Unresponsive to touch??

So today my n3 is getting laggy and the screen isn't responding to touch at times. Have restated a few times and tried clearing default launcher from Nova to tw. Doing it on both at times and tw even gave me a fc as well.
Any thoughts?

If only that simple. It's been rooted for weeks(about as month) and with xposed. Today is the first instance of it. Seems turning power saving mode of seemed to help some but still occurring. Example is when playing subway surfer can't move the guy or anything. Went into task manager ram getting near 2gb and cleared that. But nothing really in active to justify why so much ramgetting used up.
Re read mine. When I said "just" I meant that is the only thing done to our. Haven't tried SS or rom yet

flashing to stock rom and reset binary

Just one more thought, is your phone in a case and does the case have a wide border? If the border touches the display it could register as a touch and confuse your device. if it is touching in too many places such as 5 then your touch would be ignored. This could be caused by temperature changes making the case expand and contract, it also could just be you handling the case and putting pressure in certain places while trying to use it. This is just a though though as I had a similar issue on another phone once.

Thanks. The case is the Samsung s-view I think. The one with the Window screen when you flip it close. Have had it on since owned a well.
I'm guessing the only other option would be to flag back to stock and then re rooting again?
So here is my odd question if do. Mine came stock with mi9 and I rooted with dlv then did the ota trick to mj5 and kept root. Would I need to find how to go back to mi9 or would I be able to Odin to a stock mj5? That's something I'm not 100% on atm

[Q] TW stopping working, unfortunately

Hello!
TW stops working several times a day, I've haven't managed to narrow down the apps that might crash it (unless everything I use on the phone crashes it). It sometimes crashes in the home screen, in Chrome, in YouTube. The two apps I use the most are WhatsApp and Facebook, and it has crashed when I'm using them, too.
I have the habit of pressing the home button to leave an app, and the phone always takes a little bit to reload all the icons. I know TW lags and stutters for many, this is not a complaint but an observation. I used phase beam as the wallpaper before, so I changed it to a solid black picture. That hasn't helped.
My phone is not rooted, though processes unused are stopped in App Manager.
Any assistance and suggestion would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Reset phone
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Hey guys,
I am facing the same issue, where TW crashes and I receive the message that TW has stopped working, however in my case it happens each time I reboot the phone. Once I OK the error message, TW reloads, and remains stable until I next reboot my baby, which I tend to do once a day, for good measure. This is not the end of the world, something I can live with, yet I do find it irritating that I cannot figure out what is causing this.
Anyone with a suggestion would be greatly appreciated. FYI, I am running stock at the moment.
Regards,
Raziel

I'd be tempted to odin to stock or flash firekat.

Raziel, I cleared TW cache and then wiped the cache partition earlier this afternoon. It seems TW hasn't crashed as often as it usually does, but it has crashed. It might remedy your problem, though, if you haven't tried this already. I'm avoiding resetting my phone.

If you rooted and tw goes crazy on you something went wrong. Delete everything you got. Turn of antivirus software. Download everything. Start by going back to stock then update then root then your good to go. If you start with a bad hicupp it will just keep getting worse.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

ChinWonder dude! Thanks a bunch for this suggestion... I cleared TW cache in Application Manager, then booted into Recovery and proceeded with wiping the cache partition. Honestly I feel like a bit of a noob right now LOL, I should have thought about this myself!! But hey thanks nevertheless, much obliged .
BACARDILIMON, as stated above by the OP, ChinWonder, as well as myself, in both cases the devices are not rooted. Thanks for the effort though . I'd like to add however that all of my previous and current Androids (S2, S3 and Nexus 7 2013) have been rooted, and in the last 2 cases, on day 1... hell I even made my own custom ROM for the S3 based on stock Bell 4.1.1 and stayed on it despite several available upgrades, I was getting such good performance and battery out of it, and FULL compatibility since I used a firmware base from my carrier, which is not the case for most custom ROMs found here, since none of them (or close to) are using Bell, but AT&T in most cases. From my experiences, I was always getting issues receiving voicemail notifications when using those. Long story short, I have been on the flashing bandwagon for a few years now, and tweaking the hell out of all my devices up to now, but this time, I feel this is the perfect (ok nothing is perfect) smartphone for me, as is, stock, and it performs like no other device I've had until now, and battery is just incredible!! getting regularly well over a day of charge, mostly average 36 hours, with 6 to 8 hours screen on time!!! WOW!!! seriously for the time being, I don't feel I want to root and flash and all that jazz, but instead I just want to enjoy this beast, the way Samsung thought of it, for a little while.
Again ChinWonder, thanks!

