Whenever I receive a text or Google hangouts message, I normally pull down the notification Menu and tap the message to take me to the chat (within Google hangouts app). I've noticed when accessing a message from the notification panel, there is very long lag/delay until the actually message opens up. Anyone know what might be causing this ?

I've noticed this too, it was also happening to me on the s6 edge.
Its the way that Samsung has its memory management set up. It basically closes the app and when you relaunch it, it has to start up fresh. Same thing happens if you start up an app normally, hit the home button and try going back into the app. Especially if its a larger app like a game. The phone closes it out to keep the system memory free. If you are rooted, try this, will probably fix the issue for you guys http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/arter97-kernel-galaxy-note-5-t3189907

With hardware like this I'm shocked that it has this issue. My nexus 5 blazes through app switching and notifications with no lag, maybe a software patch will come in the future.

I totally agree. My Nexus 6 had no issues either.
This is actually caused by the 5 second delay built into Android. Basically, there's a 5 second window after pressing Home (from another app) that the system won't launch/open an activity (opening Hangouts after pressing Home and then tapping a notification from the drawer). It goes as far back as 1.6: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4536
Here's an Xposed module to prevent the 5 second delay: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/stopswitchdelay-remove-5s-delay-to-apps-t2688574

Is any experiencing some lag?
Like while i'm in the messaging app, when I want to go back or close the application, it takes about 2 seconds.
While with the stock ROM, it happens almost instantly.
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but for some reason Force GPU Rendering was on in the Dev section.
I'll update once I figure out if this fixes the problem.

Not if you exit properly with the back button. There is a lag if you exit with Home button. It is giving you time to do the doubleclick for S-voice or what ever app double click is set for. Exiting with home button also leaves app running in mutitask therefore eating battery. Exiting with back button kills app but moves to multitask as a recent app if you want to go back to it but it is not using resources and does not eat battery.

S Voice is disabled, so when I double click the home button, it won't bring it up. Therefore that's not an issue.
It might have been the Force GPU Rendering that is causing the problem.
Will update again.
Is the force GPU rendering supposed to be on? Mine was on...? Never touched it before so...

So I disabled Force GPU Render and everything seems to be back to normal.
I'm not sure why, but some settings were enabled when I installed SynergyROM r73
Well.. only the GPU render and USB debug, unknown source which should be on.
I've been having this problem for a long time, accross different devices and OS's.
The thing is that, sometimes, if I exit an app using the back button, instead of going to the homescreen I'm sent to other apps that had been previously open (but also closed). Pressing the back button again in whatever app it opened, would often take me to other apps until I finally get the homescreen.
This doesn't happen all the time, but it is quite often and annoying.
Any Idea what can this be about and how to fix it?
I'm using Nova Launcher (prime), which I suspect may have something to do with it.
Thanks in advance.

This happens to me, too, on occasion. It seems that it always happens if I launch an app directly from the app I'm currently using, and with certain apps, every once in a while, I get what you're getting. My solution has been to use the app ATK, or Advanced Task Killer. It's simple to use - just kill apps when you're done using them - and it also drastically lengthens my battery life. I'd highly recomend it.
Hi all,
I recently installed the 5.1 GPE ROM and noticed that apps close unexpected, usually when they are in the background but sometimes when I am still using them. For example, the most annoying thing that happens it that I will be using the Facebook chat heads and suddenly either the overlay will close or the entire Messenger app will close. If I try to open it again from the app switcher, a dialogue saying "Unable to open Messenger" will pop up and I have to launch it again from the home screen. I also have an IRC app that I usually leave running in the background. After anywhere between 10 minutes and an hour, the app will close and the icon will disappear from the notification bar. The two given examples usually happen at the same time; it's almost like having an overzealous app killer.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Exclude app from "clear all" on Recent Apps screen after 2016-03-15 OTA update?
On the 2016-03-15 OTA update they added the "clear all" button to the Recent Apps screen. Unfortunately it also kills the Alarm Clock Xtreme process and the alarm no longer works.
Is there a way to exclude certain apps from being killed?

