My biggest issue with this phone is that every now and then my phone becomes very unresponsive in relation to the user input, up to a point where trying to type becomes frustrating. Actually, you can only notice this behavior while typing. Only rebooting or putting the CPU's governor into performance mode seems to help.
It happened to me for almost half a year on PixelExperience rom + HEX Kernel. Motivated by the thread's responses, I decided to switch to Havoc and even left its default Kernel, just to try a completely different software.
To my surprise, the behavior is exactly the same, every now and then that lag appears and makes typing in the keyboard very hard.
Any ideas? Is this happening to any of you? Is there a way to automatically change the governor when the keyboard is launched?
This happens to me too.. just typing on the keyboard, I didn't mind it as it maybe an app issue (referring to Messenger) but when I am playing this game (Mobile Legends) were most of the time it won't respond to when tapping the skills buttons.
That made me thinking if it is an issue with the phone. I'm just hoping its just an app problem. Mine is stock and just recently put in the Poco launcher.
I didn't realize it could also impact gaming,as I my self don't play. I was about to ask if you could try setting your cpu governor to performance and check the response but I see that you are in stock rom.
I will probably try another rom soon, and the latest hex kernel. However, having installed the latest havoc after more than have year different, and seeing the same issue, I suspect the problem is way bigger.
My phone has exactly the same problem. It is intermittent and really frustrating ....
That's the mistake. Is it worth sending to a manufacturer's service? :-S
I have the same problem, right now I'm on stock rom but also had this problem in miui (converted to 6x), I think is a hardware problem.
I would like to know if everyone is having this problem or not. I feel like it should be a hardware problem but at the same time the fact that it is intermittent could be an indication that there something behind it that we don't know, and maybe could be fixed by software.
I think hat putting it on performance doesn't fix it completely when it happens.
Yes I have the same problem, i thought it could be fixed by changing rom but seems like it wont be fixed by doing that.

Interesting, reading on internet, it seems like it is an issue with the google keyboard and swipe to text feature, i have read that disabling it fixes the issue, will try to do so and report if something happens.

I don't use the google keyboard ever. I use swift key. Will try that anyway. But I see the lag also in the apps and launcher as well.
Well, issue is fixed, it was actually the gesture typing that was causing the issue.
Anyways, try disabling similar functionality on swift keyboard, or try using a lighter keyboard.
I recommend Google keyboard.

I don't think it is related to google keyboard as it also happens while playing games when keyboard is not shown, please continue to test with swipe typing disable and report back
I have same problem with Swiftkey keyboard so it is not google keyboard related, in games like trials frontier and asphalt 9 too
I am back, you are right, it is giving me problems, is not always, but it is there.
Hmm.
I would debug it if I knew how to recreate it, but unfortunately it is really hard to replicate because it happens randomly

Reading around I found that playing with the gpu settings in developer options might solve the issue.
Will do and report if anything changes.

I dont have the A2 but was experiencing the same issue on my Mi8. I resolved the issue ( the exact same issue that you guys are having ) by changing the kernel default setting to Schedutil, I had it set to to conservative.
This may or may not help you, but it's definitely worth checking. Also, this issue happened a couple of months ago on the Miui EU Developer rom, so it could be a bug with the OS as well.
Thanks for the advice but I'm fully stock so I can't change kernel governor
I have this issue too. Keyboard laggs when typing. Touchscreen not working. I rebooted many times but the problem still persists. Then i installed Touchscreen Repair from Playstore. It seems to fix the problem. I can't confirm how good the app is cause i've just install it 2hrs ago. You guys should give it a try. The name of the app is Touchscreen Repair. All the best!

sorry for ressurect an old topic, but i did some research and found some interesting stuff:
Aparently this is a problem that occurs commonly on white screen Xiaomi phones (mine is gold) because they use different hardware for the black and white versions.
After i read this some people posted that comparing their other Xiaomi phones like Redmi notes this problem also occurs and just on the white phones.
I still doesn't have a solution, it might be a shot to replace the screen for a black one but i couldn't find anybody who did this to know if it's going to work

Yes, that app seems to fix the problem for me. Thanks!
Well just came here to update on the touch issue i had on almost every ROM (stock included)
Whenever the touch issue happens, nowadays i just hit the touchscreen hard using a single fingertip (like a hammer) and it starts working really, really good! I mean so good that even restarting the phone didn't fix it to this level haha ?
Earlier i just locked-unlocked the screen but this didn't always work. Restarting worked but its not really feasible always.
This solution is soo damn good in my phone right now that I can use this phone for a year from now if my screen doesn't break from the hammering ? earlier was thinking to exchange it with realme x2 pro real soon.

