BlackBerry Passport Touchscreen Lag - Video Example
-
Posted via CB1011-03-14 02:01 AMLike 0 - Yeah no. That's BS. Tried out the iPhone 6/6+ before getting the PP, and cycling quickly internet tabs while various apps were open was/is a brutal experience. While there's some lag on the PP, I'd have complete pages reloading on the iPhone. Also, the quality of the iPhone 6's is garbage - played around with a bunch of them (friends and in store), and bendgate is no joke - these things bend like nothing else. There were even multiple in-store models at the Apple store that were bent (that I took a video of and posted on mac rumours). Build quality of the PP by far trumps iPhones - most Android phones do as well.
I am curious.

Even allowing for the longer animation returning to the page of icons, the device responds much quicker.
Can anyone running 10.2 try the same? (tap to close app that isn't the last active frame and swipe to see if the phone responds straight away each time).
Could be a 10.3 change to the active frames code that's causing it.

11-03-14 02:14 AMLike 0 - Right, I think I know exactly what's happening (at least with the active frames close delay).
When closing a frame that doesn't require the active frames to reorganise themselves, we get the long unresponsiveness after the close animation completes.
But when closing an active frame that requires the remaining frames to reorder themselves, the much longer animation plays after which the device is responsive.
So it looks to me as though, even when no rearrange animation is played, the device waits for the same duration as that animation _would have taken had it needed to_. This behaviour presents itself as a period where the UI isn't responding.
So it's a small but quite irritating tiles bug.

11-03-14 03:01 AMLike 0 - here's my take when you close an app, if u swipe to your app pane you'll notice the app icon is slightly greyed out, which means although the active frame for the app is closed, the app is till in the process of closing( i.e. releasing locks on all background process that allow th e app to be open). from this one can deduce that although the frame is closed, that 1 or 2 seconds delay before being able to swipe out of the homescreen is a result of the app releasing locks on the screen processes it might have held, this 1 or 2 seconds is not much of a problem compared to say : closing and app and being able to swipe but having the space where the active frame occupied being locked so any new app you opened would open at the second position for an active frame and skip the space held for the closed app, just because you want to be able to swipe as fast as u close an app.
I have watched review videos and seen the same missed inputs by many of the testers. Trying to close apps I see them touching the x multiple times.
The problem highlights a problem in the OS prioritization that needs to be fixed. What is the advantage of doing it the way BB does which creates the slight lag? I know the downside of doing it the way BB is doing it. You get lag in certain situations. So what is the advantage of doing it the way BB is doing it? If we know the advantages it may offset the slight lag in these certain situations. I don't think animations should ever be more important than the touch inputs.11-03-14 03:27 AMLike 0 -
My point is that it is insane how a Passport owner gets attacked for reporting a legitmate issue with his or her phone. I've seen people here actually accuse owners of Passports that have issuses of having purposefully damaged the phones themselves.
It is crazy how some people treat others in this forum.Joao Oliveira likes this.11-03-14 05:39 AMLike 1 - Which mostly happens under 1 exact scenario:
Those people that are getting attacked didn't worship BlackBerry enough.
And obviously every legitimate problem a BlackBerry user might experience, is a case of not worshipping BlackBerry enough.

- Your Note 3 doesn't lag? - That's odd because we have 2 of them in our house and they both lag unless you restart them on a daily basis and they are only 1 month old - one of them (mine) doesn't even have any apps installed on it because I just use it as a spare phone. I also recently purchased the Samsung Tab S which supposedly has a powerful processor in it and it still lags.11-03-14 07:36 AMLike 0
- Android has had a reputation to Lag and crash a lot, wich they did and still do to some extent. but recent improvements in hardware and OS updates have improved a lot. Androids with snapdragon 600+ and android 4.4 have greatly reduced lag that isn't a deal breaker anymore.11-03-14 08:09 AMLike 0

Btw I have a passport and deem your issues as inconsequential for my professional uses. To each their own.11-03-14 08:11 AMLike 3 - Android has had a reputation to Lag and crash a lot, wich they did and still do to some extent. but recent improvements in hardware and OS updates have improved a lot.

- Well this is my personal opinion and experience so please respect.
I just came back home from a mobile shop and it was the first time I touch passport. The first thing that crossed to my mind was Deckard79 topic about lag and some issues with passport. To be honest before I really work with it I consider all of these things just BS but after I do exactly as what OP did I see some late respond as well. It only occur when you do it very fast and I don't think I ever do it that fast in daily usage. This issue is real and especially when you want to wake the devise up. Its not a very huge issue that stop me from buying passport but I expect Blackberry to fix these issues and camera focus.

By posting on here, the OP has found other people who exhibit the same issue. Has also found people who do not believe him and have tried to poke holes in his problem. This has provided the OP in counter arguments that could also be proven to not be accurate and has allowed him to make more videos showing that these counter arguments are baseless and the problem is one that does exist. That is what these forums are for in my opinion. Either they show the person with a problem a way to alleviate the problem, or they allow others with the same problem a way to also help try to figure out ways to fix the problem.Last edited by power5; 11-03-14 at 09:28 AM.

a) lots of people here are interested
b) not every reported bug gets fixed so here's a good place to keep tabs on such things.
If it's inconsequential to you then that's absolutely fine.
Posted via CB1011-03-14 09:36 AMLike 0 - Hi folks,
Here is a video example of the problem I've been experiencing with the BlackBerry Passport ever since purchase.
This lag has been present in every build I have tried. Very disappointing. As mentioned on another thread, it looks as though others are experiencing the same.
Here you go:
Happy to discuss in further detail. Anyone else noticing the same, please comment here.
Thanks.

- Which is the strangest part, as the Z10 has abysmal Hardware by today's standards, and the Passport has really really really solid specs.
