I Own an Eee Pad Transformer and That Typing lag is Horrendous. Im going to be getting a Gtab 10.1 In the next few weeks and selling my Tab + Dock but thats beside the point. I Made this Thread just for an FYI. for Those who didnt know and wanted a Fix for Typing Lag, Opera Browser Mobile is Perfect. Using Opera Browser Mobile Feels Soo much smoother when typing with NO LAG what so ever. For those who are on ends, You should Try this out. Also an FYI, for people who Think Opera Mobile Just shows Mobile versions of websites, it doesnt. You can set it to a Full Desktop View Now with New Update.
Hope This Helps People out ~ Cheers ~
Edit: Opera Now Supports Flash. Tested and works! yay for updates. Also it Supports desktop without having to go to hidden menu.
"Only Thing Opera is missing is Flash Support."
LOL! That's a pretty major thing to be missing don't ya think?!

LOL Yeah but they cant without Source since Opera is built Differently. Gotta wait for Google to release it, If they do. Theyre being picky with HoneyComb. still the Smoothness is worlds different. you'll notice the typing difference right away.
Look like the new version opera mobile 11.1 has a agent setting, support flash, and has a exit button. So no need to go into about:config to set the agent. Too bad the font is still pretty small compare to default and dolphin HD. I havent tried out 11.1 but with 11 there was still some lag when typing on this forum.

Strange. I Have no Lag. Maybe its because Im using Thumb Keyboard too. I also turned off all Auto Corrections and grammar corrections.
Been using Opera Mobile for a little while. Love this browser, was bothered by the lack of agent setting, but now that can be turned on. Also was able to watch Flash and that worked good.
Really like the browser alot.
I never had lag on my Opera, what settings did you have?

1) typing is indeed much better. no more blue highlights in text boxes which seems to be the cause.
2) text selection is steadier.. the cursor seems to pick the right position more accurately and without the real annoying cursor jumping.
Dislikes
1) when typing this response.. the typing indicator started right in the middle of the reply text box with no way to put it at the top line.
2) font is smaller than stock browser and dolphin HD
3) scrolling is not as smooth as stock browser and dolphin hd
4) loading pages is slower than stock browser and dolphin hd
5) no full screen viewing
6) bookmarks are not as easy to access like dolphin HD
with all that said.. it is such a relief to be able to type without lag and to be able to set the cursor more accurately. I'll stick to opera for now until dolphin or stock gets rid of the lag.

I am also using the thumb keyboard and have xda set to classic view. The lag comes and goes. There is major lag if I have music playing in the background with either default music player or player pro. This lag is on both my TF and 10.1. I havent tried out 11.1 yet, hopefully there lag is gone.
I just started using Opera and the typing is indeed much better. I think everything is crisper looking too. Everything in Dolphin HD seems soft and scrolling in both Dolphin and the stock browser is nothing to brag about. They may scroll, but content loads after.

3.1 didn't help resolve the annoying typing delay on this pad. I played with a Xoom and the small Samsung and it didn't have this problem.
Have there been any patches or fixes released? I was really hoping 3.1 would do it, but it didn't.
I also would love to get this. It's literally the ONLY issue I have with this device.
Didn't someone say turning off some option will help or switch to generic keyboard? I'm not really sure what the issue is, I don't think I've had it.
I noticed this problem pretty quickly and was very bothered by it. I tried out a couple different browsers and found that Opera was the only one with good keyboard responsiveness. While it may not be the best browser in other respects, it trumps all other browsers for this reason.
Now I wish there were an easy option to turn off tap-to-click. Damn thing throws me off everytime I type.
is this with the dock or the onscreen keyboard as well?

Yea, me too. It's pushing me to reconsider the Samsung 10.1.
I've only experienced typing lag on vBulletin based forums sites with the stock browser - and for example here on XDA if you choose the classic skin things improve quite a bit.
Its been mentioned many times before, that the "lag" isn't a "Transformer issue" per-se but a stock browser problem on certain sites. I've tried XDA with Firefox and Dolphin Mini and the there's no real lag that i can see, which further points to the stock browser..
Or are you guys experiencing lag on any web page with the stock browser?? (in which case I'll get my coat)
Try switching to the Honeycomb keyboard instead of the Asus keyboard.

