[Q] Lag on Nova Launcher animation? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I sometimes see stuttering in the animation when I close apps (ie. Chrome), more prominent if I open/close quickly. The opening animation is fluid, only the closing (which is like a fading animation) stutters. I'm not really sure what the cause is...I tried the stock launcher (i'm running Cloudy G3 2.2) and there's no lag whatsoever when opening/closing. I also tried Apex launcher and no lag either. I like Nova Launcher and would rather use it over Apex, so was wondering if anyone else experienced this and had a fix.

[Q/Bug] Lag/SlowSystem with Live-wallpapers?

Ok heres the problem: I set my background to a Live Wallpaper (For example Galaxy (Default L-WP)) and am running ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro with 3D AppDrawer enabled.
When i now open the AppDrawer and scroll up and down, its VERY LAGGY(Not fluid). It isnt the CPU, its set to 1,3ghz and it still lags.
PS: It's not only the 3D Drawer.. every drawer lags.
Would you test this aswell and report, also does anyone know how to fix this its very annoying?
I don't know if this issue is related to yours but I often find that MS2's screen has a delay of fractions of seconds. I am pretty sure it is not the speed of CPU which matters, as such lag is not found in DEFY. So I am thinking this (and probably yours) is the problem of the optimization of the software (well we all know Blur sucks).

This is what I think. Sometimes my 3D Appdrawer with ADW Launcher EX is not fluid even without running any 3D Live Wallpapers.
And some games lag as well when they should not CPU wise.
Does MS2 require some kind of lagfix like the Samsung i9000 to make it more responsive?
I dont know.. would be interesting to know
I found the most recent version of ADW Launcher EX to be a little laggy, the prior versions were perfectly smooth for me.
If I have a LWP running then scrolling is generally laggy and not fluid, I experienced the same effect with all prior versions of ADW Launcher EX and launcher pro. (LWP = laggy scrolling)
When I say "laggy", I mean, the response to my touch is fine, but the motion is laggy/jittery
Thanks for repeating what i have said....

[FIXED] All launchers slow in RandomROM 2.3...?

Hi, I recently installed RandomROM 2.3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1190337) and so far I like most of what it has except that pretty much all launchers have a lag when I switch to the them. I have tried the default Launcher Pro that it comes with, ADW, Go Launcher, Zeam, but they all seem to lag whenever I switch to the home screen. I have also tried messing with Launcher Pro's memory settings without any luck.
The following video shows the lag that I am experiencing. I am currently sticking to Go Launcher since I prefer it and since they all exhibit the same behavior.
http://www.screencast.com/t/0ZrxDvMRFs
Any ideas on how I can improve this?
Bump.
Does anyone have any ideas? This is very annoying.
Try the v6 super charger ( option 6 or 9)

@SwimDrewid Thanks, I went ahead with Agressive profile and that seems to have fixed the issue.
@Zeinzu I am guessing that is exactly what V6 supercharger did. Thanks!

[Q] Launcher redraw ?

I have latest 20G update on my D802. I'm using stock LG launcher. Lately, I get quick launcher redraw, afte unlocking my phone. Weather widget and couple of icons redraw with a "blink". Is there any solution to this? Anybody else expiriencing the same issue?
If the entire launcher is redrawing then it might be getting kicked out of memory. Some 3rd party launchers have an option to remain in memory, can you try one of those and tell me whether those launchers also redraw.

I tried Nova launcher and it doesn't redraw, but transition animations are choppy (micro stutters, but they are smooth when using live wallpaper), so I decided to stick with stock launcher. As I said, it's not that entire launcher is redrawing, but two folders and 4x1 default weather widget.
I have never used stock kk, so it could be an issue with the update. Try clearing cache/data for the LG apps via settings, Apps->All.

I had the same problem on 20d. Got tired of it and I use apex now. It never redraws and animation is smoother. Free ram is also much more with apex.
Too bad cuz i liked stock lg launcher.

