Hey, I'm having a similar issue with my edge panel, and it's driving me insane. Most of the time, it'll swipe open perfectly. Sometimes, though, it gets stuck and will take three or four swipes before it slides open. I'm almost positive it's a software rather than a hardware issue. If it were hardware, then it should swipe perfectly all the time or swipe inconsistently all the time. I use Package Disabler Pro and Greenify. Thus, I wonder if maybe it's due to disabling or Greenifying the wrong app. Anyhow, I'm actually factoring resetting my phone as I type this. I'm hoping that it will take care of it. I'll keep checking the panel as I Greenify and disable apps, and I'll tell you what I figure out.

Definitely software related. After the factory reset, it's working like a charm. Try it.

After the factory reset, did you add all of your apps to Edge apps panel, and it works well or does it work well in the default mode as it is after the factory reset?

@MikeChannon
Hi there,
Can you please change the word "Delilah" in the thread title to" Delay", so that it would be clearer to other users?
The Android keyboard "fixed" my typing, and I noticed only now.
Thank you very much.

Unfortunately, as soon as I added my apps to the panel and set up PDP it started happening, but less frequently. I'm so confused. I did notice that it seems to happen only if I immediately try to swipe it after closing an app. Like maybe the panel needs a couple of seconds to refresh itself? I also think my screen protector plays a role. Additionally, how I swipe is a factor. If I start my swipe to far outside the edge screen, it usually won't slide out. But if I start it at exactly where the tab is, it slides out as expected. I'm pretty sure it isn't a hardware issue. It definitely seems software related. I'm going to stop worrying unless it gets worse and hopefully with time I'll figure it out.

I can confirm on my end that the screen protector doesn't affect the problem, I don't have one and still have the issue.
Also for me sometimes open perfectly after closing an app, and sometimes it stumbles.
I also hope they figure out the problem and fix it....

So do I. I think I notice things like this because I tend to be weird about my phones. They've gotta be perfect. I'm sure a normal user would have given this no thought.

Same here. I tend to take my mobiles to the extreme. A normal user probably wouldn't set access to all of his app via the edge apps panel. To bad Samsung doesn't think about these options in development.

Ok, I think I figured it out. My carrier is T-Mobile. Not sure who you have. But if I go to Apps in Settings, and then select Galaxy Apps and Uninstall Updates, the edge panel works as it should. Try it.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me... Did as you said... For me it's not 100% but for sure works better... Noticeable difference..

Have you had better luck??

No Idea to help Actually ..

[Q] Atrix touch screen off

Ok,
does anyone else notice that the Atrix touch screen location seems a bit off?
I really notice it during browsing the internet and it seems it needs calibration. I cant say how many times I have had to click back an redo my clicking action. It seems that when you click its not accurate...
Any one else notice?
Can it be recalibrated?

Yeah I've noticed this too. It's not too bad but it is moderately annoying.

SAME HERE
Yep, same problem here but only happens in the browser. No problems typing at all but I always click a link and it seems to click a link or two above my intended selection. This problem was also even more prominent when I tried to use the firefox browser which seems to be the only browser that will allow me access to my schools website..sticking through it for now in hopes that a software update will fix it unless other users aren't having this problem, maybe just need to exchange this particular device.

After reading your post I agree with you. I mostly notice the problem with the browser. I do notice it slightly when typing but this could be do to me coming from an Iphone 4 with the keyboard being slightly different.
I dont know if you tried the browser Skyfire, but this was the only browser that I could make changes and save them when accessing the Google Voice settings from my phone. The standard browser, firefox, and even opera didnt display the full page so I was unable to actually save my changes.
Skyfire has its annoyances as well but its the best I found so far...
Thanks

Well Mine was annoying to type in landscape cause the spacebar was about 1mm higher then it looks. Felt like I was typing a "B" to hit the spacebar.
That was annoying but now, now I have the Nexus screen flip-out! Any time I type or touch the screen the thing flips out. It has a area that is seeing a perminate touch or something.. there is a app on the market that allows you to see where the touch points are. I'll have to down load it and then show someone at ATT to get it replaced... I'm irritated cause at this point I've got a lot of work in it and I cna't just make a nandroid and then restore on my next device..
Sorry about the double post, its not letting me edit my last.

