S Note lag - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I'm using the s note quite a lot to draw, and can't help to notice that whenever I'm using the pen tool and I click on it again to change to a different pen, it takes quite sometime to open up, like 4 seconds or so, is this the same universally?

Hi so do I check both boxes? Will this increase battery drain by a lot?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app

I don't see any significant battery drain when GPU rendering is enabled.

Dosnt that just drain your battery?
No. It forces the GPU to run instead of the CPU. It works in a similar way as when you run a game, the GPU controls all the graphics while the CPU handles the rest. So the GPU should be used to handle the GUI, not the CPU handling processes and GUI. And leave the GPU doing barely any work.
Also certain apps will not run correctly, like the XDA app

Not only does it not do much it screws up allot of apps. If it was all that great it would be checked by default.

I really do not know what you guys are talking about. I have that option turned on right now, and it works PERFECT. Also, did you know the developers enabled that on GB? But did it do anything bad to the phone? No. Did you guys agree? Yes.

i think it is the default for aokp... i just looked and it was checked on my phone and i don't remember doing it (and i just flashed an updated build yesterday).
I've been using that setting for a couple days now. I've notice no ill effects. Seems fine.

Some pics don't show up in the xda app regardless, that has been an issue for awhile now. Has nothing to do with having that checked.
Are you saying it happens more often with it checked?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The app itself should be optimize to take use of it. If an app can do it, it will automatically do it. I personally recommend leaving it unchecked for various reasons such as the picture problem stated above as well as not every app is coded to work with it properly.
Using the latest XDA app, premium or free.. do you guys still get notified whether its message or thread subscription??? After updating to ICS, I noticed it doesnt notify me anymore..
Idk what you guys are talking about. I've had ICS since the nexus s and ALWAYS tick 2d gpu with every flash. Its become second nature for me. It forces gpu acceleration throughout. There's absolutely no harm done by this. And if you say there is, send a log cat of the error to the dev because its the roms fault.

[Q] There is no USB debugging after upgraded to takju-jop40c

I upgraded GN to takju-jop40c. and can not locate the path to enable USB debugging under the path "Settings"-->“Developer options" because there is no the path "Settings"-->“Developer options"
Anyone would advise me the reason? Any mistake I did when upgraded to JOP40C?

it`s absolutely vital to the phone, is one of the main cores of the android system.. i cant recall exactly what is doing tho, but i remember that you cant disable, or anything like that.. from what i have read other ppls using different roms seem to have the same problem with netd eating up the cpu, and some of them said that it was somewhat related to some specific governors...so try to switch from whatever governor you are now to a different one and see if it helps
the thing is, that the lib isnt needed for gio/ace/mini/fit ...
Maybe the try to load it makes more ram consumption, but it can be easy disabled in source

It has something to do with the wifi interface. I had netd-hangs everytime I had wifi & 3G on while no known wifi network was around me. Since I'm disabling wifi when I leave home, I didn't had any hangs anymore. Changing governor doesn't help, tested by myself.

Samsung Dock - Wallpaper

For the life of me I cannot figure out why a generic wallpaper starts running about 10 minutes or so after I place my phone on the Samsung Galaxy Multimedia Desktop Charging Dock.
I've disabled the option for my phone to go to sleep within the Developer options but that doesn't appear to have fixed it. I would prefer to have my phone's screen stay off while it's on the dock, but I can't figure out how.
Anyone have any luck or experience with this dock and keeping the phone screen from turning on for a wallpaper?
thanks!
It might be the daydreaming option.

You wouldn't happen to know where to disable this option would you? I can't find it anywhere. I'm running stock 4.1.1
I'd also like to know how to disable this.

No ideas? Not only is this annoying but while this stupid screensaver thingy is running my phone gets pretty warm.
Look under settings ->accessory and see if adjusting those settings helps. Maybe it's the home screen one listed in there
