Reboot app? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,

Thanks in advance!

I would love to see them live, they rarely ever tour the states though... I did see Steven Wilson solo for The Raven That Refused to Sing and that was phenomenal! He played well over 2 hrs.

A Perfect Circle/Tool question

Alright guys, im sure almost everyone has heard of A Perfect Circle, or Tool. If you listen to it while you are alone, it can get pretty crazy. So what are some things that you can stare at or do while listening to them? Personally, I like to play the music on my computer, and put the visual designs on fullscreen. Its like tripping out, except your not high.
A compass, ? Elaborate
Anything like iDrug or something however
Any web sites you know of that I can go to that have a fullscreen image of a crazy design that changes and things like that? As in, things like the visuals that computer media players come with
Ahh I see, nope sorry just had a quick google and nothing found
I know most people will disagree, but I love A Perfect Circle. Tool are okay but don't really do it for me as much.
Anyway, go here...
http://www.zoomquilt.org/
Zoom in (Ctrl +) so it fills your browser and go fullscreen (F11). Click and move the mouse cursor up. The only problem is that you need to hold the mouse button down so you can't just sit back and chill.
Edit: Ah yeah - get some Electric Sheep in your life http://electricsheep.org/
Thanks man! thats exactly what i wanted.

Definitely seems like the software was rough, look at how the widgets keep disappearing.
Screen tear, nowt to worry about. Can't wait to feel that hardware in my hands.

I find the review pretty bad to be honest. He didn't double finger scroll down the notification bar, and he said you needed 1 more step vs the other LG model.
Since JB/ICS I never been able to long press homescreen to add widgets...
The display size on the Nexus 4 is 4.7 inches INCLUDING the menu buttons or EXCLUDING menu buttons?
Won't stop me from getting the phone despite the fact that i'm not too into the 3 menu screen button.
The buttons are on screen, so part of the 4.7.

It seems like his review unit is running the oldest software we have seen so far, even photosphere is missing.
Phone seems very smooth and fast looking at this ... but was I the only one who got bored of the guy talking lol

Even Chris Pirillo fell for that 'lag' exercise/flicking the screen when showing the N4 versus iPhone...I'm like..HELLO! WHO the f uses their phone that way!?! No one. Period. It's a stupid exercise that proves nothing. Compare the units in NORMAL navigation, and you MIGHT detect smoother operation, but I detect it as SLOWER operation.

Yeah gotta love the videos that list specs, or just has a person ranting off to the camera.... Um there are better formats, like text & pictures for those kinds of things. Keep up the reviews, It'll keep me busy until my ordered N5 ships.

Videos of Keyboard Lag

I managed to upload some videos of the incredibly annoying typing lag I experience on my Note5. I've got the running process showing and you can see how weird the keypresses get at the end of each one.
Here they are:
https://youtu.be/eQ-HgtMmCFg
https://youtu.be/yW970htrhU8 (Note the touches keep going while all keypress popups and text entry stops.)
https://youtu.be/NRuLXa6m3mA
Does anyone else experience this?
Here http://i.imgur.com/6zcUZ17.png is a nice screen shot showing just how annoying the overlaping stuff can be.
Any help is appreciated.
I know it's annoying having an issue list this out of the box, but no one claims Samsung is good a developing software. I'd say go for a 3rd party keyboard. I'm using Google's and it's smooth as butter.

Wow. I'd say root and flash a ROM and kernel, but if you're having these issues while stock, who's to say you won't have other issues after rooting? Unfortunately I'm not sure what else to do. Sorry, man. I hope you get it worked out.

Hey First of~~ Mine is s6e+ I have heard that issue from s6e+ users too(with swype keyboard). I would suggest you to turn off keyboard Pop upping but that would be odd If you like it..(I like when it pops up)~
Im using Touchpal for long years, and can prefer you to try(If not) and recorded a >>VIDEO<< to show how it works on mine anyway.. Lol ignore the background music etc.. Good luck.

And driving while posting on XDA? He's better off just leaving the phone plugged in at home before he causes an accident.
