What i noticed is less ram, about 100-150MB less then before the update ?
Same apps, didnt changed anything, stock.

i have around 800~900 mb ram used on stock 4.3 generally
and i dont see any lag in mine
try clearing cache that might help

I had no lag in 4.2 it was buttery.. may be some 3/100 chance some lag.. but was enough smooth..
Yeah.. less ram now in 4.3 about 200-250mb but not smoother animations are grrrrr many times lol.. enabling 2d acceleration from developer option help only while scrolling xda app xD

I didnt touched any developer option
U can root and make it liquid smooth
I have disabled all tha apps in settings which i dont use (turn off)
Maybe this might help this stops many background apps

I have around 950mb now.
Used to be 1100-1150 before the update.
I clean chach every day, got task killer, and clean master.
Mostly usage is youtube, internet ( stock browser), and music player.
So its mostly likely that the update caused about 200mb less

The new update mk9 have less ram usage then previous now..

Samsung s4 android 4.3 does have a lot of lag time to time. after about 6 weeks I got sick of it and flashed the i9505G rom.
Used the Samsung s2 and S3 and they was no lag.
only thing I dont like about the i9505 rom is that it dont save pictures to the sd card.

Got a new update........
Fone seems more smooth now.
Anybody noticed this..???

Problems with different 2.3.4 firmwares

Hi guys.i have a problem with different firmware versions.i already tried kg2,kg5 and kg7.
On all firmwares i have a problem with the buddy contact pictures.from time to time they disappear and i have to configure them again.
On kg5 and kg7 the phone is slow and unstable.
Now i'm on kg2 it runs very fast and everything is ok except the buddy pics and my messages app sometimes crashes.so does anyone know which 2.3.4 version is tze best for a unbranded german s2?i flashed with odin with root and without and even made a normal wipe and a full wipe(internal storage).
Thanks for help
Regards

Im a huge noob when it comes to this. All i know is i'm on 2.3.4 and kg1 and everything is smooth and dandy. My contacts is fine too.
Is it a european firmware?

I have problem with buddy now too...kg2.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yes its really annoying with the buddy pics.actually i use a app named contact widget.its in the market 4 free.it doesn't look as pretty as the
Samsung app.i don't think it has something to do with the firmware cause i had it on all 2.3.4 versions

Please don't bump within 24 hours, I'm sure the mods would do something if they see this.
Anyway which versions are you using and did you do a full wipe of your phone after flashing?
I used all versions and had the probelms on all.actually i'm running kg2.yes i wiped everything 2 times but it didn't help

Just installed KG5 and its laggy when switching between homescreens with a few icons on them..Also i cant send a full sms when typing in Greek language, i get limited by the letters i can type. Another thing is i see OXA csc from the phone and XEU in Kies..I'm kind of annoyed with this lag when switching homescreens and i am wondering is it too difficult for this dual core and 1gig ram to have that kind of lags especially when using the latest firmware..?? How can many people say this is official firmware?????

My browser is laggy

When I'm try to go to heavy websites (like phonearena & gsmarena) my browser is just got laggy. I was searched all the videos about galaxy y, I saw the phones browsers just fine.
Sorry for my bad English.

Stop some heavy apps or clear your ram or reboot the device and try. Make sure u have enough space in internal memory
I was tried your advice and its not working (70 mb empty). And this problem started when I open my phone first time. It can be any problem in my phone?

Try dolphin browser HD. Its better than stock.
70mb free?
thats already loaded,
some apps might have been using the CPU,
get a good kernel like savie's, remove useless apps, get a good app killer, install v6 supercharger,
you can google on how to do those
Thanks!

Note 3 stock browser peformance

I seem to have an issue an I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing a similar problem or knows a fix. Basically the stock browser keeps hanging while loading Web pages. It seems to wait a bit longer than normal before loading pages more often than not. It happens both on wifi an hsdpa. I've noticed chrome doesn't have the issue at al. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Yeah I see what your saying..
Chrome has been working well for me.
Dream I have the same issue. Its working a bit more while loading page. Could swear that my s3 is lil faster on stock. Chrome is good.

Same goes with my s4 guys. Blame samsung fir this. Also, how is the tab opening;switching time on note 3?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Slightly off topic but how the heck do you do a rollover on a button? In any browser? I like the stock browser but I hate having to long press on a button then hit back on the soft key to get it to work! I'm no iFan but I do have to commend apple on getting that one thing right. Why does it take these android devs so long to figure this out lol.
I think the main issue is with android fragmentation, where as Apple only have their iDevices.. Gives them more control.
Op I get my note 3 later, will test it out and try a few solutions.. Hopefully there's a silly fix somewhere as I was planning on using stock browser as it's always performed well!! Have you tried dolphin? That's a quick snappy browser imo.

Played with he browser for the past half hour... Everything is fluid, fast, no delays... Smooth as butter. Very impressed!! Especially the new look for tab switching.
Are you still experiencing or has it sorted itself out?

Is there a way to save pages for offline reading? This feature was in Note 2's stock browser.
Also, is there a way to sync desktop browser bookmarks like on Chrome? Thx.

I've been playing with the stock browser for the last day or so since getting this phone. Super smooth and fast. No hiccups or laggy periods. And I also agree the new tab switching is nice compared to older versions I've used (I came from a note 1). The only gripe I have is that you can't seem to load new tabs in background. Now, every time I open a new tab, it loads upon top. Irritating, although I'll have to get used to it.

What about kinetic scrolling? Is it as responsive as note 2? Also I am experiencing this annoying issue when I click on a picture on facebook mobile website it is displayed in very small size. Chrome does not have this issue neither does the stock browser on note 2

Also something that anoyes me a lot in the note 3 is the auto fit pages.. It seems to have disappeared even in chrome. Really a bummer .. With this gorgeous screen you are left out with pages that you have to slide from side to side to be able to read a zoomed page :banghead:

Step away from the Stock Browser would be my suggestion. Ive been using Chrome and havent had any issues. There are other browsers that have been tested and proved great performance

Problems with apps on 4.4.2

Does anyone has problems with their apps after updating to 4.4.2? My GTA:SA and respawnables stopped working and force closes when I open it up. It doesn't happen to android 4.3 tho. Was wondering is it the app or firmware problem.

GTA is a known issue, couple of people have posted about it so far, version 1.2 or 1.3 works (last before current) - App developers need time to update I guess, happens frequently with Android.
