Question [Q] Starting to get laggy/buggy again even after lag-fix?

Hey all,

I installed Super Rooter shortly before it became SRE, I based it on the JH3 firmware. With it is SLA4 and I used the packaged lag-fix and bloatware remover. It was going great for a while, but recently things are getting screwy. Things that are happening once in a while:
  • I click home, and the home screen is entirely blank and all the icons and apps have to re-load
  • When installing programs, everything is horribly slow
  • Unlocking the phone sometimes is very delayed

Is anyone else experiencing any of these problems? Also, I have a lot of apps installed. Always running are: SmartBar, SystemPanel and Tasker.

Let me know if I left out any important information.

Thanks!

Mine was like this for a while. Problem went away when I rebooted. This was on stock firmware with RyanZA lagfix only.

I'm having the same problem with the Lagfix installed. I tried to uninstall it to see if that was the problem, but it messed up and screwed up my data. I have to reinstall a ROM now.

i have noticed the exact same lags....the one where everything has to reload is especially annoying. happens every once in awhile when i open the app drawer too.

surprisingly enough, i am also running jh3 with super rooter (before it became sre)...i was excited because i came home today expecting to do a jh7 flash with the latest SRE, and then i see unhelpful updated his kernal, and DG is going to take a few days and update the whole sre program to either a full blown rom or add many options for flashing.

Sounds like a your running out of RAM, not filesystem lag issues.

Get a task killer, configure it to ignore the apps/widgets you dont want it to kill. Add the task killers "Kill All" widget to your default home screen and hit the kill all widget every time you back out of an application you are done using.

When your captivate is unable to keep more than 100-140MB of RAM free its time for a reboot. If you can never maintain this much free RAM even after a fresh reboot, cut down to 2 or 3 home screens and and less widgets.

With ADW.Launcher, 2 home screens and 3 Widgets total I never fall under 200MB of RAM free (Rooted)
Device:
Samsung Galaxy S (Captivate)
ROM: Cognition 2.3b3
