I've been using ADW both on the stock 1.47 ROM and now on CM6 (both nightlies and now RC1) and have found that as the day goes on the performance of ADW seems to suffer. This is particularly noticeable in the "return to home" performance (i.e. the time it takes for the phone to return to the main home screen after pressing the home button). Performance is restored with a reboot.
As I stated, I've noticed this on multiple configurations (and I always do a full wipe between installing new ROMs).
Does anyone else notice this? I did a quick search and didn't see anything.
I am having the same issues. It seems like touch lag switching between home screens.

Yup, after my phone has been on for a while, it takes forever for the home button to return me to the home screen. Running CM6-RC1.
I seem top be having the same issue. Nightly 28#1

I have an unrooted HTC Incredible that up until recently was running Go Launcher EX. I uninstalled it because I've been having problems with the recent update and lag that was making my phone unusable. However, since I uninstalled the launcher, every time I leave an application, whether I hit the home button or back out of it, it reloads Sense. Luckily it doesn't take more than 10-15 seconds, probably because I only use 3 screens, but its annoying and makes it hard to use the phone quickly. I'm trying to use the home function as little as possible right now by using the app switcher and notification bar to get around but I'd really like full function of my phone back!
Does anyone know any fixes?

I'm running the latest version of BM's MIUI ROM but every launcher I've tried ends up running really sluggishly and/or restarts itself, especially when closing the app draw. Rebooting the phone doesn't seem to cure the problem and I have now tried the Go Launcher and the premium ADW launcher. The standard MIUI launcher also seems sluggish when scrolling through the home screen pages although not to the same extent. Anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions that I could try?
Pressing the home button deposits me on the blank home screen as the icons slowly reappear.
Do a full wipe and try. A full wipe should fix it.
Or... You can use my MIUI SwAT rom!
Ok, will try and full wipe. If that doesn't work I'll give your ROM a whirl
When I press the recent apps key while in the home screen, the lower part of the screen flickers. This happens when there are a lot of apps on the list. Has anyone else noticed this problem? The flicker is more like diagonal.
Here's a video:
I've seen it before on my tf101 as well

This is really annoying. Any idea how to fix this?

No idea. Hopefully Asus releases kernel source soon so devs can find all the screw ups.

Doesn't happen on my TF. You are probably using some old app that is causing issues on ICS.
Appears every now and then for me too. Doesn't annoy me too much, but I think there will be some minor updates by Asus that fix some bugs. I'm really curious how the support of the TF101 will be in the future, as there is the newer Prime now (and some other Tablets coming). What do you think, will we see official Jelly Bean for the TF101 by the end of the year or so or will we need to use CM10?
This happens on my TF also. I have noticed that the YouTube app also sometimes makes a similar graphical effect, and then recent apps + being in the YouTube app usually makes the tablet go crazy.
This is also very similar to the 'screen tearing' seen on the TF201, which leads me to believe its software, and will be ironed out by asus in time.
There is no problem with the recent app list on my transformer, but I've this in You Tube homescreen - the You Tube logo on the upper left corner is flickering.

For those who are not experiencing this, are you using a custom rom or stock? Also, this happens if there are more than 7 items on the recent apps list. I think this problem is related to the launcher itself. I tried iLauncher, and there is no flicker on the screen when I press the recent apps button.
I tried the SPB launcher and seems to be working fine.

Using Them EOS ROM, have the flicker with stock launcher and Apex but not with ADW EX launcher.
Guess since Apex is based on the stock it's happening with it too
I have it when I type on YouTube sometimes..

I've been through different ROMs -- ARHD and Revolver but same thing happen. I noticed though that this issue does not occur when the TF is upside down.
I finally found a temporary fix: hold down the key a little bit longer but not longer that it will take a screenshot. I hope this will be fixed on the next updates..
is a mistake that will have to fix asus.
I put several roms, several launchers ..
and any such error does not happen, except if I open more than 15 different applications, the error appears!
if placed vertically does not appear that annoying error.
Never had that issue. Not on stock (.17) or team EOS nightly which Im running now.
Im using nova launcher.
So, I've been having issues with my TF101 for a while now. At first I thought it was ROM related, but I've seen this issue across a couple different ROMs, including the stock ICS update. The issue is that frequently, the launcher will crash and restart when swiping off the main homescreen. Other times, the UI overlay will crash. That is to say, the icons and everything will vanish, but the background will still be there. Sometimes a widget might be frozen on the screen (it's visible regardless of swiping, and you can't interact with it). I can still swipe, the background is still visible scrolling, and if you know where something should be, you can even tap it and it will open. Has anyone else experienced this? I've noticed the issue in the stock ICS launcher, Apex, or Trebuchet. When it happens, I either have to restart or at least re-apply the system them. Even the lock screen UI vanishes.
FWIW, my TF101 is a B60 unit, rooted, running RaymanFX's CM10 (4.1.2) ROM, and TWRP.
So no one's seen this kind of issue before?
I have a similar problem. Hitting the "home" button (it never disappears) solves the problem, no need for other apps or reboot or anything. I just plain hit the home button and everything reappears.

Sometimes, my UI vanishes, but if I wait about 10 seconds or so, it comes back. I guess the launcher crashes, but is automatically restarted by the kernel. I use the K.A.T kernel, maybe that is better with the re-launch when it crashes?
Current setup:
ROM: RebelROM Senseless Jelly Bean (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2120688)
Kernel: ElementalX 5.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061577)
Note: I don't think this issue is ROM or Kernel specific, as I've noticed it on another ROMs and Kernels (including the stock kernel), but I wanted to mention my setup anyway.
Over the last few weeks, I've noticed the one-and-only time my phone seems to noticeably lag is when pressing the home button to leave an app - sometimes it takes as long as 2 or 3 seconds for my home screen to appear. What is odd is that I don't see that lag if I exit an app using the Back button, it only happens when using the Home button. The type of app doesn't seem to make a difference, either.
Has anyone else noticed this? I swear the lag has only shown up in the last couple of weeks or so, but maybe I'm going crazy and it's always been there.
Re: [Q] Phone lags ONLY when pressing home button
I've used rebelrom with that same setup (and other versions of elemental) for a long time and I have not seen that issue... It is indeed odd though... Have you nandroided and seen if it does it on another sense rom with sense removed? Also, which launcher are you using?

Nova Launcher, though I've also seen it on Action Launcher.
I haven't tried another Senseless ROM, maybe I will when I get the chance.
So, I think I finally figured this out.
It's the weirdest thing, but a couple days ago, I tracked it down to the “List” App Drawer style in Nova Launcher. I can’t explain why this was causing it, except that perhaps I had too many apps installed and it was trying to keep them all in memory or was re-loading that list every time I hit the Home button.
Either way, now that I’m back to the standard “Horizontal” App Drawer style, all appears to be well.
