With the changes to WebView and 3.1's updated CSS support, I believe it's corrected many of the issues with XDA's forums on the Xoom.
I loaded it up and it's running 10x better. I can finally scroll smoothly through the forums without having to resort to the 'XDA Classic' theme.
This is great
But if on the verizon network, the forums suck up data quick with advertisements and peoples unnecissary footers.

my ability to enter texts in the forums after upgrade stinks. Such a lag when typing to words being displayed
Browser rendering in general is much improved.
The vBulletin typing on sites like XDA is still unbearably laggy. There's a 2 second delay between key press and the letter appearing.

Glad I have seen this thx, thought my xoom was laggy, but if iit is ononly xda.......happy days.Except the whole double lletter ttyping tthing.... is there a fix for that?
i was gonna say the opposite really. Browsing these forums is unbeleivably laggy and typing messages is horrendous.
I was thinking maybe that was an issue with using the us software on my xoom, but I guess not.
Using Opera MINI on problem forums , seems to solve the input lag.
Hopefully the stock browser someday will work better.
browser is ok with the forums but the app always fc's when i login then try to open a thread
deleting text in a reply box is a nightmare
My experiences are similar. The text inputs are terrible... but with 3.1, the forum page rendering is much faster.
by the way, is it just me or it is common issue that my xda app downloaded from the Market ALWAYS fc if I logged in then next time I open it, I am guest in that app again...
In that way it successfully blocked every my effort to log in or save a favourite forum in my xoom through that app...
Any fix to this?
Thanks!
things are laggy. Actually suck. Before update it ran much better!! When I scroll down a page i get pink boxes really bad!! :-(
Pink boxes? The update actually made your device slower? Maybe you need to preform a factory reset

XDA Premium works just fine, and has for some time.

At the bottom of the forums switch the view to XDA Classic. It isn't laggy at all for me after doing this.
I'm using the TDR 3.1 rooted kernel and the keyboard is fine. I experienced the lag on the BRD 3.1 rooted kernel. The TDR supports over-clocking and I just flipped that on, works great. I also use the SlideIT soft keyboard which is working nicely. I was having problems with long posts on phpbb forums before 3.1 which is no longer a problem, yay. Things are looking up.
hi
After playing with the touchpad and ipad I've really noticed how much you have to move your finger to actually scroll on the 10.1
Is there any setting to make it more sensitive?

hi,
all i can say is that i am using it, on my 10.1 v and 10.1, together with" ADW ex launcher " and it works for me.!!!
eg.
i barely touch my screen and can " swing " the icons around in a circle !
flicking from desktop page to page, is smooth and fast !
i have played with a ipad 2 a few times and its smooth, but i rate my 10.1v and 10.1 right up there !!( facts, according to me)
Finally,the customization, bit from android does/swings , it for me !to the 10.1
Just read the " relevant app " market reviews,and there is quite a few! ( nearly all are very positive reviews and i see the rating is 4.7 out of 5 ? ( if i remember correctly ?)
so all in all,
sorry to hear it does not work for you !
good luck

The Touchscreen Booster app does not work. Nobody cares about scrolling/swiping speeds on the home screens. That is not the issue.
The issue is scrolling in apps especially web browsers. Scrolling in web browsers on the tab 10 is the most frustrating experience you can have. It scrolls so slowly that you have to swipe up or down 100 times to get to the top or bottom of many webpages. Very annoying and frustrating.
Your Touchscreen Booster apps does nothing to resolve this.

hi,
plse read my post ,i gave an example about sensitivy ( in case you don't understand what i meant with ..eg ..abreviation ? Further i use it with ADW ex , ( not as a standalone ? )Further, i said read the reviews about the relevant app ( market ),etc .In general ,this is my experience and what i found.Above all, it is not " my" touchbooster as you state in your post "Your Touchscreen Booster apps does nothing to resolve this."
plse, if you have only negative comments ,don't also try and "attack/insult/etc "like getting personal ( "your ")
Keep to facts or your personal experience and thats it !
Above all " respect "other forum members ,who is only trying to give positive input to the OP question in post 1
lastly,
in my post no 3, i stated " give it a try if you want ?
good luck"
so i left the option open ,to take my advice or not !!
Again, the touchscreen booster does not change anything. It does not improve scrolling at all. It has no effect on scrolling at all. As stated before nobody cares about the home screens so I dont understand why you posted what you did. This thread is asking about scrolling not touch sensitivity. Touch sensitivity does nothing for scrolling.
Even with the app installed it does not change any aspect of the touch screen. It isnt even compatible with the tablet. Its just does not work at all.
hi , i am not interested in arguing with you .!
i stated over and over i use it with ADW ex and i believe it works for me .(you don't and i respect that )
just for your info,in post 7 ..eg..i said flicking @scrolling ?
and yes it is compatible see snip in post
lets move on and try give OP, positive advice
end of story .
thank you
again, that does nothing for scrolling. I dont understand how you think that is a solution when it does nothing for scrolling. Please explain how the app touchscreen booster improves scrolling in apps like the web browser. Please explain because I dont understand.
Thanks for your suggestion
I've installed both apps and scrolling in the browser is exactly the same
The home screen animations are different, but I'm not really bothered about this
Anyone else have any ways to fix this?
Can't believe there isn't more voice about this issue