Yes. The amount of lag may vary slightly between sites but it is still there and annoying. Dolphin made no difference for me. I've tested both the Xoom, Samsung and Acer in stores and they don't seem to have the problem.
The best test for A/B comparing purposes is to just type the numbers 1 thru 9 quickly and see what's left when you are done. For me when I'm done "7" is usually on the screen.
Try this temp fix
1. go to google.com
2. select settings in the upper right and click on search settings
3. disable google instant
This seems much better for me. Others may vary.

I've figured it out. It's a text box issue. Go into XDA forum settings. Change the text box to "simple "and skin to classic and enjoy lag free typing on this forum.
I'm pretty sure ASUS will post an update for this typing lag... althought typing lag has improved only slightly by changing user agent to Tablet (or to Android on dolphin browser)... will just have to be patient on the update

I hate the responsiveness of the Asus keyboard, but the stock keyboard does a nice job. I wish the layout was better, but I will take the responsiveness of the stock keyboard over the layout of the Asus one with crappy responsiveness.

Both keyboards are the same for me. I just came back from the mall where I tested a Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab , T-Mobile G-Slate and iPad and none of them had any delay anywhere. I simply go to the forum, log in and type 123456789 in an empty reply to a message and see what's left when I am finished typing. The only problematic one seems to be the Asus.
U know what , out of the typing delay frustration i went on to try my most trusted browser for my froyo phone, miren and walla no lag in typing. But since miren is not build for honeycomb there are some fc here n there as expected. But the feature i love most, the smart full screen still works in honeycomb yay !!!
Part from that, it also doesnt have the image tearing issue when u scroll the browser quickly most probably related to hardware acceleration that is implemented on honeycomb browser.
Conclusion,the typing lag is definitely caused by the browser itself or even the webkit itself :-(
Too bad miren's developement stopped :-(
I think there's more than one "typing delay" issue here.
The one that I'm having 1) does not depend on which keyboard is used, and 2) is just as bad on Xoom. Just go to http://slashdot.org, open any story, and try to post a comment there - and watch characters you type being entered at like 1 per second...
I am typing this on the dolphin browser HD which has just been updated today. I am using Smart keyboard pro and cannot notice any lag. This reply is on the XDA 2010 theme.

I just tried downloading the free trial of Smart Keyboard Pro and keep getting "Purchase Cancelled, error processing purchase."
Hmmm, seems I can't download anything from the Market ... get the same error with Dolphin.
I don't know if you guys know already, but Opera Mobile browser has been updated to 11.1, bringing along a whole lot of goodies, including flash support and user agent changes.
One thing I did notice was that typing lag on facebook seemed to have diminished, this was on desktop view, however still unable to type through some pages with "disqus"
I also found HD 720p videos on youtube has greatly improved! It might be just me, but frames seem to be a whole lot better as opposed to dolphin HD and stock browser.
Frames also drop a bit when viewing full screen 720p in browser, but its watchable.

Temporary Fix to search bar always going to mobile search (must apply apply every time you reset Opera), Credit to iCracked
Hey everyone, I have found a fix for those of you frustrated with the old google mobile search. once you have switched UA to desktop, go to google.com manually, it should load up the full site. Now, using your finger, press and hold over the google.com (website's) search bar, to bring up the menu. Now select "add search engine" then go to your browser search bar and tap the little google icon to bring up a list of search providers and select the new google one, be sure to delete the old one to avoid confusion.

yes, I noticed that too, but I made some video comparisons with a few 720p videos that I watched on different browsers, and it seems Opera seems to perform better. Only my judgement though, and I'm judging on real world performance, not an in app browser test to judge what I can see.
I am running Honeycomb 3.1 stock unrooted
and its fast!!!! not the flash. everything else. no keyboards lag ... Google you need to learn something or maybe buy opera.

Opera is known to introduce its own optimizations, so that's why it's the best in terms of Javascript performance showing zero lag in text input. Finally, Flash support is available! How did they manage to do that without Honeycomb source code?
memory usage is pretty bad tho. 170mb right now on xda wtf?
I'm guessing that the Flash support doesnt work with the hacked/hulu Flash? Opera isn't picking up my Flash but it works in every other browser...
Seems to work well and without any redraw issues when scrolling quickly. Good spot.
nice...will have to give it a try when i get home.
Last night i did a second reset. trying to run my tablet without any downloads for the moment and monitoring performance.
disabled javascript, flash on demand, and the browser was beautifully working. opened up links super fast, then.........
i hit the back button (lower left on screen)...the page does nothing. i press again, and this time it takes me 2 pages further than i wanted...damnit
then when i go from landscape to portrait, the damn quick scroll guide (added in 3.1) is stuck in the middle of the page...
all of a sudden..it crashes. no message, no warning, just straight back to home page. wtf... shame, because i love the layout of the stock browser.
But. Opera..here i come
Loving it. It's REALLY quick, feels 4x quicker than the stock browser, and more intuitive too. I also just tried their desktop browser, Chrome killer or what!!!

