I like the default S-Note app, if it wasn't for the INCREDIBLE slowness of it, on an otherwise very fast phone.
Why is it taking like two seconds to open a note, save it, etc.?
Anybody have an idea if its operations could be sped up somehow?
I totally agree with you on this; I think it hasn't been written properly. The devs should do something about it.

have to agree, its not nearly as fast as the rest of the phone
I just keep thinking there must be some glitch, which is causing it to misbehave, as it pauses without a reason, and it's not the phone slowness...
If we would find out how to make it faster, it would make for a definitely a much better experience.
Perhaps people who flash the latest ROMs could chime in here, if they see a marked improvement in S-Note speed...

I´m sure you didn´t meant it this way, but just to make that clear: It is not that any dev should do something about it...
--> someone may kindly ask if there is a dev out there, that want to sacrifice his free time for this!
Yeah, definitely slow.
I'm assuming it's just because it's kind of new, and it will be faster with newer releases.
That was one of the first things I noticed when I first got the phone. Everything else is fast!

Yeah, I'm agree with you.. Love this apps but hate the slow response when opening and saving.. Hope they will fixed this on the next update firmware..
yup, kinda slow here as well.
Opening and saving a note takes alot of time in here aswell. No change to that even if I flashed ARHD 4.0 and redpill kernel. Also if I zoom in the S-note and write by handwriting the lines are drawn extremely slow and nonresponsively. Would be great it samsung would address these issues with S-note in the future updates.

There's a misunderstanding here, when I said devs I meant the original program developers not the ones here in Xda.

Its got something to do with sucky ram management in touchwiz.
The main apps which are supposed to be in the RAM all the time like dialer and s note are on least priority
Lose hope that Samsung will do something about it...they're customer care is poor.
Sadly though, bear with it or use a different app
I'm sure it has nothing to do with RAM management. Some opening / saving operations are slowing it down, or are wrongly implemented.
This when app is in memory, so it has nothing to do with swapping in out of memory, and thus Touchwiz.
I don't think too that this slowness of the app is related to the poor ram management.
If You use another note taking app You could see that this is very fast and responsive.
The major lag of the original Snote app is when You tap to create a new note and when You swith the pen to different tools or color.
Hope that Samsung could improove it in next Firmware:silly:

Anybody seen the new motorola x phone's touchless google now feature??
can it be ported to the nexus 4??
please devs try to port it when phones come out..
i am sure many people would want it.
Thanks!
The moto x uses an extra CPU for that feature so it either wont be possible or very battery and hardware hungry.

Yep it's a specialized DSP-core that's NOT ARM based.

It will likely be ported, but according to the Moto article it specifically stated this special DSP allows them to have such great battery. The Nexus has a DSP, however the X has two new DSPs from Moto(as part of the "octo X8").
Two of the promoted features of the Moto X are Active Display and Always-on google now. To answer your question directly, yes they will be ported. But, will it be practical to use in everyday life? Probably not. This is because of the battery drain that these would have. Both these feature have some specialized hardware support (different screen, special CPU cores etc) for these functions and are kind of the main selling points of the device. So, it is unlikely that we're going to see this in full force on our Nexus devices.

Thanks for the information!!
Well today I installed the slyle potrait app which Sony finaly released, in two minutes I got the the notorious message saying that the camera will close if it keeps getting warm and after one more minute it closed. Could it be that the one to blame for the overheating is the camera software itself because I've never seen the message before and I've done some serious usage of the camera. I'll leave a link to the playstore so you can test it on your own!!! Any other thoughts would be much appreciated.

I was thinking install that app today... After your experience I won't install it. At least not for now.

Its not only this app problem. Open camera and go to Effects, play with it for few sec and you gonna get message that phone is to hot...
Its actually hilarious that most of companies had time to create window with info about to "hot phone", instead of spending this few minutes thinking: "wait... we just created phone and app that get really hot making it no usable at all... maybe we should fix that? hmmm?"
I would not be mad if companies would spend this 2-3 months getting their balls together and make optimized phone and apps, instead of covering their failure behind window like "phone need to cool down... closing app"
Sad part is that its not only Sony problem, most of phones have this... No one give a flying crap to think about it and fix it...

I didn't say that the app is not good actually the effects are amazing but it is so frustrating that after 3 minutes the app closes
It never occurred to you that these apps are heavily using CPU and/or GPU?
Also, I did a heatsink mod (copper plating) inside my phone - kind of helps with heat still yet to post the photo guide though, will do it soon!

i use creative effects all the time and i never had any problem with the camera closing because of heat (you cant be serious that style potrait uses that much the cpu)
My back panel is unglued because of heat(i would like to say that it's joke but nope) so im gonna change it next month so I would like to se how you made that heatsink mod.
I did a lot of such mods in netbooks and laptops, but phone don't have much room for such mods, so I'm really curious about that...

