Scrolling smoothness - Honor 9 Real Life Review

Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the Honor 9 under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

KIRIN960 does the job, smooth as butter

Sooooo smooth right here.

This cannot get any smoother than this.

Not facing any scrolling lags..
Scrolling is smooth for me..

Scrolling is perfect no lag and problem.
B180
For scrooling lag and bugs on software and lower worked at phone set last stable version on Firmware Finder and:
FIX IS THIS ->
1) First we need to power off / turn off device
2) When the device is powered off, press and hold for 10-15 sec Power button + Volume up key ( upper part of the volume button )
3) The device vibrates, and once the Honor logo appears release keys
4) Device will go intro a Recovery Menu with 3 possible option ( Reboots System Now , Wipe data / Factory reset and Wipe cache partition )
5) Select 3rd option Wipe cache partition ( this will only take 5 sec to do and the same recovery menu will appear )
6) Then select factory reset.
7) After this is done , select the 1st option Reboot system now.
Let us know if this issue was solved.
Best regards,

Try Proto Kernel, i think it will be better...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/kernel-proto8-kernel-t3780551/page60

Ok, thank you. I will give it little reading. ?

I understand what you are saying. Even if you have the device now or not,I think this will help others.
Go to developer options in Honor phone. Scroll down to smallest width option. Change it to 380-420 range whatever suits you. You'll see faster scrolling and smoother as well.

Thank you very much, it works

Scrolling smoothness is always good on the higher end kirin devices. The Honor 9 does really well on websites like reddit ect.

[Q] General Interface Lag

Hello everyone!
I have just received a brand new T-mobile branded Z3. I am coming from a Nexus 5 which I absolutely loved minus the camera and battery life. So far I am really enjoying the Z3 and most everything seems to run great, other then just general interface navigation. It seems that scrolling, web surfing, facebook, or anything that requires lots of scrolling, just seems to be extremely laggy compared to my Nexus 5. I have tried Nova, Google Now Launcher, Stock Xperia Launcher, and everything just seems to have general lagginess about it.
Does anyone experience this as well? If so, any suggestions for what I might try? I'm not running in stamina mode and see no difference in general interface performance between the two modes. I really want to enjoy everything that the Z3 has, but the lag is getting to me and maybe I am just expecting too much. Thanks in advance for any details or suggestions.
Seems pretty fluid till now, no lag here.
Seems odd have you tried a full reset?

Yea, I find it odd as well. I am proceeding with a full factory reset to see if this helps out a bit. I will report back. Thanks for your suggestion.
No lag at all for me, although I have the standard D6603 model, but I am running go launcher ex which is quite intensive - what's your running/outstanding RAM within the apps section of the settings menu? I'm also running CM (Clean Master) Battery which gives you an option to close the most recent app within that app's settings. It's a one click feature that flashes up whenever you exit anything that doesn't close automatically, and it's not overly intrusive.
Did you disable triple tap to zoom? Mine was off by default but some had it enabled and it caused lags.

Well, I performed a factory reset and that seems to have helped and my battery is noticeably even better from what it was, which was already great. It appears that triple tap to zoom is disable for me. Thanks for the suggestion!
Glad things worked out.

Mess around buggy Marshmallow update for Moto G 2015

Hi everyone, moto global
Not a surprise in such a short time after Moto G 2016 has been updated to MM 6.0 internet is flooded with complaints. I had my update in UK for around a week now.
I have manufactory reset device since then twice due to following reasons and which did not solve the problem :
I am literally fuming because new update took everything away that made this phone super phone.
1) Battery time got much worse, neither my habits changed nor apps I use. I would say by 30% .
Simple browsing and reading drains 40% just in one hour.
2) Other thing is display touch issues.No matter how gentle or harder I press my finger or use fro same purpose other thinkers display thinks I want to open link, photo, jump into other page. In general open something or anything that is possible on current page. That happens flickering finger up normal speed , slower ,or faster doesn't matter.
There is clearly an issue because I had none of it while phone was on Lollipop.
3) I also noticed phone is slower opening apps, getting in and out of app , inside browser loading time got longer.
4) Why on earth would Moto not allow to downgrade it to Lollipop? I don't care you have MM6 I want to get back to Lollipop until you sort out mess around buggy MM.
......
What problems do you have?
People, please, stop exercising your flashing, roming muscle and how cool you are at that. This thread is for identifying actual/present problem on MM based Moto G 2015 .
The issue with the behavior of the touch screen is what really gets to me. I scroll and let my finger of the screen and it registers that as a press and opens some link if my finger happens to be over one as I lift it off.
I have two decent ways of reproducing some of my issues with the screen (being able to reliably reproduce problems is paramount if you want to report problems).
1. Go to http://www.msnbc.com/videos . Scroll a bit down the page and then move your finger rapidly up and down. No issue. It follows your finger perfectly. Now start playing a video on the page and try again. At least to me, after a fairly short while it simply stops moving and no longer registers my touch. I can lift my finger and put it back down and now it moves again. There's no freaking way playing a video should have priority in the kernel over keeping track of my touches. I get it's not the fastest phone in the world and i would be fine with a lot of lagging. But don't just "forget" i have my finger on the screen. Something is very clearly wrong. Not exactly sure how this was in lollipop, but I'm noticing a lot of touch screen issues in marshmallow.
2. If I scroll to the top of my app drawer (by moving my finger down) and try to scroll even further (which obviously I can't) it often takes the place where I lift my finger as a press and opens that app. If anyone can confirm this kind of behavior it will.be eaiser to go to Motorola with this
I erased the stock rom and put CM12.1 ... Solved my problems!

