How can delete touch wiz I keep getting an pop up that say touch wiz has stopped unexpectedly I am not even using touch wiz
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
Interesting. I've been getting this for the last couple days, too. I thought it corresponded with some app updates but I've tried to clear cache on apps and touch wiz also but the problem persists. Hmmm.
Anyone have any ideas?
I got the same thing since a few days ago. It is pretty annoying. Hope somebody can help.
Me as well. Everything has been fine, no new apps and all of sudden Touchwiz is crashing all the time. I'd really like to avoid nuking the phone again.
You say no new apps, but had you updated any? Mine seemed to start doing this after I updated apps. If it's not app updates, it would have to be the auto updating security policy patches. That's all I can think of.
Edit: and if we factory reset, it'll just happen again eventually, I suppose...
O new apps for me updated a few last week this just started about 3 days ago isn't touch wiz an app or does it come in phone I looked in my apps and it is not there but i swear I remember downloading it when I first got phone but I did not like it maybe I am wrong

Touchwiz is already on the phone out of the box.

Touch Wiz is your homescreen, so yeah, it comes on your phone. It's uninstallable (without root) and in all my years of Samsung phones, Samsung has never released an update for it via the Galaxy Apps store. The only way it updates is through an OTA update (full firmware update).
The only things I can of your you guys to do is to try removing Widgets from your homescreen. The app associated with the widget could be causing an issue.
If all else fails, a factory reset will definitely fix this type of issue. I know from experience on older phones.

It's great that this post is here. I just bought my note 4 after owning the OG and Note 2. It has 5.1.1 and I'm with AT&T. I had no idea this was as locked down as it is.
However I too in the last 2-3 days have had TW FC on me. I was using TW as I wanted the Samsung experience. I have had Google Updates in the last couple days but no firmware updates.
I was just going to post my TW problem and trying Google Now for a launcher. It seems not to be as much as a resource hog but still getting some FC issues. I downloaded a Samsung app called Package Disabler Pro that lets you disable TW, Gear processes and lots of others without root. I feel with this and the Now Launcher battery life is greatly improved and there is much less lag if any at all. Just wanted to post. Wondered what others were doing for TW and lag?

I always use Nova Launcher, which may or may not be why I'm not getting the crash.
Has Flipboard or S Voice updated in the last few days? (I've disabled these apps via Package Disabler, so I don't get update notifications). Besides widgets, these are the only 2 other things I can think of that are linked directly to TW (Touch Wiz).

Then push these buttons in the numbered order:
I already tried all the clearing of the touchwiz apps and setup my home screen again. It didn't fix the problem.
I have several apps disabled but I don't know why that would cause this. What's interesting to me is that multiple people are getting the same problem around the same time. This would make me believe that the cause is some sort of update of something, whether it be an app or other system file update like security policy stuff that updates itself "behind the scenes."
Looks like I might factory reset. It's getting bad on my end. I already have stuff backed up anyway.
Well I switched to Google launcher and I am now getting one that say Google has stopped gonna try to clear the cache see what happens

It's definitely weird that several people started having the same problem at the same time. I was hoping the cache/data clearing would help though.
Please let everyone know your results after a factory reset. I hate suggesting that since it's what customer service reps always suggest (they know nothing except what's on their computer screen), but I do think it'll fix the issue. As for what caused the problem in the first place: I'm stumped.

