Yesterday, and it's happened before, I was trying to use the Internet and both Chrome and the AOSP browser kept crashing. Also, and this is much more common, the keyboard refuses to come up sometimes, when it finally decides to show up, it disappears again when I try typing. It's happened quite a few times, it renders the tablet useless.
I'm rooted/stock.

Anyone have the same bug? It happens on some sites, the site loads but when scrolling it just returns to my home screen without a notification why....so no forceclose i guess?
I only have this when I use (install) flash, so I stay away from it untill 3.1 and wil test again.
I have the same issue sometimes. It happened once today, actually. It's really very rare for me so it isn't that big of a deal and I'm sure that whatever is causing it will be addressed in an update soon. Just wish that update would arrive sooner than later. =/

I have had it a few times with www.nu.nl.
Scrolling is not even neccessary, it justs closes to the home screen after a few seconds. Have had it a few times now.

Has happened exactly twice for me, that's less often than Firefox 4 crashes on my desktop so I'm not worried
I have lots of fc from many different apps. Chrome is laggy and sometimes hang while browsing xda. GPS stops working all the time. Gallery has corrupted thumbnails. This is after fully updating the tablet and doing a factory reset. Is my tablet defective?
No issues so far for me... This tablet is noticeably faster and smoother than the older Nexus 7....
I seem to have fixed most of my problems including the GPS by doing a factory reset and not using any Google account to register the device during initial setup. I think the problem is that other programs from my other Google device are being restored onto this tablet. Google search will fc if i use voice for searches though. Gallery still displays corrupted thumbnails.
The GPS issue is one thing that has been reported elsewhere and it looks like google is looking at that. I've had the GPS quit working on my tablet too. The other annoying problem I have with this tablet is that it refuses to turn on much of the time. I keep pressing the power button, holding for different intervals and eventually it does turn on. I think I heard this is another problem some people have reported.

I've been fighting this on and off since the MF9 update. Originally I thought I just had bad reception where I was at the time but now, even with wifi and 4g network I still get this.
Basically I'll be typing...could be Galaxy keyboard OR SWYPE and suddenly the keyboard will stop responding. Even if I hit the "home" button to get out the app (usually I notice this in web browser but it doesn't appear to be app-related) the keyboard overlay will persist and can't be killed. I can make it go away by pulling down the notification bar where the "select input method" icon is still displaying and select whichever input method wasn't in use when it hung, but I still won't be able to type anything until the keyboard catches up....sometimes that takes several minutes, sometimes I have to reboot the phone. I noticed that some words or phrases are more likely to cause this lockup than others. Ironically, "galaxy s4" will do it almost every time.
The only way I've found to prevent this from happening is to turn off all predictive features on the keyboard including predictive text and swiftkey. I've tried updating my language and pretty much everything else but nothing works permanently. I can get it to work temporarily by clearing data on the keyboard service too, but it always comes back when it's least convenient (like when I'm trying to enter an address into GPS and in a hurry). This started after the MF9 update. At one point I even did an ODIN wipe and reinstalled from a stock image....still does it.
anyone else getting this?
Yeah, I've been noticing this happening to me lately too. I use the Swype keyboard though. It's quite frustrating.
I've gotten used to the Google keyboard and haven't switched to something else since. Yes, it's not perfect, but it suits my needs.
Hi folks
I wonder if any of you is encountering the horrendous issue of slowness in opening websites with Chrome, Firefox and stock browser unless I reboot the phone.
It's really weird because the web address is found and opened immediately, but the page stays white and loading almost 90 % for about a minute before it finishes loading and showing the site entirely.
But as soon as I reboot the device all browsers load fast and open websites immediately.
I have no idea what app causes this or how long time passes before the slowness begin.
-Cache deletion doesn't help.
-Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help either.
I appreciate your feedback on this.
Hi. I foolishly updated to NK1 a month or so ago assuming there was a root. Since the update, I've been having some really annoying basic functionality problems with my Note 3 (outside of it feeling sluggish overall). I've gotten around keyboard freezes, input lag and general f-ups in the Messenger app by switching to Textra. The now nonexistent haptic feedback was "fixed" by increasing the vibration length for each key on the keyboard. For some apps, I've sideloaded an old version to get them to behave like they did before the update. However, there are a few other issues that I'm hoping someone may have some ideas how to fix.
1) YouTube will constantly error out when trying to load a video and my subscriptions list. The white circle will just spin and spin until it finally gives me a "video cannot load" error. If a video won't load, it won't load no matter how many times I click on it to refresh it. I'll have to either close the app and reopen it, or for the really difficult times, restart my phone. Also, if I shrink the app rather than close it when I'm done, no videos will play when I reopen the app unless I close it or restart my phone.
2) The stock camera clears its settings whenever it feels like it. Auto flash, face detection and image stabilization will randomly turn from "on" and "auto" to "off."
3) All of the web browsers (Opera, Chrome, default browser) and Google Maps just randomly hang for about 2 minutes as they try to load data from Wi-Fi and 4G signals. It's similar to what happens with YouTube but they eventually fix themselves after these long hiccups.
4) Often when the backlight turns off before the phone is going to sleep and I touch the screen to keep it awake, the backlight gets stuck in its turned off state, making it hard to see the screen. The only way to get around this is to put the phone to sleep and then wake it up. It does this at least a few times a day.
5) Pulling down the notification bar will sometimes randomly cause my phone screen to start flashing between the notification bar and the lock screen. I have to do a hard reset when this happens.
Thanks in advance for the help! I'm sorry this post is so long. I hate this update and am seriously considering going to HTC.
Have you tried a factory reset?
I have not. I was trying to avoid that if possible and use a last resort.

It's probably your best option. But first try clearing data in the offending apps. Or making sure the apps are updated, or even unibnstalling and reinstalling the apps.
