Has anyone seen if either 1 of these apps pulls ahead of the other? Really just looking to see which is the best 1 overall between the 2 since I'm picking up my Nexus in a few.
Light flow is newer but doesn't provide any advantage over Tb alert in the free versions, if only it added support for more 3rd party apps like alarms I would understand...but no!

But isn't Lightflow the only APp for Trackball settings which doesn't need root? I use LightFlow on my Stock N1 and is works perfectly.

Lots of apps have Trackball settings for their own notifications. So you can achieve the same sort of thing without a dedicated Trackball settings app and without rooting. ie Chomp/Hancent for SMS, Gmail alert, Skype etc etc.
Yes, but you cannot define the color in most apps. So having one general app to define everything including color and notification interval is very convenient.

I like choosing color as well as sound notification in ONE PLACE. With TB Alert, you can only pick a color. If you test, it shows the light only. With Light Flow, you have ability to hear a sound file as well as see the color picked light when testing the notification. It's just a bit more convemient to me to have this all in one place.
Doc you amaze me
Don't tell me you tried the hundred thousands apps in the market too apart all the roms that were released on N1?
You should write a book ''All you need to know about a nexus one rooted''
I'm rooted but since it is the stock rom (which is odexed) I cannot run trackball alert, thus I went with light flow.
i use SMS Popup. It's free and doesn't require root. It's specifically for messaging notifications but allows you to set your trackball color and you can specify different colors for different contacts.
I've used both, but staying with Light Flow lite on my current rom. I like all the color & app options as well as the Developer's frequent updates/support.

That's funny
I really was a confirmed iPhone type. All I really was using for the last three years. I knew nada about Android. I basically dove in head first when I decided to go for the N1. Saw it at CES here in Las Vegas and immediately went home and ordered it. Haven't looked back since and nothing out there is good enough to replace it....yet. I figure about Christmas time when Quad Core Honeycomb Tegra stuff becomes passe, it will be time to upgrade. Of course it helps having a son who works for NVIDEA looking out for me WRT up and coming stuff
I do scour the market when I get bored, looking for some neat stuff, but hanging out on XDA is worth its weight in Gold too.
I went with lightflow myself for stock nx1

I hope you will get a Optimus 2X it looks like the next devs favorite flagship phone,and its the best specs/price dual core too but I will miss the Tb colors and wake,dunno if the main LG button can do that and with colors

I will put that in the suggestion book. I have no clue what it will be. I just know that after two years, it WILL be time to update. But it has to be in the same class as the N1, and it has to be considered near the top for development too.
I haven't used TrackBall Alert but I have had Light Flow pro before and after I rooted my N1. I love the app; I have it set for every notification that I will have, all different colors. Great customization and well worth the money.
I've started running a stock/rooted OTA GRI40 and since its not deodexed/patched, I've had to give up my beloved Trackball Alert Pro.. anyways, nobody has commented on battery..?

I don't get any major drainage that I know of; with the recent update to Light Flow, you can now control how long it flashes for each notification; thus enabling things to show for 15 min (up till 34hr/never stop) to keep tthe battery topped.

I've not had any negative comments back from light flow on battery and evaluate every new user request to try and ensure I only add features that will have minimal impact.
When I think of new routines to make things even more efficient I'll go back and rewrite sections like the new v1.4.x has.
Yeah I've been running Light Flow for a couple days now and its not even showing up on my battery stats so I'm confident it is light on the battery

Hi,
I have this problem with the game The Amazing Spider-Man, it is a legitimate copy purchased from the Play Store. Every time I am on level 25 to 28 while beating up 4 or more of the lizard guys (this is when it seems to use the most CPU/RAM, even though it seems to have plenty to use and the game is running fast and smooth) it just crashes to the home screen. I have tried formatting and many other things but it just keeps happening when I do big things.
I am running JellyBean 4.2.2 which is rooted and using Trickster MOD to turn off MPDecision while using SetCPU from lowest to highest and lowest to lowest when screen off. I am also running Task Manager Killer on auto every 10 minutes to shut down apps that open and stay open after I open another app.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Any answers, advice, or help would be very much appreciated, thank you!
Sounds like it's a application issue and not the phone.

