Hello! I've bought 3 days ago the note 3 and the first thing I noticed is that everywhere in the OS i experience (I think this is called..) stuttering! Everywhere except video playing through build in video player I see stuttering. In browser, games, apps, scrolling and worse of all Youtube! The video is like skipping frames. The sound is good but the video is not at all smooth! I enabled developer tools and enabled the setting to show me gpu usage in bars. When I experience statturing the usage of the gpu instantaneously is full and then back to normal.I've tried reseting phone removing my sd card and when the phone was only with the factory installed apps I updated youtube app and played a video and again the same even in non HD videos.... >:-X I've read somewhere to enable gpu accelaration in 2d apps neither this worked.. I've also noticed that in antutu benchmark. When the benchmark was in 3d test although the fps was around 40-60fps the image was not smooth at all! IT IS DRIVING ME NUTS! Does anyone else have the same problem with me? It is something that the average user want bother him too much and he can live with it but for me is the worst thing! I paid 750euros for the device and I want it to run smoothly at least the most of the times..! Before this device I had the note 2 and I didn't have ANY of these problems! I mean not even 1 of them! If this is not something I did wrong and it is samsung problem then it is anacceptable! What can I do?
you got a problem i would take it back cause mine is fine.
My Note3 is silky smooth fast even with high bit rate high definition video. You must have a fault and I would get it exchanged ASAP.

Definitely something wrong there. My Mega 6.3 didn't suffer from stuttering but Note 3 still feels super fast after that.
Eh eh
i love this HUGE Problematic posts that someone with zero posts apperas in android forums suddenly after sammy releases... really fun & great posts i love them
Thank you
Thank you all very much for all the responses! I called samsung and they told me that they don't know something about this and they will search for the issue and call me back after 3 business days.....

When I'm playing video from the built in player or MX Player is runs smooth all the time. Youtube app has the real problem! When you are playing from youtube runs smooth on you phone?

I watch YouTube videos all the time, no issues whatsoever. Try clearing cache/reinstalling youtube etc..
To OP: Either you have some really rogue app running in the background, or your phone is defective. I have none of these issues on my Note3 and I've had it since 25th of September.
Same issues here just did a system reset and will bring it back tomorrow if still the same. Very disappointed ofcourse!

I guess that my phone is defective. As I said in previous post I've reset the phone. I've cleaned the cache and reinstall it bebore reseting it. But the problem is not only on youtube. It is in almost all apps excluding build in video player. Now if I have to give it back and get a new one should I go to Samsung service or the store I've bought it? And one question more. If the phone is from a telephone company is there a chance the OS could be damaged from them. Are they touching the software before get it to the market? Because I've noticed that after every reset the first time I open Safari the start page is Vodafone. I've bought it without contract. Is there any possibility that all these happens for this reason?
Thank you all!
They finally changed my phone! At first they told me that this is a minor issue and they don't know if they could change the device for this...... :laugh: Hahahaha in their dreams...........! I went to they store manager and I make him take my device and compare it with the store's demo device.. Finally he gave me a new one.. :victory: And it's working perfectly!!!! I really love it! I was very dissapointed at first with the other device because I was thinking that maybe that's how the phone is or I should be waiting for an update to fix their issue... :silly: Thank you all for your responses! You were very helpful! I'm very happy to belong in your forum community and from now on I will be very happy to help where ever I know my help!

Whoever can show their lag on the clip. This would help me and others. I'm now curious since I've been on my Nexus 4 with 4.2.2 for a while now that I'm so used to lag that I dont even notice it.

Here is mine. The lag is not bad, but pretty much everywhere. Obviously an issue with 4.2.2. I don't know. When it doesn't lag the phone is super smooth. I hope they fix this soon.
Samsung obviously didn't optimize their software to run properly on 4.2.2. Makes me miss how fluid the UI was on the Note 2.
Not the best quality, but still good enough to see.

Why would you clear your ram...
With 2 gb theres no need to. Plus its fluid when you leave it alone. Thats like using a task manager from the play store.

For tests like this, it's best to clear ram so you're starting with an empty plate. Just like if you were benchmarking, running browser speed tests, etc.

I dont see a whole lot of lag in that video.
I wouldn't say it looks laggy. It's more sluggish. But its pretty minor.
It's not as fluid as I want it to be. I might get annoyed.
EDIT:
I heard if you turn off all those gimikey features. IE eye detections ect. it should fix the lag a bit.
Since that video I've performed a factory reset. Gonna do another video soon.

