Dear all I am experiencing horrible animation lag in my s7 lock screen I experience this after update to nougat update before 2 months. I am in Australia. The lag is experienced when I expand WhatsApp messages (like to read the message in lock screen itself) and then pressing back key will result in a buggy lagging animation. I tried clearing my phone cache in recovery but it still didn't work. Can anyone help me to solve this issue? Also sometimes the dialer takes longer time to launch. Thank you

Received this phone (THL W8S) 5 days ago, and straight out of the box it has had a serious issue where the phone will lock up, the screen will fade slowly to black, and then reboot itself. The problem occurs both after factory resetting AND in safe mode.
The phone is unrooted and running the stock ROM.
Basically during use, the screen suddenly becomes unresponsive to touch and the physical buttons (home, volume, power) all stop functioning. As soon as the phone locks up this way, the screen slowly fades to black over about 60 seconds, at which point I have to leave it to fade completely before it reboots itself.
It happens most frequently when using any browser (stock, or otherwise) taking from less than 5 seconds to around 5min before the random lock up occurs) but also happens when scrolling through messages; scrolling through emails in either of the stock apps; using a compass app which came pre-installed (very quickly).
Initially I thought it might have to do with WiFi, but problem also cropped up with WiFi off, using 2/3G. Then in troubleshooting also managed to get it to happen using the camera (lot of motion, and repeatedly taking snaps).
Also odd is that the batteries I received in the box were generic black ones, not the official stamped/logo'ed THL ones I've seen on every website and every unboxing of this particular phone. So while there's a possibility this may be a battery issue, the fact that the phone hasn't done this while using a more battery draining app (Beach Buggy Blitz; Rayman Jungle Run) makes me think this is a deeper hardware fault related to , although I don't know enough about voltages and such to rule it out completely.
I have a couple videos showing the problem, but unfortunately I'm not allowed to put the links here. Should both be easily found by searching:

Hello, I wanted to inform you that lately the reboot occur concurrently with application updates.
They are like your impressions.
Best regards
THL W8S the screen fade and reboot too!!
Hello!
I received the phone on 12 September. The screen faded from the first minutes of use. Yesterday I came three times. In "THL mobile store" recommend updating the firmware. But the update I have not found anywhere.
any suggestions
Thank you very much in advance.
I have had my nexus 5 for 7 months without a single issue. I'm running a Sabermod Slimkatbuild and have been for a month with Uber kernel and just today had a issue with screen stuttering. I have had no issues to date. I was flying when this all started so phone was in airplane mode I was listening to music with Play Music from my menova usb otg and typing in quick office. My keyboard and navigation bar started stuttering in and out. I stopped all apps and rebooted and it continues in landscape and portrait on every screen from the boot animation to the app drawer. The only screen it doesn't appear on is the google initial splash screen. I have wiped cache and dalvik and restored a nandroid. Issue persists. The best way i can describe the issue is it appears that my screen size keeps changing and navigation bar rises up from the bottom of the screen overlapping the first one it also effects the widgets keyboard and pattern unlock. I am in the process of downloading the factory images to wipe the device and start fresh but am still trying to figure out what caused this.
Ok after flashing factory images the stutter still appears. It looks like it is the hardware issue I was afraid of and will be starting RMA.
After installing Lollipop, everything became unbearably slow. I've tried flashing multiple ROMs, both Lollipop and Kitkat, but everything remains so slow: the actual boot-up process and the ROM itself. Does anybody have any ideas about what can be done about this? In fastboot I see hammerhead D820(H) 32GB; HW version rev_11; Bootloader version HHZ12d, Baseband M8974A-2.0.50.2.22. Lock state is unlocked. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated!
Wipe cache and see if that helps and disable Chrome's integration into the app switcher. Also get rid of Facebook and FB Messenger.

Instead of Lollypop try some LSD
Thanks. But it is that slow even before any of these apps are loaded (e.g. after I do a factory reset and flash a new rom). Is it possible that Lollipop did sthg to the hardware? If so, how could I find out? Just to give you an idea about how slow exactly it is: when I am typing 5 letters at normal speed, it takes until the fifth letter before the first letter actually displays on the screen. I should also note that when the screen goes off, I can no longer get it on again without a reboot...
I'm still trying to figure out what this might be. I first thought my problems were similar to those that others have described, but I now think they be different. Here are some of the issues I'm encountering:
when I boot up the phone (whether in kitkat or lollipop), the initial android (animation sequence is already incredibly slow
there are all sorts of strange things happening with my screen. When it goes to sleep in Android, I can not wake it up anymore. When it goes to sleep in recovery, and I push the power button, the screen goes (again after some time) from pitch dark to a slightly 'lit' dark, but it never displays anything, and I have to reboot again to get the info on the screen. Also, the screen is even slow in twrp - when I swipe to do a factory reset, for instance, there is also a noticeable lag.
I have tried with various ROMs (both stock and not); with ART and Dalvik, etc. but none of these changes seem to affect the slow screen issues
Does anybody have any ideas about what the problem might be? I should also add that we had the screen replaced a few months ago - could that have something to do with it?

Probably the replacement screen has been reconnected poorly. There's nothing you can do on software side, for me, it's more like a hardware problem.
Hello,
Im having a strange issue after the 5.1 update on my nexus 5. If I unlock the screen and click on an app, the screen does a weird refresh. After having a close look it almost looks like the home screen is moving down and the app i have clicked on is moving over it. A bit hard to explain and it is cosmetic but looks very ugly.
On occasion when i have received a whatsapp notification, and i double click on the notification from the lock sreen, enter my pattern, the screen will go black and think about what it is trying to do for a second, whatapp will not be displayed and the homescreen will be displayed instead, where as before this procedure would take me to the whatsapp message screen
Wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue ? any fix ? Many thanks
Hi
On my 3a i have a very laggy appswitcher, you know when swiping up and hold for a sec, it lags a lot, but suddenly today it was very fluid, and the i restartet the phone and its laggy again.
anyone have thos problem ? maybe i should reset and see if it helps.
Similar problem. Appswitcher is very buggy. Not laggy, but sometimes it freezes for a short time or doesn't work at all.
I updated to Android 10 via system->OTA (Magisk OTA howto)
yeah it's been all over the place throughout the beta process. thought it would be tighter by now but i'm still having a lot of random behaviour with it. sometimes i'll swipe up and the screen will just be blank? anyway i guess we just have to watch and wait.