I decided not to factory reset yet and instead try to narrow this down. For me, I noticed that every time I rebooted, Weatherbug would force close, then eventually touchwiz would later on. Cleared everything on that app and the phone seems to be running much smoother, and so far, no force closes on anything for over an hour. Crossing fingers.
Does anyone else here use Weatherbug?
Started having the same issues recently.
Started having the same issues recently... just about a 4 o five days.... mu touch wiz don't respond and its freeze !!!
Crashing for me too.
I've tried everything to fix this error. Factory reset doesn't work. It has been going on for the last 3 days. The only apps installed are facebook, fb messenger and chrome. I'm guessing one or more app updates is causing touch whiz to crash.
I am finding it does not matter what launcher you use it will crash although mine seems to do it more when I am exiting Facebook

Has anyone experienced an issue where their samsung keyboard's swiftkey flow (swype) function doesn't work anymore?
I can't pinpoint exactly at which point it stopped working.
When I go to keyboard settings, Swiftkey flow is checked, but greyed out so I can't uncheck it or anything else. Tutorial or resetting settings don't seem to resolve anything either.
Very weird.
Hmm no issue here. What rom ate you using?

Is this Swiftkey's Flow or a version on Samsung?

Go to app manager in the phone settings, choose all apps tab. Find the Samsung keyboard and clear app data. I tried this and viola! swiftkey flow is back. I guess its grayed out so you can't disable it. Anyhow, it's back working now.

Contacted Samsung support and their final solution was to do a hard reset. I was unwilling to do that so I rebooted into TWRP and did a nandroid restore and all is working now.

Just happened to mine as well. On cleanrom. Tried to go into app settings and clear data, no luck. Froze and deleted data with titanium, no luck but it did reset personalization settings.
Sucks cuz I use the Samsung kb for work emails since the tw kb is glitchy with that app. Not going to hard reset just for that
Also my swiftkey option is greyed out ss well can't disable to re enable.
Edit:: ok I know it worked out of the box..Maybe not on cleaneom? Might be loosing it lol not sure

My only suggestion is to make sure predictive text is ON.
After getting it working again after restoring from TWRP backup, I woke up this morning and the problem is back again. I like this keyboard because it has the number row but I guess I'll have to go back to swype if this problem can't be fixed. Samsung seems to have no clue. Maybe if more people complain to them, they might look into the cause and fix it.
[Update] I went into Titanium backup and did a data wipe on the Samsung Keyboard and it is now working again!
[Further update] disappears as soon as you start using it. Swiftflow not grayed out in songs but still only allows single key press. Titanium backup cannot restore backup copy.
After unsuccessfully trying to flash a zip to try to disable the sms screen wakeup last night, I restored from a backup I made prior to the zip install.
I left the bottom two options unchecked, I know one was cache but dont recall the other. Anyway I noticed today it's working again and the swiftkey flow option isn't grayed out anymore. There must be a cached setting we are missing?

Due to a different catastrophic failure I got a new Note 2. Within 4 hours, the new one has the same problem. The phone is not rooted and all the software is either from Google Play or Amazon. It still may be some software that is causing the problem but I have no idea which one.
I called Samsung support and they had no idea and are referring it to the "appropriate team" for a fix in the next update. In other words, live with it or use a different keyboard. Except I really like the Samsung keyboard with the numeric row of keys.
I am coming from Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 and I have installed many apps with no issues. When I moved to Note 3, the same apps that were running just fine in the Nexus 5 and 7 start to have problem:
- Apps opened up, perform certain activity, crashed
- Apps opened up, vertical and horizontal scrolling is really laggy
These apps are like Pocket Informant (calendar app), Pocket Money (financial app), and Shiprack (package tracking), just to name a few.
Seeing all these apps functions well in the Nexus series, the problem seems to point to something within the Note 3.
I am rooted, stock, Knox is NOT tripped. I turned off all animation (0) in the Developer settings. I frozen some built-in apps (see below). Is there anything in Note 3 that I need to UNFROZE or anything I need to do to fix this problem? It's kinda hard to like the Note 3 when the same apps that works well in other phone just quit working...

You froze over 70 apps off the stock ROM? I have at most 20 and don't have the issues you are having. Guess you froze something that is needed.

Yeah, many of these are widgets, or things like Google+, which I froze in my old Nexus phone and tablet with no issue.
I scrutinized each app that I froze to figure out what are its function to make sure it won't cause problem. But it seems something is tied with TouchWiz or vice versa. For example, if i turned off animation, rearranging apps in folder sometimes crash TouchWiz, which is bizarre by itself.
Do you mind letting me know which apps did you freeze? Screenshot is appreciated.

