have to say that mine is definitely more snappy, have done a restart since install? My broswed is much faster as is music ap scrolling video quality in YouTube is much better too. Imo a definite improvement on my machine, there seems to be varying results which i find odd :-(
wow keyboard lag system lag!!!!! NOT HAPPY!!!!
keyboard lag reached a new high when browsing forums and larger webpages.
I AM NOT AMUSED
Slower here, transitions are even worse than before
Quandrant went from 2000 to 1500!
I'm am seeing all of the above - starting to wish I hadn't upgraded. Scalable widgets are great but not worth the slow-down - especially as I don't even have the option of a gmail widget at the moment!

I just received my TF today so can't compare with Android versions before 3.1, but video from YouTube seems to load slowly (lengthy buffering) even for short clips.
I also noted keyboard lag.

I have to agree with you. In general my experience has been pleasant. Although I haven't had the update for very long I have had to force stop the browser as it got extremely slow and wouldn't load pages (at one point the page was just lines of green) properly after a while of use. Has anyone come across this issue?
Well I have to say I'm really happy with the update so far. I've still got my Gmail widget and i don't see any lag at all. Typing has been a breeze, before it used to lag a hell of a lot but I'm typing pretty fast ATM and its keeping up with me no problem. I've also seen that some people cannot get the zinio app to work and I've been on mine and it works perfectly.
I don't understand how some people are getting different things from the same uodate.
Mabee because people rooted or summit? I've not touched mine its stock, although I wouldn't have thought that would have been a problem at all.

+1.. 3.1 is working flawlessly on my TF.. everything seems a lot more responsive
I am a bit confused about the different user experiences since upgrading also. I guess my unit was from one of the first batches as I have had it since a few days after launch, but I haven't put any custom roms or rooted or anything. And still I am getting a worse experience since upgrading, along with missing gmail widget.
Think I will have to do a factory reset and see if that fixes things

+1 works fine and still have the gmail widget
No lag here, it feels more tweaked out, youtube is fast, and the so called jutter effect while using the slider in the browser is'nt that bad as i saw in some vids.
I'm a happy camper with 3.1 (ww version)

After using the TF for some time after boot, the browser seems to force close without any error every time I open it and browse to a webpage. a reboot fixes it for awhile.
The you tube app works fine but I was trying to play a vimeo HD video in the browers and it wasn't pretty. audio is smooth but the video was just black for awhile and then showed up and started chopping.
I'm running the leaked 3.1
Overall performance seems good though.
Just did the ota upgrade last night and been browsing and checking youtube. Everything is working better for me.
Smooth browser scrolling
Can load large webpages
Keyboard lag much improved. Not perfect but workable.
720p video in youtube is smooth
Not fixed though is my weather widget on the home page. Will cut off the temperature a bit if rotating a certain way. No biggie.
Overall, I feel much better about this device.

Just got the Xoom thursday. Been using it since then. Only got a handful applications & songs. Find it laggy & unresponsive sometimes.
Advice? **** for a dual core. Use it only in portrait. Unrooted.

If you have opted not to root or install a custom kernel, then the first step I would take in cutting down on any lag is to install a different launcher.
I can recommend ADW Launcher, LauncherPro and GO Launcher. All are great, very customizable, a good deal smoother then the stock UI on Honeycomb and come in both free and donate versions.
Install all three and try them each out, choose the one that suits you best.

Don't use it in portrait, problem solved!
I am serious though, tablet runs like **** in portrait. It isn't made for it.
I've gone to portrait no more than 2 times since launch. Landscape is much better, afterall.. it is a landscape tab
I'm running 3.1 and I don't really see the supposed UI hardware acceleration improvements. Sometimes swiping screens is pretty fluid and smooth, but many times after getting out of an application, the home screen will stutter into place and some initial swipes are jerky.
I occasionaly use the tablet in portrait when reading comics, using ConnectBot, Nzbget, Words with Friends etc, apps that force portrait and while I agree that it takes longer than it should to switch to portrait, once there it doesn't have any problems.
I am rooted with Tiamat kernel installed and OC'd to 1.4ghz but I don't remember there being any issues even before I did this.
Like P2flol said though, the Xoom was designed to be used in landscape... as all honeycomb tabs have been.