If it is like the Nexus, no software won't fix it, or at least never did. They claimed they were "looking into it" BS for you'll replace it soon enough..
Is anyone else having the touch flip out issue? with multitouch visulizer or multitouch tool see what you get. I ran visulizer on mine and after about 2 min it had a perminate point on the top right corner, eventually it locked up to the point of not being able to use it.
Well hopefully there is a fix for it...I kind of put myself in a tight spot as I installed adeo rom prematurely and as far as I know there is no going back to stock yet. On top of that im pretty sure DG is done done with the atrix so unless someone picks up where he left off and I can getback to stock, ill have to live with the problem. Stupid me...

So it isn't my imagination, or my fat fingers. ONLY IN THE BROWSER. I'll touch something, and something a good 1/4" below it gets selected.
I'd say calibration also, but that doesn't explain why only in the browser. (I miss my Palm stylus!)
Are any of you facing this same problem?

Bugs/Suggestions of Samsung official Jellybean [XXLSJ]

Hello. Well have this last update for our devices official from samsung. And I thought on helping samsung perfecting it. So in order to so that I think we should make this thread where we all together say wich are the bugs we found. I find already 2 bugs on the email app wich leads to a lot of wakeup calls, makes the phone use alot cpu and force closes when we touch on priority mail. There are other bugs wich people found here so I think we should list them.
Rules are simple, if you find a bug, report here and say how to replicate it. We together see it, and list here to report to samsung. Also suggestions to make things better. (of bugs or things you think that could be better) ​
Since they give us a ROM. At least a perfect well done one. What do you think? They need happy costumers. Or well go elsewhere.
Ps: if you can leave logcat, I'll leave on the email all log cats attached to each bug
List of bugs:
The Email app crashes when the general options, and priority email sections are accessed.
Buggy Microsoft Exchange integration. It seems to use an excessive amount of resources causing battery drain. This problem only seems to exist within the default Email app.
Smart stay not working properly.
Samsung keyboard's gesture typing is unable to properly detect and type the whole word.
Swype Keyboard won't automatically insert a space (I don't think this is a bug due to the text field being an address bar)
Sometimes, lock screen is unresponsive.
In the app drawer, when the apps are sorted alphabetically, then as downloaded apps it crashes Touchwiz Home.
In Car Mode, TalkBack is not functioning and is very unresponsive.
Google Maps and Samsung Push Services uses an excessive amount of battery when it is not used.
Throughout the OS, there are issues with stuttering and lack of responsiveness.
Wi-Fi connection often freezes after deep sleep of around 10 - 15 minutes ("Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" is set to "Always"). Wi-Fi notification icon shows that it's connected, but no data can be sent or received. (Only solution found so far is to manually disconnect and reconnect.)
In the camera, there is a reddish blemish on the center when the camera is used in low-light situations(I believe this is a hardware issue.)
Project Butter seems to be improperly implemented.
Unable to use the handwriting function on the Samsung Keyboard because it force closes.
Nasty color banding
After reboot , changes made in launcher menu will go back to how it was in begining (for example Folders created, disapear, or just the apps inside it, will be offside)
Suggestions list:
Music Controls (most members suggest this)
Lock screen more costumizable with possibility of more than three icons, something new I found ugly the way we unlucky the screen. (votes?)
Quick reply as cm has (i find this really useful, votes?)
Option to set if we want zoom in or zoom out option in the rear of the phone while browsing
in powermore , on the browser, instead of blue, an option to keep the white.
More sms before converting to mms, or if possible a manual option for that.
Lockscreen sometimes unresponsive, and the hand writing (?