Just upgraded to Note 4, should I upgrade to Lollipop?

Hey guys. Just got my Note 4 (in white, I love it). Just finished setting everything up. Now I'm wondering whether I should upgrade to Lollipop. Basically I don't want to upgrade if there are any major bugs or other issues that sometimes pop up with firmware updates.
Or if someone can point me to the Lollipop upgrade thread because I couldn't find one.

In the poprocks thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...procks-rom-v1-tw-rom-bases-tmo-stock-t3096286
I found the stock COD6 download https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952595535
I (not actually me, she) just got the note4 and I'm wondering the same thing. It came with NK4, I rooted and TWRPed and it's running stock 4.4.4. I have a Sprint S5 that's been running 4.4.2 since February and it's stable as hell.

I can talk about stock,since I have to stay that way for work purposes. 5.0.1 is ever so slightly faster. For me battery is about the same. I had to full wipe 3 times to get it to minimise bugs. Keyboard hangs about 2-3 times a day. About twice a month the phone will all of a sudden really lag or reboot when waking while it's reconnecting to data. About once a month I find I have to wipe cache partition because it'll start getting "buggy." That seems to keep it at least functioning normal for a few weeks.

Help - Phone Randomly Powering Down

Hi Everyone
Bit of help please.
Having problems over the last 20 days or so. The phone keeps powering down completely at random.
I had flashed No Root Stock Debloated/Deodexed N6 ViPER|Atmos Audiophile 1.6 and after a week the above started.
Fully wiped (including data) the N6 and re-installed from a OTG USB through TWRP. After a week the same random shut-downs began again.
Another full wipe and installed ver 1.7 from the above and within a couple of days the shutdowns started again.
Today thought a different ROM may be the answer. Full wipe and tried [MMB29U/Q][6.0.1][STOCK][OMNI][MOKEE][CMTE][LAYERS] FLUENCE HD9 and the shut-downs are still here.
Seems to be getting worse.
Not using layers or anything abnormal - nova launcher and popular apps, nothing strange. No Kernel optimizations.
Really stumped as to what I have done. Wondering if I have a HW fault rather than custom rom or apps. Going to un-root, lock the BL and give Google stock image a go, unless anyone has a suggestion.
TIA

Any water damage that you can think of? Any parts of the phone getting extremely hot?
You could try ordering a new battery, and see if that fixes the issue, as it is not a software issue.

I'm also having a similar issue, but it occurs when trying to open camera and having relatively low charges(%20). I could not pinpoint my issue exactly but generally complete shutdowns caused by battery problems(temperature, voltage, mis-feedback). Like flyeyes says it is probably a defected battery unit.

Grab some logcats or a crash message. Without them the only thing I can advise is that it is one of your apps causing it or a hardware issue.

Have you tried complete stock firmware from Google with no customizations? If so, does it happen then? If it happens on complete stock from Google you might be looking at a hardware issue. If it only happens on custom ROMS after you set them up, then it might be an inconsistency with whatever apps/changes you make to it.

Nexus 6 requires rebooting every day or so as it slows down to become unusable

I have a N6 purchased Dec 2015 new from Amazon. The only mods, if you can call it that is, I have unlocked the boot loader. I am currently running N6F26Y sideloaded via ADB.
The phone was great when I first got it but now after about a day or so of usage it becomes slow and sluggish and unresponsive I have to restart it to use it. I have done a factory reset a couple of times which gets it back to normal for a week or so and then the problem recurs. Occasionally I will delete the cache which also helps. Snapchat is one of the worse apps - crashes the phone regularly and is a very slow app.
Also the camera can get very slow often taking seconds to take one photo.
I love the phone but it's becoming unusable now. The contrast between this and a new phone (I have purchased a Moto Z) is like night and day. The Moto Z runs instantly, has no lag and is a nice phone. But what I like about the N6 is the large screen which makes it great for videos etc.
Short of perhaps flashing some custom ROM is there anything I could be doing?

I'd recommend flashing a rom like pure nexus, super stable that should fix your problem, otherwise you've done all you can and is the easiest fix

Hello,
It seems like some apps are really slowing down your phone. I use my N6 at home for web browsing mostly as I have a Pixel XL now. Just like you I love the screen size.
The camera has always been slow fore, because of the time it takes to focus...
Did you try using your phone a few days without Snapchat installed? Maybe you also have other misbehaving​ apps installed.
Uninstall Snapchat and other apps and start from here. Reinstall one per one with a few days interval. See if the issue still occurs.
Installing a custom ROM + kernel will likely speed up things a little bit. I second @Dugaldrob with Pure Nexus and I'd suggest ElementalX kernel on top. Running this combo on N6, N6P and Pixel XL and they work flawlessly.
I don't believe installing a custom ROM alone will fix your issue though. Stock ROM shouldn't cause the phone to slow down to the point you need to reboot to use it.
Finding the culprit will...
Good luck...

