Animation bug? - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Found something wierd with developer options on this build. Not sure if I should post this in q&a or here, but general gets more traffic so.
Anyways I always disable animations fully when I turn on dev options. I have noticed that they do not stay set. The middle option, switches back to one. Not after a reboot, just at some point during sleep or maybe when a certain app or routine gets run. Not sure. Might be a setting that I have on interfering with my settings. Anyone else notice this?
I will probably reset and go through the setup again bit by bit to see what's causing this. Very noticeable when normally nothing but quickness happens between apps, then the stock animations start showing up randomly. Thx

I have the Sprint variant and I never noticed this until you pointed it out but yep, happens on the N900P as well.

So it is a bug! Definitely going to reset and setup bit by bit and see what does this. I also have a pebble. Do u by any chance? Forgot to mention that in the op, but who knows.

I do not own a Pebble, no.

I noticed the same thing, it happens to me mostly when I use the camera...I'm tracking to see what other apps cause it...if any

I set them all to .5 and they stick. Still see animations, but they are very quick. Also turn everything to "fast" in Nova launcher.

I tried that too, that's how I figured out the camera was causing it to switch back to 1x....

Cool, Def seems to be the culprit. Happened immediately after I opened camera too. Haven't seen anything else that I might be yet, but it might just be the cam. Thx

Has anyone found a workaround for this issue? anywhere? Verizons latest update fixed the call quality issue but the transition animation bug is still there...

No but the camera is the only thing that makes happen on mine too. On the update too. It's obviously a back burner issue. Hasent been too big of a deal for me, but I would love to see it solved.

Lag?

Am I the only one experiencing MASSIVE lag on this phone? The lag comes and goes intermittently, its really random. Not consistent, but I experience it often doing typical tasks, such as changing my browser window, opening text messages, changing between apps, the notification bar will stutter when pulled down randomly, etc. This is my second S4, and both seem to lag really bad.
What do you guys think?
Turn off all bloat ware or factory reset the phone.

Maybe power saving feature is on? I've read it can cause some since it affects cpu...

Its off, at first I thought maybe that was the problem, but I'm positive its off.
It's a problem. Everyone has noticed it with the AT&T version. AT&T and Samsung really need to get together and get on this pretty quick to address this issue. Stutter and lag should not be part of a phone that scores so well on every benchmark.

So its limited to just the At&t branded version? If thats the case I might just return this and pick up the T-mobile version.
Install Nova launcher and override the transition animations with either slide or ICS. That takes care of the stutters when opening and closing apps.

I have uninstalled all bloat, changed launcher to Nova, and reduced animation times... And my phone still lags with typing and in the browser and overall UI. This is disgusting to see... My Nexus 4 is so much smoother...

I've got an AT&T version and haven't experienced any lag?

Have you changed the transition animations within Nova settings? That fixes the stutters when opening and closing apps.

That stinks. Changed them a few hours ago and I've not had one stutter opening or closing an app since. Silky smooth now. Using ICS animations right now.

I have lag & studdering as well. I've had an S3 & a Note 2 & nether one of them has it as bad as my S4. Just thinking it may be because it's there 1st phone 2 run on the newest 4.2.2 OS & just need 2 work out a few bugs. Hopefully it will be fixed soon, fingers crossed becuase besides from that this thing is a Beast! Loving it

Im convinced the lag is a sure thing on ALL devices. Those of you who dont THINK you have no lag, I assume is because you have never used a lag free device like the HTC One or Nexus 4. Personally at this point I'd go as far to say my old S3 was "smoother" than this S4.....
Mine is so laggy that I don't even want to use it. I would say that its because it has so much going on.

Even with everything disabled and bloat ware deleted, there is still considerable stuttering and lag going on.

Keyboard lag

Does anyone else experience extreme keyboard lag? Even on my old Galaxy Nexus it wasn't this atrocious. Have yet to try another keyboard.
Sometimes when it lags this horrible repeating happens and words words are repeated multiple times. I think think it think it has think it has something to do with the auto correct lagging behind. See?

you could try resetting settings see what what happens happens
Haha I appreciate the response and the humor. I tried clearing the data for for the keyboard but I'm still running into the same problem. The only way that I can get around it is to slow down my typing speed. Annoying.
I tried using the Google Google keyboard Google keyboard as Google keyboard as well Google keyboard as well and encountered the same results.
Argh!

Haha it seems to have gone away on its own. Not sure why or how, but it's gone. I did notice that CPU spiked during those instances but I wasn't able to put my finger on what was causing that.

Still no idea how to replicate it. Seems to happen randomly. I usually have to turn off and on the screen to get it working again.

Strange issue, in thinking it could be the screen protector, or maybe you have all in one gestures enabled or a similar app that allows you to tap on statusbar for something. , or could just be defective. That's all I got. There was an awesome update today for T-Mobile
It fixes screen sensitivity and palm rejection as well as battery and performance upgrades. Its a great update but don't take it if you are gonna want root because they might find a vulnerability on the old software. Or maybe they find it on later software. No one really knows right now. Its up to u but I upgraded. Its worth it to me.

Live Wallpaper not sticking

I've had this issue ever since having this phone where if I have a live wallpaper did end up going back to the default wallpaper after a few hours. I initially thought maybe it was doze but I make sure that the live wallpaper I was using was not optimized.
Anyone else have this issue? And have you found a solution?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
You have a live wallpaper option?

I use a live wallpaper. No problems here.
I still can't believe no one else has this issue.
This morning I set Origami Live Wallpaper and an hour later (after using the phone frequently) I turned on my phone again and the wallpaper was back to the last static wallpaper I used. It's not just this particular LWP. It happens with all of them.
Happened 3 more times yesterday.

Still happening after a factory reset.
No issues here either. Been using Minima Pro for a while now.
I do have strange, persistent shadow at the top of the screen with a static wallpaper, which really frustrates me .
It's to the point where I'm thinking about contacting Samsung for a replacement. If it was software everyone would have the issue. Not sure if Samsung will do anything though.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
if you factory reset still have this problem, thats mean some app you installed has problem, try factory reset->dont install ANY app, just change live wallpaper->wait few days

Haptic feedback randomly stops working until reboot

Randomly my haptic feedback stops and won't come back until I reboot. Anyone else have this issue?
Yes. It's annoying. Don't understand why. Also my apps well randomly not be available. I have to uninstall and reinstall. Super frustrating

I feel like Samsung phones are RPG based and they only have a certain amount of points to use so they take the IR Blaster and add the SD slot back, they add water resistance and locked the boot loader. Why can't they just give without taking?

This happens to me as well. Is this a software issue? I have an international version, though.
