Anyone else having sluggish issues in chrome? Was reading wired and it just froze a few seconds before letting me scroll the page.

Yeah it is sluggish sometimes, the other day I was reading http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...e-olympics-will-be-worth-watching-this-summer in Chrome, and it's very bad, scroll delay or doesn't scroll at all. It's a bit more bearable in Dolphin Browser.
Yep, same here.
I am also having an issue with deleting characters in the search bar in Chrome. When I press the backspace button, it adds random characters every time I try to delete. It happens at random times and is kind of annoying.

Not a fan of this Chrome implementation. Went back to the AOSP browser

Anyone have this issue? I literally cant even type this post without having to go back and correct everything...Cursor jumps back mid sentence a lot and inputs words accidently etc...does overclocking fix this issue? Can I overclock if already on 3.1?
Thanks!
i have a terrible time typing on webforms.
do you have the dock ? if so turn off the trackpad using the 4th button from the top left
this works a treat making the cursor stay where it damn should, you have to go back to jabbing the screen but it means pain free inputing when you need to.

Same issue here
i have the same typing lag problem with the stock browser then i switched to dolphin hd browser and the problem solved.
trackpad thing didnt work... still jumped. I am using dolphi hd also and its having lag as well... annoying to say the least.
For this forum change the theme to classic. It fixes the lag completely.

Not for me. Nothing has helped. It's not just here, it typing an any webform anywhere on the web. It might be slightly better in some places but it never goes away. I went to the mall and tested 3 other brand tablets yesterday and none had this problem.
Touch the screen, wait for mouse to dissapear to start typing.
I use SwiftKey keyboard and I can barely see any lag, and the predictions are the best.

I am having the exact same issue. I have tried the stock browser and Firefox. I'm running android 4.0 ICS (it came with that upgrade). I mainly use it without the dock attached, so that can't be an issue.
Overall it is very laggy for typing and starting to type into text fields. I have to click then wait several seconds before typing and randomly while typing, it will get "backed up" and characters will stop appearing for a moment.
Generally I can type okay without the cursor jumping around...that is, unless I make a mistake and want to go back and fix it. Then trying to point the cursor at the right letter is nearly impossible because it jumps all over while dragging (and just doing one single tap makes the cursor go in unpredictable spots). Even if I get it to the right spot I can only type one letter then the next letters will start type at the bottom / end of the text field.
I realize this thread is old, did anybody get to the bottom of this?
Ive noticed recently sometimes when using the softkey home, back or menu I sometimes need to press them 2 or more times.
For instance dolphin browser sometimes if you had scrolled down thn back button would just return where you were, so you would need 2 or more backs to actually go back a page.
With this softkey issues combined with dolphins inherent behavior i habe neess to press back 8 or more times to actually go back. I had to set up aswope left gssture in dolphin to force a previous page.
The touch screen can be either unresponsive, or too responsive in certain situations. It's a little frustrating sometimes, especially when I'm trying to show people how cool the device is, only to press something accidentally, or have to press something multiple times.
So, you're not alone in your pain! I think there are a few posts on here that mention the same thing.
Ya I've noticed this as well especially when in a game app when trying to exit, I have to hit it several times, I think it is more of a software issue, hopefully Amazon will fix it in a future update, I've already sent some feedback to them about the issue. Perhaps if enough people send in some negative feedback, Amazon will respond.

I've noticed this as well; it's very picky on how it wants to be pushed. You have to know how to push it's button to get it to do anything, much like a woman.
Yep, same problem here.
Same thing here. I'm glad I'm not the only one. My worst seems to be the back button, followed by the menu button. My home button almost always works.
Hopefully custom ROMs will fix this.

I've noticed that it mostly does this with amazon's own bits. Update would fix it.

Ok so its not just me. I know my aim is good because at angle I see it highlighted then normal after I release. But yes back the most then menu. Home I think has worked first touch.
Side note ive also had issues sometimes when tapping an area to type in that after 3 or 4 letters the keyboard auto hides. Typing urls and google searches
Oh wow, google wasn't known word for default keyboard.
I'm noticing that at times when I'm texting with the stock swype keyboard, it will input like 10 letters for every 1 that I type in.
It seems to happen when it's near any other device like a computer.
Weird.
Anyone have this? Any fix?
I notice that when I kill the messaging app and restart it, it's fine. But such a hassle.
I'm having issues every so often, where if swiping the keyboard registers about 5 different letters randomly in the path I swipe. There is definitely something up with it. I have hard reset once. It's very random, but not just typing, sometimes when surfing reddit or Google news, swiping up or down, it starts to freak out and click on links as I scroll, aggravating as...

Anyone know whats wrong when chrome almost always opens new page as blank, it starts to load, then it just show blank page?
If you click on screen the page is in background and if you click in right place it opens links etc.
Only way to display page correctly is to press home button and open chrome again, then page shows up correctly.
Really annoying bug and happens many times a day! (tried both, normal and beta chrome)
[EDIT] this bug is not rom/phone related, my wifes nexus 5 with different rom has this too...

Yeah, same thing happening here. Also you can swipe left/right on the address bar, to change tab, and go back to "blank" one, now it will show correctly.
This start happening i think before 2 updates.
Though I haven't found anything about that bug. I tried cleaning both, data and cache, with no help.
Been getting it a lot lately, not sure if it was a chrome update or the fact I've been dirty flashing custom roms lately.
I was so mad with this bug, that i tried clean flash, and first page i tried to open was empty... :|
Fun fact, happens alot on the desktop version, atleast for me but I think it has to do with flash.
It's down to chrome itself, not the rom.
If I remember correctly, I had it even while using 4.4.2, now I'm on 4.4.3
As I mentioned, bug was here from last 2 or 3 chrome update.
Also, I don't have this problem in chrome on my pc.
I've been having very bad lag using Google's Gboard keyboard. It only happens when pressing the "shift" arrow and pressing a key. I also notice this happens most frequently in password fields.
It's very bad and makes the app nearly unusable. Does anyone else have the issue or offer a fix?
I'm having the exact same issue.
Use SwiftKey it's better

SwiftKey is fine if you like to tap each key to type. Nothing is more accurate than Gboard for swiping.
The Flow feature of SwiftKey is horrible in comparison.

I have no issues with Gboard; however, I am in the beta tester program. Did you try the beta version?
I have same issue.