Things you like/dislike about Lollipop 5.0.1 on your Edge

Hello everyone,
I made this topic so everyone can mention things he/she like or dislike about new Lollipop updates and things you want Samsung to consider on the coming updates.
Things i like
1. The sound on speaker and headset seem much higher.
2. The camera app seem faster on every aspect.
3. Ability to change folders color.
4. Recent app is smoother and faster.
Things i dislike.
1. Shout icon on the camera app moved from edge part of the screen.
2. Heads-up notification is useless on the edge device and samsung was better to disable it.
Other things i leave for you guys to comment and discuss
I'm on T-mobile so I don't have lollipop update yet but I'm surprised you didn't mention ART. Do you see a significant improvement in performance? Especially in the UI. I noticed a big difference on my Note 3 when updating to Lollipop.
Don't have 5.0.1 yet, only read opinions of Note 4 users.
I heard that there is no silent mode, just only vibrations and normal sound.
Second - now you can't block calls, notifications etc. (blocking mode) from X hour to Y hour. Now it has name "ALL" (wtf?) and i heard it's worse than older "blocking mode".
For me worst thing in Lollipop is this one you mention in point 1.
Camera button on edge was perfect, and now it's in the same place like in others phones
Maybe there is chance to install camera from 4.4.4 ? Because it's only thing that keeps me from upgrading system from KK to LP.
Yep i didnt mention all goodies.
*Definitely there is a significant improvement in performance du. to ART.
*Silent mode is exist and works.
* there is 'Do not disturb' mode and you can enable schedule option and seem more advance than blocking mode.
Need more information from you. Then i will update the list in the first post
Likes:
'Places' functionality and associated edge panel
Dislikes:
With the flip case and no lock screen, on opening the cover the express me panel appears on the edge, rather than the first selected edge panel. So that means I don't have my list of app shortcuts! Even pressing 'Home' doesn't bring them up. I have to swipe the edge to get it to work

Of course you can. I am currently running lollipop, but you have to root your device and then install it via odin. If you need help just pm me and I will be glad to help.
Agree with point four (things you like) and generaly speaking UI is more smooth.
Desagree with point one you dislike. To much unintationnaly shutter trigger. So the move is welcome for me. Maybe on option/setting to have the choice will be good for everyone.
Totally agree with point two about notification redondancy.

I use hangouts & auto MMS download works fine.
I honestly don't dislike anything on lollipop compared to kitkat. The camera button placement is no big deal, I use voice control if it's inconvenient to use the botton.
Unfortunately even with Hangouts, auto-mms download doens't work since BOC6, stock or cooked rom (french langage)
I likey
Since NO carrier or store has the white model Edge, I opted to order the international sm-n9150 from an import/export mail order. This allowed me to use T-Mobile since they allow all unlocked phones to be brought in. And... AND I didn't realise this when I purchased it but I don't have to wait for the carrier approved OTA for lollipop, I just get the Samsung official update as soon as they release it! I will be getting international models from now on just for this reason. It's the second best thing to nexus immediate updates as I only have to wait for ONE layer of delay (Samsung's) not two (Samsung's AND the carriers). Also, no carrier bloat.
Lollipop is pretty. Material design is nice. Lots of little graphical touches add to the android UI VERY nicely. I'm aware that touch wiz negates quite a few of these touches but I still really like it.
My 4.4.4 note edge had issues where it would stutter upon touching the screen to swipe, and instead of swiping, it would register a TAP and open the app or button under my finger. This annoyance had been immediately alleviated... I can't actually remember it happening once since I updated.
ART makes a difference. Chrome and many apps scroll almost TOO fast.
Haven't objectively measured battery effect yet. So far it's no worse or better, but it's been a short time and I'm playing with the phone as lot.
Right after my update, i felt the system was choppy and stuttery. But i planned to After I update, to do a system factory reset. Recommended for such a large update, and a couple times a year anyway. After that and after a couple reboots, all the caches and temp files seem to be settled in and it's buttery smooth almost everywhere. I also activated developer options and put all my screen animations to 2x. Yes this makes them slower but oh so pretty!!!!
Notifications are so nice. I agree with earlier poster that the pop up notifications that float over the top bar could go away since the edge bar should handle that but it's a small thing.
The place where some animation chop still happens is Samsung's app drawer scrolling. It's not always but it's there very slightly. This goes away if you use a nice launcher replacement like Next Launcher or etc. I have yet to set a launcher replacement, I'm going to use the default launcher for a while to see all the changes. So far so good.
All the people complaining about radical changes for the worse when they update, are doing something wrong. Factory reset after updating!!!!

