I have a weird problem, a few days ago I could not turn off the morning alarm because the icons in the lower bar (turn off and snooze) just couldn't be pulled up. I thought I was just too sleepy but I later realized that I can't use the lockscreen shortcuts either. The phone registers the touch but the icons just don't move upward. Also can't decline a call because of this.
Everything was fine the day before this happened, there were no system updates, no settings changed. The phone is running on stock rom, Android 4.2.2, Sense 5.0. No matter what settings I change I can't get it to work again, tried searching google and xda and found nothing similar. If I try to use the lockscreen shortcuts multiple times and then go to the app drawer and just scroll up and down sometimes a random app opens, most often messaging or mail, like it registers the lockscreen command only then. This is so annoying, does anyone know what I can try to eliminate this problem? I wouldn't like to try flashing a custom rom because I don't have any experience and am otherwise satisfied with stock system. Please excuse me if my questions are in any way stupid, I'm just a noob
I still can't find a fix for this, is there really nobody else with this problem?
Now I decided to hard reset the phone to fix this...yeah right, the shortcuts still don't work!

so I've had an issue with this for awhile and have no clue what's causing it. if i hit menu then the option for notifications it almost never opens the first time. started happening months ago on cm6 nightlies and I thought it was an issue with them at first but it's persisted through multiple full wipes and different roms.
when I hit notifications it'll either do nothing or start pulling down and stop and it usually takes 5-10 tries for it to work as intended. hitting menu and pulling it down manually is fine.
anyone else have this issue ever or know of a possible solution? I've tried full wipes a couple times and the only thing I haven't done is an ruu which I'll probably try later today.
bumping this in hopes of help
When I hit menu / notification, the menu just closes- nothing else no matter how many times I do it. I never noticed before because I use LauncherPro+ and have "hide notification bar" checked &when I want to see it I hit menu and swype the bar down with my finger manually- never use the notification button.
Are you using LauncherPro? I was thinking the glitch was from that since the button worked when I first got the phone and just used the Sense UI, no clue about launchers or rooting or ROMs. (I'm sooo much happier with my rooted, senselessrEVOlution, Lou's custom kernel 5, LauncherPro+, btw!)
Sent from my Incredible w/
Senseless rEVOlution
using XDA App
well just tested and looks like that's the issue lp+ and using the hide notification bar too. turned it to display normally and it works 100% of the time. thanks! gonna try and send a bug report to the dev.
Hey guys,
I've been having issues with the Widgetlocker lockscreen recently, and was wondering if any of this will ring a bell with someone.
I recently flashed the KJ2 2.3.5 ROM (the XEU non-wipe Frankenstein one), and i've also flashed CF-Root and then the Speedmod kernel. I'm in the UK, on O2 (debranded to XEU) and i have no issues with the phone whatsoever. I even get great battery life. It's just this damn widgetlocker issue that's grating on me!
For some reason when i wake the phone up and try to unlock it by using the slider (i just use the default 'Android' one for unlocking - the only other things i have are a couple of widgets for missed calls & texts and a battery % one) a lot of the time the slider does not repond to touch. It doesn't always happen, but maybe a good one out of every three times it happens. And the weird part is, if i then just wait about 5 seconds, then it suddenly responds and i can unlock the phone. Obviously having another 5 seconds on top of the already present lag when pressing the home button is not good, and because of this i'm thinking of not using WL anymore.
I've been through all of the settings, i'm almost 100% sure it's not something in there. Can anyone help with this?
Cheers guys.
Happens with me too sometimes. Another issue is if you keep pressing Menu button 4-5 times the phone gets unlocked and takes you to the home screen.
Hey, just wanted to post that i finally figured out what the problem was.
I'm using an .apk to help with the touchscreen sensitivity. See vitalij's thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18999801#post18999801
Well it turns out on 2.3.5 vitalij's .apk has some issues with the most up-to-date superuser. The solution, so far, isn't great but gets the job done, is to uninstall the .apk, and then re-install. The important part is not to click on 'enable service' in the app! So basically each time you want to use the app you have to open it and hit 'apply' on whatever setting you need. The setting will work until you next turn the screen off. For me this workaround is actually ok, as the only time i ever really used it was for the odd game, so i'm happy to just do it manually on these occassions.
disable root helper
madrano, can you expand on what you mean by this? i have tried enabling & disabling root helper but if i remember correctly the problem was still there.
I installed this awesome app, and was enthusiastically tweaking it with UI adjustments when I was suddenly hit by "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped working." This flew me into a panic. This popup message looped constantly no matter how many times I pressed OK, and made my phone unusable.
Long story short, I found a solution. Others had had this problem, and posted it on a different android forum. What causes this bug is turning off Quick Settings in the Notification area. Turning it back on again in Settings > System solves the problem.
I was very reluctant to go back to gingerbread after finally finding a good, fast jellybean rom for my Incredible 2. I have reported it, and I do hope it is fixed soon.
I hope this helps!
Holy crap you're a lifesaver, thanks! I had this same problem because I am using lockscreen notifications (NILS) and power toggles in notification drawer so I disabled the quick settings. I had no idea this was what caused the problem, thanks!
Soooo..
i dont find the seetings.
my tablet language is on german.
So can anyone tell me where i can find the quick setting , setting ?
Thanks! This still works to solve the issue!
Hi, my phone is running stock global version number 9.6.1.0 and today something odd happened. I turned the phone after 25 hours it was off and many of my settings was changed- the order of the settings in the notification bar was changed, it showed the clock at am-pm style but it was on 24h mode before, vibration on button was set on but didn't worked and the symbols of the notifications at the status bar are gone, only "..." is shown (i had 3 notifications so it should have shown them). So did it happened to anyone else? Is someone messed with my phone remotely? Is it a bug? Is xiaomi messing with the setting like google? I would like to know what you think.
call ghostbusters
Yes

