Sorry if this has already been posted but I did not find it. I have a question about the keyboard. I mainly use my phone for text messaging. However many of these ROMs have a problem with a lag when sliding out the keyboard. I get a new message and hit reply and it takes up to 10 seconds for me to be able to type my text with the slide out keyboard. I have tried numerous different ROMs with differing amounts of free memory but every one seems to have this lag. I'm not sure if this is my phone or what. It even did this with the JUSTME ROM that was stripped to the bare minimum. If someone could tell me how to fix this issue or point me in the direction of a ROM that doesn't have this problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
I've had a similar problem with a few of the ROMs out there. The keyboard has nothing to do with the lag in my place though... it's all a matter of how I go about replying.
If I get a message and hit "Reply" I find myself waiting impatiently for the program to load and the app to become responsive enough for me to type my reply. I found a while ago that if I launch the messaging app either through the Programs screen, via the Start Menu or by pressing the messaging button on the side (this is what I usually do) that the program opens quickly and I can get in and open the message and reply pretty quickly.
It's not a fix, but I hope it helps.
I don't do a lot of texting, but I don't think I've had the issue with the JustStable ROM at all... might be worth taking a look at too.
I found that if I limited the apps on the Today screen in 6 and 6.1 to 3 apps (messaging, calander, and time/date) my screen switched very fast when I flipped out the keyboard.
Hi,
Relatively new the android, I have been using Nokia for the most time.
Lately on my captivate I found out that when I press the google voice app it takes substantially longer to open. I mean much longer than other apps - maps, gmail etc. I am on WIFI, so it shouldb't be a connection problem.
Has anyone seen this problem?
Thanks!
Occasionally, when I do open the app, it takes a while. This is usually after a reboot, however. After the first open, the app backgrounds and opens up very quickly.
Thanks.
But this happens to me all the time, it takes like 3 seconds to open.
I to have the same issue. A good 3-5 sec delay. I am using LauncherPro, have no idea if that has anything to do with it.
yea, i am using launcherpro too..
I noticed this too. I just made a habit of hitting home to get out of the app rather than back-ing out and closing it. If it's cached/running it opens instantly.
Also, I applied RyanZA's ext2 lagfix and it fixed this completely so it's probably an I/O "issue".
that sounds like a good idea.
I haven't used any fix yet. I think i am going to wait for froyo or custom roms to come out and see the difference.
now my phone is completely stock not rooted or anything.
Am I the only one who's browser had been made useless by 3.2? Whenever I scroll the screen redraws in large blocks, or the entire page flashes white and takes several seconds to redraw the entire thing. The browsing experience gets slower and slower until the browser closes. Not a force close, it just disappears, leaving me at the desktop.
I even did a security wipe, thinking maybe that might fix it. No luck yet.
I have seen a few issues where the browser just vanishes and my tab state is lost. Some times when watching flash videos they disappear now, and this may be more of a flash issue but sometimes if I move my tablet and it tries to reorient (landscape/portrait) flash will just give me a big '!' and I'll have to start over. Just a couple things I've seen since 3.2.

I have add-ons set to on demand, so I doubt flash is whats causing the crashes.
I hate the lag when you type and I find the fact that you can't download certain kinds of files just stupid. I switched to opera mobile for said reasons. I wish they would fix and improve the stock browser because I like how fast it is in general (apart from the horrible typing lag).

Same problems here also.
Found something interesting: the dock is causing the problem. When undocked, the tablet performance is great. When docked, the performance tanks (in addition to the browser redraw problems).
Hope this gets fixed in the next patch.
I have been using Dolphin browers & it isn't much better. The typing lag is better but it still has issues. I'll be typing along & then come to apoint where I cannot backspace. This will happen with both the stock & Dolphin. I have used Opera but it is a little slower. I have also had the stock browser just close on me too like others. I am not sure if there is abrowser issue or a Honeycomb issue. I wish these issues would get resolved.
Also to note my issue have be worse since the three.two update. See I cannot even type numbers. I should be this & just want to toss my trasformer out the window.

Same issues undocked here. Browser crashes constantly. Notice it on forums usually. Typing is fine, but deleting or backspace sucks ass.
I wish the browser would just not crash. The only thing that really pisses me off.
I wonder if the Xoom is having simular issues.

