screen response delay

Hello
Whenever i require to scroll through a scroll screen, i noticed a delay after i start touching the screen trying to scroll.
for example if you long press the home screen and the list of widgets comes up, this list does not start scrolling immediately when you try to do that with your finger, a delay is noticed
has anyone experienced that, and how can this be resolved
Thanks

Try a lag fix

What is new with Home Button Lag ?!

Hi ,
Any news regarding the home button lag ?
I don't mean the wake up lag, which is annoying too but it's hardware issue.
I mean the home button lag, which means any program I running, and pressing the home button, it takes something like 1-2 seconds to return to home screen !!
I know this issue has been raised 1000 times (!!!) and that is the exact reason I am talking about this, it's annoying so many people, so how could it happen that it hasn't been resolved yet ?!
This is 100% software issue , CM7 for example doesn't have that. But I don't want to use CM7 ....

I also have it and it drives me crazy.

Disable voice2go and the other parts of the samsung TTS thing, use titanium backup or something, you will need to be rooted.
As when you press the home button it is waiting to see if you are going to double press it to activate the voice control.

Did that, it doesn't help mate.

Oliwe has figured out a solution that requires some dev expertise:

I tried it myself and failed, but I'm sure ROM cookers will start implementing this ASAP.

Still a non issue

[Q] Save the lock button

Most of the problems caused is due to the frequent use of the lock unlock button, so I was thinking if we could if at all possible, not use the button!!
->The first thing is that if we could re-map the function of that button to some other button, like to the call button which is useless! We have the kind of remap in the Windows phone roms, something of that kind for the Android roms! Maybe!!
-> OR maybe create a script that runs so as to lock the screen as if the lock button was pressed! the code that actually runs when you press the lock button! a widget can be created to lock the screen and you can unlock it by just pressing any button!! This is just gonna require little programming!
This is just a thought that i came across, and my question to the Devs is that if at all any of this is possible, can we do it?? So as to save our almighty LEO!!

There are tonnes of apps and widgets that can do this already, just use one of those. I'm sure there's even a way to put it in the notification bar so that you have easy access anywhere within the OS.

Thanks for the reply.. Why are we waiting to have it in each of our roms then!! We must have it inbuilt in the rom so that all the button based problems are solved!
p.s can you name a few apps/widgets that you said can do the job??

I strongly disagree with that, there's no reason to have it built in into the ROM. I for one would never use it, because it's just so much easier to press the power button. Sure, it dies eventually, but by then most would have moved on to a new device. Having had this phone for two years now, I haven't had any issues with the power/lock button.
As for the apps and widgets, search on Google Play and find them yourself.

[Q] Hardware keys not working properly

Hi I am on 4.4.2 stock rom rooted. All of a sudden the multitasking key on my S5 when held no longer brings up the menu in any app or home screen it just opens the multitasking as if I pressed it instead of holding. Also, I can no longer take screenshot via pressing the home button and power button at the same time as it just opens Google now. I have home2 launcher installed to open Google now instead of svoice but this does no longer works as well. I am not sure how the problem occurred out of the blue. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

First, you have to distinguish between the key failing to work per se and a key that works fine but does a different action than you expected. If you meant the latter, then simply reassign the function that you prefer to the key.
You said that you had a third party launcher change a key action which no longer works. So go back to your custom launcher settings and reinitialize that setting again. If your app doesn't let you adjust those settings, then reinstall the app to have your key preference set again. Or use an app like xposed to remap the key function.
Another example that you cited was the "multitasking key". That isn't a standard label, so it's uncertain which key you are referring to, but probably you mean the left soft key, located to the left of the home button. Test it by dialing *#0*#
Then Sub key on the hardware test menu
Inevitably the test will show that the key works fine and you just need to remap it's function.
Likewise with your screen shot issue. Go back to whatever app setup that key combination to take a screen shot with those two keys and reset it again.

Thanks for the reply, how do you go about remapping the softkey. The screenshot issue has nothing to do with a third party app I have uninsulated all launchers and used the stock touchwiz launcher and the problem persists. All buttons work fine for around 30 seconds after I boot then they start acting as previously mentioned which leads me to believe it's an app that has somehow changed the functions of the hardware keys. I just wanted to know if anyone had a clue what's causing it as I have tried and it is driving me up the wall.

Please use paragraphs, those walls of text are hard to read.
Agreed that it sound like apps loading after boot are customizing the key functions in ways that you don't like. You can disable or uninstall as many apps as possible and add them back one at a time to see which ones cause problems. Or, as mentioned previously, use xposed framework to remap the key functions.
You're hoping for a short cut in having someone name what specific apps are involved. That's a long shot at best that someone would just happen to know. And you should have at least listed all of the apps on your phone to narrow it down.. or help jog someone's memory.

Home key and app swap soft key not working
I have a galaxy s5 and just updated to lollipop 5.0 and then the home key and app swap key stopped working. Also it was running very slowly and I thought maybe it was because I had 384 apps installed (11 gig). Anyway it was driving me crazy but I didn't want to perform a factory reset. Too many programs into to lose..
I followed the instruction to take out the SD card and SIM card and restart without the SIM card and they started working again so I replaced the SIM card and it works fine now..
Thank you forum..

Camera issue with various ROMS

Lately I've been having a weird issue with my camera, stock or modded on any rom.
When I open the camera and press on the little smiling emoji, it opens the screen like it should but there is nothing on it, no icons etc.
If when the screen is opened and i press the + button i get a message "unaable to find application to perform this action"
When I install a new rom I always do a full wipe
Any help appreciated

Help please

I'm pretty sure that the ROMS you installed are debloated. So they took off and unistalled certain apps, in your case: stickers for the camera app :/
You can ask the developer if he can give you the zip, but it's unlikely!
Hope I was clear!
