I've yet to see this happen a single time. In fact, I've not yet seen it suggest a single word that I've entered multiple times, that wasn't in the stock dictionary. That's on default settings, both on the stock firmware, and on the latest available version.
So when typing your password in the box you won't see it, i.g. ********. But will show up on keyboard suggestion.
I haven't used the default keyboard, but there is a setting in one of the honeycomb menus that lets you make your password visible vs having the **** there. Dunno if somehow having that setting to show what you type affects the keyboard recording passwords or not.

This happens for certain text boxes or webpages. When it happens, you will see word suggestions on top of the default keyboard. This happens to me while I was trying to log onto gmail through the built-in browser. I hope there is a fix for this soon because when I'm typing my password, everyone around me can see it.
My passwords did show up in the suggestion area of the ASUS keyboard as I was typing it and thought that was a bit of an issue - think it was eBay or my web mail, but just tested it again now and it does not. I have just updated to the latest firmware so that may have included a fix. Anyone tried it who has not upgraded firmware yet?
Has anyone found a good fix for the touch keyboard lag that doesn't involve rooting the Asus?
I have tried to be patient and wait for a fix to come down the p hope, but it still has not happened.
I bought my Transformer to help me write reviews but typeing anything longer than 2 sentences on the stock browser, Dolphon HD, Dolphin Tab,oreven opera is becoming an excercise in futility for me unless I want to type 1 word every 10 seconds or slower.
I do want to keep the Transformer, but I would rather not beforced to buy the keyboard hardware since at that point I might as well just have a netbook pc
Thanks in advance all.
Are you using the Asus keyboard? I'm using thumb keyboard and don't suffer from input lag.

Keyboard dock will not fix the issue. I am typing this with the dock in Dolphin, and it lags badly. The only browser that doesn't lag is Opera Mini. But of course its a watered down page, which I don't mind so much but frequently the page will not load properly so I quit using Mini as my main browser plus I like to view my sites natively in desktop. If it wasn't for the page loading problem in Opera Mini it would be my main browser because it has not typing lag. To be honest this was a painful process to reply using Dolphin it makes me want to hop over to Mini right now.....

I am using the stock keyboard. Anyone else have more luck using thumb keyboard?
Use Opera browser, it's far superior in every way. and does not suffer lag.
Crazypeter - are you using opera mini or mobile? Desktop or android? I just jumped over to Opera mobile and the typing lag is basically gone (desktop setting). Screen redraw while scrolling is bad in Dolphin also, but much better in Opera. I do like the look of the page rendering better in Dolphin, but the typing lag is the ****s
I just used Hacker's Keyboard to type this in Dolphin HD. I'm typing about 40 words per minute, and by the time I look up from the keyboard to check the spelling and whatnot, everything I've typed is all there. If I watch the text input box while I'm typing, I can see about 200-400 millisecond lags every once in a while, but it's almost imperceptable, and none of my keypresses are missed. I didn't notice any more lag in the stock browser, but I didn't test it very well. I'll be interested to see if Hacker's Keyboard helps for anyone else.
Just posted this in Opera Mini, and the typing lag is indeed gone in that now. (Been a while since I last tried it, it definitely lagged badly at one point in the past.)
Unfortunately it has its own set of glitches that are just as annoying, including the text box totally incorrectly reformatting when scrolling the page, and login fields causing the entire page to flash, reload, and occasionally even wipe out the username you just entered when you tap in the password field -- and finding those bugs took all of 45 seconds from opening Opera Mini.
Dolphin HD when I last tried it was as laggy or worse than the stock browser, and so was Opera Mobile. Guess I need to try them again, because the stock browser doesn't seem to be getting any better, any time soon.

Going to give hackers keyboard a try see if that helps, thank you.
The ICS+ browser on my TF700 has started acting up lately. It was running fairly stable since I got the tab in May but all of a sudden it just closes down on almost every site as soon as the site loads. I am seeing the exact same thing with Boat browser and stock, but so far Opera seems to be working (although no videos will play for me in opera).
I am running Browser2Ram and have add-ins on demand. I have cleared cache, forced stop and cleared cache, and re-installled. I've also re-installed Browser2Ram. Nothing seems to impact the browser crashing once a page loads.
I would like to avoid a factory reset - any ideas?
Started having this problem with stock browser recently
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using XDA Premium HD app
I'm having this too, not with every site but for example Huffington Post does it every time. It happens when the page is almost loaded or right after it completes, then suddenly the stock browser FCs and I'm back at desktop. No reboots or other apparent instability, just this one issue, and a manual reboot doesn't solve it.
Just got my TF700T yesterday from Amazon, a 'C8' that came with latest ICS firmware 9.4.5.26. I don't think this happened at first though, then there was a firmware update for the dock (using my former Prime dock) and I also rooted (but didn't unlock), so coincidentally or not it was after those things that this seemed to start. Just tried a factory reset and this time didn't setup anything extra (no Playstore updates, no Flash, nothing but setup wifi) and am still having same issue so that didn't help.
Are you other folks also rooted, or is there someone else with this issue who isn't rooted, to possibly rule out rooting as being related? I don't see other posts about this, and you both say this just started after having your tablets for a while, so did you recently root or receive this supposed firmware update for the dock?
My galaxy s2 is doing the same. And my touchpad. All of a sudden out of no where. Very weird.