This has been happening to me a lot lately. Pretty annoying that's for sure. I also have some issues with trying to search in the web address window. It just doesn't work right. Sometimes i get unexpected operations too.
The closing is mostly when browsing forums...what I do quite a bit unfortunately.
ok so it's not just me! I just got my tab a couple days ago and was shocked at the browser performance. Anyone have same issue in custom rom?
Im having the same keyboard lagg, and poor browser performance. Using Dolphin for tab now which is a bit better. Also im using hackers keyboard(market). Together This increases the responsiveness, but its still poor for a tablet with these specs. Especially flash video playback is way better with dolphin.
Im also interrested if custom roms have these problems too.
hi everyone!
just want to bump thhis thread, I have had this problem for some time. i don't like to post on the forum, i just search. However, this is pissing me off beyond belief!
It happens on both my stock browser and dolphin for pad, like has been said, mainly happens on forums (I do spend most of my internet time on them). Most times i'll be scrolling a page or trying to press a link, other times i am not even touching the tablet and turn off
can anyone shed some light on this for me please? is there anything i can do to stop this?
Download & install Opera. It is by far the best browser out there. The stock browser is just plain horrible & the Dolphin tablet browser isn't much better.
Try Firefox. I think the best browser.

Im on revolver Tom
Blades kernel
Thumb keyboard
And the improvement is clearly present. No lag while typing.
I had tried clemsy kernel 20 and 21 but noticed my page loads were extremely slow plus several times they would just hang forcing me to reboot.
I tried dolphin..stock..and opera and all lagged bad
I'm now back to browsers and have yet to have a major issue. Was actually tuning fantasy foootball flash app off their website with no issues.
A little off topic but is there a way to always keeps the toolbar docked on dolphin? I would also like a hone button always present. Is this possible?
As above im on revolver with blades and im still getting block loading and type lag on some sites. especially the ones with a chat box. Only really appears to be forums. I dont get it with opera but its the time it takes to load.
I have the same issue. The stock browser or dolphin for tablet shutdown without any message (no force close), principaly on forum too...
I'll try Opera to see if it's better.
Any news from Asus about this problem ? Is it a know issue ?

I bought the tf700 about a month and a half ago after waiting close to 9 months for it. Unfortunately I am experiencing some problems, but I am not sure if the tablet is defective or I'm doing (maybe not doing) something to cause these issues. I have noticed people on other threads are experiencing some of the same issues, but not all of them. The problems include:
*browser constantly crashing/closing
*having to touch the screen multiple times for it to respond
*some websites or appls reloading/flashing multiple times while trying to scroll or type something
*while trying to type, the cursor moving around, jumping to the front of words or deleting words
*taking quite a while for webpages to load
*screen freezes
I really hope that these are problems tat can be fixed because I anticipated this tablet for so long. I find myself frequenly just giving up and switching to my desktop for faster results because it is extremely annoying trying to google something and the page closing or have to retype words in mulitple times because they get erased while typing. I have given up on trying to use the facebook app because the page gets all jumbled up or freezes constantly.
Please give me any advice or suggestion to how to fix these problems or do I just own a defective device?

perform a hard reset and see if that helps. it won't erase anything so no worries.
power down tablet
hold power and vol down until you get to a boot screen
let go and just let it boot the rest of the way
and if you're using the dock, turn off the touchpad when you type. i find that i always hit it which is why my cursor jumped around. not sure if it's the same thing you're seeing.
Thank you! I am going to try that right now!!!! I dont have the keyboard dock =( so maybe I am hitting the screen or something but I have tried to type letter by letter before and sometimes it happens then too. AHH
Hard reset in prgoress..
the issue with the browser closing seems to be an android issue right now and not exclusive to the tf700. I've seen threads complaining about the same browser closing issues on other devices and have seen it myself on my phone as well as the infinity. It doesn't seem to be isolated to one browser either.
So I've been using my S6 now for about a month I would say, and the problem I'm having is the stock messaging app seems to have slowed down tremendously. I used to be able to use it smoothly transitioning between SMS & MMS, but now scrolling lags quite a bit.
The main problem I am having though is viewing pictures. Whenever I get sent a Picture Message and I tap to enlarge it, it takes anywhere between 8 - 15 seconds to enlarge. At first I thought my phone wasn't registering my touch so I tapped the screen a few more times. That didn't help, it still takes a long time to open the picture. The problem for some reason seems to be worse when in a group message.
Any one else experience this issue? Is there something I can do to remedy it?
I guess a simple solution would be downloading a different messaging app, but I just wanted to keep it simple and use Samsung apps.
Thanks for the help.
No, I'm not having this issue at all. I've had my phone for a month.
