Hi, Iam experiencing this issue, when game just freezes but sound, onscreen controls are still working. Same happens in some apps (gmail, play music, google calendar very often). App just freezes, tapping/controls are still working; when I press home and then go back to the app the screen is black but controls works.
Look like some GUI drop(?)...
Happened to me on ICS(ASUS stock 9.2.2.3, Megatron+guevor/testymeh, ARHD+stock/testymeh) regardless "Force 2D gpu rendering" development option.
Ive read about google apps force closing, but this is not it. Is this some common ICS problem? Iam thinking about downgrading to HC, I finnaly got rid of SOD/RR problems and now this sh*t happens all the time.

I'm curious if anyone has seen a similar relationship: I have read several posts about devices that will randomly stop rotating, and only a reboot will restore the function. I had never experienced this problem until installing and playing Meganoid yesterday. After playing I noticed that the screen will sometimes stop rotating, either getting stuck in landscape, or refusing to switch to landscape. I contacted the developer and was told that they don't mess with the rotation settings so its not their problem. However, I noticed after launching the game that the notification bar switched to landscape even when I am holding the phone in portrait (similar to most games...). I have since uninstalled Meganoid and now have no problems with the rotation sensor (note, I have several other games that play in landscape). Any thoughts or similar experiences?
Some apps got screen mess on OrDroid 8.2.0, Dolphen Browser,Chrome Beta
did anyone has the same problem?
sorry for my pool English
Yup, whenever using chrome, my keyboard sometimes gets messed up, like the content of the browser covers my keyboard and it's just messy. It was known to be glitchy, I don't know any fix for it yet. Experienced this also while viewing videos on youtube. The playback bar would get stuck on the browser the whole time until I close it with task manager and start again.
I disabled the "Turn over to mute" and "Turn over to activate" settings under Settings > Gestures and i would swear my phone is actually performing better than what it was. Can anyone confirm this for me?
It could be a placebo but I notice it. I had already turned off flip to snooze on mine but left flip to mute on. I had lag when changing from Chrome back to the Homescreen prior to turning off the flip to mute setting. After turning it off it did not lag. In an attempt to recreate the issue I cleared the memory and did it again with no apps running in the background as a baseline and had lag with flip to mute on vs off when going from Chrome back to the homescreen. Also tested it when opening and scrolling through the app drawer. I can't wait for 5.1 update, if it comes...
After switching to Apex launcher, and turning off the other two gestures in the Settings, I have had no instances of missed double taps. It was pretty reliable to begin with, but yes, I was noticing some drops. But those are now gone.
I know everyone is complaining of UI lag - which is indeed present. However I decided to do a more real world test. I loaded up WatchESPN, OSMonitor, Play Store,
Gmail, Firefox (with Engadget open), Two camera apps, Hangouts, Play Newsstand, HBO Go, Google Photos, ES File Explorer, N7 Music Player, YouTube and MX Player. After loading all these up one after another, I started Nokia Here Maps - and asked it to locate an address on the other side of town and compute point to point directions to it. It took what seemed like a blink of an eye, and it was back with the route. I then turned WiFi off ( so that it cannot hand over the task to a server in the cloud ) , and asked it to compute another route, and again it was back within a second, with multiple route alternatives. So - to me - this is a more real life use case - I will actually be using the device a lot in this fashion - and for that - it is performing quite well. In general I have noticed that the UI lag does not get worse with the number of apps loaded. So when it come to real heavy lifting, I think the device is doing pretty well .
There is a YouTube video out there today, which is claiming that the Alcatel did better than a Galaxy S6 in running multiple 3D games simultaneously. I will myself never play any games on this device . For my applications - I find the performance satisfactory. Of course, this clearly has all the 5.0 performance issues, which I am hoping will clear up with 5.1 / 5.2 update.
You may want to go under developer options and try things such as disabled the animation scales or lowering them from 1.0 to .5 and possibly enabling gpu decoding of 2d content.....disabling the animation will give the ui response a bit of snappiness.
If you are running nova launcher it has it's own animation settings under "look and feel" and you can choose the "faster than light" option....I disable all the animations...I'm interested in gettings things done..not gimicks and "flash". I'm sure apex has similar settings.

