Screen unresponsive - Nexus 7 (2013) General

Basically, my N7's screen is frequently unresponsive. I was trying to start something in my launcher, and tried pressing it at least 6 times, but nothing happened. Then I tried swiping between launcher pages, and that worked just fine the first time.
This just started happening on an almost constant basis within the last 30-60 minutes, and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or heard of anyone else experiencing it. I'm running the latest Minimus with Jassy's latest kernel (I just flashed them this morning, but it was probably 4-5 hours ago at least), with the DPI set to 290 (I just raised it from 280 to see if that would help anything). I also cleared the cache and dalvik.
Any ideas?

My girlfriends tablet has done that too, then it just randomly goes back to just fine

Why don't you try stock and see if you have an issue. This would allow you to rule things out at least.

Same issue here...both stock and CleanROM

me as well. And this is my second tablet after returning the first one for dead pixels

My tablet is stock rooted and I have just experienced this. I had to reboot in order to fix it. Hopefully this doesn't happen again.

Same here this has happened to me on stock, but a reboot fixed it.

I've only experienced this using Chrome. it got so bad that I'm using the molasses-in-the-winter-going-up-hill Firefox browser just to be able to web surf.

Same here stock, and clean ROM.. Haven't noticed anything on kanged cm nor pa yet. Can't get otg to work worth a crap either I bought chainfires app to help with otg worked with stock based ROMs but not cm based ROMs .. I'm pissed I bought the 16 GB model..

It happened to me as well (complete stock). Mostly (if not all) instances were with Chrome. I don't remember it happening again since I switched to Chrome beta. (Fingers crossed).

I just took mine back to Best Buy and exchanged it for the 32gb model. The guy at the store asked if anything was wrong with the tablet and I told him that it would freeze up and I would have to reboot in order to fix it. He told me that all tablets and phones freeze like that and that I should reboot the device at least once a day to prevent the freezing of the screen. I thanked him and told him that I would do that. These salesmen must think that everyone is as dumb as they are.
I hope my new tablet doesn't have the same problem, because if it does I might give up on the new nexus 7.

Nexus 7 - Gone sluggish post install of Cerberus...? Is the common?

Installed Cerberus having seen many folks on here rave about bit, but got to say since installing it, coincidentally or otherwise, my N7 has become very sluggish and unresponsive at times.. not yet uninstalled Cerberus to see if this is the answer as I'm not convinced yet...
Anybody with similar, or other suggestions?
Running Stock is un-rooted as per out the box.

Have Cerberus installed without issue. Rooted, stock though I don't think that is an issue.
Sent from my Nexus 7
One of the first apps I installed on mine. It is still stock, not rooted.
I have not noticed any issues.
Rooted with stock. NO issues with Cerberus for me.
OK thanks for the feedback, will see what else could be the cause then... may be a lack of storage space now I'm down to under 1GB... my do a a factory reset and re-load my apps, especially as Asphelt7 will tonight no longer load properly.. stuck a Gameloft splash-screen

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.

OTA 4.3 - Bad WiFi

My Nexus 7 was becoming very unresponsive and pissing me off. Was on older JB version and Paranoid Android. I flashed back to stock/wipe all and then allowed 4.3 OTA update, rerooted. Now my Wifi is EXTREMELY slow. Buddy and I at work put my N7 side by side with his iPad on the same wireless at work and his was flying through sites, with mine timing out left and right.
Any ideas why the radios are so crappy now? Did I ruin something in the flashing processes?
Would love if someone had an answer for this. I have a stock N7 (2012) and have the EXACT same problem. Ever since it updated itself to 4.3 my wifi has been remarkably slow. Can't stream any video at all. I do speedtests on my S4 right next to my tablet, and the phone is 12mbps down with the tablet being about 200 kbps. It's unbearable, I can't figure out whats going on. Tried all the usual fixes with no help.
What normal fixes have you used? I'll see if they fix my issue.

The usual. Clearing caches, factory reset, reseting my router. What i ended up having to do was root it and put an android 4.2.2 rom onto it. Immediately solved my problem and I am pulling down around 12mbps now and can stream video :laugh:. I can't believe you and I are the only ones out there with this problem but maybe. I hope next update google will fix this, i like having the stock firmware on a nexus device.
Oh, ok. Thought there were some 'normal' tools/apps to try. I'm with you, hopefully something is found soon.
Quick question, what type of router do you have at home?
Try doing a clean install of 4.3
I'm not having any problems with download/upload speeds.

Yeah, that was the first thing I tried. No luck with that. Like I said once I switched back to a 4.2.2 based rom the tablet's internet has been as fast as it's supposed to be.

Nexus Rebooting?

Hi all,
I am currently on Cleanrom 1.3 with faux kernel. No overclock. Today I took my nexus off the charger and it rebooted itself. I understand that using custom kernel and rom will cause some instability but I've heard that the newest nexus 7 does have random reboots stock. I am still under return period, and I am just wondering if anyone else had experienced this and will you keep this knowing it might be a software issue.

I am on stock.
I had a reboot problem with mine. It showed about %50 battery life when it would first startup, then suddenly it would reboot, and continue the boot loop. I reset/clear cache and it would still happen. Then I fully charged the battery then it worked again. I exchanged it because I don't want to deal with the hassle and did not find anyone else with this problem. Only had 2 more days to return it, so I went for it.
I think the problem I actually had was the battery, it was reporting to the device that it was about 50% when it probably had none. I kept wondering why after so long of heavy usage the battery wasn't ran down already. Since you just took it off the charger, I don't know about your case.
Hopefully I won't see the problem with the exchanged one. I say, if you suspect a hardware issue, replace it. If it is a software issue, maybe they will fix it with an update. Good luck.
Mine reboots allot on stock, very annoying!

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.
