[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zaron DarkStar:
I don't even get 30 at a time every time.

I WISH I could consistently restore 30 apps at a time! It has happened to me on the FIRST APP, the third app, the 5th app, the 10th app, sometimes it gets as far as 45 apps before it freezes, but that is rare. I currently have 174 non-system apps that I use, and that's after a holiday clean out of apps I was saving but not really using. Many of them are games ( I am a heavy gamer), so they are large apps that take a while to restore even if it is successful, so when it looks like it might be frozen I have to wait to see if it's just taking a while, or if it's really frozen. So identifying a freeze takes even longer and is that much more frustrating.

Anyway, my bug is back with a vengeance. I thought I was in the clear when I couldn't replicate the bug, so I just started setting up a fresh install of Next Launcher. However, after loading up the home screens with my app icons, the bug reared it's ugly head again. At this point I am so frustrated that I might just go back to stock rooted, since that was reliable, and just use root to mod in the things I really care about. If anyone out there who is a Next Launcher user tries this ROM, has this problem, and reads my posts, please message me! Maybe we can figure this out.

Other information that may be useful replicating the bug: For the built in ROM mods, I have customized the status bar. I disabled 3minit, enabled Miui battery bar, and changed the color of everything to a blue theme. Screen off effect is fade, nav bar is disabled, lockscreen widgets are disabled, restart menu on lockscreen enabled, home button wakes the phone, boot animation is Dynamic Thunder Kat Blue, I didn't change any of the Touchwiz launcher options, I am using the surround sound stock level sound mod, grid UI in settings, default recents, VoLTE and tether are both enabled and I never changed my APN settings; they were always default. NFC with screen off is disabled. Xposed modules I use are BootManager, MW manager, PlayPermissionsXposed, Wanam Xposed, XPrivacy, and YouTube AdAway. I don't use Greenify because I don't have any apps that I have installed but don't want running in the background. I had not looked into/activated Viper4Android yet. I changed some of the system sounds to various video game sound effects to make the phone more interesting. I have about 174 user apps, most of which got a spot on one of the various home screens in the 3D scene mode of Next Launcher. Yes this can be a bit laggy, but it is smooth enough most of the time, and I am more about the features and bells and whistles and impressive "wow" factor. In any case this phone is/should be easily capable of this. With Titanium Backup I have frozen: 3minit (prefer battery bar and just the %), Downloads(I use ES downloader), Email (I use Gmail), GALAXY apps(I use the Play store if I need an app store), Google Play Games(don't use it), Google Play Music, Google+, Hangouts (the Play store is pretty much the only Google app I use), S Finder, and S Health.

Is this combination of changes/apps a bad thing? I dunno, but I had no problem with it on stock.
