This is the first time I have used a PAC-Man rom, and I have spend a half hour trying to find a couple of settings. If anyone else is familiar with the ROM, and can lend a hand, I would GREATLY appreciate it.
Ok, first off, where to I set the screen timeout? I don't see the setting under the normal settings->display options.
Second, I found that when I look at my recent apps, I see a little app bar with Apollo music player, camer, calendar, calculator, twitter and a couple others in it. Is there any way that I can customize these shortcuts? I play all my music through Google Play Music, and would love to substitute Apollo for it.
For now, that's all I can find (or can't find) wrong. Finally having an S-Off One is really showing off how awesome this phone is.
For the display timeout. Settings>Display&Lights>Sleep.
As for the bar in recents, I'm looking for a way to customize it as well.
Have you noticed any problems with WiFi or loading videos at all? For some reason I can't play Videos through the web or app for YouTube. And my WiFi seems to run at about half speed when I run a speedtest, compared to other devices.
I had problems for a while with YouTube, but without really doing anything it started working (I may have rebooted due to problems with my home screen). I haven't seen away to customize the shortcuts on recent apps yet either. Have you guys charged at all? Mine phone got pretty hot.

I've been running the ROM since we got rumrunner, and I've noticed my phone actually runs cooler while charging and normal use.
I just happened to wake up in the middle of the night and checked it. It was cooler than usual like you mentioned. I dont know what the deal was.

Have you had problems with a laggy launcher at all? Sometimes when I return to the home screen from an app, none of my icons or widgets show up until I hit the app drawer.

I still have yet to figure out how to change the recent apps. I haven't noticed my phone getting hotter than normal, so I'd check to see what apps you have running.
I also haven't had any issues with YouTube, but for some reason, Google Search doesn't want to work. It just looks like it keeps trying to load and nothing ever comes up. It states that a new version is available, but when I try to update, saying that the "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again." So, whenever I need to search for something, I have to go into chrome and search, which is a pain.
I updated to the 10/13 nightly and it seems to be running pretty well. Battery life is a bit better too. In the PACman thread it sounds like the 10/14 nightly didn't quite build right.

PAC-Man seems to be the best of all worlds. Unfortunatly, I have had little luck with it on any phone I have tried it on. Works great on my Samsung 7.7 tablet but tried it on my GNEX and S3 and I would have constant issues. Very laggy and random reboots. Some apps also did not place nice with it on the GNEX and S3. I have not tried it on the One as Vanir seems to be running really good.

I did have some issues with lag, but after switching to Nova launcher I haven't had any problems. It does sound like the most recent nightly has some fixes for the laggy launcher. Other than that minor issue, this ROM has been pretty stable.
I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
I am running the latest Cynogenmod Nightly on my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 Everything is running great except for the game 'The Walking Dead.' As soon as this game starts, there is a horrible buzzing sound from the speakers, which continues the whole time the game is running (which otherwise appears to run normally).
Unfortunately, I never installed this game on this tablet before installing Cynogenmod, so I am not sure if this is a problem with the tablet, or with Cynogenmod, and was wondering if anyone else had experienced the same issue...

As much as I enjoy CM you give up so much to run it (split screen for instance).
Yes I have this problem have you figured out how to fix
I had the same problem. I had Cynogenmod installed and was enjoying it (despite the lack of multiwindow) until I tried to play Season 2 of The Walking Dead. Instead of the normal sounds all I got was buzzzzzzzzzzzz. I tried reinstalling a few times and even a new nightly of CM but nothing helped. Finally I just decided to go with another ROM altogether. I went with CleanRom for the 8.4 and haven't had any problems with the game at all.
One note, though since this is a gaming topic, when I was using CM, the game Deus Ex worked fine, now on CleanRom it doesn't. But since it still works on my Note 2 I'm going to continue running CleanRom on my 8.4.
I'm not sure what is causing lag, but my Note 4 had enough of it to be concerned.
Sending SMS and messages via hangouts is brutally slow, just as scrolling through Google Now and within the eBay application.
I have a little bit of stutter in touchwiz, but that isn't near as bad as the app stutter. Wondering if this is something to be concerned with.
only reports of lag I have seen are @

Same here, my phone runs butter smooth with animations set at .5 and forcing GPU rendering. Gotta love that Adreno 420
OP might have a bad device. Try replacing it to see if that fixes the problem. Very few people have reported lag and it seems to be no more then any other device.