Can you do one after the reset. And another one with ALL the gimick features off? Thanks.
Noticed exactly the same on my mates gs3 - it was unusable, up to 3 seconds till home launcher and frequent redraws.
Samsung completely kills androids performance, and for that price and hardware its a shame.
Thats why many people prefer apple - my iPod Touch with 200 apps still runned better than my mates gs3 for almost the double price with 50 apps. Android is getting very, very slow after some use. Calls, sms, apps, after every month you'll loose lets say 10% of performance, related to how you use your phone, more performance loss in the beginning, less after some use.
And touchwiz makes everything sloooww :/
You only notice, when you install 300 apps on iPhone and gs4. Gs4 will lag, I can gurantee.
Especially 4.2.2 was a kind of downgrade, lots things are "tasty" things, you may like or not.
IF Google could bring beak Gingerbreads performance and ram managment + project butter and some new features on android 5.0, I would marry them
I just did this video about 10 minutes ago and would like to get some input on it. I will try to do when in more depth video when I have time.

Well based on the polls. They said the korean one has lag but it's minimal. and it appears to be quite minimal on your phone. so it's "normal".
I'm watching a video side by side with my Note 2 and it looks like the Note 3 stutters when playing back the same video. Nothing crazy but it's there. I mean there's stuttering in the browser. Now there's stuttering in Youtube. Videos my freaking 3 year old hacked touch pad can play smoothly. What the hell is going on here?
I can't be the only one experiencing this. I'm starting to regret upgrading to the Note 3. My only hope is a custom rom comes along and solves all this crap.
No issues with me, and I watch two videos at a time. I'm using a T-Mobile n3.

The same thing is happening to me but only when watching the Hulu plus app. I switch it to med quality, everything plays smooth. But only in High quality its unwatchable. It might be the app itself.

I too am having these issues. Minor stuttering on Youtube App and Hulu Plus app on high settings Major Stuttering. I guess I'm trying to determine if this is a software/app issue or a hardware issue. I also tried a Movie Trailers app with HD Trailers. I think it was called Cine Movie Trailers, and it had minor stuttering like the youtube app. If someone can try these apps specially the Hulu Plus app which seems to have the biggest problem, it would be greatly appreciated. Wan to make sure before I request an exchange.
Thanks!
It could be smart pause, try disabling it.

Dont bother with an exchange. It has to be a software issue because our devices are more than capable of playing videos. Besides im on my second exchange and the same stuttering happens in both apps

I have this issue on my tmobile Note 3. I first noticed it in the Hulu Plus app whenever I set the quality to high. Second time I noticed it was streaming video through video players such as mx video and the stock video player. This would happen with standard avi videos as well as 720, 1080 videos. Haven't tested youtube though.
Hello everyone!
Update: So I went to my local AT&T store to check these issues on the demo unit and installed the Hulu Plus app and the playback is exactly the same that we're experiencing. On the YouTube app though, the playback was smooth as butter and what I noticed was the YouTube app on the demo unit had the old YouTube logo on it's icon. So when I got home I uninstalled the youtube app updates and returned it to it's factory installed state. That resolved the YouTube problem!!
As for the Hulu Plus app, I contacted Hulu and went through their troubleshooting steps with no success and then answered some questions about my device. The representative then stated that the data was passed on to their mobile developers. So I'll keep anyone updated if that yields some results. If you're having these issues with Hulu Plus, I encourage you to notify it to hulu customer support on their web page. They gave me a 2 week credit on my subscription for my inconvenience.
Hope this gets resolved soon.

Yeah, I found that odd also. But I think the ads play at a lower picture quality. That's what I think anyways. I'm not sure what's happening there
Hi everyone,
Just to let you guys know that Hulu sent me an email saying that they "put a fix in place on their side of things" and instructed me to shut down my device for 60 seconds and turn it on and play a video. So I did and videos seem to be playing smooth. No more stuttering! The app seems to have lost the option to choose video quality instead it chooses it automatically depending on your connection speed. Video quality is very good though!

