Touchscreen slowness

Ok so i am trying to determine what my problem is.. here are the symptoms. When i try and end a call i sometimes have to press multiple times or deliberately press and hold the end button and sometimes it doesn't respond pretty much at all. Also i am using go launcher and when i press icons that are in the dock bar they have the same issues. I also have similar issues when i text it's really annoying so is anyone else have similar issues?

Same here. I've noticed that to hang up it takes a deliberate double tap. Also, the screen will sometimes become inoperable requiring a reboot. This has happened three times since first getting it. One note if that out happened twice stock, and once with decrapped 1.1
Any body else seen this?

I haven't seen it anywhere else, but I have seen the double tap on the end button to end a call. Seems to happen frequently. A "feature?"
Either way, it's annoying.
Running Go Launcher as well.

To me, it seems like it takes the screen a really long time to wake up from being off, in all cases - for example, dial voicemail and put the phone to your ear. When you get the prompt to put in your PIN, take it away and the screen comes on, try to punch the dialpad button immediately and it just won't work. I tried it as I was writing this and had to triple tap the button.
Same thing with the lockscreen (still on the stock lockscreen for now). The screen will wake up and it takes a second or two to even start to register finger swipes. It's really annoying...
Speaking of phone lockup, I received a call a few days ago and the phone froze - I couldn't answer the call, or do anything, all the while the phone just kept ringing. Had to pull the battery. I'm still on the stock ROM.

Me too! I had a call and it froze. Battery pull as well. Also, forgot to mention I am using open home launcher.

Yep it's a bug either in LG's function to turn on and off the screen in Android, or the kernel drivers that enable/disable the touchscreen. There is about a 1 second delay to it.
I discovered this lovely bug while porting the AOSP lockscreen mod.
I'll run some more tests to see whether it's an android bug or a kernel bug. I'm betting it's android (something like the screen being turned on before the touch controller has had time to reinitialize itself, or something more complicated like a race condition of some kind...)
Either way, with cm7 around the corner, I don't think it's that big of a bug

Errrr Are you sure the Revo is getting CyanogenMod 7? Where did you hear this and more importantly when will we get it?

Since he is the one working on getting it ported over, I think he has the best idea, and the only rule of cm is no asking for etas ;-)

4.2 gets stuck I'm deep sleep, could it be the case?

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, and its getting very frustrating. Last night my N7 shut down from low battery, after plugging in, it still wouldn't start up. I got it going again holding firm the power and volume button, but now it's constantly either freezing during use, slightly after startup or not turning on at all after gong to sleep.
I factory reset and that seems to have fixed the lockup issue but it's still getting stuck in deep sleep. The only thing I can guess is that it's the magnet feature in my case that is causing it. I've now had the case off for about an hour and had no lockups.
I've never felt the need to root this thing but I'm thinking of routing and fling to a custom 4.1.2 to see if this fixed it.
Has anyone heard of or had this issue before?

More: its got nothing to do with the case, I've had multiple lockups over the past hour and now a isn't even get past the lock screen without it locking up. Only setting I changed was killing the auto brightness.
No one else is having issues like this?

moto x active display now works for s4.. wow..

I iust found this and I thought ill share it with the wonderful people at xda for always helping me why not share . Feel me I dont know if theres another thread for this but hey . Any way I had a chance to play with the moto x and its okay . Lets put it like this its not a s4 . Lol. However I did like this active display which show your notifications as they pop in . Almost like a lock screen but better in my veiw . Take a look for your self heres the link.....

The great thing is that it works for our phone it also help with battery life thats a plus . Enjoy . Let me know what ya think.
Peace .
O.Nice a Galaxy S4

Not sure how this would actually help with battery life as it actually turns on the screen which is a major power drainer as opposed to just turning on the Led which is what happens by default. With that being said I do love this app for phones that do not have an led indicator. I use this on my blu life play and it does help with getting notified especially when your phone is on silent . I think one obvious feature it is missing is the ability to "pulse" the notifications periodically cause as it stands right now the screen lights up and if you aren't staring directly at your phone you will miss it. And you are back to pressing a button to turn the screen on and check. With the s4 its not that big of an issue cause the led will continue to pulse as it would anyway. So although its kind of gimmicky I would see it consuming more battery on the s4 than by just turning on the led. If the whole point it just to get notified when some actionable item has happened than a simple led is best. Rather than a screen that lights up only momentarily then never to be seen again.

