[Q] Temple Run lag - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Is anyone else noticing significant lag while either of the Temple Run games?

The free one works fine for me

Hmmm. They're so laggy that it is making me die. I dunno.

Do you have Power Savings ON ?

Its gonna lag depending on your phone. If your rooted overclock your phone.

If it lags on the SGS3, something's wrong, as it doesn't lag on my SGS1.... (unless I get a notification while running...

It doesn't lag on my S3 either. As someone early, make sure the power saving setting isn't on.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using XDA

Power savings is not on. I dunno. It maybe because I used titanium backup to load the software. I had a backup on my HTC Vivid and I didn't want to lose my save data. I'll wait until there is an update and then we'll see if it is fixed.

Temple Run was updated yesterday. I had lots of lag on my S III before the new update.

Screen still redrawing

So after the update my screen is still redrawing from tike to time. Anyone else having this too?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yup, get this from time to time. Doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason to as and when it happens, but it does occasionally redraw. It's a weird one, hopefully it'll be sorted relatively soon!

After updating to LF2 my redraws reduced drastically and ever since I started using Apex launcher, they've disappeared completely....

It still redraws for me with Apex.
This can only be addressed by optimising apps to use less RAM. This is an inherent problem on any device without sufficient RAM.

In the beginning after the update it seemed to be gone. I still get it though occasionally when play a game like Nova or when play a 720P flash video in the internet.

Saw a vid on youtube and there were some commenters saying it´s still present. Guess It´s just not totally gone yet.
yeah, still have this issue and it's really annoying... Many were saying S2 does not have this issue, so why do we have this on S3? Good QA from Samsung for their most expensive smartphone!

I thought it was related to root but I've had these hot reboots even before rooting so it's not just root. Most likely an app.

Will take a while to hunt down the app but anybody else have 'LinkedIn' app installed? It just hot rebooted while launching that app from a fresh restart - quickest hot reboot I've ever seen.
It might not be that app but then I went to the Play Store page and there are tons of 1 star reviews because the last update failed on people's phones - more interestingly the most recent comment is from a GS2 user who says latest update reboots his phone.
I've uninstalled it and I doubt I can be that lucky that it's that app and I find it so quickly but crossing my fingers.
Mine rebooted after I opened the Navigation app.

Mine happened again. I've now uninstalled BetterBatteryStats. I'm going to start uninstalling stuff that uses root to roll that out. I've had these issues on stock but it happened rarely, lately it's been happening very frequently so something is going on.

Well I'm tired of the random hot reboots! Some people say it happened to them before rooting, but I don't believe it happened to me until I rooted and installed CWM touch......so I'm going back to stock to start all over again so I can try to narrow down the issue. I'll report back on my progress as it becomes available.

Happening often to me. The search continues. I've now uninstalled adfree. I'm positive this is an app since I had it occur on stock after two weeks of using the phone and installing crap.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
I had the same problem on my previous Captivate and am having it now on the GS III; no rhyme or reason to the reboots that I can see.
I still have heat problem but I played w/ different settings to see what it is.... I had att s3 which got really really hot... So returned it for Verizon s3. Verizon is better but learned that the data (lte/s3) makes it really hot and battery drain. Also the screen, of course.
If you're rooted then go get Phone info and disable lte. I tried CDMA auto for Verizon and it got much better... But at lowered download speed. I change it when I speed the speed... Doesn't require reboot so it's easy to change.
U can also under clock using setCPU.
I don't need it to be fast normally except when playing games... So just have it at 384min and 1024max... I find this helps allot w/ heat as well... U can try and find your setting that's acceptable speed and heat.
Just sharing my experience here.... So good luck.

Happens here too with the T-Mobile GS3. I think they rushed their fabrication process to deliver a high volume and fubared a few hardwarewise. I've even had it lockup/freeze once when not even in the OS but just in the recovery menu's. But yeah, the usual is a totally random unpredictable hot reboot throwing out my resident programs, homescreen, ect. Starts with the screen being frozen and not accepting input, then a short vibration, then back to homescreen reloading and all regular apps and widges that are supposed to run at boot load again. It's as if there's a micro static short or something. Anyway, I'm sick of problem solving and looking through logcats. Going back in for warranty. This is a dream phone except for this ultra annoying bug that it seems not many people have.

