Unbelievable Keyboard/System Lag - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone else having an issue like this? My Note 5 is on the latest T-Mobile firmware. I've got something like 40-70 pieces of bloat disabled, and I still get outrageous keyboard and general OS lag. Here's a look at the typing performance of a hangout.
Also here's OS monitors look at my running processes. Any insight?
Thanks for any help.

Anyone else have issues like this?

Yes I was having these issues. It was driving me nuts. I tried debloating, and factory resest, with no succes. After updating arter97 kernel my issues went away. Phone works like it should, no more lag or slugish UI. Are you rooted? What method did you use. I'm rooted, I used TEKHD's method. But he has an older kernel in his instuctions. Here are link to the updated kernel, I used version 11.0 http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/arter97-kernel-galaxy-note-5-t3189907 Hope this help.

I'm not rooted, as I have the Samsung accidental damage warranty. But dammit I think i might have to. I'm glad at least someone had these issues and I'm not alone.
I get the feeling it's a cpu governer issue or something.

Anyone else have any suggestions? I've cleaned some more apps and it still seems to be an issue.

The only solution is Swiftkey as arters kernel will only help and not eliminate it.

Similar Issues with other models
I have had similar issues with my SM-G928F (S6 Edge+) before the latest software update and factory reset that I usually accompany with it, I think there was something wrong with Samsung keyboard on android 5.1.1, but they seem to have fixed it, maybe check options in the keyboard and the phone, maybe turn things like power saving mode off and then on again.

I'm having a big trouble with keyboard also.. When I press smiley key it needs up to 1 / 1.5 second to switch to emojis.. It is annoying
Maybe It's up to keyboard? Everything else works fine
Can I re-instal keyboard or put keyboard from S6 or It's the same everywhere

Boot into recovery and wipe the cache partition. Before I rooted, that's how I'd solve my lag problems, which for me were very rare.

Nope. The Samsung keyboard, like most other system apps, can't be uninstalled unless you're rooted. If you're not rooted, the best you can do is download an alternative.

Galaxy note boot up is driving me nuts!!

So I was on iMilkas rom for a bit. I decided that I really needed Skype and netflix to work so I went back to stock for a bit while I decided what to do. Everything went back fine. However whenever I reboot my phone it plays a tune over and over for about let's say, 6 MINUTES!!! It loops over and over and over. I go into my sounds and my default ringer is set properly and my notification sound is set. (neither is this annoying tune btw). Any ideas why this phone keeps doing it. Also I swear it gets a little longer with every reboot.
version: 2.3.6
baseband: DDLB1
kernel: DDLB2
oh and the song it repeats over and over is the one of the defaults: "Over the Horizon"
Does sound like a funny bug. I swear I heard something similar a month or so ago and a reflash of the rom solved it. Someone may be able to determine the exact problem for you though

Symptoms of improper flashing mate.Try factory reset if it doesnt work try to reflash the rom again
hard reset it or flash it again
Man I was hoping that wouldn't be the best solution although in the back of my head I think it is. Considering this, I might just downgrade again and re-enable root so I can restore with TB. Since this is where I'm heading I guess i'll spend the rest of my time in the developer forum finding the most suitable rom to jump on board with. Any suggestions from people on GB roms? ( I can't go to ics as I need Skype to work for "work".
Best rom to go with is rocketrom v22 its a gb rom and you can get the ics look with a matching theme put franco kernel 9 and you are ready to roll into awesomeness!!
rocket rom comes in miui theme by default but in the opening post of the rom u will find a perfect ics theme to go with!!
the best combo is rocket rom plus ics theme plus franco kernel
SHOT from my LOADED GT-N7000!!
I've seen similar problems mentioned with early versons of SuperSU.
have you updated to this recently?
some were able to resolve the issue by disabling the notification toasts, and/or granting SU access as default.
I installed MIDNOTE 2.0 yesterday and I must say that it is a flawless ICS rom. I dont have any problems at all!!!