Well not really cause in the app it self you could set how long you want it to stay on. Plus I'm one that dont like led I hate to see that light flash plus it dont show you your message just saying. Lol. And being that is black with white letter consume less battery. And instead of going in your phone you could read a brief detail of your messages and emails with out go in your to phone ,,unlock your phone sliding your bar down and then clicking it to go in your app then your app has to load which is quick but more step to see your messages here you could just quick veiw. I always have my phone on ten mins cause I hate for my phone to turn off plus I always turn it off when im not using it and I get great battery life doing that with it being ten mins that app will stay on as long as you have your system time out set plus you could set a sound for it too so you dont miss it. So in alot of way its great once again in my view. And yeah never to be seen again..lol.. that needs to get updated . But its a work in progress. Lol

It doesn't turn on the whole screen. With AMOLED screens, the black pixels are completely off and aren't using any power. The only pixels drawing power are the ones you see. An LCD screen, on the other hand, is drawing tons of power even if it's displaying an all-screen. Having an AMOLED screen is what makes this feature practical.

On our galaxy S4 s we have the Quick Glance feature anyway so that works for me. I think its actually better than this app because u can have the screen light up when u need it, with a quick wave over the device itself, and not just once after receiving the message, email or etc.. No offense to the Dev its awesome for phones that don't have a led notifier or the Quick Glance feature. Keeps up the development it helps lots of people thou.

That, and the fact that it takes a couple seconds to activate the quick glance feature. I found that it was quicker to just unlock the phone and look at it.

**** I installed this stupid app and now I cant uninstall it anyone know how to uninstall

[Q] Note 3 screen wont turn off

As stated, screen will not go off via timeout or power button tap. Power button is recognized and will bring up shut down menu like normal.
Device is rooted (thanks DG) and had been running well for over a week. Defrosted all apps from tibu in case I got over zealous but no better. A factory reset has not cleared it up either. Hoping the oneclick from the root package will correct the issue, but thats not until I get home later this evening.
Has anyone experienced / recovered from this issue?
Smart stay is turned off

I've had noticeable lag like a few seconds and sometimes I wonder if it's going to shut off but it always does. Better set a dark lock screen wallpaper to conserve your battery

I know this is kind of basic, but what is your setting here:

Thanks for the thoughts.
I had already gone through the standard - double check the settings, remove recent apps. When all that failed and a factory reset still didn't clear it up I was beginning to worry about some kind of hardware damage (don't see how since I treat it better than my child ).
Fortunately the one click from the root seems to have restored proper operation. Back to rooting and rebuilding!

I'm having the same problem, I rooted through vroot.... what do you mean one click fixed it little my incite would be helpful....
thank you

Mine just did this, scared the hell out of me It also didn't go into deep sleep before it started. (Not rooted).
Pulled the battery, waited 30 seconds, plugged it back in.... same thing. Waited a few minutes, seems to have sorted itself out.
Scary....

This is definitely a software bug and it is related to the Headphone detection bug that people are having too (it's actually the same bug causing both issues). This happens to me quite often after I restart my phone. It's kind of like the phone hangs during the startup process. I've also noticed that the wifi/bluetooth status that was present before restarting the phone (i.e. whether they on/off) doesn't get applied until the bug sorts itself out.
For me sometimes this works: open an app like Chrome and then hit the home button to get back to your launcher. This works 95% of the time for me. I'm wondering if it has something to do with not having Touchwiz set as the default launcher.

I'm experiencing this same problem. If I don't manually turn the screen off by tapping the power button, the screen will not timeout.

Screen wake up issue ?

My wife's S5 fails to wake up after multiple home button or side button presses. Sometimes takes a lot of tries!
Anyone else ?
HTC UltimEight ??

Not experiencing anything like that here. Wakes up the first click every time.

I have this problem too. Are you running ART?

Had the same issue this morning. Took a minute for it to come on.

I did notice a HUGE decrease in wake-up performance while messing with the lockscreen "effects". It seems either using no effect to unlock it, or the watercooler is the fastest (which I like the best anyway).
Also, try turning off the help information and the additional information (such as the weather). The lockscreen weather will effect wake-up time due to it trying to refresh when you wake-up the phone.

I experienced this issue running ART. Been on dalvik since last night and haven't noticed it yet, but it hasn't been long enough to be definitive.

Wow you guys are onto something.
I indeed switched to ART.
Well going back to dalvik to see if it stops.
Thanks guys

2 days with mine and I have noticed this several times, some KK custom ROMs had a similar issue so it didn't really faze me but it shouldn't be there on a factory ROM. It has always come on after 2-3 pushes but again this is a brand new totally stock device so WTF?
It seems like there is a slight delay between button push and screen light up so pushing it the 2nd time actually turns it off. If I wait a very long second it lights up without multiple pushes.
