s5 not scrolling smoothly - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so i have this brand new s5 and the scrolling is not smooth at all. I have tried all the fixes and nothing on this s5 scrolls smoothly.
I have done some reading, and a custom ROM should fix it. Which ROM is stable ? and which ROM should I go for ?

I have no problem installing your ROM if someone in Toronto , Canada can do it for me.

Make sure screen output is disabled in power saving mode settings.

Maybe but I wouldn't wait. Root and install a custom kernel and/or rom to smooth it out. I did and made a difference because the lag was just too annoying.
figures i just took back my white s4 cause the data would take mad long to pop on after i shut wifi off that phone was so smooth they gave me a new s4 i picked black this time but this one is deff a lil laggy wish i just stayed with the white.. i screwed my self i paid restock fee and had to get a new screen protector.. dude was mad in the store he wanted me to wait 2 days so they could order me a s4.. i wanted one that day.. he was all mad? said it looks bad on him.. i didnt undrstand that at all
Lag? Did you try turning off s voice activation from home button? That's the only time I noticed a hint of slowness.

Like its lag sometimes when using keyboard, When opening apps, The gallery, taking pictures. It's just really laggy every now and then and this is my second black S4 so I hope they fix it asap

I've never had any lag at all. This thing was smoother than my Evo Lte with Viper rom out of the box.

honestly when I read this I thought "what lag?" I never had any lag issues before. Granted, I'm picky and a tuning junkie so I implemented ktoonsez's kernel with frandom support and crossbreeder anyway. The result? My phone is LIQUID smooth.
I'm not sure if I wanna root this or not yet

Go to developer options and turn off window & transition animation and animator duration. ....

ForceRom with Ktoonz kernel has my phone running smooth as butter. Not to mention my performance and battery life has been off the charts with it! See below.

Funny I was on stock and had no lag what so ever and now that im rooted and running custom rom im getting lag quite often.

Photo Lag?

Hi
Does anyone have the problem of extreme choppyness and lag when zooming into a photo in the gallery and panning around?
It also seems to happen in quickpic too, and it's very strange indeed. Also quite embaressing when showing your mates a photo and its lagging like hell.
This isn't a problem on the HTC Evo 3d and One S, and tbh any other recent phone I've had. Seems to be Samsung specific and it has persisted on different roms. I'm currently stock 4.1.2 rooted.
Any suggestions? It seems ridiculous how Samsung have not corrected this.

Do you by any chance turn on power saving mode?

I have the same, it isnt lag while wifi or 3g is off that much , a bug i think

Just seems to be a bug. Do you not have this problem? Power saver mode is on on my HTC One S and it's smooth as butter when panning a photo.

Tick force gpu rendering in developer settings, it's a quick fix at least.

Very strange then. I have had it from the beginning.
I'm on the LTE version though
Sent from my Galaxy Note II LTE using Tapatalk
Yes I have this too.
While my nexus 7 with the crappy Tegra SoC doesn't lag at all when viewing photos. Makes me think it's only samsung's terrible rom optimization/drivers...
Does AOSP/CM roms have this issue as well?
Yes it lags for me also. I have 2000-3000 photos in gallery and it lags
I'm on stock 4.1.2 with root, and im using 64gb SanDisk ultra.

Man, are you sure that Samsung is responsible for everything you did on your rooted phone? Where's your responsibility?
I'm still sitting on 4.1.1 (stock) and everything is ok, no lag (except when go into Widgets and when you clean your RAM).

Yeah I am sure it is Samsung/the rom. I've done nothing much at all on my rooted phone and this also occurs after a fresh non rooted wipe and also on the 4.1.1 rom. Rooted or unrooted, and fresh from a wipe.
This does not happen on my HTC ONE S or any other HTC Android phone I have had. Rooted or unrooted. The gallery app in general is laggy as hell too but I'll put that down to how many photos I have.
The lag I'm refering to is related to when you pan around a zoomed photo which was taken with the phone camera. And this also applies to non-stock gallery apps.
Will not be taking any responsibility here whatsoever and fully lay the blame at Samsung's door.

Want to make use of 60in Samsung Smart TV

Well it seems as though you cannot screen mirror with a rooted device. What I am looking to do is have movies play from my phone on my Samsung smart TV. I'd rather not get the cable if possible. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks in advance

This is kind of a workaround but it should work. If you have a computer next to the TV or a laptop hook up a HDMI cable from the CPU to the TV. Use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awindinc.sphone2tv

Wow really? I wonder what allows you and I cant get it to work. I am running sacs rom. Never tried to do it on stock.

Not sure. Stock MF9 with KT's latest kernel.
What does it do when you try? Is the option even available? Might be some framework changes preventing it.

Random reboots - GT-I9505, Help`?

Hi, i've got my hands on a Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 running 4.2.2 MH6. Im updating it at the moment. but it reboots atleast 2 to 3 times a day. for no reason? it's not modded but AVG is installed. could that be the problem?
Can you make screenshots about your app launcher and sys info? Looks like some strange apps led to that. Or you can try to flash a Perseus kernel(or Adam,up to u).

Updated it to 4.3 but the problems are still there, it's under warranty. i noticed now that there was another problem. Network signal goes off then after some seconds it reboots as well. Should i turn it in again? it was just in for screen replacement! problems started after the screen was replaced! no problems before! it's a freind of mine that has this phone! and no he isn't going to mod his phone.
Anyone?

As already mentioned in other threads it's most likely that's the battery that needs to be changed due to a series of bad batteries that was shipped with the galaxy S4.
try it out with another battery and your problem will be solved

Try to change your battery and see whether it's still overheats.
I wanted to do that really, but i wanted someone else to tell me so i would not be a wierdo, you really think that would work?

I have 2 batteries. One gave me overheats, even though the battery itself is not bulged.
One totally no issues at all.
Same phone, same ROM, same setup, same etc.
You can give it a try. But then again, I might be wrong.
Technical issues can arises from a lot of factors anyway.
I will try, thank you so much for your reply

Try the old modem, the one you didn't have any issues. Otherwise it's samsung's crappy update.
Can i go back to that modem?? No risk?? I changed the csc, changed the sim, changed the carrier, changed 3 batteries... still blowing fire, 80c om the cpu... many times when i use my data plan
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
The only risk is signal issues.
So because of the modem i have the heating problems??

It may also the update.
What?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
I may also be related to the lollipop update. Since you did mention that it didn't happen on kitkat. It only started happening since moving to lollipop. So it may also be the update. Go back to kitkat or change to a custom rom and see if it helps.
I tried all, just all custom roms with lolli
