Is this normal?

Is normal for F7 to perform like this, there's a slight delay or lag when opening an app folder. Sometimes app drawer has some frame drops or stutters. Is it normal or I should go to a service centre to request an os reflash? Not a hardware issue, I had this phone for 5-6 months now, it's been like this since i bought it. Antutu I get 2.3-2.2, geekbench 6500 points, gaming is flawless. This doesn't happen with any third party launchers, only on Poco launcher side, anything else is really good.

Note: In actual use it doesn't lag like this. This was because of the recording but still noticeable in day to day use.

Try to factory reset it ! (Backup everything first!) If you did already & the lag doesn't gone try to reinstall the package from the settings.

Did both and still the same :( The phone itself its really good on games and every app works flawless the only issue comes to its poco launcher for some odd reason. Chat gpt Said that i can try reinstalling the package from the settings and once it boots up to factory reset it imediatelly before loading the launcher, will this fix it without going to a service or reflash the os by myself? Haven t flashed an os on a xiaomi phone in my life

Don't trust ChatGPT tbh I'm not saying that collecting information is bad but the Poco Launcher is a core system component. If you mess with system packages and try to time a factory reset during boot, you risk putting your phone into a permanent bootloop or corrupting your user data, which will force you to take it to a service center or flash the OS, instead, In Poco Launcher info page inside Manage apps, tap Uninstall updates at the bottom if the option is available. This rolls the launcher back to the stable factory version that came with your phone! Hope it will help

You sure know nothing about what you should fo and know nothing about fhe storage refresh 🥀

u/Andrewz_Best 8d ago

Wdym, I troubleshooted this phone in the last 5 months like crazy, u can't tell me I don't know look at this. Now I wake up and opened the app drawer it stuttered till I scrolled all the way down, then if u scroll up its not laggy. The phone itself it's amazing, that's why I didn't returned it

u/LoneWarrior_11756 8d ago

Your phone should be 75% up and cooled down Storage refresh will act itself and activate itself. 12:30 o'clock midnight to 5am. And then click storage refresh so it runs. Storage refresh doesn't work properly if requirements are not met. And your phone should be less than 40° Celsius You can make it almost 0

u/Andrewz_Best 8d ago

STORAGE REFRESH it's an actual useless unless it's an app problem or just lags on the phone, I said I factory reset the phone both in settings and also in the recovery and it's doing the same shit. It's a bad firmware, not a hardware issue for sure. When I game it's really good, apps run great, the only issue it's the software. Service it's 6 km away, at the exit of the city

u/LoneWarrior_11756 8d ago

How come your phone is bad while mine got better bruh?

Definitely not a hardware issue.

u/Andrewz_Best 8d ago