Should be safe. All warnings are related to custom/leaked ICS kernels, not the official.
In short, Keep it stock and you will be fine.
P.S. Thats the normal method of flashing stock roms anyhow.
Good Luck
I just followed this guide to the letter and it worked fine. I have a Uk O2 Note 16Gb.
Little update. After 6 hours of using this I havent had any issues that I have notices. Camera works, S Note installed, powered off and on a few times to be sure, lock screen working fine and new functions of ICS seem fine.
would this work with i717r from rogers in canada. i tried the att rom but my keyboard was like super duper slow. and i had to wait for the keyboard to catch up to me.
Dont know if it would work on your note or not. After a day mine so far is 100% ok. Did you do the wipe after instal? I noticed in the instructions it suggests it will run slow until you do that. I done it straight away so dont know how slow it would run without doing it.

Do not try to flash it on I717, you'll end up with a hard-brick.

[Q] Youtube App not playing videos in BAKED blackbean-4

I really enjoy BAKED ROM, only problem is that I cannot get Youtube to work. I saw that there was another user in the development section that had this same problem, but I am not able to comment due to low post count. Is anyone using this ROM experiencing the same problem? For those who are using the ROM and Youtube is working, did you do anything different from the Install instructions?
Any help is great, as I really enjoy this ROM.
I am on blackbean-4 and only other change is I am using the Mackay Kernel v0.64.
I will revert the kernel back to stock later and report back with any changes, as i CANNOT recall if I had the same problem with stock kernel or not.
Thank you.

Reinstalled and did not flash Mackay kernel. Fixed the issue.
For me nothing worked until this:
tried to clean data restart and so on, till I uninstalled update and now it works. I think they try to implement something so you can't watch from other country as my phone think I'm from US but I'm in Europe or they made really poor app.

[Q] Why note 3 is so slow after 4.4.2 update ?

I received AT&T OTA update for 4.4.2 and after that I see that my phone is really slow. anyone else experiencing the same issues ?
Also, if I instal the custom ROM, I will lose all the S-Pen features ? Is there any ROM that offers any S-Pen features ?

I heard about people having issues after the OTA. Unfortunately if you took the OTA, you cannot root therefore you cannot install a custom ROM which is too bad. I am running Dynamic Kat and Dynamic Kat Xtreme which are extremely fast with minimal if any issues.

Wait..I cannot root my note 3 ? How this is possible ? I thought it is possible to root any phone as long as custom ROM is available (irrespective of stock android) ? I cannot root my phone with roms like cyanogenmod etc ?

Not in the case of the Note 3 and the latest KitKat update from AT&T. You needed to be rooted on 4.3 and update to Kitkat via a custom ROM. Right now you and everyone else who took the OTA update are stuck. Sorry man. Read around the forums. You will see the sad truth.

Not if you have the At&t Note 3. (Locked Bootloader)
Your out of luck until Kingo comes out with a Root solution or someone else
Still you cant run a custom ROM that needs a kernal.
You can only install TouchWiz roms. FOREVER no exceptions until bootloader is unlocked which will never happen EVER.
Yes S Pen work with our custom ROMs. (TouchWiz) we cant install CM on these phones period.
So here is your situation. You have installed the wonderful Stock 4.4.2 from At&t and are stuck.
I would factory reset it (Stock Recovery) and see if that helps.
Thats it.

Oh no..this is really strange and very surprising to me that there is no way to install custom ROM on AT&T note 3 with OTA 4.4.2 update.
So, in the update they have locked the bootloader completely which cannot be unlocked ? Because in normal rooting process, we usually unlock the booatloader first, it can't be done in this case ?
Is this restriction added from AT&T or Samsung ?

[/QUOTE
When this Phone first came out the bootloader was locked (By At&t)
This new update didn't do that. You just can't root your phone on the OTA 4.4.2 right now.
Once you get it rooted, you can install SafeStrap 3.72 and flash a custom rom.

You can still root this phone. You just have to wait for someone to figure it out like Kingo.
We rooted before the OTA and I froze the update apk.

