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

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.

That's what I thought he meant, but I think he means 4.1.2 to fix any bugs (that I haven't noticed) in 4.1.1

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.

Nexus 4 Date Issue

Hi,
First time post, I've had a search through the forums but haven't been able to find anything related, hopefully someone knows how to help though.
I turned on my Nexus 4 the other day and the date setting has somehow changed. As you can see in the screenshots, the last 2 numbers are the date and the first number seemingly just goes up by 1 each day. I've tried to change the date settings several times but nothing has changed. Is anyone else having the same problem?
My Lightflow app also stopped working at the same time, it won't open despite uninstalling and reinstalling. I would imagine these are unrelated but you never know.
Thanks in advance for any responses!

More information would be helpful. Are you rooted, have custom ROMs, custom kernel?

Ah, sorry. Nope, not rooted or anything like that. Just on standard Android 4.2.2

Looks like a software bug. Try flashing the stock images again and it should fix this problem. Try using carbon to do a backup first if you want to keep data.

I have the exact same issue - Stock JB 4.2.2 but am rooted. Happened suddenly last week - can't figure out how to revert this.
Any luck so far?

Slow Nexus 7..

For some reason my Nexus 7 is strangely slow lately idk why, but I want to know if anyone else has seen there Nexus 7 lagging? And if anyone knows how to speed it up? Posting screen shot of my system info.

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.

Try lagfix(fstrim) anyway it free and took only a few seconds to finish it's job. Even you're already have more than 5 GB free but in the old kernel seem to have a problem with nand flash controller.

Just disable auto-brightness (not joking, it works).

New with nexus 10 but.... Apps keep crashing ...

I had a nexus 7 and Asus transformer tf300 and a sold them to buy the nexus 10, nice tablet but this is getting annoying with apps crashing all the time and I did not have that problem with the other ones. I bought this one las Sunday and came with 4.2.2 so my question is a software or hardware problem? I have been looking around and applying different solutions but nothing.
Thank you.

root and after, try a new kernel

you can make restarts ocure more rarely using one of this variants but they still remains .
try a custom rom also . mr robinsons for example
if the problem persist ... get it back and forget nexus 10

Dang, was hoping for new batch before I RMA
Thanks for quick reply

Same problem here.
I've had the same problem too. All was working fine for around a month, but now I'm finding that apps will crash for no reason. It doesn't have to be when they're being "touched", they'll sometimes just self-destruct with no prompting from myself. A reboot seems to fix it for a while, but the problem seems to come back. Anyone found a solution to this? I'm not keen to install a custom rom as that shouldn't be necessary!

nexus 10 crashing
The same for me, everyday i have to restart it, apps keep crashing all day. I think its the ekynos, my galaxy nexus doesnt behave in that way and i have more apps installed.

I think the problem is related to memory leak. When the apps starts to crash the free memory is running really low, sometimes even below 50mb and all background services are restarting and being killed by system over and over again. A system reboot can fix this until the free memory running low again. Aokp and some other custom roms alleviated this problem, but no one fix it. Maybe Android 4.3 or 5.0 might fix this.

Simpsons Tapped Out

I'm running stock rooted and since day one with this phone, the Simpsons game has been choppy and crashes often. I've sent quiet a bit of reports once it crashes, but I was wondering if anyone else had this problem?

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

Ok glad it's not just me. I'm hoping in the next play store update, They'll fix it or something.

Every time it crashes I send the report. So I'm sure someone will eventually take a look and issue a small patch.
