[Q]Extreme lag in Gallery - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

hi all! I just got my note today andso far I am loving it. the only thing that really bothers me is that when using the gallery, there is quite a bit of lag - from launching the application to browsing actual photos. I only have a handful of wallpapers and the stock Samsung video on there, so I don't understand why I lags so much. it takes about 4-5 seconds to respond, and had completely frozen 5 times. I've tried clearing the application cache, but it hasn't solved it.
has anyone else experienced this? any advice will be much appreciated.

I have. And you are not alone. I remember reading about the lags in one of the reviews. I'm just patiently waiting for Samsung to provide a fix. In the meantime I've downloaded an alternative photo editor from the play store.

That's sad that something as basic to a smartphone as a gallery is messed up. I do hope it gets fixed sooner rather than later. I ended up downloading QuickPic in the meantime.

Actually I had problems with the Gallery app on other Android devices too. I ended up installing Quickpic instead, after I got tired of fighting the lag.

Same here, sadly.
Anyone knows a cool app like quick pic but with Google photos support?

Gallery app loads slow?

Almost every time I open the gallery app it takes what feels like forever to load my albums. I have TWO albums, camera pics and another of some backgrounds.
Less than 300 pics in camera, with a couple of videos, and about 20 in the other album.
I've disabled Google picture sync and instant upload so I don't see the picasa albums.
Does anyone else have this problem? It's been doing it for weeks, maybe longer, (had the phone since uk launch day). Pretty annoying when I go to show someone a pic on my big shiny phone only to hold it with the spinning loading circle for 30 seconds with them saying "nice new fast phone".
I'm on stock 4.0.1

Use Quickpic in the market...the stock 3d gallery has always been slow...
What if I prefer stock gallery app ? Would rather find out why gallery takes so long to list albums, if its like this for everyone then surely it's broken?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I have 22 albums. Most of them have at least 40 images the largest has 66. They load instantly.
Andoid 4.0.3 AOKP
Did UK not get the 402 update yet?
Maybe try dividing your albums.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Don't really want to split the albums, galley 3d worked fine on my rooted desire and I had 600+ pics in the camera folder on that.
Nope, I haven't had 4.0.2 yet, still on 4.0.1 with the volume bug fix
Will have to use quickpic for now until I get updates and see if they help I guess.

After having used QuickPic for a while, it blows my mind that anybody could prefer the stock gallery app. How in the world could you possibly prefer the stock gallery? QuickPic is so much better...
I used to use quickpic for a long time on my desire, I have nothing against it, it is quick and works well. I just like the look of the gallery app, along with side scrolling.
Different tastes and all that remember

The stock ICS gallery is perfectly fine.
Quickpic looks out dated and ugly, like something from HTC.

Form over function is idiotic.
Quickpic does what it should. Default Gallery never has.
I have lots of albums and photos, stock gallery app loads all of them instantly without any issues.
Am using AOKP 4.0.3 custom rom.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Stock Gallery works fine, until it doesn't!
Can you select which folders to include/exclude with the stock Gallery yet?
Something wrong with your phone. I have 2000+ pictures in 20 different albums. It loads instantly. This is along with another 1500+ pictures synced with Picasa.
I also have Quickpix but I only use it to do some batch operations. It looks really crappy and outdated.

I'm having the same issue. Stock gallery app loads super slow, takes close to a minute to show any images. I'm using quickpic until I figure out the issue, but I also prefer the stock gallery for normal image viewing. Any ideas?

New YouTube app lagging?

Hey guys. I was wondering if the new YouTube app is lagging on anyone else's t mobile Samsung galaxy s2. The latest update(the one from Google i/o) is lagging a lot. I first thought it was a memory issue in my phone.. however literally nothing else lags. Any feed back on how to get rid of the lag would be really appreciated.
I'm on stock. Not rooted.. no mods out anything.
Thanks guys
Yes is lagging so much

I know ur not rooted but try searching for the YouTube HD app and see if that fixes ur lag. It plays videos in 720p. I'm not sure if u will be able to replace it with the stock YouTube because ur not rooted but u can always try.
I have no lag with YouTube.

It works perfectly fine for me, in fact I prefer it over the old YouTube.