So a factory reset did not help? This is not good news, but saves me the hassle of restoring everything.
I am rooted, but have been since the 1st day. I do not have a dock, so we can rule that out.
From what I remember in the past, when this type of thing happens across websites and across different ROMs, it is due to something in a banner or poster ad that is crashing the app. Just something they'll need to fix.
Not positive though.

Forgot to mention I'm running ad-free as well so not likely due to an ad since those are all blocked.

I only had it one day and hadn't set it up completely, so didn't mind and glad to save others the trouble. And thanks to your feedback it doesn't look like rooting or a dock issue.
Never had this on my Prime, and tried it today before sending it back to Amazon for a refund, but none of the same sites that make the stock browser crash on the 700 did so on it. Chrome is okay though, so for me it's just the stock browser, though I haven't tried any others yet.
Also noticed today the Maps app does this too, takes a couple minutes but suddenly *poof* and it's gone. Regarding ads, had no blocker installed at first when testing after the factory reset, then setup AdAway since and the problem occurred in both cases. Also Maps has no ads so I doubt it's directly because of them.
Mine has started this also. I am rooted but unlocked. I run adfree.
Same problem here. I'm noticing it with cbssports.Com. It's happening with dolphin browser both stable release and their beta. Happens on my tf700 and HTC evo 4G lte, both rooted, ad block.
Sure sounds like ad block is the common thing here! I do not use ad block and haven't had any issues...

Same problem here with the stock browser crashing. Over and over and over on major sites like Engadget.
I am not running any type of ad-block nor do I have hardly any apps installed nor running. My TF700T is pretty much stock as all it gets used for is an internet surfer and medial player.

Maybe. Mine closed out of the stock browser like twice today, but the problems been happening much more frequently with my phones browser lately. Both have ad blocking enabled, so that might actually be the culprit.
Any users who don't use ad blockers having this problem?
EDIT: Just saw the post above mine, interesting... Can't definitively blame ad blockers. I wonder what's going on.
I am stock, not rooted, not running the ad blocking thing and experiencing the incessant browser crashing this past week

I dont have a transformer but I am having a similar issues, google browser started crashing about 4 days ago. After either changing the user agent back to android from desktop or disabling java script my browser no longer crashes. I tried a complete factory reset and multiple roms without luck. Firefox also started crashing, after installing add block plus no more crashing so far. I have a suspicion its an add/banner site causing the issue.
Can someone explain how to catch this with logcat since I can easily replicate the problem. Maybe we can see what is crashing in the logs.
I decided to test this a little further - here's what I found... It seems completely dependent on what browser you use. I have the same crash issue with the Stock browser, Chrome and Overskreen, but NOT with Boat Browser. I've also noticed that I don't seem to have the issue with the stock browser as long as I don't tell it to use the desktop version of sites. If I look at a logcat when the issue happens, I see a ton of debug messages about "libchromium"... At first I was thinking that un-installing the latest Chrome update may fix it, but that is not the case (it doesn't fix it).
Is it possible that the last Chrome update updated some OS file and simply un-installing the Chrome update does not actually revert that OS file? Even with Chrome disabled, I still see the problem in the browsers mentioned above...
My suggested work-around, at least for now, is to use Boat browser until the problem gets resolved, which is hopefully soon.
How the hell do we inform Asus of these types of issues?? I wish there was some way to report bugs directly to Asus...
Maybe I'll try actually un-installing the Chrome browser completely (since I'm rooted, I should be able to do that). I'll report my findings. This is a pretty bad issue!

I've found that the easiest way to see what it going on when it happens is to use an app called AirTerm - it's a "floating" terminal emulator. So, I start that up, which is visible in a window even while using the browser, and simply watch what happens in the logcat output while reproducing the issue (which is pretty easy, as you've mentioned)... According to what I see in the logcat output, it sure seems related to Chrome...

