Does anyone's S6 edge have this problem where you are typing a text, at least 10 words long or more, and the screen don't recognize touch input just once, but it happens every 15 to 20 words? Its freaking annoying and I've since switched to the google keyboard and this problem don't happen as much, but the problem is still there, its caused me to misspell at least 7 words so far that the keyboard has auto corrected. This is so damn annoying and I hope I'm the only one that has this problem that way I can take this phone back and get it replaced.
I guess I'm the only one
Happens to me sometimes, but not all the time. It's probably a RAM problem. I usually clean/close some opened apps with Cleanmaster to prevent lag. Hope the next update will fix memory management problem.
I'm on Android 5.1.1 and it supposedly has fixed the RAM issue and the problem still exists. I don't think it's a RAM issue. I think it's a software issue that when you type too fast it stops recognizing the presses. Hapes mainly with the backspace key. If I tap that button like 20 times it will stop pressing it no matter how hard I press.
I want to say this is a Edge thing not a S6 thing.
Try a different keyboard from play store, also try closing apps in background.
I haven't noticed the ever on this incredible phone.
Running stock no root yet, with 3 pages of apps disabled.
Pp.
I apologize for resurrecting this thread but, I've been searching for a while with no avail. Since I've upgraded to 5.1.1 I've been experiencing this issue. Has anyone in the time of this thread found a possible fix for this?
I've tried multiple things, maybe going to have to resort to cleaning up with a factory reset.
This phone is so beautiful, yet functions like a POS, minus the camera. It just sits on desk collecting dust. I too have the aforementioned issue, along with dozens of others. First phone I've ever regretted buying.
Hi chaps
I've had my note 2 for nearly 3 years so it's getting on a bit. I've got Android Revolution HD v31 on it, supposed to be one of the most stable roms I think?
Sometimes I get a problem where the keyboard shows up like normal, and when I type it gives the haptic feedback and the app acts like you're typing, but nothing actually enters into the textbox. When I get this problem it can be quite persistent, and it happens in all apps. Chrome/whatsapp/messenger, you name it. I've experienced this with Swiftkey, but also the stock samsung keyboard. Restarting fixes it too but just waiting a few minutes and coming back or force closing all apps and trying again usually works too.
This is really really irritating (probably happens ~20% of the time I go to use the keyboard) - As soon as I get some time I'm going to flash the original samsung firmware again and start afresh but I don't have ODIN setup on this laptop anymore and I don't currently have the time. Any short term solutions or the fastest way to get back to stock would be ideal. Cheers!
Hi, I'm having an issue in my A5 2017, is not a big deal but it's starting to be really annoying.
I will explain it the best I can.
Whenever I tap on a writting box (don't know how it is said actually) in Facebook, WhatsApp, Firefox, etc., and start immediately to write something, it freezes like for 2-3 seconds. For example, open a WhatsApp conversation, tap the writing box, keyboard shows up, I write "hello, how are you?" and after that 2-3 seconds of lag, the sentence I wrote appears really fast. Also the letters of the keyboard won't pop up as you write the sentence, they will pop up all of them together really fast after it "defreezes". It happens every time I send something. If I wrote that and send it, in the next sentence will happen again. The same happens when I tap the "back button" to close keyboard and again to go back to WhatsApp chats, it lasts 2-3 seconds.
Don't know why it's happening, I haven't changed anything in keyboard settings since I bought it. The phone is working perfect, fast, everything ok except that thing.
Thanks!

You have too many apps running in the background / installed.
Try to reflash stock rom, and disable some apps that you don.t use, because RAM is limited !

I don't know what to do, I've restarted it.
I'll try reinstalling whatsapp, but I don't think it will fix it because it happens in every app I have to write something.
Try another keyboard, try google keyboard or download default one and say if problem is gone.
If not, factorry reset your device.
Well, just in case if you want to check if it is an performance problem, i would suggest you install an CPU Meter (like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.als.usagetimelines) and ram meter, so you can see the usage in the statusbar. If the freezes are happening at high usage / usage spikes it could be a performance / ram problem.
several issues, don't get rid of it, it's 2 weeks out of the box
Hello i'm having several issues with my 2 weeks new A5 SM-520F bought in germany, i don't get rid of it, seems be a defect or samsung brought finaly the crapiest FW at all, i dont want to flash and solve problem on my own, and void the garanty.
here we go issue 1:
Out of the box after first charging to 100% (phone off), turned on, did all the updates, put my sd card, all my stuff is on the card, then i recovered there is 20GB of internal storage occupied...serious? normal? seems gigantic for android, on my old experia with last update to 7 it has something about 6 to 7 Gig.
Issue 2:
My Battery is down after a day with no usage, only dispaly always on feature to inform about messages, there is no more LED...
I deactivated it to test it out, it is better, but when i turns display on, today i was browsing some while waiting, 5 to 8 % went away in minutes, this can not be?!Normal? Bad Batery?
Issue 3:
Like other ppl mostly all my vidz are mp4, but my rediculously NEW A5 of year 2017 (sounds fashy huh) seem not be able to play them, it always want convert them to wmv no one using or want using anymore...
Is that just a save up money on license for the codecs? In my opnion... horrible, to bring such fashy sonorous smarthone of 2017 new generation...without mp4 support oO
Would MX with custom codec do it ?
Ty very much Guys!
Did you try Factory Reset?
Trying now, it seems the whole system tree is broken partition E:/ misc not find, and multiple errors.. trying mounting something and not get rw- root permission and error, i get in recovery for reset and swaps through the last recovery log...mysterious
When issues will remain i will manual download the official FW and throw it through sideload, when nothing help i'll give it back...
Sad that a new device not a cheap one and so many probs....
I've red about multiple problems nearly the same as me, they've all mentioned the ultra fast battery drain, it seems that nougat is kinda broken with all its fabulousness and will be patched...soon...somehow...maybe?

For video, mine doesn't have any issues with other format besides mp4, mkv played using mx player or default video player all goes smoothly

Since I got the device 2 months ago I have been facing a severe and weird issue, I don't understand if the problem is with the display or something else, what I found is when I type something in WhatApp or anywhere at the usual speed that we type, some alphabets needs to be pressed twice.
For example if I had to type a word "Motorola", it comes out like "Moorola". I have to cut and type again slowly and hardly. When I just type something like "Where are you going", its comes out to be "Whre are yo goig" or something like that.
I have even tried resetting the device, clearing data of keyboards and also using stock and 3rd party keyboards but the problem still persists.
Any Solution Please.:crying:
Some part of touchscreen is not working at all. But rest of the screen is working fine. Please suggest something

I too am facing a similar issue though the touch screen works fine. But the alphabets are left out when I type fast on any keyboard.