Frankly i miss floating ball and few othere things, but i for sure dont miss lag, bugs and othere sh***! So i couldn't fix notification and all those things, but i could unlock bootloader and flesh los magisk and evrtyhing else. So try it.if you need aome help contact me...
I searched forum for similiar issues but could not found anything(though there are some reddit topics).
When I wake the phone with power button or fingerprint sensor, and try to pull down notification bar, there is a stutter/lag lasts 1-2 seconds. Lets say you pull up for app drawer there is nothing but pull down and there it is.
Also wallpaper seems to affect it a little bit but it might be a placebo effect as it still stutters(light the way wallpaper seems to solve it a little bit.).
It started after Android 10 update and I even tried to clean flashing whole rom but result is same and I do not have any UI altering apps.
It seems like a slow wake up issue and may be playing with sleep frequencies might solve it but I did not root so it is not a option for me.
Is anyone else facing this ? Vanilla or custom roms/kernels ?
Yep, I have the same issue. It's pretty annoying, but I did get it to stop, for me at least it seems the new gesture navigation is causing this because I can't get it to stutter while using the 2 or 3 button navigation methods. I've had this happening since I updated to Android 10 (stable release, not beta) but after a while it just fixed itself, unfortunately my phone ran out of battery yesterday and today after I booted it up it came back to haunt me :/
Alright I got it to stop, disabling both "New notification" and "Double-tap to check phone" did it for me. Hopefully this helps.

I have exactly the same issue on my Pixel 2XL, manage to fix it by disabling Google Feed on the left of the main home screen. Try it let me know if it works.
Update 1: disabling google feed doesn't work. I try to switch back to 3 button navigation and the issue gone.
I do not know how but now it is smooth everytime I try to wake phone and double tap+alwayson display is enabled. Also I tried all wallpapers and it works without any stutter.
Probably monthly updates fixed it, idk.
