I've noticed this problem from the day I got my phone (10/10/13). I'll experience a full second or more of lag when trying to wake the phone by hitting the home button or the power button.
It's pretty bad, so much so that I sometimes think I may have missed the button and go for it again.
Is this common? I've searched online and I haven't found anything about the Note 3 but I see stuff about it happening on the previous Note.
One thing u can try that made speed things up slightly is to go into developers options and turn off or change the transition animation scale, Window animation scale and Duration animation scale. It won't brake anything and it just may help a little. The default setting for each is a 1 so I'd either change em all to a 0.5 or turn em to off. And hell, if u don't think it helps you can always change em back. Worth a shot at least.

Nice tip. In all my years of Android tweaking, I've never come across that one. I don't need fancy screen on/off animations. I prefer quicker response time. Thanks.
This phone is fast enough to where you should be able to do screen on animation with no lag. I'd try wiping cache before disabling anything

I have noticed this too... bugs the hell out of me. i tried putting animations to .5 cause i think it makes the phone look like crap when set to 0, helped a little bit but it is still there.
I noticed this last night. I was missing the swipe to unlock because it was taking so long. Seems ok now, though.
I found a slightly faster response with the three animation options set to 0.
I think its a touchwiz thing my s4 did it stock and it went away with Hyperdrive rom but it came back when I was on cynanogen mod. I feel like my I wore out my power button lol it is a little loose.

Its a Samsung thing with the processor. The Note 2 was the same way. The easiest way explained to me awhile back....once your screen goes off...and all stuff running finishes up...you essentially enter Deep Sleep. It's a battery saving feature...if you will.
Manually turn off your screen, then like..2 seconds later, turn it back on. Should be virtually instant. Now do the same thing but wait 2 minutes....lag.
It is 'kind of' annoying, but I'll deal with it for the sake of battery life.
Now that we have root, you can always try to adjust governors and kernel settings to help it, but until we're able to use other kernels, it's gonna pretty much always be there, the lag, that is.
Hope that helps explain a bit.
The only way around it on the Note 2 was to force a wake lock, basically it never enters deep sleep. You may be able to use an app to do it as well, such as: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl
MikeyXDA was an advocate of the method and explained it really well on his MeanBean ROM for the Verizon Note 2. You just take a slight hit to battery, but at least there's no wake lag.

I'm having a problem with wake lag bad sometimes - several seconds. Mine seems to be connected to the sd card. I have a 32 gb card I used in my note 2 with no problem, it's and sdhc i think. I cleaned it down to 8g of stuff on it and put it in. It kept causing note 3 to dis mount the card each time I turned it on; had a little message at the top left. Much of the time the card would stay dismounted. When I finished a call the screen would not come back on for a long time, couldn't end the call. Took the sd card out, problem resolved. Backed up the sd card, put it in the N3 and formatted. Got better results although still doing it some. I'm wondering if I'm going to have to get a new sd card or trade in for a new note 3.
Any thoughts. I would check the sd card if you still see long lags.
Try to freeze/remove S Voice if you rooted because S Voice is mapped to double tapping the home button. This helped me out a lot on the Note 2 and I removed it already on the Note 3 without comparing lag difference already

Don't label me with the same brush as the op. I was trying to ascertain if he had the startup lag from the custom kernel used for the lag fix with samset. I said it was probably normal - I refrained from calling him an impatient fussy so and so. Abuse him all you like, leave me out of it.

