This is very simple! Turning on certain, if not all, apps that require Accessibility causes notification draw lag.
I thought it was installing too many apps but I was wrong. Granting certain apps Accessibility causes lag.
Disabling the app or apps in Accessibility should make your notification area move smooth again.
For example sake, take a look at the pic below. If I had "Chrooma Keyboard Picker Service" turned on I would be getting the lag. But since I turned it off I'm lag free.
Hope this helps!
I had to uninstall lux dash auto brightness for this. Pretty sure it had accessibility services enabled too. Anyone else notice any problem apps?

Yup. We need to bring this to 1+'s attention.
I have lag too when I pull down the notification, but I have no apps turned on in Accessibility.

I'm using LastPass app to store passwords and fill in them when needed using a fingerprint. It requires accessibility toggle to be on in order for the notification to float.

Yes, it does. I had this lag on my previous device as well and was so upset discovering it here as well. But then I came across the post and - miracle. The lag disappeared completely.

@Xennet you can ask me anything here.
But I wanna find out about changing the font
I just found out something while playing with fonts. U can hav 2 diff fonts in ur system ui...
In oneplus 3t...
One type of group of font is system wide for keyboard, settings (except the main group headings in settings) and in every other places
The other group of font is used in status bar, in settings in the main headings and in main headings in apps...
To do this u need to change two group of font files in t directory system/fonts.
The first font group i mentioned is droid sans.ttf and droid sans bold.ttf
The second font group is roboto regular, roboto medium, and roboto bold ttf.
(Replace all the fonts in t first and second grup, just replacing 1 font will not do t trick.)
For replacing t fonts just use any of ur favourite font file in ttf format (dont use otf format fonts) rename it exactly as the font to be replaced and most importantly after replacing t font give permission to the file as rw- r-- r-- and reboot.
By using fonster and other font changing apps u can only have one font system wide. But using this method u get 2 diff fonts in t system at the same time. Just play around :laugh:

Thanks I'll try that. For now I actually installed Fontster from Google play and all the fonts were changed. I'll try it out.
Thanks man!

Absolutely worked for me. LastPass app was the culprit. Unfortunately this breaks LastPass quite severely so I hope a fix is still in the works. I am going to the main site to see if there is a bug report.

Very nice. Are you running 7.1.1 now?
I was wondering if any one knew how to hide the nav bar when the keyboard was open. Where it really bothers me the most is when I'm texting.
Enjoy

You can use Systemui tuner app, from playstore, there is an option "inmersive mode", you choose navigation bar, and the nav bar will ALWAYS hide, even in home screen, but for this app to work, you need to grant permissions with ADB, the app itself guides you for doing it, look at this:

That doesn't work. It still shows when the keyboard is open
Well, I use AI type keyboard, the nav bar appears below the keyboard, and the back arrow in nav bar changes to a down arrow to hide the keyboard, I find this as a good implementation, the nav bar does not overlay the keyboard, or you just donot want to see it?

I just now spoke with Samsung about this. Apparently, they've heard about this issue and will address it in a future update.

It's a good practice to read the description, not just download stuff. So you don't have to ask unnecessary questions.

I did reboot, but didn't work. Turns out no longer supported for OREO.
I know some people are looking for this. I have been searching through a lot of posts and found some Apk's that didn't work or worked through the Samsung theme blaba. I found one that works without too much trouble, install and reboot! Sometimes it will ask to be Uninstalled when you delete a app. Just click cancel, sorry for original maker but I cannot find the post where I found the Apk.
Make sure to have an alternate way of navigating before installing!

I love the concept but long home press stops working, and alternatives to the nav bar dont work in secure mode.
Does any one know of a working navbar height reducer?
I have tried a few apk's that were working on S8+ but they have no effect on Note 8.
Thanks in advance
**Edit**
Found one
What I'd prefer is the ability to see my nav icons only across the entire system, across all apps, but make the background of the nav bar transparent. Using no themes. Stock. Does that make sense? Things are transparent whilst I'm on the home screen, naturally. So that's not an issue. But across all apps? That's what I'd LOVE to have.

I believe both of those are the same because I am having the same issue. I think the problem is my fingers are too fat to properly hit those smaller icons. :silly:
Probably.
Have you tried reducing the DPI in developer options?
This also has the effect of reducing nav bar size.