markdj57, please comment on the above and also where you've noticed the improvements
Its the one let down with this tablet, feels a bit of a chore to use for long periods where as the Ipad is a pleasure to use in this area
is this an andriod or samsung problem?
I think the touchscreen booster app does help with scrolling. Has a more "instantaneous" reaction like my ipad. Also the ipad actually flings the pages slower than the galaxy tab IMHO
I am away from tab but I will be back on friday evening, will do a few more tests then.

You should stop attacking people with your "I know best, just because I say so" posts.
He is trying to help, hell, maybe he is helping te OP, and you are clearly not helping at all, providing 0% contribution to this topic.
Stating your (lousy) opinion like "nobody cares" or "does nothing for scrolling" are merely your opinions with no proof whatsoever. (You have a reliable source, or is this just your experience?)
As far as I see you enjoy putting people down mere on their experience, as actually trying to provide helpfull information!

Does anyone else have this problem with their nexus 7? I just got my nexus 7 today but I noticed that the backlight seems to flicker randomly
It doesn't look like much in the video but it is very noticeable and gets annoying when you're reading an ebook like i was.. Here's a video showing the problem.(It's near the end)
VIDEO LINK: h**p://db.tt/28eD0NLk (It happens around 9 second in) (change ** into tt)
For whatever reason this forum would not post a video link to show the problem.. for those who wants to know what it looks like please PM me..
But basically the screen flickers randomly ..
Is this a software problem? Should I go back and get it exchanged?

I havn't tried it yet..do we know if it's a hardware problem or software?
I just got it today so I can still return it if it turns out to be hardware
We really dunno at this point, but we are speculating software since both HTC One X and TF300 had similar problems and were fixed with firmware updates. Also someone switched it three times and all of them had this issue. Also try to run the screen in a pitch black room and tell me if the screen flicker is there. I may have a theory but need some other people to see if their units are behaving the same way as mine.
You can still post the link when you alter it a bit, insert a few *** into it, for example.
I turned mine on as soon as I got hold of it, no flicker, managed to go through and set up things, powered off and left to charged.
Coming back to it the screen would appear to turn on and off randomly, I thought it could be an app controlling a proximity sensor (I have one on my phone and I was EXTREMELY tired!), when I took it into the light there was no change.
I found that shaking it would help it flicker on and off at all intervals but didn't fix it. In the end I just started pushing random areas on the back, just before the issue went away I pressed around the bottom left quarter of mine and haven't had an issue since!
Glad I wasn't the only one with the problem though and would love to actually find out what it was.
Hope this helps!

Try this video,
h**p://dl.dropbox.com/u/13153603/Videos/VID_20120715_100253.mp4
it is using google map and you can see the constant flickering.. It doesn't look very severe in the video but it is actually very noticeable and annoying
I have the same issue with mine. It only seems noticeable when I have the brightness set to the lowest setting and on a page that is predominately white. I don't think it's the proximity sensor though, because it happens both when I set it manually to the lowest setting and when I'm in the dark and the tablet sets the brightness all the way down itself. Hope the next update fixed this, because it's really annoying!

I first noticed this flicker in a darkened room, so yes, it is definitely something going on. I'll try disabling auto-brightness to see if that matters.

