I updated my GN to 4.04 a few days ago(stock rom), but after the update I frequently experience lag when I swipe to unlock the phone. This issue does not happen every time, but definitely happen very often to me. Kind of annoying.
I tried to reset the phone, change the wallpaper from Live to static, also reflash it as well. But the issue exists anyway.
Is this a typical problem?
It happens to me also on stock 4.04.
I notice a little lag when using the pin lock screen as well, but not all the time.

Me too, I find that if i turn off 3g, the lag would be less. But I am not sure.
Try disabling auto brightness?
I notice it too. I think it has something to do with the screen gradually working it way up to full brightness now instead of just coming on at full brightness like it used to in 4.0.2.
I have the lag as well. I tried wiping everything but it's still there. Very annoying.
Lag for me too using the pattern unlock. I can finish drawing my pattern before the green lines even start connecting the dots. It still unlocks, but it's not smooth like it used to be.
No lag with normal unlock. With pattern I noticed a small lag (not picking up the first "circle" I hit) but it wasn't always there.

I find that this issue happens if I change the light circumstance from dark to light, but if I am in the room and the light circumstance is constant, this issue will not happen.

I also have experienced the lag. As some of you say it looks like it happens when the auto brightness kicks in during the unlock gesture.
I've opened an issue on the android forum if you want to star it and give it more evidence.

I have left my message there, this issue really bothers me.
No lag here. Not on 4.0.4, not on any version before. But then again, I don't use auto brightness since it's just too dark for my liking. Also the screen doesn't 'dim' when switching on when you set the brightness manually.
It's a bug for shure just saying if you want a workaround...
Lag
Experiencing allot of lag at unlock screen.

Lag is due to auto brightness. Turn that off and lag should be gone.
For those of us having issues with lockscreen lag:
From what I can tell, it has to do with "smart flex" that is in the newer kernals. Between that and the custom governors included in most roms, it is causing 4.0.4 to lag until the processor ramps up.
I was seeing lag in stock cyanogen kernel, franco's latest nightly, and the latest nightly lean kernel
The fix:
I disabled smarflex all together, and I have seen zero stutter since. (I am currently using franco, and his app allows you to do this pretty easily from one of the options)
Its too early to tell because it has only been a few hours, but I haven't noticed a hit on the battery.
Hope this helps...
Cheers
I have the same problem as well. How does one disable the smartflex?

Hey guys, on my nexus when im typing anything I turn it to landscape mode for the bigger keyboard and sometimes it takes ages for the screen to follow - sometimes it doesn't do it at all. Anyone else have this prob?
It is slow on purpose.

So that if you are in bed and turn sideways it doesn't just keep switching, and other similar situations.
No guys, I mean REALLY slow, as in 5-10 seconds. Sometimes I have to keep movin it around untill it turns. Today however its really playing up and not turning at all.. haha

I find that actually it's the exact opposite.
When I want it to rotate, I need to wait ages (sometimes tapping the screen while waiting makes it faster).
When I lie in bed, it very often rotates when I don't want it to, and then I wait ages for it to switch back to the previous mode.
That pretty much forces me to disable automatic rotation every time I am in the bed. Whatever they tried to achieve with this, either they failed completely or I am somehow mysteriously missing the point..

Mine has been staying, and being used to the HTC Desire spinning instantly it was a bit strange at first. As regards to the tapping, there are some modes where tapping is what rotates it and it wont until you do.

I mean in applications like the stock Browser. I'm not 100% sure, but 99% that it rotates faster if I tap the screen as compared to just waiting.

it's not slow
it's the smooth transition animation (like windows IE)
you will need some 3rd party tweak to disable it

Has anyone noticed their GN turn on by itself and turn off? I've notice this happening a few times a day and each time I think it's shutting itself off but its not. Nothing is running or the table wasn't nudged in any way. I can only catch a glimpes of the screen turning off before I notice it. There's also nothing moving or any light to reflect off the screen to make me think its a reflection...
Just wondering if anyone else notice this... I hope it's not all in my head.
Could be an app doing this, are you using: Delayed Lock, Unlock with WiFi, any lockscreen replacement app?
never thought about the delayed lock... That seems likes the easiest answer to this.
Thanks!
Yup, if you are using DelayedLock that is most definitely the problem, and one of the reasons I abandoned the app. That and it doesn't play nice with Juice Defender.