That was a long time ago. I currently have it set up as follows.
You can see the height of the nav bar in one of the screen shots.

I installed some mod that made my navbar look and act weird. Basically, after installing a certain mod (can't tell which one actually), the navbar looks like this:
I wouldn't mind it too much but the fact the home softkey is not perfectly centered annoys me. Also, on this navbar, clicking the home softkey plays the little animation with the four google dots, another thing that I don't really like.
If I go to Settings, Apps & Notifications, Default Apps, Assist & Voice Input, and change it say to Firefox, and then back to None, the navbar becomes normal again.
But at reboot I get the crappy misaligned one again. I don't use any Assist&Voice Input app, so I set it to none. I also deleted the Google App and Assistant and everything else related to it, because I don't use that stuff.
Like I said, I think a mod that I installed caused this issue. It could have been Pix3lify or the modded Xperia Home with the pill navbar. I removed both mods but the navbar goes back to the weird one after any reboot, so maybe a leftover from one of these mods is still in my system, but I can't find it. How can I restore the default navbar without doing a factory reset? Unfortunately I don't have a backup and I would rather avoid the factory reset. Again it's not a big deal, but I would like to fix it.
While this might not be a perfect solution, you can modify the looks of the navbar with a substratum theme.
Such as this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rc.navigate
This is the substratum theme engine, and it requires root on android 9 and up:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=projekt.substratum
If you need more info about substratum look in the app's description or just ask here.

Could be a solution, but I don't feel like installing more stuff on my phone. Do you know which file is responsible for the navbar's appearance?

Sorry, I don't know that.
Maybe this article about modifying the stock navbar can be useful?
https://www.xda-developers.com/add-custom-buttons-to-nav-bar-on-samsung-galaxy-s8-galaxy-s8/
Or this one:
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...icons-or-re-arrange-the-buttons-without-root/
They might mention it somewhere.
Weirdly enough, if I use Substratum, the theme I set appears on top of the crappy navbar, and by that I mean that I see both at once once. Guess I'll have to factory reset huh
I was bored today so I came back to this issue. I reflashed System with flashtool, which brought back all the bloatware obviously, but the navbar stays in its weird mode. If I create a new user, the new user gets a normal navbar. If I enable Google and the search assistant, the navbar stays weird on reboot but as soon as I start Google, the navbar becomes normal again.
Anyone know a possible solution to this puzzle?

Just do a full reset and start from scratch. No one likes doing them, but sometimes it's the only option.
Coming from Oxygen, there's still a lot of visual stuff I dislike about One UI, though I will say, it's FAR better than the last Samsung I used which ran TouchWiz.
Running Nova and Theme Park to get things looking/running the way I generally prefer.
The one last piece that I really dislike but can't find a complete solution for is the Task Manager. I have Home Up running, but the part that annoys me is the Recent App shortcuts. They appear to be randomly generated, and the icons are horrific and cartoony. I just don't like it.
Is there an alternative or way to just turn the recent app shortcuts off? Screenshot attached for clarity.
Home up, task changer, disable "hide search bar"
Enter recents, three dots menu in search bar, settings, disable "show recommended apps"
Now you can hide search bar again

I actually discovered that RIGHT as I got a notification of your reply.
Big thanks for chiming in.
While I still generally think One UI < Oxygen, with enough tweaks, I can deal.
Question for you OP. How'd you get home up working while using Nova. None of the settings seem to stick when changing task manager using goodlock homeup when move is set to default.

there is a recent update to One UI Home that fixed that issue for me with lawnchair.
if youre not getting it through samsung, you can sideload it from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...rience-home-touchwiz-home-12-1-05-11-release/
you also may or may not have to update home up.

Thanks that worked! Looking clean now. I also hated the suggested apps at the bottom. I use a higher dpi and that was not affected by the dpi change. So it looked even worse on my phone. They looked huge compared to everything else.

Hi there
I was wondering if there is any way to apply the new homeup with the task changer on one ui 2.5 or any other good lock plugins for that matter
Samsung is only updating them for android 11 and was really hoping to get them on my phone
BTW I have a note 9 so no updates for me