I can attest that the flicker is ever present in a pitch black room as well.
Like this?
There are a few videos on youtube, but i cant post links but if you do a search you can find it
I noticed a flickering in chrome yesterday. But only in chrome and only while the page is rendering after it fully renders no more flickering.
Everyone turn off wifi and I guarantee it will go away. It happens when using wifi which makes it hard to believe that a software update can fix it.
Is anyone else having problems with swiping left and right etc since 4.1.2?
My device recognises the swipe but doesn't complete ie when ctolling through home screens the page won't move to the next page it will stay where it is and you just see the page move a little bit and then go back.
Hope that makes sense.
Please reply if you're having this problem or not
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I've noticed this as well since 4.1.2 but it only happens for the first few seconds after switching the screen on. I've had to apply a bit more force in swiping to bring down the Notifications or to go from screen to screen on Home and the app drawer. Gently flicking the screen doesn't work and stuff like Notifications just flips back up, but after 20-30? seconds it works fine again.
I've noticed this aswell, but don't think the new update is the cause as I was experiencing it before.
Just out of curiosity do you use another device such as HOX? Because I have a HOX, and the swiping is much smoother on that, flicking goes from screen to screen rather than a drag which the Nexus required, if you do use another device perhaps its just the change in device like my case ?
Hmmm.
Cant decide whether or not to take it back and try a replacement.
As said above i have to now use a full swipe across the screen with my finger while holding the tablet in the other hand. I cant just use one hand and flick it with my thumb like i used to be able to.
Ive done a factory reset but that hasnt helped at all.
Ill upload a video of the problem soon so you guys can compare it to yours.
OK heres a video of the problem...
Let me know if you guys have the same

I've noticed that my home screen is not as responsive, though I can't tell in your video if it's as severe. I have to make a strong swipe to move to the next page or it will just bounce back to the current page I'm on. So sometimes it takes me a couple times to switch screens since I'm used to it normally changing. Hope that makes sense.
I run CNA 3.8.0 which uses 4.1.2; I haven't noticed that problem previously on 4.1.1
I also have to swipe the notification bar further in order for it to stick. I used to only have to go 1/3 to less than 1/2 of the screen for it to work.

Same issue, would agree that it is worse for the first 20-30 seconds after waking up the screen. Really is quite a pain.
This definitely happens for me, and it definitely started with the 4.1.2 update. It's not a big deal to me, but I can't believe Google didn't catch it.

I've got a new c9O 32GB and mine does the same thing. Its better if I use one hand to hold it from the edges while using the other hand to touch. Using one hand to hold and swipe/scroll/ anything is an effort in futility. And its not just at the Home screen/App menu for me. It also locks up completely from time to time. Do we know what kind of memory the 32GB model uses? Not happy about this at all. Asus really screwed up on this one.

I have this issue as well. My first nexus which was a 16gb didnt have this problem but my current one which is a 32gb does this, especially with the notification bar which is quite annoying. Not sure if its because of 4.1.2 or if its the hardware itself because it updated immediately when i got it so didnt have a chance to use the 32gb before it updated.
has anybody tried the 4.2 update to see if it has fixed this?

At least I have not seen it yet - swipe across half the screen works again to change page.

Also have you noticed, flicking doesn't change the page any more, you have to properly swipe.
Finally have you noticed you can't flick downwards for the Notifications you have to slide it all the way down?

Atleast its not just me
I haven't noticed this. I was having continual touch screen issues that seemed to get progressively worse as time went on. Days before I received my 4.1.2 update, majority of the time my tablet was unusable it seemed, requiring a reboot to work again. Then I finally got a notification that 4.1.2 was available. Since installing it, I've had *zero* touchscreen issues...
You can check me off next to "I fricken love it", however I have nothing to offer in regard to the other issues that you folks speak of. Maybe they were existent prior and I never noticed, who knows.
Damn, this is true. All. I thought it was TSF shell that I use, but it is not. I almost immediately upgraded to 4.1.2 so I was not that accustomed to 4.1.1, but now that you say, yes. You have to slide all the way, both screens and what bothers me more, notifications. Ugh.
I'm still not sure I'm following this. With both Apex and the stock launcher, I'm not noticing any significant change. If I'm in the app drawer and I want to swipe left or right, I can flick the screen and move my finger all but a half inch and the gesture applies accordingly and I see the screen move. Notifications feel no different as well. Am I missing something?

Having this exact problem to. For me I would hesitate to suggest that this is more prominent when the tablet just been woken up. Really wish it hadn't changed.
I'm having similar problems on my stock, rooted 4.1.2 N7. It's become harder to flick-swipe between screens and the like. I don't have a screen protector on my device either.
Was first raised in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943613 guess more people are noticing it now. Hope it'll be fixed in 4.2
has anybody tried the 4.2 update to see if it has fixed this?
After updating to 4.2.1 i started noticing this issue in both AOSP browser, chrome, app drawer and notification pulldowns... Annoyed my ass off... anyway, after some hard googling, it appears to be a 4.2.X issue? So after flashing CM10 (4.1.2) the problem is gone, but the 4.2 sweetness is as well...
Please star the issue here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39892
Update:
After flashing 4.2.1 again, everything seems to be working just fine... I'm just left clueless
I used to have the same problem. Can anyone here who has this problem right now tell me if they have enabled "Magnification Gestures" under accessibility in the settings menu? If so, disable it and see if the problem is better.
