Has anyone else had lagging like turning up the volume the volume bar would lag?

Everything seems to be working ok havent really noticed anything really.
I haven't noticed anything either, although, admittedly, its early in the game.

If this is the 2nd update, then yes I am noticing some lag. Especially when doing things like you mention which totally frustrates me 'cause it was these types of activities that got so much better with the 3.1 upgrade... at least for me. Smoother swipes between home screen, moving widgets and a few others... sigh
Oh well, just hoping 3.2 will fix these. Asus is getting it this week, please Acer keep up with the Jones on this stuff!
Mine got it a few days ago. During the 2nd reboot, it was stuck with the screen backlight on, but nothing showing up. I had to force it off, then back on. I did get the "update was successful" message after unlocking it. Since then, it seems to be a little slower, especially with screen draws. It still plays videos fine, but the more apps I have open, the slower it changes screens, for example.
I noticed mine was laggy after the update... I thought maybe I installed something that was eating up the CPU, but I think it was probably the update that did it.
It's not horrible, just annoying.
Me too I have been some FC with launcher in addition to the laggyness.

I've had some lagginess, but only after I installed several apps. Skype was one that kept running, so I uninstalled it. Not sure what happened, but I only noticed lag after a few days of running and installing several apps, so I'm having trouble pinning it down.
I just went and backed up my apps with TB and factory reset and restored my apps back and no more lag

Anyone else having the issue of Chrome going completely black screen? YOu have to hit home and swipe the app away, then it will force close and you can re-open it. I've tried everything, wiping all data and caches, installing new ROMs, and it continues to have the same problem. When I open logcat, it shows me a bunch of errors along the lines of "OpenGLRenderer is out of memory!".
The same problem occurs on AndChat, only worse. On AndChat, I have to reboot the tablet to get it to open again. Force closing it doesn't fix it.
I also get problems running games for extended periods of time. Vendetta Online will just start crashing untili I reboot my tablet.
I've seen a few people with the Chrome problem, but is this issue really so small that no one else is having problems with it? If you have this problem, PLEASE post in this thread so I know I'm not alone and my TF isn't just ****ed up. I'm suspecting it is a memleak in the GPU driver, but it should effect more people than just a few of us...

I have exactly the same problem. I thought it was a bug that will get fixed later since it is still a beta.

I'm doubtful that it's a bug with Chrome. It only seems to affect Tegra ICS devices. The exact same issue ("OpenGLRenderer is out of memory!") occurs with other applications. I really think it is a problem with the Tegra ICS GPU driver. It also affects both Tegra 2 and Tegra 3 chipsets.
What revision is your TF? (the first three numbers/letters of your serial number)

I have the same issues with AndChat, my YouTube app also displays artifacting while opening menus since the ICS update.
This problem is fixed using the latest guevor's kernel (I'm running v19.2, along with Megatron). My tablet has been on for over 100 hours now with AndChat running the entire time.

I didn't notice a thread about this here yet. The only information we have is that is widespread, goes away on reboot, seems to change when the screen is changed, and the lines do not seem to show up in screenshots.
For those that have been fortunate to not see this yet on a number of tf300's (including at least one review unit) regularly spaced lines appear along the left side and there does not seem to be a consistent cause either in hardware or software.

I've had it, but primarily when docked. Un-dock and it immediately disappears for me....so far.

I had it for about 5 minutes un docked but restarted and it went way. Haven't had it since and it was only on the 17 firmware

Mine goes away on reboot as well. I've had it on .26 firmware. I've never had mine in a dock. It's not very often but I've seen it 3 or 4 times since I got it last week.

like this? i had this aswell.
Yep that doesn't get the full effect but I did notice the twitching along the entire bottom bar.

I'm on the .26 firmware, and I just got the flickering. It's strange. Is this a cause for concern? Would it be an overreaction to return the tablet? Would it matter if this affects all units?
I also had this on both .17 and .26 after update. No dock used.

I have this same issue on my TF300. Thinking it was hardware failure, I returned mine (to Best Buy), and the replacement is also doing the same thing.
Both have also done a few related glitches. Namely, the mouse cursor while docked has become a corrupt square, and the soft keys/notification area will move up and down a couple pixels randomly, which is very disturbing.
As others have noted, this goes away with a reboot. I used the Titanium Backup widget to make a shortcut to do that faster.
I'm starting to wonder if this isn't some kind of app incompatibility. So far, I've noticed that the app "2X Client" (which I use for Remote Desktop) makes it much worse much faster. And, some things don't seem to trigger it at all. My TF300 was playing Pandora with the screen off for 7 hours today and it was fine.
I have had that issue aswell i have been thru 4 my new one seems to be perfect they were from best buy..

