I am not so much of a noob but just don't really know where to put this. Srry for any inconvenience in advance.
The problem is that I have a GT-I9505. Tried to root it a while ago but only thing I got was a flagged binary. ( gonna fix that btw soon ) But since KitKat and some updates from all of my apps, my phone is lagging. It waits several seconds to open any app. If I am typing the letters appear about 3 seconds after I types them. This goes espescially for Whatsapp. And no I don't use beta, just the latest version.
I would understand this happening to me because my phone is slightly altered. But my girlfriend has exactly the same problem but the phone is untouched.
So my question is: Has anyone experienced the same problem of lagging? And if so is there anything I can do about it except for a factory reset?
grtz in advance Maverick ®
ps the lagging gets worse when I load the battery. Either on normal power or hooked up to my laptop of pc

Tnx 4 the reply, I guess it is worth the trying although I find it curious that both phones experience those symptoms after the kitkat update touched or untouched.. But I will keep it in mind tnx again

What you could do first is to backup and then a factory reset. Then its easier to rule out some software problem.

^This. You can also try updating to the latest firmware 4.4.2 (it has 2 updates: the one updating to 4.4.2 and the other one for performance and stability). I noticed that I was lagging like crazy when I was still on 4.3, but when I updated to 4.4.2, the lag just went away.

I am on 4.4.2. Doing a factory reset now so fingers crossed. Also noticed that the lag is strongest in WhatsApp

Hi I received my s4 today but as soon as the screen goes black from none use it just reboots, if I use it its fine but as soon as I put it down for 30 seconds and the screen goes black it reboots. Is it a setting I'm missing or a faulty phone, sorry for the noob question but I'm along time apple user thanks for any help.
At first glance, it sounds like a defective phone that should be returned promptly. However, we should make sure that you are sure you're doing things right. You're not holding the power button down at all, correct? (just pressing it?) And you're saying that after it sleeps, it simply reboots, or it reboots when you try to wake it up?
First try messing with the screen timeout/sleep settings.. I think the default is 2 minutes anyway, so I don't see why it would reset after 30sec.
Next, the battery is charged, right?
Next, try pulling the battery and putting it back in.
Next, try a data format / factory reset. If you return the phone, you'll be forced to do this anyway, so it's worth a shot.
After that, you've got me. Anyone else?

Thanks I have tried all the above but it's still the same, I've had to phone for a replacement but due to limited stock I've got to wait three weeks. Is there any way I can download the original firmware and reflash it.

Yeah, that doesn't sound good and certainly isn't the user experience you are looking for in a brand new flagship phone you dropped a pretty penny on. You could try bringing it into the retail store purchased and see if they can do a swap there. If there are more in stock it shouldn't be an issue. I assume you had it pre-ordered online

Samsung has just released the German version of the Firmware (GT-I9505) for kies so hopefully the US AT&T (i337) will be released soon. Check SamMobile's site for firmware updates and to see if they available via kies yet.
Have you tried just doing a factory data reset? You can do it through settings or even stock Samsung recovery I think.
Hi. Since 27th i have the same problem. The phone reboots sporadic. After factoryreset everything ok but tonight the same problem occured again.

If you are not rooted then I would first look at what you may have installed since you got the phone. If you have not installed anything, have not rooted, have not frozen any apps, etc. then I would get in line for a replacement asap.

Do a factory reset. If that doesn't fix it, hope you have a warranty cause it sounds faulty.

Hi there mates. Same issue with my wife S4 mini. It is i9190, not rooted. It is very ok but from time to time is powering off by itself.
Don't know what to do to solve this one.... any ideas?
Hey Guys,
I'm an owner of a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 rooted, my problem is that air gesture and air view (using hand) stop working after some time of usage, and then I should reboot to make them work again, really strange, I used the command *0*# to see if the sensor is working and it was working.
Anyone has any idea to fix it?
Thanks

I'm not sure if some apps may interfere with the system service. That may cause the problem.
You can try one of the following:
- Uninstall some apps that you have installed recently, or that you suspect.
- Factory reset.
- Update to the newer firmware for your device.

