[Q] [SM-N910F] Lollipop TouchWiz and fingerprint scanner. - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
So I flashed TW Lollipop on my note 4 and there's massive delay with the fingerprint scanner while listening to music [comparing to KK].
Almost two seconds to open the phone, in KK it worked immediately.
Any solution?
Thanks.

Camera Vibration

so about 2 months ago my note 3 started vibrating when using the camera. I first noticed it in snapchat, the camera wouldn't focus and I noticed the phone is vibrating. Basically every time an app uses the camera and it fails to focus the phone would start vibrating for a really long period of time, which then makes pics distort and the camera fails to focus again which extends the vibration. I thought it's a touchwiz rom error (I was using xnote when it happened for first time (4.4 btw, don't remember which version of x-note it was) but then I tried out some AOSP roms and the stock s5 port and then I came back to xnote v16 and it kept doing this vibration thing. Any ideas what causes it/how to fix it?
I have no idea. Mine started doing this just now. But I noticed it's not just in the camera app, it's anytime the phone is in landscape no matter what app is running.
same issue on N9005
I can't remember when it started but it's rendered the camera basically useless. Sometimes it finds focus and stops the vibration... what I found helps somewhat is shaking the phone rather violently, it stops vibration and then works as normal, untill I close the Camera app and go back into it, then same story. I can't think that this is a hardware issue as it is able to focus and take pictures just fine. This is a major annoyance but I don't think it's unsolveable. I'm no developer but may it be at all possible yo fix this with an xposed module or tweak that completely disables the vibration motor in the phone while in the camera app? Is this a possibility or is the problem deeper than that. I've tried loads of ROMs and it's present on all of them, the leaked Lollipop firmware as well. It's impossible to go back to Jelly Bean AFAIK but before I updated to Kit Kat I didn't have this issue.
I have this problem too
Vibrate when im in camera...not always somtimes
5.1.1
I guess this was never solved?

[Q] missing the s4 lights effect lock screen on s5......

hi
just gone from an S4 to an S5 and notice sammy has removed the cool lights effect unlock screen that was on the S4.
It was the one where you hover your finger over the screen and the light appears.
Any one know of a mod so i can have this on my S5?
Have searched the net but to no avail.
I know its no big deal, but to me it just feels like a downgrade.
same here . i used to have it on my s4 after recent update its gone
Any input on this? i want to know how to enable this -.-
You can flash Xtrestolite Kitkat (Latest Kitkat)and flash Note 4 Transformation Pack for Kitkat to get lens flare lock back.

Screen keep waking up with Touchwiz Rom

Hi All,
There is some hardware issue with my S4 that it will wake itself up randomly every few seconds. It has this issue with every touchwiz rom I put on, Kitkat or Lollipop (fresh install so that I know it's not caused by some apps installed later). I'm sure I have tried everything like disabling air gesture, every senor related function that I'm aware of.
I used wakelock trying to track which apps triggered the wake with no luck.
I also tried gravity screen, no luck.
The only fix so far is using a cm rom. I suppose it's because cm rom ignores some sensor info compared to touchwiz. I can stay with cm but I really like the stock camera.
Can anyone cast some light on how to fix this screen wake up issue on touchwiz?
Update: Finally got this fixed. The fix is very specific to this phone. As I mentioned this phone has some issue including home key not working and the random screen wake. After disable home key mapping in Generic.kl and gpio-keys.kl by adding # in front of key 172 Home, screen wont wake up by itself again.

Fingerprint sensor issue

So I was watching some YouTube and I noticed one strange thing. When I swipe or touch my fingerprint sensor, video playback lags and is almost unplayable. I have disabled all gestures in settings for fingerprint sensor. Anybody got the same issue? I am using stock April without any modifications.