First step is to remove Snapchat. I rarely use the app and only because my daughter sends stuff on it. I am going to tell her to send me stuff via another method
If that doesn't work then it's a new ROM. I have performed ROM installs before but have never flashed a new kernel on a phone before so that will be a new experience. Hopefully I won't brick the phone

Hello,
Don't worry, it's really easy. Also, if you are lost, there must be a ton of tutorials in general section. If you are lost yet, just ask and someone will point you in the right direction...
Good luck...

I've been running Pure Nexus and wanted to let peeps know I put Nitrogen on and man it's so smooth, my wifi tether is back and I went to sleep last night with 50% battery still. When I installed it I opted for the nano gapps I think so like 175mb for minimal apps and maybe that's why it's running so efficient. Maybe I could have re-installed Pure Nexus with a clean install and it would have gotten better but it was a good time to try something else. Also when Nitrogen got an update I was notified just like stock and it downloaded. I didn't even know these could do that. Anyways give it a try and you might just switch back. I was looking into new phones but if it keeps working so smooth with battery longer than a day then I'm fine for now.

Snap chat is not that big of an issue. What I have found to cause the device to slow down is normally almost full device storage and a crappy cache release code in apps. Some apps don't release their cache properly. So it causes lag. This is why a reboot seems to fix it.
While a custom rom may fix this issue it is not the solution. The proper solution is to find what is causing it and fix/repair/ditch it.
Worst offenders for crappy code in my thoughts. Other will disagree with one on this list I am sure. So don't bother. I know people swear by it. It runs like crap for me at times and causes my whole device to lag until I close it out.
1 Facebook
2 FB messenger
3 Google Chrome ( don't do it lol)
4 whatsapp
5 Hangouts
Mind you this is just a list on my usage. It may very per user and even device (considering different hardware)

I can confirm this, because I've removed these apps (-whatsapp) and also decrypted the data partition...
My N6 is fast.
Maybe a lite stock ROM and an other kernel is a good start.

Currently I have FB, FB messenger, and Chrome but when I installed gapps I chose a super lite install so tons of bloat and google apps were not installed and my battery has gone way up and it's so smooth. I'm sure even when we don't use apps they're always doing something in the background. I bet you're right and a stock lite ROM would be good too with the minimal bs apps.

Thanks for the advice. Of the list of apps above I have only Chrome and Hangouts. I really can't see replacing either of them.
I also should have pointed out that the phone locks up randomly requiring a hard reset. I wonder if an errant app could cause that or I have some RAM problem. Certainly on a PC bad RAM can use in Windows a blue screen or something but perhaps Android isn't so forgiving?

I would flash TWRP, flash supersu in TWRP to root, make a complete backup in twrp, then remove whatever Google apps you're not using with a system app removal app. Getting some of that bloat off the device should help. If it's still laggy, then look into a custom ROM. I run Tesla on my Nexus 6 with none of the issues you're having. I don't decrypt it either

Running abdroid 7.1 here. I dont get any slowdowns, at leas until the battery doesnt drop below 50 and 25 percent.
Im running a custom kernel and my phone is rooted. Everything else is stock.

Can you flash a custom kernel and presumably TWRP without wiping the phone? If so then might try that before a custom ROM

Hello,
Since your bootloader is unlocked, flash TWRP and install the kernel, no problem.
Might give you a slight boost at first sight, but your device will likely slow down over time anyway...
Cheers...

I'm on 7.0 with the April SP. I have dozens of apps installed, including Hangouts. I use Firefox for browsing, I like it better than chrome (and you can install an ad blocker).
My camera slows down when the battery is under 40%, and the whole device slows dramatically, though not unusable, at or below 5%. But otherwise, no issues what so ever.
One solution that I have not seen suggested here is resetting the device and NOT taking the Google account backup of all your apps. I would suggest making a completely clean install of the factory rom you have and installing one or two apps at a time, most important to you first. And do this for a few days/weeks until you find the app that's misbehaving.
Although there are general bad players out there, this bad app could be unique to your device. Just because all devices of the same model have the same specs and components, doesn't mean that there isn't variability in parts quality.
I would do this before trying any new roms or kernels. Find the true problem first.
Good luck!
edit:
I had another idea: Go into your battery stats and network stats and storage stats and see if any app seems to be using too much of any, or all of the 3. This may get you the answer more quickly.
