CM6 screen rotation slow

Has anyone else noticed how long it takes your screen to go from 90deg to 180/270? I am using CM6 and the ADW it comes with. Any settings to speed this up or is this just how it is?
I swear 5.0.8 didnt feel this slow when rotating.
thx!

Try changing the speed of Window animations and Transition animations in Spare Part to Fast...

Just tried this. MY GOD. its so friggin fast. I forgot all about it til you mentioned. Lol. So many mods you forget to change the settings sometimes.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

I noticed that the apps scrolling was slower, but now it's much faster. Thanks!

thanks for that tip - it definitely makes scroll and animation speed faster.
HOWEVER - screen orientation is not affected in the least by this setting. Is this a cm6 issue or a launcher issue?

I would think this would be related to performance in general. So if the phone is performing well, it rotates quickly. If it's performing poorly, it rotates slowly...
There's a few things you can try to improve performance. Overclocking helps a little, but it's not a huge difference. Keeping apps from auto-starting on boot helps, I'm not sure of a simple way on how to do it... Suggested method for preventing apps from auto-starting.
That same user also uses an app called 'DroidWall' to prevent apps from connecting without permission. Might help with performance as well (not sure, but it can't hurt).
Anything that will slow down your phone has to go. Widgets are killer I've found... As much as I like them, they made the home screen SO slow. On that same tangent of home screens, have you looked at different launchers? The stock 'Launcher2' is kinda slow itself. I like ADW myself - there's many others out there (Zeam, GoLauncher EX, Launcher Pro to name a few...)

So it rotates quickly portrait -> landscape, but landscape -> portrait is slow...? I don't think I've heard of that one... Anyone else?
I'm not sure what can be done to fix that to be honest... new one to me .

slight 'jerky' animation?

just got my razr i here in the uk. love the device so far. fantastic form factor and importantly for me, a superb battery life one things nagging me though...is anyone else seeing a slight 'jerky' animation? i see it when swiping left to the 'quick settings' screen and when pressing the apps button. once in the apps though the left <> right swiping is perfect! pressing the home button from the home screen to show 'manage pages' too is pretty jerky or laggy but not sure if that is how it should be this guy sees it initailly when starting the game just before 4.00 mins in
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SILUVIwiNF0
but once the game is running all seems ok. this guy i can see it at 1.57 when he swipes left from the homescreen to the 'quick settings'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rfud0GFXRg&feature=related
seems like it occurs when at some places within the phone but not everywhere. have i been spoilt using a nexus for the past week running a silky smooth jellybean vs this running ics? or is it a defective unit?

I would say on mine there is the slightest pause when moving to the quick settings that I hadn't noticed before! I hope it doesn't bug me now!!
Going to the manage pages screen or indeed the "helicopter view" (pinch zoom on the homescreen) is really jerky. But I dont find any noticeable lag or jerkiness anywhere else. In fact I find the whole experience smoother and slicker than even my Nexus 7. The only better Android experience I had was Jelly Bean on the Galaxy Nexus which is super silky.
Jelly Bean is slightly faster at a number of things especially switching screen context as the CPU is ramped to a high clock speed as soon as you touch the screen. I noticed the improvement in opening things like the app drawer when I had my Galaxy Nexus and upgraded to JB.

ooops sorry about that! :laugh:well i've adjusted both 'window animation scale' and 'transition animation scale' from 1x to off and that certainly speeds the whole ics experience up so that is worth doing if you have not. hope it does not affect the phone in another adverse way though

Does that not disbale animations?

don't think so. just seems to speed things up a touch.

This does indeed deactivate some Animations but only the ones Navigating in Apps or Settings and so on.
The actual Launcher Animation is not changed at all.
I have the same lag and its not so bad but still somehow annoying.
Didn't noticed that so much in all the test videos out there.
Someone tried to do a hard reset and start from scratch? Maybe fixes it.

I noticed really jerky animations on an M I saw at a Verizon kiosk, and the i seems to be fine from videos I see.

