[Trying to fix] Display input lag

[Zanr Zij]

This post doesnt help to improve input lag on the note 2... i just wanted to say im much happier with the note 3

I just got a note 3 and im happy to report that compared to the note 2 it has much less input lag. Sitting both next to each other and moving the notifications slider up and down with one hand you can clearly see how the note 2 lags behind. Also i can see it in games and everything else.

Both phones running 4.3(4.3 samsung leak on note ii)

Note 2 with MJ5 Rom improved smoothness, input lag compare to MI6 . Plz try again with it

Personally, I think there is no ROM that improves input lag. Only placebo.

It's due to how the OS is constructed

Unlike iOS Android has some sort of middleware for the sake of compatibility across the vast
amount of different hardware.

I tried everything on SGS2, Xperia Z tablet and HTC One.
Nothing works.

And I couldn't stand the lag so I moved back to iOS.

Disabling Vsync, Combined with upping the max.events.per.sec build.Prop tweak had completely fixed the touch delay issues for me, in the past.

Upgrading a reference xperia Ray 2011 from 2.3 to a 4.0 update, introduced a noticeably delayed touchscreen responsiveness.

Disabling Vsync had a definite, 100% rate of reducing touchscreen delays, both on my old Htc evo running android 4.0 and my new old Nexus 7 2012 (4.2 - 4.4)

There is something about the Android VSync implementation, from 4.0+ They managed to "improve " the touchscreen responsiveness in 4.1..4.4+ by optimizing Vsync for less delay, and mainly noticed when you disable Vsync.

We should research a bit on that.
