How many people are having this issue?
Ive had it since purchase and im on 4.0.2 now (manually updated) and still having issues.
I have no idea if google or samsung are aware of this but a quick search on google brings up loads of articles about it.
If you not sure download a multi touch test app from the market and follow as they do on the video.
While in landscape mode with the power button at the top the right hand side of the screen will being temperamental which you try to have more than one point on touch on the screen.
I noticed this issue playing heavy gunner today
Unfortunate

I get it playing anything which requires multi touch. Causes modern combat 3 to be un-playable.
Can be fixed sometime by turning screen off and on.
Dont forget to vote if you have it.
Here my Galaxy Nexus yesterday night: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNlfGo3YrnQ
Multitouch issue for the first time.
Had this issue a couple times. This truly is the predecessor to the nexus one lol

oke this is a copy of my thread here :Gnex Game thread
"Oke.
just to point this out and help a couple of people.
the current state of gaming on the Gnex is..rater terrible.
Allot of game's camp with the multitouch error/glitch/compatibility.
Yes multitouch doesnt work how it should work.
The cause of this might be the SB(software buttons)
and an API that needs to be implemented to the game to hide the SB.
"
as this might be actually the issue.. that apps dont have the right API/support for the Gnex.
all the linkts and video's you posted are apps that arent native and dont support the GNex at all.
yes they run.but as soon as you get close to the SB you get issue's.
and there is the problem.
the apps need to include the hide SB api that are in the native gnex apps.
there is your problem.
not all apps are affected by this issue due to apps being programmed differently.
(different API level or coding)
as soons as GTA3 has gnex support,than we can see if i was right or you were.

Because its not an ICS nor GNEX issue.
Download unity3D put 2 touchpads next to each other.
and walah. the same result.
its the App thats making the issue(not being compatible with Gnex)

here. i made a video.
just have to wait until they update the games.(rockstar is gone update it[version 1.1 isnt the GNEX update])
its conflicting with the software buttons cuz they arent hidden(they should when the games support Gnex just like tablets not having the bottom bar when playing)

Why would turning screen off and back on fix it for a while?
I hope it is easily fixed but i hope its in android source rather than apps as thats alot of incompatible apps.
Whew. Just tested. Multitouch is perfect!

my multitouch issue only happens with heavy gunners. Once I play heavy gunners, I can see the multitouch issue.
I don't have this issue when playing shadowgun or deadspace.
The first time I tried the multitouch issue it appeared, but after that I have tried a lot of times and is impossible to reproduce the error againg. Eitherway, I have played a lot of times to Modern Combat 2 and I have never had any kind of problem with the multitouch.
BTW, when I achieved reproducing the error, it was just in the typical position of the onscreen controls for games and emulators and just in the left side of the screen if I look it in portrait mode, was strange, in the right side it worked fine, but in the left side not
Mine happens just like in the video. Works perfectly fine until I play a game like heavy gunner, then I get issues. Turn the screen off then back on and everything works again.
edit: Actually, toggling the screen off and back on during the game seems to fix multitouch in-game too
I have the same issue in GTA3 and N64oid.. I hope it will work in updated versions of these apps.
this is what happen to me:
If i'm chargin the phone multitouch goes crazy and doesn't work,litteraly impossible to use, if i unplug the power cord, put the screen off and back on everithing goes back to normal, since i' testing the multitouch with antutu so i'm sure of this bug,
So if only battery powered multitouch ok!
With power cord plugged in multitouch not ok!
let me know what do you think.
I went to try out the Note II in store today - and couldn't believe how laggy it was... I have the Original Note, which feels much faster in comparison.
I noticed lag on
Home Screen - jerky movement
App Drawer - jerky again
Gallery - Took 10 seconds to open, very jerky scroll
Home Button - 3 or 4 seconds to return to home
My note doesn't lag on any of these, even with the new 3D Gallery app.
This was in the UK, O2 store. I even tried it on two display models and they were just as bad
I reminded me of the horrible lag I used to get on the old Galaxy S with 2.2
Anyone else noticed this?

I have 245 apps installed on my Note 2 and it screams.
I showed to one of my coworkers, who has the S3, and he was commenting on how much faster it was than his phone.
So I'm not sure what the problem is there. Some sort of horrible bloatware?

