With stockUAME2 my phone is usually stutterfree. But at least once a day it starts to hang. There is lag in appdrawer and browsing trough homescreens.
After a restart everything is fine again. Hope its not like the emc bug in s3, where it finally dies.
Does any have an idea, how I can track down the cause of the problem? Or is my best bet to wait for samsung to improve their rom.
It does seem a bit odd. I find the device pretty fluid, but agree that you get the odd "jank" here and there. I notice it particularly in the app drawer once in a while, occasionally swiping through home screens, but mostly loading the gallery (seems to take 0.5 seconds to respond) then opening new albums can be a little jerky. I seem to remember a similar gallery issue on the S3 which was later fixed via firmware upgrade. Then again, as people have said, a device with this hardware should absolutely fly; it seems Sammy has some work to do in software optimisation to marry with the top-end hardware.
Incidentally, most of time I find myself with "power save mode" enabled and find this really fluid, at least in comparison to the S3 where frames would drop massively with that mode enabled. I've also disabled S-Voice home button double tap, and changed animations to 0.5x (I don't like turning animations completely off as that spoils the UI experience a little for me).
I read somewhere today that a new firmware build from May 14th and new change log was made available for Hong Kong, so perhaps the United Kingdom BTU update shouldn't be far off which would iron out some of these issues?