1. I have this issue to though it takes me quite a few times to move my thumb up and down before it freezes.
2. " and try to scroll even further (which obviously I can't) it often takes the place where I lift my finger as a press and opens that app" that's exactly what I have on facebook, androidauthority etc. Instead of page gliding further it registers finger as for press. This issue is so obvious on my phone. I can reproduce it fairly easy.

You can downgrade to Lollipop 5.1.1 from Marshmallow..
Upgraded my Moto G 2015 to MM and had same issues like yours so I decided to downgrade to Lollipop and battery life is awesome in Lollipop... 5+ hours Screen on Time.

Once you upgraded to MM factory resetting will not downgrade...
You have to manually flash the firmwares files for Moto G 2015 Lollipop
I am also suffering from the touch issue
I tried downgrading but it fails to write the bootloader, etc. Some detailed instructions on how to do this using fastboot would be awesome...
Can you downgrade to 5.1.1 without an unlocked bootloader?
And since the ghost input issue seems to be a software issue, can't we just tweak it somehow?
I don't experience the same issues. I really like MM, but I don't think that is much better or different from LL. But I think I have better battery, better image and no touch issues. Performance doesn't appear much different.
I upgraded from OTA and have a XT1541. Did a factory reset after the upgrade.
This upgrade to android 6.0 on my Moto g 3rd gen is killing me
- Random bouts of slowness, if it had a hard drive with spindles I'm sure I would hear it ticking away constantly
- lag when typing into search bar etc
- lag when hitting home button
- the unintended link-clicking thing when simply browsing a webpage is infuriating especially considering how SLOW it is to bring up the link then go back because you don't bloody want it opened I. The first place. aGhHHHhG!!!! ajdfhaahbs#!&#@[email protected]
- I've started receiving low battery warnings on a daily basis when I have in general not considered battery EVER during the day with this phone
- apps have been crashing or constantly bringing up the dialogue box about not responding and wait/kill it
- Gmail notification is inconsistent - I'm not getting status bar notifications for all new email, can't find a pattern - does work sometimes
Basically what was a decent phone has now turned into a P.O.S
What is actually better about MM ?
I want to downgrade to Lollipop - considering I'm taking matters into my own hands is Lollipop the best option?
Whats the best way to safely flash the phone to proposed O/S? Link to approved method please and THANKS

The factory reset should have resolved most your issues. Did it not help?

I did twice. Didn't work for me. Now I did hard reset. Just signed in with my google account and nothing else. Not even updating apps . Will give a couple of days and see what's happening.
I can confirm after few days of hard reset issues persist. Sending phone back.

I have problems with touchscreen too. I've documented them here: https://youtu.be/_hMp9vb2WUI
Same here. Touchscreen is driving me crazy since i updated my xt1541 to stock MM.
Specially when i scroll up/down but the phone reacts as if i clicked. (factory reset and wiping cache didn't solve the issue).
i fixed the issue wirh touch screen by just removing the screen protector (glass)

I have exactly the same problem. I think is related to the size of finger. Also at mine moto g, with the app that you used in your video, using 2 inch i having the problem, using the indices no So, with smaller touched area the problem not appear
About the ghost touch, i have no idea what they have combined in motorola, but seems that the touch is "software" managed (like a 3d render made by the cpu instead of gpu), and it seems that with the cpu under stress the problem worsens, and problably this is why it does not always happen.
I made another test: if you enable developer option and you activate the cursor position option (i don't know if is the exact english name, i'm italian), with 3 touch have a huge lag, with 4 is impossible to draw cursor positions. About this test i don't know if is a problem of touch or is a problem of developers tools. Is necessary to check with another android 6 smartphone.
I also found another bug about the energy saving. Yesterday, when the battery has dropped below 15%, the energy saving has been activated automatically, as i set, but after connecting the charger it is not deactivated. I had to repeatedly juggle with the power saving enabling option to disable it (notification bar and buttons bar still remained red even with the power saving option turned off). Today I realized that the phone lags so obscene and discovered that, although it was not notified of the power saving mode, only 1 core was active with variable frequency. I had to again turn on and off the power saving mode to have all the core active (in cpu-z the governor was ever interactive but with only cpu0 active before re enable and disable power saving mode). Some happened this thing?
F...k, i was so glad I bought a motorola moto g i hope they solve these problems.

sometimes scrolling in setting menu or google chrome is not smooth for few miliseconds at first time to touch the screen and scroll
for trying to see you have this issue or not
when you are in setting menu or web browsing with google chrome (it may be exist on other apps)
wait about 5 seconds and do not touch anything ( if i scrolling without wait for few seconds i have not this problem but when i wait for few seconds the problem exist!)
then start to scroll slowly

do a few times and different times this test ( wait some seconds - then scroll)

touch scroll delayed responsiveness?

