Note 5 emoji Lag - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Is it only me or the emoji scroll is really laggy...
Is there something to fix it ?
Thanks

Up

Yeah, kind of laggy too here, try another keyboard and sorta fixed it.

Hi.
Which keyboard ? I tried plenty of those available in the play store non work out for me:\

Im from iphone 6. All i liked in note 5 is beautiful display and vibartion feedback.
But performance wise? This phone is lowest side of android.
People says it performs well in stock apps. But im not from those who run only stock apps.
I mean do we dont have right to run app even facebook?
Facebook youtube and all apps are laggy like 6 year android phone.

With me its happened randomly a few times like ill exit an app then when i swipe through the home screen its really jerky. my unit isnt rooted, everything stock even the launcher.
So yeah if anyone has experienced it post BELOWWWWWWWW (ray william johnson voice) lol.
Just wanted to add this link http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=37258 for people to visit to help raise awareness to Google about the issue.
Have you gotten the latest update?

Make sure you aren't using a 3rd party rotation app such as 'Ultimate Rotation Control'
also please update to 4.1.1
Not a single issue here... Google accomplished project butter in my opinion...
You may have an issue with the Tablet...
You'll find that the best way to make your case is to take a video of it, so we don't have to rely on your word alone.

Trust me I wouldn't make this up. And your right but every time it happened I was no where near my phone. Yeah it was updated to 4.1.1. I've read a review in this thread about his not that smooth as well. I'd say download a few apps and try make it multi-task and let me know.

Who knows, you could have a defective unit. Probably not though, so maybe your best bet is keep your phone nearby for when it happens again. The only lag I'm willing to admit at this point is the stock keyboard and swiftkey, if you're a speedy typer. However, if you turn off "spell checker" (ridiculous that they haven't fixed it yet), then you should be fine.
No lag here, try a factory reset, i usually do a factory reset on all my new devices before setting them up.

My nexus 7 was lagging too, it was after i installed this one app. I uninstalled the app and it would still lag but only on the homescreen. I removed the play store media widget and the lag disappeared. I have about 8 widgets (constantly refreshing) and a live wallpaper and still lag free. If you still have that default media widget, try removing it.
Though I still see lag, mostly when im downloading apps or they're installing but once the app is done downloading/installiung the lag goes away. This same issue happens on pretty much every android device i've ever owned, even happens on my iphone so not a big deal.
I have this issue as well. The two times I noticed it I was browsing with chrome and the scrolling started to lag. I exited the app but I would still have lag throughout the device; it would also not recognize my touch all the time, I would have to click something multiple times. Not sure whats causing it.

I'm getting some lag too... Tomorrow I should receive my other unit from Google and ill try them both. It's sad cause my dual core nexus performs better
It lags because of the poor memory (poor i/o). This happened on the Transformer prime, the memory limited the device speed and lags when your either installing an app, uni stalling or transferring.
Also don't forget that especially on the first day tons of stuff gets synced in the background. When I setup my new devices the first day is almost laggy for some hours until all syncs are done.
Tegra devices doesn't have the greatest memory bandwith.

I been getting a lot of lag after playing any heavy game. N64oid Max Payne shadowgun gta3. I always have to reboot or the tablet is unusable. Its not really lag though its more like the touch screen only works 10 percent of the time you touch it until I reboot. Like if i try to drag an app around the desktop it just keeps dropping like I lifted my finger up. And it does it in any app after even if I kill all in memory. And I had mine since Friday its happened almost everytime.

Not seeing it here with Nexus 7 plugged into wall and switching between the built-in apps and also downloaded apps such Glow Ball, Soulcraft THD Beta, Google Voice, etc.
Are you guys seeing this with it running off of battery (possibly power profile/CPU throttling) or plugged in?

Chrome is horrible compared to the aosp browser

Chrome is way slower and the drawing lags badly on scrolling compared to the aosp browser. There's one to. On here that uses the aosp browser. Its so much smoother and faster. Unfortunately autorotation does not work on that ROM. Why did Google make chrome the default?

Try a rom with the stock browser. It benchmarks higher and it never has to load more of the page when scrolling.
Its the same way on the galaxy nexus. They just let you choose in that case which to use.