How is this normal on any device? as my touch diamond didn't have it, my ****ty nokia 5800 didn't have it, my htc artemis, htc tytn II, do i need to continue?
It's 0.5s-1.5s. But mostly 0.5s, that's why i said that.
If you don't have a solution, just don't post , i flashed jp3 to try it out, and the delay i've got from jm2 is gone. Hmmm, guess the delay wasn't normal after all.
Damn, i feel like i'm on a chatbox with 12-year old's.
And no, i don't mean Bynar010 to be clear.
Hello all.
This wake up lag is killing me, coz its 1.5s most of the time.
I did apply the lag fix kernel, and that was worse at times. So now i simply reflashed it (JM5 now) and removed the SD card.
Is there anything else I gotta to to remove this fix, or re-flashing removes it ok?
Thanks in advance
I am also having this problem. It can be anywhere from half to three seconds . I have just flashed to jm5 and applied the one click internal lag fix. Anyone know what I can do to fix this. Thanks in advance.
Same problem here on JM2 + 1 click lag fix. I previously use JM2 + memocan and not found this problem. Wondering why others with 1 click lag fix didn't realize this since it's very longer (mine's about 3 sec).
3 second is nothing...
just pressing the POST button to this took more than 3 sec
In that case not only this phone sux, but your internet connection isn't much better..
Please just reply if you can help us with this problem. I like the phone, but the power-on delay is just annoying. I use it instead of a watch too. Wouldn't you care if you had to look at least 3 seconds at your watch before you could see the time, EVERY time you looked?
As i said, this is just annoying, other phones i've owned didn't have a delay like this, not even the WM ones.
i don't know about you, but the last WM phone and PalmOS phone i've had took at least 1 sec to display
yes i use my phone as a watch as well, i don't carry a watch with me
Just to throw it out there, mine lags about 0.25 to 0.5 seconds on average. I'm on JM5 without root.
Do you mean lag when you press the power button to unlock your phone, or when you switch on your phone? It's of course normal during switching on the phone. But I also experience a lag when unlocking the phone (~1 second). It only happens when I haven't used the phone for 5 minutes or more. Doesn't happen if I lock it and immediately try to unlock it again. I believe it's the chipset waking up from sleep or something.
@ AllGamer:
The ones i had: HTC: S100, Artemis, Kaiser, Touch Diamond.
They all went on faster. I didn't have the problem at first (with stock firmware), guess it started after my first flash (to jm2), but the problem stays when i flash back to the stock firmware, that's the strange part..
@ ssj4Gogeta1:
I mean the delay when you press the power (or home) button when the phone is already powered on, and it happens everytime, even when i press the power button, wait 5 seconds, and press it again. Nowdays, it's at least 1.5s every time.
Lol, would be great if i meant the power-on time.
the thing is, all phones i've had, will go slower and slower the more apps i install into them
the same applies to SGS.
to keep them fast, i always only install apps that i'm really going to use.
i used to clam every single piece of software i can put my hands on into the phone before, that always lags the phone to death.... although so far the SGS is holding quite well
still testing out a lot of software, but once i'm done i'm going to stream line it with only the stuff i want in it.
Regarding the delay with the Home button, that is not the same as Power button.
See now we understand you better, it does takes a split second after you wake up the phone with the home button.
however anything longer than 1 sec is not quite right, if you have that sort of lag, try optimizing the phone.
recent firmware updates like JH1 or JH2 depending where you are, have made vast improvement on performance
in the worse case scenario you can try the one click lag fix from the Dev section of the forum
are you still on the stock firmware?
Hi guys,
I just purchased a Galaxy Note 3 a week ago. However, I'm noticing that this phone has a major problem (at least, I consider it a problem). Turning the screen on and off has a bit of a delay.
To show what I mean I made this video in which I use a Desire HD to compare it with.
You can clearly see that the Desire HD turns on and off immediately, however.. the fancy Note 3 has to wake up, make a pot of coffee, read the morning news and then decides to switch on the screen.
Is this just my phone? Do more people experience this? Why does my phone do this?
I don't have a second Note 3 and I'm waiting for somebody to test it with. So I'd like to know how other Note 3 owners experience this.
There are many other things about this phone that really disappoint me, but this is one of the things that annoy me the most.
(p.s. I already tried a factory reset, didn't chance a thing...)
Thanks you for any replies/help.

