Hi guys, just bought S4 I9500 5 days ago and yesterday i just noticed 1-2 second delay / lag when waking up sceen with power / home button
I know this has ben issue since S1 because i have Galaxy Gio and Galaxy Ace. Both have this issue after updating in GB. no wake up lag in Froyo. and i know this also happen in lot of Samsung Phone (S2, S3, Epic, Note 1,2). But the difference is those phone already do that from the start, but in my first 3 day i think don't have the issue (or i don't know, maybe i just too amazed by Full HD 441ppi screen and not noticed it until yesterday)
what i want to ask is that do u have this issue on ur S4 too?
because when i googled "Galaxy S4 wake up lag" the result is direct me to S2,S3 forum /article, even Epic 4G. but nothing about S4. I just afraid that this problem is specific to my device / i have a fault device
I already tried:
-. turning off all S-Voice setting and even disabled the S- voice
-. remove SD Card (because some people on S2 thread say that the device need time to mount SD card everytime screen on)
-. wipe dalvik from recovery
none of them works
i know the problem is caused by SOC that go to deep sleep to save battery because:
-. if i turn off and instantly turn on again, the lag didn't happen (because the processor still wake. ussualy take 3 second to go to deep sleep)
-. playing music / downloading someting /do anything that run in background. the lag didn't happen too (because processor awake to do all the task)
-. use app like wakelock and softlocker that make processor always run even screen is off. but this drain battery very fast because the processor is forced to awkae 24/7
please tell me do ur S4 have this issue? because 2 point below make me afraid
1. i feel i didn't have the problem for the first 3 days (but it can be that i just did not notice it yet)
2. i find bunch google result about this problem on another Samsung device, but none mention S4
thx b4
no one have this problem?

As you mentioned starting Android GB, the deep sleep was introduced, hence the lag when waking up the device, this was put there to save battery.

Have you tried opening S-Voice, hitting the menu button and turning off the 'activate S Voice with double tap of home button' option?

AFAIK, that's just an issue with the wakeup time of the exynos processor. I had this exact issue on my s3 ( with the exynos processor) and it bugged the life outta me. Since buying the snapdragon 600 version of the s4 the lag is nonexistent.
So it's not exactly a problem. But is certainly annoying.

yes, i heard about that too. from the start i also want to buy i9505 but my country only get i9500
what surprise me is that few days ago i have a family meeting and when i played with my cousin's S3 (exynos, stock 4.1.2, no root) there is no wake up delay. the screen wake up instantly. even my finger is still on power button when the screen wake up.
i know a lot of people have this issue in 4.0.4 S3. so this means that the wke up delay can be fixed by firmware update? (like 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 in S3). i dont know about my cousin's S3 pre-4.1.2 because she just bought it recently this year and already have 4.1.2 out of the box
anyway thx for the replies

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.

Something is wrong it shouldn't be that slow, comment above is useless as it's not an animation.
Flash the latest stock firmware - if that doesn't help I'm clueless to what could cause this.
Its the sd card...I used a class 2 and I had lags..changed to a new class 10 and everything was instantaneous

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.

Hello all
I have Samsung Galaxy Young running stock Android 2.3. If I leave wifi on, the battery ends really quickly.
I want to disable WiFi and Internet on screen off in order to save the battery - similar to Sony STAMINA mode available on Xperia. Anybody can help plz?
You might want to try BX Power - search for "BX Power" on Google Play... It does exactly what you want + the periodic updates