So have you tried to uninstall Apex to see if the stuttering in YouTube went away? I have Nova installed and can't remember if I tried the youtube app while I still had Touchwiz on because I installed Nova almost right away.
I'm going to try this tomorrow I guess just to say I tried it because you never know. Though I doubt it because I also have stuttering in scrolling on almost any browser and that I definitely checked while I was still fully stock, no Nova and no root.
I'm getting some pretty significant stuttering on YouTube when playing hd videos. It couldn't be my wifi because hd 1080p movies on Netflix play smoothly.

Well apparently it's the YouTube app...just read the comments on Google play for this device. =/ it's a shame, I'm starting to realize more and more the software hasn't caught up with the hardware in this beast.
None of you watch videos on YouTube??
I've been using the stock browser for YouTube.... not full HD results but at least it plays without jittering and pausing to buffer all the damn time... buffer stays way out ahead of video and plays like a champ.
Just a temporary solution until fixes for apps start coming around...

Same. I can confirm that YT through the browser is very smooth, but like you said it's not really HD, just "HQ", which is so damn stupid. Why can't they figure out a way to enable HD through the browser?
Just an FYI. I was having the same issue as you. I un-installed all of the updates for the YouTube app, and set it to not auto update.
Did this a week ago and its been running perfect ever since.
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
I tried that but for some reason hd videos still stutter for me. Ugh.
I use the Youtube app all the time, it never buffers. Been awhile since I've had a device like that. I'm wondering if this phone has MIMO.
My $600 Sony Tablet buffers in the same spot.
You bring up an excellent post!
When I got my note 3 for $700 no contract a month ago, I was on the verge of returning it the very next day because no matter which youtube app version in the store I was using, it would stutter and drop frames but not all the time, just every so seconds it would drop frames or stutter like. It drove me nuts because this beast of a phone should not hiccup on youtube videos 1080p or not. My iPad 3 doesn't even have this problem at all.
I also installed flash using the digital cookies version of the AOSP browser and you won't believe it but full screen youtube videos do not stutter or drop frames!! This is compared to the stock youtube app!
So I have to say it has to be typical android BS where the app is just not optimized or buggy as F as usual. Netflix doesn't seem to drop frames like the youtube app - but watching anything .mp4 online streamed will do this occasional frame drop "lag" issue. Really pathetic if you ask me how this andreno 330 gpu can't handle a youtube video!
Using even the MX Player app (using SW, HW, HW+ accelerations), it would still drop frames/stutter! Unbelievable. So it has to be something to do with this phone's hardware drivers. God knows how long it will take samsuck to fix this or even acknowledge this. Google ain't gonna touch it because they are focused on kitkat BS which I don't give a damn about considering it has nothing compared to Samsung's S-Pen and all the galaxy note features.
I had the same problem but cleared cache partition through recovery and don't have the issue anymore. Maybe you can try that

Nope - deleting/formatting the cache partition does nothing. A full wipe does nothing either. Even removing the updates and restoring stock youtube will help ALOT but the drop frames/stuttering is still present in the youtube app. Go load up some VEVO music videos in HD and you'll see what I mean. Android sucks; loaded up the same videos with the same ads on an iPad(3)/(4) and ZERO stuttering/dropping frames. Android just can't do anything smoothly!
I have to agree with you. I can say it's DEF not the phone itself - the hardware is godly. It's ****ty android and/or the YT app simply isn't optimized yet for this brand new hardware.
The absolute concrete evidence came for me when I streamed a full 1080p VERY VERY high bitrate movie from my computer with ES file explorer (best file explorer btw). I purposely picked the movie with the highest bitrate, the dark knight, in my case. The video played smooth as melted butter.
Just to be sure, I also moved the file to my phone, because with streaming it can be argued that the host machine, my computer in this case, does all the grunt work. It still played like butter.
So this is just another classic case of software lagging behind the hardware...Google is notorious for this.

Well I tried it and I still have absolutely no lag or stuttering when I did the same video that I had issues with before, in my house again with my slow a$$ Internet (65mbps) and no problems since I cleared my partition cache through recovery. Sorry that it hasn't worked for you, but it did an amazing job for me because I had exactly the issues you had. Couldn't watch one video completely through.

