delayed home screen - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i boot my phone and swipe up to go to the home screen after entering the pin number to unlock the sim card it takes 10-15 seconds before i even see anything on the homescreen. At the moment running stock android, rooted with supersu 2.82.
After the home screen is visible all works fine, no delays when going back to it.
It also happens with other roms, so not a stock only problem. It started about a 2-3 weeks ago. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Disable lock to see if that changes it.
Settings, Storage, Cache, clear cache.

Disabled lock but result the same. Clearing cache does not help either.
Strange is that it does not happen every time i reboot the phone and when it happens the time it takes to show the home screen is sometimes longer or shorter.

Change your default to stock. Does it still happen?

Are you using nova beta? If so, go to the Nova beta G+ community to see if there's a similar problem or post a bug report. If not, in the "about community" section of that link, there a link to sign up for beta through Google play.

At the moment both stock and nova launcher home screens start almost straight after i swiped up after entering the pin code.
But both occasionally have showed delays of up to 10-15 seconds. I have no clue why this is happening and what the reason is.

Since this is happening on stock as well, I'd guess there is background activity "bogging" the CPU down. Maybe due to apps dozing then all clamoring for updates as the device wakes.
Grabbing a logcat through adb might give some insight. If you can get one when having the problem then contrast against one when the display responds promptly.

Thanks for the logcat reminder. Should have thought of that myself. Now all is working without any delay. But will pull a logcat when it happens again and try to find the cause of the problem.

Just a reminder, you'll have to pull a logcat every time you unlock until you catch the problem. It's to late after the problem occurs ?

Lock 2.0 Donate

I got the donate version (love it) but i have moved apps to sd card on my phone, and i have noticed this program, along with a few others need to be started when you restart your phone, is this the case if your apps are on the phone? Also is there a means to tell the g1 what apps i would like it to run on startup?
the new version gives u an option to run at start up
Doh!!! now i really feel like an idiot... I blame linux for my brain frying.
Thanks alot got it set now
i went ahead and got the donate version and i really love the app i just hate how it goes to sleep when i am only using touch. but the app is making my iphone friends so jealous
Lock 2.0 Problem
Well I got the lock 2.0 donate version. Whenever I run the app for it to download the default.zip file it says "the application lock 2.0 has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
But the free version runs fine..
Can not find the donate version in the market - Bulgaria/Europe
Runs fine on my G1
if you don't know what you doing or if u move file that u don't know what they do, don't come crying here asking for help + saying that the app don't work

I found a bug that i reported to the developer.
You can bypass the lock feature, click menu-set skin-back button.
Brings you to the homescreen not back to the lock screen
i liked the app, but asked for a refund becuz when lock2.0 was running, my notification sounds wouldn't work.
anyone else have this problem? i would get the LED notification, but no sound.

No he did not. I still get no sound wheter it's running or not. Hopefully I get it back when I uninstall.
this app worked fine until i turned on the option to have it open on startup. now my phone hangs on the android loading screen. it will not go past it. anyone else had this problem? i have tried to unistall via adb but couldnt figure out how to. any help would be great. thanks!
Grrrr... I uninstalled it, too unstable to be truly usefull. Restart the phone and you have to restart the program, I know you can set it to run at start-up but then it does not bypass that fugly "stock" locked screen. Notifications work on and off, made me miss so many emails....... I'll wait and see if dev can work all those bugs out, may be reinstall it in a month or so.
Weird, I don't have any problems with it. Yeah, when the phone restarts it goes back to the stock locked screen, but I simply enter my unlock pattern and done.
lock 2.0 notification problems
I've read in a few posts where people have notification problems, either no notificaton, or you cant pull down the notification screen etc. I had this problem too intermitantly, i played with it, and found a work around, hopefully help some others experiencing the same probs till the dev comes up with a fix. When you first boot your phone, if you have the proggy set to come on at startup, you have about 3 seconds, where it boots to your normal android start screen (half window, with time network information in it.) if you wait about 3 seconds, it will autolock into your lock 2.0 program. at this point your notifications are screwed, but if when it first boots to the normal android boot screen, and you hit the menu button, it will move to your desktop, and then autolock. You should be good to go at this point. everytime i press menu before it locks, i have 0 notification problems. Hope this helps some of you out there

Didn't seem delayed to me it looks like you're just causing it to do that by swiping to much on the home screen options and then when it closes out you get that delayed response from what you were just doing.. If it's such a major deal then save whatever you need to and factory reset the phone.

