I've been using poweramp for as long as I can remember now, but ever since installing it on my 6P I've noticed there is some serious lag when "next" to change a song. Was wondering if anyone else that's using poweramp on their 6P experiencing the same thing and if you have found a fix or the reason why.
Thanks.
no issues here, running Pure Nexus with elmentalx kernel
I've been using them as well for quite sometime as well. However I have noticed this issue since the last few updates -_-. I have noticed this primarily on my Note 4. The delay in changing songs doesn't always move fast, once it finally changes to the next track, if you hit next again and again it moves fast like it normally would. l haven't noticed this on my nexus though, but I know exactly what you are describing

Alright, I am currently on my third Nexus 7 and getting a little frustrated. I really love this device and would love to customize it the way I want but I hold back just in case I have to return another one. My question is, is anyone else experiencing problems with their tablet randomly freezing? I havent seen any forums discussing this particular problem. I have a hunch it could be the Facebook app that is causing this but that is just a theory. Below is a video of said freezing problems. Sorry for the quality; it was late, i was drinking and enjoying Netflix.
Not that I've heard of, but a quick forum search would easily confirm or deny this.
Edit reason: added detail.

If your anything like me I'm constantly force stopping apps because why should they still be running of I'm not using it, right? Well I was having the same issue as you. Freezing and studdering on a quad core CPU. Mainly it was freezing in the settings menu. So I stopped force closing all these apps I usually do and the freezing stopped. I'm on about a week in with my 3rd nexus 7 and not one freeze. So if you do do as I do try just letting the apps be and "kill" them instead.

The way android is designed, apps are supposed to run in the background. Your not supposed to have a lot of free ram. 100 mb of free ram is the same as 5 mb... If it's free ram it isn't doing anything but being wasted just sitting there. Task killers are useless since eclair 2.1.the reason apps run the in the background is so you can open an app where you last left off. Among lots of other reasons. Let android manage the tasks it's really good at it.

I've had a few freezing issues on my nexus 7. I've only had it a couple of days. It becomes completely unresponsive for minutes and never recovers. I have to hold down the power button until it shuts off (20 seconds maybe).
I've had a number of other quirks that really show (to me) that you get what you pay for. Its a cheap tablet with a top end CPU/GPU, but that's about it.
Not sure what my next step is, but I doubt I would be happy with the shortcomings of the Nexus 7 even if I had a perfect device. I think I just like higher end devices is all, and I don't mind paying more for something that just works with no compromise.
Again just my opinion.

No such problems here, but if I were you I would use the Linux command line commands : top, ps, free, df. With those you should be able to find out if an app or process is misbehaving. You need to install the terminalIDE app and read about those commands.

Freezing issues
I just purchsed one... Used it for 2 days. After using for a while I consistantly had freezing, particularly when typing. I called it in for a RMA refund. Don't know what the issue is, but moving on to something more tried and true.

Freezing - yes now and then...
My Nexus 7 freezes occasionally. I have noticed that when it restarts there's a bunch of updates. Me thinks that maybe the CPU was busy doing updates while I was keying in / touching the screen etc and couldn't cope...but maybe not. These apps seem to update a lot, same goes for my notso :silly: smartphone.
Anybody else come back to your Nexus 7 that is actually completely off and requires a power button and volume down hold in order to restart? Also I find the Android OS is consuming much of the battery in some instances.

Bought my N7 three days ago and it worked brilliantly after installing all my apps from the play store then I got the message to update the OS from 4.2 to 4.2.1 which I duly obliged. Thereafter it was a totally different device with crazy stuttering just swiping home screens and and solid freezes on chrome which was especially bad. I had to do at least half dozen soft re sets when everything ground to a halt and a factory wipe none of which helped. I spent this afternoon using the nexus toolkit to unlock+root my N7 and installed nightly CyanogenMod 10.1 with jb20121212 Gapps and individually reinstalled+tested every app from play store including Chrome. Its (thankfully) now buttery smooth again and I've not had any problems whatsoever in the past 8 hours of using it. This surprised me as CM10.1 is based on 4.2.1 and maybe suggests its a problem with the stock Gapps included in the OTA?
I love android but Google are releasing these updates before they're ready and it makes the OS look unreliable in the eyes of the average consumer who has no interest in rooting and flashing roms.

