I have SM-P605 (LTE version) running on BMJ9 (also tried few others before it) but the only thing I do seem to resolve and iritate me is the amount of time it takes to come whenever I pick it up. It is the same whether I use the home or the power button. I have switched off lock screen effect, I even switched off lock screen all together but the screen still wakes up sometimes after 2-4 seconds of pressing the button. Otherwise, it is not laggy in general.
Any ideas and wise words?
Cheers.

Have you tried disabling the home button from bringing up My Magazine? Either hit the home button from home screen or swipe up to launch My Magazine, then go into settings via the left capacitive button to left of home button and uncheck "open using the home key".

Thanks mate. Done that even disabled the svoice getting launched from the home button. THis behaviour is the same using TW or Apex.
This right here is why I returned it. No matter what I did, even using the Samsung Book Cover, nothing worked.
Drove me crazy til I finally had enough and exchanged it for the iPad Air.
If this issue gets fixed, I'd probably pick it up again.

It is driving me nuts! but it is my dislike of ipad and believe some xda developer (and or samsung) will come up with a solution that is making me keep this otherwise wonderful tablet.

I'm not a fan of iPad either but I got sick of opening the cover and always saying, "Ok, hold on a minute" when wanting to show it to someone.
You'd think this expensive spec beast would be able to wake up as fast as a dumb tablet with a third of its RAM. IPad is an instant wake.
Do you have power savings mode disabled?
Do you a micro SD card installed? If so, temporarily remove it and see if it makes a difference. Also, note the brand, model and speed class. And, did you format it in the device you're using?
Downgrading to a child's iPad with DRAM limitations and crashes is not an option for a lot of us.
it's a "feature" of the exynos processor. it puts itself into a deep sleep that has a slight delay when waking up. just about every exnyos4 and higher have the "feature".

Ummm...it's not limited to exynos processors my friend. It also happens on the snapdragon variants as well.
Just go in Developer Options and check box the option for "Force GPU Rendering". That did the trick for me so hopefully it'll work for you guys too.

After todays firmware update it starts up a lot faster. Now I think it's acceptable but Samsung can do better. Had the same issue on my "old" Note 2, but after a few firmware updates the problem disapered. I'm hopeful.

And some games it resets them to the beginning. Very irritating.
It's probably also worth noting that, even with Mango's fast task switching, apps may need to be updated to take full advantage of it.
If an app doesn't know about the new dormant app model, then when you switch to it, it may behave the same way it does today as far as thinking it needs to rehydrate its saved state (or restart completely). It will probably still be faster than it is today, even in a worst case scenario, but apps that are updated with the new dormant model will be instantaneous.

I find that actually it's the exact opposite.
When I want it to rotate, I need to wait ages (sometimes tapping the screen while waiting makes it faster).
When I lie in bed, it very often rotates when I don't want it to, and then I wait ages for it to switch back to the previous mode.
That pretty much forces me to disable automatic rotation every time I am in the bed. Whatever they tried to achieve with this, either they failed completely or I am somehow mysteriously missing the point..

Mine has been staying, and being used to the HTC Desire spinning instantly it was a bit strange at first. As regards to the tapping, there are some modes where tapping is what rotates it and it wont until you do.

Anyone notice it takes about 3 seconds to get to the home screen from off by pressing the fingerprint scanner? Is it just me? When I press the home button it takes about 1 to 2 seconds for the screen to turn on. Then I get a choppy animation for another 1 or 2 seconds before getting to the home screen. How about you. Can you guys press on your home button and count how long it take to gets to the home screen? Sometimes I count to 5...
Im a bit concerned since I'm also experiencing frame drops with my Gear VR and that never happened with my s6e or my s7e.
Need to know if it's common or if it's my device.

Same here. I'm really worried though because the lag was there in safe mode which means it's not caused by a third party app. Which means that even if I do a factory reset it WILL COME back.

From what I read, s voice causes the slow down with the home button. Disable s voice and it should be more responsive. Issue dating back to the note 3

That's pretty much the first thing I did. Actually it's not specific to s-voice its due to the fact that you can double press the home button, used to be for s-voice now for the camera. Whenever you press the home button once the phone waits for a potential 2nd press therefore causing the delay. Technically disabling any double home button press action should make it faster but it's still just a tiny bit faster.
I would like if there was an option to bypass the lock screen and go straight to the home screen.

It's pretty buggy if you don't give it full control or whatever its called. Involves plugging in computer and executing a file on phone. Cause otherwise it launches bixby for a split second and is pretty annoying. And for the flashlight, sure you don't need it all the time but it dos have its uses once in a while. The better features for me is pause music, skip song and importantly launch google assistant instead of bixby

Yea I executed that file with adb and the phone connected originally, I set it up via the instructions but it wanted to do something other than I told it to
The button is just in an awkward place for me, I press it whenever I pick up the phone, or press the power button, they've placed it in such a position that they get a load of stats saying it's being used 10x more than it really is due to accidental presses, similar to when Microsoft changed the X close button to OK Accept for upgrading to 10 and claimed it was a mistake
Above the volume up or above the power key would have been a better place, somewhere you only press it when you mean to
If I map it for flashlight or anything else I'm gonna get sick of constantly accidentally launching whatever I map it to
Maybe in 12 months when the novelty of a new phone has worn off I`ll start playing about with it but quite happy to have it do nothing atm
I never had the chance to try this on my S7, so it's a breath of fresh air on my S9. Trying everything now to see what I'll keep. So far the lockscreen options are nice indeed.

Hopefully it will be, it's a good app, best for custom without root, the other apps are good also, the newer edge lighting has more effects, and also a routine app, one handed mode + and edge touch which I not used yet.
Thanks for the links! After installing all the apps I found that I preferred the way Samsung gave me my device!
However I've still retained one hand operation +, edge lighting plus and quickstar. The rest of the apps didn't seem to attract me much.
Thanks again!

So I have a very weird issue and I'll try to explain the best I can;
For some reason, ever since the S10+ I've had issues with Samsung phones, I think its something to do with the proximity sensor that's now under the glass, I'll explain as I'm getting similar and more issues on my S20 Ultra.
So last year when I had an S10+ and when I was on a call, which I mainly use my left ear (I think my right ear is a few db less so I use my left) I would quite frequently seem to activate the menu (top right) and therefore end up pressing things with my ear, unbeknown to me, sometimes I'd add a 2nd person to the call or simply put the other person on hold! This happened a lot and I was close to sending it off for repair even though I used apps to test to ensure the proximity sensor was working correctly but in the end, I sold it and got an OnePlus 7 Pro, which I didn't have an issue with. During my time with the S10+ I noticed that even though I held the earpiece to my ear I could see the screen light up and that's where I think I'd end up pressing the screen accidentally as I've just explained.
Roll on to now where I'm facing similar issues but also I'm finding if I need both of my hands and therefore use my left shoulder to keep my phone against my ear the call disconnects as if I'm hanging up. Now it seems a straightforward resolution which is not to do that but I've never had this issue before and I've tested it out quite a bit when I do this the screen isn't on and my face is nowhere near the end button!! It's really driving me crazy at the moment and annoying my other half who's normally on the phone to me when this happens!!
Anyone got any suggestions or thoughts, does it happen to anyone else or am I just being stupid??
I haven't gone down the route of resetting the phone yet but I'm going to consider it.
