Seems like you're the only one with this issue, even the developer stated it wasn't caused by Zephyr.

Obviously he's going to state that.

Now, if you have another reasonable explanation for this... (Please don't tell me that it's magic, since I've receiving that kind of answers from the developer, lol).
 
Actually this bug it's not about lag, but about some kind of graphical glitches in the Messages.app, as you can see in the images above. If I launch the multitasking bar in landscape mode I get empty messages, cut bubbles, etc.
 
Strange, I've not a single instance of lag or issues with landscape in messaging. One of the very best tweaks around imo, I've never been a fan of double pressing home for the app switcher, even with a perfect home button.
 
Just in case, do you know any other alternative to Zephyr? Basically something for switching apps with multitouch gestures.
 
Just opened up iMessage and BiteSMS, turned it to landscape mode and Zephyr doesn't even work swiping up from it, if I swipe left to right, then multitasking bar opens up from there.

No bug.

Ok that's weird. I mean, I get that you don't see anything wrong in the Messages app and that there is no bug for you, but no multitasking bar in landscape mode? Isn't that a Zephyr feature? Because -again- only using this tweak I can see the multitasking bar in landscape mode.
 
Keyboard disables on/off may be causing some confusion here.

I have mine set to on, meaning the swipe up doesnt activate the app switcher when the keyboard is on screen.

Do you have SBrotator installed as well? That could cause some issues?

I don't see the multitasking bar in landscape mode, well I can but its sideways and on the right.

Can you post a screenshot of your settings in Zephyr so we can see which toggles you have selected.

I don't know of anything that utilizes multitouch gestures, but there are a couple tweaks that enable a landscape multitask bar. Most I knew from iOS5 but Springtomize 2 (which works for iOS6) has an option for it. Just wondering, did you restore your phone from a backup that was previously jailbroken?

I see the multtasking bar in landscape mode if I use the Zephyr gesture to bring it up. But not if I double tap the home button (brings it up in portrait)

I even double tapped my home button and the left side of the screen popped up for multitasking. I think you should restore, and try again.

Mine is off, and still no multitasking in landscape, it pops up to the left of my screen as if I swiped from the bottom in portrait mode.
 
Just did the Zephyr update today and it was LAME. Why would you remove a feature instead of just being able to enable/disable it? Now you can't swipe up to close while the keyboard is up instead it gives you the grabber which is absolutely pointless imo. It takes me 2 or 3 times to even get it and then I have letters typed out on the keyboard... Back to the home button for me until broken update is fixed!:(

Hmmm… seems people didn’t really like the new keyboard features in Zephyr 1.6. Over 200 emails and tweets about it already

So I made a Keyboard option in Zephyr 1.6.1, out in Cydia now. (It also has a few other new features! Check out the change log in Cydia.)

Keyboard option? I don't see any keyboard option in Zephyr. Really need it. Sucks not being able to swipe up from keyboard.