Opera keeps on randomly zooming in on certain links when I click them. This is extremely annoying when using the touchpad as the mouse is plenty accurate enough.
Any way to turn this off?
Anyone successfully seeing flash videos in the new Opera using the 10.3 hulu hacked flash?
Google searches from the address bar or search box still use the mobile google site even with the UA set to desktop.
Did they also increase the font size on 11.1? The font size on previous version were much smaller then default browser, and dolphin HD

That's precisely why you don't see any redraw while scrolling. The stock browser uses less memory because it doesn't load the whole page, instead only loading the portion of the page that you are currently viewing. This translates to choppy performance because it has to reload the page every time you scroll up or down, but leaves more memory for the rest of the OS to work with.
I hate tabs on this thing. Hidden, huge and ugly.
Also it renders fonts badly (some letters are to close, some are too bold comparing to stock browser or Dolphin).
scrolling is jittery no where as smooth scrolling as default browser

I like them out of the way. They are hidden on my desktop that sports a full hd screen, I see no reason to keep them on sight on a "tiny" screen
Anyway, they didn't update Opera link, I was kinda hoping they will, so to get the most out of Opera 11.50....... oh well. One day.

The main app any tablet user uses is the Browser I'd assume and unfortunately its the weak spot on Honeycomb.
Viewing most desktop sites is very unbearable (try facebook, XDA, Google Plus) as the page lags, and text input is very difficult as well (huge lag)
Do any devs have any idea how to improve the speed on this stock browser in custom roms or so, I remember a kernel on the Xoom fixed things

If we could get a fix for this I could finally love my tab.
There is a lot less lag on the bonsai rom, but it's not completely gone. Ultimately google will have to be the to fix it.
theyve never mentioned it /acknowledged it
thats the worrying part
Ya know what actually, as,much as i dont like the look of the browser, opera mobile is the best functioning browser ive ever used. There is no browser lag, it render eveything exactly the way my desktop does. Im very suprised that google cannot mirror whatever opera mobile has done.
Ill give you an example of where opera finally got it right...
Try and do a search on xdas site and see what happens. It opens the text box for a second and then it drops the keyboard. Its never works and it is so annoying.
Now try it on opera mobile. Oh my god, it works!
It doesnt work on dolphin, firefox or any other browser ive tried. Opera mobile it works. Can a super sharp coder figure out a way to take whatever opera has in it and put it in the stock HC browser??
it`strange becouse in some forums is all ok, in other the text is very very slow :-(

I tried Opera and everything works great except two things. the first is that often times you will enter text in a text box, and then when you minimize the keyboard to click the submit button, it removes everything you just typed! I had this happen to me about 5 times and then I gave up and uninstalled it. The other issue is mainly a preference, but the tabs suck! Give me real tabs like the stock browser. opera and Firefox have a horrible tab implementation on Android.

Google needs to give this thing a Desktop identity and load the desktop version of the websites. One thing Apple is doing right with the iPad.
Even better get rid of this Chrome Based Android Mobile Browser and put there the real Chrome.

even when I've manually set the useragent to a desktop browser, I still get kicked to the mobile versions of some sites. And sites like...google search, which should know better!
I've tested a bunch of browsers at this point and none of them are perfect. I think dolphin comes closest, but it definitely has little things that are annoying (such as it being way to easy to close the wrong tab)

