Well then, I can see why you're less concerned with the lag than your more nimble comrades are. For the rest of us, though, it would be nice if the lag could be reduced. If not, no big deal.

User-interface research shows that people are sensitive to a delay as small as 100 ms, measurably reducing their interaction in response to such a delay. And that response makes sense, given the significant cumulative times that I mentioned.

Here's an example of the research (in the context of search-query response time, but the same general principle applies):

Screen lag does bother me too but I'm getting used to it. For now, I just have popup note and effects all disabled in a sad effort to improve time. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Idan73:
Nothing to do with double click, it's just the way exynos sleeps.

It's been the same on sgs1, 2 and 3 (exynos models of course).

North American sgs3 qualcomm for example does not suffer from this at all, while international does.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RedeemerSK:
Hi, Galaxy S3 (international) user here ... so AFAIK we share the same ****ty Exynos <-> modem thingy

How come it looks like customers don't care. like WTF. This is not something you can miss or see in just specific situations. It's there every time !

How is it possible that this is not being rubbed into's Samsung's face as serious design flaw ?! How is it possible that when I was going through numerous reviews before buying S3 not even one mentioned such serious behavior.

Was / Is it different with the Note 2 ? (I mean the general "public knowledge" about this)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] raduque:
Most people, except for a few here, don't care. I know I don't.

Or rather, some of them may care, but also understand there's nothing that can be done to get around it, as it's a hardware design choice. Nothing short of re-designing the Exynos<>modem interface is going to change it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hapticxchaos:
Ive been watching this thread since November, and I gotta tell you...I have yet to experience this. I've watched the video and read the descriptions, my screen wakes instantaneously. The only time I get screen wake lag is when I get my CPU Governor to "power saving". I would also like to add that I've been through 3 GN2, and none of them were effected.

Strange.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] crawlgsx:
Any time I unlock there is a delay between pressing the unlock button and the screen coming on. Even most of the time if I immediately lock and reunlock. I don't know if this is the same thing being discussed or not, since I don't think the phone is even sleeping yet? My Note (n7000) did the same thing. GS3 was instant on/off.

Personally I find it annoying but hey to each their own! :)

I will say that if that is the biggest of my complaints it isn't too bad :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] joseph.jyl:
Definitely annoying

I've had the SGS3 737 for a couple of months until Christmas when I got the Gnote2 317. The wake is definitely noticeably longer and VERY annoying especially seeing how benchmarks put this phablet as being reasonably faster than the North American GS3.

Benchmarks mean nothing in the real world unless you're gonna convert video files or something.

I have a rooted phone and to fix this problem, I use Antutu CPU master to change the profile to "onDemand"

which is the norm for most android phones I've used and doesn't have the problem ever since.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wtharp2:
What has this done to your battery life, if anything?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hapticxchaos:
anyone experiencing the issue should root and change their governor to on demand to resolve their issue. Samsung considers it a feature lol.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cdf3:
Thanks for posting! This has gotten rid of that terrible lag when waking my device. Now it's a matter of seeing how it'll affect my battery life.

If it doesn't affect battery life and performance, then I'll be one happy camper. That lockscreen lag had me on the verge on ditching my Note 2 and finding another phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ShadowVlican:
so wait... this problem is solved by creating a wakelock?

seems counter intuitive for battery life

btw: problem still exists on my setup (slimbean 4.3.1 build 2.2 + devil kernel)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eZdubzitmk4:
Use a different ROM lol. I always put screen wake lag mods into whatever ROM I'm using

I dont understand how to make this wake lock on my phone. I just want to ask you, if its the same like for example app softlocker, if it drains battery the same amount. Then i would rather install free app than doing this mod.

Hi everyone.

I am experiencing a rather strange issue with my HOX. The volume down button does not work as smooth as the volume up. When i press it to lower the volume it does it in an erratic way, sometimes it has a little lag descending levels or sometimes drops 2 levels at once... it is not clearly smooth.

I had an HTC Desire HD that had this very same problem.

Does anyone have this problem as well? Is it software related? I have firmware version 2.17.401.2

[HTC One X] TotalManiac:
I think it's a hardware issue. I've got this aswell, and sometimes it is annoying. I tend to push it a bit further up so it will register it. Though I also have that lag that it will drop 2 or 3 levels.

Hey everyone, i have an HTC Desire C, with CWM 5.5.0.4 installed.

My problem is that i cannot do a nandroid backup.

Whenever I try to backup with CWM, it completes backing up my system, but at about halfway of backing up my data it reboots automatically.

When I check the backup folder afterwards, it contains 4 files:

recovery.img, boot.img, system.ext4.tar and a data.ext4.tar that is 0 bytes. There are no .md5 files.

I have tried to backup my device over 10 times and it has only worked once.

What can be wrong?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wingzero7:
Hey Guys,

Real quick, new to android sorta... I've had the nexus 7 since the summer, but I've dropped iPhone (4) for the Note 2.

I've set my security settings to lock the phone right?

The problem is that even with that on I just have the swipe to unlock and the phone doesn't lock. I restarted the phone and the initial wake up has the lock, then I unlock it and never see it again. I switched from pin to pattern and its the same deal.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

I had the same problem you need to adjust the lock timer its set to like 30 mins by default.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MinionOfEckerd:
Just curious if there has been any information released about a snap-tight case that would protect against spills/drops in water, dust-proof and possibility drop/shock proof. I know that the odds of a case like this being produced depends on how many of the devices are sold along with customer request.

