[Q] Similar App - SGS Touchscreen Booster.

Hi I recently came came across this app so haven't used it. Looks very intriguing though.
Is there any chance we will get this for our phone?

You've tried it on your SGS2? I did, but it seems that none of the modifications make that much of a difference, unfortunately . Pretty weird, since the Galaxy S 2 uses, from what I know, exactly the same touch screen as its predecessor (Amtel MaxTouch or something).
Wonder how much effort a port would cost.

It seems samsung patched that on 2.3.3. After updated to jv5, touchscreen booster don't work on my sgs1 too.

Unfortunately, I have never used this apk on my Samsung galaxy s 1. So I wonder; does this screen booster make your phone get rid of the split second screen delay? (Noticeable when you navigate very slowly with your finger on a webpage, 0.3~0.5 seconds after you initiated your gesture the screen jumps to your finger and starts following. If so, then this phone is on the same level of smoothness as the iOS devices (well, that's what I think).

I don't know if anyone else noticed but the SGSII also has Touchscreen lag(a pretty bad lag I would say, around 0.1-0.2sec delay).
The lag is VERY VERY noticeable when playing games which needs fast response like Fruitninja, Modern Combat 2 etc.
On my old DHD and iPad these games were really enjoyable with 0 lag! Hopefully some Devs can look into it and find a way to fix it.
Well..for now i guess i will just wait and pray.

thats true lag is definetly here. Very easy to notice when playing Impossible Game. On my previous SGS playing was much easier.

The app is actually working... when I set it to Super Optimized I can see a difference! People in the comments write that it also works on other devices...

That is false, I tested it and it does not work. To verify this, install "Multitouch Tester" from market and run it(maybe any other touchscreen test tool will do). You can easily see the lag while sliding your finger over the screen, cuz the circle simply cannot catch up.
And this lag does not exit in DHD or any other LCD devices i guess. Hope it is not an AMOLED input lag.

I wouldn't say the touchscreen is slow, it's actually very fluid in tracing your movements. But try and tap on your screen in the touch-viz app, tapping quickly; I can manage to touch the screen without registering a touch... No doubt there is a slight delay. But I it's not a deriving from the use AMOLED screen technology, others android devices I've seen suffer from this delay as well. I guess it's just part of the overall android touch calibration. Most touchscreens mange to house response times below 0,001 ms I once read~
Btw. People in different forums are complaining about the slight delay as well. For some of them the delay is even more noticeable. Maybe a future firmware update can solve this “potential downfall”.

BTW this is what Samsung avertises on their website. But in reality the response time is no where near fast.

Samsung is talking about the claimed sub-1ms display response time of the SAMOLED+ display itself - this has nothing to do with the touch substrate or its related delays.
All displays have some delay from the time the GPU sends a signal until it is shown onscreen. Sammy claims that this screen is among the fastest ever put into a device. For reference, good desktop gaming displays aren't that fast in response time, nor are good HDTVs.

Benchmark results and PC connectivity

hi. im kinda new to Lg phones . its infact my first LG phone ever.
first off, i will get something cleared out to all. im disappointed at almost no support from LG! its been a year and still 4.1? no updates what so ever? this was their flagship phone that was primarily focused to compete with Note 2 and even S4 but look where they are now! 4.4 KK!
now to the point of thread, i just got out of misery of soft brick. and just today i got the V5.5 rom of THIS rom.
out of curiosity i downloaded some benchmarks. here are my scores.
after looking at these scores i was like WTF is this??? guys any help, that are these scores NORMAL for LG OGP or is it my device???
i mean my Note 1, i remember, had better scores in Benchmarkpi than this!
Linpack score:

also another problem. i have installed the LG drivers for the mobile in the pc and also lg pc suite is installed. but when i connect this piece of **** to PC, it connects and disconnects continuously. it does not even show up in Computer. even after i have reinstalled the drivers like 6 times, its sitll not connecting. it connects when ever it desires. this phone is real ****. i ****ing hate it now.
pls some one help how to fix this???
pls assist.

4.4 is coming to our device. Be patient. As for the low scores, make sure quadcore management is turned off.
The heavy theming of LG's skin makes it extremely resource heavy which will "slow down" your phone.
If you're that worried about benchmark scores, try Carbon with the OC'd kernel. On Antutu, I get about 30k.
Benchmark scores are completely irrelevant. Even if your OGP scored lower than your Note 2, the OGP is still outperforming it in basically every way. Better processor and GPU.

