Insane lag on H815

[anon(522296)]

Lag with just about every aspect of interaction with the phone and apps. I really love this thing but it's unbearable and had to go back to my s6. Tried a factory reset and still having the issue, anyone else with the H815 having big time lag issues?

No lag here. Who is your carrier?

No insane lag here on my H815 unfortunate that yours is suffering from this.

Shame that you gave up without trying all available possible solutions

Huh? Maybe a rogue app. Try disabling every app but what is absolutely essential, if you haven't already. If not then likely a defective phone.

Look at the opening screen, 1st one when the app opens. It gives the basic information you need.

With the phone at idle (apps can be open, but nothing such as an active phone call or file transfer) check CPU and RAM memory usage (pie charts upper left corner). Normally, CPU should be less than 5-10%. CPU clock speed (top horizontal bar) varies but should be something less than max.

RAM usage should be about 70-80%, unless you have recently rebooted and not yet opened apps to load RAM. You want to check these values after a fresh reboot, after some normal usage and when the phone has slowed.

If CPU is high, look at the app list on the same screen. Check the CPU usage for each app (small vertical bar on left edge, next to app icons) for offenders.

If RAM usage is too high, again on the opening screen look in the Active Applications list. Check for a running app you have not used recently. It may not have closed or cached properly and is holding RAM.

If nothing seems unusual in the Active Applications, scroll down to Inactive (Cached) Applications. It may be harder to determine what belongs in this list and what doesn't, but if something looks iffy, particularly if it shows holding a lot of RAM, you can try long-pressing on it and select 'End Task'. If you select a required system process, no worry, it will just restart. If RAM usage returns to normal and/or the phone feels faster, that could be the offender.

Troubleshooting beyond this gets more complicated, but what is outlined above will find most problems causing sluggish performance.

Also, run the app OS Monitor

If there's a "bad" app it will likely show up. I've had two models of the G4 - H815 and H811 T-Mobile - no lag on either.

Very easy to use, very telling.

OS Monitor is handy, I keep it installed. But if you like that you really should try System Panel. A very useful app, in spite of some eye candy, which in this case, is actually kinda handy itself.

I'm in the no lag boat. UK 815 here

OK -- I just purchased/installed SystemPanel; looking forward to using it. The app archive feature is fantastic, and the real test of the app will come when my phone (a note2 till June 19th... lgg4 in Canada, yeah!) is having one of its hissy fits and I need to figure out what's going on.
