HTC EVO 4G :: Laggy Phone With 4g
Oct 12, 2010
It seems that sometimes when I turn on 4g my evo starts to lag. Opening apps, typing, receiving messages...etc. but when I turn it off its still laggy and i have to restart to make it go back to normal. This appears to be completely random as it doesn't do it all the time, only sometimes. It doesn't matter whether I have good reception or not. Does this happen to anyone else? If so is there a fix for this or am I just stuck. Posted from my evo

The phone seems laggy. When I open up the app launcher, scrolling through them isn't smooth. Also, when I use the leap function, it lags switching between showing all 7 home screens and going to an individual one. Anyone else notice this?

Manual 2.1, helix, 5 screens, no live WP, and only a few widgets.Seems like the phone needs 3 or 4 seconds to process everything.. whether its a text message reply, or a new calendar event or loading an app. VERY annoying. Wasn't this way when I first got it. Switching from portrait to landscape or back again takes a good 5 seconds.. scrolling through the apps is jumpy.. etc.Yes, I run Advanced Task Killer (use the widget) and i run it like its going out of style to keep everything clean. I'm very OCD in this sense.

i called htc. Some stupid lady told me to reset my phone once a day to improve evo speed Then i called sprint customer service. He researched for 10mins, sent some kind of profile update to my phone and now when 4g is on my phone doesnt lag.I dont know what he did but it worked! Before i called him i tried all the updates through the update menu, but nothing worked. He definitely did something that isnt available through the update menu

ever since I installed Froyo my phone has been so laggy it's almost unresponsive. I'm rooted so that may be a cause but it might be a bad app. Anyone else have similar problems?

So far my Hero is pretty good, and I LOVE Sprint's service (I had AT&T and regularly dropped calls. I have not had a single dropped call since I switched to Sprint) and prices. However, my biggest complaint about the phone is the lag. It's such a slow phone.I mean, for most usage it's fine. But often when I'm trying to bang out a text or email, the keyboard lags a lot. Sometimes it thinks I'm still holding down the delete key and ends up deleting everything I wrote unless I stop it. The thing takes forever to switch to landscape. And using the music player makes the phone even worse (not to mention the music player just kinda sucks... I think I'm gonna get a Zune HD). So will 2.0 address these issues? Or is this a limitation of the comparatively old hardware in the phone? I want to love this phone, but when I can get a more mature Blackberry that's not as laggy and has a hardware keyboard, it's hard to do so. Droid looks nice but VZW is expensive, AT&T sucks, and T-Mo is cheap but has very little 3G coverage.

My sister recently got the Droid 2 mainly because of the physical keyboard. As far as the camera and the ability to use the internet goes she loves the phone. However, its really,really laggy. I have a Droid Incredible and I am amazed at the lag between switching home screens and the launching of apps on the 2. She also said that she has a problem with the phone sending texts to the wrong person. Does anyone else experience these sort of problems?
So my question is are there and Droid 2 users that got rid of their phone and found another Android Verizon phone that they like a lot?

I wanted to ask you if there are some must do's after upgrading to 2.1.Since upgrading..the phone is very laggy and sometimes the network will just drop.I won't be able to surf or use any programs that require getting on the internet.Is there something I can do now that I'm on 2.1 to restore it's speed? Should I do a reset to the phone and then upgrade to 2.1?What have you guys done to speed up the phone?

I'm running galaxo 1.6.2 which i installed on my phone running firmware XII5. Since the update I've noticed my phone very laggy and getting FC's all the time. From doing some reading, shouldnt the update have installed JC6 ? Is it my current firmware version the reason for my phones issues ? Do I need to Odin JC6 ?

Downloaded and installed 6.1 and although I do like it and love the battery life it seems very laggy when scrolling the screen.When I scroll down the application list or within the browers or just any application that involves scrolling the scroll is not smooth it seems very jerky.I tried the stable version 6.0.2 I think it was from Rom manager but that seemed to be worse.I wiped and cleared cache everytime I have flashed it, not sure if there is a step I am missing.Does anyone else have this issue or could anyone point me in the direction of something I might have missed?

Had my desire for about 8 months now and have had very few problems however since updating to 2.2 (on Orange) i have had a VERY laggy stock browser. i have downloaded Dolphin HD and that seems to fix it but i prefer the stock and it makes it easier to manage my bookmarks using the LauncherPro widgets.

