Comment on The half-assed implementations of battery charge limits...
Krudler@lemmy.world 4 months agoWhere are the options for:
- Make screen not randomly hang, filled with ghost images and artifacts
- Have phone actually give notifications when they arrive
- Respect battery charge settings
- Have app-switcher not randomly stop accepting swipe inputs

Ok, that sound more like your phone is kinda iffy. I don’t mean to piss you off by saying this, but have you tried a factory reset?

Oh FFS lol
These are all well known and well documented problems

I think they may have fixed the app switcher thing? Or at least one of them.
Here’s the scenario I kept running into on my 6. I’ll give the apps names to simplify the description, but the problem was generic. So let’s say I’m in Firefox, and I want to glance back at something in signal. So I double-tap “recent” to switch to my previous app, but what comes up is instead WeatherBug, because I forgot I glanced at that between Signal and Firefox. So I still want to go to Signal, but when I get there, I want my previous app to be Firefox, not WeatherBug, so I double-tap recent again to get back to Firefox as an interim step. Then I hit recent yet again, and this time the whole screen freezes up and won’t respond to touch. The workaround I found was that if you interacted with the screen on WeatherBug–usually I’d just scroll it down and back up a tiny bit–it wouldn’t lock up. So I got in the habit of doing that.
Recently there’s been a change, though, and it seems to fix that bug. Unfortunately, it also screws up the “switch to last app” functionality sometimes. Now I’ll be in Firefox, open recent apps, scroll past Weatherbug to open Signal, and when I double-tap recent, it’ll switch to WeatherBug.
So it’s still a screwy mess, but at least it’s not locking up as often anymore.