Hmm, it seems that simple disabling the "Enable JavaScript" option sees to solve the issue (browsing is a lot faster too, although I'm sure this will cause loss of functionality too).... I was not able to make it crash after disable JavaScript though...

Ok, last update (I promise!)... I was incorrect earlier - the Chrome browser seems to be un-affected by this issue - I'm seeing the issue only in the stock browser and Overskreen and only if JavaScript is enabled (I only tested Stock, Chrome, Overskreen and Boat).
Chrome and Boat don't exhibit the issue at all, even if JavaScript is enabled.
Again, my recommendation would be to just use Boat browser until this issue is resolved. Chrome on the TF700 just sucks (in my opinion) - no flash, slow scrolling, etc. Boat allows for Flash and scrolling is nice and fast.
There may be other browsers that work ok as well, but I only tested with these four.
Hope that helps!

Crashed my browser about 10 times in the past hour. I'm wondering if its a hardware problem since the 300's I used weeks ago never had browser crash issues.
I don't run adfree. But several android sites crashed me, and can confirm huffpost articles crash it after a few minutes of being on the page
Guys, it has nothing to do with adfree, and nothing to do with Asus or even our device specifically. The same websites that will crash the stock browser on our device will crash the stock browser on CM10 on my Galaxy S3. It's a java script error that's causing it, and it's happening across many websites. I'm investigating whether it's a Facebook widget that's found on many websites that's causing the crash. Nothing conclusive yet though. Still experimenting with some logcats after experiencung crashes from different sites.
I completely agree (see the way-too-long post above) - disable Javascript in the stock browser makes the problem go away, so it's definitely javascript-related.
What's strange is that Boat browser (as well as Chrome) can view the same sites without issue, so it actually seems to be a bug in the stock browser (or maybe the stock webkit that a lot of browsers use)...
I'll just use Boat and forget about it! It's a much better browser anyway...

Mine is fast as well...I did manage to make it slow down.....while running Nova Prime with 7 screens and close to a dozen widgets running...but even with all that running, it would still play a full size AVCHD format .m2ts file in BS Player butter smooth.
I have no "buyers remorse" what so ever. I think Asus put out a rockin' tablet with the 700. In my experience with it so far...what is not to like?

You spend most of your time switching between home screens, which is not a big challenge. Instead, try launching and using actuall apps and games, especially when doing a file operation in the background. You'll see the lag that people are talking about.

Honestly there is no difference. Currently i have the xda app open, along with both stock and firefox browser( firefox is able to play espn videos while the stock is just fast), my google voice and talk are also open ( talking to friend in NY and texting mom), i just opened YouTube to look at the comment left on the video you just viewed and i also have the world of goo going...all with that live wallpaper you see in the video. Honestly i have pushed this tablet to the limits and i still dont see any problem.

As was stated, if you want to prove or disprove IO issue, do run 17 apps, that's mostly memory. Kick off a large download then launch a browser an see how it loads and even after loading how it scrolls and respond to link clicking
While my tab generally performs well I did notice some IO lag come back with the JB update.

Great idea. Perhaps ones concerned about performance should do the same and show exactly what they are seeing. Mine is just like yours. I now even run on power save as jb took away the navigation lag during the mode. Chaos rings even runs fine on the power save.
Try actually using the tablet, like using Maps for directions, finding a place, then use the browser for reviews, info, etc and maybe Yelp, Tripadvisor etc for other information. The tablet grinds to a halt once the OS has to start removing cached processes to free up memory, which again triggers a ton of (SQLite) I/O operations which is really bad on the useless NAND that Asus chose for this otherwise great tablet.
On another note, I was typing up this post (well, about the same) earlier and the tablet froze, and rebooted, stuck at the Asus logo. I had to reset it by holding down the power button for 10 seconds. The latest JB update has definately NOT fixed these freezing/rebooting issues.

Posted new video. I really don't want to make a 20 minute video detailing every single thing i do on the tab. The apps you see loaded are on the lower end (number wise) of apps i usually have loaded at once. This tab has completely replaced my laptop so i am always on it. Basically take what you see in the video, add like 4 more apps and expand the video by an hour or so and this is the SAME performance i get...No slow down or glitches. Infinity FTW!