I tried searching for a thread and nothing came up. Forgive me if this has been addressed before.
So I recently moved to a place where I can get 4g pretty much everywhere I go, which is awesome. Unfortunately though, the Evo gets unbearably laggy when I use 4g, even after I turn it off. It can take up to 5 seconds for the screen to turn on. I tried doing a hard reset, and for a day or two the evo was back to it's glorious self...but that was short-lived.Any suggestions?

I have tried using both launcher pro and ADW launcher, who have a reputation of being light launchers, and no matter how much I mess about with the settings, I always experience the same thing:
1: They are often not fluid when swiping screens, showing a little sign of lag or sluggishness that you do not experience with the Sense UI and which drives me crazy.
2: When unlocking the phones, the first swipe is always followed by a noticeable amount of latency.
This bothers me quite a bit, because I really like these launchers and I know of no other way to get the (from my POV) main advantage behind them (the dock).Any advice? I have tried messing about with the memory settings etc to no avail.

I seem to be realizing more and more every day that android actually really sucks at multitasking. What is up with that? The pre makes me rather jealous in that respect. Sure, it's usually not that big of a deal but it just should be better. It seems like all the apps I don't want to keep running do, and the ones that I do, don't. Any game will keep running after I'm done with it(and cannot be closed without the use of a 3rd party task killer - that's just pitiful) but if I want to look something up while I'm writing an email or a text message I have to save it as a draft. That just doesn't make any sense. The least google can do is include a task manager. If I didn't have advanced task manager, my phone would be laggy as hell because about half of my apps start when I start up my phone for no apparent reason and keep running. I can use advanced task manager and that's all well and good but I shouldn't HAVE to. Personally, this seems like a fairly big flaw to me. I love android and I'm sure I'll stick with it but I'd really really like to seem something similar to the "cards" idea with the pre. I love to make fun of the iPhone for not being able to multitask but that's almost hard to do with the state android is in right now.

Stock messaging app has become very laggy with over 3000 messages, some spawning threads of around 800 messages.Also, deleting them, while being an option, shouldn't be necessary. I delete all of my messages at the start of a new billing cycle and that's how it's always been with my smartphones, so none of those suggestions please For those of you who use 3rd party SMS apps, with large amounts of text messages, do you notice any of them being laggy?

I don't know if its coincidence but i just bought the motorola extended battery and my phone seems to be lagging alot with google voice and just seems a little unstable overall. Been loving my x but has been letting me down since the new battery, though i love the battery life with it. Guess i need to try the old battery again and see if it improves.

I used the Droid/Google GPS over Christmas to get from Tx to Fla... smooth as butter. Satellite view of the route was amazing.Since then I've rooted with SMUpdater and installed the newest Google Maps, as well as SetCPU, running at 800,000.I used the GPS yesterday and though it worked great, it was a bit laggy, took a while to fill in with satellite view from time to time, especially if I tried to zoom in at any point.Is the rendering of the map reliant more upon the speed of the processor or upon the speed of the internet -- and could any of the updates or mods affected this/

Firstly, I have an HTC Magic, so no hardware keyboard for me, only soft. I've found that typing can often be quite laggy. It depends on the application in which I'm typing, but Messenger can be quite laggy, especially in landscape, but is no where near as bad as ChompSMS was. On the other hand, Opera beats the default browser hands down (indeed, I think typing in Opera is the smoothest around!) - the default browser's typing is simply terrible when the page loaded has quite a few images and data. Now, I understand why this could be the case (limited ram, etc) but obviously, as a consumer or user, that doesn't make my experience any better.
The other day I reset my phone to factory defaults (gotta love gmail sync up!) and installed only the following apps:
AndNav2
Barcode scanner
BeebPlayer
Netcounter
Postcode Navigator
TTS Service
Useful Switchers
And it still seems pretty laggy. I regularly purge my browser cache and delete all my messenger threads. Is there anything else I'm missing? I love the phone, but this is becomming a bit of an issue for me, and the fact that so many others praise it makes me think there might be something wrong with my phone and/or setup, rather than it being a universal problem.

I didn't really pay attention, but since i have been on these forums I noticed when I type a post my keyboard lags. It isn't too bad while in portrait mode but when I'm in landscape my keyboard lags a LOT. I havent noticed it on any other sites. It is at its absolute worst when posting in landscape on this forum.