Have you change the Thermal Daemon Mitigation to "ON"?
And maybe you can try using other usb cable.

you are right about the performance and about the relevancy of benchmarks. i dont trust them myself but even then man, these scores are too low for Snapdragon 600 im kinda worried about my hardware. thats why asked help here.
and i just wish LG brings KK soon enough.
i will be honest, i got this phones just cause of i got LG monitor like 4 months back and i was amazed by its display! like really amazed!
it is an IPS panel and its amazing. i got so impressed i got LG OGP just cause of its "LG make".
phone is very good. and to be honest i find more potential in LG Optimus UI than samsung's touchwiz cause i have had almost ZERO lag until now. its been a week i got this phone.
the only concerns i have are batter in stock roms is ****. i got this V5.5 rom which kinda corrected the battery or its just placebo effect but i find it better.
i just wish LG brings KK sooner man.
thanks for reply though

Like I said, give Carbon and the OC'd kernel a try. I've gotten 2052MHz to run stable on here even though I prefer using 1890MHz just in case. Having the GPU bumped up to 531MHz won't impact battery life and with hardware acceleration enabled, there is no possible way for this phone to lag. :3

What do you mean by "hardware acceleration enabled" ?

Should have kept my note 4

After having this phone sense it came out ...battery life is some what OK not any thing like the note 4 ......... WiFi keeps damn disconnecting .......memory issues sucks butt everything reloads ....no SD card ......and not but least there's no rom development for this piece of crap phone...I will be looking to trade or sell this phone

My wife has the note 4 and she's constantly hijacking my S6e???
Either she's crazy :sly: or your crazy ???

Sorry Pancho but he's not crazy. For some it doest bother them, other it's does. Honestly your telling everyone your getting a wonderful battery life, no memory leak issues where your phone is not responsive, and lastly wifi issues? Also the development in this phone is just not slow but terrible. The sprint variant for one is doing better then here. It's sad.

i regret i sold my NoteEdge.
galaxy s6 edge is waste a money, the edge screen doesnt do anything! the edge screen only turn on when main screen is off !
on NoteEdge, i can surf web, playing game, watching video and still able to check my live stock quote on the edge screen at the same time !

I gave my Note 4 to the wifey. She loves it and I don't regret it at all. I picked up her phone yesterday and was damn this phone is huge. lol I prefer a smaller phone for the summer time.

That's a preference. You prefer a Galaxy S series. But when I compare the note 4 Vs the s6 edge and I have a 64 GB edition, I can say that I miss my note 4. The performance even with stock tw was better then this device the s6 edge.

Disable the junk apps, that's the big drawback with Samsung and t mobile, they cram all that crap into your phone, in the process slowing it down.
BTW, I have 4 pages of disabled apps.

After I debloated using disable, everything was as I wanted/expected. They're all different phones. Yes, there might be better for you, but if you were insanely happy why would you switch. I held onto my S4 forever. I switched to the Edge because it really delighted me in person. I weighed what I was giving up and have since not really missed those features. Memory leak was harder for me on 5.0.2. I get it much less often than before. Battery like has been about the same as on the S4 but I actually use this phone more often. I don't know why people think the newest phones will fix the few ills of a phone that actually made them happy.

I also came from the S4 running root on a stock rom and it was fabulous.
Didn't even consider the S5 because it wasn't that much more than the S4.
My S6 edge is superior over the previous models.

Fastest phone I've ever had, my internet speed has almost quadrupled. Smooth fast phone for sure.

I went from my G2 to this G5 and my internet hotspotting is silky smooth now. I went from playing R6 Siege with spotty 150ms latency to smooth 90ms latency.

Swithed yesterday from my G3 to the G5. This thing is so ******* fast, just ridiculous

G5 presents a very good performance mainly because the LG overlay.

After a few months, mine has gotten insanely slow. Not much is installed on it either.

It's blazing fast!

I believe the slow down you are experiencing can be attributed to your launcher. If you use Nova launcher rather than the default LG Home, your device should never slow down - even with many apps installed. I would suggest changing it and then report back your results.

The device is very fast. Probably has the processing power of some full size computers.

I've had my G5 for a while now and the speed is still superb!

It's funny, people are so retarded. Everyone bashes on LG as in being a bad brand all the time everywhere. Meanwhile they build the most technologically advanced screens on the planet. The phones are of very high quality. I have the G5 for a year now, still as good as the day I bought it. I own a ultra wide monitor from LG who for the price crushes competitors. But yeah keep bashing because it's keeping prices low and gives faster pricedrops.