I'm testing my new honor view 10, I'm loving it except for the delay in the scroll. the finger need to slide 4mm before the scroll follows the movement.
this happens on all apps and uis.
Upon checking the display pointer option in the dev menu, touch is registered, it's just the screen not scrolling straight away.
are you experiencing the same? how do you improve scroll responsiveness?
I'm on bkl-l09

Enable glove setting.. In display, Makes it crisp and fast
thanks, I'll check it out.
meanwhile I found this thread, it might be an emui widespread issue
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...touchscreen-latency-lag-delay-t3774567/page12
Updated to latest firmware c140 in the uk, factory reset, no improvement.
glove mode not much improvement.
it's not a big deal, the delay is perhaps 2-3mm with glove mode and 4-5mm without.
and it's definitely software as draw pointer under dev options shows a responsive touch.
I might keep it, it's no biggie and love everything else, what are your experiences regarding it?
multitouch tester shows a noticeable lag.
this is not noticeable in my 3.5yo motox 2ndgen.
the lag is on par with the one experienced on the p20 pro.
considering updates or lack thereof I'm thinking of returning it.
again it's a software issue I believe.
some think related to oreo 8.0 and 8.1

Enable developer option and set all animation scale to 0.5 x
thx, I might be wrong, but I believe to have tried changing animation scale before.
Anyway it's going back, lovely phone, I just never fully felt in love with it. thx anyway
I'm experiencing this too. I got a Mate SE that doesn't have any lag when scrolling. Yet here is this device with a way better chipset and there is stuttering when scrolling
I suggest you to try a custom rom (lineage or whatever), i'm not experiencing this issue.
Had the same with my honor 10 and I suspect it is the knuckle gestures. Since I switched those off everything runs smoothly!

Software (ease of use, features, etc)

When you hand your phone to granny to take a photo of you, can she get the job done? Rate this thread to express how you deem the OnePlus 6T's camera software. A higher rating indicates that the software is easy to use, fast, uncluttered, and inclusive of advanced features for when you need them.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
On my offical 48+ hours with the OP6T. Having issues setting up face unlock the phone is keeping me in the loop of entering pin/pattern and not opening the face unlock settings, maybe update or software glitch patch. just reset the phone after a full 39+ hour discharge and recharge of the battery, any help with the issue would be great.
I will give it points for the pro mode but outside of that, I find it could use a few more features. If the V40 camera app comes to the V30, I'm going back to it.
Split screen button is unnecessarily hidden under 3 dots on the multitasking screen. This option should be easy access there could be even a gest available for split screen

True. I'm not a Huawei fan but I like their knuckle gestures a lot. Swiping with the knuckle from left to right or view versa enters split screen mode for example.

You can set up the split screen shortcut under the navigation 'buttons' ie home button
I set my split screen shortcut as a home button long press
One plus 6T is good rather than other phones in its software and configuration.
Normally my Camera opens "instantly".
I encounter from time to time that my camera takes more than a second to start. It's a really fast phone, so what's the probleme here?
I got used to reliability on my OnePlus 5T. 6T is, well, lackluster. I need to reboot it at least once per day. hyperion takes ages to open and the screen is frozen in the meantime. Bluetooth... I am using 5-6 bt devices, and only 4 are on the list when you change volume. Weirdly, it's the disconnected ones, not the ones I am actually using. Sometimes the sound will just ignore BT and go through the phone speaker no matter what it's set to do - another reboot needed. Last weekend Sygic (satnav) crashed so badly the phone went black. No reaction. After holding all the buttons for 10 sec it rebooted to safe mode. Another reboot to normal, and all my settings, launcher, were gone.
Honestly, I want to love it. I do. But I actually hate it. Too bad I already gave my op5t to my daughter. It was soo much better.
Wow, today it just lost audio on voice calls. Why? Because previously I've been casting to a TV. So when the call came the stupid thing didn't know where to reroute audio. So after a while it decided f**k this, it's probably nothing important anyway.
only fixed by reboot. God I hate this phone!
I'm on stable 10 by the way.
I'm really happy with my OP 6T, just wished the camera was better.
I mean come on the secondary camera is only used for depth effect, so is only active in portrait mode...
The only other issue I have is the ambient display doesn't activate as it should imo, only a "hard pick up" will get it to switch on.
