I am running MCCM's froyo/Sense SD build. When switching between home screens I get this slight bounce effect (left to right). I wanted to know if it is possible to get rid of this. I have tried to turn off all animation and use 3rd party apps like spareparts but nothing seems to work.
I really just want a fast smooth transition, I don't care for animations. Thanks for any help!
Anyone have any thoughts? I have tried searching but cannot come up with anything
i'm looking for a fix too.
what i found is that it's possible to change the transition effect : http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-hacks/100725-how-mod-custom-transition-animations.html
but what we need to do is to find the stock android transition effect, the fade and slide one.

Time TO rock 'n roll
Ok now i want to use this thread to have a discussion about what should be improved for the galaxy s III users by the software side.
I say
Quality audio in the video recording
Brightness
LED Rgb(colored)
Audio (on listening) with Noise-OFF option ON in the call settings
Scrolling Live/Static Wallpaper UI doesn't change
Anything else?

Reports say that the 'double tap' the top to scroll back up the contacts list...only works on the contacts list. So, hopefully...our devs can make it universal on any screen that needs to be scrolled. Also, maybe a 'double tap on the bottom' as well. (maybe the double tap on the bottom can take us back to the previous screen position)

A way to swap the menu and recent apps key assignments. I'd rather do the left key for recent apps and hold the home key for menu. Also stock ICS theme with all Touchwiz features
- Reduce home button delay - edit: just found out you can decrease delay by going into s-voice settings and disabling double click home shortcut.
- Improve lock screen wake up speed
- 5 instead of 4 lock screen shortcuts (e.g. i'd like to be able to have phone, messaging, email, internet, camera)
- scrolling wallpaper would be cute
- prevent flashing white notification led when phone is charged? or was it for something else? This actually woke me up last night and wouldnt stop until i pulled the power cable.
- ability to swap icons around on the launcher when the grid is full. Is it just me, am I being stupid? because when a launcher page is full, I can't move icons around anymore. I can move icons into folders, but when I drag an icon over another one, they refuse to swap places. Is this normal touchwiz behaviour? if it is, it's going to make organising my home screen severely annoying!
I'm such a dork, I got super excited that someone besides me said scrolling wallpaper. lol

That white LED woke me up too, its way too bright.
I solved most of the other problems by installing NOVA launcher though, phone wake up is instant, home button twice as fast (but generally still slow) and no issues with full icon grids

Yeh, a flashing bright white led is a strange choice. A dim green one would have made more sense.
Might try another launcher then. Do apex and nova have lock screen shortcuts?

NOVA uses the touchwiz lockscreen from what i can tell, so shortcuts are there.
I have actually removed the lockscreen entirely, the phone wakes up much faster.
As for security, I use an app that uses face unlock only when you try to get to settings, play store or any other app you choose. This way I can access my phone quickly for usual things but have the security where i need it.
I'd quite like the ability the rearrange the controls in the notification menu.

How can you customize the lock screen shortcuts? Thanks

1. Auto light level is too low and too slow.
2.RGB LED too light and turn on time is too short.

What can be improved:
- Get rid of the horrible sharpening that creates ugly halos around text on non white backgrounds. (it is software as using power-save L1 in browser eliminates the sharpening)
- Remove a little of the pink tint in color temperature
- Reduce the millions of always running (unquitable) services running to a minimum so that home screen restarts and browser out of memory are less of an issue.
- Make the home launcher system persistent
- Remove the unnecessary animations that slows down the speed of waking up the screen and returning to home screen.
- In browser add ability to access tabs and url bar by tapping menu when in full screen mode.
- Add text reflow to browser similar to htc. The default fit to screen option butchers the look of the webpage overview.
- Add the option to choose between LQ, HQ or HD in youtube app.
Guys I felt the phone was buttery smooth, but on certain occasions I.e. lock screen ripple transition into opening your home screen and toggling between messages in the messaging app, the transition would s stutter just a tiny bit. Problem is solved if you go into:1. Settings-> developer options-> and Window animation scale and Transition Animation scale -> change both of those to .5xThe phone now runs like the beast it was born to be. Try it and let make know your thoughts. Regards, Nik
Well the fourth thread here in general section is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705007 it would have been better if you had noticed it.

Anyone know what "Animator duration scale" in the Developer options settings is?
I'd like to know, too
Seems even google doesn't know since I haven't found the information despite googling for some time.
Since transition and window animations are covered by the other options I can only assume it affects widget animations or something.

This animation is when you press the app tray button.
However, you may change this option and notice it has no effect! Fine, call me a liar. Seriously though...
The reason it will *appear* to have no effect is because the launcher will need to be restarted.
Just set it to .5 or off if you want your app tray to pop up MUCH faster.
I assume this has no effect on custom launchers.

I was looking for this too, and did not find any answer, so I tried to set Animator duration scale to 10x and result is that this is let's say in app animation. In camera app it's animation of hiding settings buttons etc.
Truth is that an app has to be restarted to take effect. Just press recent apps and swype application , you're testing on away.
You can try it or watch video on YT http://youtu.be/Qot4n0EV1SE
hope this helps.
It changes the speed of certain apps animation and some system animation. Keeping it off or lower will increase the speed of animation.

Decided to try out having live origami as my wallpaper, I love it. subtle, not too distracting, low battery consumption and it changes regularly, perfect for my ADD for wallpapers.
However, when I go into settings>display>wallpaper>home+lock and change it to live origami, my homescreen changes no problem, the lock screen does too. But then it resets it to having the light-shaft unlock effect and greys out the option in the lock screen settings.
Is there anyway to prevent this or re-toggle the 'no effect'(just the icon of a lock)?
Did you figure it out
I'm having the same issue as you. Just wondering if you've figured this out already.

Change homescreen only. Can't have live wallpaper on lockscreen and have the light or ripples. Same thing on Note2 with ripple
I think it has to do with performance and possibly look. Samsung can't conttol what the interaction would look like between the live wallpaper and the ripple/light beam.

Kind of the opposite of what my isue is
it defaults TO the light effect and then locks it out from trying anything else. so I have live wallpaper and am forced into the light effect also
