Lol i think it explains why i see 0.5 sec most delay on recents and other people report 2-3 sec. I disabled talkback 1st day i got the phone dunno why its related though.

Thanks mate!

Yes I guess so @tmac31 Even as talkback is disabled by default under accessibility , the service still runs. But mysteriously it solves the lag problem by killing the service complete. Strange though it only seems to solve on Lollipop and not on KitKat

Okay m8, for me disabling the talkback service brought the lag down from 3 second to 0.5. I'm happy with it

Nice one. Worked a marvel on KK, no need for reboot and lag reduced from 1s to a fraction of second.

Works great on my N910G (4.4.4) and N910K (5.01), thanks for the tip @marleyb.

you're welcome m8 :highfive:

I already had talkback disabled, but I still get a very annoying lag of maybe 1-2 seconds on KK... hopefully Lollipop will improve it.

Yeah, problems again
When I play RR3, it is always force close bacause run out of RAM
The solution in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658699

maybe you should try some apps as "greenify" or "clean master" as they dont need root.. Idk if they fix something with your problem cause i never used 4.3 for more than 2 hours... but you still can try.. you can free more ram by disable your widgets too ..
low ram, lags & freezes all the time. poor multi-tasking also. 266 really does eat dirt

Many people say SuperCharger has only placebo effects. I used to think the same way. Until I got 4.3 update from Sony with its poor ram management.
Few days ago I installed SuperCharger MOD with service.jar patched. I used to have launcher redraws, keyboard disappearing, etc. Especially when I open heavy ram earwr app like chrome. Now, I rarely have these issues. I suggest you to try it out. I am now happy with my Xperia SP.

my main problem is screen flickering like a pulse every 1 second... everywhere.. in ui,games,photos.. even in cwm.. i cant fix it i have tried EVERYTHING .. differend kernels differend roms... 4.4 liquid rom with nayan kernel do the same :S its very annoying... but with 4.1.2 all works perfect...
266 is a piece of crap. when I bought the phone I upgraded right from the start to 4.3... and almost returned it to the store. but then I decided to downgrade to 4.1.2... man, its like heaven. best rom ever lol
When at 4.1.2, the song app will be stopped once i open chrome for browsing less than one song,
now at 4.3, the song apps will only be stopped/closed after 6 or 7 songs..
Although is an improvement, but i belief it is still a problem for android 4.3 for SP
I am back to stock .254. Avoiding all those bloatware prefering dolphin, shuttle music player, etc. So far, encountering no issues and system is fast. And I'm still resisting the urge to flash rooted 4.3.
In .266 everything is bad.
1)Ram management is 1big problem
2)volume bar disappeared
3)call starts with loudspeaker On
4)Camera..Maybe Sony installed 2.0 mp camera and telling it's 8.0 mp.
5)etc.

On my 254 - I greenify those apps which never exit even when I close them. And I freeze those not used.
Today, i spent 1 hour on music and 30 minutes fiddling with my calendar. Lost 7% (only?) battery...
Don't know - maybe 266 may increase its battery span as well if I apply the same processes...

As I know, Android will use RAM as many as possible. It is not same as Windows. When the phone needs more memory, the system will close background apps and unused apps automatically. So the Task Killer, Task Manager, Clean Master, is SUCKS. It will make your Android more slowly
Greenify will hibernate the apps, but I think the system will still uses half of memory if I'm not edit the build.prop, needs ROOT to edit :'(
So i send this to sony forums

they allready know that its a bug-fw.. every day people complain about problems on 4.3... and what makes me mad is that for almost all problems the solution is "do repair with sus" or "do factory reset" or "go your phone to local service" xD nvm at least the confirmed new bug fixing update... i can w8 for ever.. i just hope they will fix ALL the bugs..