Hi everyone
A issue I have noticed on mine and brothers phone
Basically, after a phone call, the touch bottoms (menu and back buttons) dont work sometimes, they just freeze and dont work.
It doesnt happen all the time, maybe 1 or 2 times a day. It requires a restart of the phone by taking the battery out
Just wandering if anyone has experienced this problem on there note and whether it is a software or hardware problem. Buttons work fine at all other times, but sometimes after a call they just freeze.
Thanks

Same problem here! I don't need to take out battery, just reboot device
Any idea? Root? What ROM?
This thing has too many troubles for users. Just got mine but haven't used it yet. Samsung hasn't made a good phone so far. Problems left to right. Note could be my last Samsung phone.
i have noticed the same thing too, but i am running Sheep Rom, it seems intermittent. what rom are you running?

I used to have issues with my prior android phone if I got dirt or whatever over the proximity sensor.
Android phones disable the touchscreen/buttons during a phone call so your cheek doesn't hang up the phone.
If your phone is dirty, however, it gets confused, and keeps things disabled after the call.
This happened to me fairly often when I had a case/screen collector that tended to collect pocket lint.

You can't be bleeding edge without some bleeding.
The GNote ain't perfect and it's a bit rough on the edges, but there's no way I would trade it for any other phone.

This. You shouldn't go Samsung or Android if you don't want to do some finetuning. If you want an out of the box solution take buy an iPhone. Then you can wait for Apple to release updates instead of being able to fix it yourself the same day.
i agree, its not even a hardware problem, its a software problem. i can accept small glitches as long as i can fix them, unfortunately you cant fix a hardware malfunction with software, unless of course the patch your applying is going directly over the antenna like a certain iGadget4

Hi
Even i am facing the same issue n need to know what is the sol. If it is a hardware issue should i get my phone replaced. I bought it only yesterday.
For me too it happens occassionally and requires restart of the phone.
Please help someone.
Just a guess - if all users r not facing it is it a hardware issue
I had this happen once after about 4weeks of using sgn. I don't know if i had made a call prior or what, just before it happened. A reboot made the problem go away for an hour or so. It came back.
I had installed an app a few hours earlier (dell store mobile app). I removed it - not really expecting to fix it. . . It didn't.
After some futzing, I rebooted into cwm recovery: flushed dalvic cache and fix permissions and rebooted. .. it has been working ever since.
This has happened only once, a few days ago. I'd wager it is a software issue.

Even I am also facing the same issue on Sheep ROM
Is this a ROM specific issue or Kernel ?
Same problem here !
I have been using the SGN for the past 4 days. I had this problem in the Stock ROM and it remains even after rooting the phone.
This phone/tablet seems to be a premature release with loads of small problems here and there. I guess they plan to remove these errors directly in ICS.
I believe the problem is on the kernel, try to get some that is stable.
If you are on original stick with it, if you have it rooted try to get the newest kernel.
What happen is that the proximity sensor closes the phone screen, and lower the speed of the cpu, in some times the cpu have some collapses and forget, what you need is to control the cpu or turn off the proximitor sensor, something like that.
I dont have that problem, with both official rom and rooted phone with abyssnote.
I hope this help.
It happened with me too, 2-3 times. Few hours ago I was checking a pdf document and I received a call and the other party couldnt hear me well. While he was calling me again everything froze. Neither touch buttons nor the screen was working. I had to take the battery out, since I couldnt turn it off because of the unresponsive screen. This is really bugging me off.
I've had this occur to me twice, first time I was fidgeting with some app I can't even remember which, second time just a while ago (and that's why I went in here searching), right after making a call.
Using the S-Pen to swype-gesture back and menu they work though, it's just the buttons themselves that are dead.
Wouldn't think the proximity has anything to do with it (nice idea anyway) because then the whole screen should be unresponsive to touchm, wouldn't it?
BTW I am using xlite rom now, and maybe I could go for the cache wiping.
EDIT: I had cleared cache partition and dalvik cache this morning, ths afternoon the note has been sitting idle on the desk, 2mA drain according to battery monitor widget estimates, and without any calls the buttons stopped working again...

