Hello here,
very strange thing happened tonight:
in the morning I have found that my Android Dev Phone 1 (updated to Android 1.5/Cupcake few days ago) has downloaded and installed at least 20 (rather more) applications! Most ot them were alreday installed on the phone, so they were now either upgraded or - in most cases - just updated = installed once again. Some of them I have just tried long time ago (back in December/January) and then removed them. Tonight they were downloaded and installed once again.
It looks like the phone, for some strange reason, has tried to download and (re)install all applications which were ever installed.
The whole download+insallation process was still ongoing: there were 2 active downloads and also a warning about running out of memory space. I have cancelled these two downloads.
NetCounter says that around 20 MB of data were downloaded in the night.
aTrackDog has lost all info about installed applications: they are (74 pcs) all now marked as freshly installed and their version numbers aren't verified.
Yesterday I did really nothing special: just checked my emails, visited some web pages, and went to bed. The phone was "sleeping" too (I thought).
Any idea what could be the reason for this strange behaviour?
ADDITION: I have found out that OLD versions of those applications were installed tonight, so most of the already installed programs were actually DOWNGRADED tonight!
Now I have 13 applications with "Update available" under "My downloads" in the Market. 8 or 9 of them I had tried several weeks or months ago and then uninstalled. Now I've got these old versions again. Remaining 4 or 5 were downgraded.

Well... out of the 264 apps that I have on my G1 only about 8 said that there was an update available. Everything else works and acts the same. Of those 8 that had an update available Weatherbug was one of them and they added the option to change the text color in the status bar (which is definitly a new feature) thus it was an actual update. So are you suggesting that the 256 apps were instantly downgraded to a earlier version? Could you imagine how much broadband that would require assuming that each one is at LEAST 100kb and could be at the most 6mb in size? Just 100kb x 264 apps =26400kb (26 MB) minimum. I don't think my G1 used that much without my knowledge.
I just think that the majority of your apps had an update.
I'm only suggesting that *MY* (not every, indeed) ADP1 without my knowledge has re-downloaded and re-installed most of the applications I've ever used before. Some of them were installed again (after they were removed long time ago), same downgraded. One of these downgraded applications had the last update on January 15th, so tonight I've got a version which is at least 110 days old!
it has happed to me twice the past couple of nights, it downloads and installs like 20 or 25 apps that i had previously uninstalled like 3 days before. very strange, it didnt happened last night...so i have no clue as to why...i havent seen a reason or solution...
i just rooted and installed jf1.5 last saturday, maybe that had something to do with it
Thank you for the confirmation!
Yes, I also think that this is some strange bug of v1.5.
I use my ADP1 since December and got this problem for the first time yesterday, few days after cupcake upgrade.
What the f$%&#?!....
I went to luch one hour ago and when I came back my ADP1 has already downloaded and installed 10 applications, two installations were failed (because of low memory) and 6 further downloads were ongoing. Again over 20 MB of traffic used without my permission within short time, and again several old applications re-installed and few others downgraded.
It must be a serious bug!!
This has happened to me multiple times in the past few days (only had the G1 about a week), ever since I rooted (though I rooted within a day or two, so that might not mean anything).
I've run JF RC33, plus all the Cupcake builds (Dude, Haykuro, JF..) and I think I've run into this under each of them. Usually shortly after I flash a new one. My theory has been that the Market thinks I still have the apps installed but doesn't see the version info (since the app was wiped) so it downloads an "update." Not certain, though.
On my G1 I have never seen an update from the market get automatically downloaded. I get a notification that updates are available but I have to trigger the update manually. Is there a setting somewhere for this?
Well i runs official 1.5 for ADP and i havnt had the problem (yet) - so i guess its not a bug in official software
//M
that has been happening to me too
i will wake up and my notifications will say that an application has been installed
then it will say updates are available
wierd

