Hi, there's one thing I don't like in the galaxy note: I noticed that the scrolling speed of lists or any screen isn't natural, it's faster than my finger.
Probably Samsung did it because it has a wide screen so we don't need to make too wide gestures, but I don't like it. I have big hands and I would prefer a natural scrolling speed (1x).
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks

Compared to the iPhone, the Diamond's screen rotation in a browser is VERY slow....almost not worth it. Any tweaks found to speed this up to be closer to the speed of the iPhone?
I can see that part of the problem is Opera's need to relayout the entire page whenever the screen rotates or you ZOOM IN with the thumb wheel. It gets really irritating with the zooms cause you loose the content which you're zooming in on.
On a side note I just want to rant about all these auto rotating devices,
"Damn all you guys!! Don't you know that some of use would like to have landscape mode while lying in bed? So until you can make a tilt sensor that can read my mind and determine wheter or not I WANT to rotate the device, give us a MANUAL SWITCH!"
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

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'

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.
I just upgraded from a Galaxy Tab (original) to a Nexus 7, and while most everything else is a sweet upgrade, scrolling has become a consistently frustrating experience.
On my Galaxy Tab (Gingerbread), scrolling is simple and intuitive. I "flick" my finger across the screen and it scrolls fast (even if it might be too fast sometimes) and the inertia continues the way I would expect (more like Froyo as opposed to iOS), and swiping scrolls as fast as I swipe no matter how long I press my finger to the screen. However, on the Nexus 7, if I flick, sometimes it flicks fast, sometimes it flicks very slow, and sometimes it comes to a dead stop when I release my finger. If I swipe, it behaves better, but doesn't seem to go the speed of my finger unless I hold it down longer. I feel like a little kid trying to get a toy to work. It's not intuitive, and I'm not sure if the problem is the design of Jelly Bean or the Nexus 7's hardware, or the device has a manufacturing defect. As a comparison, the homescreens flick and swipe appropriately most of the time. Apps seem to have the same scrolling frustrations for me as the browser and settings lists.
Can someone tell me how Jelly Bean is supposed to work with flicking and swiping? What about in apps like Chrome, games like Devil's Attorney, or settings lists? Also, the homescreens.
If can adjust Android's default scrolling speed and inertia (and swiping and flicking responsiveness) through root, I'll do that, but I'm not sure there's anything else I can do before that.
Just saw this today, have not tried it yet myself but it sounds like this is what you are looking for.

hi,
Is there any way to reduce scrolling speed in the P10? It's just way too fast, you just either keep your finger on the screen or you swipe and it goes all the way down the page. In the P8 I has more control, slower swipe would mean slower scrolling, faster swipe - faster scrolling. Also slowing down was very linear. There's no such thing in the P10, if I want to go to something in the middle of the page "slow swipe" doesn't make any difference - it scrolls through 95% of the page and then quickly slows down near the end. It's not linear at all. And I'm not talking only about third party apps, same applies to the settings or multitasking menu.
I am currently resisting an upgrade, most of reviews are just give you 10 new changes but hardly anyone talks about any missing features.
Anyone can provide their list of Pros & Cons?
if none of the issues raised in some of the threads are a problem as they were not for me then go for PIE

faster, smoother (after 14 days to settle down), 10% higher GPU scores on average from diff test/games from the new driver, better CPU management (still far from the maximum possible tho), better single hand usage, better portrait typing (the keyboard is lifted, my hands don't hurt anymore when typing a lot in portrait), overall the one UI is good, battery life is a little bit less for me - most likely because of the new CPU control for more performance, multiwindow is killed - it's like the google stock solution (no swipe from corner to pop-out, no fast split scree with swipe up recents and hold, no menu between the split apps so you can't switch their place without cutting youtube video etc, no hold down from recents to quickly popout or split - you need the stupid menu), sound system is worse and not following google compatibility guide (if it was not samsung, google would not let them cert that version as it won't pass their checklist) - leading to worse audio from something like poweramp hi-res + I feel overall the sound is worse vs oreo (both speakers and headphones). Overall a worth update, because of the single hand usage and the pure smoothness/speed... but it's not a pure WIN-WIN.
I use multi window, edge panel, resize window and good lock
Looks like pie is not for me and I dont have any issues with Oreo
Probably will stick with that
Yeah, I'd say you're just going to get the same responses that are in the other half dozen similar threads. Personally I love Pie. There's a minority that doesn't. Every single one of them started s thread to ask others if they also disliked it and wanted to downgrade.
