So I've only had my phone a week or so and I haven't noticed this lag everyone seems so concerned about it. When does it occur?
I've tried a few and found Chainfire's to be the best so far (v1.8).

I can't say I noticed a ton of lag before trying any of these fixes (although I do have ~200 apps installed) but after CF's fix my phone just flies.

Mines just as fast as the video without the fix, I came from a n1 with 2.2 on cyanogen rom and this phone is just as fast. I've been running this same rom since release, rooted and have over 120 apps installed. My market is easily just as fast as the dudes video in the OP.... maybe I'm lucky, or I don't know. I did a fix and didn't realize a difference .
I'd like to see a side by side comparison with a sgs with the lag fix and one without... then again I don't have a gps issue either, well its useable easy.. use it daily.
Ok, so stock Vibrant "lag". What does this mean, precisely? I'm a rooted but otherwise stock JI6, and I don't see any lag anywhere on the phone.
If I were to be experiencing this lag, what would it look like?

Get Xscope V5 (V6 is buggy) browser for free x-labs.net and use it for a day or two. Notice how slow it loads webpages sometimes. Or try Miui Browser (not in market) GUI lags a little too
The LAG that most people are talking about is when you switch windows or open a new app. Sometimes when doing this, the phone will seem to freeze for a moment before going to the new app or page.
With Voodoo lagfix, I have not seen this happen once, where with stock it happened all the time.
If you have rooted your phone and gone down the mod rabbit hole, lagfix is well worth it.
I installed a LagFix recently like I did months ago and saw no huge change in performance (barely any change really) This "lag" problem is about as overblown as it could be. Firefox runs as smoothly as it can (it's not that smooth, beta and needs 40MB of ram on my phone. JFD firmware was did have some lag issues though that we're a problem. Some serious lag was solved by a factory reset or by reloading the OS. The lagfix isn't worth the reduced app space or lesser reliability. If you have no problems with how your phone is running, don't bother with any hacks like that.
Some people randomly got major lag when updating from JFD to JI6. A data wipe solves it.. and they couldn't be happier.
The 'lag' that you see people complaining about does not happen on all phones, all the time.
And I need to remind you to be careful about installing any lagfix. Read up on what it does and how it may affect your phone BEFORE installing it.

Agreed, you might think the phone is fast now but when you install the lag fix you'll definately notice a difference.
It amazed me when I had to go back to stock (after soft bricking my phone) and I had to install rom manager from the market while everything was stock and it was crazy how slow it was.

Gonma take our two vibrants to tmo and use my camcorder to rexord us using different phones after fresh reboots soon to shut up idiots like u.
The lag issue is far from overblown.

Am interested in seeing said video.
Here is a video I took a while back. I'd be interested in seeing the lag. I know someone with a DROID X, behavior is exactly the same when opening apps. It was the same when I installed the lag fix.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl1Q2qlRNwE
I'm on stock JI6, non-rooted.
I think what I'm experiencing is considered lag.
It doesn't happen all the time but it is annoying when it does.
Sometimes it'll take 10 seconds for an app to launch.
It's especially bad if I have more than a couple of apps going at the same time.
Some of this can be worked around, keeping as few apps going as possible. I don't use a task killer, I just back out of apps instead of switching home and keeping the app in memory.
There are certain apps where it seems to be worse in.
The Facebook app is horrible to the point where I don't use it but I'm not sure if that's the app or the phone. I can't scroll a page without the phone locking up for 3-4 seconds. Clicking on anything takes about 3-5 seconds for it to register.
I'm pretty disappointed in Samsung in general with their software. The hardware is great, the software just sucks.
One of these days I'll get around to installing another ROM.

You obviously have something else going on here.. Facebook runs with no problems on my phone. If you flash another rom everything will be wiped, just the same as what I said above. The FB app taking 10 seconds to load and locking up the phone is NOT normal behavior.

I think you're right. It doesn't make sense that facebook would be so bad.
Everything else is pretty much okay.
I think I'm going to try one of the other ROMs. Just need to find some time.
Also, I'm dreading having to go through the whole process of reinstalling and reconfiguring everything. I might have to try titanium backup so that I don't have to do that.
Anyone else having this issue? Its quite annoying.

Try turning off JavaScript; been happening to me, too, and that's all that's helped.
I'm suffering too, cleared cache, didn't help. Unrooted xoom.
Ill try turning that off.
Only problem is limits website use...... not good
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Are there specific sites that have been problematic?
Not having issues here.
When it dies, it just "goes away", right? Not "Force Close"? If so it's the null-pointer exception I've been seeing. JS is causing it, don't know when or why.
'sup KC!
as i have mentioned on other sites, in cases like this its great to have a backup browser. also please post up the sites that are causing issue so others can test. ive not seen this. i have a stock xoom wifi latest updates.
Happens in backup browser too, I'm using dolphin HD as backup.
Happens on mini2.com, BBC sport. Tried turning off Java, but its needed in lots of sites.

Sorry its not a force close it just closes. Have been having the biggest issue with forums like www.thedieselplace.com

Make sure plugins are set to on-demand. I've seen a lot of sites that crash the browser with a ton of flash ads loaded from js.
I have seen this problem as well on many sites including android.net. It just started out of nowhere on Friday evening. I made situations better by clearing the Dalvek cache, but still crashed my browsers (Stock Browser & Dolphin Mini). I even reinstalled my recovery, and the kernel jst for grins. This helped out a little.
I then saw a note about set CPU causing problems so I uninstalled it and installed no frills CPU. This made things even better.
Next, I cleared the caches again which helped more.
Last, I upgraded the kernel to 1.2.2 and this fixed it up very well.

