Hi all,

Just returned to android again and got an s5, so far everything seems to be decent, performance wise, I have noticed some lag here and there in apps like messaging etc, but today I was trying to capture a few pics of my kids while they were playing and I hit the power key, then swiped on the camera from the lock screen and it seems like it takes on average 3-5 seconds.

It seems as though I swipe, then 2 seconds later the screen goes black, I seethe camera controls show then shortly after the view is available from the camera lens.

Is this normal for android or is this just a galaxy thing?

Just seems to feel like it takes too long and would definitely not work out well for those spur of the moment quick shots where time is imperative .

any thoughts?

Thank you in advance.

This is a well known issue. A software patch is coming very soon that will address this and some power management issues as well.

If you keep a lot of old messages you will experience lag, especially if there are photos involved.

get in the habit of deleting old messages. I keep mine down to less than 5 or so.
No lag at all.