I've had this phone before the Oreo update. Antutu V6 showed super smooth graphics... that apparently don't translate into real-world usage.
For this example I'll talk about Real Racing 3, but it goes for any game.
On Nougat it would have this bug where it would run at about 40fps, then when I paused and resumed the race, it would be at a smooth 60fps for about 2 seconds. Thought the Oreo update would allow 60fps all the time like I know it should do.
I downloaded Real Racing 3 again after months, and now on default settings, at 1080p, I get about 15-25fps constantly. Pausing and resuming doesn't help any more.
So this game and many others that I used to love and play at a decent framerate on my previous phone, which had adreno 330 graphics, look almost unplayably horrid. Even skips frames on games like Color Switch which runs without a hitch on my brother's Moto C.
It's seriously worse than I would expect even a $200 device to be! And this phone cost $650 at release?!
Anyone else had these issues? Has anyone solved this for themselves?
Thanks.
I was having the same issue.If you have updated by OTA then flash the rom again using LGUP & do a factory reset using keys.I was getting heavy lag on MCVS,PUBG & heat issue almost same as yours.My issue is gone now.Also don't forget to turn off break time on Oreo in game center.
Look how smooth it runs now while screen recorder is on at 2k.

Today I found something interesting happened to my phone it was running buttery smooth like it should be (821), and most of all the game i play everyday wasnt lagging at all, PUBG
Solution: DO NOT USE SMART CLEANING app or any other kind of it, your phone will start running smooth in next 3 4 days or maybe less.
Try this and share me your experiences.
Comment to let me know you're trying this.
Thanks. I'll give it a try and see if it makes a difference, because the amount of lag I experience while playing Cytus II is unbearably bad and makes the game nearly unplayable.
So dont use anything at all and itll work smooth? ok ill try that
Hi
Are you referring to the Smart Doctor build in app?
Did you disable or uninstall it?
It's been 3 days and I've reached a verdict. Doing as the OP said actually made games run better. By that, I mean I disabled Smart Cleaning via LG Package Disabler and deleted Google Files Go.
I'm not kidding about this helping. Cytus II is playable now at full 1440p 60fps, with very few lagspikes. Other games I've played, like Alto's Odyssey, run somewhat better as well.
Go try it out yourself, it may help a lot!

After a factory reset a couple days ago the antutu graphics benchmark got noticeably choppier, especially the "marooned" scene which was previously completely fluid. That was a disappointment since that was one of the reasons for going through that process! I've now removed Google files go and I will see if that makes a difference, I hope it does. If so, thank you in advance.
Btw I think you meant "1440p" (QHD) not "2160p", that's 4k! ?

Yeah, that's right. Thanks for pointing that out!
This is serious guys, I deleted Smart Cleaning by ADB and my gaming experience increase magically, Shadowgun Legends can run quite good with Ultra high 60fps setting, it couldn't do that before. Unbelievable
PS: Tested only with latest Android 7.0
I have zero lag and i use smart doctor every other day.

Well, two weeks from when i see this thread and i stop using SmartDoctor / SmartCleaning app, just to say, this guy is right, using SmartDoctor / SmartCleaning app will (somehow, and i dont know how and why) make you phone laggy and in my tests if i open it like between 2 or 3 days and make a clean all UI and the app frezzes and i need to wait almost 1 minute to phone get out of the app and all be OK again.
So, my test really gives reason to this guy and i will delete the app from the phone, and i recomend all people with rooted G6 to do the same and use CCleaner instead to clean cache from apps and so on...
to the guy who discover the guilty of the lag: i cant pay you a beer, but you will be my hero forever.
Not working for me unfortunately... Still quite a bit of lag playing heavier games like csr2, Rr3 (practically unplayable), hungry shark world ?
I've had the phone since September last year and I don't think I've used it for more than 10 times. It lags anyway. Lowering the resolution does wonders, but it has some bugs that I don't like so I've switched back to lag.

Today I found something interesting happened to my phone it was running buttery smooth like it should be (821), and most of all the game i play everyday wasnt lagging at all, PUBG
Solution: DO NOT USE SMART CLEANING app or any other kind of it, your phone will start running smooth in next 3 4 days or maybe less.
Try this and share me your experiences.
Comment to let me know you're trying this.

If you are rooted, I highly recommend installing the new Adreno 530 driver, there is a decent improvement in games and definitely in Antutu...
does this stil work as of now?
This reads like bull****. What is "smart cleaning"? Is it supposed to be an app? The instructions are super unclear.
Smart Doctor cannot be disabled either. You can just disable it running in the background.