I want to point out that I had the same issues you mentioned. I went ahead and performed a factory reset since I just got the phone and I hadn't done much to it. It solved my problem and I'm not getting any more app stutter from sending messages through hangouts.
It happens, man. Initial setup of the phone could go wrong, especially when you load on a ton of apps at once. Might not have been your fault; it could've been the devil that loaded all that carrier bloatware on it.
No lag here either, I've been running a media converter on it 24 hours a day for the past few days to change a lot of my formats to mp4s from mkvs and even with that running in the background, with encoding being one of the more CPU processing hungry things you can do, I can play GTA:SA on it without issues.
I was actually lagging pretty bad past 2 days. I enabled ART and let it go for a day thinking it would get better. I restarted it the second day hoping it would help. Finally disabled it an hour ago and its working as expected... Guess there is no real point. I'll just hope we get 5.0 before the years over.

It was good for me before, but wowee. Thank you for the tip.
I feel the power!! So much of a difference that makes
Yeah buttery smooth here. I've disabled all the ATT apps via managing applications and ALWAYS use Rechild Task Killer - by far one of the best app killers I have used over the years since Tmobile G1, Note 1, Note 2, Note 3, and now Note 4. It helps despite what anyone may think.
Also, as other have mentioned, tap your build number 7 times to enable Developer Options Menu in Settings - General. From there, you can disable animation transitions - I always set all mine to 0/No animation because I don't need animations and that speeds things up a lot.
All my texts/MMS are fast along with browsing and internet - HUGE difference compared to the Note 3 (everyone was right- that phone had the worst WIFI imaginable - I was rooted and had the same setup as I do now on the Note 4). I have my MOTO 360 connected with bluetooth always on. I use Textra as my main sms/mms app. I'm really happy - battery life is excellent compared to my Note 3 because Android Wear eats a lot. I also have 1W weather widget on refreshing every hour. I have location on power saving mode so only Data and Wifi pinpoint my location instead of GPS (this is just common sense - GPS kills your battery so don't choose the TOP high performance option).

Wow, what a huge difference. Thanks!
thats odd because I dont get any lag. The only thing I noticed is once in a while, when opening Hangouts, the GUI gets stuck at a blank screen and I have to back out and enter in again. The other issue I noticed, which doesnt happen often, is that the network gets stuck in a certain speed (i.e. 4G or whatever), when I know I should be getting LTE service. If I toggle airplane mode, it switches to LTE and works flawlessly after that. Its almost as if the modem has a hard time switching networks.
Well, it looks like my Hangout lags is back after I got a ton of auto updates today. I probably shouldn't have left auto-update enabled. There's probably an incompatibility with one of the apps so I'm going to hunt it down. Other than that, the rest of the phone is quite smooth.

UPDATE: The problem is clearly the hangouts update itself. I uninstalled the update and disabled automatic updates. It's running smoothly again.
So the problem with hangouts appears to be the most recent update. Uninstall it and you'll run off of the stock version that shipped with the device. until they've fixed the problems.
The problematic build is 2.4.78234730 (Oct 22, 2014).

And no problems with sending messages?
I've cycled installing and uninstalling it a few times to verify that it was indeed the problematic version for me. It could very well be an incompatibility issue still, but I'm not experiencing problems with other apps... aside from Instagram being awfully choppy when cropping photos for upload.

touchwiz always lags. the lg g3 has significant lag to.
I did a factory wipe, disabled all the bloatware i could, forced gpu rendering and changed animations to 0.5x and honestly, it ive been good to go. i did all this to my dads note 4 this morning as well but he said he hadnt experienced any issues yet with everything kept stock

GPU rendering is pointless. I tested the other day. The speed was exactly the same for opening and closing apps, etc. The drawback, if you have flash video enabled and watch any video, shows, movies, etc. - it will be laggy/choppy with this option enabled.
Might need a master reset. I just purchased this phone yesterday. The first phone they gave me reset itself almost 30 times on its own despite me master resetting like 5 times. After the second master reset I didn't load any apps and the issue still persisted. Went back and had them give me a new one. All is well now.

might have spoken too soon. Hangouts works fine after the latest update but i do notice a second or two lag when trying to open the keyboard or open a chat. Its not enough to really complain but it is noticeable.
Noob quesion.. Can someone please direct me to where I go to force GPU rendering on the Note 4? I can't find then setting anywhere. I've been out of the Android game for a while so I greatly appreciate the help. Really like this phone, but the lag on even simple tasks like Facebook scrolling is leaving much to be desired.
(Disregard finally found out how to enable Dev Options.. Man I got a lot of catching up to do.)

I just bought the 8.4 at the black Friday price and I'm getting awful lag when scrolling through a pdf in landscape. It only happens when crossing the divide between pages. It also lags worse when switching months in Google's calendar app than my Nexus 7 2012 does. In fact the image at the top doesn't even smoothly fade. The calendar just hangs for a second then jumps to the new month and image. I was curious if anyone else is seeing the same thing or if mine might be defective. It is a lot faster than my old tablet in most other ways but this random lag is driving me nuts.

