I just updated to MF9 today, and installed TWRP, and I noticed since loading back into MF9, that the screen has some issues with fast motions. I can most prominently see this on the Application Drawer when using Nova Launcher. I was wondering if this is a known issue, or if it is something else all together. I guess wiping data and clearing cache/dalvik MIGHT help, but wanted to confirm before anything else.

My epic is on the stock rom, just rooted. I have made no changes to the phone and the only recent changes were installing winamp and the market update. All of sudden the media scanner, at startup, never finishes and hangs until I force close it. My apps won't update, they download but hang at installing and after several reboots there is no change. The phone randomly makes the sound of lost signal twice in a row as if it looses signal and then finds it again right away even though I have full bars and this has never happened before. Also, CacheMate hangs until i force close it when I tried to clean out the cache to see if that would fix the market issue I was having. So out of nowhere, the market issue (apps not updating), media scanner hanging, and apps not working. Im just hoping that either someone knows what this could possibly be cause from or if im just going to have to hard reset my phone. I do have a backup from clockwork, but unfortunately it is quite old and I might as well just reset everything if it comes down to that. Thanks for the help.
I was running fine all last week but yesterday and today I have picked my phone several times and it has been frozen. Black screen of death I guess you could say.
Has anyone else seen these issues after appying update.zip or completely flashing? I cleared my cache and applied update.zip but if no one else is having the issue after flashing I will probably just do that to make sure it is super clean. I just hate losing all my apps/config.
Thanks.
My VS980 for the third time now randomly started lagging and hanging. By that I mean the main watch on accuweather hangs, sending text messages and downloading hangs, and just switching through home screens and app list the screen freezes and then unfreezes. Apps barely boot and social, calendar widgets do not update, and typing freezes after every word for about 3 seconds. Restart and safe mode do not fix this problem. The previous 2 times I did a hard reset but it seems to only fix the issue for about 5-7 days, but those are annoying, so is there any other solutions or anyone aware of this such type problem?
Is there some certain program you keep re-installing that could be causing issues? Have you tried any custom roms?

Definitely sounds like a rogue program running in the background. My advice is for you to do a hard reset, then install apps one at a time (run it, of course), and find out which program is causing an issue. An alternative is that you google each app to see if others using the same apps have issues.
I got this phone recently from insurance, could it be something in Kernel issue or something else? I did another hard reset, I'll look out for any apps, but it happened randomly without any downloads or installs. I have no custom roms, and I only have news apps and 3 games from EA.
Question - Could this possibly be spawned by originally having rooting problems? The phone was sort of frozen on my first root attempt for some unknown reasons, the command box suddenly froze and the android icon was frozen, I had to restart my phone and attempt root again even though the previous root attempt started and was cut off, and the first time the lag issue happened was the next day. Do you think I should try un-rooting and re-rooting my phone? Or is that irrelevant.
Past oomberr
Are you running any custom roms, kernel, mods? Recovery installed?
Possibly a modem problem
I had this problem on my G2, and changing my modem seemed to fix it. I was using EUR KK modem even though I'm in the Middle East. Try changing to your region specific modem and then it can fix it, a dalvik/normal cache wipe can help. If all fails then try wiping, or switching roms.
I've had my Nexus 4 since it launched in Oct/Nov 2012 (Don't remember the month), and I've had no problems until recently.
I've searched touch screen and digitizer issues and didn't see anything specifically like I'm having. I've been running my Nexus 4 stock and unrooted since I got it, and recently the navigation bar goes crazy. And by crazy, I mean it thinks I'm pushing back/home/recent apps over and over again. Sometimes it goes away for an hour or so, and then it will come back.
I've installed LiquidSmooth and am using the PIE navigation for now, but does anyone know what is causing this? I figured it would be software, but its still doing it after I installed a custom ROM, so now I'm thinking its a hardware issue.
Anyone else have this? Any ideas on what could fix it?
Thanks!
might be hardware,digitizer issue, i would fastboot back to stock and factory reset and see if it persists. backup first though.
so with pie does it still goes crazy where the navibar should be?, go in developers menu and select show pointer location when it does
Hi
I updated swype yesterday, which went fine in itself. I restarted the phone couple hours later, and the phone got stuck on the Samsung logo. Tried restarting, pulling out the battery, nothing did the trick.
Clearing the cache's helped, but only to some extend. Immiedietly after going into homescreen, apps started to crash, starting from Nova Launcher.
Loading the nandroid backup that I did in june helped, so much so, that I pinpointed that swype was the one app that messes things up. I loaded the nandroid backup of broken OS that I did, and tried to uninstall swype from adb which went fine, but the problem did not go away, which makes me believe something is deeply broken over here.
Anybody had similar expieriences in the past, and could point me out to how to fix the problem? I really would hate to re-do all the things I did on the phone since june.

so, let me try and understand this, if you don't update swype, there is nothing wrong with your phone?
Correct. For now I'm on my june nandroid backup and everything works as expected.
Solved
It turned out this update made swype be disabled in the OS keyboard settings, and combined with the fact I froze native keyboard apk, it made unnexpected results after every boot.
Once I restored the native keyboard apk in my june image, swype update went fine, and everything is back to normal.
