Whenever I borrow a friend's Android phone, including one of my friend's new Droid X, the homescreen always takes at least half a second before it registers my finger page swipe.
Why are ALL Android phones like this? Why can't they make this right?
If Apple is successful with their endeavors to detect jailbroken phones and shut them down, would you consider switching to an Android handset for your next smartphone?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have two identical Galaxy S6 Edge and the default icons (i.e. messages, email, gallery etc.) look completely different. Mine is the standard icons and the other has smaller more "bubbly" looking icons. I've tried searching for a fix on the web but nothing has worked so far. I've seen you should be able to edit icons by long holding them down but this doesn't work.
I have screenshots of both...
It appears no one is developing apps for BB anymore. Will BB's OS 10 be able to run Android apps? I ask this because I understand those with Mac computers can run Windows programs. Will BB apps designed for OS 5, 6, or 7 run on BB10?

Pics from iOS phones are fine, but nothing from other Android phones work at all...is this a bad setting. On my side? Nexus 5 with all apps updated to current.
Ever notice that you can swipe the homescreen either left or right where all the widgets disappears and you are left with an empty homescreen. I know it looks like you are just hiding the icons, and when you press options, you return to original homescreen.
But the question is, why didn't nokia introduce multiple homescreens in the first place. Its obvious that it can be done. The N97 could have been such a powerful device, worthy of the title of 'flagship' but nokia really dropped the ball here.
Everything happens for a reason, check out my blog:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have only just got an xperia play today,and I find it a good phone. Only problem is the screen will occasionally Spaz out.It will move independently jumping to different homescreens, even activating stuff on them.At first I thought it was the screen protector that I put on but I've removed it but it had done it once since then.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a iphone 3g not 3gs. I am jailbroken and unlocked on 3.1.2. I need to have the unlocked since I use T-Mobile. Lately, the phone has been really buggy and lags a lot. I have restored it a few times already, but after a few months the phone will eventually begin lagging. After some research, people said that it could be a file that was backed up causing the lag. I was thinking about restore to 3.1.2 and not perform a backup of anything. Would this be the best solution? Can I still restore to 3.1.2 using a custom firmware? or Should I just delete all my programs and see if that fixes the issue? Is there any other reasons why the phone would lag?

So my contract is up and it's time to upgrade from my Nexus 4, but I'm cheap and don't need leading edge technology, and one of the devices I'm looking at is the G3 (the other is the Nexus 5). Reviews that I've seen have been overwhelmingly positive, but two problems that I've seen mentioned are:
Lag can be an issue. The device is susceptible to over heating.The thing is, the reviews I've read are months old, so, are these still problems for the G3, or have they been fixed?
Also, as I'm used to the PureAndroid™ experience of the Nexus 4, how is the interface of the G3 out of the box? I've had a chance to play around with one at the store, and it seems fine, but I'm not the type who wants to tinker too much.
So ive been with the Galaxy since the S3, and each one ends up becoming the same. They are great when i first get them, then within the first 2 months, they pretty much turn into crap. The UI isnt smooth, things take a while to open, apps dont transition to another smoothly, opening texts,, going back and forth between texts and apps arent the best and i constantly get problems to the point i need to do a warranty exchange with tmobile.
Even with a rooted phone i experience the same. Whenever i test out my friends iphone, everything seems to be super quick and fluid, just not customizable and limited to what you can do..What can i do to improve my phone or this is just how these galaxies are?
I've seen than HTC phones with similar features than Nokia or Motorola cell phones for instance are cheaper.. Why is that?? For instance HTC Touch Viva is cheaper than Nokia 5800, Nokia 6790 or Motorola MOTOZINE ZN5... Why is that? What are HTC phones disadvantages compared with other brands phones?

I'm assuming it's a combo of the proximity/light sensor and/or the second screen waking...

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have the AT&T 32GB variant.
I noticed that sometimes (actually, somewhat frequently) the animation to open the app drawer is a little choppy and laggy. And then the actual app drawer (swiping left and right) also has slightly choppy animation as it moves from each page of apps.
This goes away if you press home, and then return back to the app drawer.
I am just wondering if I have bad phone or it is fine? My phone starts lagging after few minutes of use (when it gets warmer). It is not bad, but everything is launching slower and I see more FPS drops in animations..
View 1 Replies View Relatedis there a workaround or a build that gets rid of the laggy keyboard, especially the alt/symbol key that freezes the keyboard for a second each time you press it? Its fine after a reboot, but after 12h, somehow it really slows down typing.
View 7 Replies View RelatedYes another complaint about the Satio. Sony Ericsson make believe. Is that what the SE R&D team do? Make themselves believe that the satio is good enough to go on sale? At what point did somebody at SE decide that a seriously laggy UI was ok? At what point did somebody at SE decide that software that crashes is good enough to be sold as a flagship model? At what point did somebody at SE decide that a second hand Nokia OS that isn't compatible with so many Nokia applications was a good Idea?
At what point did somebody at SE decide that a battery that nearly lasts 24 hours if your lucky is acceptable when there are higher capacity alternatives? These are only the basic problems. Seriously Sony Ericsson what were you doing when you thought that this phone was ready for launch? Racing against another manufacturer, " We need to release a new model quick! I've had a Sony Ericsson phone for the past five years but this is my last.
is it smooth or laggy? sorry for a dumb question just wanna sure what im buying is good