Does anyone else's lock screen lag really bad sometimes?
Sometimes it will work fine but sometimes it could lag horribly.
I can slide to unlock and then it will actually slide a second or two later, and the animation when it brings up the home screen is really choppy.
I keep thinking of doing a factory reset to see if it solves it but o don't want to lose everything if it doesn't work.

Cause when you lock ur screen in full light condition and unlock when in dark light condition (and vice versa), the lag you describe happens.

Just updated my 4.0.4 Yakju to 4.1.1 via the OTA, and I've already noticed something that I can attribute to what they said during Google I/O -- "the screen will now try to guess where you're going to touch next." Now, I'm not sure if that specifically is what's causing it (or if I just horribly misquoted from my very fail memory), but here's the problem:
I used to be able to scroll repeatedly and quickly with my thumb through a list up or down in quick succession (that is, flicking the screen up or down about two times every 1 or 1.5 seconds). Now when I do this, it will stop or slow down the scrolling to a CRAWL. I have to flick, and wait til it slows down or nearly stops, before flicking again. It doesn't always happen, but it happens probably 8/10 times. Inexplicably, it happens more often when trying to quickly scroll up, than down. Actually, it almost never happens when trying to scroll down, and it's not that I'm not making contact with the screen when going up, or touching it differently. I feel like it's just predicting where my thumb is going to be and stops the scrolling when I touch it again. It's very annoying! Aside from this, Jelly Bean is awesome!
So, is anyone else experiencing this? Am I crazy? Do I just need to get used to flicking, waiting, and flicking? Do dogs dream in color?
Also, not sure if this is posted in the right place or not; my apologies if it happens to be the latter.
Yes I do experience this but I got used to it since 4.1
Sent from my Jelly Beaned GNexus
I've been experiencing the same thing. I find that if you lock and then unlock your phone, the scrolling becomes smooth again.
I noticed something was wrong with scrolling. Hopefully this can be fixed.

I haven't noticed this at all. Scrolling is awesome in fact. I'll be glad to take a video of 4.1.1 of me scrolling through over 1000 songs, hundreds of contacts and easily flicking through, buttery smooth...

Weird that two of you haven't experienced this, but a few of us have. Wondering what variation you're running? Takju/Yakju/_______? GSM or CDMA (has it been released for CDMA phones yet)?
Maybe it's something specific to a certain build, or maybe it just exacerbates faulty hardware that wasn't noticeable before? Hmm..
I dont experience this at all. Maybe you are slightly touching the screen while pulling your thumb up to re-swipe down, thus slowing down the scroll? That has happened to me a few times, but that is normal behavior. When i try to scroll as fast as I can, like 3 fast swipes a second, there are no slowdowns at all.
Takju GSM here BTW running 4.1.1 deodexed.

And nah, I made sure I double-checked myself for stupidity before posting, and it wasn't me! Aside from that, even if I was doing something wrong, it's not like I suddenly changed a habitual behavior between 4.0.4 and 4.1.1, there's something definitely going on differently. Especially since I was flick scrolling through twitter out of boredom prior to updating
I have this happening when using ondemand governor on 4.1.1. Interactive governor is smooth.
Probably it is related to specific apps?
I tried to scroll many times as fast as I can on the stock browser while browsing Engadget, and everything smooth. No wait no touch predictions.
But, for example, our beloved XDA app is now terrible. Stuttering, jerkey, janky and the keyboard input using SwiftKey is laggy.
I compared the keyboard input versus Facebook or Google+, I can feel clearly the XDA app is laggy.

It happens the most prominently for me when going to Settings > Apps > All and scrolling to the bottom, then attempting to flick quickly back to the top. For some reason, the behavior is *mostly* absent using Twitter, though it still exists. Weird that it happens more in some places than others, and that one of them is part of the Android UI (rather than an app).
That is the same bug we're talking here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576739
I've it since 4.0.4 (where multitouch bug disappeared and appeared this sensibvity touch bug)
I notice it a lot when scrolling pages in web browser.
Just lock and unlock GNexus to fix it.
But after some time, it appears again...

Are you talking about the smearing issue when the phone is dim all the way and you have white text on black background. Text turns hazy purple when u scroll. If so this is a known issue that's been reported here already.

I've noticed flickering on super white backgrounds. It's hard to see and it's got to be the right lighting and high brightness. IMO if you need to go through a process to see a slight flicker, blobs, etc., it's not really a concern. I'm assuming it's software related.. Same with the text blur.