I will share when I find the time to write it my back cover never came loose but I definitely noticed heat fatigue on both the SoC and... Another chip, can't remember what it was - maybe the radio (it was a semi-large chip, second biggest after the SoC). Photos are on my other phone and its flat at the moment, I'll find out when I actually do the guide and look at mainboard diagrams again

Why can't I be serious? Fact is that the SoC is one die containing CPU, GPU and RAM. In normal circumstances these are the highest consumers of power and generators of heat. An exception is if you've got heavy traffic on radio though, and I mean max bandwidth on a LTE or 802.11ac connection, for an extended period of time; I doubt it was that in this case. Or maybe it was...?
Also as a developer I know that software can have bugs that cause unnecessary CPU or GPU usage. You're just speculating here without hard evidence... If you can monitor CPU/GPU clock speeds and/or temperatures while this happens and show us that it's not high, then I will stand corrected.

well i tested it and it seems you were right but still i cant get it, why when both apps (creative effects and style potrait) use around 80% of the CPU, creative effects takes around 14-15 minutes to close and the style potrait just 2 minutes??
Maybe it's a bug. Is this a brand new app? I don't run stock sorry, not up to speed on the Sony specific stuff.
It could also be a simple case of neglect for our ol' Z.
Either way, cross your fingers and hope it gets solved in an update. It certainly sounds like it shouldn't be working so intensively.

no its not new and its not a case of neglect because i had flashed the app to my phone quite some time ago
But your OP says you installed some app which Sony just released?
I meant neglect from Sony; ever since KitKat our devices have had issues. But, on that note, how does (whatever old app you're talking about) working fine in the past but worse now = not a case of neglect? If the app is an identical version and your firmware is also identical version to when it was working well, but now its not working well, then it could very well be a case of wear and tear. I don't really understand, I'm just going through the process of elimination.

i flashed the app from a mod, the app wasnt meant to be installed at sony xperia z but now sony published the app at Play Store for all xperia (i think some old ones are not combatible). The app had the same issues before but i didnt want to post a thread before since it wasnt officialy combatible with my phone
Hope you can help me since it seems I can't find a solution to this: I have a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F), when I play a 3D game it's smooth for 10-15 minutes then it starts stuttering heavily and the games become unplayable. Using trepn profiler I noticed that the cpu and gpu frequency are really low when using a 3d game (for examole the gpu is stuck at 200 mhz and doesn't want to go up). It seems to happen when the phone heats up a bit but it's not too hot so why the hell does it happen? On my note 3 all games go perfectly :/ (i have android lollipop 5.1.1)

There are TWO ways to solve this issue....follow either one of the methods
METHOD ONE:
{{{{{disable DVFS...use custom kernel and downlock the cpu to 1.9ghz because throttling starts when cpu hits certain temperature...Downclocking the cpu will help you to maintain consistently low cpu temperature which will not trigger cpu n gpu throttling....}}}}}
METHOD TWO:
root ur device
download NOMOne resloution changer from play store
set your resolution in 1920x1080 and set Dpi to 480ppi
select apply...and play any game...it wont lag
after finished playing that game...select restore default settings in NOMone app
Bingo.......adreno 420 runs every game smoothly in 1080p
So Far these are the only 2 methods that i found to be working in Note 4 snapdragon variant

Or use this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-gltools-1-29-t2828630
You can configure GPU settings per app like forcing 16 bit or lower resolutions or even emulate tegra chipset to play those games too.
btw u must have ROOT for this.
(for the GearVR users here this does not break the services like xposed framework)

Face the reality. To make Note4 playable in 3d games either chipset you choose, you'll have to root and follow any advice from the posts in this thread.
I couldn't face it though and decided to go for the Mate 8 when it's released. Sam**** don't deserve our money after making fools out of us sam fans.

My experiance and conclusion is as I recommend everybody to do, buy the phone, test it out for yourself. Return it if it's ****, or eliminate it's existence and move along with your life.
I felt fooled by Sam**** tbh. Hate when my intelligence is being mocked. So just hit them back where it hurts as it supposed to

I'm an android fanboy and always have been however, it's bothering me that the DJI android app doesn't seem very compatible with Android / Samsung devices...
..After a bit of googling it seems like it may be a resourcing issue or something like that where the app can't get CPU or RAM to process the live video stream from the drone, which breaks up and pixelates... with occasionally app crashes. (I've personally only ever had a single crash but i think that was to do with my SD card).
I once read it was something to do with android having so many variants/variables where Apple iOS is much more strict...yada yada.
I am running debloated superman ROM v2.4.1, however across the board there seems to be an issue...
Just wondering if some Android Guru out there could have a look at this in the hope of coming up with a solution... maybe a mod or an app, something that could be used to prioritise the DJI app and clear memory, or otherwise if it's another issue!
Apparently, since Nougat update the issue has got worse. I would tend to agree with this..Personally I use a S7E and also new Tab S3...Both have the pixelation and signal breaking up issue.
DJI have also apparently contacted Samsung about a 'known issue's with Nougat however not seen anything.
I don't want to buy an iPad and just have been dealing with poor performance thus far, just thought I'd put it out there to see if someone fancys a challenge ?? ?
Much obliged. Cheers for reading!

Nope - but read that [depending on circumstances] flying with Litchi can affect warranty. So have been a bit hesitant.
Also, it's another £20 or so on play store?
Think I might have to bite the bullet though. Not sure the UI is as good as GO 4? Anyone?
So frustrating when you spend all that on a piece of kit and they can't pull their software / Devs together to accommodate some of the most popular android devices.
Anyone have any idea what can do to resolve this 'incompatibility' issue?
