Is it possible to speed up the multitasking switcher? It has some annoying delay. Or even change it to the stock android one?

I wish there was. Maybe a dev can tell us if there's a way to use the stock android switcher.
There must be a way. The m8 had a mod that allowed it. Can anyone chime in ?

Ah...yeah that's possible. They edited the androidpolicy.jar and the framework-res.apk. I wouldn't know where to start once I got them decompiled so I'll leave it to a themer/developer.

It looks almost the same.
The multitasking switcher in this ROM is slow to come up. Like pretty laggy.
So if anyone really hates the lag on the multitasking. Switching to ART definitely helps.
It seems the lag is because its waiting for a long press for the menu. Hmm. I tried disabling it with an xposed module but that doesn't help. Although apparently the s5 active is fine because that has all buttons needed.

The active doesn't have a menu button either.

Yeah, I know.. Just figured it out.
It must be a fix they applied to the active ROM that doesn't make it wait so long.
Might just install a custom ROM and get it over with and see how that helps.

I honestly think it's just down to the standard TW lag. When I have one or two apps open, there isn't any lag in opening the switcher. It's only when I have a ton open that it lags for me. You have no idea how much I want the GPE S5 to come out so we can get CM and everything else working.

I've heard on the active s5 there's no lag at all. I guess we'll see. Installing a kernel and ROM now

A CM rom? Let me know how it is. I'm not going to flash it since a lot of stuff don't work, but I'll almost guarantee you that the lag will be gone.

Is something like this in development? I know this would probably come with a custom ROM but one could be useful now. Just to toggle amd edit things. IE keyboards and what not

No custom settings yet. Use AnyCut app.
Do you think there will be? Or will we just have to wait for roms?

Seems like a lot of people are getting the same problem... And it seemed that it is not only for CM9; but on almost all custom ROMs. This problem doesn't happen to everyone; but seemed to happen to quite a number of people (some quote from CM9 thread)

I also got this problem (both on speed rom 6.5 and energy stock 8/1).... I have no clue as to why it happen though. Happened to two different Amaze unit and doesn't happen all the time. So, it might not be hardware related; but, rather software related
this would happen if you used a 3rd party lockscreen on sense because the lockscreens mess with multi touch. try this out and see if it helps

OMG, i never thought of that. I did use Holo Locker because I don't like the fact that I can pull down the status bar on the lock screen (and I'm bored with sense locker too)
I probably have seen your thread; but, never really think it's related because I only realize the issue on the keyboard... I guess, I will try your fix and give an update later when I get back to my Amaze.
Thank you so much

Having the same issue but on CM9 there is no sense at all so it can't be the same reason...
I keep having the same problem. Especially when it comes to gaming. I tried playing Dead Trigger but the touch controls lag become so unresponsive. I tried running another ROM, and I don't have the issue. It appears only in CM9 for me

Hi, I'd like to use the torch.apk from Cyanogenmod in a Sammy rom. I already extracted it, I'd like to know how to make it work. If that's possible.

Not sure if it is because the led is part of camera controlled hardware which is kernel dependant. The torch app is only CM which would lead me to think it's not possible.
Although the range of torch apps in the market say otherwise and I also have no idea what I'm talking about, and so yeah there's my unhelpful answer

As the title suggests this is just a simple mod that gives you long press menu to kill and 4 way reboot. I'm personally running deodexed so no clue if it will work on stock odexed. Credits to blulite for the 4 way reboot and BigDogPooh for the menu to kill, all I did was combine the two for are phone.

+1 for creating an Odexed version
Not sure why you guys insist on odex versions of everything. Just flash a deodex build and be done with it.

This. Don't feel like reflashing my entire ROM just to get a simple reboot menu
So instead of simply downloading the ROM and taking the 2 minutes it takes to flash, you'd rather take more time and go around to every thread and ask for odex versions of everything? That makes no sense at all.
I did not see this feature available by itself, but I did some digging and found and tested a version that works on the Note 2 (See this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048668
For reference it works on my deodex rom (see pic), not sure about odex (or if any Xposed mod works on odex for that matter).
Happy modding!
Works on stock rooted odex.

Please excuse my ignorance... I just rooted my phone and haven't changed anything (no ROM, just stock the way it came out of the box)... I take it that's odex? Should work?
Thanks!!
edit: I tried it anyway and it worked... a little slow but working Now I can use my phone and calendar at the same time... makes it a BAZILLION times easier to dial-in to conferences!!

Yes, you are Odex. According to above it will work for you. Just install the .apk. I wouldn't use the 240 version.
tried it on Hyperdrive and works perfect
Multi Window Manager works as well if you dont want to use Xposed https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5iamJpbmMubXVsdGl3aW5kb3dtYW5hZ2VyIl0.
This really should be in General.
There is no development. Its a link to an App and someone elses work.

Works perfect on S4 to get around the bug where it drags a different icon just load all the apps you want to have multi window then reboot and they will be in alphabetical ordered and its easier to drag them in place and keep the icons you want.