Same problem here.
I only started seeing it while on .26.
Mine is rooted and I`m using the 300 mostly docked, so it starts when docked but undocking doesn't make it go away.
A reboot does solve the problem.
Yesterday I installed task killer, in order to be able to kill an app that could have started it.
To me it looks like something that could be memory related.

i think its probably software related. hopefully they will have a fix with the next upgrade firmwire. it only happens once in a great while. i thought i had a defective unit but i guess its not just me.
I started getting the same issues with the up/down twitching and the line of bars on the left side of the screen. I didn't find this forum until today but already returned to Amazon for an exchange. New one should be here tomorrow. So was either of these really an issue seen with the Prime before and fixed by firmware update. BTW, never used the keyboard dock with mine.

you can always return it to asus 6 months later and get a new tablet if it is really messed up but i guess then you can't really root or put custom rom on it.
Of course. It would be nice to root it though. I was running the Nova Pro Launcher and ICS itself seemed fine enough.
I forgot to ask if anyone knows if ASUS is aware of the twitching and flickering issues and is working on a fix for it.
Just to add.. I saw this once on mine ... am on .26
got black lines on the sides and bar at bottom was moving .... widgets on home screen were doing the same thing
undocked and it stopped

I should probably mention that I don't even own a dock.
Had this too on my brand new 300 with 17. Rebooted, havent seen it since. (knock on wood)
did any of you utilize a "screenshare" or a "streaming" tool to your desktop?
i did utilize Asus's built in splashtop streaming software with my desktop prior to this happening. also utilized team viewer
i usually get this when i watch movies in my tf300, dont remember if its charging or not
Soo ever since friday my tab has been going wild..
Itll just randomly become unresponsive and then reboot.
It started once i hooked it up to charge on a ferry... which makes me worry. however, i do have chrome on it. I figured after it came out of beta itd be fine, and its run fairly well up until recently.
Im stock rooted, running latest ota. Locked boot loader... though I tried to unlock before, but since im a c4okct there was a time where my sn wasnt recorded, and that's when I attempted to unlock.
Now, im worried that my tab is possibly fried, and im stuck without warrenty.
Does anyone have any ideas either way?
Thank you in advance and sorry for the rambling, i just tried to cover all the bases.
Ps - isnt ics supposed to be built off 3.0 kernel? I just noticed that this tab apparently is built on 2.6

Over the past several weeks my Pad would randomly decide the touch screen will no work forcing a paper clip restart. Tonight it has decided it will not recognize either battery is charged and will not see the once in the dock. Do I have a Lemon?

looks like we both have lemons
kinda suck that a tablet so good has to perform so badly
hope best buy will still take in after it 30 day policy

When I reset my tab it at first works well. Then as it goes on it just goes to hell. Its main problem is graphicly demanding things, like gmail animations make it crash, and so does Google Music. Google Play store also is pretty laggish (I notice a trend with google products). I want to unlock it and install CM to see if it fixes anything, but I'm worried about losing warranty. Any thoughts?

Tried reset but still have the issue. The power off icon randomly pops up and then it reboots. 3 times today so far. Followed the guide in this thread and hope it's fixed with updated firmware. Regret buying now, dull screen with horrible bleed, poor io performance, and reboots make it super unreliable.

My games play just fine for ~10 minutes, and then start freezing. They start working again after a a small amount of time, but continue freezing. It makes me think it might have something to do with overheating, but the phone itself is barely warm. Does anyone else have this issue?
It's not that big of a deal, because I don't play games frequently, I'm just thinking that when I travel, I don't want to be having this issue with only being able to play games intermittently.
I first noticed it on SlimRom, thought it might have had something to do with the smaller pixel density that rom has, so I changed the lcd density to default, and the issue continued. I installed AOKP last night, and the issue is happening with that one as well.
I didn't have the stock rom on long enough to test it, but it would be nice to know that this is a phone issue and not a rom issue.
Right now I'm trying out the rest of the roms to see if any work for games for more than 10-15 minutes, but I would really appreciate some input from anyone.
EDIT
Issue occurs with Carbon and PAC roms as well.

not sure, but it could be a memory (RAM) issue. does the freezing happen with other apps, or just certain games?
I have not seen it happen in anything except games, but it only happens when I have the game open for 10+ minutes. I don't think I have ever had a single app open that long, but it doesn't seem to be a RAM issue to me. Once the freezing starts happening, it freezes a couple times a minute, and other apps work just fine, even with the game still running in the background. If I set it down, it won't freeze again for another few minutes, which is why it seems like GPU overheating to me. Once it gets hot, it freezes really frequently, then when given the chance to cool down it doesn't freeze again unless its been running a game for longer.
I just got it to freeze, hit the task killer button(said 380MB free) and went back into the game, and it froze again within 30 seconds.
I downloaded a CPU temp app, and the CPU is ~35C, and doesn't get much higher when the game starts freezing. Are there any apps that show GPU temp? I can't seem to find anything.

get a logcat and send it to the Dev of whatever ROM you're on.
I did, I ended up sending it to the SlimRoms crew, because Slim has been my go-to rom.
In other news, I used the Utility on the Dev page to flash back to stock 4.1.2, and have been playing a game for around 20 minutes with no issues, it seems like stock works fine. Good to know I dont have a malfunctioning device.
I'm gunna try some of the 4.1.2 roms and if they don't have the issue, I may just stick with one of those.
Thanks for your help.
I had the same problem! I'm running Carbon and I had the same problems with games. I recently flashed the latest version of carbon and it seems to not have the issue any more though

Interesting.. That would definitely be worth a try.
Right now I'm back to a 4.1.2 rom and games are running flawlessly. I miss all the nice features of 4.2 though, and having Pie and Halo would be amazing.
Thanks for the tip, which Carbon build are you on? I'm looking at the list and I see one built on 7/10 so I'll give that a go.