So are there any companies out there that are saying they will produce one? Or is it time to start sending mass emails to request them to make it? Thanks! :D
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] barry99705:
I was amazed they are starting to make life proof cases for the gs3! Really doubtful they will make one for the note.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] siehead:
Is this even possible with an S-Pen? We may not get anything water proof, but something drop/shock proof is coming in the form of Otterbox cases. You can find those here: http://www.otterbox.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-cases/samsung-galaxy-note-2-cases,default,sc.html
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MinionOfEckerd:
Well, I guess that you wouldn't be able to take the S-Pen out with a snap-on water-proof case. That's more or less a given.if you want it to be water-proof.

Yeah, I've been eyeing up the Otterboxes as usual which will help out in case of drops.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Deleted member 3092711:
They could make cap on the s pen part like the one the iphone one has for the charging port which we could remove take the pen out and close it back up and such that way it would be sealed tight and still functional. I for one would really love a lifeproof for the note to come out.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mastergrim8:
LifeProof will never come out with a case in the galaxy note series due to the fact that the stylus is a major feature in the line. If they make one, losing the stylus feature kinda defeats the purpose of getting phablet like this. I can see them making one for the galaxy s3.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Deleted member 3092711:
Well there are many ways to seal the device up without taking away the functionality of the stylus they would just need to really think of the best one. I mean seriously a cap that works like the port covers on most cases should work fine and keep it sealed but yeah i doubt they will make anything and yeah i know that the S pen is pretty much the point of buying a Note.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sunglint:
That would be awesome

Having paid full price for this thing I would love to get a waterproof case for it. I was thinking today about what I'd want in a rugged case. Since we have bluetooth/wifi I only have to plug it in to charge it, so some wireless charging solution would close off that port, as well as the headphone port. They could make another place to put the pen, triggering the internal sensor might be tricky. For now you can go to an outdoor store and get a waterproof pouch and put it in there when needed, but realistically it does rain sometimes so not needed to do that would be great.

I would be very cautious buying cheap waterproof cases. Wouldnt put my phone in there.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
Yep, not to mention it's only $20... A real shovk/water proof case will most certainly cost more than that.

For everyone else you can forget the speculation, there have been many of us contacting various companies about making such a case and the answer is invariably NO.

If you did the wire trick and haven't done the htcdev unlock since then, your bootloader is locked but that won't matter since the JBear version allows the same fastboot commands as an unlocked stock bootloader.

[LG Optimus Black] srikanth_kande:
just 7.04 update zip in sd card, wipe cache and dalvik cache and install the 7.04 zip (don't forget to also install 7.04 fix zip)

And if you use Diana kernel 2.6, you get better performance.
[LG Optimus Black] xmilanz:
thanks a lot, I will try.

(modified: update finished, very easy with amazing effect :) )
[LG Optimus Black] kopaka:
Thanks guys, and btw 7.04 has the best battery performance?
[LG Optimus Black] SaschaKH:
If you want it as stable as it goes and very easy to install go for Zeus 6.4. If you want something with a newer look that is (nearly) as stable go for Zeus 7.04f. 7.04 seems to have even a little better battery saving.

For instructions how to install it see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21587960&postcount=1 , best instruction there is.

Zeus 6.4 is with Diana kernel v2.3 and 7.04 with v2.6. I think Huexxx sugested to use the new Diana 2.6 even with 6.4. But I think you can use every of those kernels with every of the ROMs.

Not all games are like that. I have a Galaxy Nexus and when you're playing certain games the navigation keys turn into 3 dots and you must double tap them to actually do the command (back,home etc.), some games don't even have the keys appear.

This is my only concern with the phone.

The physical screen has more room on the bottom of the GNex, the SW buttons make the top and bottom even, which is not annoying. The N4 has the same screen side on botkm and top so with the SW buttons it's uneven and very bothersome.

I hope AOKP, CM, or PA comes out soon for the LGNex.

Get a Nexus 7 for games. Its a much better experience
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptir:
If they did that in games, you would be showing/hiding the buttons every time you tried to do something in the game with the touchscreen. The reason they have the soft keys is so that you can have a smaller device compared to the screen size (no physical buttons taking up room). You still get the full size of the screen when it is possible and important (any time you won't be touching the screen, such as watching a movie). A swipe gesture to hide/reveal would be nice, though.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qbsti:
i thinks this is due to the fact, that with the buttons the resolution is exactly 1280/720

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptir:
The buttons reduce the screen in the 1280 direction, not the 768. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Sooo not true, subtract the pixels from the other side. It comes to 1184x768, since the buttons take up 96 pixels, not 48. WHERE do people keep getting 48 from?!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptir:
Probably from Google. The issue is that Google defines it at 48dp (density independent pixels). Since the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 both have 320dpi screens, 48dp = 96 pixels.

By any chance you wouldn't have the 9ft eco friendly charging cord that Verizon sells would you? I have the same issue when I plug in my Razr Maxx with that cord, the phone takes on a mind of its own. I found it to be the plug part of the cord that caused the issue so I used an old charging end on the 9ft data cable and all is good. I am sure it has something to do with the eco friendly part that causes the issue.
