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.

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
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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.

Hey all,
I get FCs when I exit from an app that has left a folder open. I want to stay on Touchwiz cuz I like the widgets but this is becoming frustrating.
Anyone else experiencing this? I have latest fw but it did this with original stock too...
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
it happens to me also, but not every time. if i quit an application by tapping multiple time and quickly on the back key the TW will crash
Yeah it would be better if the folder closed before opening an app. I wonder how often Sammy update TW with fixes. I might move to another launcher cuz I can't have a blemish on this baby

Got the same issue mate.

Same issue here, already tried to reduce Animation Duration Scale to 0.5. Will try to disable and see if it solves that crash.
I'd like to auto close folders either... This bug is getting really annoying.
Hi All,
I am in the UK and have a new 16GB White unbranded unlocked Note 2 running stock JB 4.1.1, the device has never been modified or rooted. When I go into aerial view and attempt to drag a home screen into the trash I get a Force Close in Touchwiz which restarts and the home screen remains in place. I have tried format of cache in recovery but it made no difference. I don't want to do a factory reset and lose my stuff, but will do if thats the only fix. Do I have any other options? Has anybody got this problem and did you resolve it?
Thanks for any replies
Phil

That happened to me when i diasbled animations in settings, development options, always enable them from 0,5 or higher.
Anyone found a solution to this problem. I had disabled animations from the "Developer Options" previously. I have enabled them now but I am still getting the crash.
Try reboot in recovery and wipe cache and reboot.

Thank you. This fixed the same problem on my galaxy S3.
I have an issue with my s3. Everytime I reboot my phone the keyboard that I have goes back to stock swype keyboard.. I have a purchased version of smart keyboard pro.. it it annoys me to have to go back to settings and have to change it all over again.
I know its not a flaw with smart keyboard pro.. it never gave me that problem with my other phones..
Does anyone know how to fix it?

I figured out a temp fix by freezing the stock "samsung Keyboard" with Titanium backup pro & selecting Siftkey keyboard in regular settings.

I think it's just part of JB kinda like the annoying input method on the notification every time you type. Happens on stock too just try to not reboot so much or freeze keyboard like other dude stated
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
When I was on the stock ROM, I also solved this by freezing the stock keyboard.
I found on Frosty JB (stock rooted, debloated ROM) that it doesn't reset like stock does.
It's little stuff like this where rooting shows its strength and usefulness.

I've had this happen since the JB update, too. I think it's a "feature" that requires a work-around like the freezing of the stock keyboard like mentioned.

There's an app in the Play store that fixes this problem: http://goo.gl/Yyha9

Just change the keyboard to system app
through. Titanium backup. Or toolbox
and change the keyboard to default!!
On official 4.4.2 and im not getting screen rotation?? On OG kernel, but custom rom. Is this the rom, kernel, or did I break it somehow?

I noticed the same thing happening to me , but I think is exposed framework , are you using that? I flashed a romantic a my rotation works once I install exposed then it breaks .

I think it's kitkat. i'm on stock rooted with the stock kernel i posted but still no rotation on the homescreen, but works on everything else.
Yea I'm trying. It's being stupid

I didn't know stock Touchwiz allowed landscape rotation without tweaks. Of course, that's usually one of the first thing I dump in favor of Nova or Apex anyway.
Yeah. Never heard of TW rotating on its own. There should be a mod and if don't work. It don't work. Having rotation on TW launcher suckss anyways

Wait... Are we talking rotation on the homescreen with no apps open? TouchWiz never did that. At least not stock out of the box. If were talking within apps then yes, it should rotate, if you have it enabled in the settings. Otherwise it will stay in portrait (or landscape) at all times.

I am having the same issue with both the odin and flashable versions. It works for a while, but then stops working. Really annoying! I am not using the exposed framework or modules, purely stock. Are you removing any apps? That is the only thing I do, but nothing I know to be related.
I'm not sure if this is it, or my "fix" will help, but maybe when updating to KK the phone wasn't level, and the compass/gyroscope calibrated itself to be off center. I don't have any issues with rotation, but what I did when I updated was I opened Bubble Level, and noticed it wasn't "level", so I reset the calibrations for the entire phone, and then put it on a level surface, and re-calibrated it, and now when I open the app on a level surface it is spot on. Maybe give that a try. Here is the app I used.

It's funny because that app and the camera app rotate just fine, but nothing else does; not gallery, chrome or anything else I try that regularly rotates. It's definitely wanam or xposed, ran fine until I installed them.

I still have rotation issues. I found with youtube if you make it full screen it will automatically rotate, but you have to hold it all weird for it to stay in landscape lol.

I don't think is wanam or xposed. It must have something to do with an app that I am uninstalling with Titanium Backup. I am currently running Vision X N3 - Tmobile and have been doing some testing. If I uninstall my usual 60 apps that that include S Health and the related sensor app, my auto rotation will stop working. However, if i don't debloat then no issues. I have been running the bloated version for a day or so and rotation still works. I am going to try leaving S health and the related sensor app to see what happens. On 4.3 I would always remove both apps and never had an issue. Oh, and wanam and xposed are pre-installed on the rom. I don't use them, but they are pre-installed.
So, do you debloat, and if so; do you remove S health and its related sensor app?
