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 thought this was in relation to auto brightness?

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.
hi guys am new here but I just have switched my galaxy nexus on and the 4.2 update was ready to install. As soon as I installed it I started having the same problem as I have on my nexus 4, and that is they both get hot when browsing or watching YouTube. I never had this on my gnex before the update to 4.2. I think its a problem with 4.2. Anyway else noticed this?

Loving the n4 however having issues with 4.2
Wife has a nexus 7 which had 0 issues with WiFi and Bluetooth before the update and now has issues with both. My nexus 4 is having the very same issues as well now.
I wish I made a nandroid when I first got the phone but of course I was too eager right away and updated. I searched for 4.1.2 but have had no luck.
Anyone else know?

i think it came with a prerelease software of 4.2... i don't think we ever had 4.1.2.. not sure didn't check before ota..
You had no luck because the device never had 4.1.2 to begin with.

okay ive been seeing a lot of bug reports,systemui crashes on 4.3 roms, even on stock 4.3. if this update was so important and everyone says its better why all the bug reports? im honestly thinking of reverting back to 4.2.2. it seemed a lot more stable. just seeing if anyone has the answer to all these damn bugs.
I haven't experienced any bugs using my Nexus 7 with Android 4.3, both on stock and PA. It may seem that many people are experiencing bugs, but there may also be x times more that do not experience them and simply keep their mouth shut.

Stock rooted 4.3. No issues here.
Try to reflash stock ROM.

Bugs? What bugs? I got 4.3 OTA (I run stock on the 7), rooted it and haven't looked back. I'm currently at 17 days uptime, seems perfectly stable to me.

Tablet works normally without any evident issues....why im seeing this artifacts before the google logo and how can i fix it? It is software or hardware related? Thank you very much i hope someone can help me here is the video :

I have noticed that on both 4.3 and 4.4. Wasn't there on 4.2.
Im not sure if the issue was there before updating since i just updated the tablet by ota to the last 4.4.4 as soon i get it. I tried a clean flash from stock and the artifacts on boot are still there...i cant flash other custom roms because im stock and locked....more infos are appreciated I would like to know if its normal and if its hardware or software issue
Thank you very much

Mine has always had that as well. I don't think it's that big of a deal since they disappear right away. Possibly a combination of hardware and software. Maybe due to the Mali GPU chip? I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. Seems to be pretty common on this device. Now if they don't disappear, then that's a problem.

Yes the artifacts disappear after the google logo. This thing happen only with the stock rom or even with custom roms? Unfortunately i cant try since its a gift, i hope this artifacts are not sign of a hardware defect.

I was using SlimBean 4.2.2 correctly, but updating to SlimKat 4.4 this problem appeared, but I also updated TWRP from 2.6.3.0 to 2.7.10.
Same problem with others ROMS as Purity and RastaKat and different kernels as KTManta and Trinity.
Are you using TWRP or CWM?

Thanks for sharing your experience. Im using the stock recovery since my nexus 10 its stock locked and unrooted. So every nexus 10 owner who updated to kitkat would experience this thing...This issue has been reported to google? My retailer told me that i can RMA the device but if every Nexus 10 have this artifacts at boot then its useless to RMA.…also im new to the Nexus 10 forum as i own a nexus 7. This problem has been mentioned on other topics? Thank you

Ok, then this must be a problem with Google's sources (a GPU driver error?) because it is a common issue between different ROMs, Kernels and recoveries, but I do not know if Google has been notified.