I haven't tried a custom rom, still on stock. Tried a factory reset and I am still having the same issues.
I switched to CM because I couldn't even smoothly scroll down a page on Chrome on stock.
I may try that. I'm just afraid of having a problem down the road and Samsung giving me crap over it. How hard is it to restore stock?

The stock rom is available online and just needs to be flashed using Odin. I haven't tried doing it yet tho, but I doubt there will be any issues.
The biggest thing is that if you root or change roms, you're probably voiding any warranty that you have. If you're tech-capable and willing to troubleshoot your own issues, I would say that it's worth it.
Thanks, I went ahead and installed CM 11 and it fixed the problems I was having.
Hi,
I was wondering if any of you have had any lag with Snapchat on the 5X. I have had problems with Snapchat from since I got the phone at launch, updated the app a few times and I have the current version. Half of the time it works smoothly, and half the time it is a mess, laggy and freezing when swiping between the camera/stories/etc. It's worst when I have FB Messenger chat heads on. It also makes the whole phone lag even when it's in recent apps but not open.
I have a 32GB version (I doubt this makes any difference), rooted with TWRP but no real modifications. Is this a marshmallow issue? I've never had this problem in the past on 5.1.1 and prior (Nexus 5, Oneplus One, Moto G, Xperia Z3C among others).
Thanks all.
I'm with you dude. The Nexus 4 had a camera hardware defect that would freeze the phone once every few pictures. I will be furious if SnapChat come up with a "GOOGLE'S FAULT NEXUS 5X HARDWARE PROBLEM" excuse again.
Exactly the same issue as me. I use snapchat almost every day and its a ridiculous mess. My sister has a Moto G 3rd Gen with 2GB of RAM and it is so smooth. So I don't understand why it hasn't been optimized for the 5X yet, no reason for all this lag! Several times its locked up my phone and won't exit to the home screen.

I still have my Xperia Z3 Compact and I have no issues with it. It's ridiculous. No other app gives me problems.
I thought I had some issues but I noticed the same thing in Stock and Chroma using ElementalX. I notice the IO usage in my system monitor hits nearly 100 MB/s for 3-4 seconds while the phone locks up.
Same. I am part of the beta and posted bug reports about lag and freezes on the 5X and 6P (idk if the 6P has the issue). I doubt it will do anything, but doesn't hurt to let out my frustration
I have the same issue. Hope this is something a Snapchat update can fix
Same problem with my 32GB version N5X, not only thirdparty apps, but also the Google camera app. I don't want to use the camera any more and I miss my Nexus5 with marshmallow which works so smoothly.

I'm in the same boat. Rebooting fixes it temporarily. It's a pain in the ass.
same problem with snapchat freezing and being incredibly slow while my 2013 n5 was always buttery smooth. also have other weird camera ****, like vivino capturing pictures upside down and ****. really really irritating and basically my only problem with the n5x
Just got the 9.19.1.0 Beta and it seems to be working better. I'll need to give it a couple hours to see if the usual lag kicks in.

Seemed like a lot of people are having the lag issue with N5X camera. Google should fix this problem, otherwise I want to get a refund.
Google camera lags not only within the app itself but also slows down the Android system.
I have already contacted google to get a replacement. Hopefully the new phone doesn't have camera issue.

Does that mean this is a hardware issue which cannot be fixed by new FW? Bad news for me, I'm in PRC and I bought my n5x through an unusual way, it's almost impossible to do RMA.[emoji24]

I hear you all. Same problem with Snapchat here.

Disabling access to the camera actually fixes it. But then again..

me too i have the same issue laggy and freezing since i bought the phone and when they download the update 6.0.1 the problem still the same I don't know why still and sometimes the camera app laggy I hope is anyone can help us with issue really I felt bored from the phone
So I am a power snapchat user and had this same problem and might have accidentally stumbled on a possible solution after having a login failure. I enabled the travel mode so it's not downloading constantly. I installed snapprefs and I can't explain why but it's flying now. No lag on window switching or opening the camera. I'm on 6.0.1 December rooted
I'm on 6.0.1 and Snapchat version 9.20.5 with Snapprefs installed.. the app is almost unusable.
It's definitely app-side issues because I too suffered from terrible lag and stuttering on Snapchat only for a long, long time but then a few updates seemed to fix it. Now it's back to being bad again with MM 6.0.1...... hopefully they will fix it soon
any issues with snapchat still?

Still issues.
In general my 5X seems to lag when the camera is in use
I was having these major snapchat issues while on stock and while on some of sonicron's tweaks to the ElementalX kernel, however snapchat has been purring along ever since I went to the PureNexus ROM (includes it's own kernel, not sure if there is anything special about it). Used snapchat all weekend during my partying and not one issue with no reboots required.
