Ah, sorry, I wasn't sure if the problem was with the button physically being broken or the software being in a convoluted non-responsive state. In the latter case my suggestion might have helped (in case you can't restart because the menu is not popping up, but the button still works).
[HTC One S] Fiasco:
Right. The issue seems to be with the button itself. Looks like I'll have to send it in.

Had a similar issue when I had a Sensation 4G. So now I'm a little leary about getting another HTC device.

I guess I have to find another phone to buy. Maybe I'll pick up a Galaxy Nexus again
[HTC One S] tgtoys:
If you're rooted search the market for a reset app and put the button on a second dock. That's what i did for my mytouch that has the same problem. But either way send it in for repair
[HTC One S] Fiasco:
I'm not rooted.

I will send it in for repair as soon as I buy a new phone to replace it.

Hello everyone, I have a few questions concerning tasker and BT audio streaming for a car dock.

The plan would be to place the phone into the dock and have it instantly start streaming audio over BT throughout the vehicle as well as open torque app.

I can purchase a BT receiver and that will take care of the streaming. But could I use NFC tags along with tasker to auto start the streaming and open torque also? Just checking all my bases to make sure it'll work.

Yes. I'm actually setting up something similar. If you are only doing those two tasks you should check out NFC Task Launcher in the play store. Its a little simpler to use. It can also launch any custom tasked events you create (I think).

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Aftcomet:
I'm with Telus. I usually have my S3 on HSPA only. The speeds are perfectly fine for e-mail, or quick browsing. I only turn on LTE when I need the speed. The reason for this is the battery life is uncomparable. With LTE I'm lucky to hit 10 hours with 3 hours of screen time. With 4G I consistently get 15 hours with 4 hours of screen time.

I would love it if there was a widget I could put on my homescreen to quickly switch between GSM/HSPA/LTE(Auto Mode) and HSPA only. Ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
I believe Widgetsoid will toggle all network modes and network data. The widgets can go either on your home screen or in the notification dropdown.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Aftcomet:
Thanks. While it's not a direct toggle it's better than nothing. Right now it acts as a shortcut to the mobile networks settings.

My phone takes like 1 second to wake up. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I got used to the instantaneous wake ups with my old SGS3 and I thought this phone would be snapier.

Anyone else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] erootaku123:
I have the same wake up lag.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 2747343:
Everyone has this problem, i dont think anyone has found a fix yet, all i know is that its not the processors fault
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
I have both phones and the Note 2 wins 90% of the time and my S3 has a custom rom and kernel so it's pretty beefed up so I think some of us got decent one's..? As you said though... Definitely NOT the processor! ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azhurvadal:
Go to S Voice settings, then disable Open Via Home Key.

That should disable the wake up lag
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
Think that tip is for the "home button lag" fix...?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 2747343:
yeah when you first get your phone and you press home it doesnt go directly to home, it waits a second or two for the second click to activate s-voice but if you disable it (s voice < google search) it will go directly to home
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
Yup! :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] offdutyninja808:
I've noticed my phone doing the same thing. If it's a couple minutes in between turning the screen on it takes a second. My phone also seems to struggle with some simple transition animations, now.

Where are the S voice settings. I can't seem to find them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Yaboosh:
No this fixes a separate issue. This fixes the home button lag when using it to go from an app to the home screen.

What the OP is talking about is the delay that you get when trying to wake up the phone, whether it be with the home button or the side button. This seems like a software issue that hopefully Tmobile/Samsung address.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azhurvadal:
That's weird because I don't experience this issue. There is no lag when I wake up my phone.

However, my phone is the international version so most likely the issue is related to Tmobile bloatware.

Try to disable Svoice home button first. If you still experience this issue, then you should wait for update
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlczl:
It is not the "SVoice solution related problem". It is a "power/home button to turn on" issue which is totally different.

Every T-Mobile Note 2 has it (I tested it on several of them at the T-Mobile store).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
Ya, uncheck the ripple effect and uncheck "Popup Note on lock screen".... Night and day difference for me!! And I unchecked Help text too.... Try it out guys... :good: Def better anyways! I don't have it with my International but I do with my T-mobile and I watched a vid by QBKing and he explained how this helped the Sprint version...