Tmobile apps keep creating shortcuts on home page

The Name ID and Visual Voicemail app keep creating shortcuts on my homepage. Anybody else having this issue or something similar? I've deleted the shortcuts multiple times, but after a reboot bammm there they are again.
edit: disabled Name ID and of course that no longer does it - that is useless anyway. Visual voicemail on the other hand is pretty crucial, tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No go, still re-adds to home page after reboot.

I thought i was the only one with this problem. Thisnis driving me crazy. Deleting The tmobile visual vocemail short cut for it to appear again in my main screen after a few hours.
I was gonna create a post just now cause of this
I havent found a solution. Really need visualvoice mail and this app is very important. But it doesnt matter if i cldar cache or delete app/reinstall. It keeps doing the same thing

Already have it. Name ID can be disabled natively anyway though. Cant/don't want to disable visual voicemail since it's something I actually use.

Ya it sucks, I still haven't found a solution. I'm hoping once the trial period for voice to text is over that it'll stop doing this. I'm doubtful, but I can't think of any solutions right now. Glad to know I'm not the only one with the problem though.
Edit: Manually ended trial. Removed from home screen, rebooted, and it came back once more. Very annoying.
This is with the TouchWiz launcher? Have you tried deleting the entire page that the persistent icon keeps showing up on?

Did you try settings, apps, TouchWiz Home, storage, clear data?
If this works, obviously you'll have to set your TW launcher up from scratch.

Nope. Doesnt work. I even factory reset my device. For now the only solution is to ask.... what order app can i use for visual voice mail instead of the official tmobile app?

Bad experience with the new One UI update

After the update, those 2 useless bars appeared I've tried to find every setting to turn them off but I can't find any (I already looked in the Edge Screen and all those advanced function settings) nothing helps
Please help me Thank you!
P/s: its function is Back, but I don't need 2 extra Back! My nav works fine!
(Solved) it turns out that the One Hand Operation+ app causes this, I uninstalled it and they are gone

I dont have the issue, i haven't factor reset too. Few people have it and it was solved by reset. It is highly advisable to factory reset. Those lines are actually a navigation gesture. If you swipe download from the line, it acts as back button and swipe straight horizontally to go to home. Swipe upwards for recent apps.
Make backup using smart switch and use google to sync game progress.

Question Did anyone find a solution against the agressive background killing of apps?

Apps will automatically close within 10-20 seconds after I leave the app through the home gesture. It drives me crazy that literally no app will stay open in my recents. I tried locking the apps in the recents, it did not help. (What's the sense of locking apps there then?!)
Anyone has a solution/workaround?
Just select to not optimize that app in battery settings....
I'm on OOS 13 Open Beta 2 build and haven't encountered this issue at all. Apps stay in background for hours honestly.
Maybe check Battery Optimization for each of those apps and permit Background Activity?

I did that but it doesn't help. Apps stay in recent when I leave them but if I open it again seconds later, I'm greeted with the splash screen and for example Chrome reloads the website.

Weird doesn't happen to me at all. I just checked, and I am even in battery saver mode. Programs stay in RAM as expected, and load immediately in the state/position they are in. Android 12 A.15, rooted, tons of debloat via adb disable. I also even run Malwarebytes with realtime stuff and scanning enabled.

I'm sure it does, try opening one app, copy from one, switch to another and paste, continue doing that. Eventually it'll lose your position.
Apps remain in recents yes but the absolute state is not kept.

Thats so weird because they won't stay open in the background for like most of us. 10 seconds after I minimize an app like Gmail, then reopen it, I will be greeted with the Spash Screen of Gmail which takes like 1-2 seconds.
Chrome is even more annoying, since the website I was on 10 seconds ago, will have to reload.
It's stupidly annoying and I tried everything to get it fixed. With this behavior of RAM, that Apps close withing literaly seconds, 2 GB RAM could have also made the deal