Looks like AdAway is blocking tapatalk image hosting... that's interesting...
Anyways, I can see it from my desktop. Looks like you use many of Samsung apps (Cloud, Backup, Group Play, etc.) since those were not frozen.
I am going to unfroze Samsung stuff to see if it make any different...

I don't use them, but they have not been a bother. I only freeze apps that cause problems, like Knox, or snoop around like the T-Mobile app.

How about battery life? Don't those stuff keeps running in the background?
If I do a hard reset, will:
- all frozen apps are unfrozen?
- all xposed module uninstalled and system settings like battery icon reverted back?
I am rooted, stock with no KNOX trip
I may have to do this to fix the issues I am having.

Just unfreeze everything. Just remember, Nexus means pure AOSP. Samsung means TouchWiz, which has a ton of things needed to run "correctly."

Just because something is running in background doesn't mean it is using the battery. This phone has lot of memory compared with most so for the most part it doesn't really matter.
Things that use the battery a lot are apps that use the Radio, actively use GPS and bluetooth being on. I only have BT on when I am using it in the truck. I always have GPS on because I don't use many apps that actively use it (Google maps uses it when you are navigating or have it active on the screen, but stops using it when you put it in the background).
Battery life is really in hands of the user and how they use their phone and what apps they choose to use.
For me, I get typical 15hrs of life in my phone (that would be down to the 20's% area) which is more than adequate for me.
I don't have time to play games and my phone is required for business so if the phone doesn't ring when someone calls, notify me when a page comes in or I cant make a call when I need to or access data that I need to access, it is useless to me.
As a result, I don't load different roms, play with kernals and do a lot of tweaking because that typically ends up with something not working.
I do have the ability to quick charge my phone at just about every where I go. So if I know I am going somewhere where I will be hanging out for a long time, I can do a quick charge to make sure I can do it. My truck, each computer station at work and home has 2amp charging available which charges as quick as the original charger that comes with the phone. I rarely need to do that however.
When I rooted for 4.4.2 I blew the Knox flag. No longer cared. At one time I thought I might need it for work but that is not going to be the case and I am confident that if I have a real hardware issue it will be covered with the coverage that I have on the phone.

Yeah, I have done that, but some issues still happen, namely the apps that I use. It could be just the apps, but I am trying to narrow down the problem.
I have used Samsung phone before (Galaxy Note 1 and S4 Active) and even HTC phone. Freezing built-in apps never caused this kind of issue (3rd party apps from Google Play crashed), as long as I don't freeze those I know is essential (for example, I won't freeze "Phone" or "Touchwiz"). If you see from my screenshot above, although I freeze a lot of apps, most are widgets and apps like Google Music, etc.
However, It seems that with Note 3, Samsung make Touchwiz more integrated.
[UPDATE]
Unfreezing ALL the apps I previously froze did not fix the problem. I rebooted, pull the battery, etc.
So I did a hard reset and...lo and behold, all the issues I had disappeared - the apps downloaded from Google Play no longer crashing or have scrolling lag.
There must be something in Touchwiz that "hooks" to these 3rd party apps, though I don't know what it is. It is quite interesting that Samsung will do this (first Knox, now this?), when I didn't have this problem with previous Samsung phone when I installed the SAME EXACT apps and Xposed module.
I will try to freeze the built-in app one-by-one and see if there is any issue there.
Got my note 4 and it seems to be stuttery and laggy mostly when scrolling through menus and Internet pages and while typing it is very stuttery . Anyone getting the same thing ?