Happened to me once or twice (that I noticed) in the two weeks before I rooted (stock UCALEM), and a few more times after. It's just TouchPiz being pizzy. Maybe someone can catch the logcat, but there's nothing we can do about it (except install a better ROM )
How would anyone be able to diagnose this BS
"OK. My phone is hot. And it randomly reboots".
"Crap - u r out of luck buddy. Go change ur damn phone".
Provide ur phone model, ROM version, apps installed. Check ur battery stats.
As a solution - flash any custom ROM which removes bloatware.

So, anyone else playing this? Its working great with CROMI and with the dock, Xbox360 controller plugged in.
I play from time to time havent played in a while though.
Yep, but not too much. It's lagging sometimes like hell... I have graphics set to Medium, and even on this it lags sometimes. But overall it's great game. I wonder, if it's worth rooting and overcloking my tab to have better performance... Do you play on stock 1.3 GHz?

It really is worth it, without my overclock to 1.8ghz I can't play any fun games for sh*t. On the stock 1.3ghz I can't run NFS MW or this...

I play on stock 1.3 GHz no lag I think it's your tethering off phone. With my 20 mb fiber I get no lag. Phone service at&t not bad either.

Then it might be likely another issue, like server for Europe etc. Because I'm connected by fiber-optics with 40 Mbps. Tablet is connected to the network by WiFi N router. So, that should not be the reason.
Wow have you tried reinstall app? Seen people complain about need for speed as well.

Laggy ?

Hey guys so I just upgraded to the s4 and for some reason it seems laggy and slow . Now I did install safe strap root and flashed hyper and jelly but there was a lag feeling to it compared to my note 2. Titanium takes longer to restore same number if apps and even adding a gmail account its has some lag. So I went back to stock rooted to try this. Anyone else have this happen? I thought the s4 would be faster than n2.

I have gotten as high as 29000 something or other without overclocking the CPU. I think I was on Hyperdrive. I'd think vanir would smoke. That is one fast rom. Just did a run of that benchmark on eclipse 2.0. I have very modified kernel settings. Aimed @ a mix of battery and performance and scored 26500. Underclocked CPU.

Officially? No, it'll be locked down like any other release. After that? Who knows, we'll just have to wait to see if someone will be able to do it.
What kind of lag are you experiencing exactly? Mine used to stutter a lot more than it does now... here's what I did to fix mine:
1) Freeze/uninstall all bloat of course
2) In Dev options change all window animations to .5 (or off if you want)
3) Turn off Lock Screen animations (water drop/light effect) <--- this made the biggest difference oddly
4) Install Nova launcher and don't use too many home screen widgets
5) (Optional) I use a program called Clean Master which will clean up junk files and cache for you
My S4 still isn't completely lag free, it does still stutter from time to time during heavy multitasking but I think that's just the nature of a heavy skin like Touchwiz running in the background. Unfortunately I have ME7 so comparing it to AOSP is out of the question right now (I don't really want to run Safe Strap at the moment).
There are also other things I haven't tried like Greenify-ing apps and whatnot, but for now I'm happy with how it's acting.
Opening apps up and unlocking phone was laggu for me. I'll try what you suggested. I'm hoping I can either trade my phone for a mdk version or 4.3 becomes unlockable

I'm not sure. I doubt it. I have been hopeful that a dev is sitting on an exploit waiting until the 4.3 update to release it so there is not a opportunity to patch it. But as far as I know right now there is no exploit for the me7 boot loader and no prospects on the horizon.

Usually that is related to WiFi location being checked in location settings. Uncheck it and the usage will go down.

OK this is weird. So I have juice defender and freenift installed. Now I what's happening is I'm using the phone and say it drops 5% in zxx minutes. I when I come back a hour later its only 3% down. Its like IRS charging itself lol. Does this mean its not calibrated properly and is not reading it correctly there for maybe its giving false information ?

My wife has a S3 and I also had one before I upgraded to the S4. Initially this phone felt slower to me too but after rooting and installing a stock debloated rom it seems plenty fast. I rarely notice any lag at all....maybe after about 10 days without rebooting. My wifes S3 is SLOW as heck now which is really strange. I tried factory resetting it and last weekend flashed it in Odin...still slow.....her phone is insanely slow compared to mine.

Yeah, maybe my expectations were too high. I was running bonestock and it was the smoothest experience I had. But, the occasional home button lag, super slow dialer, and choppy performance during some game play and scrolling made the overall experience disappointing.

I know it's fun to bash Touchwiz but I think a lot of lag issues still hide under Android itself... I'm hoping to see good results with the TRIM feature in 4.4 (not sure if it's in 4.3?) to totally get rid of lag across all Androids.
I completely agree with you though, Touchwiz is bloated and heavy and I prefer stock Android over all others.
