This might be an obvious question but did you go back and check to see if it was still enabled?

Make sure you have Palm swipe to capture checked under settings/motion and leave motions settings on.

While swipe screen shot still works for me. I did notice a new behavior.
Instead of a side to side scan blur it now has a white border flash around the edge of the screen.

Screen off power button delay

Im being extremely picky but im going to ask anyway. Im comming from the s3. And the note2 blows it away In my opinion. Except for this 1 small thing l, and its bugging the crap out of me. When the screen is off and I press the power button why in the world does it take so long for the screen to come on.......I see no reason for it..phone is blazing fast otherwise. Anyone know of a setting for this? Or experiencing the same thing?

Scrolling issues in browser

Okay so its very annoying I'm running running he latest omega v7.3 now but its happened on a few other ROMs as well unless it has to do with 4.1.2 but anyways while in the browser it happens a lot when scrolling with ONE finger my thumb sometimes it zooms in or zooms out for no reason like I put another finger on the screen when I didn't. Anyone know what this issue is?

Anyone else have this issue?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
ROFL
This is because you holding it with one hand & it touches the screen from two points, 1 your thumbtip. 2 your thumb base
So when you scroll it looks like you are zooming in or out
Happened with me but i figured out why is it happening by taking side view when holding it with one hand
Hope i helped you

This confused me lots when I first installed 4.1.2. I thought the touchscreen was playing up and not registering my input correctly. Then I finally realised it was zooming on the edges of the screen. Very useful when using the S Pen otherwise just a little annoying. It would be good if it could be enabled only when the pen is out.
Does it only happen on 4.1.2?

fixed wake button lag in lte update

Hey all, the wake button lag was my #1 complaint about this awesome device. Maddening! I did the MB4 update to see if Albuquerque had lte yet (nope) but got this totally wicked surprise. Its close enough to instant wake now, before the wait was uncomfortably long. So even if you don't leave lte yet, don't wait for the ota just let kies make your phone better
Not really I still got the lag

Weird. Mine went from at least half a second to almost instant.
mine's pretty quick now
S Note is so much better as well. Opens the instant you press the button. The new widget is amazing as well. I love the update.
The only thing I'm worried about is the battery drain issue that came along with this update with the other carriers Note 2, S3 and other devices. Anyone notice it?

Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
I've been reading about people saying the lag is gone but I still have it as well, when I press the power button there is like a .5 second delay before the screen actually turns on (has always been like this).
My lag is now gone also. It act's as if you press it twice because task manager comes up quickly.

I don't really have a feel for it yet, but I did notice more heat which implies faster drain.

So I'm not the only one who's been having this happen? It's actually kind of annoying that the task manager keeps popping up when I hit the home button. I thought it was only me but is there a fix for this or anything to stop it?
I'm having the same stupid issue! Man is it irritating.
This is the actual fix guys. See the screen shot. All you have to do is uncheck the home button activation for svoice. This has been a known issue since the S3

That only affects pressing the home button not the lock screen lag.

Unchecking that svoice option helped with the task manager issue but I still see some lag with either button.

I remember reading another thread when the note 2 came out. Someone mentioned that it was an exynos processor issue. I'll have to find the original thread.

I doubt it. When I'm on the stock ROM I have the wake up lag. When I'm on any CM based ROM there is no lag.

what do you launch with your quickbutton?

currently have mine set to none.
tried the camera but i seem to keep accidently pushing the button which is weird because i have to press firmly and accurately to click the power button
Camera. Makes burst mode easier.
Google Now. After hitting the button I say "Google" and speech recog starts right up.

Quick memo takes a screen shot, and it is programmed to the button by default. Simply hit the save icon and select gallery to save the shot to your sd card.

Would be great that the button wake the phone and launch the app! !
Voice search. Thinking about changing it though, not sure if I need that there. Not sure what else to put there though.

Dirt in the home button (white version)

I had dirt in the device since day 1, but now it's just getting really annoying seeing it. It's a little black spot on the top inside of my home button. I tried scratching it out but I couldn't, any advice on how to take it out?