Battery problem with Samsung Galaxy
Hello Mr. sucher39,
that*s a big problem. I have sometimes the same situation.
And I would like to receive local tv-sation, channels from my home country.
I have heard from a friend. He has a interesting solution.
I will inform you as soon as possible.
Battery Problem
Hallo Mr.Papayaklaus thank You for your replyhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Battery problem with Samsung Galaxy
Dear Mr. Sucher,
meanwhile I have called my friend. He is a lot of expertise around samsung.
He gave me a good recommendation concerned apps and WebTV.
Best regards
papayaklaus
So it's been around a year since note 4 was released, and I wanted to make a thread about my and Yours experiences with Note 4.
Let's start with why I have chosen Note 4.
Specs
2K display with 500PPI+
Android and redesigned TouchWiz
Camera
Root and V4A(Audiophile here!)
Phablet, I like devices that are 6 inches and more, cause I got huge hands.
Old "Good" Note family.
And here couple of reasons why I hate it
MicroUSB stopped working and I can't no longer charge my device.
Had to buy new battery because first one become swollen and I got like 20 minutes battery life.
Phone turns off itself like 10 times daily
Phone gets super hot when charging it, even with the new battery.
Sometimes my calling function stops working and I can't call anyone nor anyone can call me until I reboot my phone.
Same thing happened to me with the Note 3 , and my friend and my dad that use Note 2 have also lots of battery and random reboots problems.
I really do love this phone, but it hurts me that Samsung makes phones that are so faulty. We pay a lot of money for our phones and we want them to work at least for 2 years, not 6 months!
For the next 5 years I won't buy any Samsung phone, maybe HTC, LG, Nexus, Sony Xperia, IPhone but definitely not a Samsung phone.
What are Your problems with Samsung phones?
- GPS doesn't work properly
- the finger print scanner is a joke
- the Lollipop updates were horrible (no mute toggle anymore, apps for pulling down the notification bar stopped working, apps can't turn mobile data on/off anymore, notification & settings layout was changed to white, battery life got worse, notifications take like 5 seconds to appear in the notification center, recent app button lag, camera-gallery lag, air command shortcut app doesn't work without root anymore, the Samsung's one hand operation tools are not really thought through)
- still no theme store added
- apps get randomly killed by this smart manager thing, which makes the phone totally unreliable
Overall a good phone, but the software (Samsung & Google) leaves a lot to be desired I'd say.
15 minutes ago I lost my Note 4 forever. It just turned off itself and I can't get it to boot nor charge the battery. Thank You Samsung. Now I can't even sell it! No download mode, no recovery mode, it's just dead. I have no luck with Samsung devices. Two of my Samsung Smart TV's broke too. I don't know what to do.
had android 7
i did a factory reset to see if it would fix some issues. it didnt
so said after 2.5 years of owning phone maybe ill update to new android version. maybe that will alleviate some stresses i have from this poop phone.
wow what garbage went to android v8. nonstop bugs.
garbage new "enhancements". makes my blood boil
this is why i never update things unless its absolutely broken and no choice. i dont believe in updating and only believe in clean installs.
power button stops working randomly. i cant turn off the phone. only can take the battery out.
boots into safe mode and i need to reboot again. switches my keyboard from ms swipe back to the garbage oem one horrible keyboard that oem one
keeps harassing me to update even though ive tried to stop notifications reminding me. maybe im doing something wrong. i went into developer mode and have automatic updates turned off. but after v8 it doesnt work
everything lags like crazy. horribly slow
when it gets to 22% battery it shuts off. im using oem batteries only. i had aftermarket when it was new but they would shut off randomly so got rid of rhem. i have 4 oem. 2 newish
still same issue where i have no signal(no internet /data) at times in vertical mode and turn it horizontally signal bars increase and phone works again
gui is absolute crap. new colored buttons in settings like its a clown show. i absolute have no resprct for designers who feel they need to hide everything together to make it "seem" like its uncluttered. like rhe garbage new facebook gui. hiding everything with tons of clixks to get to it. tons of bugs there as well
no photo editing app is there
no 2nd screen is on when i have my phone off so if i want to see the clock i have to trun it on ot double tap. double tap doesn't work on first try. only 2nd time.
no editing bittons in 2nd screen
absolute garbage os. now to factory reset again and never to update again
i hope lg's phone section goes rhe way of bb/htc/ms/nokia. they just create garbage phones. and will never forgive for the bootloop issues in my g4 and hence why their markwt share is down the shets. feckem. let me rot.
Thw phone is so unstable i did a factory reset again thinking it would go back to v7 on my phone but that garbage v8 is burned into my rom on thw phone such a huge mistake ive not made in a long time
How do i get back v7 android? Help me out please
Do i need a seperate pc? Internet? What files please? This android 8 is absolute garbage
Completely ruined my familiar experience with the phone too much un your face with tons of nonsense popping up nonstop
Any guidance appreciated

The battery issue, i know for me at least was an issue with the OEM batteries. Even brand new ones will shut off at decent a % left, The best i can say for that is go for an aftermarket battery. (if you really want to), I have a power button issue as well, Try putting a small piece of paper in the back of your phone, right above the SD card slot, (double folded usually works for me) That might solve your issue as well.
Your phone booting into recovery/safe mode etc sounds like a bad system install to me. Factory resetting unfortunately won't fix that. If your phone is rooted you can just reinstall your system via recovery. If not, if you have a computer handy, you can download a tool from LG called "LG Bridge". Plug in your phone via usb and click recovery to reinstall your system.(it will wipe everything. if you have an SD card take it out for safety)
The lag could be due to overheating, mine lagged at first on android 8 but quit. The lag could also be due to the bad install of the system as well.
Hopefully you could find some help. This is a great phone in my opinion. Working great for me!
Download the nougat KDZ from here and flash back. I tried oreo as well and was not too happy. Plus it's missing the patched camera libs.
broke the phone. punched it and snapped it in half. great relief. I should poop on it and send it back to lg
soon will be getting librem 5 and dsiconnect from google. feck all their tracking. no drive no gmail no maps/waze. nothing to do with them anymore. people dont realize how much information they readily give out. cc fingerprints private emails. all contacts/family. whatsapp and fb too. no fb. whatsapp is going as well.
