[Q] Lag going from Portrait to landscape - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I have been having this issue since I got my Note 3 last week. It happens no matter what rom I am using.
My Note has a lag when going from portrtait to landscape when I turn the device. The lag is about 3 seconds and is very annoying. Does anyone else have this issue? Is it just the way it is or is there a adjustment in the settings I do not see? Like I said it happens no matter what rom I am running even stock.
Thank you very much.
Jeff

My stock rooted Note 3 does not have a lag switching. Might be you have some app that is causing the issue.

Yep, rooted stock on mine is maybe half a second.

Turn off the 'smart rotation' feature. I did this and it solved my issue.

Yup this would do it. Had the same happened to my s4 when I had it on. It checks to see your head orientation prior to changing.

Yup that was the issue. Didn't even know I had it on.
Thank you

I think it is on by default

SGS3 will not rotate. Please help!

I am a new SGS3 owner coming from the OG Evo and I've never really ran into a problem like this. My phone will not go into Landscape/On its side at all. I tried everything I know of and I'm stuck. I pulled down the notification bar and switch the toggle, went into settings and display and unchecked auto-rotate, wiped both caches, fixed permissions, formatted the entire phone (internal, external, sd-ext). I'm absolutely stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

My stock launcher would never rotate, but apps would. I installed nova prime launcher and it auto rotates like normal.

I was going to say return it because it's covered by the Samsung warranty which will cover any hardware issues which you are having. Play temple run and see if your tilt will work. But unfortunately you rooted your phone therefore breaking warranty

I was actually just about to Odin back to stock, and now the rotation works. It did drop on the floor, not far at all, before I turned it on. So it has to be a hardware problem. But hey, it works now! Lol

Has anyone found a fix for their screen staying on?

I know its been reported with jelly bean that the screen is unable to turn off normally and you have to push the power button to turn it off. Currently the only fix I know of is a reboot. Anyone with any other tips??
Mine works fine, did you flash any mods or some kind of lock screen app?

Yes, I'm on Wicked Sensations v1.2 right now. But i've read that a few people have been having this issue with JB. I just started using XDA so I can't post on the OP yet so thats why I posted here. Was just hoping for some feedback and opinions. I have flashed a few mods on it, but none seem to be the problem...i dont think. haha
Settings > display > screen timeout..
Is it set to 10 minutes? Cause that would do it

I thought that may be been the culprit but the setting was off

I'm having the same problem
I am not rooted and running stock jelly bean (ota version that I installed early because I was too impatient for them to push it to my phone). I have noticed my screen randomly staying on, too. It's very annoying because sometimes I don't notice until my battery is dead. A reboot fixes it temporarily, but I'd love a permanent fix if anyone has any additional ideas! Thanks! I've tried all the obvious settings, but can't figure it out. Is there an app that can help me figure out what the culprit might be?
(And can I just say, an edit to a post ought not fall under the "wait five minute" rule for new posters. Just my two cents .)

Use an app called Stay Awake. Works great for me.

(Q) Super Slow Screen Rotation

I've noticed that if my screen goes off whilst in landscape orientation it takes a full 10 seconds to rotate to portrait. Idon't have any rotation apps or setting turned on so I'm thinking it's native TW issue. Has anyone seen this and/or found a fix?

Yep....I've seen it many times as I run TW based builds...
The only fix I've found is getting away from the stock stuff..
CM/AOKP/AOSP seem to have it fixed, and If we know where to look, I'm sure it's a setting we could change.....(maybe)
TW framework is big...and I have no idea where to start looking......g
I'm a little disappointed, I mean 10 seconds is flat out ridiculous. Everyone keeps saying that this is one of if not the fastest phone out there, but I'm greeted with this unusual issue that bugs the he'll out of me.

You may have some data corruption. ..
Although my screen rotation is slow. ..it's not 10 seconds of slow. ..
Closer to 5 I'd say. ..g

Turning off "Smart Rotation" helped for me.