( They are in the "Lock Screen option" in the menu....)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
Nice, although i turned back on ripple effect. And the thing I noticed is that if you just turn off and on the screen it takes a while longer. However, if you just turn off the screen, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on, it's much faster.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
Hell if you really want it fast then uncheck all that crap in the settings and it will FLY! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] aminalmo:
I did flash the gt-7100 rom and there is no lag at all now im back to T-Mobile and its laging so we have to wait for the developer to port the gt-7100 rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tekmoe:
I can confirm this. If you simply power off, then power back on immediately, it is quick. However, if the screen has been left off for 15 seconds, turning it back on produces the lag. I unchecked the ripple, ink, help, and popup note in the Lock Screen settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rodknock:
Bad wake lag here as well. Hope someone finds a fix soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrmMaster:

I can honestly tell you that after disabling the S-Voice open via home key, my phone now wakes up instantly. Maybe it's just me only.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hotel_Golf:
Noticed this to. Not only wakeup is faster when doing this. Everything that involvs the home-button is blazing fast when disabled.

Its explainable.

The button waits for a second press if S-voice is activaded.. so.

That makes sense to me. I'm just happy now that I don't get anymore lag. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] paul2834:
I don't have my phone yet, but I'll look into this as well. For those of you who are seeing inconsistent results, try waiting at least 15 seconds before you turn your screen back on for tests. It seems like the screen will turn on fast regardless of your settings if you turn the screen back on immediately after turning it off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kidchunks:
Still get the 1 sec lag with all the settings suggested so far. Maybe because I'm using the password unlock rather than the slide.

I saw some are having the same issue on the N7100 and stumbled upon this:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33634883&postcount=4

I can live with it for now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hotel_Golf:
The processor automatically clocks down and puts multiple cores into sleep-mode when the device is locked. This is why people are getting a slight delay 1 sec after unlocking the device. After that second the processor should have returned to its working speed ready to rumble.

A solution that would work but heaviliy reduce battery-life is to lock the clockspeed with ex. SetCpu, (Requires Root). But, it should remove the delay of 1 sec when unlocking.

Skickat från min GT-I9305N via Tapatalk 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Acorns:
Just a note before everyone goes off to try this, locking the clockspeed doesn't prevent deep sleep (or remove the delay). Nor do any of the default governors. Nor do you really want to prevent deep sleep, as you would end up with about 10 hours max of battery time.

The delay may be related to the way the exy handles sleep though; I know a lot of people are talking about tegra devices not having this issue, and tegra is known for its horrid sleep power consumption (and companion core tag on fix in the T3 for this issue).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hotel_Golf:
I guess I used a custom kernel when I succesfully locked the clockspeed even with the device "sleeping".

I really dont recommend any of the above, but. It is an idea.

Skickat från min GT-I9305N via Tapatalk 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] appro77:
Rubbish. The processor clocks down on the Nexus and HTC phones as well and they don't have wakeup lag. The lag is caused by the Exynos chipset. It is a hardware "feature" and introduces a 650ms lag. If the lag is longer than that there are other factors a play as well.

The only time the Note 2 won't have wakup lag is when it's not actually going into deep sleep.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tracerit:
The cause of my wake up lag was my microsd Card when I had a sprint evo phone. Taking the micro sd card would get rid of the lag. Not sure if it's the same case here though.

because of google play???

hi everbody,

i had the same issue (wake up lag) on my note 2, plus i have a strange thing too: when i install an application from market and return to home, touchwiz was always crashing..

i disabled popup note and ripple effect on lockscreen, disabled svoice and everything else i found on the internet, but nothing helped..

then i discovered samething really strange:

i was keepin the application "google play store" in a folder. when i get it out of the folder and placed directly on one of the screens, everything chanced.. no wake up lag, no crashes..

i hope it will help everone who is not satisfied from other solutions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] aliaselchore:
I had this lag problem on wake up and on touch wiz. I flashed jedi rom and it's gone mst of the time but I can still see it. I think it's a touch wiz thing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevekixs:
I don't have this problem on stock. But I also have s voice and motion features off. I know these cause delays sometimes. I also have all animations turned down to .5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1ng617:
That's what I understand too. I had the first Note (international edition with the Exynos) for 9 months before I bought the Note 2 and I had the same issues regardless of kernel, rom (AOSP, CM, Stock debloated), or "locked" processor speed. I set my minimum to 500 and 800mhz and it still reacted the same way. It is a shortcoming of the Exynos processor that has to do with sleep. With my first Note, if it was charging it was prevented from deep sleeping and would react instantly no matter how long the screen was off. The Note 2 doesn't seem to react this way when charging though.