Yeah sure, my point was that it would be cool have a lot of voters in that poll xD, so Sony could have a clear view (with external data) of whats is more important and what is actually causing issues with the XSP...
And... sadly my hopes are not so big with the new frimmware, it was more than 2 weeks and is not released yet....
In my case my major bugs is battery drain in 3g (the sonyericcson.wakeup thing) and ram management... and actually, a repair with PCC taked off all other bugs for me, and I did it only once xD

Another lag fix idea

Right I've been follow like most the threads about sorting out the lag we sometimes receive on the G3.
I tried the fixes and while improved it's not gone.
So I decided to fiddle and to my surprise improved things alot.
Go into Developer option and tick DISABLE HW OVERLAYS
I used to notice lag when going in the app drawer and hitting the home button, a pause, stutter then animation. Now it has a millisecond pause and a smooth animation to the home screen.
Give it ago and report back.
Yeah, well, I saw no such improvement. Furthermore, that setting doesn't persist after a reboot.
If you want it to remain, you'd need to edit build.prop and change:
'debug.composition.type=c2d'
to
'debug.composition.type=gpu' (or cpu)
It's not worth it in my opinion, if there is a difference, I'd need to run home quickly to grab my atomic clock to measure the difference.
No difference for me either

Odd, it's a massive improvement here, are you guys running anything else ?
No difference for me.
Running ART, rooted, removed lots of bad stuff and used trickster tweaks, with 10f.

That phone does not have a camera. It is a petty. HTC will probably disappear soon: they have not been able to get benefits in 2013 and 2014. Customers currenty dont want to know about them due to evil sw update policy. I dont think a clever customer will buy an HTC.
Thanks anyway.

LoL...I don't notice any lag on my G3. What's kind of funny is some M8 users said the camera was fine back when it came out. Months later they like the G3 camera better. HTC took a gamble on the M8 camera and failed. Imo
This helped a lot. Things are a lot snappier.
Thanks!
Tried the M8 but think I've broken it trying to get the battery out
Works for me D855 32GB on V10i-GLOBAL-SI

[XT1068] My first thoughts about Android 5.0.2

Well, the 5.0.2 Android Version arrived on my Moto G two days ago (xt1068). I was really hopping that my phone would get a smoother and clean system usage, but i got a huge disappointment while facing with laggy transition, a horrible microstuttered close-in/close-out on menu and main screen and some weird stuff like getting 90% of RAM used when i'm only with whatsapp opened.
So, i'm just in the mood to share this with you guys, and also i would like to see some reply or some "fix" for it. Thanks for reading!
I don't have lollipop. but did you power off and then power on? reboot.
After using 2 weeks. Lollipop is awesome. Had little slutter and battery draining problem. But its perfect now.
Try Nova Launcher - Stock Google Now Launcher is known to be laggy.

Annoying Turn off data pop up

So after the july update, everything seems to be cleaner on my phone. But i just noticed 1 thing that annoys me for the past few hours.
When u turn on ur mobile data it goes juz like normal but when u wanna turn it off, there's a annoying pop up message that wants confirmation from you.
Anyone knows how can i turn that off?

If you use Xposed (Warning - This breaks Safetynet, even systemless Xposed does) then you can use the module named I Said OFF! to turn off this annoying pop up.
Custom ROMs don't have this annoying pop up if you are willing to ditch stock.

I JUST started using PIE controls by coolace (due to having seen it on this threat). It is working great so far, no slowdown or hangs or anything.
I am using snapdragon Note 9
Thanks for mentioning the app by the way, I think it might be favorite edge/gesture control now (have tried many)

btw my is really slow right ?
i found one funny issue with my pie control, if i open pie control in any screen other than home screen, it work perfectly but in home screen it take few second to load, any one have idea what it cause ?
I am actually taking back my recommendation on this app...
more than once I have had it kind of "take over" my screen.
What I mean is, any touch on my screen is attempting to touch something in PIE control (and not actually graphically showing PIE control, btw).
you effectively can't do anything at that point.
Its been a few days since I stopped using it, but I really did pretty exhaustively try to figure out how to stop this.
I really liked this app's "swipe" method instead of pulling the PIE out and having to like hold on a button for a quick sec, this app lets you do it in a smooth swiping motion.
Anyways, ive given up and gone back to onscreen navigation keys.
Every method I have tried (including XDA's navigation) has had some small hangups that eventually have problems working.
And no I haven't reported errors and such in respective threads, I just give up because my "lots of effort into having a hacky phone" days are behind me