Thanks for the reply.
I think it's a root app that is causing this but I have so many and I can't uninstall them because I won't be able to know which app is behind this + it takes many hours for air gesture to stop working so I guess I'll have to wait for the 4.4.4 update and see if anything would change.
Hey all,
Feel free to use this thread to discuss the recent V10m-OCT-14 Software Update for the G3. I have just received it on my International D855 Model.
Listed enhancements are:
- Apps
This update is 180MB if coming from the other latest update, v10l. You can download this update by going to your Update Center, Software Update. Or, your G3 might have already downloaded it OTA.
Personally, I find a bit more battery life, and more responsiveness coming from v10l, feel free to share your individual experiences with this update here!
Battery life is better than 10L, but it's only one day used. Will see how is in the next few days
Just installed it and rooted it with PD...works fine at the moment, downloading music from spotify and such, let's see how it behaves in a few days time. V10L still had the noises while charging...expecting 10m to have the same issue.
Any KDZ File?
Thank's

A few hours of usage 10M seems on par with 10L, same performance noting special. Guess we will have to see, the newer kernel build date suggests that some tweaks and updates are present and we are always grateful for tweaks

:good: Cool. I can't wait OTA.
@ Mr Bo
Thank's , flash in progress.
Does this update resolves the "Hissing and buzzing sound with headset/AUX" issue ?
Still don't see the M for my IMEI / Region (India) yet. Waiting !
Hissing noise is likely to be hardware so don't hold your breath for a software fix. They obviously didn't adequately shield headphone socket from the charging/battery.
Blimey, I only just got around to flashing v10L.
Is there a way to install the OTA update for someone who has TWRP recovery installed without getting stuck inn the recovery on reboot ? Fortunately, there is a fix to get out of the recovery but the OTA doesn't install when returning back to system.

I can cancel this issue with some tricks (USB or call trick). The G2 did have this issue with kk4.4.2 ant it was resolved with the 4.4.4. So i m still waiting an update or an aosp rom.

Tried this?
That's how I install L. Worked fine, just lost root (which TWRP fixed), DPI was changed back to stock (I fixed that) and it reinstalled a little bloatware (McAfee) which Titanium took care of.
That is, of course, if you can get the KDZ.
I can't see any serious difference after weeks of using ".i" version... always flashing with CSE option.
phone works great, very smooth, battery life for around 5-6h of screen awake
Hi everyone,
Since my GT-I9505 got the Lollipop update a few months ago, turning on the wifi is taking around 50 seconds. Connection works normally but turning on the device itself is a really slow process.
I was hoping that the latest OTA update would fix this little issue but nothing changed.
I did some research but couldn't find anything to solve it, even though I found some people who's got the same problem.
Can anyone help me?
I'm running stock rom, version I9505VJUHOF2.
Thanks in advance!

Hmmmm mines re-rooted after flashing this new firmware??
Flashed RC-SuperSU-c2.73-20160517124156.zip
I have now flashed this new firmware N915FYXXU1DPI3, it too early to tell if it resolves any of the issues of the previous firmware....
What I can tell you at the moment is that the phone seems to be getting hot, but not sure if this is because the ROM is settling down....
Marshmallow update has been an absolute disaster....
I hope this update fixes things. ...
Okay been running this new update since yesterday, no reboots. It's still not fast and is still laggy.... Not good... My note 2 knocks it into a cocked hat for usability...
Sent from my SM-N915FY using XDA-Developers mobile app
I still have soft reboots... albeit less frequently

Okay since my last post and the new firmware has settled down it still does the same thing, random soft reboots, I also have an intermittent problem with bluetooth, it seems to loose where it's up to and then speeds the song up to catch up with what I think is the time stamp....also when using the camera app sometimes whe taking a photo the phone shuts down and I have to pull the battery to restart it.
Same problems....I am at the point of selling this phone now as it becoming unusable for me.
Whats also more annoying is recently I flashed my NOTE2 with a new Rom and my S4 with Nugget, both are way more responsive then the Note Edge
Feeling disillusioned...

I see your point, but since I have returned to 5.1.1 I am really happy with this phone. And with my old Note 10.1 LTE it was the same: No support, no updates, and after flashing a custom rom it is again my dayly driver for games, work and movies. Love the Note family although Samsung really works hard on destroiing their reputation on it. So, I will stay with my note and 5.1.1.
Thnx for testing!
