Place updates on wifi. Then untick auto update and most imp "disable" samsung apps.

Gallery has always been slow, software needs lots of optimizing there. But i have not noticed any lag yet.I am just fighting to try and prevent this stupid AllCast, Flipboard and a few other services automatically updating/installing.

Can't you just disable those apps or do you actually use it?

Yes i did all of that and it just downloads them anyways, i remove the updates and disable the app. About 10mins later i notice the bastard updating again.

Ag dude man... Sorry missed that. That there is the reason I root. Alternatively install another official firmware that perhaps don't have those apps

Yeah im tempted to root now. Plus my friend and I have started writing an app for android, so will be easier to test with a rooted phone.

Same here. So when I saw stuff downloading i stopped them and unticked autoupdate. There is a main samsung app that downloads all these apps. I disabled it and so far no issues but will see tomorrow.

Only time my phone has ever been laggy so far is when I had Themer installed.

I just use application manager and look at running apps.

The running apps widget is also handy but more basic.

Te lank - Too long. Liked task manager being accessible.

Running apps widget is fast but simple. Works for a quick view.

Ok widget will set it up

Yea it works well for a quick view of basic apps that are running and to see ram usage.

Here is a screenshot showing books from my Amazon library and the new book they gave me on the left of the last book I purchased.

So it logged in fine and shows me my books. But when I try purchase a Samsung Deal book, I get prompted for Amazon password and then pushed to this error page


Edit: Figured it out... Amazon wanted up to date credit card details for Kindle