Don't have experience yet with my nexus 7 but chrome is horrible on the galaxy nexus. It is awful at text reflow on this phone. Hopefully it will be better on the tablet.

Unfortunately its the same garbage on this tablet. It was really stupid of Google to make chrome the default and not include the aosp browser. I tried the aosp browser and its butter smooth with zero lag. Chrome on the other hand is a complete lagfest.

On my phone I use opera mobile. Better than stock in my opinion. I just like the chrome sync.

Whenever they let us download the old browser from Play somebody let me know. I don't mind Chrome as a backup but I don't like it as my primary either
**Edit. If you have root give this a shot.

Google said we could download it from Play already they just havent put it up somebody else can look up a source for you cause I dont feel like it right now
Yes...Chrome definitely blows for Android. Sad really. Chrome to phone and all the syncing options are really nice, but the browser itself is just awful. Hoping Google really gives this some love soon b/c as others have said, the stock regular browser that has been on Android forever is so much nicer.
Just by watching videos, I can already tell that I hate the Chrome browser. It can have a horrendous amount of lag, and it is extremely annoying having to watch reviews that show this sub-par browsing experience when I know for a fact that all of this dreadful performance could be alleviated by switching to the AOSP browser. Google quite obviously did this to promote their browser, but it does not do good for the Nexus 7 image.
Hmm have you guys fully updated your n7's? Chrome is blazing fast for me. Haven't had a single issue with it except for Swype entering spaces after every letter in the address bar sometimes.
on my GNex, ICS Browser+ (basically stock ICS browser with some additions) was smoother than Chrome.
it crashes now on JB though.

Negative, been trying this all day. I don't mind chrome. The syncing with the desktop, phone, and tablet is ****ing awesome. Everything else is just ehh. I don't care much for opera or dolphin so I have been searching for all day for a browser apk or browsergoogle apk that will work but to no avail

Yeah there's one rom with it but they forgot to include the blobs for the rotation sensor so it doesn't work. The aosp browser works great though.

That's because it needs the stock browser to work I think. At least that is how it works on my HTC One X. If I freeze the stock HTC browser, ICS + force closes.

Chrome is terribly choppy on the 7. Go to memebase.com and it has massive rendering issues. As long as the website isn't heavy loaded with pictures, chrome is fine.
I need my stock AOSP browser back, Dolphin isn't cutting it

Best browser for nexus 7

Firefox vs chrome vs Dilphin ..
Addons vs speed vs gestures, which is better in ur experience ?
I periodically try the others, but keep going back to Maxthon. Not much in the way of add-ons, but then I don't need much. The built-in "reader" mode works for most sites and gives an easy-to-read, clutter-free experience.
Boat browser, by far.

Firefox beta

Tried a lot of browsers but stock browser is still my favourite by far. Its Quick Controls feature is something I can't live without.
I was actually getting fed up last night with chrome and chrome beta crashing every 2 seconds so i jumped on play store and grabbed a random browser just for fun, i found UC Browser HD and so far i absolutely love it! It works great in portrait and landscape and it feels like it loads pages really quick. Also, i almost forget to mention two finger swipe for adding and closing tabs and a handy little toolbar on the bottom right that you can add shortcuts to, right under where your right thumb usually rests.

I'd like to mention that for me UC browser was horrible because it spammed my devices. I complained directly in their forum and asked for ad free version but they don't have a pay version. So for me UC was out of the game.

For me it's mostly chrome as I have no bugs and it works flawlessly with chrome on my desktop for bookmarks and tabs. Stock browser for everything else because of flash.. And the speed. Gotta love that speed.
It seems like everyone is stating something else. I think it's best to just try some and see for yourself.

Just like roms and kernels, that is the one universally correct answer.

I prefer using the stock aosp browser but on my n7 it geta wonky on every rom ive tried. It will randonly freeze up and fc and stop being able to go back to the last page. I dont have time to get around and try every rom because of time and because i have 3 users on the device so restoring is a *****. If someone could pm me a rom that the aosp browser (not chrome) works good for them id appreciate it.
Opera is amazing. Chrome is good. Firefox has really upped their game lately and I still hate stock.

