IPhone 4 animation/transition lag

When I unlock my iPhone or sometimes when I open or close apps, animation sometimes lags.
I've started noticing it more and more and I'm a little worried.
I know it's not a big deal, and it's just a visual animation of opening and closing apps, but I wonder if it's happening to you guys to, and why does it happen?

And i thought it only happened to me. I've tried a couple of my friend's iPhone 4 and 3/10 of my friends experienced this animation/transition lag. I am fully aware of your problem and i'm experiencing it as well. Doing a hard reboot did solve the problem for a couple of minutes but the problem still persists. I'm currently running the latest iOS on my iPhone. I already called apple and they said that it is a software problem. I hope that this problem will get fixed soon.
Edit: When opening an app, particularly the app store, there is a slight "Blackout", usually lasting for miliseconds, before opening up the app. My iPhone is only 3 months old and it's experiencing problems..

  • Disable animations/transitions globally in Firefox

    Just thought I'd share the solution I've finally found to this problem.
    Basically I was looking for a way to disable all fancy animations/transitions that happen whenever you hover over a button, tab etc. in Firefox. I'm using a theme that uses these transitions heavily and it just slows down the general browsing experience.
    One annoying transition that I've been wanting to get rid of is when you try to move a tab around (changing the order of tabs). The transitions make this quite cumbersome due to the lag the transitions bring with them. I do this quite frequently due to using Tree Style Tab, having a vertical tree of tabs. I found several threads describing this issue, one of which was archived: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/802516
    Anyways, the solution I've found to be working is to use Stylish (FF addon), and to create a User style with the following code:
    <pre><nowiki>/* Disable transition effects globally - Helps prevent lag & hight CPU usage */
    transition: none !important;
    }</nowiki></pre>
    If you only want to disable the tab move transition, you could probably track down the css file in the theme and the code in there that is responsible for that particular transition.
    This works for me on Firefox 29.
    Hope this info comes handy to someone out there.
    Cheers,
    Eddie
    Edit: seems like the code breaks when submitting this question. There is supposed to be a star instead of the bullet point in the code above like so: [star]{

    ''sireddie wrote:''
    <pre><nowiki>* { transition: none !important; }</nowiki></pre>
    That's not a good idea. It breaks certain panel menus. Use the following style instead.

    If you only want to disable the tab move transition
    You should be able to get rid of that by setting ''browser.tabs.animate'' to '''false''' in about:config.

  • Help Finding an Animated Transition

    Does anyone know where I can find an animated transition or a photo album opening and transitioning in to a picture. I've seen one where the first page of the book zooms in to a photo, but I cannot remember where I saw it. I've got a deadline and the client really wants something like this. Thanks

    This one is wedding specific, but 12 Inch Design has one:

  • HT4528 My new iPhone has a lag time before it turns on?  I need to make an appt with Tysons to get it repaired.

    My new iphone has a lag time before it turns on.  I think it may need to go into Tysons for support.  Do you have any other options for me?

    What exactly do you mean by lag time when tutned on?  If you startup from a shutoff condition you have to hold the power button for a few seconds before the startup sequence begins...and then the apple logo will stay on-screen for a minute or so as it powers up.
    If you are talking about waking from sleep, how long is this taking?
    If you are concerned, by all means take it in for testing...but Apple does not repair iPhones, they replace them if defective.

  • KEYBOARD LAG: My iPhone's keyboard lags.

    Especially when I am texting and entering information in Safari, my (Black 16GB 3G) iPhone's keyboard lags. Sometimes it misses a letter or it takes a couple seconds to do something. And usually all the sudden everything is erased or for example I get something like: apppppppppppppppppppple. It's a pain, but on some things, like entering contacts, it doesn't happen.
    What should I do? Do I just have to live with it; is this something that every single iPhone has, or do I need a replacement. (And don't say I need to restore because I've already done that four times for different reasons, and this lag has been going on throughout.)