Choppy, Laggy Animations with Custom Kernels

Has anyone else noticed or does anyone else gave a solution to the major decrease in smoothness and fluidity of Lollipop's animations and UI navigation when using any of the current custom kernels available?
I've mostly used Sensei and I LOVE everything it allows me to do; especially battery life enhancement gained from tweaking voltage and clock speed but... One of the primary things I noticed in Lollipop when I first unboxed my nexus was how gorgeous and pleasant and smooth my phone was to use! It was like Project Butter all over again but instead properly implemented! As soon as I flash a custom kernel however, this goes away and animations can sometimes briefly hang, they're choppy, and their speeds are inconsistent.
Might there be a specific settings or value I can change or adjust that could be affecting this? Perhaps it has to do with vertical sync. Maybe the kernel is disabling this for battery sake.
I'm going to look into this, but as I do, let this be the place for anyone to share, complain, agree, or resolve or expound upon this particular issue.

I'm running the latest Sensei and I've not even experienced any lags or stuttering, have you rebooted the phone and are you decrypted?

I don't know much about the specific custom kernels, but i always find the ones that don't use mpdecision or some sort of CPU boost aren't as quick and smooth in my experience

You may be right. I waa using Intelliplug on Sensei. I should try using Sensei again and keep mpdecision enabled. Thats probably what Lollipop's "smootheness API's" were built for.

reset up your phone, cpu speed and governor.scheduler. i always disable mpdecision, so i can run my cpu speed. if you dont disable mpdecision, then you can not set your cpu speed, as mpdecision will change it. no lagginess or choppiness here.

laggy phone why???

its strange or its the same for everybody or just for me .
i have the exinos version and my phone and all galxy phone i had got the same lagg for years
if i use the infinity wall paper i got no lag but if i change the wall paper for home screen and for lock screen the moment i open the lockscreen to hone screen the animation lag again...when i slide the screen to open the phone from lockscreen to home screen isee lag in the animation when i have on the home screen icons its weird do you see that too?

The only slowdown I noticed was when I left my knox-secured folder, like 0,5s lag before it closed. Do you have a branded software or unbranded?

wondering if its not the launcher being throttled. on infinity theme they might have to get it optimized by not letting the system sleep some cores to allow a seemingless experience. when you change to static wallpaper,this optimization is removed to prioritize battery . but as we can see, it would be nice to get at least the same performance on non infinity themes/wallpapers

I disable and/or shorten animations in developer options on every device I have. Makes a difference. On the Note I use pitch black wallpaper from the play store. Keeps it simple and frees up resources. Those animations, etc take more cpu. So I don't use 'em.

Just get Nova Launcher and call it a day. NO lag.

Are you using default theme or some thurd party theme? Incompatible themes can lag phone too.

Unfortunately any third party launcher still hanging or lagging when an incompatible theme used in samsung themes.
Default or some themes seem to help overcome lag specially in exynos note 9.

When the lag observed, open samsung members app n submit feedback as problem. Already submitted once but more submitting gives it high priority to resolve

the funny i notice that if i remove the icons from the home screen and leave only the icon on the docs so thers no lag at all but when thers icons on the home screen the animation from lockscreen to home screen make it lag

Oh, I see. I tend to turn off most animations, or at least set them to 0.25 in the developer options.

updatek i found asolution that will kill all lag between stuff from lockscreen and home screen and beyond
we need to change in developer option only the duration animation to 0.5 little faster and its kill all lag check this lots time not even one lag great!!!!!
but change only the duration cause all the rest animation got no lag :good::good::good:

.25? Where is that?
And I think the OP is trolling. Have you seen the topics he is creating? But his iPhone X doesn't do this.
And I don't know why people keep thinking changing the animation duration to a lower setting gets rid of lag. It is just an option to cover up all latencies interacting with phone and to give it a little flair. Changing the animation timing doesn't do anything for lag. If anybody wants to argue the point change the timing higher and use for awhile and then go back to a lower setting.

Sorry, my memory failed me. I guess it's only 0.5.
Changing the animation definitely APPEARS to make things faster and less laggy. Whether it's placebo or not, I'm not sure.

Samsung always has a form of lag. Its in their DNA

Facing this lag from day one.
Somehow the default theme helped a bit but I am still not convinced n Samsung shall provide fix for lag.

Most likely everyone is experiencing similar thing but you just have a very low tolerance for "lag".

Hmmm, its actually annoying to see such laggy premium phone.
When samsung account is added, somehow samsung cloud auto sync n auto backup is on. Cloud sync always have additional lags. Disbaling cloud sync or removing samsung account completely seems to help in handling lag.

HI friends,
Just install the HTC Sense 9 ported apps like Sense Home launcher, Weather, clock etc.
Everything will work smoother and faster on this note 9.