In earlier days of hangouts, pre Galaxy Edge, I had a devil of a time getting MMS even after they "fixed" it and other users reported it works. So I feel the pain!!!
However, I can report I just tested it again by sending pictures to myself on hangouts and:
-with mobile data OFF and WiFi on, MMS does not come in.
-with normal mobile data on, it does. This is the normal usage scenario for 99% of times anyway so I'm OK with it.
This is normal i believe l since MMS is part of a data standard that uses the cellular audio channel the way SMS does. It's an old format that needs to be replaced. (SMS too)
Anyway it does work. Ensure you are not using WiFi only is my suggestion...
Personally i love and will stay with the loly...the only thing im praying now is for xopsed to work with the edge. Hopefully they will come up with a fix soon..:thumbup:

Why don't you like lollipop? Im still with kitkat 4.4.4, I have AT&T, I haven't updated yet. I keep wifi OFF so it won't download...

Haven't had that much time to assess Lollipop on my SM-N915S (Exynos), but really hate the camera button, placed on the edge screen was perfect (for me) on KK
Have noticed that the kernel LMK OOM minfrees and adj have the wrong permissions and you can't change them. Fixed it in my SkyHigh custom kernel though
Also, noticed the minfree values have increased from KK, so may help keep a smoother ROM (freeing up more RAM for intensive tasks) at the expense of less multi-tasking
Device appears a little smoother, but wish Sammy would unlock 64bit for Exynos5433 device. I hate they keep it neutered for the sake of keeping Qualcomm SD 805 customers happy.

Problems since Lollipop update
Hi. I updated to Lollipop last night and I've noticed a couple of issues today. First, I keep getting a security notice stating "Unauthorized actions have been detected." When I tap the notification, it goes away and then comes back again in a few minutes. I've tried updating my security policy, but that hasn't helped. Second, I hate the floating notifications that pop up at the same time as the edge notifications. It's like AT&T gave me the Galaxy Note 4 Update instead of the one for the Edge. Considering that they also moved the photo button to the main screen, this seems fairly likely. I've also noticed that my RAM status shows that I'm using 2.05/2.71 GB with no apps running. What?!

European honor 7 stutter/lag

I received my honor 7 this week and im generally pleased with it.
The only issue thats starting to get annoying is the lag and stuttering while scrolling through any menu or app.
I've made sure its in performance mode. I assume the govenor is being to aggressive on the downclocking.
Anyone else having this problem

Stutter and lag can happen once in a while, which is there on even the best of phones. Besides that you might notice a small lag if you restart the phone and stock apps start for the first time. Or soon after installing a new rom might lag as well for a minute.
Did factory resetting fix this problem? I am having the same lag in scrolling, since I received the phone. Am thinking about factory resetting now.

Are you using the default theme? I have noticed that with some of the themes I have tried there is a problem with lag or stuttering between home screens. This is not the case with most themes, but some of them seem a bit badly put together as they can cause problems. The one I'm using at the moment (Lyle's Golden Age) is completely lag-free. I found the original theme so ugly that I removed it immediately and I can't remember if it had a problem.
This problem seems to be of a software nature and if you use Nova launcher there should be no problem.

Are you using the default theme? I have noticed that with some of the themes I have tried there is a problem with lag or stuttering between home screens. This is not the case with most themes, but some of them seem a bit badly put together as they can cause problems. The one I'm using at the moment (Lyle's Golden Age) is completely lag-free. I found the original theme so ugly that I removed it immediately and I can't remember if it had a problem.

I am not using the default theme. I tried Lyle's Golden Age to check, but still stuttering.
I use the Google Now Launcher, where it is really obvious.
When I swipe to the left to get to the now part, the device has to load the list. Takes like half a second.

Ok then, this is nothing I have seen at all! In your situation I would suspect a bad app and so I would firstly try to uninstall apps one at a time and if this didn't help, factory reset.
BTW, what is your firmware version and where did you buy it?

Bought it from Vmall, EU version.
Firmware version PLK-L01C432B121.
I might just do a factory reset.
Strange things are happening, and I think this lagging is happening since the first boot.
Your phone is 100% smooth?
Like if you open an app that has a scrolling list and immediately start to scroll, it doesn't lag and keep running a little bit when you stop?

I can only remember two apps from the top of my head that have had this behaviour, and that is the default web browser and Tapatalk. I use Chrome for web browsing and with it there are no problems at all. Tapatalk has improved over the latest versions, so if I just wait a second before starting to scroll there is no problem.
Other apps are super smooth right away. Name an app that you have problems with and I will test it.

