When you guys flick scroll and want to stop in the middle, do you guys tap it once to make it stop. Everytime i just tap once to pause it, it keeps going afterward. I would have to double tap the screen for it to stop at the spot. Is this a feature or a bug?
Not sure. I've always stopped the 'scrolling from flinging' by putting my finger on the screen and leaving it on, and then manually scrolling, as it's not often I can fling the page and it stop where I want it when I tap the screen.
But mine does stop with a single tap. What app are you using when this happens?

Well, it happens on the browser. I would fling it and i would try to stop at the spot, but after i let go, it continues scrolling up.
Stock browser?

Same thing happens for me with it continuing to scroll. I normally just wiggle the screen a little and it stops.

yea stock browser. Is this normal for everybody else? It doesn't happen on my other android devices.
I don't use stock browser. Too few options. Yes it is smooth as all get out. But not enough for me.
I just tried it and it seems like to stop it you have to perfectly tap the screen without moving your finger at all (up or down), otherwise it thinks you're still scrolling.
Since it is stock there's a good chance it will get fixed by samsung at some point. I can't imagine many people liking that.

I noticed that sometimes while I scroll through a webpage diagonally or in a circle-motion, the scrolling gets locked to only being able to go EITHER horizontally OR vertically. To get rid of this I simply have to remove my finger and then start scrolling again. Now, this only happens sometimes, and maybe it's related to the specific browser (I'm using stock), but I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this? I've only noticed it in the browser, but thats maybe because that's one of the few apps where you actually scroll both up,down, and sideways.
It's not really a major problem, more like a tiny thorn in the otherwise amazing paradise
Oh, and I'm using .14 because despite searching for an update it says I'm fully updated.
Thanks!

Wave Launcher is fully customizable. You can change the size, location and even thickness of the gesture-area. To change it, look for "Gesture-area presets" in the Settings screen.
The setting the works for most people and is my personal favorite is "Bottom Left - 20%". It will never interfere with the keyboard or scrolling this way.
Note that you can also have Wave Launcher automatically disable in Landscape mode which is often used for typing, games, etc.
The app is very powerful and highly customizable, please go through all the settings to make sure you make the most out of it.
Any reports guy's?

Used it and it interefered with a lot of things going on on the bottom of the phone such as opening the app drawer and typing. Just my experience others may vary.

As Mike said above.
I also tried it for a bit, and even changed the popup swipe location but it is just OK. I think bottom corner 20% was the one that worked best for me, but even then I would accidentally press the Home button. Sides are for screen sliding already, and top is for notifications, so there is not much free room to swipe around. Its a fine launcher, but I did not find it useful enough to keep.
I thought it would let me make a gesture to swipe it onto the screen, not follow my finger around everywhere, to where I cant even get rid of it without the awkward swipe back into the same corner of the screen.
What it should have is a setting on how far to follow you across the screen, so if I swipe up from bottom corner, it appears, then it follows me around but only until I get to say 50% of the screen height, then it goes away.
That way, if it appears accidentally, I dont have to swipe is back down, but simply continue the swipe up motion until it dissapears.
I tried it but didn't care for it. Holding the Home screen button essentially does the same thing. Aloso, If you're running stock then you've got your most recent apps in the notification drop down. Unless you are constantly switching between apps, it's pretty pointless.
I use mine for a quickdial and store a few contacts there. so far it hasn't interfered too much
Thanks for your feedback guys!

First of all, loving my new note. However I noticed that when I press the home key at the bottom, it'll take half a second to a second to actually start the transition to home.
I'm on the latest saurom, can anyone offer me a solution to make it more instantaneous?
Sent from my SGH-I717R using XDA
Clear your cache in CWM maybe. Otherwise back up your apps with titanium backup and reflash.