I installed a custom KITKAT rom and enjoying my phone a lot. Just have to stay involved in these forms and read read read. You will be fine. Check Kingo android root online to see if the released a new version that will root it for you. Locked bootloader means no custom kernels, there for AOSP, CM and others won't work. Only Touch wiz.

Is there any way to make the performance of note 3 faster and less sluggish (OTHER THAN FACTORY RESET) ?
I have tried doing a factory reset but still note 3 performance is not good even tho this is a great specs phone.
Turn off all of the boatware in the settings menu. That should help some. Also, go into developer options and change the animation scales to .5 or off. That won't really make your phone faster, but it will seem faster. There's a thread in the general section about making your phone super fast.

1) What does this animation option does ?
2) How to disable the boatware ? How to disable app as I do not see disable button in app settings for any app ? can you please give me a test example please ?
The changing the animation times will make the animations between switching windows faster or slower. Changing them to .5 will make them faster and off will make them nonexistent so there will be no animations between windows. When the animations are faster/off it will make the phone seem faster. Not sure if my explanation is clear enough, but if you try it you'll see what I mean.
To turn stuff off, go to the settings menu, application manager, and pick an application. For example, let's say you pick HP Print Plugin. Near the top right of the screen you will see a button that says "turn off". Push this and the application will be disabled. Some of them you cannot turn off. Be careful which ones you turn off because it can cause problems if you disable the wrong thing.

N8010XXUDNE4 | 4.4.2 | Stockish ROM | Sept 14, 2014

Rom is very basic. Built from the UK N8010XXUDNE4 firmware. Runs great on my daughter's N8013. Only thing needed is to flash @Mikyno WIFI fix after your initial boot. See his thread for link and thank him.
ROM is rooted with unsecure stock kernel.
it is ODEX!! (didn't care to deodex since this is just a base.)
Nothing removed except KNOX.
Feel free to use a base for a ROM, I don't even care for credit. I just made this for my old faithful followers who are still rocking the N8013/N8010.
Enjoy!
Download - LINK
I have tried to flash this on my n8013 a few times fresh, using TWRP 2.7.1, but each time I try, I get an error once it boots saying that settings has closed Any ideas how to fix this?
EDIT:
I found the issue. When you flash the ROM, you must do it in installments. First, flash just the ROM, then reboot into system, let it boot up and load the default startup options. Then reboot back into Recovery, and flash the n8013_WiFi_Fix, and if you want to, Boeffla Kernel as well. Then once you reboot back into System, it is all good.
I did the two part flashing as well, works great so far! Thanks!
Yeah sorry guys... Spaced out on telling you guys that. Its been a while since I posted anything so I forgot to include the important details. My bad. Glad it is working for you guys. I may or may not start working on a kernel as well and I might add some tweaks to this when I have time between work and updating my apps on the play store.
Thanks!
Will try it soon!
You think otg is working on the 8010?
Is it stock kernel for 8010?

An 8013 update? Lol holy hell. I'm happy I finally decided to check up after all these months. Will give it a shot tonight, thank you!

Whats the difference between this/your N8010XXUDNE4 rom and the one used in this linked process? Aside from all the install steps.

Great ROM, exactly what I was looking for for my n8013. Is there a trick to attaining root access with this ROM? Titanium Backup keeps requesting, but it is never granted.
Sorry if this is a noob question. That is the only thing I need. Thanks!
Update: I got this to work by re-flashing auto root utility.
FYI if anyone is having problems with predictive text, you need to go into input languages and download the language (even though you've selected it in the install).
Also I didn't need to install the mikyno wifi fix to get it working, presumably the wifi isn't meant to actually physically work without the fix?
Thanks guys
It was a software issue not hardware. It has been too long for me to really say more then that, but either way good to know. Thank you sir
I get random reboots quite often with all stock based roms.
CM seems to work fine though.
Anyone else has reboot issues?
Edit.
I'm using Phil's touch recovery. Could that be the problem?