+1 I'm using Abyssnote kernel too - no problems with soft buttons yet.
anyone find a fix for this yet? i have to reboot my phone after pretty much every call to get the buttons working again. starting to get really annoying

Reset and Root - CFKernel and AbyssNote worked for me

I had rooted and applied CF Kernel to my rom and had faced a few problems. But after wiping and applying CFRoot (latest) again I did not face any problems.
I have had no problems in the past 24 hours.
You can use the guide by Chainfire to root and apply CF Kernel (the best guide ever) and test for a day or two. then try moving to AbyssNote1.4 (I moved because I wanted to test OC)
Before you root and flash kernel, I will recommend factory resetting(since you are unrooted at the moment) and do not install any apps - because that is what actually worked for me.
UPDATE :
I havr started facing button issue on 1.4 AbyssNote as well.
Same problem here not woking :-( :-( :-(

How to fix this bug???
So, some news. I've been fighting with a nasty battery drain due to the phone being unable to keep the deep sleep status. In the process I've tried flashing AbyssNote kernel 1.2 (people were saying 1.4 suffered from high drains, and I haven't seen this problem since then... but it's been just a few, so it may be too soon.

I can confirm high battery drains with Abyss 1.4 (revert back to 1.2). But it is the only kernel which don´t suffer "touch buttons bug"
Hello I'm having some keyboard lag on my brand new device. It only picks up about 80% of my keystrokes on keyboard pro.
Any advice? I did a restore from my sgs2 settings.

Hi, I am in the process of updating it for the second time. I had two updates!!!
The first update I had was:

Now I just updated to:

Let's see how this works. I'll update again!
EDIT: It seems to have been fixed!
Hey guys. I just wanted to ask if anyone here uses smart keyboard pro. It only seems to be happening with this keyboard but it seems to be missing the keys I hit. Its rather annoying. I've tried a lot of other keyboards and I don't have the issue with them. But this is my favorite keyboard. I wrote the programmer a week ago and I imagine because of the holidays he's busy.
Does anyone else have this issue of the keyboard not picking up all the keys you hit?
Thanks.
Kent.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note.
I have the same issue.
The ONLY major lag/slowdown I get with my Note is when I'm using the keyboard, ANY keyboard that is...
I've tried smart keyboard, swiftkey & even ice cream sandwich keyboard, all are slow and when typing the keyboard is slow, cannot keep up resulting in mistakes...
I'm running on 2.3.6 and stock rom/firmware...
Hopefully ICS will fix this issue.
Bump!
Strange why some users have this lag issue with the keyboard whilst others do not....
At the end of the day it's the SAME phone having the same hardware...
I'm on stock rom/firmware & I for one am experiencing lag with the keyboard which results in me having to type slowly otherwise mistakes occur.
If I try to type fast the keyboard is slow & cannot keep up.
I've read others having the same problem as well as others not having this at all.
Having said this, I've tried 4 different keyboards and all gave me lag, none were any better or worse than each other...
Same problem. I have compared it with desire hd - desire hd keyboard is WAY FASTER than Note keyboard.
Tried different STOCK rom's KL7, KL8, tried different kernels (abyss, 2.5, 2.6),
nothing helps. It's just slow - letters is not appearing at the moment you press, it's like a 0.1sec lag or smth, but it feels, it's hard to type without mistakes when keyboard is not working at the realtime )
BTW I had this issue and on Nexus S...
Any solution to fix this?
Try switching haptic feedback off.... it mit help... or try thumb keyboard.. lots of customizations and no lag on it

Same issue, Im facing this since a month now.. Its become very irritating to use the phone itself.. I used Sgs2 for 5 months and did not face a single keyboard lag and a better hardware mobile is making it a big glitch.. I chat a lot on whatsapp and this issue is very irritating now! I have tried several stock n custom roms, but after say half an hour of continuous usage, this keeps happening.
I also noticed that this issue increases when the phone is on charge. The touch just does not wanna take any inputs.. Need a solution for this ASAP!!

I have just solved the lag issue! It may or may not work for you but it's certainly worth a try.
Try ''Perfect Keyboard''
For me this was the ONLY keyboard out of EVERY other popular keyboard app that was smooth and responsive. On top of this it's very customizable, give it a try!
Other keyboards I've tried which were laggy include:
- Stock Samsung Note Keyboard
- Ice Cream Sandwich Keyboard
- SwiftKey Tablet X Keyboard
- Better Keyboard
So to those who find most keyboard replacement apps laggy, try Perfect Keyboard!!
Thanks man.. Ill give it a try for sure.. This has become very frustrating now, so Im game to try any smallest of the solutions to resolve this issue!!
None of market keyboards does not fix this issue. Had some similar problems with Nexus S and it was solved by tuning thresholds and noise cancellations for touch screen controller (in kernel).
Let's hope ICS will solve that.
I know.. I tried perfect keyboard as well.. After same issue in this also.. After a bit this is also becoming laggy..
Another weird thing Im facing is that my touch sensitivity specially when on the keyboard isnt working at all when I start charging my phone..
I was about to post a thread on Q & A regarding this and saw this this thread. I too have the lag issue and few people above me has described it quite well.
Im on XXLA6 Deodexed Stock, and I too have the same issue. Samsung Keypad, and the Go Keyboard both are the same.
Any solutions ?
Only thing I have found till now it to Calibrate and then use the keyboard again.. Helps most of the times or else reboot thw handset. No solution yet..

