No idea if this is a ICS custom rom thing, but I remember it happened on stock as well.
When trying to install an .apk from sdcard (sideloading), I get the PackageInstaller confirmation window. Sometimes the right side where the OK button is, is non responsive (left side on Cancel can be clicked). After some trying, it works. Now, I have no idea what causes this, but it's ****ing annoying and seriously makes me want to throw the phone up the wall.
Anyone else noticed this ?
Did you enable installation from Unknown sources?

Um, yeah, the issue is in the Package Installer, I wouldn't even get to it, if I hadn't enable that.
That happens to me if I have the app Screen Filter enabled/on.

Hm, I've got Lux installed (manages lowest auto-brightness setting, because stock ICS is too dim). Perhaps that could be the issue. I'll try it out, thanks

I'm the developer of Lux. PackageInstaller shouldn't have any issues with Lux installed provided you haven't turned off 'compatibility mode' in settings.

Oh man, you're a genius. I've had this problem time and time again and always wondered what it could be. I've ran around the problem using a "silent" installer.

I tried uninstalling Lux and responsiveness was suddenly back, it recognized the touch everytime.
Compatibility is on -> screenshots
When I restored Lux back again, the responsiveness went back to nonconsistant, sometimes it works fine, mostly it ignores the touch.

You might have to wait a couple of seconds before Lux disables itself. Lux needs to poll to check the current foreground app and disable itself. It polls every 3 seconds, unless it has detected the same app a few times in a row, in which it slows polling down to 9 seconds.

No problem. I wish there was a cleaner solution, but alas the Android API doesn't provide an intent which warns apps that a secure view is being shown.
Really Android should be drawing secure fields above everything else, rather than disabling the view - whoever thought that was a good idea isn't very intelligent.

You can't run any.other GPS fix apps or it'll block configuration from working.
Follow the configuration instructions,don't have any other GPS fix apps installed.then reboot after you back other GPS file up and put new configuration file in, after you reboot go into settings, applications and clear GPS data. Then go into lbs mode into supl settings and make sure its on auto config. Then run lbs test until it locks. That's best I got bro that's what fixed mine and four of my friends and some on here as well. Like I said alleluia phones are different. Good luck and best wishes

Greetings! Prompt how to enter please in LBSTestMode? * # * #3214789650 # * #* doesn't work. Through Launcher too it is impossible. An android 2.3.4, an insertion matrux portable from Galaxy S through Hellraiser beta 6. "There was an unexpected stop of appendix Service mode (process com.sec.android.app.servicemodeapp). Repeat attempt."
GPS badly works, it is not connected at all to companions more precisely.
I have a Verizon S3 and it has choppy animations when switching between apps using the recent apps menu. I've tried turning both animation and transition options to off in the dev menu and it will still sometimes flicker when swapping apps.
Also, the multitasking recent apps menu itself has always been choppy, which is really frustrating. I know touchwiz isn't the best, but I never thought the phone would be this choppy. The phone itself isn't really slow, it's just the fade in / fade out animation / draw time of the recent apps menu is TERRIBLE.
Things I've done to test:
Power saving is always off. I tried turning it on and unchecking the cpu throttling, but no dice.
Tested with brightness set to auto and not auto, but no dice.
Quadrant score was in the low 5000s, which I believe is good.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this normal, or a sign of a defective phone? Thanks!
For the app switcher, mine hasn't been slow very often unless I'm dealing with Chrome. I have my "Window Animations Scale" set to: .5x so maybe that helps for the app switcher. I have all my transitions set to .5x actually.
I why I personally haven't noticed is cuz I dislike the implementation of the app switcher. I don't use it often unless switching from texting to Web browsing. I've used my mom's Nexus a few times and it's a smarter UI decision there. Holding the home button to activate the app switcher just feels like a step down to GB.

Thanks for the info. I seem to use my mine pretty often. I'm mainly trying to figure out if this is a known bug with touchwhiz (or if this is just how touchwhiz is), or if it's something wrong with the hardware and I need to return it for another phone.
I've also had some odd lag with the notification menu opening and closing, which only began happening in the past week or so.
What do you guys think?
Do you have the "force gpu rendering" box checked? If so uncheck it. I always get choppy when I have that checked.

Nope, I have the power saving options turned off.
I wonder if the slowness with the app changing is just normal...but it always seems faster on videos reviewing the phone online.

While I've tried a factory reset in the past, I didn't know about the recovery menu for non root before. I backed everything up, booted into that, cleared the system cache and then rebooted (triggering the factory reset). I skipped everything during setup and then restored only my Google account, and now everything is silky smooth. The recent apps menu is consistently smooth as well.
Thanks everyone! Hopefully it stays this way.

After playing with it for few days, it's still very smooth when you bring up the recent apps menu and click through to an open app. It's kind of sluggish when opening the menu when you're already in an app. Anyone else seeing that?

It was like that when I was on TW. It runs at like 6 fps and it's extremely disappointing that a badass phone like this would lag there. I read that the recents menu isn't HW accelerated on TW ICS? It's completely smooth on cm10.

Make sure Light flow is checked in accessibility settings. So currently, having an "always on" notification for any one setting will mess with the other settings. Dev is working on a fix. other than that it should be working.

You should be starting to get the update now. I've done a workaround for always on as the LG drivers just don't accept it. I'd class the "always on " option for the Nexus 5 as being "almost always on"
Updated the app now, will see how it goes
I still seem to be getting notification light illuminated after the notification has been read.
Addmitedly I don't have it running as a foreground service.
Anyone know of a way to get rid of the lightflow notification in the pull down shade? I like to keep that area clean for notifications. I know other apps offer an option to disable that notification.

Pretty sure it was faux clock causing the popup. Maybe a bug in his new beta or the intelli ksm feature.

Interesting. I've been directed here as I have the same issue. Started yesterday. I am going to disable Fauxclock notifications and will report back.
Ah finally, I am getting this as well thanks for the heads up.
It's a beta feature Now FauxClock is out of beta, you should update to production version