This is a famous problem!! Only use it in landscape while the front camera is on top! This is the only way to get 60fps all others will give you 30fps!
I seen this on youtube. I'll search for a link!

I have noticed that my phone is extra laggy since gingerbread. Does anyone have any ideas about what to do about this? I have turned off animations, live wallpapers, and am running launcher pro (which has been force closing a lot). The home screens and app drawer are occasionally laggy, but the browser is really bad. Again, this is the one area where the iphone kicks the **** out of android. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

LG's crappy code is probably to blame. Flash a custom ROM. CM7 if you want extra features. EaglesBlood 2.3.3 if you want stock feel.
To add to that, am I the only one who thinks froyo was smoother and faster?

I was having the same issues. Just last week I rooted my phone and installed xboarder's rom based on the ota update 1.2.2. My runs smooth, and it runs cold even when I play on it for hrs at a time. My phone started randomly rebooting after the official gingerbread update from LG. Clearly LG programmers are incompetent. My phone runs much better rooted. I suggest you do the same.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I am running xboarders rooted rom. Sorry I didn't mention that. It's not like it's unusable or anything. I just hate how powerful these phones are and that they aren't greasy, buttery smooth. I just feel like android in general should run better than it is today.

What exactly is being "laggy"? Switching homescreens? Scrolling? Opening/closing apps? Other things?
G2X CM7
Try ADW Launcher, I've found it to run better than Launcher Pro.

Try miui or cm. Anything that didn't start life with LG is completely smooth in my experience.

I like Go Launcher...it's really nice on Xboarder rom.
Lag??? There might be something wrong with your phone, cuz this is the fastest phone out hands down, my phone don't lag at all
I recently switched from Launcher Pro to Go launcher. I liked LP but development is growing stale to keep my interest.
None are really perfect but some work better the head others especially at optimizing stuff like switching screens.
I like the Lp widgets but the themes with Go.
AdW launcher has the most options but I can't settle on it for some reason. I bought the EX version.

If you think the iPhones browser is smoother than Android, you obviously haven't used the most powerful Android device to date. The SGSII which uses a hardware accelerated browser. Its browser is the fastest mobile browser I've used to date. It loads pages and flash content twice as fast as my Sensation and G2X. The phone as a whole just feels so fluent. Whether you like Samsung or not, there is no denying they know how to code and optimize Android. In my opinion, they are the best when it comes to optimizing there Android devices unlike HTC and LG.
LG will never catch Samsung in the TV market in terms of display quality and they will never catch them in the mobile market.

Why the hell doesn't android use hardware acceleration natively? Makes me mad.

G2X is pretty close to Galaxy S2 in general speed but stock browser is far behind. Maybe you should try other browsers like Opera Mobile/Mini and Dolphin HD.
I'm using dolphin right now. It's a little better.

The next update will have hardware acceleration. Ill tell you why it hasn't been implimented yet. It is a lot harder to code a operating system for multiple hardware configurations than it is to code for just one. It takes so many more man hours to figure out how its going to work on current handsets and cuter handsets.
In the end, if Android was only on one handset, it would already have hardware acceleration.

I know it doesn't help you a whole lot but in your OP, you compaired the iPhone to Android as a whole. I felt the need to tell you that it is not smoother than Android as a whole because there is a Android handset that bests it when it comes to overall smoothness, not only in the UI but also in the browser. If you would have said, "this is one area where the iPhone beats the G2X" instead of "this is one area where the iPhone beats Android". I wouldn't have brought it up.