Same thing here! especially with whats app, i do a close all or swipe and it closes the foreground and background task, i just want foreground to be off. This cause me to not receive me notification UNTIL i open the app, i have no issues with this on my lg or galaxy. On the Blu there's a press and hold option on the recent apps, but when you hold it it just goes back to the previous screen. Am I missing something here? Ive had nothing but hell with the phone and especially with the 504 error, which they fixed, but that took WAY too long. And dont let me get started with customer support!
Update - Started seeing issue with 3rd party keyboards, i prefer swiftkey as my go to. And when i swipe the app close, after i have set my keyboard it constantly defaults. this was not present on the previous update. I thought the 504 error was bad but this cuts the cake. Very very frustrating!!! My workaround was to disable every keyboard even system to allow it to run. I guess the recent apps is broke, need to be corrected!
you can install system manager .apk and system manager sdk.apk from gionee E8 ,
I have posted it before on another thread after install it . you can hold on clear buttom it i'll open process white list add any thing want to not close.
Me too i Started seeing issue with 3rd party keyboards, i always use swiftkey. But the dam keyboard set constantly to defaults after the update. Even worst some time the key board set to touchpal that i unable to get rid off, this was not present on the previous update.
Hi everyone, ever since the update, my apps stop running in the background when I close the app. Example: I don't get Whatsapp notifications anymore unless I open the app and keep it open. If I close all open apps, I will no longer receive any of the notifications for any of them.
I went into the battery settings disabled battery saver mode but that didn't do anything.
I would appreciate any help you could provide.

It's apparently one of the issues with the latest OTA update, where closing all running apps will terminate the background processes associated with the apps closed. Prior to the update and the Close All button being added to the recent apps list, I don't think it had this problem (I don't use Whatsapp, but my Skype and Discord notifications still come through even if I don't have them on my recent apps list).
This is a little frustrating. Noticed that I wasn't getting any notifications from tasker, pushover, textra, hangouts, inbox and etc.
Also noticed that pushover will not update unless it is off of wifi. All my other devices receive notifications on this wifi. IE nothing blocked.
I have had to open all the programs that I want to receive notifications from, open. Not the best work around.

I noticed that on occasion there will be small text under the new button that says "long press to set up apps that could run in the background" I do it but it doesn't seem to do anything, maybe free up some of the RAM but that's about it. I'm wondering if there is a bug and if it's supposed to show something.
Has anyone else tried the long press?
As of now all I do is keep a folder on the desktop labeled background apps. It helps big time when I accidentally tap the close all button. But my solution as of now is to keep things open that don't seem to work in the background. I've been experimenting with what works and it seems like in some recent app updates they begin to work without being open. I know for sure that facebook and now facebook messenger work without being open, as well as some google services. I have a memory clearer app that I use when I'm not using my phone so it clears whatever it can without killing the apps. But that's what I have as of now, trial and error to figure out what I need to leave open and what I can close. And I strongly recommend the folder, I have had many times where I accidentally close everything and forget what I had to leave open.
It's a bummer though, I just bought the phone and then this update came out. Kinda kills the excitement of getting a new awesome phone if I have to deal with this frustration :/ Other than that, it's definately a nice step up from a Samsung S4.

does it misbehave after rebooting? or all the time?

Misbehave as in not show anything after a long press?
Yes, nothing happens anytime I try it. After reboot, the first time I pull up the running apps is when I get the prompt. After the first long press after a reboot, the prompt is gone. If I have an app open and then I do the long press, I am taken back to the desktop, but no matter what I try, nothing seems to happen after the long press other than being taken back to the desktop if I had an app open.
I have the same issue, I thought it was a Internet connection issue (see my thread) but after digging deeper realised my background apps werent running after closing them and the long press option does nothing.
I have the same problem. Any solution?

I've just installed the new update and it looks like the issues I had with background apps closing when clearing all apps has been fixed. I've got no apps running in the foreground yet can see Whatsapp, Fitbit, etc still running and I'm receiving notifications for them.