Well, I use ad blocker, too. When using UC Browser the first page/start screen showed always ads. To be true, if you're willing you can ignore it... but I am very sensitive to ads. They annoy me. :angel:
For all fans of Dolphin browser ->
read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319529
Right now I'm using stock CM browser.
The AOSP browser by a long mile, IMHO... Sure, the other browsers (Dolphin, Opera, Maxthon) might have more options (lots of bells and whistles), but AOSP has the edge in terms of speed and smoothness.
For anybody not rooted or unwilling to flash a custom ROM, then Lightning Browser is the next best thing to the AOSP browser... (IMHO, of course).

Hi, youdug...
I've never experienced any problems with the AOSP browser in Paul O' Briens MoDaCo ROMs... including the CyanogenMod variant I'm currently running...

On my Galaxy 3, I prefer Boat Browser (it's unbelievable fast),
But on my n7, I use Firefox because of f-sync, add-ons and flash...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Tried almost all browsers in market and my favorite browser is AOSP browser love that speed and flash support. But sometime using Chrome because of browser sync feature is really useful.
How do I get firefox to work with flash ?
I tried installing the archived android flash from adobe website and nothing ?
I've recently switched to AOSP browser, and I'm happy with it.
I used chrome before, but got annoyed by those popup bubbles when clicking links, because it ended up showing a bubble EVERY time I'd click something.
And also I can't stand their text scaling, most signatures on XDA were MASSIVE while actual posts were tiny.
I tried other browsers as well, every one had something that bugged me (like swiping from one side would bring up a menu or such...)
I still use Firefox occasionally when chrome or AOSP won't download something or for very rare flash.

Hangouts is laggy

Hell everyone i don't know if anyone else has experienced this but my hangouts is laggy compared to my nexus 5, brothers Sony z3, and my cousins nexus 6. It's noticeable and annoying. I'm running fire Kat v5 it was laggy also before the root and Rom. I'm asking if anyone else has experienced this and if there's a fix. Right now I'm using gosms pro and it's actually faster but I'd rather use hangouts.
One last thing.
I had this experience with the galaxy s4 but my power button gets stuck a lot and it doesn't click but still works. Sometimes it will fix itself and start clicking again

I have the same issue with Hangouts. It's been like that since I got the phone. I don't think it has anything to do with fire Kat but I'm not sure what the fix is.
---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------
I tried uninstalling updates to Hangouts and it seems to have reduced the lag for me for the most part. Maybe this is worth trying until the fix it.
It's the app, it turned laggy ever since the new update. When I had my Lg G3 it never lagged. Composing a text is extremely laggy
It's lady on 3 devices I have right now. Including one on lollipop. I think the app is just not running smooth right now.

It is laggy on my N4 also. It was laggy on my n2. I read in other forums that it is the app. For me my keyboard lags and moving in and out between different text becomes slow and laggy. I read in another forum that clearing cache and data through application manager settings will help the problem. I've found that it only temporarily fixes it then goes back to being laggy. I've uninstalled and cleared cache and dalvik cache... then reinstalled it but that was only a temporary fix... because again it begins to lag after a while. I really think only google can fix this.

BAD ASS NOTE 4
Yea, pretty laggy for me too. I think it's something with TW. Using the same versions on a Nexus 5, it ran perfect.
In fact, Hangouts is laggy, and Chrome has a lot more lag to it than it did on the N5 also, even though it's got more RAM and cpu on the Note4.
No exposed here, just rooted and debloated a lot to try and fix some of it.
Try the xposed module xhangouts

laggy scrolling on chrome and dolphin

Both browsers exhibit horribly choppy scrolling. Browsing xda forums would do it. Anyone else have the same problem?
Do you have lastpass installed? I found on my Note 4 when lastpass accessibility service was enabled chrome was horribly laggy. My n6 hasn't arrived yet so unable to verify for myself, however I sincerely hope it doesn't as love lastpass.
No i do not have that installed.
The phone is good. Just that web browsing isnt satisfying and that the phone heats up a bit with regular use. I have nothing else installed on other than dolphin and facebook.
