[Q] Loading icon and widget very slow on home screen

Stock rom kk1
Stock launcher
RAM : most of the time, Free ram 100~150.
Loading icons and widget on home screen are very slow when returning from an app or from unlocking the phone after a long period of stand-by. (If unlocking the phone after a very short time, it won't happen)
I know some other devices has the same issue. But is anyone using Note has the same issue?
Is it the RAM or the launcher? Any trick or setting to fix it?
I've already used Sparepart and set "Fast" on the window setting.
Some people may said, don't use widget and don't use any live wallpaper. But this is something WE have and not IOS.
I was using Streak 5 with the same problem. I thought it won't happen on Note....but...
Please if anyone can help me out here....

You need to update your ROM to new version first. Then notice RAM usage and performance.

[Q] about widget locker

sometime when i use widget locker to unlock,there are little bit lag
like,when u unlock,will take a few second....but only on GS Note
i'm use GS1(i9000) before,is very smooth when i using widget locker...
is that GS Note problem???because i hear somebody say GS Note's ui system is bad
so,have some patch to solve my problem??THX!!!!

That's because the Note goes to deep sleep when you lock the screen. You can fix this by flashing a different kernel. Check the development section.

I tried it with rocket Rom. It still took a while to unlock. Maybe it because of the app.

I'm using rocker rom v22+abyss kernel3.8,but also have the problem. .....

samsung note 5 [or any other android with large screen] lock screen watch animation

Hi Guys,
Wanted to ask a [probably nub] question:
I have seen the great skins on the various smart watch and wondered if there is any known application that can make my phone act as a watch,
meaning show the time on the lock screen with the ability to mimic an analog watch and to be able to switch between different skins.
I'm a bit afraid to admit that i have searched and could'nt find anything that can do this [and show the actual time]
This is the main reason i was thinking of buying a new smart watch [just because i love the option of switching the way they look]
Please help :-/

Not clear . May be it is 'AOD' feature that you are looking for which is there in couple of Custom ROMs here.

Note 9 Samsung Notes app. Please help

Dear All,
I have been using the Snote apk i got off Sam mobile, but today I started trying Samsung notes. What I can't figure out is, when you use the Create note shortcut (when one comes out) you can expand the new note and write from the very edge of the screen. But when you save it and edit it (or do a new note within the app,) it will not let you write on the edge of the screen. Instead this is used to scroll up and down using the pen. People moaned the Note 8 was not wide enough, and I agreed. I think the Note 9 does feel wider.....but then they limit your writing width space by giving you a slider bar! Really! Lol.
Does anyone know if you can turn the slider off? You can go up and down pages on everything else without the need for a side slider on both sides of the screen!
Many thanks.
Matthew

This seems to be just what Samsung decided on margins (there's the same blank space on the left too) ... if you go in the "Brush" tab you get edge to edge again, but then it is added to the note as an inserted image with those same margins. I don't see, or have ever read of a way to turn this off or adjust margin width.
This isn't an issue for me as I don't really go the far to the edge- pen often slips off edge if I get too close to the curve. Plus, I prefer S-Note which doesn't have these margins.
Sorry, this isn't much help... maybe go back to S-Note (there is an official apk on the Galaxy App Store)?

Hi - no thats ok, thank you for replying! S-note is good, and i have used it always on the note 8, its only trouble is, the pen is way less reponsive with s-note in comparison with Samsung notes - so its a shame. Its not the end of the world.
thanks though.

I guess it's a case of personal preference. I find the Samsung notes a downgrade from the S-note and was a shame that Samsung removed the creative features of the S-note app (photo note, idea sketch, easy chart etc). The device is made complete by the software so I cant see the sense in removing useful software which was productivity enabled! I have all these features enabled however (thanks to the guys here) so perhaps you might feel differently if u had those features enabled on the S-note. I know there is a Note 8 thread somewhere and this was discussed and resolved.

Question How to get smaller display scaling (than stock)?

Sorry to come with such a seemingly stupid question, but I'm at a loss on how to fix my issue.
I recently switched from a OnePlus 6 to the S21U and find that everything on my S21U is way too big. I went into options and already changed the screen size and font size to the smallest options, but it's still larger than I like, and fewer items fit on my screen than I'm used to.
Google doesn't provide me any good results, since the results are polluted by the available options or camera zoom.
Is there a way to change display scaling even further, e.g. via a mod? My phone is rooted and I have installed Dr. Ketan's ROM which includes some version of Xposed.