I agree, some people take things a little to close to heart. But anyway in reply to the OP, I think that it was most likely because of everyone that uses the phone that goes through the store. I guarantee that thing has so many apps running in the background. If you go again, I say try to reboot it, and if you can't do that, try and close out as many apps as possible.
Obvious troll thread imo or the OP is a typical iPhone user in wich case he is not to blame as iPhones prevent you from using your brain
In defense of the OP I would say that I have noticed a very occasional lag once or twice when something has been running. For example running the premium version of printer share caused a massive drain on resources including battery and caused my device to hiccup. Also, I have noticed slowdowns with s-planner and netflix - both have frozen on me forcing at the least a force-close of the app and once a force reboot.
So, before too many people start jumping on the 'It's a troll, run for the hills' bandwagon, perhaps take a minute to realise that the stock device, while being simply awesome, fast, smooth and generally amazing is not completely bug free.
Just a thought.

My point exactly...
I had the same experience in the Vodafone store, the note 2 on display almost came to a halt. I tried holding down the home button to see if there were many apps running but it wouldn't even bring up the task manager. Now I KNOW the note 2 is a beast but an 'average' consumer might have been put off by it.
I still can't make my mind up between this and the S3 LTE version that also comes with 2GB RAM.
Oh come on guys, these in store demo unist are left on for days and days and days without reboot, people mess around with them all day, they are a prime example of a phone at its worse, ram usage will be high, apps won't have been closed properly or at all etc etc.

I recently purchased a game called Walking Dead: Assault. I gave it a quick play and decided it was a great game. Then a few days later it had an update notice, so I updated, that's when things got weird.
Opening the game in landscape crashes immediately. Viewing comments from others on Google Play seems to indicate there is a problem with our tab and this game since the update. However, accidentally I discovered the game still works if I open it in portrait and play in portrait. As soon as I turn to landscape, it crashes.
I just thought that was really odd. Hopefully the game developers can figure it out. When it works it has great graphics, sound and play, but I prefer landscape.
I would suggest letting the developer know. I haven't run into something like that on my games.
I did notice i cant launch the game any more, it just crashes ill try changing orientation and see if i see the same thing you do.

Would be interested in knowing if it acts the same for you. As redline80 suggested, I did send off emails and crash reports to the devs, but I'm not sure they believe me.
I have seen that happen a few times during beta testing for different apps. Hopefully they are smart enough to listen.
Anyone figure out a fix for this? Mine won't even open in portrait. I emailed the developers twice worth no response. Bought this game because of the sale and haven't been able to play it at all.

Chalk it up to Android fragmentation and too many devices to count ... I've had devs tell me they never tested the app on a specific device I had (despite it being reasonably high-priority) AND they also didn't seem interested in looking at the device issues any time soon.

It still works in portrait for me, but I stopped playing it because I prefer landscape use and my cover is a landscape type. When I first got the game it worked just fine, then an update ruined it.
I've had my note 4 for a couple weeks now, and I have to say that the phone is not as powerful as I expected. Whenever I run a resource heavy app, the phone experiences severe lag after exiting the app. For instance, the Caustic app, which is a music mixing app, runs descent on my note 4 but after exiting the app the launcher becomes very stuttery and laggy. I loaded the phone up with Nova launcher prime, and it does work better, yet still lags. I have clean master installed, and I've gotton notifications from it a couple times telling me the RAM is above 80% and the CPU is hot.. I've always been under the impression that clearing processes from RAM on Android is a no no, but as a last ditch effort, I went ahead and did it anyway. Over all, I'm not happy with the phone performance. My 2013 nexus 7 performes better, and this is supposed to be a beefier device as far as hardware is concerned.. Should I take the phone back to AT&T?

What other apps have you seen this with?
As I have not used caustic I cannot say if it does the same.
Is that app caustic 3?

Yes, the app that's causing me the lag is caustic 3. The only other app that had caused the same stutter is Fit Brains Trainer by roseta stone.. Are you having problems too?

So I tried caustic not sure how long but it does lag the launcher after exiting. (nova launcher)
Also after reboot every thing is running smoothly again and started caustic again and it does not lag after exiting ~5mins of running (maybe I didn't leave it running as long or what not I'm not sure but that's all I can observe so far)
Hope that helps you a bit.
This is exactly why we need the ability to flash custom roms on Samsung devices. The out-of-the-box experience sucks. The phone performs night and day on a custom rom.

Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it. My girlfriend has an AT&T Note 4 as well. I loaded hers up with the caustic app, and had the same laggy results. Yea, sometimes after exiting the app, the lag is so bad I have to reboot, other times a simple screen lock and unlock takes care of it, and other times there is no lag at all. When I was using the touch wiz launcher it caused lag everytime.. Nova launcher is working much better, but still not satisfactory..IMO, if I have what is considered to be one of, if not the most powerful smartphone currently, I shouldn't be dealing with this at all.. I think after this phone I'll stick with nexus devices.. Even though I said the same thing after my Galaxy S4, and somehow got sucked into the hype on this phone..

I think it's probably just Samsung bloatware interfering with phone function.
Personally I don't think it is a deal breaker just keep an eye out for those apps it may not be 100% compatible with our phones.
You may want to report the issue to the developer of Caustic. It could just be a software glitch isolated to this phone.
I personally haven't had the chance to see this phone lag at all and I definitely use it very heavily.

Do you use a cleaner app? I use clean master, and about once or twice a day I get a notification from clean master telling me the phone is preforming poorly, and ram is over %80. This usually occurs when I have a few apps open, and I usually do experience minor lag leading up to this. I allow clean master to wipe the ram, then reboot the phone and all is well for a while. This is very discouraging..

While a bit counterintuitive to what we have been seeing on windows etc.
This phone is designed to use all of its ram.
It should not lag while doing it and apps that causes it to lag is probably dev error so make note of those apps and keep an eye out for it.
Ram is not being used unnecessarily android purposely stores cached in ram to allow it to load faster.
It is not the app's fault. I made a thread about this same exact behavior a couple weeks ago but not a single person responded. Jittery, laggy performance after exiting a game or other graphics intensive app. Only thing that would get rid of it was a reboot.
I got a PM from Samsung Support about it though which surprised me. I think they may be aware of some type of issue.
It happened for me after two different apps closing so it's not your app. And it doesn't happen after every closing either. The jittery behavior is not limited to the launcher either. Next time it happens open another app and scroll, like the browser. It was terribly choppy.
The good news is Samsung reached out to me which is always a positive sign for fixes.

Yea, definitely not the apps fault. I've confirmed this by installing the same app on my Nexus 7 and Galaxy S4; the app runs fine on those two devices without any lag as a result. It may be compatability issues with the newer qualcom chip, or possibly all of the bloatware on the phone weighing things down. These ideas are all speculation on my part. It's good to hear that Samsung is aware of the issue. Please keep us posted on anything new in regards to the issue. Just an FYI, I've replaced Nova Launcher with the Google now launcher, and for the last 3 days the phone has been running remarkably smoother. Hopefully lollipop will fix these issues.. Root would definitely be nice.

I was having some minor issues with Nova Launcher. I was getting random crashes, where Nova itself was actually crashing, which was a first for me. I was also getting some lag while scrolling, opening and closing apps. When I use Nova Launcher, I tweak allot of the settings, so that may have had something to do with it, but I've used Nova Launcher for the last year and a half on my Galaxy S4 w/o any problems.. Google now launcher doesn't have any options for customization of any kind, but it has been very smooth and effective.

Hello XDA,
This is my first thread on XDA and I feel as if XDA is the place to come for all Android. Here, I was hoping to bring up some issues on the beautiful Note 4. Any fixes?
Snapdragon 805 not properly optimized?
There are a few example I can give for this. When using the swipe lock screen option, with the popping colors. If you briefly touch it, the colors would come up, but pay close attention to the colors that come up. At least a few of you should notice the FPS drop when the colors rise and begin to fade, and its not bad but its concerning considering the power this phone has. Also, playing Real Racing 3 is pretty much impossible with the horrid 20 FPS the game plays at, when an 801 runs it as smooth as butter. Concerning.
Of course, the laggy multitasking button (I think thats what its called)
This is a major issue a lot of Note 4 users have complained about. Pressing the on-the-phone-button to see what apps are open is really slow at times and its frustrating cause, once again, this phone is really awesome. Any fix on this? I turned briefing off (Even if I loved it).
The occasional stutter
Honestly, this is the only other issue I've seen with this device. The 805 possibly not being optimized is kind of the main issue I've seen with the entire devices stutters. The multitasking button as well being the issue. Do you guys know any fixes for these two issues, or news on it, confirmations?
I too am finding the Note 4 shockingly slow given the specs. Browsing the Web is like walking through quicksand. Scrolling Web pages lags and stutters.
I don't get it. I had an S5 for 2 weeks and it was MUCH faster than this. ?

