Home button lag

Hello All,

New S3 user here. This isn't a huge deal but it's a little annoying. When I press the home button about a 3-4 second lag before the phone cycles back to the home screen. Has anyone else encountered this?

Th
Thanks!

Open up s-voice then hit menu and there is a setting in there for long pressing home button. Disable it. See if that helps

Thanks for the reply. I have opened s-voice but the only option I see relating to the opening of s-voice is "Open s-voice by double clicking the home screen"

Now go into phone settings and scroll to the bottom and and open developer options. Scroll about half way to animation speed and window speed. Change it to .5 or 0 for both. Now you have speed.

Well I'll be damned, what a difference a little setting makes! Thanks for the info... :)

Hmmm... My AT&T phone only has Animation Scale, not Animation Speed. Is that the same thing?
 
shame its necessary to make these changes to speed the s3 up to the level it should be. I only knew because I read forums, those that don't will be stuck with it. Maybe it won't bother them or maybe they'll moan about how slow it is compared to the iphone! I suppose at least samsung allowed the options to speed it up but I think it should've been this way right out the box

Does anyone know if this tweak has had its own thread posted? It's such an easy thing to do with such impressive results, I almost feel like it should be put front & center...
 
i actually find the effect a bit 'snappy' to look at when all the settings are off, and ive actually gone that other way :) running them all at 1.5 - looks quite cool imo - plus the delays for me are when contacts/sms apps load themselves and not the actual screen transitions etc - svoice off i a biggy though

cheers

I agree I like 1.5 on jelly bean and 1 on ICS. Much smoother and not as "jerky"
 
have you just tweaked the 3 obvious screen settings all to 1.5?

....set mine back to 1 now as seemed to be delaying the screen wake
 
WOW! disabling S-Voice really speed up my home button lag! I figured it was because it was a physical button, but the lag is gone! Thanks a ton!
 
I think mine has got slower when waking device :-\
seems to have a good think about it before screen comes on.
I've disabled s voice etc