I have problems with YouTube app and browsers

Hello all,
I just got my nexus 7 2013 yesterday! But if I update the newest version of YouTube, it will restart.
If I use any browser Chorme, Aosp, firefox , etc o play video clips from YouTube, or any video pages, it restarts.
I used to have problem with the camera also, but it was fixed with the new update! Has anyone experienced the same problems? And any suggestion to solve? Thank you

This is what I did:
Uninstalled New Youtube app, go back to old YouTube, and it works fine.
Deleted the old youtube and install the new one from play store => restart like crazy
Try to turn on "Force GPU 2D rendering", browsers could go a bit longer than 30 secs before restarting
Every browser has that problem.....
Camera, turned on, and restart, but in the newest firmware with the Q, it was fixed.
Apps like Vevo works normally.
Install Plants VS Zombies 2, restart every now and then

You could always try and go for a complete wipe and flash the Google stock image. I'm pretty sure that it'll be fixed then.

Can I flash stock image through CWM or TRWP?
I think nothing works until now! I bought this in the US, but I came back to Australia already! Cannot return since it is not officially sold in here!
I started thinking about the hardware problems
Hope no one will get bad experience from Google and Asus like me! What a waste of money!
Can only use it to surf web and something like that, multimedia functions are dead!
Anyway! I did a bad choice!

I've got very similar issues, any programs incorporating video randomly lock up and reboot the tablet. I've uninstalled the latest YouTube app and stopped it auto updating which seem to have stabilized that but stuff like Skype still lock up.
Brought mine back from the US to the UK and I'm going to try Asus support see what they say, otherwise I'll have to try rooting and maybe a custom rom in time.
Don't bother to root it! Just bring to Asus since it is official launced there! I rooted, tried a number of different roms, but still the same.
New error for me, flickering screen......

Supertube and pvstar are not working do they work for you?

Hello. I recently purchased my note 3 coming from a HTC sensation one thing I noticed it that one of my favorite apps supertube would no longer work with my new note 3. When I play a video in it and press the home button the video should keep playing in the background but it isint.
So I then tried pvstar and the same issue happened when I leave the app the audio stops even tho its supposed to keep playing. I have used these apps for a while with my sensation so is it that they just don't work with the note 3?
Would you mind testing them out on your phone and see if they will still play?
Thanks

I have same issue on my s3.
On my old Galaxy Trend supertube was working fine but now i face same issue as you i hope someone knows a fix.
One easy solution is multiwindow. Then make the YouTube window really small.
i already found the solution:
use viral its much better and does the same thing.

Was just about to reccomend viral. Since supertube was taken down from the playstore and viral works perfectly with the Note 3.

LG G3 Chromecast

Hi All,
Not sure if anybody else is having this issue but whenever I try to play something on my chromecast with my G3 I get a systemui crash.
Never had this issue on my nexus 5 or my Z1 compact.
Anybody else experience this issue?
Thanks

I'm so glad someone brought this up...I thought it was only me at first. Was ready to flash it thinking it would fix it.
Anyone able to figure out how to fix it or should we just avoid casting anything on our G3 until theres a fix?
Well I get my phone Thursday so can take a look then if no one solves it before then.

Hi,
Try uninstalling the latest YouTube update on your phone. This worked for me.
Hope this helps.

Didn't work.
ME TOO! That sucks! I thought it was just me. What are supposed to do - stop using a Google product on Google's OS?
Shame this didn't work for you.
My YouTube app that does seem ok is version: 5.3.28
Not sure if it's possible to downgrade to this version though!

Wait until they update the app its probably a incompatibility with the qhd screen....report it to them via app store and they should fix it in a couple days

Unfortunately it is not just a youtube related problem. If you have the chrome beta app you can stream and mp4 videos from the browser directly to the chromecast and it crashed then also.
Also BubbleUPNP crashes when streaming to the chromecast.
A similar bug was found in some early samsung devices which samsung fixed with a software update so I believe this is for LG to fix and not Google.
This is happening to me on my lg gpad that i just got an update for a couple days ago! Anyone have a solution, please post it. Tia

Can you guys recommend something like apple tv- just two clicks and I've got my phone on my TV or audio on amplifier. Something simple and compatible with whole OS not just with two apps ie youtube or gallery...

Me neither. LG needs to check this out It's crazy. I'm tired of the battery pulls.
Is there anyone who are having these issues with Chromecast that are NOT rooted? Can someone confirm?
I'm not saying being rooted is the cause. That's stupid talk. I want to see if this is a feature LG breaks for rooted devices, or if this is simply a nasty bug. Some manufacturers do things like that, not that LG has a history of doing this (to my knowledge).
It's a bug in the LG software, nothing to do with root