Thanks, I agree. I just read something that I accidentally clicked on in the game and it lead me to their troubleshooting page saying that they knew of this issue and that they are working constantly on getting the issue fixed.
Besides waiting on them, if anyone knows any other way or has an idea to stop this please do let me know, since of course there is so much you can do with the android system. I've had the game for about a month now and really don't feel like waiting any longer since its like the only game I really enjoy in my free time.
If not, can anyone suggest amy other cool games that let you earn upgrades, has an open-world, etc?
Thanks a lot!
People, if your device lags in hangouts, while scrolling through menus, or just seems slow go get it swapped. Its not all touchwiz by any means. You have a defective device.
I just swapped mine out tonight and its literally night and day comparing the new one and the one I returned. The device is far more responsive and actually performs as I was originally expecting it to. And believe me I tried everything but then I thought to myself why on earth should I have to fix a brand new top of the line device? It was ridiculous. Unnaceptable actually.
I went back to my Verizon corporate store and they had zero issues with me swapping it out and there were no restocking fees or anything like that.
I know this has been covered in other threads but most of those have been filled with random side posts that aren't getting to the real point. So please, do yourself a favor and go get a replacement note 4 before your 14 days are up!

+1 I agreed with you 100%.
Hmm.. weird. I m getting nasty lag in hangouts and a little hank in other places.. I went to try to exchange right now and every store is out.... I did update hangouts on 4 store phones and they all had the same lag when scrolling and sending messages.
I guess I could call customer service but I bet their sold out. Not convinced so many people have a bad device though. . Wonder if it's some software issue..
hangouts lag is not enough to warrant a replacement though. hangouts has lagged since day 1 for me on every device I've owned except a pure aosp rom or device. it's just how hangouts is. it's poorly optimized for each manufacturers skin. Samsung was typically the worst. then LG. then htc. but yeah, hangouts has been laggy since I had the gs4. my tab s is laggy too. it's a combination for me of swiftkey and hangouts. swiftkey lags awfully in hangouts, but in other apps it's ok.

It was all bad. I don't know if I can relate it to any apps specifically as it seemed like something inherently wrong with the device's software that was loaded. Every app opened slowly. Switching tasks was glitchy and every menu scrolled choppy. It was terrible.

To counter that, the hangouts lag significantly decreased upon swapping devices. You are correct that there was always some lag in hangouts but on the old note 4 I would open the app and watch the spinning circle for up to 3 or 4 seconds at some points. It also put my keyboard to almost a hault. And the messages glitched every time one was sent. I get none of that now which is so relieving. So in my case it was warranted bc all my issues were solved.

It was kind of hard to describe. Honestly it just seemed slow. Didn't react to what I was doing hardly ever. There was always a delay that you could see was not touchwiz related. I had a note 3 that was stock at one point and rooted at another and both those devices were beating my brand new note 4. This for me was enough to at least go back and try a second one.

I think when we are talking about lags, we're talking about everything, not just one specific app. The entire phone is lags, like in settings, home screen, launching apps etc...
Mine only lags when I'm downloading apps while doing other things. If that's considered as a defective device then I can still return it, hoping to get a white one.

Hey...mine doesnt have any serious lag, as some are mentioming, but it is choppy as hell when scrolling through FB, Instagram, Messenger, Hangouts, etc etc...and web pages are slow loading, even on wifi...i mean, i hated my G3 due to lag, but in these mentioned instanced, it beat the crap out of this. I hate to think i might have made a mistake trading off of the G3
Those with lag issues have you disabled all the bloatware? This was huge for me as soon as I did the device ran smooth. Switched animations to .5 and now we are rocking with no hiccups except I can't update Shealth without it FC launching.
While I think it makes sense, part of "knows" is doesn't make sense. I don't know how a device would be defective and only lags on hangouts. Hangouts lags on my Galaxy S5, Note 4 and G3. Lags on my Tab S 8.4... it doesn't lag on my Original Moto X. I'd love to get my device swapped specially if it is defective but I don't see how it could be the case.
Also, when I first got my phone, hangouts wasn't lagging. I deleted my conversations and it wasn't lagging up until I had a decent amount of messages again...
Installed an older version of hangouts and doesn't lag. I mean, how can this be the phone and not the message?
I think lag on 1 app could be more related to the app itself and not hardware issue. Maybe hangouts isn't optimized to our screen resolution yet...

