Anyone having touch screen issues?

This usually happens to my phone whenever I use an AOSP rom (AOKP, CM7, CM9, etc). But whenever I use a Sense based rom, the issues vanish. It usually happens when I'm trying to type something out or play games on the phone. Anyone else having similar issues?

I think that was a known issue. You could try flashing Aero's kernel, 0.7 for GB and the new v10 or 10.5 for ICS. Hope that helps.
Here's the link to the ICS kernels.

This is the link to the GB kernel.

Right, I am using the v10 kernel for CM9 and this is happening. (Not going to use the 10.5 because data goes all wonky in it).
EDIT: I think you're referring to the multi touch issues in the CM7 AOSP roms. I'm talking about certain areas of the screen not responding from time to time.

No touch issues. It would help if you could explain just a little.

Every time I touch my screen..it responds perfectly! That's my issue! J/k

I think my words are pretty clear. The touch issues persist whenever I'm on an AOSP rom (right now, I'm using CM9), and the issues continue to bug me whenever I'm playing a game or typing a message. It's happening whenever I use the stock kernel or Aero's v10 kernel.

was just about to make a post...
i too am experiencing touch issues. only time i really see it is at the bottom of the screen, for isntance, typing and trying to hit space or shift. also in draw soemthing, i cannot select the smallest width paintbrush. so that area seems to be culprit
::::edit should note that im on cm9, aosp, 10.5 now and will report back, those issues were in aokp with v10
;;;;same problem. seems like the problem area is about 1cm up from the softbuttons
further testing reveals that in landscape that area of the screen has no problems, so its not hardware based (right?)

I believe there isn't a stable one yet. There is one decent one, but you can't get it on here. I forget the dudes name. He use to be on here but left.

Jb roms here are all having the similar issues.. Either screen flickering or random reboots / sleep of death.. That is when your phone reboots on its own but never completely boots and need to be manually restarted.. If you can deal with any of those problems then you've ill be very happy with any jb rom you try.. I am running aokp and am very happy with it atm

I've been running the aokp since build 1 and i haven't switched back to gb or ics since i think it's a huge difference from both. I like it a lot, it's very smooth, the flicker can be get rid of by choosing a few options in settings like disable hw overlay, which completely gets rid of the flicker for me. I don't use google now but the search works yeah. I get random reboots and either pull the battery or wait a few seconds and then hold down the power button until it restarts, but it doesn't bother me as much it rarely happens at important times, usually it happens after i lock the phone and put it in my pocket. Also it freezes sometimes too but not too often.

I've been using AOKP as a DD for a while now I love it. I would suggest flashing the newest nightly (9-18). It's all about preference with ROMs, I love all the ways to customize AOKP.
It's like I tell everyone though, just flash it and test it out for yourself. Always make a nandroid just incase if you don't like it you can always flash back... no harm no foul. Ever since JB leaks I haven't gone back to anything else.
You won't be disappointed. Just follow the instructions and read up on the threads before posting questions/problems because if you experience an issue chances are other people have as well and there's a fix.
Have fun!!!

Reflash... sometimes these things happen don't sweat it your phone isn't broke. I flashed an earlier build 5 or 6 times until it worked correctly.
If at first you don't succeed.....

I've just switched to ericwill's CM10 build from AOKP due to SOD issues and battery life issues.
No RR or SOD yet and greatly improved battery life so far. Been running for about 18 hours.
As a side note, I much prefer AOKP for its customization, but I'll take stability over customization any day.
Of course, YMMV.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989

I ran CM10 09_17 and AOKP 09_18 got RR on both and SOD on CM10, then i tried Paranoid 2.13(CM10) and its been great!! atm am on 26hrs uptime with no issues.

I've run BinaryBishops, AOKP, CM10, and now Paranoid 2.13 which I've been running around 27-28 hours uptime. Only one I haven't experienced any reboots or sod or any of the like was Binarys' but Paranoid is the smoothest by far. Camera, music, keyboard all super responsive, no lag I've noticed at all. Running stock Trebuchet and haven't gutted it like I normally would, delete what I don't use and the like. Binarys night lies seem to be on hold for whatever reason

I know you guys are looking for ways to eliminate flickering on cm9 but the cm10 flickering issue has many different solutions. I am quite sure they can be attempted on cm9 as well. First off though I think you guys should list what you have done to remedy the situation so people just don't inform you of what you already tried.

That's the thing.. its an issue with cm9 itself. I've tried disabling gpu rendering, flashing that useless gpu mod, fully wiping with both trwp and cwm6 touch.. not sure what else I can do.