Something up there mate my phone is on soon as i press the button
my guess is ...
that its "some form of lag" caused by an app ??
have you got Svoice enabled ? /
or otherwise its some "app setting "( eg a launcher/camera )
that power button functions , is also assigned to and causes delay ??
Further have you check Svoice settings ?
it does sometimes cause lag as it waits for second press on "home button "
i disabled it completely /otherwise uncheck in S voice settings.
have you tried to wake phone with home button press,not power button.?( any lag ? )
i use Sview cover to open cover and note 3 wakes up straight away !(use no power button at all )
but if i press power button ,wakes up ....immediately !
same with me pressing home button,wakes up ..immediately.!
(No lag at all .)
(but above then,is my experience in tracking " cuplits/apps " responsible for various lags on my phone
The result is my phone is very, very smooth ,no lags or hiccups....
I have the N9005 ,stock, not rooted .
good luck.
Thanks for the replies guys.
I don't have any launcher apps running. I like to keep things smooth and optimized, so I turn off everything I don't need. No Air Gesture, No Svoice etc.
I've been playing with this the last week, and haven't really been able to find anything.
However, I just wanted to delete some stuff and reset some settings and removed my SD card to be safe. Since I removed the card, it seems the screen reacts a bit faster....
But does that make any sense? Could there be anything that could cause this lag/delay that has to do with the SD card?
My current card is a 16gb class 2. But I can't find any info on why the phone would slow down when a slow SD card is used.... Just doesn't make much sense.
In the meantime I continue testing and trying. Others have said that there might be something wrong with my phone, but when I compare stuff with other Note 3 tests, then it all seems ok. Installing an app takes the same time, opening a heavy app too, starting up is just as fast and even after a full factory reset everything seems to be fine.
Mine has a bit of a delay too...I was wondering if it was only me. With mine it's pretty erratic though - sometimes it takes a full second or so to activate the screen, while other times it comes on almost instantly.
I did notice on many occasions using the home button to wake is quicker, plus it's generally easier to get to one handed.
p.s. do you have the Verizon variant?
Good to read that somebody else noticed this to.
In the mean time I have been testing some more. After disabling almost anything that could have to do with either cpu usage or lockscreen usage, removing the SD card, removing the sim card, deleting many apps and using a very low res image, the phone becomes almost as quick as the Desire HD.
There is still a difference, the Note 3 is still a tiny little bit slower, but it has been improved.
However, if I need to do all this radical stuff to make a 2.3 ghz powerhouse perform the same as a 4 year old 1 ghz calculator.... then this phone is just not worth the money I spent on it.
Very, very dissapointed.
After my testing I applied all my previous settings, apps and such to a phone from my friend. Just like you said (siciliano) there is a noticable delay. An erratic delay, but still noticable. Sometimes it's really quick, other times it's really slow.
My Desire HD has never shown any delay... not even when I'm downloading 5 apps at the same time (which makes it quite slow).
This phone will go on for sale tomorrow. I'm not gonna spent 600 euro on a toy that can't perform the way it should.
p.s. No, it's not a Verizon phone. I bought the phone, without phone-plan or anything. Just the phone itself.
Hi,
I think it's very safe to assume that if you think there's a problem then there likely is. Sometimes you have to turn the question round or switch focus... scratch your head all day about 99 maybes yet you have 1 factor that swings it.
Certainly when it comes to testing leave things out like memory cards or SIMs. Sounds like you have and it's not happy. All might not be lost though. Perhaps the stock firmware didn't load well. Have you tried updating OTA or via Kies or Odin? And was the device bought from a regular vendor?

I just checked mine - same delay. So I restarted it. Now no delay.
@jonty, I got the phone from a well known Dutch re-seller (phonehouse). Unfortunately my results and/or problems seem to be repeatable, which makes me believe that it's not just my phone.
I h aven't used any other ROMs, but I did give it a factory reset (twice in 2 weeks...) and I have swiped the cache. Both did not make a difference.
Even better, right after the reset, the delay is bigger then when I optimize the settings (which means turning pretty much anything and everything off... stripping down the phone via settings).
@Bulbous, how did it take you to get the delay back again. I've tried restarting a few times, but after +/- 5 minutes the delay was the same again.
I just don't understand why a powerhouse like this phone has so much trouble with such a simple thing....
It's like asking Einstein to tell me 1+1=? and then he has to take his calculator out....
If you experience lag like this something is wrong. Note 3 should have no lag at all. I have about 150 user apps adding to the stock apps and have never experienced any lag whatsoever.
If you do, you have fu..ed up your phone somehow..

slight delay like 0.5 sec to 1 sec is ok cos it is normal as the phone required to enter deep sleep. (google to understand it)
any more than that might be faulty software or hardware.
if i were to encounter such problem, i will first remove the sdcard and reboot..if not fixed, then format.. without sdcard inserted, reboot and try again.
if not fixed, then i would send to SC ask them check.
the reason i remove sdcard because the phone might still scanning in the background.
Hi,
Although unfortunate it might just be that the device is defective. Although it's new it can still happen.
But before you go the repair/replace route you should at least consider installing any OS updates if there are any and perform a complete wipe. Then see how it performs before installing any memory cards or other software. Perhaps also install a system info app (afterwards) and make sure the chip, cores and other spec are what they should be as fakes do exist.