Yeah, Thursday evening for me- I'd just loaded another kernel from upstream right around the same time and had thought that was it (despite nothing in that kernel being related) and even backed up to a known-good kernel and init scripts (which didn't make a difference).
It's a null-pointer in the WebCore browser SDK, which explains why the Dolphin browsers are affected as well (as they also use that SDK). Opera and FF aren't affected by this, but they both have their own particular issues so I'm preferring Dolphin HD instead.
I've cleared all caches and turned on JS again, and have stayed away from sites that I know will bring it up (www.thesuperficial.com in "Desktop" mode is one), but I don't like knowing that it's only a workaround.
What I'm more curious about is if there was an update (to an app; none of the system files seem to have been affected), or a web-page we've all visited that's dropped something into the caches that is tripping up the JS processor. I don't know enough about HTML personally to know where to look.
Subscribing. Have this exact issue using stock browser, Dolphin Hd, and Maxthon on the following sites:
Www.ford-trucks.com/forums (disabling java allows me to read the site for about 5-10 mins before closing. Posting closes browser immediately.
Www.thedieselstop.com/forums (same results as above)
My Xoom is bone stock FWIW...
Having the same problem with both stock browser and dolphin. Really frusterating because the only fix I have is disabling JS but the only reason I bought the xoom was to do scheduling for work and I need JS for that. Hope someone ffigures this out before my return period is up or its bye bye xoom :-(
has anyone else found a remedy for the browser crash? its getting pretty darn annoying.
Are you rooted and running a kernel? Do you have the latest version flash player of installed? Is it only crashing on forums?

Mike,
first of all let me say that z06s ROCK! =)
Anyways, I am running the Tiamat OMG Rom with the built in Kernel. I am running Flash 10.3.185.22 and it seems to be mostly crashing on forums.

Yup, they do . I haven't had for a while though. I got rid of my last Vette about 8 months ago .
Is it only the browser that is crashing or does your Xoom reboot also?

Did you have the c6 or c5 z06? Time to upgrade to a zr1! /offtopic
My Xoom was rebooting before, but now doesn't do it as much and seem stable. The browser is what is crashing often.

To answer your question in my other thread (sorry for the double post), it even happens when I uninstall the Taimat OMG rom and reinstall bigrushdog's 3.1 rom.
according to kcrudup, its a JS issue, but it also happens when I set my JS to on demand.
I've been having this issue for a while, occasionally the phone would lag/stutter when simply swiping through home screens or the apps drawer (With no applications open) it would still run games and apps perfectly smooth though. Only way to fix the lag is to turn wi-fi off and back on, restart the phone, or wait for the lag to go away. Any thoughts on this? has anyone been experiencing this? I tried searching the forum, but couldn't find anyone experiencing this.
Here is a video I uploaded:
you might be better off trying a factory reset tbh. this hasnt been a vocalized issue
Do you have a constant wifi connection during the lag?
On my xperia arc it connects and immidatly disconnects again and because of this the lag appears..

Did a factory reset but lag still occurred occasionally.
If you have a Google Play Music widget on your home screen, that may be the cause of the occasional lag. I removed the widget and so far no lag.
This is normal for an Android phone regardless of clockspeed, number of cores or GPU power.

Never had this issue with my previous devices and others seem to be not having this issue, so I don't think it is normal for an Android to behave this way.
I'll add my voice to this thread.
I've had mine since the weekend. Yesterday night, it started stuttering, in exactly the way you said. I restarted, it went away for a bit, then came back. I tried killing all running applications, made no difference. Another restart fixed it and its smooth as it was again.
Wonder if it is the WiFi causing it?
Incidentally, I was reading some custom kernels fixed the problem for some, but I'd rather not get back into all that nonsense (I've had enough flashing ROMs to last a lifetime thus far).

What's happening in that video is not normal. Everything does appear to remain stock so just keep searching until you fix it. No butter to be found there!
I only get this initially when I restart it and when its on. Swiping first time stutters. Then all ok

So your phone is not rooted and you haven't flashed anything on it? Maybe you can remember when this started and you install some app , maybe it causes this? If so this is not normal! go to the thread dediacated to factory re-flash , this is the only option then

Phone is not rooted or flashed. Might be an issue with one of the apps but it would be very hard to isolate the issue. I have requested a replacement device from Google since I couldn't figure out the cause of it.
Mine does stutter ocasionally but thought that is normal... In xda-app it stutter on almost every single scroll.

It has no problems running apps, perfectly smooth, no lag at all. The stutter only occurs occasionally when simply scrolling through the home screen or app drawer.
It's normal because it's Android.
Android lags. And will forever. It lagged on the G1, it lags on the N4. It will lag on the N5.
It will lag until Google decides to fix Android.
All the people who claim that their device doesn't lag are lying. Simple as that.
I have been using Android N preview 3 since it was released. It seems sometimes that my Nexus 6p will slowdown and lag. As well as random reboot. It almost seems like there is a memory leak of some sort. I find it start getting bad when using Chrome browser, which I am using the latest build of. But it could be something else. Anyone else having similar problems?
I've had it pretty bad when I leave Snapchat running in the background

As N is in beta and for development purposes only you should expect it to not work right. Issue a bug report. It's what Google wants you to do. It's the whole purpose of the beta process.
I realize that and I have provided feedback to Google about it. I was also asking the community if they had related issues as I am.
Over the past two days, I started getting some random reboots. Clearing the cache in recovery seems to have addressed the issue for me.
It's worth a try just to see if the random reboots disappear.
Thank you I just tried it. Forgot about that trick lol