I have an official ADP1 with official Cupcake upgrade; no modifications. So it must be sobe bug in the official Android 1.5 build.
Today it happened again, for the 3rd time in 5 days. Again over 30 applications re-installed, 20+ MB of traffic used. Weired!!
I had this happen, but only with 1 app, and only 2 times (once on TheDude's cupcake and once on JF's) and it never happened again...so I dunno.
Hello there, new to the forum so i'll put it straight. Thumbs up for all u guys trying to improve all our devices.
So let's get starting. My SGS GT 9000 is running very slow since i updated it. Now running Gingerbread 2.3.6 with i9000XXJW4 baseband and when i start just the facebook app (after a fresh restart) my phone starts to slow down, it takes up to 30 seconds to display the news feeds, more than 30 seconds to load a photo (even my old optimus one runs better). I have no other apps running in background (just did a quick reset to factory) so where seems to be the problem. Is there is any issue with the new update or i don't know something that i've missed please let me know. Also I don't know if i have to provide you any other info about my phone but if is needed i'm here
What is to be done, 2 taps, 2 apps and phone almost crashes (had skype and what's app and when i started fruit ninja screen got black and voila - needed restart) I don't really wanna root my phone since iv'e seen some guys here experiencing great improvements after this (but if that is the case than wtf )
Hi.
So, I bought a Galaxy A5 2016 as my new daily driver. What a beautiful phone, really. Pretty fast, better than I expected, I must say. But things are not going so well.
I have a intense usage pattern. On the morning, I use Spotify (sth like 20-30 min), then e-mail sync through the day (every 5m) + browsing and messaging apps. Then, more 40m of Spotify. Everything seems in pair with other devices with similar price and hardware specs. Until today.
As my usage pattern reports, I always use Spotify for 20-30 mins every morning. Today, I was using it, and the song suddenly stopped. As a coincidence, my 3G connection is limited - so it's not operating on its normal speed, which roams about 3Mbps~5Mbps - so I thought that the connection was dropped. When I pressed the HOME button, nothing happened. The song suddenly stopped, along with the system. 10 seconds later, the song returned to play. Less than 5 minutes later, the same bug happened again - same MO. 10 seconds off, returns, didn't happen again. Tested Spotify on the afternoon (same conditions + SAMSUNG personal music player running together), didn't happen too.
Along with that, my RAM usage is pretty high. Besides my downloaded applications, the RAM is mostly consumed by the system itself - so maybe root will fix it. But I'd like to know if anyone ran into this abnormal RAM usage. I even thought about memory leak, but that seems a bit odd, since the memory leak stopped being reported in Android 5.1.
Has anyone ran into any of this issues before? Thanks in advance.
I have it for two days now, yup, ram is at least 80% when I clean up the memory.
It's also pretty hot during the lightest use, average temperature is 35C. When idle it's at least 28C. Anyway, glass backpanel feels really hot, is it normal?
What's your average temperature?
I also want to report that i have the same problem on my A510F on MM 6.0.1 (no root). I have disabled many apps like Skype, S-voice, all the microsoft apps and some system apps that could be disabled but pretty much nothing changed... My ram usage is always around 70%, if i clean it it goes down to 55%-60% but then it gets full again. This does have an impact on the overall performance since on heavy games and generally heavy usage, the phone lags and gets hot. I want to know if ROOTING the device and installing xposed modules and/or uninstalling much of the samsung crap will help the phone breath normally. Any answer or tip is welcome
I have at least 70% of RAM usage and i think it is ok... but there ia a problem over 85-90%: then I have almost same problem as you. It's my second A5 16 and still have this problem. I don't know what to do. This issue happens increasingly. I have 5.1.1 and still hope for removing this problem with marshmallow update.
Anyone more has this problem?
Any ideas what to do?
It makes this phone useless when happens so often![emoji35]

Same problems on MM too, 70-85% RAM usage...hope to solve in feature updates.
Sent from my SM-T560 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I don't see anything bad in usage above 85%, the problem is closing, crashing and lagging apps.
If MM (update for Europe/Poland) doesn't fix it I will probably sell this phone. It's unbelievable to crash apps during using just a 2 of them (in my case Spotify and instagram at top and a few used before).

Did anyone try to fix this problem by "turning off apps in background" in programist options?
I would really like to do that, but every time when I turn this option ON and go back to settings and again go to programist settings it is turned off again - can anyone try to do it on yours phone?
Skrobnięte z A5 '16
Mine is always around 55~60% but free RAM = wasted RAM in Android
More free RAM =/= Smoothness
My A5 2016 can multitask very well (Even with games!) and not much lags
So why some of A5's has so huge problems with ram managing?
Skrobnięte z A5 '16
Is there any stock Android like ROM available for Galaxy a5?
I get MM update yesterday, after 24 I can say my problem stops. Phone seem to be faster and don't get above 87% ram usage.
I didn't restore A5 16 to factory settings.

