What bugs?
Screen flickering ,random lags when accessing settings or apps.

I've seen none of those problems at all. No screen flickering, no lag, nothing.

U must be the lucky one, I been searching and seems many have this problems. Do u use the Google services like all the sync features??? What about drive?

Chrome seems laggier than it should be, hope there is some issue there than can be fixed to improve performance.
Every Nexus 7 I've had so far (that'd be 4) have all had washed out looking greens and yellows and over saturated whites. Hoping that is something a patch can fix.
Tegra 3's Prism smart dimmer feature causes the screen to look over exposed while and after videos play (fades away after a few seconds). I've disabled the smart dimmer, so it's okay for me, but seems like an issue that needs a patch.
I have seen nothing in JB 4.1.1 that would require an update at this point.
Might as well expect an update for dark pixels.

Screen flickering is a known hardware issue
Mine lags bad from time to time. I wonder if it has to do with google now because my galaxy nexus lags just as bad if not worse when i tap the google now search bar. I was trying to find and app (shazam) and thought it would be faster to look for it through now, but it lagged and lagged and lagged. By the time I got the app open, the song was over and I couldn't tag it.
My Gnexus is great, fast ,no complains at all,Google now is quick I got no lag, but on the nexus 7 it becomes a problem to the point that I have to switch it off and use the browser.

I use dropbox which is pretty much the same in terms of resources. I have play movies, music, currents, books. I have pandora on there, google now, generally everything you could need. I've done this on both stock 4.1.1 and on Paranoid Android (every iteration). Literally NO lag. Even being slightly underclocked.

Nope, it's from a poorly soldered wifi chip, that is drawing power away from the screen when wifi is low.
I had this issue, and called Google personally for support, and the person confirmed that the screen flickering was hardware, not software.

Never had any of that so I doubt its a "software issue". If it is its likely something you installed.
quick update about the lag on the nexus7:
i used Nexus Root Toolkit v1.5.2 to root and install recovery about 4 times ,and in all this times i had problems with lag ,so two days ago i decided to restart again and root the n7 with Galaxy Nexus ToolKit v2.0 but without installing the custom recovery.
now it very quick and as no lag at all,and yes i loaded the identical apps all the previous time.
ideas???

I think most of the lag is because of a bad app or a setting somewhere. Glad to hear you got it sorted out. I'm just looking forward to the update that fixes the bootloader issues with accessing recovery without the usb cable or using terminal commands/adb/apps.

i get lag maybe once in a blue moon. I have 7 mb internet which is pretty solid
What I've noticed on my N7 -- and what I think might actually be the issue, here -- is that the WiFi is somewhat fiddly. On my VZW-provided Actiontec junker, it's just fine. On my Asus (irony!) N-16 running TomatoWRT, on the other hand, it's less than happy; data connections hang, which shows up in the Play store as difficulty pulling up assets (images, pages, etc) -- which looks kind of like really nasty laggyness.
I haven't had the opportunity or the urge to diagnose yet, but the first thing I'm going to do is try changing the channel on the router, followed shortly by probably changing every other setting. Then I'll curse for a while because I'll have borked the router config without having made a backup. Because that's how these things work.
This device is blazing fast most of the time, but it will inexplicably lock up, completely, for a few minutes at a time for seemingly no reason. Right now it's frozen on a youtube video and I can't turn it off or use the screen. The device is also unusable really when installing apps, and will lag heavily in Google Now sometimes.
Is this just me? Or 4.2.1?
Just you. My N7 is still operating at warp speed and doesn't lock up..

Are you stock? If so I heard people saying turning off the sync for currents will help, for Google now lag I feel its performs better if you turn off the hot word in setting. But with that you can't say Google and start voice search
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I'm stock 4.2.1 and don't have those issues. I do have currents (and various other apps) disabled, so like previous response said try that. Otherwise maybe go with a factory reset.
When my gnex updated to 4.2 it's performance suffered until I factory reset, now it's been much better.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
My best guess would be you have installed an app that is not compatible with 4.2.
How about posting a list of what you have installed, if you use multi-user, and if you are stock (not rooted), and we can give comments.
I agree. I'm running PA and rock solid. I was also rock solid on stock.
I've never had it lock up. I flashed a Trinity kernel once that caused sleep of death... but it was a known issue.

I have a pretty decent amount of apps installed. I'll post them in a minute, but no, I'm not multi-user, and I'm stock. I'll root and put a new rom on this thing if it's worth it, I figured it'd be fine the way it came.

thanks, I'll try disabling those.
Over 100 apps in total, my andronbench write speed is clearly an error so just compare read and app open macros.
My apps open much faster than yours, which I'd put down to PA ROM and kernel. Maybe your write speed is a bit slow?
Can you download "forever gone" from market and try a full fill and delete? Apparently helps reset the memory controller to improve performance.

Exactly the same here. Typing's hard work, and tapping icons or buttons can take a couple of tries before it registers. All updated and tried a reboot.
You should upgade to 4.2.2, make full wipe and start from scratch. Then you will see if lag is still there.

Mine is choppy (low frame rate) occasionally - it was more noticeable during the recent halloween event. Seems ok now since the thanksgiving update.
It does crash quite frequently though - maybe one out of every three or four sessions.
I play daily and it crashes at least once every time I play it. Used to have sgs4 I337 running gpe Roms and it wouldn't work at all. Warrantied a bad headset speaker and here I am. The new sgs4 AT&T sent me had a locked boot loader and no root android 4.3. I didn't want a galaxy phone so sold it for 400 bought the nexus 5.
Level 37 now. Same as zulugod stated was laggy with Halloween update, better now.

In 37, it does have fps lag and crashes like six times before I can assign everyone to tasks

Open thread to discuss this new update.
Did anyone noticed any Youtube improvements? (stuttering / 1080p playback)
The static noise that was present at low volume disappeared for me, so as a result, clearer audio.
The transparent bars in landscape and portrait mode for the lock screen (I think this was not present in 4.4)

that's discouraging.
Has anyone else noticed the date doesn't show up on the bootup initial lock screen, but reappears once you unlock and relock, also with the translucent bars they've corrected the spacing in the displayed date, in 4.4 it didn't have spaces.
Performance in Asphalt 8 seems to dropped also, maybe a placibo effect but it feels like the fps has gone down 10 frames

updated already and now will observe if the random reboots are still occurring.
didn't see any immediately visible change. for instance on the homescreen, the transparent status above and home keys below weren't translucent like that of Nexus 5. on the lockscreen though, the status bar became translucent.
To those people with random reboot:
-Did you check your apps first? Try booting in safe mode and use your tablet for a day; if there is no reboot then that means some of your apps did that.
-Did your disabled any of Google app sync? Try enabling the sync again.
Personally I have never experience random reboot on this tablet. On my N7 2012 there were countless times the reboot occurs but that was definitely due to lack of ram.

My tablet can reboot twice a day and then no more reboot for 1 week... So it's very hard to make any test.
About 2 reboots on 3 is when the tablet is not in use and the screen is closed.
If I was almost alone with this issue... I could test some installed apps, however since many people is having the same issue, I don't think it is related to any "installed" app.
