Is anyone facing a little bit of lag when moving between homescreens on their nexus 7?
Only when coming out of a reboot but that's normal, otherwise I have no lag at all.

Some live wallpapers cause lag, their fault though. If you're lagging a quad core device you're doing something wrong.

Are your home screens cluttered with widgets and shortcuts?

No lagging whatsoever here. Unlocked. Rooted. Stock ROM.

i had lag with the screen rotation control but removed that and tis grand... i have a little while my weather/clock widget loads.. but its ok..
Ya I experience lag. Usually happens when leaving an app and going back to the home screen. Can be pretty bad lag at times

I've got several widgets on my homescreens and no lag.
With the stock launcher it seems that there is a micro stutter but that is only with stock launcher. Does rooting help lag on the homescreen? Because I haven't rooted yet.

Rooting itself will have no effect on it. Maybe a custom ROM or kernel though.
Well custom ROMS have done wonders to me.

There is a bit of stutter scrolling through the homescreens, its not totally fluid. I noticed the same with the Tegra One X as well (but thats ICS so expected).
My Galaxy Nexus on the otherhand, is perfectly slick and smooth. It's strange, it doesn't happen all of the time neither.
In the app tray too I feel like there is a slight slutter or delay if the finger stroke isn't long enough (even though it still changes screen).

So it might be tegra 3 thing after all? So only customs ROM could help this or another launcher.

Nova launcher with the "slide" transition is noticeably smoother than the stock launcher in my experience..

No I dont think so. I've noticed it back in january when I bought the phone. I even had it with my old Galaxy S with every 4.2 rom and my friend has the same issue with his Nexus 4. The keyboard is responsive but very slow. I can live without the gesture but its very annoying because I love that feature.

Am I the only one experiencing MASSIVE lag on this phone? The lag comes and goes intermittently, its really random. Not consistent, but I experience it often doing typical tasks, such as changing my browser window, opening text messages, changing between apps, the notification bar will stutter when pulled down randomly, etc. This is my second S4, and both seem to lag really bad.
What do you guys think?
Turn off all bloat ware or factory reset the phone.

Its off, at first I thought maybe that was the problem, but I'm positive its off.
It's a problem. Everyone has noticed it with the AT&T version. AT&T and Samsung really need to get together and get on this pretty quick to address this issue. Stutter and lag should not be part of a phone that scores so well on every benchmark.

So its limited to just the At&t branded version? If thats the case I might just return this and pick up the T-mobile version.
Install Nova launcher and override the transition animations with either slide or ICS. That takes care of the stutters when opening and closing apps.

I have uninstalled all bloat, changed launcher to Nova, and reduced animation times... And my phone still lags with typing and in the browser and overall UI. This is disgusting to see... My Nexus 4 is so much smoother...

I have lag & studdering as well. I've had an S3 & a Note 2 & nether one of them has it as bad as my S4. Just thinking it may be because it's there 1st phone 2 run on the newest 4.2.2 OS & just need 2 work out a few bugs. Hopefully it will be fixed soon, fingers crossed becuase besides from that this thing is a Beast! Loving it

Im convinced the lag is a sure thing on ALL devices. Those of you who dont THINK you have no lag, I assume is because you have never used a lag free device like the HTC One or Nexus 4. Personally at this point I'd go as far to say my old S3 was "smoother" than this S4.....
Mine is so laggy that I don't even want to use it. I would say that its because it has so much going on.

Even with everything disabled and bloat ware deleted, there is still considerable stuttering and lag going on.

The lag is not huge, but it is noticeable, especially on first scroll through. noticeably laggier than n4. Any one experience this? I'll try to do a video later.
tmobile version, stock everything, I've uninstalled some of the tmobile apps. Tapatalk set to 50posts.
Since I've had this phone I've experienced no lag either on stock ROM or Trickdroid.

Since day one I got my device. It was shipped with 1.27 firmware and updated to 1.29 eleven days ago.
I'm afraid it's the Tapatalk app that does this . I have a Note 2 and a One. The Note with Tapatalk lags, the One with the XDA version works fine...

I'm wondering if this is a 4.2 vs 4.3 thing.
I also think the one may be throttling harder, which would explain better battery life.
Could be resolution difference. It's harder to push more resolution though.
The only reason I'm worried is the reports off how smooth the phone is. I dont want a lemon phone

It's neither of those things. It's just the app not playing nice with the SoC, just wait for an update and it should be a-ok
So I checked with another one, it's also a bit laggy when using tapatalk and 8tracks.
Both are fa35xx phones.

I played with the s4 in hte store. it was very laggy but it's supposed to get better by turning off all the gimmicky stuff. however, the one still noticeably lags for me.
in terms of least laggy (default mode, all stock)

You could try enabling force gpu rendering in developer options. That helped me with a few different apps, quite immensely.

I'm running a rooted, cleaned up, stock mf3 ROM and its just terrible in terms of lag. Scrolling anywhere is jerky and awful looking, pulling down the notification shade is like 10 fps sometimes. Is this really the best it can do on touchwiz? My other devices are HTC One GPe, N4, Note 2, etc...

My notif bar is always quick when I pull it down, even when I wake the phone from sleep then pull it down ...I think you just have to tweak kernel and rom settings a bit. Or clear cache...dalvik and app data. Quicker then the htc one from att I had..
Thats just your device man. Mine is smooth as butter, and always has been. I would double check to make sure power saving is disabled, and if it is, then your best bet is to factory reset and see if that makes an improvement.

I had practically no lag out of the box. . . so maybe your phone has a hardware issue.
(since rooting and flashing Shostock2.1, and setting animations to 0 my phone is quick!)
The condition you describe is not normal for our model.
Good Luck
i Had same problems or close to same.
i had phone freezing and also flipping home screen used to freeze I went back stock and re root and flashed custom rom close to stock and i seen no lag
Maybe try some of custom roms ?

I've run about 3 different Roms and I use the gs4 and One daily. The one is quicker. I know from reviews and Google searches I'm not alone in experiencing the lag. Maybe some people are more perseptive to it?
The Google edition ROM was quicker. I already have the Google play edition one though, so I was trying to use touch wiz. I'll see if I can video the lag.

I have only been using s5 in ART mode and its butter smooth everywhere. But sometimes the phone doesn't come out of sleep (the screen remains dark/off) only the capacitive buttons light up and i have to toggle the power button several times for it to work (no power off required). another issue i face is that the camera takes a solid 5 seconds or more to start up from lock screen. May be i should switch back to DALVIK.
Tw launcher lag a bit. To overcome this u should enabled developer option and set each animation by 0.5x. I'm using nova launcher and it's fly

Let's be serious once and for all.
TouchWiz will ALWAYS be slower than stock Android, so please stop asking if the S5, S6, S7 lag.
Don't expect TouchWiz to be as fast! Ever! That simple.

How is the lag compared to the m8?
I've noticed lag on the s5 while sifting through the camera settings during the camera mode. I think the scrolling on the s5 seems to be a little smoother compared to the m8 based on my testing both phones at a store, but I could be wrong. I also think the iPhone is still somewhat smoother than both phones. I'm hoping for find an android that beats out the iPhone in terms of lag and smooth scrolling.

I do use Nova but generally the phone feels like it's finally shaken off some of the slow S4 shackles.
My experience so far is that it is a big improvement over the S4. Bone stock so far.

If you look on YouTube, there's a video comparison of the lag. The S5 loses every time, but it's microseconds, nothing major.
