Google Currents lags - Asus Transformer TF700

When I open Google Currents and use it in landscape mode it lags like nothing I've ever seen. In portrait mode everything is fine.
Does this happen to someone else?
It just happens on my Transformer on my Nexus it's fine.
I already cleared cache and data.

Flipboard is good, however I prefer viewing in landscape mode. That is the only reason why I still use Currents.

Yeah, I tried to download Flipboard from the Play Store and it said not available. I'm not seeing much lag at all on Currents. It's quite a bit smoother than on my phone.

Nebucatnetzer, I have the same problem and I'm using the Asus Tranformer Infinity. Did you ever find a solution?

And the award for the fastest hijacking goes to......... "Google Currents lags" Thread. haha
I suggest that someone start a thread for what news app do you use (and please put up a poll, unlike the launchers thread, otherwise you get 100 responses that say "feedly" or "Flipboard"
Ok, back to the point of this thread I have used Google Currents on a couple different devices and its a terrible application. Its slow, clunky and difficult to navigate. Also, it takes up a TON of space over a short time. So yes, Google Currents lags.

Goes to ian1 he didn't even bother with the question.
I have no problems with currents beside the lag. Which is IMO not because of cached rubbish. I can take a video of what I mean.
The only other thing which I would like to have, is the option to hide read articles.

Google currents works very smoothly in landscape on my infinity.

So here is the promised video.

Yes, Google currents lags in landscape as does Google plus for me. I don't know if they aren't optimized or what.

that launcher didn't look like the ICS launcher i have seen.
That is only one post that is deep inside the thread which means some may have seen it but not all and as I stated in the first post. No flaming, you want to troll around. Then go somewhere else

Google Chrome

Any stable Google chrome apps available for infuse? Can one be developed to work on infuse?

Get CM9
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Get cm9? You really might think about spitting off suggestions like that. ICS is in its infantile stages for the Infuse. Suggesting someone going to a partially broken firmware to get a browser? Not the best answer.
The answer should be...
Currently, from my understanding, is that Chrome only runs in an ics environment. The only way to use it would be to upgrade to the ics firmware. Now be careful, they just put up an alpha build in the ics thread found on general last night, but not everything is working. I would check it out and see if its worth it to you. The pluses of the browser, in my mind, would be negated by the minuses of the non working functions of Ics. But, the choice is yours. Good luck.

Try CM9. I is up to you however, but from my experince its worth it. Camera will be working very soon, jt fixed it but is finishing up the other stuff of the rom. IT is pretty quick, and runs nice. I am running chrome on it right now, and its ok. Some progress needs to be made, can be laggy. It is still in Beta. Sorry, porting it to ginger is not possible, you would pretty much have to create a whole new browser.
Sure...give it a shot. Why not.
When on the Inspire, I was all giddy about ICS when it first came out and flashed right away. But found that even the tiny things...camera, video...made it not a viable option for me. I use my camera daily (in the classroom, with children...) so no camera is a deal breaker for me. Plus, from my use on the Inspire, Chrome is not that great...but that's just my opinion.
Now i dont get it .....im running chrome right now on my infuse...is it a mock up copy or what ??? I got the apk from this forum.. i will try to post it in the morning

Haha kind of like me. Except camera will work anytime now, so thats not as bad. Should have listened to dman and you, its good but doesnt need all the hype. And chrome... well me it sucks, load speeds are fast but it is just too laggy, not like the pc and mac counterparts.

Eh, it's probably slow on every device in Alpha. It's not worth having, but I recommend CM9 anyways. I have Chrome, but the default browser is faster. Chrome is sluggish.

A bit OT, Tapatalk?

Anyone having an issue with tapatalk? I can't search for forums (searching for forums to subscribe to, not searching for posts/threads...although I don't think that's working either). Also the forums I'm already subscribe to are very very slow to load. Notice tapatalk.com isn't coming up either....
Mines not working either

I always have issues with Tapatalk. I've regretted spending money on it since I bought it so long ago. It seems the developer just can't fix the issues. I always haven issues with pictures loading, force closing on picture heavy threads, it'll randomly kick me out of a thread for no reason. These problems have always persisted, regardless of my device and set up.

Same here. I hate this stupid app but there is no other choice. It's a crap shoot if pics load or not and it constantly stutters while scrolling. The TT devs are pretty much worthless.

The best feature is that it saves your place when returning to the search list, what a PIA it was constantly scrolling back down a few hundred results. Now they just need to let you filter search results by 'free' like on the website.
I had this on my mind since last year.
I'm on GB (FB's VB) and multi select doesn't work, I have to delete one by one or I'm doing it wrong.
Thanks for the announcement.

The way multi select worked for me is you long press your first item till it selects, then you can select other items.
Hope it helps.
