I'm thinking about removing the startup and shutdown sequence to speed up boot / shutdown.
But now I'm wondering if the eyecandy is just there to show progress and there are already things happening in the background while it displays.
Q: Will removing the startup / shutdown sequence result in faster boot / shutdown?
It's not just eyecandy.
There are already things happening during the startup sequence.
Imagine you would remove the startup sequence from windows.
You can't.
You can hide it but there are things happening during this time.
So you gain zero speed improvements.
THX, that's what I wanted to know.

Inside the Sound & display settings menu is section to turned down the animations used throughout the system. I find that turning them all of really makes the phone feel snappy, but it comes at the cost of some of the nice animated transitions between screens and apps. The settings allow three different options: completely off, some animations, or all animations turned on.
What I really want is all of the animations, except for the opening application one. This is the animation that occurs when you launch an application from one of the home screens or the launcher and it looks like the application window grows out from the center of the screen until it fills the entire screen. I think this one looks bad, especially when you have a bright colored background and when it is turned off applications feel like they open much quicker. Selecting 'some animations' from the settings will turn this one off, but it also disables the sliding transition that occurs when traversing through menus and pages in an app, which I actually really like.
So does anyone know of a way to disable animation one at a time?
I normally just set the animations to fast from the 'spare parts' application that is in most roms.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I tried that but it's still not ideal. I guess it can't be done at this point...
Hi all,
I've searched and Googled but it seems that this topic wasn't discussed very extensively...I have the app Advanced Task Manager and set it to startup ALWAYS after phone boot, but it doesn't start (the notification bar doesn't come up with any notification)...can anyone tell me if this feature is not implemented/is deactivated or is there something I have to do before this can work?
Thanks
The bottom of my SystemUi is being rendered off screen all the time. For an example, when this happens, I'm not able to see the bottom row of GBoard or default toast messages or the pie volume popup when i have the screen on landscape mode... This had been happening at random for the past few days and I've found if i force SystemUi to restart it goes back to normal for some time..
What do you think is happening? I'm running PixelExperience Pie...
I was able to find the problem after some playing around. It's my preferred navigation gesture application (FluidNG) that was causing the problem. Clearing the cache and storage of that app fixed the problem. Mods, please close this thread.
Everytime that I take a screenshot through the power menu or holding power + volume down, I get this weird toast that says "screenshot saved". This started recently and I'm not sure what caused it. Note that I am on Magisk stable with Xposed however I've tried disabling Xposed and running Core-only to no success.
Weird thing is it only applies to system UI screenshots, not assistant ones. This was confirmed when I download a toast origin app which showed the toast originating from System UI. Of course running in safe mode did nothing.
The only way I've found to temporarily stop the toast every time i screenshot is to reflash the patched boot image. However it comes back fairly quick and I've tried to find in the magisk logs if anything's changed.
here's a demo of it:

I know this seems really insignificant but if something isn't supposed to happen (which accd to the pixel group it isn't), then something's gotta be wrong.
Hi, I've had this issue for a while where apps seem to freeze up after locking and then unlocking the phone. So, for an example, let's say I am using the firefox browser app, and then I turn off the screen with the power button. Wait about 15-30 seconds, and then when I turn the screen back on it will be frozen on whatever I was viewing before.
What's weird is that the app appears to still be active, only the screen acts frozen. I know this because I have figured out that if I tap the recents key, and then tap the app I was just using, it refreshes/unfreezes the app to where I can use it again. I have tried scrolling when the screen is frozen, and when I use the recents key to unfreeze it, it will be further down the page. Sometimes, when the app freezes, the content section will be completely black until I do the refresh trick.
More information:
-If I lock and then unlock the phone immediately, it doesn't get frozen. It's only after about 10 seconds that it does this.
-I am not using a lock screen/password. If I have the option set to 'swipe' or any of the other variants, the problem does not seem to happen.
-I think this behavior may have started after the Android 9 update.
-Other functions on the phone work perfectly fine (I can still access the notification menu etc.)
I just viewed a post called 'frozen screen after waking up screen' that is the exact same issue I am having, but there doesn't appear to have been a solution yet so I'm bringing it back up if that's ok. Thanks for any help.
