I know about changing the scroll speed or animations on Nexus 7 but i'm looking for other solutions
I have a 32gb Nexus 7 that just started showing a lot of lags currently which didn't appear before (regardless of how many apps did i used with closing them). Lags start to show on Home menus, Dolphin browser is starting to lag as well (this didnt happen before).
Its quite annoying since it was smooth the last time i used it and now i feel like i'm using a gingerbread/ICS device which is quite frustating
i still have 9+ GB remaining free space out of the 27.35+GB. i think the space should be much of an issue since 9gb is still a lot.
You might try a cache cleaner app like 'Clean Master' or 'App Cache Cleaner.' Also, a shutdown, restart is good to do on occasion.
I just had this happen to me also.
I went to settings and storage, the cache took almost 6Gb of data so i taped that and cleaned it... Now it feels new again

I just wiped 800+mb of cache files, i also removed some movies from its memory just to make sure...
Is it possible that it might have viruses on it?
I have avast currently installed as a precaution and i didnt detect any viruses but i am starting to get oc/ paranoid about this.
i might use restore factory settings on it, as a last resort.
EDIT: i'm still waiting a few months for the warranty to wear off so i can root this thing..
try the DEV options: Force GPU rending..

I'll try that but that consumes more battery than usual. Thanks
Try Lagfix(FStrim) Free or Forever Gone booth work like a charm on my N7.

As soon as i purchased my HD2 i did various things to improve performance and reduce phone memory usage.
One of those was to move the opera cache onto the sd card, i've been using it like that for a few months.
But i have noticed that if i quit opera the phone will be very sluggish for a few mins after i've quit the app. Looking at the processes i can see opera running 100% cpu. I'd guess it's opera cleaning up the cache on the sd card.
After i disabled the HTC Album Cache the other day i realised i have a plenty of free phone memory so decided to swap the cache back to the default location. Not only did this solve the 100% cpu after quit problem it also speeded up browsing and rendering of pages.
If anyone else has moved the cache to the external card and the card is a slow one you might want to consider moving it back to the phone memory.
One other thing i fixed was sluggish text input on some forums/websites, i found this was due to lots of animated slimies/emoticons. There is an option in the opera:config to disable animation which stops animated gif's from playing and solved my sluggish text input problem. It also had the added benefit of stopping adverts that use animated gifs.
I'm using stock rom 1.66WWE, your milage may vary.
you may want to consider running your opera cache from a RAM disk.
This has the advantage of not eating into your storage memory and also being even faster than using the rom memory for cache

see this post for details of installing ramdisk and some ideas of what can be done with it
nice idea, thanks for the tip... i'll probably leave minw as it is now, can see a ramdisk would work even better though
Like a lot of people, I would imagine, I have a constant battle to try and fit all of the apps that I want on my phone memory. There are a whole heap of apps already that I would like that I have had to delete already.
My phone memory was down to 2MB and I really want to add Skype to it now that has been launched. Knowing that I would never fit it on unless I deleted something, I decided to remove my greediest app, Documents to Go, which is also around 8.5MB - the same as Skype.
I deleted it, checked how much memory I had left, expecting there to now be 10.5MB, but found that it is still telling me that I only have 2MB left.
I have tried everything to try and find where the missing memory has gone - the app has definitely been removed from my phone.
Any ideas why I still don't have more than 2MB of memory after this?
Wipe cache.
Try to delete cache of all applications and then reboot the phone
I have gone through the caches of all of the apps that I can access and cleared them. This brings it up to 4MB, but it is still far short of the 8.5MB that I thought that I would have gained by deleting Documents to Go (which I never got around to using anyway).
I guess I really should wipe the thing and start again after downloading and deleting so many apps, but it will be a major pain to set everything up the way I like it.
Roll on Froyo when I can download apps onto the SD card, which should solve the problem once and for all.

Is your phone rooted? If yes, go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik-cache.