I had the very same issue. I discovered my fingerprint scanner didn't work and no one could hear me during phone calls. I also had what i thought was high battery usage (probably a bad fingerprint module). I exchanged mine for a new one, and that one works perfectly. Hope this helps.
I had that problem when I went to art runtime but switched back to dalvik and perfectly fine. Even on art my phone would turn on the screen for odd reasons and find myself calling someone but not even an issue on dalvik.

yea sorry to tell you but you def got a defective device... this phone is the smoothest and fastest device I have ever experienced... go get a new one before it is too late!
Everything has been pretty smooth for me. Only thing is the delay when using the recent apps button.
Wipe first then post..
Wipe first and then post. Being a new phone I really didn't think a wipe would help. After resetting it appears to work correctly the typing lag is gone and scrolling seems to transition fluidly. I'll play the rest of the day and see if it reverts or stays like this.
So to the developers. . What on a fresh , new phone would cause it to act laggy ? And how would a data reset correct it? We are not flashing roms, and the os is untouched during a factory reset.. it's not like I Odined the system over to replace a corrupt system file. Any thoughts ?
Mine works fine. Disabled a bunch of apps and slapped apex launcher on it. So far I'm happy just wishing for root still.

Is it laggy with battery saving mode on or even with normal mode?? I found my laggy and froze with battery saving mode on. I have tried to factory reset and do a rom recovery, disabled all the bloat but no help. so I request for a new one. If suggest if anything is not normal, just get a new one while you're under 14 days warranty period.
Yeah I just might.

Yep, mine has froze and reboot issue, I called VZ and they you should get it in 2 days. They will put the charge on your account (no need for credit card), once received the new device, just ship back the old one and they will credit back 312$ to your account. You must call VZ technical support, not customer service. Tech support has the power to do anything with your phone. Good luck!
The only time I've come across stuttering/lag is playing Sky Force 2014. This game will just not play smoothly on the Note 4. It's very fluid on the S5 however. Maybe it's the upgrade in resolution. I don't know.
Getting ridiculous lag in Hangouts and there is a bit of delay on the recent apps.
I chalk it up to Hangouts being crappy and Samsung being lazy with the recent apps impelentation.. everything else is butter.
Well here is the weird part about mine, it was lag free until i tried flashing a rom. N910w8 model. Then went to tri finger scanner and the app dont launch i get an error, just my luck

Also - Put the note 3 and note 4 next to each other, home screen, say "okay google" note 3 beats it by a full second every time.

Did you turn off animation under the developer tab? It has to be at at least .5
Ever since I rooted my note 4 all it does is lag. My note 3 runs way smoother! I'm not sure why this phone lags all I did was install a couple of xposed modules and that's it.
Any help?
Here is the fix, I had the same problem, Also could not open s health after using xposed.

Yeah. I can't seem to sync s health data after completing the steps from that post.
Not sure what you mean by syncing s-health, just make sure you clear data, and start fresh. I did this fix 4 days ago, and my steps are there for the past 4 days. Everything is still running smooth still also.

After following the steps in that guide, s health wont restore or backup data. I get the following error.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I tried to clear cache/data from both health service and s health and it still shows the same error.
I tried to remove and add back my Samsung account and that didn't work either.
I tried this on 3g and lte but I haven't tried on wifi although I dont think being on wifi should matter.
I did not know that back up/restore existed, so I can not answer that one. Does everything else work on s-health? Can you just start fresh and not use your back up, or is s-health not working at all?

I can start fresh. It just won't backup. It will still record data though. I hope I or someone can help me fix this. I had a but of s health data backed up.

Hope this helps, it fixed all my issues 100%

Didn't work for me. I had to turn off Xposed for now
Double check the security file in the build.prop, maybe you changed the wrong one? I remember several files with security in the name. I am not comfortable messing with those files, so I checked and re-checked for that reason. Also, make sure you follow the order when clearing data, and and re-installing xposed. You only have to uninstall the installer framework, not the app completely, and wanam xposed does not get touched. Hope it helps!
OK I fixed my issue. I went to the s health app. I went to the main screen from the left side pull out menu. Then selected my name, then clicked on my Samsung account at the bottom and selected erase data and reset. Hopefully this will help someone else.
For people with lag after xposed, a person at s4gru said that they installed wanam and checked the circle battery checkbox and it lagged badly. He unchecked that and the lag went away even with xposed and wanam installed. I have not rooted my phone yet to see about lag but will eventually.