I was wondering this as well if it was more an issue on the app side rather than the hardware/OS. I have a couple apps/games which just seem to lag horribly but others are stupid fast.
Is there anyway to narrow down defective or just a laggy app?
I only see small lag in hangouts when i search for someone because it looks up also their hangouts chat that is all every other app works fine.
So im good ?

Hi everyone,
My note 4 seems to start lagging recently after I play games on it for a while. When I close the game, the phone itself lags as well. It's very obvious too when I'm just scrolling through my drawer. Has anyone experienced this? The few times I noticed the lag was also when my battery was low, <25% and I thought it may have been power saving mode. However I checked and power saving mode was off. Also when I use the facebook app any anytime, it has a scroll lag. I noticed that too when I'm browsing on certain sites (ie; XDA).
I tried factory reset and that did not fix the issue and I have the phone too long to exchange/refund
Dont worry bro
Use nova launcher for best experience

I am having the same problem.intalled Nova turned off s voice. UGH PLEASE HELP
I never experienced any lag using stock launcher!, i want to stay my phone the way i first bought it.
if i change my launcher it feels like im not using note 4 anymore!
I'm already using nova. I tired stock browser but sites like XDA still lags when I scroll. Also when I game for a while, the game will start to lag. When I exit to home screen the phone itself lags too! I have to clear the ram for the phone to go back to normal. The weird thing is, the ram was only 2.22gb/2.72gb, it's not even close to max!
Stop clearing your ram now
Try uninstall some background app like facebook and see the effect
Hm interesting, after I last cleared my ram. I've been gaming for 2hrs straight and 0 lag... I've swapped back and forth from game to homescreen to whatsapp etc and no lag at all... Only thing different is I'm charging my phone at the same time. Think charging has something to do with it?

Just got myself an exynos note 4. Very nice phone but aside from a little touchwiz stutter, games such as real racing 3 and clash of clans stutter. My nexus 4 ran them fine. Did a quick antutu benchmark to see whats up and i got 49000 on antutu without flight mode on. What do you think? Benchmarks say my phone should handle them with ease but thats not the case. Anyone with a solution? I already disabled many samsung and google apps. Lag is evident only in games.

You're not using Power Saver, are you?
My note's benchmark seemed normal and I play Clash of Clans as well and it seems okay. The game I play most often is Summoners War and that is what's causing the lag. Come to think of it, I think I had an issue with the lag on my Nexus 5 as well but I might have chalked it up to the phone being old so when this happen on my brand new note 4, it raised a red flag. But still, I'm still confused why the game would lag my phone even thought it there's plenty of memory available.

I just tried clash of clans on my brothers s5. Turns out the stuttering is even worse. Im testing this by zooming in on the base and scrolling rapidly back and forth on a canon for example. I will test this on my nexus 4.i too thought coming to a phone as powerful as the note 4 i shouldnt see any stutters but if its happening on an s5 then i guess its not a hardware issue on my phone but rather an android thing? Tested this also on my iphone 6 with no stutters at all.