I have problem with level battery when Reach 5% my mobile trun off ??? Plz slov
@up
First thing which you should do is restoring to factory settings and then we will see.

did this happen after u do an update?
im using A5 (2016) for my daily driver.. using spotify a lot too when comutting. never failed me until now (4 month). in my region A5 still dont get MM yet. so i manually upgrade to ROM everymonth with russia region (MM). suprisingly samsung do apply 'android security update' every month for A series.
is ur device is locked by some carrier? AT-T /other? if not try flashing with Russia ROM. u can flash with odin. fear not, ur data & apps still intact. if u flash official fw with odin.
for ram usage, i think this is not a problem. the multitasking still flawless for 2GB of ram. the feature i like from this phone is the GPS. lock very fast. im glad buying this phone. the only downside for me is 'no notification led'
Hello,
I have a stock Moto X force for about 20 months.
I've been suffering from lagging lately (sometimes it takes a few seconds when trying to switch between apps or the keyboard becomes unresponsive). I think it got worse after the 7.0 update.
I've downloaded an app for system monitoring and I've noticed that at times of lag the internal disk activity is maxed (Read & Write are 100% (not sure exactly what that means)) (Can't add attachments). But, cpu performance and ram usage seems fine. I assume some app is causing this but have no suspects at the moment. How should I continue my debug from here ?
Thanks
Hello Juvesss,
Exactly the same phone with the same problem since one week ago... If you solved it please explain me, this is a pain!
No OS upgrade was involved in my case, I have Nougat since a long ago.
Cache wipe did not help. Limiting background processes to 3 helped just a little (developer menu).

I've been noticing this problem too.
Not sure what the cause is.
I've factory reset and that seems to fix the problem for awhile, but it seems to come back over time.
Something in the stock rom must be cluttering the phone.
Dear roweboat56,
It happened to me after 12 months of having it, so for my experience it is not so frequent. How often happened it to you? (To understand better how long will I "enjoy" the factory reset solution...)
Move to a custom rom!
I faced that issue too! The last update was buggy maybe..and the moto services and rest apps by moto are eating a lot of ram and using a good amount of I/O
.
Try this rom by me (on the latest 7.1.2 build with 5th February 2018 security patch)

Change battery profile to power save, and see the magic
No heating at all!

Hm I noticed after maybe 2 months of use or so?
Im on Latest Stock FW Android N ,using the device since 8months and not find any lag, in my case it lacks a bit when heated a lot.
I didnt disable any of the Moto Services though.
Try using Greenify if it solves the issue. I will not unlock my phone till it gets 14-15month old and see whether the same happens to me
It is strange... In my case the phenomenon suddenly disappeared some weeks ago, so I think some system update messed it all and later another update solved it. I have the impression it was a system problem and not a particular app, because I tried to uninstall the more suspicious apps without appreciating any change.
hello everyone
I bought a "samsung j5 prime" in October 2017 and its initial operating system was Android 6.0.1
At that time, the only problem with this mobile was the high battery consumption
A few months later, Samsung provided android 7 (nougat) for j5 prime - I updated my phone for a new update in the hope of fixing it high battery usage
but not only did not fix my phone's battery problem, "the hanging - lagging - some times reset" problem was added to it
A few months later, Samsung provided android 8 (oreo) for j5 prime - I updated my phone for a new update in the hope of fixing it "hanging - lagging - some times reset - high battery usage"
But only 50% of the battery problem was solved and hanging and some times reset problem was solved
now i have lagging and delay in performances problems
for example when i want to moving between active apps windows , active app windows will appear with a delay of 2 seconds
or
when I want to use the keyboard, keyboard letters will appear with a 3 second delay
And the handset is very slow and very lagging
I've already factory reset it twice but my problem was not resolved
now i want to downgrade my android oreo to android 6.0.1
but I'm scared
Because I read in some of the forums, After downgrade, there will be problems with mobile
for example "imei null - network problem - frp problem - ringing problem - ..."
what should I do?

Flash an aosp rom preferably based on android pie as android pie's battery optimization is a hell of a lot better than before and aosp ROMs are light and way faster than samsungs firmware