No lag on real racing 3 here. Even when I was just rooted on stock Rom so I could use ps3 controller with rr3 and it was fine. And if games do lag, it's up to the game developer to optimize it for that processor, not the other way around. It's not like Sony designed their processor in a ps4 around games that don't exist yet. Don't know why u right off the bat blame the hardware when it is all software issues.
If any thing is Lagging is is the poorly optimized Sprint crap and other apps on the phone. The processor is working as it should as any benchmark will show. I really find it sad that everyone is always so quick to blame the hardware. Have any of you claiming lag this and stutter this run benchmarks? If you did you would see this hardware is running actually better than predicted.

I have to agree.

If any thing is Lagging is is the poorly optimized Sprint crap and other apps on the phone. The processor is working as it should as any benchmark will show. I really find it sad that everyone is always so quick to blame the hardware. Have any of you claiming lag this and stutter this run benchmarks? If you did you would see this hardware is running actually better than predicted.

Lol, benchmarks? Honestly, who cares about benchmarks, especially when they can be so easily manipulated by how the manufacturer sets things up. Benchmarks are meaningless. All that matters is real world performance.
That being said I've done two things which seem to have improved my performance:
1. Running the Hybrid Rom. I recommend flashing back to the stock Sprint kernel as the included kernel was causing heat issues for me (YMMV).
2. Using Wanam Xposed to disable DVFS in Advanced Settings. This REALLY helped as it has on any Samsung device I've owned.

sprint probably
I think its sprint. Some people have Verizon N4 and they have 0 lag on the phone and some dont. I dont know why, but its frustrating knowing that just because of my carrier means that my device will be slower then others. Any fixes?
And the reason why I said that the 805 may not be optimized is because there is another thread, might be on XDA, that talks about how the device slows down and speeds up the 805 at the wrong times in game with RR3.
So is it sprint?? And if there anyway around this unnecessary lag?
If you guys want me to take a video of my Note 4 with the lag I will do so and show you guys what I mean. FPS drop im popping colors occasionally and lag in multitasking button, sometimes im waiting 5 seconds for all the windows to pop up.

Try disabling DVFS using Wanam Xposed Advanced Settings. May prevent throttling.

Im sorry, how do I do this? Ive heard this a lot and I dont know how it works >.< Easy way to explaom it?? Or possibly a video?
You have to root your phone, then install Wanam Exposed.
This gives you a lot of flexibility on changing things with touchwiz.

There is a youtube with a basic overview of installing. After installing the framework, you would install Wanam, then in there is the settings you can tweak.
I got an update on my sprint note 4 on monday i believe it was and since that update i do not experience the lag i was having with the apps button , besides the normal half a second lag its supposed to have because if you hold that button down it opens the settings for what ever program you have running

Thank you so far
Thanks guys Ill check out that video. Also, XDA mobile premium app wont open on my N4 either... Well.
Do you think the video will help??
Try this. No root needed.
Go to Settings > About Device > Build Number and tap the “Build Number” row 7 times.
This will reveal a “Developer Options” setting just above “About Device”- Enable it. Tap*“Window animation scale” and set to Off.
Tap “Transition animation scale” and set to Off.
Tap *“Animator duration scale” and set to Off
The default is usually 1X, so even lowering this to .5x should speed things up a bit.
Another thing you can try is disable S Voice by double tapping the home key.
App Settings > S Voice. Uncheck "Open via the home key."
Now when you press the home key, the phone won't be waiting to see if you are going to press it a second time.
One other option would be to switch from Dalvik to ART runtime.
Go back to Developer Options > Select runtime system. Select ART. phone will reboot and reload all your apps. The only problem I found with this is every time you reboot your phone, Android will update and reload all your apps. This will take a long time if you have a lot of apps.