It might have been a bad flash. Try redownloading the rom and flash again. Also, make sure that you do not have too many apps installed. How much free space do you have on system?
The only apps that I had were the ones that came with the ROM itself, didn't download anything before or after flashing it.
may i know does this rom support audience cancelling noise?
thx
I wanted to know which kernel is the best to flash with thi ROM other than glitch kernel that comes with the Rom.
The glitch kernel has a problem that you can't make a NANDROID backup with it. What other kernels does this ROM support can anybody post a link to one. I tried searching but couldn't find one

When my screen first appears after a reboot it does that, too, shows half the screen, then the other half, but only for a couple of seconds, I figured it's because it's still reading media, loading widgets, screen, etc. Doesn't last more than 2 seconds, fortunately.

Were you still running the Glitch kernel that installs with the ROM?
It's odd that it went from working to not working. It sounds like something changed something which caused a conflict or corruption... it wouldn't have boot looped otherwise.
If not had any issues like this...
It was a fresh install of the ROM itself, was running for ~ 5 minutes. I didn't install anything via the Market or anything like that....
Un-invert Calendar?
I like Doc's V5 ROM a lot. Best I've used so far. However, I don't care for the inverted apps and am using the "Revert Inverted Apps to Stock" tweak mentioned here. It works just as expected except for the Calendar app - it remains inverted.
Can anyone else confirm so I'll know it's not just me?
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks!
Bob
Only quirk I had with V5 was Gmail force closed constantly, even though I never use it. It would just notify me repeatedly that Gmail, an app I never touched, was force closing. Wiped caches and fixed permissions. It's been money ever since. Could use stronger battery life, but hey. Beggars can't be choosers.

Noticed a minor issue with my note running RR. My screen gets distorted (No image displayed, crazy moving vertical green lines on black background) when I power on the screen It happens only once in a while but just wanted to see if this was normal. The image moves but I can't do anything else with it, but after pressing the power button off and on again the whole problem is fixed! I've had my note for almost two months now and it has happened around 6x already. I've ran various versions of RR and they are all present, I cannot confirm if this is rom related because I've never really tried using other roms except for testing.
Can't make a screen shot because I can't seem to replicate the issue.
once a while it happens. you havnt mentioned on which rom n kernel you are. dont think a big issue.
Yeah it's a minor annoyance but doesn't affect the phone's usability. So this is perfectly normal?
happened to me a lot of times, i forgot app what caused this.
Pixel Salad. Usually cause by franco kernel.
If I'm imagining what you're describing correctly, this happens to my Note whenever I watch video of any kind. Even YouTube.
I had it too few times when i get sms
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I´ve had it happen to me a few times also. I get worried every time it happens because I think my screen is packing up. I started to think that it was ROM related(Alliance_ICS_v1) but NOW from reading your posts I realize that it´s NOT rom OR kernel related(NoteCore kernel) because it´s happening to people with different ROM´s and different kernels.I suspect that it´s a app related issue and Andrew0811 reported that IT WAS an app that was causing it.I hope he can remember what app it was because it would certainly be of great help.Could it possibly have been a Live Wallpaper,Andrew0811?

To me it´s a major annoyance and it most certainly is NOT normal.This should NOT be happening to a €700 phone and I for one believe that over time it will F-up your phone.Please guys,lets try to resolve this issue

If I remember correctly it happened once when I got an sms and once while I was playing music and powered on the screen. This rarely happens to me though so it's just a minor inconvenience for me. Don't know about you guys though. Right now I'm on RR7 with speedmod 3-6
Happened to me only once. Pressing the home button when screen was off.
Franco kernel indeed. Pixel salad is a nice description.
It did not came from my mind. That is the term they use if you read the threads in franco kernel and it happens to me also once when im on franco.

Nope, I don't like live wallpaper. not kernel either, because i only use cf, must be chainfire 3d or screen filter.
edit: well i tried franco kernel once, maybe it is franco's fault.