I already have animations down to 0.5 - I am not touching anything else there. Apex has a setting to speed up some animations as well.
What is a good way to test the browser ? I am using Firefox - with adblock plus.

When the phone is rooted I'll use adaway....what exactly do you want to "test"? I use lightning+ browser(lightning browser (without the +) is free) which is always nice and snappy.
I've found, that turning of the OS "vibrate" on tap functions seems to have improved performance for me. At the very least it feels better. I feel like i was getting 2 different vibrations when using keyboard, and it would double tap things by accident as a result. You also need to independently turn off vibration on the keyboard if you want it gone completely.
Has anyone noticed that transition animation scale keeps on reverting back to 1x after it has been set to 0.5x ? Does this qualify as a bug ? Or is there something I am missing ?
BTW - even with the third party launcher, I am getting unresponsive double-tap ( wake only ) occasionally, and unset/set the option always brings it back. This is something that Alcatel should be able to fix - clearly a software issue.

Has anyone found a fix for this? Mine does this as well, resetting the transition scale!
Thanks

Never had that problem, I've been using nova prime and double tap to wake works perfectly.

Hi everyone!
So I've recently purchased a Mate 9 and while I absolutely adore most aspects of the phone, there's a high number of crashes every day that keeps bugging me.
Ever since I got it (like literally Day 1) it has been crashing on like 80% of all game launches (tested with a dozen of games, it happened randomly and not with distinct games for example), on around 50% of all landscape rotations in photo apps, on like 20% of all landscape rotations and lastly, on around 10% of camera usage and viewing.
I'd assume it is an issue with the gyro sensor being buggy or whatever because it basically is limited to the screen's rotation but I'm not sure.
Did anyone else experience this? Does anyone know how to fix this?
My Mate 9 has the most recent firmware, is neither rooted nor equipped with a custom ROM - I'd prefer to not just factory reset it, so if you have any ideas on how to avoid that, I'd be very thankful! <3
Had bunch of problems on my 432, like voice command problems, Google Calendar sync issues and similar. Factory reset and installing Google calendar fixed them all.
I'm currently on build 47.1.A.12.34 Oreo 8.0.
Occasionally and randomly, my xzp just keeps getting micro stutters (e.g. Scrolling is not smooth, screen transitions are not smooth) every few seconds. It's actually very annoying as a user to see it switch from smooth to stuttery every few seconds.
Anyone else experiencing this?

yes I am, i thought its due to the 4k mod (too much to bare) but i dont really know maybe if youre on 4k, could be the problem i guess
Trying opening up developer menu and turning the animation speed up for faster animation
I have the same problem whit xzp. I asked on Italian Sony community and there are few person whit this problem. I guess than is a hardware issue.
i had the issue
but after clean flashing rom
i have not any problem at all
I use to have this problem until I unlocked my bootloader and ran Turbo ROM. No more problems for me. Dunno if you wanna go that route
The problem is google play Services. Just did a factory reset and didn't allow g. P. S. To UPDATE and was smooth. I think google does this with intention.... Scrolling in chrome, facebook and other apps is a nightmare
The problem was google play services and play store, they are both updating very fast when you first open the device as new. Disabling them is the key.
Now I am trying to see which version from apk mirror works...
For me the issue was rezolved by doing this:
1. Clean fix with XC
2. Disable Play Store and Google Play Services
3. Install both from apk mirror, latest versions, arm64 android 8, 320 dpi (it will reenable auto)
4. Disable in Chrome/flags some stuff regarding scrolling.
The problem is back! Either Sony changed default cpu governor settings with the new update which makes it even laggier, either google is doing the dirty job with play services or other software.
This phone was a rocket and now it feels like crap.
Tryed Bromite chrome web based browser and same sh...t
Any suggestions?