I agree LG makes a great product, had three LG phones so far, all worked great, sold two of them so far still working great. Just wish the H831 had root capability but it doesn't so no big deal.

It's faster than my core2duo laptop. I abuse my phone all day at work and this thing has been a monster. Battery life is awesome when the screen brightness is less than 50 percent too.

Super fast with Lineage OS! (h850)
Benchmarked with PcMark Work 2.0
3719 with battery optimization & balanced perf. profile
6214 in performance mode

Although I don't agree with the bashing, you can't deny the problems with the G3, G4, G5 and V10.
many G3 just died for no reason..G4 and V10 fried after a year or so. G5 has awful GPS design and very common image retention on the screen. G2, G6 and V20 are the best in my opinion. I had G4 that died, and I have a G5 right now with image retention and GPS that I fixed about 5 times already. Image retention and crappy GPS are very common issues with the G5, whether you have these issues or not.
The main reason I keep it is the camera.

The phone is very fast but I'm really disappointed about gaming part, framerate drops in big games with max settings, I was expecting better from a S820 device.
I'm thinking moving to LineageOS when 15.0 will be released.

Here as well, after a month i notice some slide downs, didn't update the software atcall, android 6.0.1 and firmware v10a as in the day it came.
---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 PM ----------
Also, i have image retention, gps is still good (that's one off the most important parts for me) and the Antutu benchmarks vary from 98000 to 141000, so does speed and framerate in games. I had LG optimus g pro before this one, g5 is faster for sure, but i have a problem when i run Sunvox (a DAW I've been using since long) and the sound is choppier sometimes than on my old G pro

The honor does fast, and smooth all around. I have not experience any form of "gittering" with their default battery management setup, thus it does not take away from the performance at all. Now when I switched the battery management to "performance" you would notice slight difference when playing heavy duty games. Over all, they did really good with the overall speed of the software.

I benchmarked the Honor 8 and my P9 and the Honor 8 won. Not necessarily the fairest test as I only ran it once, but perhaps the Honor 8 has been further optimised? Or can manage thermal issues better?
Either way, they're so close that unless you really want the premium look and feel of the P9, get the Honor 8. You also get Infrared and a fast charger in the box, which you certainly don't with the P9!
BTW, I don't own a Honor 8 (at least not yet) and love my P9 - but the Honor 8, especially in blue, looks awesome!

It is fast, no lag. Haven't found a game yet that it couldn't handle.
Sent from my FRD-L04 using Tapatalk

It has good cpu speed but the gui rendering is choppy in spots. It would have been nice if they used a GPU that matches the CPU but they cheaped out just like Mediatek. The real bummer is the poor battery life.

At the moment ir runs well, no lag, cause I didn't install many apps now on my phone, but to be honest, when I watch movies with it for 6 hours, it will heat, this makes me a little sad.

I have had no issues with the performance. I am running Nova Launcher on it and have no issues. Also, great battery life and no signs of getting hot during regular use. The software is definitely something that you have to spend a lot of time looking at. Not used to having to whitelist aps in order to keep them on when the phone is off such as Google Clock for alarms, etc. I also use Textra for texting as with the stock ap it doesn't pop up at all, just gives a small notification in the top bar.
But once I got it set up the way that I liked, it has been running great!

Thank you for the positive comments on the overall speed of the Honor 8 device! Housing a 9V/2A fast-charging technology reaches a 47% (from 0%) charge in just 30 minutes. So when you’re out there changing the world, the Honor 8 has you covered — with up to 10 hours of nonstop video playback and a speedy recharge. We appreciate the feedback! (NS)

It Performs great

I have been using Honor 8 for more than a month. Everything is fast and smooth, which can handle almost any apps easily. However, the phone can be very hot when running demanding game like GTA:SA.

That's due to the weak GPU on it, even SD810 devices have better GPU

Temperature of gpu does not affect how powerful or weak they are. Gta SA is easily maxed out on mediatek 6595 with powervr6200. If its hot, means the person is new to smartphone or maybe dont own any smartphone at all before this. The average temp while gaming is around 38-40°c only on the screen area(depends on how graphic intensive youre playing). Honor 8 is one of the coolest in temperature when it comes to gaming.

I would add this
https://youtu.be/4PNvj419AAs
As a real usage test. It performs on par with Mi5s Plus, only slightly beaten by the extra 2GB of ram. SD821 is also a bit cooler and with better GPU. But Kirin 950 architecture, RAM and file management is pretty much up there with the best.