On the 2nd ice leak I am experiencing touch screen response lag which is really annoying. When I slide over the screen I have to slide about a 1/4 inch in order to get the response. Has anyone else experienced this? I was thinking about doing a factory reset but I wanted to see if there is any other easy way since I have already installed all the apps. I don't prefer to go back to 1st leak since I have good battery life with the 2nd one. I am also hesitant to try any custom roms currently.
Also, I can't upload any screenshots to the posts through xda app. It says that the JPEG has incorrect file extension. Any advice?

I don't think this is prevalent problem, many users have reported to opposite. Maybe a small oversight on your part?
To op, when first moving to ics, Ive always thought an Odin to stock first was best. Maybe dark side, Odin stock, dark side and then flash modem, and thrn a ucld2 based rom? That may work to alleviate any problems
If anything.... My responsiveness is a little too good. Your problem sounds like a bad flash.
I flashed directly from 1st to 2nd leak. Should I have gone to stock gb first?

I have the Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy s2 i9100 its in the ICS. All the ICS rom's I tried all have that issue(scrolling lag) specially on scrolling widgets
I was able to get the touch response back. Here is what I did
1. Backup call log, contacts, message log, settings, preferences and network settings on kies
2. Factory reset
3. No lag in touch response.
4. Restored everything back from step 1 and found lag in response
5. Factory reset again.
6. Only restored everything back from step 1 except preferences and settings
7. No lag in touch response anymore.
Seems like restoring settings and preferences was bugging up something. However, one thing noticed in ics is the app drawer has better touch response compared to the home screens.
I am currently using Nova launcher and working great.

Mine was pretty bad, but after doing a factory reset twice now, I can report my lag is not bad.
I see a SLIGHT stutter in the opening/closing animations of apps. Definitely lag in the app drawer. The lockscreen is probably where I see the most unresponsiveness/lag. You hit the power button and you have to wait a second, then its fine. The animation from the lock screen to the home screen almost always stutters. The default browser seems about 95% zippy and responsive. Pinch to zoom stutters occasionally. But touchwiz seems very smooth and fluid for the most part. The camera takes perfect pictures. There also is some shutter lag, but not bad.
Overall, the phone is nice, but I am going to be calling Samsung/AT&T and do whatever it takes for them to fix this. This is unacceptable. I noticed that the apps I put on my phone, the more the lag grew. I disabled a lot of the AT&T bloatware and Samsung garbage. Right when I performed a factory reset my phone had ZERO lag. So those getting new devices are probably experiencing what I did. The lag slowly came back, but not as bad as before.
My only reason for not returning it is, once this device gets roms, its going to be a beast. But right now, its performing like a 2011 device.
I reset mine 20 times and it still lags

What about with the lockscreen?
The S2 was such a beast OTB, I actually miss it.
I just got off the phone with Samsung support and they took notes on this issue. Of course, this was the first he heard of it. We gotta inform Samsung there is a problem.

I've read them all, trust me. Nobody exactly describes what is going on with their lag. Some are reporting minor lag, while others are reporting much worse lag. I was hoping everyone call describe exactly where the lag is and when its happening.
i guess i'm lucky. I dont experience any lag, whatsoever.

Dude this is the 2nd thread you made about the lag, theres already 20 threads about it
To be honest I kind of agree with the OP. I've read many lag threads but nobody mentions what's lagging. The only lag I've noticed on mine is the gallery is super slow. At least 3 seconds to load from home. I haven't tried quickpic yet though. Mostly because I'm finding air view useful.
But really, other than the gallery, zero lag.

I deleted about 97 apps / processes and have another 4 frozen, turned animations to zero, forced enable GPU rendering, installed Nova launcher, and am running Trickster..
The entire phone is lightning fast now with the exception of the keyboard opening and closing. The Samsung KB is unusable.. Swiftkey works much better but it does still have very minor lag.
The steps I have taken are insane and should not have to be done on a phone carrying these specs. This phone should flat out scream right out of the box.

Yea I reduced my animations to 0.5x and it definitely helped. Everyone should at least do that much. Most people do that on custom ROMs anyway.
