Some of my homescreen slides flickers a lot when I use the fast sliding methoc. By that I mean the method when you press the little house icon and the dots at the bottom of the screen. Anyone else experiencing this?

It's just the animations, you can enable developer options and scroll down to
Window Animation Scale
Transition Animation Scale
Animator Duration Scale
And change the values from 1x to either 0.75x or .5x or less or even off. It should solve it for you.
Thanks, but are you positive you understood what I meant? The widgets on the slide I scroll to or from, blinks/flickers. This is default behaviour, therefore I find it strange and need to ask. Will try your method though.
Yeah it'll just be the Animation on the device, the fast method is literally too fast for it and it shutters. I wouldn't worry to much.

Does it bother anyone else that whenever you switch back to the home screen, the clocks reset the hands and do the little animations to spin to the correct location? The flip clock does it like it used to in TF3D too, the numbers flip over until they catch up. It seems such a waste of time and cpu cycles. I've tried the default Android clock and it is much calmer, it is always at the correct time regardless of whether you switch back or not. The down side is it isn't as attractive and doesn't take you to the clock app when you press on it.
Anyone else annoyed by this?
Indeed I find it a little annoying...not tried the different clock....
one question, are you able to change the type of clock on your profile?
I seem to be only be able to select different front clocks under different profiles (Scenes) so you are stuck with that clock for that scene?

You can just remove it, then add an HTC Widget and select 1 of 12 clocks (think its 12)

Genuie!!!!! Thanks dude!!!
I also found that when I changed my clock to the small one (so it still fits in the same space on the home screen), my Hero became much more responsive. It still adjusts the time with an animation every time I go to the home screen, but it seems way better. Others have suggested removing the People widget, but for me it was just a change of the clock.
Bugs the hell out of me, so much so I had to remove it.
Hope the new update fixes this problem.

I like seeing the clock flip over! I'm sure it does it by design too, it's not a fault/bug.

It is a fault, the clock widgets can't store the time. So everytime you enter the idle screen it updates the clock.

I don't believe it's a fault either, judging by the way it is animated. It is just designed not to update whilst not visible.

Most if not all of the HTC clock widgets do the animation.
However, on the leaked video of the new speedier ROM, I notice the clock never updates like that, even though it is the big one with weather combined. It just changes immediately, so maybe that is part of the speed up...
i use the smallest one, digital, but not a flip. number 5 i think it is.
yes, if you look closely you can see it update when you go back to the homescreen, but it is so fast, most of the time i don't notice it, and i'm certainly not gonna sit there trying to see it happen, cos it's really not that important to me...
Maybe they added a setting to enable / disable clock animation ?
Hope so as I quite like it.
On the CDMA Hero there seems to be a bug... IN the Clock app, home location and current location show the correct time but most HTC clock widgets insist on displaying the GMT time. What's up with this?
Hello,
The auto-rotate feature rocks, but in my G1 is too slow because the animations (the blurry one or the window shrinks and tilt animation)
Do you know any way to disable the animations to have an auto-rotate faster?
Thank you very much
Open The Spare Parts app, scroll down to General and uncheck "Fancy rotation animation"

Those disables the fancy animation (shrink and tilt), but not the blurry one.
I want (if possible) this behaviour:

Thanks,
Sorry, thought you just meant the tilt animation. That hack doesn't work on 1.5 :-/
No animation sounds like a good idea to make the orientation switch faster.
Phone seems snappier just by disabling fancy rotation, fancy input, and windows animations / transitions.
Can't wait to see if someone comes up with an answer for this.
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.

My problem is with kitkat lockscreen, maybe you noticed or not but kitkat slide to unlock effect introducing some lag to notification bar. when you unlock your screen, try to lower down notification bar it lags like hell. If you wait for the slide animation is finished lag disappears, also if you touch that unlock ring notification bar lags again. I tried several roms based on 4.4 but same lag is still there, only thing to avoid is using 4.3 roms, which is a downgrade. So I want to ask is there a way to extract 4.3 or some other slide to unlock screen and flash it to 4.4 stock rooted phone?(using lock screen apps are not good enough and they do not look good)
thanks in advance.
I don't think it's a lag. I think it was made that way on purpose. By the way, I do not experience lag but when I touch the ring, I can't pull the status bar. The same when I lower or touch the status bar, I can't slide the lockring. It just won't work simultaneously. So, my opinion is that it was purposely made to behave like that. It's either you slide to unlock then pull your notification or pull your notification and it will go straight into that particular app. I always do the latter.

I didn't mean simultaneously when you just touch (or tap) the ring or just after screen is powered, some animation starts(ring expands or something like that) so that animation makes notification bar stutter or lag, you can try it by just after you push power button to turn on the screen and then try to lower notification bar you can see bar stutters(after animation stops, it works normal).

I see yeah, you're right. It stutters a bit. Try using art runtime then, maybe it helps reduce it (read it somewhere before but didn't try it).

İm using xposed so art is not really option but i tried it and unfortunately no it do not effect this bug much, only way i see is to change slide option to something else or changing lockscreen itself(if it is possible of course) but thanks anyway.
Here's a little tip to help speed up your Moto G. First go to Settings-About Phone and tap Build Number 7 times. It will then say "you are now a developer". Go back to settings and you will see a new category called "Developer Options". Open that and scroll down to Window animation scale. Open it and turn off animations. Go back and do the same thing in Transition animation scale, and Animator duration scale.
You will now notice that apps and other things open faster, making the Moto G even more awesome.

Lol isnt really a speed up...but you just turn off animations.

In effect, it does speed up the launching of apps because animations take time. Not much, granted, but still faster nonetheless. I definitely notice a split second faster launching of things. If you don't like it, don't use it.

If we turn off those animations, the dialer doesn't open when we press the Keypad icon... It opens only after we press back and open it again... So keep the animations to 0.5x and everything will be fine...

Even better, change all the animations to 0.25, I think it's the best setting, instant animation...!
But that setting is not in stock rom.
YEah this doesn't technically make the phone actually faster, but it does zeem to be a bit zippier if putting it down to .25 or .5.

Of course this will break the phone dialer keypad from opening correctly (in 4.4.3/4.4.4).
To set all settings at 1.5 makes ui more effective as it made for thats called pure android .....
Try that also for whole day you will enjoy..