Can anyone confirm this? This could very well be the problem because I know for a fact my sd card is very old.
I'm gonna buy a new 64GB sd card soon anyway, so I'll make sure it's fast.
I had some delay when turning the screen on/off, but im pretty sure that something was corrected in one of the multiple firmware updates that i have installed because i don't have it any more.

I also just noticed this as well. It started happening after I installed the 32 gig SD card. There is a slight delay when I press the power or home button. It's not drastic, but slightly noticeable. I had the GS2 and never had that. Is this something that can be fixed by software update? Besides that one nuance, this phone is excellent in every way!
Two things after much research!

This seem to be a hardware/firmware problem. Some of the remedies that have worked for me are: 1.) Turn off auto brightness. 2.) Use a smaller SD card, 16 gigs or less.
Check your battery graph. Is there a constant blue line underneath the graph, if there is, like on mine, I was told it should not be there! I have heard that the only time the blue line should appear is when the screen is on. I am still researching this information but many heads are always better than one. :fingers-crossed:

Interesting you mentioned using a smaller SD card. I just replaced my 8 gig card for a 32 gig card and that's when I noticed the difference. Why does that affect it though? This phone should be able to handle 128 gigs! I really hope this is software related. I never use auto brightness, so I know for a fact it's the SD card that's causing.
Seems to be a pretty good conclusion.

I think certain class 10 high end cards require a certain amount of power to keep them alive? So when the phone goes to sleep for a period of time and the cpu processes down, maybe not enough power, either battery or cpu is being offered to the card. Since more than half of the programs are partly held by the SD card, upon waking the device it takes a some time for it to reassociate all the files? IDK, this is just my best guess as to the why. However, I tried at the suggestion of a few others a program called SD maid available at the Play store and it really seems to have helped so I bought a license to support the author. I highly recommend this app now. It's a very useful tool and for those with root, even more so!
This is certainly weird, if related to sd cards

If anyone is looking for a solution to touch screen issues where scrolls register as taps, go to settings>accessibility>motor & cognition and set Touch Feedback Time to Medium (or Long, your choice).
I factory reset my phone, and it improved a bit... but was bored and cycling through some menus and saw this. Since I changed it I haven't had a single problem.
i will give this a try today. let you know my results. I set mine on medium
On vzw its actually under dexterity and interaction. Will give it a shot and see how it goes thanks!
I'll give it a try too. Will report back. Thanks!
As of now, this seems to fix my Knock to Wake issues I've been having! BEAUTIFUL! You rock!
Did not have many touchscreen issues to report though, but I'll make sure and keep everyone posted if I notice any improvements.
Since turning it on medium in this short time I will say it is better. Knock to wake works much better but like @liamR above I did not have as severe issues as others have reported. Will report back at the end of the day again

factory reset the phone...pretty much your only option to fix. If not you may have to get a replacement
Haha I've exchanged the phone once and factory reset twice. I have tried developer options, screen booster app, etc. The missed taps aren't horrendous, but just bad enough to make me want to pull my hair out when typing an email or text. I have 1 day left to decide if I want to trade it for an s6 edge. Just know I'll miss the removable battery and sd slot. Decisions decisions.
Seemed to have helped! At least so far.

On the Verizon Model, the location is little different, as noted:
Settings>Accessibility>Dexterity and Interaction>Touch feedback time: [Short, Medium, Long]
Just did this, so I have no response to whether there are any changes.
Thanks for the tip! Unfortunately, I haven't noticed a big difference yet, and still has a failed knock code attempt, but I'll need to give it more time to evaluate better.
At least with Verizon, however, this does seem to involve a bit of a trade-off.
When long-pressing the square button on the home screen, for instance, I need to hold it longer before I get the long-press menu. Quite a bit longer, if set to Long vs Medium, coming from Short.
This seems to apply in other apps, as well, for holding the square button. I don't notice a difference in how long I need to long-press a Google Keyboard key to get the alternate character. Long-pressing on text to select it seems to take longer.
This may be obvious to everyone else. But as I'm not sure what this setting really controls, I hadn't expected it.
I've just gone from short to medium and the one issue I had with swipes becoming taps seems to have been resolved... Cheers
Glad this is working for the most part. I've gone 2 days strong with no more scrolls registering as touches.
Factory reset originally worked for me, but will try this as well.
Set mine to medium. Completely fixed it on T-Mobile. Thanks OP!

