Hey guys,
Is anyone else experiencing constant restarting of the TouchWiz launcher? It always seems to happen whenever I leave an app to go the main screen the launcher always seem to restart itself. Is there something in the settings I'm missing? I happened to like this launcher a lot, just the restarting drives me crazy lol :laugh:. It's never like a smooth transition from app to home screen. Thanks guys
Try in developers options changing windows animation scale and transition animation scale to .5 or even off.

I did changed the windows animations scale, but is still doing it. My guess is a launcher issue.

Are you running stock? Rooted? CM10?

I was running stock, but I decided to factory reset and I believe that might've fixed the constant launcher refreshing. So far is running smoother now. Weird

reinstall apps one by one, and see what happens. It could be an app messing with it

never had that happen.. full wipe and reset or flash another rom.

Yeah that is exactly what I did and the phone is running much better than before. It was just so annoying because I just got this phone like days ago and I wasn't really expecting something like this from one of the best phones in the market right now. I believe it all started when I restored all my apps when I first logged into the phone.

Did you restore any system apps?
This happens to me maybe one in 10-20 times I use the task switcher soft key. I press the key, press the task I wish to switch to, and another task launches instead. It's always one that is in the switcher, sometimes a very recent one, like 3rd up the list, but sometimes it's from a while ago, like 10 up the list. Had this issue on multiple roms and kernels.
Anyone else?

I'm seriously the only one, or is this already discussed somewhere?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I haven't seen this discussed before which probably means it isn't a common issue. Have you tried asking in the thread of whatever rom you are using ?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I don't know if you're the only one, but its certainly never happened to me. Always opens the app I touch. I'm going to guess if you're not the only one you're definitely one of a rare few, as I've never seen anyone else state such a problem.

Happens to my on AOKP JB Build 4. Either that or it doesn't switch the app (although the app switcher goes away). Usually happens with YouTube though, whether I'm switching from/to YouTube.
I'm on affinity right now, but it's also happened to me on liquid smooth. I will ask in appropriate thread, just wanted to see if it was known or not.

I've had it happen on both my N7 and Gnex. Both running different ROMs
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It happens to me. I always thought it was because I wasn't allowing enough time for the task switcher list to "refresh". Ok, so lets say you click task switch button.. back out... then open an app... now tap task switch and select one of the apps really quickly - what happens is that it chooses the wrong one because it hasn't had a chance to refresh. It's like the graphical front end is different than the touch event for a split second before it refreshes the list of recent apps.
What I usually do is wait a second or two before choosing the app and this seems to have solved this problem for me... but it seems that the device shouldn't show anything until everything is completely refreshed. I seem to think this is where they were allowed to make the recent apps list open faster than it did in ICS. ICS opened up a refreshed list but JB opens faster and the list isn't totally refreshed behind the scenes.
That's a good observation. I started waiting a second or two before switching, and now it works good. I noticed I have to wait longer if my phone is lagging a bit or I have a few heavy apps running. Wish it would just work but oh well.

Just like to add, I have the same problem... I'll try the patience .
There is a pretty good article explaining that behaviour on AndroidPolice.
(at least for those instances where it is not caused by some weird lag that some of you described)
Happens to me all of the time, I just recently started giving it a second before giving it a nice strong touch. 4.2 issue I assume?
This problem happens to me as well. I'm running Android 4.1.2 on a Motorola D3

Hi guys hope this isnt a fault with jellybean. When I want to delete an empty home screen touchwiz crashes. Before anyone says I have go launcher which I shouldnt have to use. Does this happen to anyone else?
This is going on for me too.. I try to delete a home screen and touch wiz force closes.. Nothing I've done fixes the problem.

Has not happened to me. I just tried it out. I am running stock Jelly Bean and am not rooted and do not have any mods at this time.

I have fixed it. I had my transitions set to none in developer options settings. I set it to 0.5 and rebooted and bingo it all works properly again and I can delete homescreens. Bye bye go launcher.
My new Note 2 will not remember default apps. For example, if I install a home screen replacement, every time I hit the home button it asks me to select which to use. Every time I click on a link it asks "Complete action using" with a list off all usable apps. Even when I select always after picking the app. It's done it on 2 different roms. I'm on Jedi-x3.1 atm.
Anybody have any suggestions? It's very annoying.
My first instinct would be to clear cache but I'm new to all this stuff so I may not even be close to right.

I'm thinking it would make more sense to ask in the rom thread if you're not running stock.

I get that on media files. Modded 7501 rom.
When these ROMs first came out the buttons were reversed. Try hitting the other button. This has been fixed, as far as I know

I am totally stock and I am having the same issue.

Probably not much use to anybody else with this problem but I've managed to make it stop by flashing a different ROM.
Every time I reboot my Glide, the phone automatically goes to LauncherPro (good!). However, when I tap the home key (even if I am focused on LPP), I get prompted to change the default launcher. Every time, I tap the checkbox for default, and select LPP. All is well, until I reboot my phone, and the whole process starts over again. Any suggestions?
There should be a lil box asking if u wanna keep said launcher as default...
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app
As I said above, I always click the default launcher checkbox. And on every reboot, it is unset.
Have you tried freezing the offending launcher? If you don't even use it. Then you could even delete the launcher? Problem solved. why keep two launchers in the first place...
Sent from my SGH-i927 using xda premium
I am on an unrooted stock ICS rom, and freezing TwLauncher is disabled (button greyed) through the settings/applications/all menu.
That's your problem. A solution for stock may be a lot harder to come by. The stock launcher will always try to resurface like that. It also still uses its resources.
Sent from my SGH-i927 using xda premium
Is that new to the ICS update? This never happened under the last two versions of GB for the Glide...