    I'll be calling Apple tomorrow, and let you know what I hear.
    As for low memory, that could mean RAM, which might mean you have a lot going on at once... I guess if some Apps run in the background. Most likely it just means you have many songs, videos, apps, etc. You can check how much space you have by clicking settings, general, about and look at what it says next to available. Also, after the iPhone is formatted, there is only 14.6 GB available.

  • Transition lag iPad 4 iOS 7?

    Since updating my iPad 4 to iOS 7 (on the latest update now) I noticed that the transition animation from a vertical to horizontal and vice versa  drops frames (slight delay as well). It doesn't affect day to day usage but was wondering if it's just me. On the latest update, they added some extra stuff which helps minimise the animation timeout and the ridiculous lag while chaning the wallpaper. But if anyone's experiencing the same thing, help a fellow iPad user out by suggesting any fix.

    Tell Apple. There are only other users here

    FYI: ihaven't seen any of those problems on my iPad 4.

  • IPhone 5S : Icons lags

    Hi everybody,
    So when I open a app (games, apps or stock apps) and then I back on the home screen, I have the little animation lag..
    It's like iOS 7 wasn't optimized for 5S, it's really annoying !
    Obviously I restored my iPhone as a "New iPhone" but no change
    Aside from that, everything is smooth and fast, I don't understand !

    Edit : It's not this bug = https://discussions.apple.com/message/23085837#23085837

  • My iPhone 3gs is lagging and searching for signal all the time. Help!!

    Well, my phones like 3 years old...and latley it's been lagging, turning it's self off, not sending my messages, when I call other people it doesn't go through, and if it does they can barly hear me. I thought it was my sim card so I got a new one and it's not. Then My phone is almost always looking for signal evem in places I always have it. Which needless to say is draining my battery pretty bad. If anyone has any information on what I can do please help. I'm getting a new Iphone when the new one comes out, but i just want help on how to make this one useful for now.

    Try restore your phone back to factory setting through itunes. if that doesnt work or even before that call your service provider since they provide the network they will have some steps to try. if those fall then its hardware most likely

  • Adobe air 2.6 iPhone animation tween class vs onEnterframe

    Hi,  Does anyone knows what's better to create alpha or slide animations on iPhone applications, using a tween class like Tweener or use the classic onEnterframe.  What's the better choice, who's the better performance .  Thanks,  Nuno

  • Browser animation's lag in Windows 7.

    I am using two browsers (IE11 & Chrome), animation's in both of them starting to lag after a while (tabs opening/closes in 2 frames, scrolling lag and any website layout becomes laggy). I can temporarily fix it by minimizing/maximizing them, but after
    few minutes lag occurs again.
    I thought it might be a problem with browser's, but then I installed Opera & FireFox - they lag just as well.
    What I found out is that lag only occurs when I am using AERO theme's, on classic themes its never happening. Also when lag occurs in browsers - taskbar animated previews starting to lag just as well (opening in 3-4 frames instead of smooth animation).
    Laptop Conf: i7 2.4 Ghz 3630QM, 8 GB RAM, NVIDIA GT650M SLI, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 + all updates.
    What could be the cause?
    EDIT: What I tried:
    1) Clean install of browsers.
    2) Video driver update.
    3) Flash Player update.
    4) BIOS update.

    are there a lot of third party software or services running on the background? Have you checked task manager, whether the memory or cpu goes high when doing the animation?
    The animation you're talking about, is it being access on some websites? Internet bandwidth is good?
    Or you're developing some animation and you're doing the testing?
    or check out link below:

  • IPhone 6 stutters/lags when it vibrates

    I got my brand new iPhone 6 about 2 weeks ago and noticed that - specifically  when I'm playing a game - there is a 1-2 second lag whenever I receive a notification and it vibrates. When the notification is silent (such as Instagram) it runs smooth. Anyone else having the same issue? I've got an iPhone 6 running the latest OS update.