I don't know.. Impretty sure this only adjusts the time it takes for something to react on a long press.. If you set it to.medium or long it will take longer for long pressed items to react.. Could be wrong, but I think it's placebo..
Hi everyone,
Has anyone noticed a second screen lag when swiping it around while the main screen is off? I only have the quick toggles and music player on my second screen when the main screen is off. But regardless of any direction you swipe it, there is a VERY considerable lag as it navigates to the next item. For those who previously had the LG v10 and are currently using the V20, I'm pretty sure you've noticed that the swipe on the V10 was very swift. I'm asking out of curiosity if anyone else has had this issue. It's possible that due to first batches of V20s available to the public, these units are suffering from it? Idk, I just want to hear your thoughts if possible. Thank you!
I'm experiencing the same thing.
Not mine, I have also the music player active and actually is pretty snappy.
no problems here. I'm not saying there's never been a lag, but generally not a lag on my Tmo version.

When Pandora is playing the 2nd screen is noticeably laggy for sure. It doesn't impact how quick I can scroll around but it doesn't look great. Doesn't really bother me since the 2nd screen is too locked down to be that useful. I just leave it on Pandora controls or date/time
Yeah I'm seeing it too. Most of the time I need to double swipe it then it would jitter to the left when playing music. When not playing anything, it still has basic lag when screen is off.
Im noticing the same lag on mine as well when the main screen is off. Maybe something to do with battery saving.
Try this
Settings/Developer Options/ Tick on "Force GPU Rendering" this should make your beast smoother/snappier!
If root available try L Speed/Entropy/fstrim apps found on Play Store! LG V20 & LG G5 are both snappy beasts and most anticipated of 2016! They are well optimised with Snapdragon 820 and is better than Samsung.
I had this lag until I did a factory reset 3 days ago. I thought maybe it was the LG Home + App update from the lg app update so I didn't update until yesterday. The second screen lag is still gone. Maybe it was during initial setup that something borks. I don't know.

Hey beast,
So you recommend a factory reset? And you SURE it should be a bit faster or the lag would leave atleast?

Thanks. So how soon did you notice the lag and how quickly did you do the reset. Other than the screen lag being gone, did you notice any other changes or flaws?

Honestly I didn't notice the lag until this thread pointed it out. Probably because I've had Samsung devices for so long that lag is just part of life. Since factory resetting it, I've noticed it just runs better in general and not just the second screen lag.

The second screen lag hasn't returned for me after the factory reset. It swipes left or right very quickly.
I do get a random lag from several hours/days uptime on the regular screen though. A restart fixes that lag for me.

My screen was lagging so I reset all the defaults that go with the second screen and it now runs smoothly so long as my battery percentage is above 25%.
Almost 3 weeks and I've experienced no lag at all on second screen, always fast and fluid however it's been set up.
@Olivia1234
I'm curious why you think battery % would make any difference. Have you actually confirmed it does?
And welcome to XDA.
Same here. I am having lag on stock and now running mega rom on my 918. I have to swipe a couple of times and then it will skip the toggles I want ? maybe it's meant to be laggy so toggles aren't pressed by accident? Or so it's not swiping back and forth in your pocket??...either way it's very annoying
Nah mate, you not read my post above yours?
It should behave the same as main screen, be dumb to purposely make it behave like yours is.
Only time I have lag so to speak is when the phone has been sleeping for awhile in my pocket. When I take it out and wait for the 2nd screen to turn on and I try swiping sometimes it'll take a 2nd swipe or so. Almost seems like doze or deep sleep and it's not kicking it up fast enough to respond in time. So far has happened to stock, WETA and MegaRom.
Very annoying how long it takes for the phone to wake up when it's been in pocket. It won't even register the power button press to turn it on or the double tap to wake until the 2nd screen has turned back on

I've experienced that exact same thing. Sometimes I try to unlock it to fast and it just locks again no big deal for me though. I just ran across an issue running MegaRom.
Not sure if it has anything to do with the room though anyway the quick tools on the second screen are gone. If you scroll from the signature to the quick tools menu it's just black if you tap where the icons should be they work it's just like they are invisible or black I'm thinking it might have something to do with Nova launcher but I'm not sure I've played with the settings in Nova for about a day and it hasn't changed.
