New SGS 2 lockscreen & homescreen lags

[Marius Adrian]

Hello,
I've installed today the latest version of MIUI (2.9.7) on my SGS 2. I've used MIUI before on my SGS 1, and it worked flawlessly.
The thing is that the lockscreen (the default circle one) is verry laggy. The same problem is with the homescreen itself. Same thing with moving icons. If i compare my SGS 1 with MIUI and SGS2, well, SGS1 is much faster, no lags in locksreen or in home. I've cleared cache and dalvik cache but still not better.
Any sugestions ?

And back...
Noticed one more thing. When swiping trough homescreen, aometimes the page does not "turn", instead it bounces back. Noticed strange behavior in chrome as well... when scrolling, the page does not move correctly.

Add the following to build.prop or local.prop and report if it improves the feel.

debug.composition.type=hw
debug.performance.tuning=1
debug.sf.hw=1
persist.sys.purgeable_assets=1
persist.sys.ui.hw=1
persist.sys.use_dithering=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=120

This does actually help a bit. But it's still not very smooth. I'm on build 2.9.21. I filled this in the build.prop file.

My NS is buttery smooth on ICS and JB, so I dunno what they broke in the S2 rom.

The same with lockscreen at 2.9.29, so frustrating, the lockscreen looks ugly because of that.

Same problem here, SGS2

s2 will always lag on screen wake up because of the deep sleep mechanism, i think its rather hardware or kernel related than rom.

I saw the lockscreen lags problem many times, but which one is actually lagging? Is it by pressing home key during screen-off to show the lockscreen or by pressing lock icon to unlock the screen? and how lag is actually the lags? Because I'm using S2 too and never feel/notice lagging for both of them.

i think it's just the theme
let's test it

first download this small theme from here i modded it to test the lag, and tell me if it really laggy or not
it will use only 1 image:

I/ResourceManager(  308): load image u.png

unlike the miui theme that will use at least 38 images:
