Ever since I flashed EB01 I have been having problems with screen responsiveness, It will seem to work fine then after awhile will work selectively.
When I had voodoo installed, it started to do it I was running superclean 2.4
I flashed today back to EB01 Stock rooted non-voodoo, was still seeing it after awhile.
I also just flashed MIUI to play with today, and still am seeing it.

I have the same problem, with any ROM that is not an official ROM from Verizon. It seems to be happening as soon as I root it. It is intermittent and locking and then unlocking the screen fixes it.

And what was the purpose of your response in this thread?
What launcher are you using? I had this problem and switched launchers from Zeam back to Launcher Pro, when I did that, all my lag issues with screen responsiveness were fixed.

Same as yours pointing his out. Seriously many people here need to take a chill pill. In all reality his did help as it shows that he does not have the problem. The more people that have the problem the bigger it is. This helps weed it out.
I had this problem last night trying to press the h key. I am running SC 2.4

happens to me also. I wonder why it dosnt happen to everyone??? And yes, i wiped and flashed.
Happens to me too. Seems to get worse with time. I was running superclean but flashed back to stock because the responsiveness got so bad my phone wasn't really usable. Happening again with debloated froyo too
It's happened to me on every Froyo ROM, even vanilla on occasion. It's probably just Samsung's ****ty kernel and so there's nothing much that can be done until there's source to work with.

I think I might have found a solution. I went into stock recovery and wiped cache. After a reboot I no longer have the responsiveness issues.
Edit: unfortunately I still have the unresponsiveness issues...seems it was temporary fix. Also, it is always the middle of my screen from top to bottom which becomes unresponsive. How about the rest of you guys?

His post contributed nothing as it provided no useful information to the op. He's looking for an ans...who cares if it worked for him. If that's the case we would have over a hundred posts pop up in here saying "mine works". If that's what you're going to say then at least provide some information the op cam use.
I too have been perplexed with this problem. Posted up in general but no solution has been found. I usually get so annoyed I go back to eclair for a while till I get ambitious enough to try again.
I will also point out that I loose all screen sensitivity when the charger is plugged in. Yes, stock charger and does not do this at all on eclair.

My phone and girls phone do this, mine is on sc2.4, hers is on sc2.2.
Its only slightly annoying at the moment for me, but she texts a lot and complains about the keyboard not working all the time.
The only unresponsiveness that I've noticed is that when I need to end a call, I find that I frequently have to tap "End" multiple times.
I'm also running Beautiful Widgets, so I assumed that that might have something to do with it.
Since BW requires an extra screen tap when coming out of a locked screen, I was assuming it was just a bug with the widget until I saw these posts.
Ok look if your useing set cpu and you set it to on demand your going to see lag but if you have this app and set it to conservative you will not have lag. If you are useing this app this will help you if thats your prob. If not them I suggest you DL'ed it to help your over all speed. I'm useing go launcher ex. Also as a side note I don't have any prob with my phone.

That's a great point. I never thought of that but I had also been noticing some lag while set cpu was set to on demand. Switched to conservative and did seem to notice a difference. Thanks.
I've always had SetCPU on conservative, 1GHz max and 200MHz min. Maybe I don't see it as much as you all say but it's enough for me to notice.

A week ago I Odin'd back to stock and upgraded to the official 2.2 VIA Kies Mini. I have not rooted since or really even restored any of my old apps. No mods, just a stock Vibrant now. While I was playing WordFeud the phone locked up for about 20 to 30 seconds then on the screen it stated a screenshot has been taken. I then checked the Gallery and sure enough there was a picture of the screen. My question is has anyone seen this or know what happened. I checked the WorFeud app help and it didn't mention anything about a screen capture feature. Is there some sort of button combination on the new 2.2 Release that allows for screen captures to be taken? I was pretty confused by this, please let me know your thoughts and/or experiences.
OK, I see others have encountered this too and I would of found that if I searched correctly, as in spell correctly. OK, I see that people are saying to hold the back button and hit the home or menu button. I have tried these methods and have yet to make it work again. Either way, since this is sort of covered already, without a clear answer though, MODS feel free to delete.
Crap, didn't see your thread.
I encountered the same thing today and it was pretty nice. Still trying to figure out how to do it. Its a nice feature!
I did it too....im not rooted at this time. Cant figure it out.....

Yeah I've done that too accidentally. Don't know how though.
Updating to Stock 2.2 from Kies is probably your first mistake, that ROM is so bad I couldn't stand it for more than a day. Flashed Trigger and reborn I was. Plan into getting a custom ROM for your phone because screenshots are not the only thing you will encounter annoying from Samsung's Froyo.
I ended up with screen shots in my gallery and I have no idea how they got there. There was never a notification or anything.
There is something built in, but I don't think the Vibrant really supports multitouch on the capacitive buttons. My girlfriend can do this on command, but only in the mms app. She clicks back, and when she feels a delayed haptic feedback, she pushes home and it works everytime.

Yeah, I was rocking Macnut R14 for a while after trying a few others. I updated to Samsung 2.2 to test out because a friend was thinking of trying it and asked if I would try it first. I was bored of it within a hour I think but gave it a few days. Bionix and DOW Kernal on it now.
I know and love EXT4.... I've sweared by voodoo and it was the only lagfix I ever even considered. Until recently.
I went back to stock JFD (use my guide if you like)
I downloaded and flashed Heathens Private Stock
* please note voodoo is not enabled, if you have voodoo, disable it before flashing if you don't odin back to jfd first.
And...
I can not tell a difference without Voodoo. It seems JUST as fast if not faster than the previous ROMs I have used. A huge kudos to jellette as this ROM feels very nice and has a very nice theme to it. Switching back and forth between apps and they load very fast.. not noticing lag like on JFD. I realize Froyo helped this, just surprised is all.
Benefits:
- Discovered if /system is EXT4 *voodoo* you can't restore a backup in CWR
- Not having to worry about disabling voodoo (not done so much anymore)
- Seems just as fast and phone is how it shipped
- Voodoo Sound can be loaded from the Voodoo Control Plus app (not missing that feature)
Cons:
-Not sure yet, I suppose lower quadrant scores (meaningless anyway). I am getting barely over 1k, but it feels just as fast as when I was using voodoo.
Encourage you guys to backup everything, go back to stock and then try this ROM....
Question remains, is voodoo necessary?

Good question! I was actually wondering this the other day. I tried a few different ROMs without lagfix.
I was wondering the same thing about it. "Is lagfix just a workaround to cheat higher quadrant scores?"
After a day or so on any ROM I tried without lagfix you would notice a slow down mainly in shutting down programs. Sometimes they would take up to 5 seconds to close! Opening programs slowed some but not nearly as noticeable. The dialer would take some time to open as well.
So in my experience lagfix seems to speed the phone in read/write capabilities. Which I imagine is what it was desinged for. You notice in Quadrant, that is where the most improvement is (In I/O).
So if you arent a real big phone geek (like most of us probably are) then the lagfix shouldnt make a huge difference to you. But, for me, I like my phone to fly doing anything. So lagfix enabled here!
It's not all about the speed. Its good to have a standard. This phone should've been on ext4 from the start. Supercurio has done a great job getting everyone switched over. I don't believe rfs is supported in cwm3+ either.
Just my opinion. I always use it. If I flash something else its an easy fix. Just flash an ext4 compatible kernel!
Edit:
I just reread your post, and I've never had a problem restoring backups. In fact, I flashed to an i9k Gingerbread ROM this morning, played around with it for a while (read: smashed my face against the gps), flashed a Froyo kernel and restored my nandroid without ever using ODIN or RFS
rfs = sux ballz (wen i first got my phone and started rooting one of the first things out of my mouth was wtf is rfs!)
ext4 = ahh, thats btr
I agree that stock felt oddly similar with voodoo enabled and disabled when i tried it for a day yesterday.
I disagree that you cant restore nandroids with CwMRecovery. For me it seems like its hit and miss which i'm gonna continue to test.

Don't get me wrong....
Like I said, I love Voodoo.. I've only considered EXT4 and it is my preference... thought I made that clear.
BUT, I have not noticed any difference with it vs. using jellette's ROM, and that is really surprising to me. I know it can tend to "slow down" over time (which I do not understand why).. but changing from app to app I am noticing no difference.
Regarding restoring backups....
I said that because the man himself made THIS COMMENT just yesterday. I have had issues in the past (5 x maybe) where a restore failed, never knowing why. I've also had them restore fine, not sure why the difference.

Dude, that makes me so freaking happy. Is there a reason he is not gracing us on XDA.. I loved that guy back in the day.
You keep saying your using his rom, but which one are you referring to in hist thread? there is a 2.2.1 and a 2.2
I tried the 2.2 and it was laggy like the stock 2.2 and I have taken my phone all the way back to closed box and brought it up to 2.2(KB5) and there is always lag there. I don't mind Touchwiz but when a couple weeks go by and my phone starts crawling across the ground like a drunken sailor it gets a little aggravating.
Basically in my experience any rom, and I mean any, with or without voodoo runs great for a few weeks, but then the slowness comes back and you start to notice apps taking longer to open and close, MMS really starts to lag as well as the keyboard when typing. the gallery really takes a hit and showing pictures off on my 500 dollar 1Ghz phone becomes embarrassing. So with or without voodoo stock 2.2 on the Vibrant seems to run great but runs out of gas in a few weeks, some may last a month. 2.2.1(sucks with no Wifi calling) seems to keep going much better, and the browser is faster. So if your running 2.2.1 of his then yea you might see a better faster rom, but if you run his 2.2 I bet after a few weeks of regular use you will start seeing lag and get frustrated. And I bet even the 2.2.1 will start to crawl at some point.
Now I'm not dissing his rom or anyone else's. They are all based off of the crap the Samsung shoved out the door and yea a few tweaks here and there help, but every rom always seems to start crawling at some point and nothing seems to bring it back to day one other then reflashing.
Well, I guess once it's been out for a few weeks I will let you know. I am taking one of our best developers word on this matter though. I'm not saying I am right.. just pointing out someone smarter than me says so, and after using it for a few days I have to agree... so far.

which rom are you running the 2.2.1 or 2.2
The only thing really keeping me on 2.2 roms is wifi calling.
I'm on 2.2.
The rom is not perfect, but it works very well for me so far. I went to cut on my screen and it was stuck at all black (buttons would lite up) so I just held in power to reboot.... first time I've noticed ANY issue with this rom. Odd, I think it had something to do with me going crazy backing out of the browser and then shutting down my screen.

I have gotten that on quite a few roms including two versions of trigger and three stock builds. I get out of it by pressing the power button 3-5 times giving about 1-2 seconds between presses and it eventually came back.
I might try the 2.2 build out eventually.

The response on the touch screen for my atrix is all screwed up, I was wondering if anyone else had these issues.
I first got the phone in april and it worked flawlessly, for the last week the touch screen response has been really weird. sometimes it doesn't recognize input at all, other times it thinks i'm touching somewhere else, it often randomly selects a point on the screen completely on its own.
i'm unlocked, have a custom recovery. i started getting the issues on alien3, i flashed a new custom recovery and alien4 and i still have the problems.
i'm worried its hardware at this point, and i don't know what options i have for warranty since i got it on ebay. am i screwed?
First try again flashing everything from the start.
1. Flash the newest recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
2. Flash this radio for GingerBread ROMS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163009
3. FULL WIPE - Dalvik, Cache and data. (Also internal&external SD if you want to)
4. Flash any FULL WIPE ROM you want, like Alien #4.
5. If still didn't resolve the problem and you want to try more stuff, try flashing other kernel ?
Like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156040
You can try also flashing full SBF, read more about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261

If you problem doesn't get solved by clean flashing a new ROM, then it's a hardware issues -> as in "you need to replace digitizer".

I have these issues to. They appeared randomly and there are random periods where it goes away, then comes back, sometimes worse than others. The SGS Touchscreen Booster app definitely helps, but it doesn't make it go away for me.
The only thing I haven't tried listed in this thread yet is flashing a new Kernel.
I've considered buying a new digitizer and replacing it myself, but the fact that the occurs so randomly and can even sometimes stop after rotating the screen, I'm very hesitant to do so.
i have tried this, but the problem still persist. I tried Optimized & Super Optimized settings, but its still the same
Even though the affects sound the same the cause maybe different. I know that sounds unlikely but I know that the Screen Booster worked for me.
There are a couple of other paths you may want to look at.
I was always convinced that the issue was not hardware based otherwise no matter what I did to the software it wouldn't have changed the fault but software changes did.
In my case before I implemented the app I would get a few hours respite by installing another base.
I have never used AT&T's OTA for Gingerbread so have been able to to SBF to what ever build I liked. For a while going to the initial Froyo build worked but as said only for a day at most. I had reached the point where I didn't care if it was Froyo or Gingerbread I just wanted a working phone.
No doubt I will get some flack for that comment however my phone has never hard bricked and I have been up and down the builds like a man possessed.
This is where I put the statutory do this at your own risk. It worked for me but I do not know the history of your device.
Then I came across this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131649 thread.
It worked ! Well for a couple of days.
At that point I started get get some respite to SBF'ing to Pudding 2.3.4 Pre-Root.
My trouble with all of this is that I do not understand the issue. I suspect it was a software glitch I created due to messing with builds. Screen Booster worked for me and if I were you I would spend a little more time before going down the other paths.
Again how I got it to work was as follows.
Install.
Set to Super Optimized, initially there was little change in the behaviour of the phone and I thought it was a bust.
Rebooted
Set to Super Optimized again and it started working.
If anyone should know why this screen behaviour happens please let me know. I am close to getting another Atrix so I can take Screen Booster off this one to try and figure it out.
So! My mother is on the lookout for a new phone, and this guy is cheap on Verizons site. Her phone that she has now, the LG Revolution, has constant freezing issues that irritate her beyond all belief, and because I know Android she dumps them all on me. I'm looking for some questions answered about this phone before I decide if this is the phone for her:
I have read on the Engadget Review that this phone freezes often. After custom ROMs are installed (I'm thinking MIUI), is this problem alleviated?
The LG Revolution has this weird issue where it's way too easy to scroll on it, which makes opening icons on any homescreen app drawer a huge PITA.
I basically need to be able to install ROM, drop it in her hands, and feel comfortable that she's not going to run into any hardware issues with the phone. This includes freezing because of memory issues.
Also, the drop of 4G isn't an issue, it's not in the area anyways.
Thanks guys for your comments and advice ahead of time.
This device pretty much poops on the revolution. That being said my device never froze when it was stock. We have alot of rom options from mtd based roms such as android 4.0 ICS v4, CM7.1 stable, Miui, Tsm pool party...also there are some really good TouchWiz Ginberbread roms such as, Superclean v.5, PWGB, Geewiz etc... I currently am bouncing between cm7 and ICS, but I cant say those are the best roms, they all are pretty good. You will just have to try them and see what your mother likes best.
No freezing problems here, although it does bug out on me with random pressings of the back key. Sometimes the phone will enter screen capture mode and take a screen shot every time I try to power it down. Removing the screencapture apk solves this.
Overall it has been a good phone and has served me well. Gotta love that Samsung display!
I havent had this device for that long, but I love it compared to by old Droid X, mostly due to nicer screen, better battery life, and easier hack-ability.
That being said, I personally am curious on what has been done, if anything, to the LG.
Has it been rooted?
Are you running aftermarket software?
Some freezing issues can be solved by changing ram parameters, others by getting rid of certain bad apps.
I personally would like to see if your problems are actually solvable before getting a new and unfamiliar device, just for S&G's of course
It is rooted, and even after messing with the ram settings tweaked it still freezes. The other problem is that it dies way quickly, even with JuiceDefender and a calibrated battery. She's only had it for a week, so she's not yet settled on that one's ways.

I've had this phone for almost two years now and I've never had it freeze up on me. Install the SuperClean3 ROM. Solid ROM for that phone. I currently have ICS but for your mother's phone use SC3.

Yes he is. Now I know.

I'm also a fan of SuperClean. Great rom, with none of the AOSP issues that I find to be annoying enough to avoid. If you want to tweak it a bit, add KGB kernel and maybe a different launcher (I like OMFGB-Launcher) and Rom Toolbox will handle just about everything else. This is my setup, no major tweaks (lag fix, etc) other than zram and 1.2 gHz overclock. Fast and stable.
Running 6.1 build of ics, no issues at all with stock kernel but was wondering what you guys think of the glitch kernel paired with this rom? Should I make the plunge even though stock is working flawlessly or should I keep stock? I usually don't post questions and figure stuff out for myself but I want the community's opinion on it before I make up my mind. I know its ultimately my decision but any input positive or negative would be appreciated, if you are going to reply please post reasons and not just a yes or no response,
Thanks.

I like glitch alot, but for now i would stick with stock...jmo
Well if it's working great, then don't try to fix something that isnt broken lol it would probably create more problems

I'm running glitch b3 and...I definitely recommend it if you're into tweaking. Live OC makes a pretty big difference in performance to me.
I'd agree with sendan. You're not losing any functionality with glitch, only gaining features and performance.
Also, it's just a kernel, there's no harm in trying it out. If you don't like it, restore a backup or reflash the rom. It's not like you have anything to lose.
I like glitch too. A live oc around 114-116% and 13xx as max clock makes this phone run like a dream.

Installed glitch, ran your settings and threw phone into a constant reboot. Had to flash build 1 and then 6.1 to get it back up and running. My phone doesn't play nice with glitch I guess :-/ lol

Same problem for me too.
It's very touchy, nobody will disagree with that.
and thats why I posted what I did...glitch 13.1 runs great on mtd gb roms, but glitch 14b3 for ICS seems hit or miss on some devices. Im sure it will get better as development continues, until then sotck is probably the best bet for most.

Yeah I understand man. The glitch runs fine on my phone if I don't tweak the CPU at all. Tweak it at all and the phone freaks out like a mf on crack or something lol.

Sorry about that. My phone was running fine at 115% for about 24 and then it also threw a reboot fit like yours had.
I;m not really sure what caused it but I guess it's still a bit temperamental at this point.

Yeah I think 1200mhz is about the most my phone will handle, and that's with 100%oc so maybe if I tweak it to 115 or something I'd have to drop it down a notch. I just don't feel like dealing with a reboot fit right now

I have mine at 107%...tbh it gets ridiculously hot with anything much higher.

You could've just gone into recovery and erased your OC/voltage settings. Assuming you're using the glitch recovery, that is.

Every phone responds differently to OC, *especially* it seems, with the new LiveOC system in v14. I haven't seen any issues reported by people using v14 with completely stock settings, so I wouldn't call the kernel itself unstable, just the utilization of some of the features it includes. I also suspect that a lot of the people that report issues with glitch haven't read and/or taken the time to understand the LiveOC guide that is linked to in the glitch OP.

i agree...guess that i should of been more clear and said that most folks do not know how to properly setup v14 with nstools and can easily cause damage to the device...which is part of the reason i mention to stick with stock(if your not sure wth your doing lol). im currently running ths 6.1 with glitch 14 oc'd @ 1200mhz and undervolted -50 across the board, fiop/lagfree govenor and everything is working great.

Well as of almost 12 hours ago or so, I'm running 105%liveOc 12xx setting, lag free and fiop, and seems to be no issues. I had to send my backup fas in for the ota brick that happened with a lot of peoples eh03 ota. Hopefully they send me a replacement cause we arent due for upgrading till October.
So until it comes back I'm a little hesitant to play with uv. I know the basics, but still don't wanna play the boot loop game

Definitely agree that for most users the stock kernel is probably best, and it isn't really lacking any features the average user will miss. Except I thought I saw something about 6.1 not including voodoo sound? Not sure about others, but that's a must for me. Anyway, I'm personally running 110% liveOC with 1320mhz max with no undervolting and the phone feels really responsive a good part of the time. It's been good so far but I need to stress test it.

I can definitely see being hesitant with the undervolting, and especially with being able to adust ARM and INT voltages. As I understand it, you could certainly end up with a brick if things are pushed too far.