yeah, that would be me.
In my case, after rooting the Note 4 and installing my root apps everything was fine until I installed Wanam and checked on the circle battery setting to on. Then it lagged, especially when I click on the drawer icon. It would slowly go up like a snail. After unchecking the circle battery and re-installing Wanam, the lag stopped and its as speedy as day one. Now why the circle battery would make my Note lag when choosing the app drawer is a mystery.

I will have to try this! And my only guess is the different image files the note 4 uses and wanam is probably trying to change it to the circle battery but it just keeps conflicting together.
I have circle battery enabled through Wanam and I don't lag.
What I can't stand is the typing lag. I notice it mostly in Google hangouts and in some other apps. I've tried different keyboards and still the lag is present. I've notice this on my Note 3 as well only when I'm on a touch wiz rom. Anyone know how tor get rid of this typing log?
@DarkManX4lf Same thing here, only lag im getting is when using hangouts. Other then that no lag to be found what so ever.
I just tried hangouts and no lag.
ok, so I went back into Wanam and checked on battery circle and rebooted to see if I can reproduce the previous lag issue I had.
Result: no lag.
This is really odd.

Yep so i got the notification this morning on my un-rooted s6. Since i have a poor signal i decided to update and see if my signal will improve. Will see how it goes as my day wears on...
Maybe it's placebo, but it does seem to help with scrolling and touch screen responsiveness. Since I purchased this phone, that has been a sore spot for me, especially coming from the M8 which is incredibly smooth and responsive.
Also this update adds a new app, Samsung+. Most of you will disable this like I did.
I checked for the update manually and got it first try.
just curious, does this fix the voicemail bug? It's showing I have 2 voicemails, but when I call voicemail there is nothing there.
I've checked with the Sprint VoiceMail app, and by calling and there are no messages.

My voice mail is working on the phone and calling from a land line.
Running good so far. My poor signal at work is still there. At home it can burst up to 25mb on a download so i was hoping my signal at work would improve with an update.
annoying
i've just updated this morning and can't stop annoying from hands free activation,i bought this phone from my friend in US,i already search how to turn it off but this phone need to root first,how can i turn it off without root?

My wife now uses the M8. Sometimes I'll get it and play on it and I can't believe how much more fluid the experience is.
At times I regret getting rid of it, miss xposed and all my mods. :crying:

Agreed. I have the phantom VM notification too. The only way to get rid of it is to clear the data on the phone app.
I don't notice any changes in this update.

im in the same boat, my m8 was a beast, it was a such a lagfree phone, not sure what the issue is with the s6, most of the time phone feels slow, even after data reset, and wipe cache partition.

do not upgrade if you are on 5.0.2 samsung ruined this phone. i get not even 1.2 free ram and it doesn't clear it either unless u use an app to constantly kill the apps unused. so it eventually gets to 800 free ram

Heck that has been happening ever since I got the phone. Terrible multitasking, RAM management, jumpy scrolling right out of the box. I've been terribly disappointed with this phone.
With that said, 5.1.1 update has made things a little smoother on my phone. Battery is still crap and RAM is still jacked, but it does seem a little smoother.
The worst part is seeing the folks in the unified development forum singing the praises for the xstereolite ROM and how good it is on battery, knowing us Sprint users are on the outside looking in.
I am also disappointed 5.1.1 didn't fix the glaring issues with this phone. The 2 new Nexus' are shaping up to be killer. Might have to get y first ever sock Android phone soon if Sammy doesn't get their shizzz together..
no problems with OFE + factory reset. Good battery and no lag.

Performance seems better for me but battery is tanking with Android system using the most at 8%. I'm going to try a factory reset myself.