No, it's not rooted. I looked at the process of rooting and it looks terrifying and complicated!
If it was rooted, then I know I could just install apps onto the SD card and then the problem would be solved immediately.
If Froyo doesn't get released for Legend soon though, I think I will have to try and root it though as this memory problem is really starting to drive me insane.
I got this error message appears in the right lower corner of the screen: Low on space.
I check the storage of xoom, 29GB was used by apps. Then I check the storage used by each apps, none of them used more then 25MB storage, the total should be less than 250Mb.
could anyone help me about this issue? Thanks.
Do you have any media on the device?

There is no media in the device.
29GB used by apps??? What apps do you have installed?
This is obviously an error on how the hardware is reporting available space to the device. Not totally sure how to fix it....
Huh, strange one. Maybe do a factory reset? Definitely a problem.

It seems that I have no other choices.
Wow I don't know if there are enough apps in the market to fill over 29 GB.
I I just got the same error out of nowhere. 29 gig plus use by my apps. I load up the apps and the biggest one is my gallery with 1.9 gb. There's definite problem reporting somewhere.

Delete some of the more "low rent" apps. Probably bad programming throwing the xoom off.
I just wanted to confirm this just happened to me yesterday as well. I had just checked my storage (aprox. 1.5gb media/2gb apps) then crashed out for a quick nap. About an hour later I awoke, rolled over, grabbed my Xoom and discovered I had the same dreaded memory notification that has plagued my Incredible. Checked storage and suddenly had like 28gb in my apps! Market quit working because of this as well, couldn't update or install apps. I found no other solution other than factory reset as deleting the apps one by one did not free up the space. The last 2 apps I recall downloading were friendstream and tablet keyboard. I was thinking an errant app was downloading all sorts of stuff as I was connected to wifi or perhaps didn't know how to properly utilize the Xoom's memory as it is a little different than your standard Android device. If this is a system OS issue as it is with my Inc, this is totally unacceptable and needs to be identified and addressed by google soon.
Anyone have any other ideas on what is causing this or how to help identify where/how exactly our memory space is vanishing?

Happened to me too. Factory reset 'resolved' it, but didn't really do anything to figure out what the root cause of the issue is... I went so far as to uninstall all the large games on my Xoom and no luck.
I've recently noticed my phone is becoming sluggish and slow. Lockscreen isn't 'fast' (wake up and slide,slider just sits there). There's a 2 second delay when I hit the home button or sleep/wake button before the screen shows anything.
When opening/exiting apps,it takes a couple of seconds,sometimes it gives a black blank screen.
Any one know of any fixes?
What exactly have you done with your phone?
Clearing your cache is something someone will recommend, so ill go ahead and tell you to try wiping your cache.

Well recently I frozen a couple of apps(couple of google syncs stuff I don't use),service menu,street view,tts service,the 4 verify certificate dummy apps <-- are these save to freeze?
That's all I can think of.
choose carefully which ones but with titanium I did an uninstall instead of freeze and my device runs much faster.
If simple tweaks don't work a fresh start will. You could always do a security wipe. worse case yet re flash device with flashtool. anyhow make backups with clockwork mod as you get it where you want it.
I took all my apps off the system and put them on my SD card.
HOWEVER their data remains, you should use sd maid from the market and clean your phone. Despite it's name, it cleans more than the SD card and it has a nice and easy ui!

My Galaxy s5 has been super laggy. I cleared the cache Partition and it runs great...until later tonight or tomorrow morning. Then if I clear the cache Partition again it runs great again. Is there a way to limit how much data the system cache Partition holds so my device will stop lagging? Thanks.
Find out which app is causing the problem and get rid, the cache is not causing the problem, something else is
That sounds right. Is there an app or chart that will show you which app is causing it? I'm not sure how to narrow it down.
There are plenty of apps that show rogue apps that are draining battery or using a high RAM/CPU resource, you could try one of those from the play store
But other than that, look back to approximately when the problem started, and which apps you installed just prior to that (Or however long it takes for the problem to show up once you clear cache) and remove those one by one
Or remove all apps (factory reset) and install them all again one by one
Also check play store app reviews for apps you are suspicious about, and see if anyone else is getting the same problem / google those apps and the problem
Cool. Thanks for the help. And so quickly at that!
Hooray!
I think I found the app. It was Kindlde for Samsung. That thing restarts like crazy. My phone is running much better thanks for the help.
