Android 4.3 - Samsung Galaxy S4 - Bad lag - WTF!?

12-13-2013, 01:12 AM

Android pushed v4.3 onto my phone a couple weeks ago, and ever since it upgraded itself, the phone "hangs", or "lags" OFTEN, right in the middle of doing anything on the phone. While texting, emailing, surfing, you name it.

It was not like that before the upgrade, so anyone else with this issue? And what is the solution?

Only lagging I see is if I don't reboot my Galaxy for a few months and it's normally the browser that lags, nothing else. Just turn it off and on and see if it helps

KitKat (4.4) is meant to be better and faster - I'm enjoying it so far...

Can you force Samsung's to upgrade?....

No lag on my S4 with 4.3.

So far no 4.4 which is why I bought the S4.

Quite bad huh? My SIII performs like SHIT now compared to before. To a point it feels like an old school droid (maybe exagerating cause it's still quicker than any other phone ive had)

System functions are snappy, its the app loading and exiting thats slow

Rebooted many times, still same issue. It only happened after the upgrade from 4.2 to 4.3 - no idea how to force a new upgrade. Wondering if it could be an app I installed that is causing it, but it seems unlikely.

Fuck iPhone, hate that thing. So small and useless. But this is annoying.

How do I DOWNGRADE?

Hah, just read this in the news! Could it be it?!:

DECEMBER 12, 2013 | BY PETER ECKERSLEY
Google Removes Vital Privacy Feature From Android, Claiming Its Release Was Accidental

Yesterday, we published a blog post lauding an extremely important app privacy feature that was added in Android 4.3. That feature allows users to install apps while preventing the app from collecting sensitive data like the user's location or address book.

The App Ops interface removed in Android 4.4.2The App Ops interface removed in Android 4.4.2
After we published the post, several people contacted us to say that the feature had actually been removed in Android 4.4.2, which was released earlier this week. Today, we installed that update to our test device, and can confirm that the App Ops privacy feature that we were excited about yesterday is in fact now gone.

When asked for comment, Google told us that the feature had only ever been released by accident ? that it was experimental, and that it could break some of the apps policed by it. We are suspicious of this explanation, and do not think that it in any way justifies removing the feature rather than improving it.1

The disappearance of App Ops is alarming news for Android users. The fact that they cannot turn off app permissions is a Stygian hole in the Android security model, and a billion people's data is being sucked through. Embarrassingly, it is also one that Apple managed to fix in iOS years ago.

A moment ago, it looked as though Google cared about this massive privacy problem. Now we have our doubts. The only way to dispel them, frankly, is for Google to urgently reenable the App Ops interface, as well as adding some polish and completing the fundamental pieces that it is missing:

Android users should be able to disable all collection of trackable identifiers by an app with a single switch, including data like phone numbers, IMEIs, information about the user's accounts.
There should be a way to disable an app's network access entirely. It is clear that a large fraction of apps (including flashlights, wallpapers, UI skins, many games) simply don't need network access and, as we saw last week, are prone to abuse it.
The App Ops interface needs to be smoothed out an properly integrated into the main OS user interface, including the Settings->Apps menus and the Play Store. There are numerous ways to make App Ops work for developers. Pick one, and deploy it.
In the mean time, we're not sure what to say to Android users. If app privacy is especially important to you ? if, for instance, you want to be able to install an app like Shazam or Skype or Brightest Flashlight without giving it permission to know your location ? we would have to advise you not to accept the update to 4.4.2. But this is also a catastrophic situation, because the update to Android 4.4.2 contains fixes to security and denial-of-service bugs. So, for the time being, users will need to chose between either privacy or security on the Android devices, but not both.

Google, the right thing to do here is obvious.

I'm running 4.4.1 on my Note 2. Albeit, it's still in beta, called OmniROM -- which consists of (mostly) former CM devs that decided to branch off and do their own thing due to the route CM is going with their development (or some shit like that) -- and it's running pretty fucking smoothly. Still missing some things but over the next few months it'll get there.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone use it as a "daily driver" unless you're comfortable with custom rom stuff, especially since this one auto updates (well, auto downloads and prompts you to update) to each new daily release.

Cliff Notes: 4.4 is definitely coming to Samsung one way or another, and when it's out of beta it's going to be the best version yet IMHO.

Power off phone.
hold volume up and home buttons down, then press and hold power at the same time.
When the phone vibrates release only the power button.
this will boot into a special menu that lets you wipe the cache partition. Use volume buttons to navigate the menu and the power button to select.

just did it. Lets see...

You can disable it... System Settings > Language & Input > click the settings icon for your keyboard > the option for auto correct should be in there somewhere

I got a S4 a month ago, love the phone, camera takes amazing low light pics
I just looked and I'm running 4.3 and it's pretty damn fast.
GF got the new G2, little strange for me because the whole front of it is a touch screen, buttons are on the back

Webair died?
Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that

I just picked up an S4 over the holiday and I love it. No problems yet - knock on wood. I came from an HTC Evo3D though, so it's a lot quicker. I'm running 4.3 too.