Yesterday, I made a factory data reset, after updating to 20H firmware on my D802. Still, this launcher redraw issue is present and it's really bothering me. If I have to do something on the fly and just after unlocking my phone, this redraw happens and whole interface stutters for second or two.
Same here since 20G... Happy to see that I'm not alone... Again a buggy update...
Having the same issue with 20c, nothing changed after a couple of flashes as well.
Been using the stock launcher for 1 year and it always redraw. Finally installed Nova last week and there is no more launcher redraw issue.
I guess I'm lucky; not a single redraw here, not even that one when switching from portrait to landscape (or vice versa). 20H.
I also had the same problem with stock LG launcher but I`ve read somewhere that the problem is gone when there is no folders on launcher.
I had 3 folders and when I removed them the problem is gone
Is anyone with the problem having folders on homescreen? If you do try to remove them and see what would happen
well, actualy folders and widget are indeed redrawing and I can confirm that I have folders...BUT I had some on previous rom I it worked flawlessly...
I just removed one folder that was on my home screen. Lets see if there will be some redrawing now.
Interesting, never thought about folders and redrawing. Got 3 of them tho. Plus 4 widgets (if we count clock). Still no issues, eh...

Never had any folders - still redraws every once in a while... Have 4 widgets though...
For the lag it seems that it occurs when I press home after switching from a band to another or from an antenna to another
Whell, last night I removed folder from the home screen and I still gor redraws, so it must be bad coding in LG Home launcher.
After KK update I've had launcher redraws even after killing all background apps, so I had them hundreds times every day. After updating to "H" release all redraws gone. Not any single redraw.
It is far better with 20h for sure but still having some lags
I have 20H firmware and redraws all the time. Even after factory reset.

Lag in LG UX

Hi,
I have been using HD870DS for quite sometime now. While I don't really like the user interface, what stood out the most is the lag while clicking the icons and actually things happening. Take the example of opening settings menu and then opening its sub menus, there is perceptible lag even after disabling the animation, I have Honor 8 running same Android 7.0 feels faster, Is this normal? or is my device only, I have reset-ted the device couple of times but no avail. This extends to third party launchers too, this is the reason I uninstalled Nova and currently using LG Home launcher. While clicking some Icon in homescreen there is perceptible lag between clicking and app opening. Do you have this problem too?

nothing for me.... I use pixel 2 launcher... it's smooth as fluid....
Nothing here.... maybe some apps are causing this lag.

I doubt that because my freshly formatted G6 has lag albeit slight but noticeable to me.
Try toggling the "Force GPU Rendering" under developer option. And you will feel the difference. It will work smooth.

Slow animations with Nova launcher

Anyone noticed slow animations for app closures when you are using Nova launcher? Any fix or work around?

I notice it. I have been using nova launcher since day one on my 6T. The only slow animation I am facing is if I swype from the bottom centre to go to the home screen from within an app. If I am pressing back or swyping up from bottom right or bottom left, the animations are quick.
I mailed Nova Devs about it, and they said it is not to be fixed from their end but from Oneplus' end. As if you are in another app, Nova does not play any role then. According to them, all third party launchers should be having this. I have not tried any other cuz Nova is just too good otherwise.
Third party launchers do not support OnePlus's gesture animations. Only the stock OnePlus launcher will have the proper animations

I had the same problem with nova and decided to try another launcher (lawnchair) but this has the same issue.
I have noticed with this launcher that the 'ok Google' always shows up in the pill widget where on nova it would often be blank. Don't know why that is.
You can speed up animations in developer options. I set .5x for Window/Transition animation scale, as well as Animator duration scale. That's usually the first thing I do
on a new phone. I can't stand slow animations, and Nova feels so much better with those set

I will be getting my 6T next week...
On all my previous phones (there are many) I have always used Nova Launcher - I really like it particularly the TeslaUnread notification add-on as its great for showing unread message count and on other apps also.
Whats the unread notification like on the 6T ? (I have never had a OnePlus phone before so not sure how they handle this)
Also how is 6T in general with stock launcher - I just find Nova so customisable and it will be hard for me to not use it but I would like to try not to...
Cheers Frosty

No problems with nova
Working great ..animations are fast & smooth
Tesla unread working properly...
Same "problem" with Evie launcher, it's not laggy but compared to oos it's slower, using .5 animation speed fixed it.
Perhaps oos has a 1 in animation that is in reality 0.5 in equivalence to other launchers. Sort of small cheat from oneplus?