I think for anyone who is reporting that the settings has corrected the issue should make sure of these two things and report back:

1) Nothing is running in the background that would prevent the processor from sleeping e.g. downloads, wake locks, etc

2) Leave the screen off for at least 5 seconds before trying to turn it back on

My lag comes and goes and I think it's probably because I have background processes that will periodically wake my processor and if I catch it while it's on it will be faster than if I don't.

My two cents.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EmceeGeek:
If you turn off s voice home button shortcut it'll get rid of that problem.

Edit: I just checked mine and I have the same lag, I'm assuming. It's hit or miss.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] russds:
Just an FYI, I'm playing with a different launcher (holo launcher) and the wake up does seem to be faster. I tried the various solutions offered here, nothing seemed to work well.

I had the same wake up lag.

Went into S Voice settings and unchecked Open via the home key. Restarted phone and now phone wakes immediately when button is pushed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bliznade:
I read through the whole thread and tried everything. Now my phone's animations work faster and it seems snappier overall but if left alone for more than 15 seconds and turned on I still have that noticeable ~1 second lag. And the whole "It's a feature of Android that puts the phone into deep sleep" is rubbish. Like I said my Inspire 4G is running a JB rom and it could sit for days and pressing the power button brings it straight to the lock screen. The best explanation I've seen thus far is that it's a "feature" of the exynos chipset. I wish I could do more than ask but the only real fix I can assume would be some internal workings. I'm not a programmer so I have no idea how difficult it'd be but does anybody know if a workaround would even be possible? This is really becoming a pet peeve of mine. Haha.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevessvt:
It cant be because of the chipset, i just picked up a note 10.1 and it wakes up instantly with the same chipset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kabuk1:
Random observation... I had the lag pretty bad too, but ever since last night its gotten way better. The only thing I changed was my SD card. I went from a class 6 to a class 10. I wonder if that has something to do with it? I dunno.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1ng617:
That brings up a good point, but there still might be other parts of the hardware to blame as well. The radio hardware might affect it as well since the 10.1 doesn't have cell capabilities.

I think a better comparison would be if the international GS3 does have lag and the US variants don't since one is Exynos and the other is Qualcomm. Anyone by any chance have both? :D

Update: Actually a look on Samsung's website says it does have network capabilities. My mistake. But I'd still be interested in the Global vs. US versions comparison.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1ng617:
So I tested my friend's GS3 on AT&T with the Qualcomm chipset, and there is only very very slight if any lag when waking up the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rizoh66:
I had wakeup lag pretty bad, so much that I ended up buying Widget Locker from the play store. Now I have zero lag and a more customizable lock screen. This option works great!

No, it still sleeps. It's just a quicker lock screen IMHO. It's an app that's been around for a while. Made by the same creators as Nova Launcher.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] h3ck:
Here goes my two cents. I read through all this tried several things. This is what it boiled down to on my UVALL4 Tmobile Stock Deodexed ROM

I had the Swipe Unlock enabled with the Pattern unlock (and Backup Pin unlock, if pattern craps out, it's mandatory with pattern unlock).

I had the Swipe Unlock on to use the ripple effect, popup note and have weather on lock screen. After reading suggestions I decided to just completely disable the SWIPE lock screen.

Settings > Lock Screen > 'WIth Swipe Lock' Checkbox

Rather than playing around with picking and choosing options on the Swipe lock (Dual clock, no dual clock, weather no weather), I decided to just disable it.

There is a BIG difference and virtually no lag. I think there is a bug when using the swipe unlock WITH another unlock function. People still experiencing should try it out if they haven't already.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] h3ck:
One caviat to this change is that another bug arises. When you disable double home press for S-Voice, you get the big where if you screen sleeps and you press home button to wake it, it brings you all the way to home screen instead of only waking screen.

Reverted changes because that's more annoying than a little luck screen lag.

Sent from my Note II
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1ng617:
Nope, still nothing. There is still delay when I turn off all swipe lock features with or without something else (pattern lock) on or off. I know this is really small but it's so annoying!