I was having the same problem, so believe it or not, the way I stopped it was going into application manager and disabling S Health. I don't know how or why, but this stopped all the lag. After installing Ktoonez kernel, I thought maybe I could turn it back on, but when I did, I started getting the same lag again. I hope this helps because I know it is frustrating

I second Keith's recommendation. My 2-day-old, rooted Note 4 was lagging and was particularly noticeable when scrolling through some web pages or content in Flipboard. But it lagged in other places as well. Also stuttered or paused when playing podcasts. I tried installing Nova Launcher, I tried removing Wanam Xposed, and some other things but it finally went away when I started to disable various Samsung bloatware. The success occurred after I disabled SHealth and some other things (I just happened to do a few all at the same time). I suspect SHealth was the culprit because it was probably running in the background all the time, trying to track my step count.
I ended up keeping Nova Launcher since I gives me some useful customizations, and I love Wanam + Xposed, partly because it lets me get rid of Samsung's Search menu item that always used to appear in my notifications shade.
It's been over a week, now, and no more lag / stutter. Absolutely loving the phone, now.
I haven't gone back to re-enable some of the bloatware in order to confirm that SHealth was the culprit because, quite frankly, I have no interest in the stuff I disabled, anyway.
I have also disabled S health but I never had a problem with Clash of Clans when even I had S health Enabled.. whereas the other game I play (Summoners War) it always start to lag after an hr+ of gaming.
I already disabled s health through the app drawer but that does not solve the problem. Coc will run fine for a few mins and then start to stutter like its not optimized. To test for hardware issues i installed dead trigger 2 and injustice gods among us and they absolutely fly. The problem seems to be with coc. I am using an exynos note 4 on stock rom stock kernel. Any thoughts?

return your phone
when your phone starts to stutter after some time playing games, it might be thermal throttling. depending on the game you can notice it more or less.
So yesterday the Good Lock app randomly auto pushed to my phone from the Galaxy app store.
Has anyone else had this happen?
It also replaced the system ui. I was able to open the app and uninstall it, but I get a notification about twice a day saying I have an app to update. Every time the notification is for Good Lock.
Is Samsung forcing it on its users now?
Also is anyone using it ? Does it still negatively effect the battery? Does it remove the theme sort from the phone as well?
Thanks!
Happened to me too. I also uninstalled it, couldn't achieve a look that I like. You can disable the notification from the Galaxy Apps settings menu

I like it, it's cool imo. The multitask screen looks better.
Hmmm...
At first, I was angry it auto updated/Installed. It.changed everything I was used to. I HATED it!
Then I played around with it a bit, and I can now see some useful features in it. Mostly the lockscreen widgets and the Routines. I'm not a fan of the notification shortcuts though.
Im going to give it a few days to sink in. If I don't miss the old layouts, then I'll keep it.
Just REALLY wish theyd update the autocorrect though. I had to retype many words in this message!

Still seems strange to just push it on users have not heard them doing that on any other devices so far. Makes me wonder if it will be the stock setup on Android 7.1 for Samsung.

I think I saw on Sammobile that the Nougat ROM being tested for the S7 has it. I'll see if I can find it.
EDIT:

I've used good lock mostly on my s6 and a bit while I used the s7edge as a loaner. I actually think I prefer the grace ux on the note to good lock these days but good lock has a lot of features and is always adding user requested features.

Yeah I tried good lock and it was okay but I couldn't stand the hideous colors in notifications, and it just seemed way too busy. I only used it because I missed KitKat style lock screen music album art, but I found out Samsung music still has an acceptable form of it and I'm satisfied with it.

You can change the colors.

It's not easily noticeable though. There isnt a very noticeable "colors" section.
I think that's confusing people.

Took me awhile to figure out how to change colors, buried in the routines menu. And because I use a them already, was even more fun trying to get them to match. I did try it for a few days, but went back to the regular lock screens. Also didn't seem to work real well with AoD.

been using on my 2 phones for months; i prefer the stock Android UI look as well as the ability to "keep" some of my notifications so i can follow up later. the latest version allows you to further customize the colors (not just dragging the polygons from left to right or vice-versa). takes (me a) little effort to get it like i want it, but i can then backup and restore when necessary. --- i'm a keep it simple/basic user so the less stuff, the better (for me).
also, @nuclearrage, what issues were you having with AoD? GoodLock and AoD are working fine on my devices.
