Does anyone have an issue with a laggy keyboard. It seems like once my message that I'm typing gets longer, its hard for the keyboard to keep up with me. I got rid of the on screen spell check to see if that improves the speed, but doesn't seem to help. I can type out a couple words before it actually shows up on the screen.

I've run into this same exact issue. When typing fast, it gets a few words behind. Happens on CDMA version.

+1 cdma version. The lag is horrific when I am using the keyboard in landscape mode. I am curious to know if it is a problem for everyone as well.

Happening to me quite often. On a GSM version, even in portrait.
The phone had been working great for two weeks and getting a few issues with it in the last three days.

Wasn't impressed with the stock keyboard so I got SwiftKey
Yeah same thing happening here in landscape. I just noticed this yesterday - I don't know if it's just started happening or the honeymoon phase is just wearing off?
there seems to be almost no lag in portrait, but yeah landscape is death.
The only solution at this point is to install a third party keyboard, or just always type in portrait.
I installed SwiftKey and besides couple minor quibbles it works pretty well. In landscape it lags slightly every once in a while but it is nowhere close to the showstopper the stock keyboard is. Definitely something in ICS holding us up and Google needs to get on the ball.

This is a pretty widespread issue. Check out this article: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/12/22/noticing-lag-in-the-ice-cream-sandwich-keyboard-in-landscape-mode/
I run TouchPal keyboard and don't notice any lag.
If you have a laggy keyboard switch off the force hardware acceleration option.

Sometimes my screen rotate when in browser or an app that supports rotation the accelerometer lags behind a bit
Anyone else had this ?

It has to do with the animation speed mostly. You can adjust that in developer options.
I have them all off.

I'm pretty surprised to see people saying that they have not experienced it. It's one of the worst bugs with the phone and lots of people are experiencing it:

I'm on 4.0.3. Maybe that is why.
yeah I know that problem. experienced it mainly allot in the browser

If you need to tap the phone to get the accelerometer to work, then it's probably faulty and you should ask fro an exchange/repair.
But if you are just experiencing a small delay, that's apparently a feature in ICS to prevent accidental rotation. At first I found it incredibly annoying but it actually works in preventing unwanted rotations.
Galaxy Nexus CDMA stock 4.02 here. It has definitely been a problem for me. It takes a good 2+3 full seconds to rotate for me. Lucky for me i spend 90% of my time in portrait.
VZW GN and yeah I got the same thing. Its really annoying but I cant tell if its more or less annoying than having the screen accidentally rotate...
Either way this should be something we can control in the developer options, like give us a time delay before screen will rotate.
All,
Just wanted what your preference is with the keyboard? I'm usually a SwiftKeyX user but just flashed a 4.0.3 Rom and been setting up my phone using the default and its really not that bad. I still love Swiftkey, but hate the fact sometimes it lags when I'm doing major txt'ng or whatsapp between multiple people.
Your thoughts?

I came from a Droid X with Swype and so I just ended up using Swype modded for ICS. I DL'ed Swiftkey when they first came out and had their half price sale, but could never get used to it. Tried using stock, but for me, once I got used to Swype, pressing every single letter became a little tedious.
I use SwiftKey X and prefer it over stock still.
The default keyboard with auto correct turned up to very aggressive is pretty badass
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
My favorite is Smart Keyboard Pro. I used stock for a while in the beginning because I always like trying stock first. It was just laggy unfortunately. I figure they'll fix that in an update. It also didn't have my custom emoticons I'd programmed into Smart Keyboard. That just won't do! ^_^

Hey guys, something has really bothered me lately. The whole OS is so smooth and all, but everytime I leave an app or leave the app drawer then opening it again has a very nasty lag that is a very big turn off. I searched for this issue and saw that I wasnt the only one who had this problem.
Here is the same lag on the Nexus 7:

and on the Galaxy Nexus:

Could anyone tell me how to why this issue is found on Jelly Bean and how to fix it? I'm on stock 4.1.1 btw.
get apex launcher and turn off the app drawer fly in animation.
i noticed this too,but only in the first page of the app drawer...

Dude, how can you even count that as lag? I run Ubuntu 12 on my laptop and it lags like ****. I run Windows 7 on a high-end desktop.. it lags like **** sometimes. There is seriously about 0.1ms of lag there, get over it.
Does it bother you that it takes several seconds for your web browser to open XDA? "Damnit, this bothers me!!! The interwebz LAGS!!!"
At first I thought you were running ics which does have lag, then I saw the nexus 7 video. I watched it and started laughing my ass off, there's not even a slight bit of lag in that. And my device doesn't lag neither.

Maybe my eyes are lagging, I missed it.
I can't believe people are so obsessed with micro lag that is not even visible to 80% of people. Suck it up already, no need to tell the whole world about how your app drawer launches 0.1 mill second slower. Its not the end of the world.