The few times that it happened to me was also pressing the Home button when the screen was off BUT I don´t use the Franco kernel(Ficeto´s NoteCore 0.6) so again I don´t think it´s Kernel related but rather a app that causes this. I stopped using a Live Wallpaper and haven´t had it since.I hope that was the cause and it won´t happen again.I´ll keep you posted.I´m determined to find the culprit that causes this.:fingers-crossed:
Seems once again Sony can't seem to get a stable phone. Shame as it offers so much potential with good design and great specs but failing on software again.
Constant app crashes, phone freezing,
Just goes to show you can't just chuck all the latest bits in a package and think it will work.
Going to have to return this unless there is a sudden fix in the next few days as I only have a 14 day change or mind.
That hasn't been my experience at all. I got the US phone and flashed the UK firmware. I haven't had any issues whatsoever. You should try a factory reset before returning the phone.
I have it for 2 weeks now, no freeze or reboots whatsoever... European Firmware here...
My phone was purchased from O2 in the UK. Don't think there is much bloat on there so don't think it's O2 that's screwed it up.
Phone is completely standard with just a handful of apps on it.
So far I have had numerous '' email has stopped working' to Google stopped working to music not working errors.
OK Google seems to hardly ever work. Almost seems like it can't hear the hot word.
I also think that many of the push services are being put to sleep which is why the battery life is so could as I often don't get notifications until I wake the phone yet the same accounts on my old s3 always come through first.
So far had one update come out for the phone. Don't know if it's the latest firmware though.
I can totally not agree with you.
Well I guess all I can do is try reset then but it's such a pain in the ar#e putting all your info back in again.

Does the launcher you use rebuild your home screens after a reset? I still use Google Now Launcher, and after a reset, when I reinstall GNL, everything is put back in its proper place, even web browser page links.
I am using the US firmware, and have not experienced any of the problems you mention. You may have a defective unit. Then again, if you're not happy with the phone for other reasons (and there certainly are things that could be better), you certainly don't want to wait past the return date!
I'm running the UK firmware with the US OEM file to have Volte and fingerprint sensor on T-Mobile and has been rock solid since day one. I would reset.
Have reset the phone and just setting it back up.
Will see how it goes over the next few days.
One thing I did think that was odd previously when it was playing up was when it would crash and reset itself was that when it started up it was on the Google keyboard set up screen. I had installed the Google keyboard as I preferred it to SwiftKey. Maybe the issues were linked to that somehow.
Wow too many errors there... Probably a faulty unit... Or maybe u should do a software repair with Sony pc companion
Don't forget it runs Android Orea 8.0 by means a lot of third party apps may not fully compatible at this moment, consider not many phones running Oreo hence the app developers are not in hurry to tweak their app to run smooth in Oreo. That's what causes the occasional app crashes I believe.
OK so after the full reset and initial impressions are good. Seems smooth with no crashes. I'm back running nova launcher (previously instilled this as thought it might be linked) ive also not installed Google keyboard yet and giving SwiftKey a go.
Only issue that really remains is the one with the ambient sensor. Find my self having to switch the adaptive brightness off at night when using the phone as it jumps around. Need to then switch it back in on the day where it seems fine. Hopefully a fix comes for this soon.

On reddit someone write that he downloaded LUX https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vitocassisi.luxlite and everything was working much much better. Maybe later i will find the post. (https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyXperia/)
No single reboot or app crash for me.
The only thing that crashes on me on occasion is Google Photos, other than that, rock solid so far.
Just had an a 3rd party app crash but as someone mentioned above it might be because the developer has not updated yet for oreo???
Other than that been much better so far

Same for me. 3 weeks i have got it 100% stable.:good:
Uhm ok I guess now it's my turn.
Today the "touch" went crazy. 2 times. Like for example keeping pressing recent button ? will result in multiple touches. Basically every touch is not a "pressing" touch. So I can't do swiping or other keep pressing relative touching. First time happened, a reboot fixed. Second time nothing worked. I have to SHUT DOWN THE PHONE AND WAIT A LITTLE BIT, then turn it on and everything was OK...
Is it just me?
P.s. UPDATE: I tried everything, safe mode, total reset, even software repair through PC companion...nothing. Its obviously a hardware problem, not software related. I returned this morning to assistance. They should give it back to me within a week...
My first week with XZ1C, 100% working, perfect, no reboot or other problems. One of the best phones I ever bought...
Phone's stable, no software/hardware issues. Working away reliably, battery consistently giving me expected results (ending day with 25%-50%, depending on use), connectivity perfect, performance smooth as butter.