Hmm OK I'll try that, just to make sure, my case isn't normal right? How instantaneous is the home button for others?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA
I noticed a slight lag in returning to home using the stock launcher as well, so if you're using that it may be the culprit. I use ADW EX and have no lag anywhere.
I don't own a Note, but many Samsung ROMs have a delayed home button response because it waits for a moment to see if you're going to double-tap the home button, which starts the voice command app. Over in the Galaxy S II forums, we use a tweak to disable this "wait for the double-tap" feature to get rid of the home button lag (on Gingerbread ROMs anyway). Just letting you know in case there's a similar tweak available for the Note.
Ohh that makes a lot of sense thanks, I'm guessing there's no fix like that for the note as of yet. If anyone knows of one please let me know.
Edit: Found it! Its in deluxe settings to turn off double click, now home button is super fast ))

I am desperated by now. I need a way to disable autolock, but in all lockscreens apps, not only on the one that comes with the phone. I guess what I need is an action like when you are on a call and the screen goes off but the phone is still awake.
For example, I want to use Go Locker, and I have my screen timeout set to 15 seconds. When the 15 seconds passes my screen goes off, but also, Go Locker autotriggers itself. I don't want that to happen because it is annoying as hell to be unlocking all the time.
I have read thoulsands of threads here and in other websites, and I have try tons of apps, all of that with no results.
I have read that you can do what I want with Tasker, but I haven't figured out how.
Please, somebody help me, this issue has been driving me mad for two weeks now!
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english
um can't you just disable the lockscreen?
system settings -> Security -> Screen lock -> select "None"

Haven't you read me? I want to have a lockscreen, especially a custom one, not the ugly uncustomizable system one. For example, as I said, Go Locker. But I also want to prevent the autolock when the screen goes off. I want the lockscreen (any lockscreen) to trigger only when I press the button, and not when the screen goes off. Or at least to trigger itself after a long time, let's say 30 minutes. I need some app or something to turn off the screen just like in calls, but I don't know where else to look at this point...
Have a look in the store for Delayed Lock, it's a rather handy little app. There's a free trial available, the support thread is on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955092

It only works with the system lockscreen, not with any other lockscreen... it even force you to use a pattern. What if I want to use the swipe method instead?
I tell you people, I think I need to trigger the same effect that happens when you are on a call. The screens disconects but the phone is still awake.
Thanks anyway but I still lost...
You may want to consider using Cyanogenmod since they include several such tweaks. In Settings->Lock Screen->Screen security you can delay the lock by up to 30 minutes if it timed out. Pressing power button engages it immediatly.
Alternatively, take a look at Juice Defender, it also has such an option but if I remember correctly not as customizable.
I use No Lock. Not what you want, but it works great.

Is not that, that is only for system lockscreen ant also, not for swipe lockscreen. I want something that applies to ANY lockscreen, like Go Locker.
I'll try Juice Defender.

Change the title of your thread, before it reaches hundred pages of people chiming in to tell you to go to setting and disable it.
You should made it clear in the title that it is not just for stock lock screen but any.

You want to be able to keep your screen on indefinitely until you close the screen manually?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, I want the screen to go off in 15 seconds for example, but not to lock until I press the power button. Or at least until a minimun time has passed, like 30 minutes.
I want to think that I can do this with Tasker, but I don't know how! Any help?
Why not just use NoLock? It has a toggle. Toggle it on for when you want backgrounding without a lock screen and then turn it off when you want your phone to lock?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I don't want that because of two reasons:
1 - It completely disables the lockscreen and I don't want that. I don't want to be toggling all the time. It's almost the same as unlocking all the time, at least for me.
2 I don't think it works with custom lockscreens.
Thanks anyway.
Try miui with tons of different lock screens and everyone is system. I think this is app specific rrally.. Either you get what you want with system lockscreen or you do a request for the developer of the lockscreen you want to use....

Sorry mate, just downloaded Golauncher and Golocker to see if I could do this for you, but it seems like the whole process is pretty closed off, I can't find a way for tasker to influence golocker in any way.
Works with widgetlocker though... just sayin'
What works with widgetlocker??

Hold until it starts the rings around the bookmark and then drag dont let go.