Actually I spend most of my time in my e-mail apps answering email or in a word or spreadsheet app typing stuff or digesting LARGE .pdf files. I haven't installed any games yet and probably won't. I game on my PC....(mostly FPS).....now if I could get Tribes Ascend to run on this Infinity gizmo...SHAZBOT!
Any machine can be made to lag, stutter or crash. The TF700 does what I need it to do quite well.....could it be smoother?.....sure...but why, and how much would it cost?
A challenge? Download an 8+ gigabyte multi-volume RAR archive over wi-fi and unpack it. (not only CPU intensive, but the read / write operations are pretty staggering as well) ....
The Infinity did a fine job of it and in short order.

I guess no one noticed the tablet locks up for 10 seconds in the video? When the OP taps the URL bar in the browser at ~0:53 the tablet stops responding completely. So you spent a minute and a half swiping between homescreens and tapping the notification tray, but of the 30 seconds you spent doing anything else, the tablet was unresponsive for 10.
That's proof there's no lag, right?

Thanks for your response, I assume other file types are fine on kindle. However, normally I use PDF which causes lag during scrolling up and down the pages, and scrolling to next page sometimes freezes up also.

Wait what? lol the tablet didnt lock up at all, i was actually deciding what website to go to while at the same time thinking of the next app to load. Also the first time i put my finger to the bar i didnt actually tap the screen. The second time i had to look down a the keyboard while holding the phone to type. The videos is blurry, but the tablet immediately responds to my touch with a prompt to type. No lock ups or slow down

Hi guys, I'm posting this here as I can't seem to find anyone with the same problems as me and I am hoping someone here can help me.
Everytime I run Dolphin Browser (ver. 9.3.1), there is a MASSIVE keyboard lag whenever I want to enter anything in the address bar. The keyboard will only show up after a few seconds (ranging from 1-4 seconds) and when I enter the address, some alphabet inputs will be missing as it was not registered by Dolphin due to the lag. So for example, if I entered yahoo.com, only yo.com will be registered on the address bar, eventhough I typed yahoo.com.
General speed of loading the websites is not affected and is quite fast. It's only when there is a keyboard input involved, then it lags like hell.
I have tried tweaking my Infinity with System Tuner Pro to increase the memory limit of Dolphin browser but it doesn't seem to work. I also have Browser2Ram (as part of Cleanrom inheritance 3.3) but nothing seems to work.
Searching for similar problems faced by other owners of Inifinity also turned up empty so I hope someone can help me on this.
I have a rooted Asus TF700 running on Cleanrom inheritance 3.3 ODEX version, but I also experienced this problem when I was running my TF700 unrooted.
Please help! It's driving me crazy as I'm a big Dolphin fan!
Thanks a bunch!

Well i'm facing the same on stock. So i guess its time to write to asus.
I have the same issue with Dolphin as well. I've had it stock and also with CROMI. I have switched to the stock browser which, with CROMI, is so lightning quick and lag free. I also like Dolphin, and still use it for some websites that work better with it or I need Dolphin's add-ons for, but mainly, I use stock and am very happy.
But, no, you are not alone with Dolphin lagging badly with our device.
Perfect on my S3. It is exactly as you say on my tf700.

Odp: [Q] Massive keyboard lag with Dolphin browser
Finally someone else has the same problem as me. This is my #1 issue with everyday use of Infinity. Yes, I could switch to Boat or other brower. But I got used to Dolphin interface.
I wrote about the problem to Dolphin developers twice. They acknowledged it but did nothing about it.
The lag is probably related to the way they programmed Google search suggestions. Try disabling suggestions from Google in Dolphin preferences, the lag will be almost done. All other suggestions (history, bookmarks) will also be disabled.
The problems seems to be as follows. You type a letter. Dolphin looks for search suggestions, displays them, then reads another key, and so on. If many keys are in the buffer, it gets slower and slower. If you type really fast, the keyboard buffer overfills and some keystrokes are lost.
If you use onscreen keyboard, this problem does not occur. With the keyboard dock, you usually type faster. Passing the keystrokes through USB may also account to this. Correct me if I'm wrong.
To sum up: everyone who has this problem, please send a report to Dolphin developers (they have form on their web page). Maybe if more people will report, they will finally do something about it.
I would strongly suggest you guys to use stock. Its almost bug free and also fast enough. On mine it displays the content faster than dolphin and the page load is faster than dolphin. I have timed the loading of all the websites i frequently visit( yes I cleared all history, cache, etc. and also disabled pre loading) and dolphin took almost 5-10 seconds more than the stock browser to load up the pages. You can even try chrome. Its good after the latest update. I didn't try timing it but its better the previous version.
It has been brought up before that Dolphin is less optimized for tablets than it is for the smart phones. Might not be entirely the problem with the device.