    Unfortunately the problem came back and is now even worse.
    It comes and goes but the biggest problem seems to be in Safari. So far it has taken me about three minutes to write the two first sentences... However the last sentence took just a few seconds an now it's  working properly again...
    What can be wrong?

  • Inserted Animation Transition Issue

    I'm starting a project for a large client who want a specific
    look and feel to the project:
    Logo at top of each slide.
    Persistent border on left with step by step instructions and
    Show Me / Try Me buttons.
    I found some good information about creating a parent project
    that has the final project size, then create all simulations and
    demos in a different project and publish as a SWF. Insert SWFs into
    parent project as an animation.
    Okay, this looks pretty good, but here's the problem: the
    animation fades in and out. I created the animation with no
    transitions, changed the project preferences to to NOT fade in and
    out on first/last slide, and to display for the duration of the
    slide. Any idea how to fix this so the animation just displays. Is
    this a good strategy?

    Hello,
    I am new to Adobe Captivate and had the same issues within a quite basic project. The before and after the recorded animation there was a white screen.  I followed the steps recommended in this discussion, but they did not help. What I then did is that I expanded the time of the animation and additionally I switched of the compression for publishing. Now it works fine for the published project. If I preview within the project, the screen is still there.
    As I am a (very) beginner, I have to admit, that I do not exactely knew why it works now, but it works.
    Best, Caroline

  • I updated to the new iWork Keynote... Animation/transition "Perspective" is no longer available... I wonder why?

    Any reason why Apple deleted "Perspective" in their transition/animation... that was my favorite of them all.

    The transitions are still there; they're just not enabled.
    Since the removal of the option to restore old transitions in the Keynote menu, they remain inaccessible.
    To prove they're still there - select the new Keynote app, right click, then select 'Show package contents'.
    Navigate to 'Contents' -> 'Resources'; all the old Transitions are there under 'KNTransition' including my old favourite 'Color Planes' that has now disappeared too.
    Someone just need to work out how to reactivate them...
    Or Apple just needs to turn them on again.

  • Iphone 4S Imessage Lag.

    Hello,
    I do not have a lot of time, so if this been asked again I do apologise.
    One of my questions was about sync/back up and restore but thanks to Allan, all is answered.
    Question I have right now is, why 2-3 days into using my Iphone 4s (16gb, Vodafone, had it for nearly 2 weeks now) all of a sudden Siri stopped working - She kept saying something on the lines of sorry, this is unexpected, i cannot help you right now. I would try to send any messages they wouldnt go through and just get stuck on imessage and wouldnt allow me to send as SMS only copy option available - only few hours later, after a phone call, i got a massive push of messages, mainly from my partner who is also using Iphone 4s but on Orange.
    Since than, everyday my iphone, if left in standby longer than 5 min, later collects all messages I get, and pushes them 30-60minutes later in one go. Or if i send a imessage, or make a phone call or use internet, only then i receive the messages. While i use messanging everything seems to be fine.. like Iphone4s antenna goes to sleep mode or something if I dont.
    My iphones battery life is as bad as my 3gs was, which mean.. it just gets me from 12 to 20-00 with 30% left - although i am bit heavy on messaging with my
    partner and her battery life isnt much better.
    Frankly, I dont really care about battery as long as it can just about last a working day, I have plenty of chargers at home, charge overnight, and about to buy a charger in car - and i spend a lot of time in the car so battery is not my concern. What does annoy me is this silly message delay - this problem I never had whilst using my 3GS on the same 5.0.1 OS.
    Can this be fixed somehow? I tried multiple restores. Only thing left to try is having phone restored to new - just need to write down notes, as some information very important.
    Shall i give up and take it back to vodafone and ask for replacement, or take it to apple for diagnostics?
    Please advise.
    Kind regards
    Igor

    Also, I noticed the same lag with iMessages while I am on home wifi :/ so perhaps it's a hardware problem?