I bought my wife a first generation Nexus 7 about 2 years ago and everything was fine with the tablet and is now updated with stock 4.4.4. Recently she started noticing that it would freeze for no reason and finally it got to the point where it would freeze very soon after it was booted up. I cleaned the cache and factory reset but the problem persisted. Obviously the unit is out of warranty but I called Asus to see if they could offer any advice. The only answers I got was that they couldn't do anything and it sounded like there was a problem with the motherboard. They also told me I could sent the tablet in for repairs but it would probably cost around $200! After laughing out loud at this ridiculous amount I told them I'd just go buy a Samsung Tab 4 for my wife and forget the Nexus. I bought the 8 inch Tab 4 and my wife is happy with the functioning of the product. BUT, I decided to give the Nexus 7 another chance at life so I utilized the Nexus Root Toolkit and I kept the stock 4.4.4 ROM instead of going the custom ROM route. I am pleased to report that there was NO motherboard problem and this tablet is working great so I am now the proud owner of the Nexus 7.
3year later. Still the same on 5.0.2
I really want to break this tablet on someones head who made it.
After 5.02 ...
It slowed down substantially. I did the "clear cache" which helped a little. It's so slow web browsing that I may as well not even try ... often 15 seconds to a minute to respond to a link click.
SO ... use it mostly for the Kindle app. I don't think it is the app fault, but when it locks up now, I see nothing on the screen; finally determined that it was in the process of downloading an update to some app or another, and the downloading locks the system if the kindle app is on the screen ... and seems to be a major slowdown other times.
Maybe there will be a 5.03 getting the performance back to KitKat levels.
I'm fairly new the Nexus Player. In fact I just got mine today. So far I'm really liking it. However I recently updated to Android Lollipop 5.1.1 and have noticed scrolling issues. Seems like every time I scroll through the Google Play store or Google Movies and TV app about every five or so tiles it'll skip back three. It's very irritating. Not sure if it's a bug or not. Anybody else notice this and if so how did you go about fixing it ?
Edit: NVM after further reading of posts on this topic this seem to indeed be a weird glitch/bug reportedly for anyone using android lollipop 5.0 and above that hasn't been fixed by Google as of yet

Since the last update to the Google photos app on both mine and my wife's Nexus 10 both running lollipop 5.1.1, videos stutter as if its missing frames or don't show any image at all just sound. It all works fine on my Nexus 5 so must be specific to the Nexus 10. Has anyone else noticed this and found a solution?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk
Have the same problem.
Went to App-Info and uninstalled updates.
Is this the only solution for now?
Yes. I have just received another update to the photos app but its still the same. Let's hope Google fix it soon.

Bad thing is I have this issue on nexus 6. It definitely needs a fix!
I have the same issue. But what's interesting here is that unlike the first post's writer told I have it on nexus 5 running android 5.1.1. Currently using MX player and videos work just fine.
Hmmm. Also Nexus 6 here.
I have the same problem on my Nexus 6. I though it started when I uninstalled a previous update to Camera/Photos last month sometime. Every video I playback through Photos stutters, but at least through Camera I can change the default video player. Wish I could do the same for Photos. Also, just notice a generally lag on my Nexus 6 recently...
I hate wiping and starting fresh, but I just may have to.
The bug is still here. Version 1.30 on Nexus 6. Damned mumbai programmers...
The stuttering is still here on v. 1.4.0.102264174 on Nexus 6 running android 5.1.1_r12. However, the issue can be fixed by going to developer settings and switching from NuPlayer to AwesomePlayer in Media settings.

Wow, thanks Kariharri! That works!
Have you experienced lag in Nexus 6p?
Mine mostly lags in developer setting for example when I toggle sRGB it lags a little and when I open the developer setting after restart. Also when I was restoring my apps in play store I tried to cancel one of the apps and it said google play is not responsive.
There will be certain services that are going to lag for everyone, most of the time its when processes happen that are allowed to utilize all processing power. Such as installing apps.
For me it doesn't lag for anything beside developer options. It might be a software issue that gets fixed with an update. Other than that, it's been the fastest Android device I've owned so far.

This is the fastest android I've owned too, but I came from Samsung galaxy s3 i9300 which is 3 years old and it is touchWiz. Most of the times the only thing that lags is developer options and rarely it lags in the play store. Hopefully they will fix the issues in a software update.
I haven't had any lag whatsoever on my 6P, although my Nexus 9 suffers from terrible lag, which is very annoying since the lag on my original Nexus 7 was the whole reason I bought the 9.
I've had some other issues with the 6P, such as Bluetooth randomly disconnecting and not reconnecting until after a reboot, and the camera app has completely frozen up once or twice.
But otherwise it's undoubtedly the best Nexus device I've ever owned.

Yes but I wouldn't call it lag. It only happened first time when setting up the device and seemed like app became unresponsive.
Not lag as such but as a device as a whole it's slower than my S6.

There is no lag whatsoever in the device. I have had two apps force close, which I guess is the marshmallow incompatibility issue. This phone is blazing fast

Mine has run smooth on most things. Occasionally coming out of finger print scan it is sluggish. However, overall it performs well.

In general, opening apps etc. Both phones are super powerful though.

I am having this issue too. Opening apps, using the fingerprint scanner, hitting the recents button, sometimes they lag or are sluggish almost to the point where I have to hit them again because I think that the tap didn't register. Then it opens twice or opens/closes because of the sluggishness. It's really strange and beginning to think it's an app or a kernel issue.
I have been using Android N preview 3 since it was released. It seems sometimes that my Nexus 6p will slowdown and lag. As well as random reboot. It almost seems like there is a memory leak of some sort. I find it start getting bad when using Chrome browser, which I am using the latest build of. But it could be something else. Anyone else having similar problems?
I've had it pretty bad when I leave Snapchat running in the background

As N is in beta and for development purposes only you should expect it to not work right. Issue a bug report. It's what Google wants you to do. It's the whole purpose of the beta process.
I realize that and I have provided feedback to Google about it. I was also asking the community if they had related issues as I am.
Over the past two days, I started getting some random reboots. Clearing the cache in recovery seems to have addressed the issue for me.
It's worth a try just to see if the random reboots disappear.
Thank you I just tried it. Forgot about that trick lol
