
tubemate+ uc browser
etc. and so on are the combinations which are welcome.
It would be a huge achievement for having this on our SGS rather than buying S4
Why not using OmniROM ? It has multiwindow feature though

I've tried Omni with split view on my tablet, it works, and looks great, just the way it functions is a bit iffy.

Wrong. In omni ROM if you go to the recent apps list and hold your finger on an app it let's you put it into split view.
I tried whatsapp with MX player. Phone goes a bit laggy, and if you click in the whatsapp pane then the video pauses. Personally I'd prefer to watch my videos in nice fullscreen landscape and check my messages by pulling the notification shade down.

I tried omni rom kitkat for i9000 and found no multiwindow. May it be in older versions.
Just sold my i9000 yesterday for Rs.6000 ($100)
Its in the one and only version there has been for i9000 up until now..