I just downloaded doubletwist player, where if I add a podcast (W&W mainstage) it will lag hard if I scroll up and down fast the list of episodes.
The whole app overall is a little bit slow for some reason.
If you want to try that one, I would be very interested to know what you experience.

I tried it a bit and Went to the Games and Hobbies pod section and it seems completely smooth on my phone. The list and icons has to be fetched first, but apart from the online downloading time the list is smooth to scroll. There are hundreds of pods so you can't expect them to load instantly. When it says Reading... at the bottom it has to stop and this has nothing to do with the phone.

I have a hard time distinguishing between something just still loading in while scrolling or just lagging.
I took the same list you just said, and if I load like 200 things and then scroll trough that list it is smooth until is suddenly jumps a bit.
Then it is smooth again, and then again a little jump and skipping a few podcasts and stuff.
That doesn't happen for you?

No, if I let it load 200 podcasts and scroll fast through that list it runs comlpetely smooth and stops only if I put my finger on it. It rolls almost all the way down to the last entry if I swipe fast with my finger.

Well, that is good news. That means that I will just have to try and reset my phone and that it is still and awesome device.
I will try and factory reset and report back for others!

Do that and do NOT reinstall a backup of apps or settings, only contacts or so. As little as possible as some app or setting, in that order, probably is the cause of your problem.
Good luck!!

If you have sd-card mounted, first try to unmount and remove this, it might have problems that result in stutter.
I already did the factory reset several times and Updated the phone to B140 and continue with a lot of lag in apps and between screens.
I come from a Nexus5, I don't know if is my perception of smooth that is to high.
Anyone else feel the same?
I dont have problems either.
Was really smooth on B140, now with Android 6 even more.

Apps randomly refresh

Hey, just wondering if anyone else is having problems with apps randomly refreshing. It happens in every app except the browsers. It's a bit annoying when you are typing thingso out and the app refreshes, losing what you typed. I've tried reinstalling apps, I have no idea what's up.
Thanks again.
Never experienced what you are getting.
Maybe upload a video so other users can see what is actually happening.
Is it on every application? or selected application? Like HTML5 apps?
Not sure, seems like all my apps, except Browser apps. I'll upload a video sometime tomorrow or the next day, I'm on limited wifi, so uploading some videos would take forever. It's weird and very frustrating, I really want to like this phone, but with the apps refreshing at times when I don't need them to be, it's a real bummer. You'll being doing something in almost any app and it will refresh/reload itself.

I have no idea what that is. I thought it may have been package disable pro, but I turned that off and it wasn't the case. I notice it in snapchat the most, I'll take a picture and as I'm marking people to send the snap to, it'll just reload back to the picture taking screen.
Same here, it started from today. First noticed on snapchat, took a video about to post it lol lost it. Then youtibe app refreshed itself, also media player while watchibg video. Its kinda weird. Maybe its ram problem ?
Also rebooted the phone, did not help.

Just looked it up, I'm using a new up-to-date phone. Never installed anything like that, just apps.

Yeah, restarting or clearing caches does nothing, I'm going to factory reset my phone as soon as I get my SD in.

Had a factory worked for you, because I have the same problem.
It started out of nowhere. Really annoying.
YouTube videos also randomly get paused.
Same problem here, it has been going on for over a week now. Thought it was maybe a screen or gesture setting... Nope. Then thought maybe it was the Nova app launcher, but I've uninstalled it and still have the same issue.
I have the same here. Did anything work for you?
I'm having the same problem! I'll be scrolling and the page is constantly resetting to the top. Filling out forms and they'll be deleted. YouTube videos are always stopping. It's a real pain. Has anyone discovered the cause or a solution yet?
+1..Happening to me for a couple weeks now. Factory reset my phone. No dice. Apps refreshing, YouTube oausing - same symptoms. So frustrating
Has anybody got a fix for this issue? Its really annoying.
Did the factory reset worked for anyone?
Thanks

Hey Shifazh,
Yes, I eventually did a factory reset which fixed the problem.
Make sure you backup EVERYTHING from your phone.

Its an issue for me too. I will try reset today.
My factory reset seemed to work for a while, but then it started doing it again. S7 running nouget
Do you mean auto update? Instead of auto refresh? as far as I know auto refreshing apps are normal, it's supposed to do that. Example your weather app (if you have use them)
If you mean auto update you can change the setting in the play store
