Alright this is really weird
It happens about 1/10 times, and whenever I try to open the music app... my ScoreCenter app opens instead. I open it from my homescreen or from the app drawer, both open ScoreCenter.
The problem persists until I swipe it away from the multitasking menu. Here's a screenshot so you know what I'm taking about: http://imgur.com/c2tCF.jpg
Weird
Yeah that actually happened to me today. It's happened to every android phone I've ever owned. I'm not sure what causes it.
It doesn't occur often so it doesn't bother me much.

just started see this, when ever I try to open the camera it will sometimes close itself and open up bing search. It is not happening all the time but is happening often and not only with the camera app.
has anyone seen this.
i'm using a samsung focus
You're accidentially hitting the search button. Or yours is ultra sensitive and reacts from hitting the edge of the casing.
try turning the phone off and back on. my little sister's mozart wasn't launching the camera app and a restart with the phone fixed it. not sure what caused the issue but she hasn't complained since.
I'm having this really weird issue with these two apps for a while. Basically I would keep getting connection error in the Play store or on Youtube every few minutes or so, then I would retry and everything would be back to normal. Odd thing is that I can have a browser open in a side window and go to google or any other website just fine while this issue happens. I'm not sure if there's more google apps affected. Hell one time it was so bad that Youtube refused to load for a good minute or so, I opened a pen window for the browser, loaded up the same youtube video in there and it started playing before the app even loaded it (kept giving me connection error).
I have Adblock Plus running in the background so I wonder if that's what's doing this..but it seems odd for it to affect these apps.
Any ideas to fix this?

I don't have Adblock but I have issues with YouTube App aswell. It works most of the time flawlessly but sometimes like you it seems to take to long to load so what I do is close the app fully then launch it again and it works fine, I also had another weird issue of whenever I played a video in full screen and changed the tablets orientation it would dim the brightness to 0% (even changing the screens brightness to 100% wouldn't cause the app to brighten up) and hoy a "small weird box with what looked like signal bars next to it", this hasn't happened the last few times I used the tablet but its just bizarre so deffo something is up with the App that's for sure.
I've had the zenwatch for almost 2 weeks and i will be keeping it. That being said here is a heads up, i found that using the app facer to make watch faces and using wear mini launcher together causes a good bit of lag when performing any action on the watch. to remedy this issue i downlaoded watch maker and low behold the lag went away. so if anyone is haven a lag issue check into what apps you are use to make your watch faces and also what launcher u have choosen. hope you guys find this helpfull .
So, did you uninstall wear mini launcher ?

no i switched to watch maker it works better with min launcher
I've actually had this happen a number of times and I'm not sure why. It doesn't seem to have a consistent cause. Usually it'll be when I install a new app or something, but it's happened other times as well, but it doesn't happen consistently with one app or another. For me, the lag shows up as the screen basically being frozen without being able to control anything. Eventually, it will unfreeze and I'll usually see the mini-launcher screen, but even a restart with the back button won't solve the freeze.
For me, it was worse when I had Mini Launcher installed, but it still happens occasionally without it. I no longer have either Facer or Watchmaker installed, either. I'm using the Weather Watch Face, though. I wonder if it has something to do with watch faces in general?
When I was using Mini Launcher, apps would almost never launch the first time I tapped on them. It would go back to the watch face and freeze for a few seconds, and force me to go back to Mini Launch and tap again. Without Mini Launcher, this still happens occasionally from the built-in Start... item, but much less frequently.
I have all 3 installed and it doesn't seem to lag too bad. I guess I don't interact with it the same as I would with a phone so it doesn't bother me at all. Whenever I get a card it interacts with it seamlessly, that's about as much as I need it to do

Interacting with cards hasn't been a problem for me, either, it's launching an app that's not already running that seems to be the issue. Sometimes (or almost every time for me with Mini Launcher), the new app doesn't come to the foreground, and the watch appears to hang for several seconds. It then has to be launched a second time to become visible.
I've definitely seen it lag like that. Hopefully it's just a software issue with android wear being so new and updates will help fix that. It's got plenty of processor and ram torrun the tiny apps no problem
I noticed a considerable amount of lag while using mini launcher. To the point that I didn't even want to show off the watch to other people because it made it seem terrible. Major difference since uninstalling, lag free now. I also use Watch Maker and a few Play Store watchfaces with no lag issues.
Wish we could move the start menu to the first selection on the tap screen instead of the last, then I really wouldn't care about a separate launcher.
1+ for deleting mini launcher. I like the app but its so dam laggy. As far as Watch Maker app works at times for me so I deleted that as well. I was using Facer until I ran into Intellicom which seems to be very easy to use and no change in my battery life.
I think this is more of a symptom of using a single core A7 processor. I imagine all of the governors and IO schedules are set up for battery life so that probably doesn't help either. It might just be coincidence that you are running something while a background task is also running.
I use swiftkey keyboard and sometimes it seems to start lagging. I'll type too fast for it to catch up and it's quite annoying. Other times it's perfect and very responsive. It seems like it starts happening randomly. I thought it could be a ram issue but a couple times it's started happening I've closed all apps and cleared ram and it doesn't fix it. I even cleared swiftkey cache. Any ideas? I should mention I type pretty fast.
Two diagnostic questions:
(1) When Switfkey starts lagging, do you also get a lag in the sound-feedback on the stock phone dialer?
(2) Does the Swiftkey delay go away if you turn off sound-feedback for typing?

You mean does the typing sound lag as well or just the sound if I open up the phone app and dial to make a call?
I did a lot of research last night about this and found others with the same problem... Someone said that if you clear your clipboard from the settings in your keyboard the lag goes away.. I did that last night and the keyboard has never felt father. How come that would cause it to start lagging?
Nope, the lag doesn't go away even if I have sound and vibration off. The only thing that seems to have made a huge difference is clearing the clipboard. I don't think it's placebo because it literally hasn't went into lag mode a single time since I did that.
Also, when it would go into lag mode, the keyboard lag wasn't too terrible ever in the messaging app built into the phone however facebook messenger, kik, and Google search were pretty horrible.
After more research I found more posts. Someone said having accessibility option enabled for nova launcher is causing this. I took about 10 screen shots and my keyboard immediately started lagging again. I cleared clipboard and lag fixed. I then disabled nova accessibility, took 10 screen shots, and it DID NOT LAG even with all of those in clipboard. I'm now convinced it's nova launcher causing this issue....

So what did you do Nova launcher?
I have been having this minor problem that when I don't use a web-based app like Chrome for a couple hours, there will be a clear delay when closing Chrome. So basically, I don't open chrome for a couple hours, I launch it and it has to reload back into memory, and then when I go to close Chrome, there is a pretty bad delay between when I press the home button and when the animation starts. This also happens when using websites through the Google search bar at the bottom of the launcher. I am using the pixel launcher, on 8.1 stock with root, no kernel or TWRP, no themes. This did also happen with 8.0, and because it is still bothering me, I figured I'd bring it up. Is anyone having this problem too?