I've had that turned off, never really mattered to me.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
ah damn, ok. mine seems to be ok so far. i can live with the ocassional lag, i just can't stand it when it gets stuck in one orientation no matter what I do.
I saw this in another thread i think, but there is a market app called Adaptive Rotation Lock. I have it set to Force Auto, and my rotation seems to be about normal! At least i am definitely not getting stuck in one orientation anymore. The bad lag seems to be gone as well, i think. And even the lockscreen works in landscape lol.

[Q] Updated but touch screen off

Note 8 not rooted updated fine but now my touch screen is off (have to touch links below where they are) and Chrome cuts off the top of the screen. It was "suppose" to make it more stable...
Sounds like your image is offset in some way. What have you tried to resolve it so far? Reboot? Wipe cache?

Rebooted, of course. Wiped cache. But that's about all you can do. I thought there was a calibration process in Settings but, if there is, it eludes me. I can't even get the S-pen to calibrate. I suppose I could do a factory reset and start from scratch but its not worth the aggravation.

OK, that's more than just me with this problem. How about it, smart folks? Any ideas? Best I got was do a factory reset and hope for the best. Really don't want to have to re-setup my toy again.
I too hope for someone more clever than me to figure out a workaround. Until then, Firefox for Android looks and performs wonderfully on this tablet - in portrait or otherwise. Check it out!

Actually, I haven't been able to recreate this problem since I posted this. I'm wondering if it was caused by the cover I used to use which had a very strong magnet. I'm now using the Samsung light cover.
If I see it again I will post it, but so far so good, knock on wood.

I have a nonmagnetic cover so that's out. Too bad for me! Still with me.
Got another update Monday - not sure what it did but it was there - and it seemed to fix the issue for awhile. Now it's back the way it was. Oh well.
Gave up and went to Opera. Fixed all the problems so the issue was Chrome not working right.

5.1.1 lock screen issues

After updating to 5.1.1 I am having issues with the lock screen. If i press a button to wake it is slow to respond. It almost looks like the lock screen crashes. Sometimes the lock screen is unresponsive after a finger swipe. I am unrooted on the stock firmware. I have made no modifications to my phone. Any help would be appreciated.

I tried reseting but the problems eventually came back a few hours later. My GF's note 4 has the same issue with the laggy pull down menu and the laggy lock screen crashing. I was able to get to home as it crashed and there was an error message that Touchwiz crashed. There's a MAJOR bug in Touchwiz after the update.

My lock screen crashed again but this time the finger print scanner stopped working and backup password option shows up but doesnt recognize anything. had to factory reset. I think its a bug with the launcher and finger print scanner. I now have pin password on lock screen and noticed less lag on lock screen. definitely turn off finger print if you have it on.
Similar problems as reported here. Navigator flashes lock screen then recovers on its own. In a few minutes lock screen stays on unresponsive. I have tried factory reset. Using fingerprint scanner. I will try turning it off and report back.

I also believe it is the launcher crashing after 5.1.1.. I changed the launcher to NOVA and I haven't had any slow downs or crashes
Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk
Nova has an option very much like adding the command below to build.prop
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
For those that are rooted and don't want to try another launcher, try adding that to build.prop I'm not sure but post if it's already there; I wouldn't know myself, running OB7.
Reboot after edit with root browser. I can't imagine why a problem like this exists for an update that's supposed to be a fix for memory leak but acts like it's out of memory? Debloat may help but it may be simpler than that.

Did you try the following? I don't know if this works without root but Nova launcher (and possibly others) has an aggressive desktop setting at bottom of advanced settings. Enable that and reboot if you can enable it.
Haven't got confirmation if the build.prop edit is helping rooted users but there was one report of improvement with Nova Launcher.

That's the only close response I've got to a confirmation. It's been suggested to debloat or turn some apps off but that's still not confirmation.
I'm running rooted OB7 deodex with Xposed myself so I've only suggested a possible solution. I'm running a modified version of the OG5 5.1.1 kernel (freeza's Beastmode 1.0). I think the kernel is pretty sound in performance and in regards to battery; it gave me a boost in screen on time per charge.