Interesting... I just flashed cm9 9-30 nightly last night and i don't experience this screen flickering, or at least i'm not noticing it if it's happening.
I'm using sk8's cwm6.0.1.4 and I just followed the instructions on TC's webpage. And I just came from erick's cm10 9-28 nightly. Don't know if this'll help, but that's what I did and I don't see any screen flickering. What's the best way to reproduce this issue? I can try and report back if I see it or not.

Go into your settings, pull your notifications down half way then swipe them back up. The screen should flicker black.

Yup, I'm also seeing a small flicker as well. I couldn't get it reproduced every time, but if I played around with the notification pull down about half way and then swiped them back up, the screen does flicker black.
Is it only from settings that you see this? I tried from my home screen, and I didn't see any flicker.
EDIT: If I go only 1/3 of 1/4 of the way with the pull down in Settings, I can reproduce the flicker every time I believe.

It happens in all apps except the homescreen. For me, it does not matter if you pull it 1/3 or 1/4 or 1/2 or all the way down... the chance of it flickering when you drag it back up is about 20%
edit: I have the 9/30/12 nightly build installed. The flickering is not an issue for me and I use this ROM as my daily driver.

Same here. it appears randomly for me. i see no trend. also at times my data stays on E. but overall i love it.

Try adjusting the build.prop entry below:

Extreme Battery Drain While Using Browsers

Anyone else experience this? I've been noticing that my % will drop about every minute when using the stock browser, Chrome or Firefox. The battery also gets super hot when Firefox runs. It almost seems like both cores are online when they don't need to be.
Is there a way to get better cpu utilization and battery life while using a browser?

(Q) CHUNKENESS (LAG) on all roms and stock....why?

I just did a full unroot twice and being on stock seems somewhat smoother and less "chunky" than any of thr custom roms I have tried. All clean installs. I would appreciate any idea why I still have stutters and not fluid motions on anything.

This rom when installed correctly blows stock out of the water. Add the Nova launcher..and tweak the settings...and you will see exactly what I mean.Use the latest TWRP..and wipe correctly...and you won't want to go back to stock...ever.
He has a new update coming soon...which will add even more to it.
No need to go full unroot if you have Triangle away & TWRP

No issues here with any of 3 different roms. What apps are you running or is it like this immediately after flashing? sounds like something is running in the background causing your problem. Is media scan running constantly? Need more info on what is going on in the background to diagnose.

The stock rom is chunky. ..it's full of bloat. ..
Most custom roms are de-bloated already.
Sounds like he had a bad install. ..and flashed a stock rooted rom...

Maybe try to reduce the Animated Scale setting under Settings - Developer Options from 1x to 0.5x or below? Toggle GPU rendering setting in there as well.
I also agree that a lot is dependent on your launcher. Nova is good to compare too *only* if you optimize it's settings to set all to "Faster than light"

I'm on the newest version of CleanRom. I much prefer it to stock. There are a lot of features I can't live without. Still, the price you pay is with scrolling. It's jerky compared to stock, especially when you are slow scrolling. Fast scrolling is not an issue.

Yeah, I don't know what you talking about. I'm running Jedi X6.1.2 and I don't feel a performance difference, but I do have a lot of nice goodies stock doesn't have.

OP should make a video to show people his problem
I experience none of that with jedi or cleanrom

I know what he means. I also started a thread about jerky scrolling. Some people seem to have decent eyes they just dont realize or never seen a fluid scrolling capable samsung rom. My stock browser is buttery smooth even with heavy picture loaded wep pages. However tapatalk and facebook and some apps are super jerky. Even setting menu of phone is very jerky. Unbelievable. They are jerky when u scroll only with medium speed. If you scroll very slow or very fast its smooth.
This is very annoying for me. So I flashed every available rom and kernel and tried every rom/kernel combo. I think I found the solution.
Seems like The problem is caused by cpu governer + rom type. So I tried some stock roms that are very smooth and that are jerky.
I got the best scrolling with note2core kernel and ONLY IF you select iNTERACTIVE governer. Perseus and other kernels only have pegasusq governer. Once I made it interactive they all became super smooth.
If you are running perseus kernel or such u can also test this by selecting "performance" governer. It basically keeps your cpu in highest level. And your scrolling becomes buttery smooth.
It has something to do with cpu levels I guess. With pegasusq there is not much load to trigger higher cpu levels so it uses low levels.
I suggest you to try note2core with interactive governer.

the lag should be enough, i did it on my galaxy s3 i had one that seemed to have alot of micro lag......if they can see it they should replace it. Most likely they will ask you to show them the problem, tell them you have a friend with the note 2 and you dont see any of this on his phone and think that it must be a bad unit. they should just replace it if its within the alotted time. just keep complaining you didnt pay that much money for a device to be as laggy as a last years gen phone and so on blah blah blah.....they should give you a new one.