Yes, but not when opening the drawer, but switching to the next page.
And I wouldn't call it laggy, it just reacts with delay to the swipe. The swipe itself is perfectly smooth.
SMH.
I saw it!
Oh, no wait, I didn't. You crazy, bro.
Have you tried setting window animation scale, transition animation scale, and animator duration scale in settings --> developer settings to 0.5x or 0x at all?
I know exactly what you're talking about, so don't worry about everyone else. Unfortunately I don't have a fix for it either.

Even that lag is nonexistent if you wait a split second to scroll after opening the drawer. It's called the launcher has to populate the apps and widgets on first launch/scroll. If you launch the drawer and go for the first scroll "as fast as you possibly can" then you're just purposely looking for a microsecond of lag to complain about.

I'm sure this topic has been discussed before but I want to know which keyboard you guys like more? I like the fact you can use the Samsung keyboard in one handed mode, but the flow through space function is neat on SwiftKey Flow. I also think that the prediction is a bit better than the stock keyboard.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
The stock keyboard doesn't auto replace. That alone makes it completely unusable for me. Swiftkey is what I use, and flow makes it easier to use with one hand...
Yeah I have to agree with you, and the predictions that SwiftKey does is top notch. I am also a fan of the number pad.

Same here, if the stock keyboard had a auto correct, i wouldn't need to look around for an alternative keyboard. It's just a shame that swiftkey doesn't work in all text boxes (ie. play store searching)
Which version of SwiftKey BETA are you guys using? I downloaded the standard version, but there is also a tablet version. I have SwiftKey X Tablet version, as I think it's better than the regular one for the Note.
I tried both the regular and tablet version of SwiftKey a couple of weeks ago and both looked pretty much the same, apparently the tablet functions are not enabled on the Note II. I decided against them at the time because they did not have swipe.
Installed SwiftKey Flow Beta yesterday morning (standard, not tablet, based on past experience and it was stated that landscape does not work yet in tablet beta version) and LOVE IT, it's definitely a keeper. Have been using it extensively and have not run into any apparent issues yet (including in Google Play search box, it works fine for me).
I'm a swiftkey user but hadn't been using it as I wanted to see if I could get used to the handwriting recognition on the stock keyboard. That didn't work too well for me so I started using flow. I'm on the international rom in the dev section and it has the 4.2 keyboard. The flow works very well, the autospacing took a little while to get used, I found myself running words together. I was surprised how good the word recognition was and the predictions were pretty good too. I just installed the Swiftkey beta and the spacing is much better as you just glide over the space bar. I like the keyboard layout better with the long press for the symbols. SwiftKey is the winner for me but the stock 4.2 keyboard is not bad at all.
is it possible to use something like Tasker to automate the switch from swiftkey to stock Samsung keyboard when you activate multiview?
I mainly use swiftkey as my default but i switch to the samsung keyboard in multiview since I can move it around. it'd be awesome if this process could be automated.
Does any one know how to turn on the flow function one in the keyboard? Because it seems when you just type the letters it turns off.

Thanks. Pretty much my experience, too. I current have both versions installed. Didn't see a difference, so based on what you stated, I guess I'll uninstall the tablet version.
Flow seems really good... it's just that I don't know how to be very fluid with it. There's a bit of a learning curve — at least for me. I love the fact that you don't really ever have to lift your finger off of the keypad, but I find that doesn't seem very practical in most situations. Sometimes it gets a complete sentence right ... other times it will start to get it right, but at the last second change up into something totally different ... and other times it doesn't come close. So until I get figure out how to get it right most of the time, that edge over Swype isn't really there in that regard, but I find the auto-prediction and spelling corrections much better than anything Swype has to offer.
When someone release a rom for our phone with the Android 4.2 keyboard then I'll be sticking with that.

I think it was a fluke for me as it only happened once..but i was trying to fill out an online form and suddenly the kb freaked and touches registered everywhere. An L would type an E, etc. I rebooted and it resolved but I went ahead and d/l google kb to try it for a while.

Yeah. It'll just stop working. I'll back out of what I was typing and try again. Same thing. Since I starting using Swype, no problems. It's just the native keyboard that's the issue.

ya i used to be a huge fan of the keyboard when i first got the phone...but it seem the more they update, the more it get screw up went back to google keyboard...
After the last two updates, my keyboard has spiralled out of control.
Making it almost impossible to use.
It always picks the second word to what you type. And I usually hit each letter versus swyping.
And anytime I try to put a period after a word, it autocorrects to an acronym...
I love this keyboard because of appearance and the emoji shortcut. But all this glitchiness is getting so bad.
Has anyone else had the same issues? I'm wondering if it's my phone