I am a little confused. I don't have an issue with the browser or the typing...The pages load and scroll perfect and there is little to no lag at all on my typing. There can be a slight lag at times when i use the Keyboard/Dock but that is it.
Does anyone else have no issue?
The stock browser is my preferred browser because it has the best design and features (and the only one that can play 720p YouTube videos smoothly) but has too many glitches to be functional!
First off its the laggiest out of all of them making it almost impossible to type at any fast rate of speed. Second there is a ridiculous glitch that won't allow you to move the cursor by just tapping where you want it to go within the text, you have to actually drag the cursor to where you want it go. But like i said it looks the best, has the best features, formats the text the best, and plays 720p YouTube.
Opera is the fastest. It is the best for text editing and overall speed of browsing. It is extremely annoying though that it won't do things such as auto capitalize or just allow you to push enter to search rather than clicking on the page, and the very layout of the browser seems dated. It also won't play 720p YouTube videos. Opera seems to be the only one that will allow proper handling of HTML forms and text editing, which is very important for posting on the net and making your way through forums.
Dolphin is OK but it has one glitch i can not look past. I can not search from the little drop down menu within forums because it just glitches and closes. Similarly I can't use the login to websites function (such as xda) from the little embedded login on the main page. Its broken.
I guess the most usable is opera. But can some dev not fix the little things that are wrong with the stock browser? I would really prefer to use it instead. Im sure most of you will agree.

I can tolerate the stock browser for the most part. The only one thing I can't really live with is text editing. When I click in the middle of a word to correct it, the cursor doesn't jump when I pressed, it does for a second and then snaps across the screen to where it was previously. Then I have to grab the cursor and drag it to where I want. This gets old.
Sent from my microwave
Just tried both Firefox and Firefox beta and both we pretty laggy. While I could move the cursor to where I wanted by tapping, the browser had no arrow come up to fine tune the location! I could probably deal with this if the browser wasn't so laggy. And im pretty sure there is no flash support with firefox yet, back to the stock browser
On another note, I was able to tap my cursor whereever I wanted just now editing this text with the stock browser! Seems like a random occurance i guess.
Both Firefoxes are shocking, laggy slow and worse of all no flash support if I wanted that I'd have bought an iPad! The work around I use for text entry is to zoom it, bit of a pain in the butt n not perfect but it does sort out the glitch.

Ok, i upgraded from Roach Prime to ICS and now i have these complains:
ICS Browser doesn't have an option to define that i want desktop sites forcing me every time i visit a site to ask for the desktop version in the options, wtf is that??
In Facebook, even if i ask for the desktop version the chat doesn't get docked to the right like in a normal desktop browser, and the options of the chat don't work
Is there any way to solve this, where is the Chrome apk because from market i can't install chrome either.
All this ranting is not because of me, it's my wife's tablet and she is just complaining about all this and telling me that i shouldn't have upgraded and driving me crazy.
Chrome is not the solution because she watches lots of flash videos
I'm quite unimpressed also.
Sometimes I can click "request desktop site" and it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.
I've typed about:debug and changed the user string to Desktop but it doesn't always work.
Also about:debug doesn't always work.
I'm having the same problems with chrome.
Maxthon for tab and Doliphin for Pad are currently my alternatives
Get ICS Browser + from market this adds user agent string option.
I went back to Revolver 3.11 for now.
I had a couple of random reboots on ICS when launching apps, and i notice this occasional annoying screen tear at the top left corner of the display.
Kind of like graphic anomalies you would get from overclocking a graphics card.
Never had that problem on Honeycomb.
I like the new features of ICS, but those annoyances will keep me on HC until they're ironed out.

I find the browser to be good. Opera is crap and can't display website properly. My only complaint is that MyNet is now unusable. Videos stutter and hardly play now where they worked perfectly before.
Me playing with Google Chrome. So farcso good. It is beta still though

I have no problems, and out of all the Android browser, Opera is by far the best at formattaing and reflowing them for mobile and tablets.
Did you set it to Mobile, Tablet or Desktop UserAgent?
or perhaps you are visiting websites written by 14yr bedroom coders that still think IE is the only browser on the planet, and as long as it displays in IE, they can get their money and run...
Either way, your comment stinks of ignorance. Clearly websites written to Webstandards will work in ALL browsers, and the piss-poor browser sniffing that badly coded websites use cause more problems than they fix.

Hmmm about:debug does nothing in stock, and in Chrome, it tries to take me to chrome://debug and says webpage is not available. Any suggestions?
Hi to all, ice cream is very very great, thank you asus, but browser is not very good, is better then honeycomb, but i have some problem with download from file hosting site, download often don't work, browser say "download complete" but it has downloaded some kb of file not all, and if it work download is very slow, with honeycomb, i never had this problem, i've tried other browser, like dolphin, chrome, opera, same problem there also. There is some good download manager let me download everything with it? Sorry for my english, it's not so good

If your disappointed with ICS just go back to honeycomb. Especially if its your wifes tablet. Not worth the aggro, in my experience anyway. Lol
