[Q] Disable all animations but keep the screen-off effect? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says, is it possible to disable the animations but keep the CRT screen - off effect? I prefer to not have animations throughout the system and apps as I love the feel and speed of it, but by turning all these off I miss out on the much loved screen off animation.
Is there anyway to achieve this? I encountered the same situation on both TW and CM. I'm currently on TW.

Use Wanam or gravity box or another xposed module to turn CTR effect on?

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately it is not that simple as it seems that turning off animations from the developer settings (transition = "0" etc) also then applies to the screen off effect. I'm wondering if it is somehow possible to isolate the disabling of the animations to allow for the screen off to be unaffected...

Oh you know what. ...I just managed to solve it!
Disabling all animations through developer options indeed stops the screen off animation. Leaving Window and Transition Animations Scale set to 0 means that no animations appear when loading apps for example, however by keeping Animator Duration Scale at 1 it keeps the CRT screen off animation. Job done!
Shame I had to create a thread to solve this so quickly but least if anyone else wants the speedy interface of having no system animations but wants to keep the CRT, they'll know how!

You would need to have root and install Xposed framework. Then use Wanam to enable it

I think gravity box is better than other.

Screen off crt animation

Is there anyway to remove the crt screen off animation but keep the window and transition animations?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
ya, just use stock firmware =)
you can not togle this setting in options
transition animations (those are windows also) are not connected with animations anyhow aside of the fact that if you disable animations the crt will not work also
If you're using cyanogenmod, go to the cyanogenmod settings and in display you can disable it.

Now that I have root access, what can I do to make this phone faster?

As we all know on paper this phone is a beast but in real life not so much. Now that I had this phone for a week I can definitely say that my Galaxy S3 running AOKP 4.3 ROM was faster than this phone (no joke).
I mean the only thing that really bothers me a lot with this phone (and I don’t know if its touchwiz related) is lock screen lag. Sometimes when I’m locking or unlocking the phone it takes a good second or two to “wake up” or “go to sleep”
Do any of you guys notice the same problem? If so is the any way to fix this now that we have root access?
I’m also looking for any other tips and tricks to make this phone a little faster
Thanks in advance
Nova or Apex Launcher, and ditch the window animations.

Zero animations will help a little but it won't work miracles. You are used to an aosp-style rom, and Touchwiz simply is not that. Once we get Safestrap, devs will get debloated TW roms for this beast. Until then, you just have to deal with TW lag & bloat

Screenlag problem
Try

Doesn't use much battery.
Use widget for quick on-off and set to partial.

Try to freeze/remove the "S Voice" application that maps itself to ---> double tap Home key.
By removing it, it removes the double tap mapping which greatly helped with home button wake lag on my Note 2
Next most common thing to help you is to use an app such as Android Tuner to edit the stock kernel CPU clocks. In deep sleep(=screen off), you can raise the mhz of the CPU so it takes less time to wake up. Not sure if you can do this on stock kernel/locked bootloader just yet and this will eat more battery in general if your phone is in deep sleep often

Remove Smart stay icon in notification bar?

Hi as title says, is there a way to remove the slight faded eye looking icon in the notification bar when smart stay features are on?
I always leave the feature on so the icon sitting on my notification bar is unnecessary. I am rooted and am amusing I need to delete a system file (maybe?) so if anyone knows please tell me
Thanks!

I fixed that on mine by using the corresponding option from Wanam xposed.
What do you mean? Can you tell me the solution?

Root. Install latest xposed framework. Install Wanam exposed module. Toggle the corresponding setting there.
use 2 finger to pull down from top and you shall see the option to turn it off.

That is not the same thing, the toggle will disable smart-stay, most people would want smart-stay to still work but not to show the icon.

I don't understand the process. It sounds quite complicated so I think I'll just live with the icon showing on my notification bar.

I`am not xperiencing lags myself and i have about 120 apps installed and running TW launcher, but disabeling the lockscreen animation will make the S5 snappier imo.

if you are putting finger print lock or pattern or password it won't appear, but if you choose swipe it will appear down in lockscreen options
download the phone INFO app and check if you have a genuine S5 first.

There is no lag at all if you debloat all of the superfluous Samsung apps.
Or even easier, install a custom ROM like Phoenix or XtreStoLite and turn off the page animations.
.
The latest firmware update currently being rolled out has already solved this. My device is running smoothly with no problem at all

Rolling the update to all countries / carriers normally takes time. But if you're unlocked, you can download latest UK stock rom & install it. It already includes the latest update

I was wondering the same thing. I'm tired of the black background in the settings menu and was wondering if there was some way to chance it to white. That would be nice.

On wanam xposed you can only modify the notification panel. If you find a module that allows to modify the settings menu let us know.
