I have been experiencing some pretty annoying stuttering on my verizon galaxy nexus . I know, this is a development forum, but this is something I can not figure out. My galaxy Nexus has been lagging, or more lime stuttering. This is not the butter that I experience on my nexus 7. Is there anything I should try, or look out for? I have restored , installed different launchers, forced GPU rendering, but nothing seems to help. I do not think it is hardware, because my benchmarks are fine. What would you recommend me try?? I really didn't want to mess with my phone, but once I get home, if this doesn't work, I might just flash 4.2. Thanks

I flashed to Android 4.2 few days back and to be honest the experience is perfect. No lag or stutterrs(except slight delay when we click lock and screen actually locks)
Cool. Did you have any lag on 4.1 stutter?

Is your storage almost full. If your close to full that definitely can cause stuttering. Deleted any extra nandroid backups you may have.

It is confusing why I have lag. I have it on my 4.2 nexus 7 and my galaxy nexus . I will eventually have to flash custom roms on this despite my not wanting to flash custom Roms on this. Wanted to keep it stock. Any other ideas?
Sent from my Verizon galaxy nexus
I've had a lot of lag on 4.1 and haven't figured out what's causing it. My only solution was to OC it to the max and keep it at a high frequency while the screen is on.
Just kind of good I am not the only one. I will probably flash to 4.2. Does anybody ha e any suggestions for the two of us? Ty

You on stock? Because I experienced no lag whatsoever when I had 4.1. I would recommend flashing 4.2 but that's your choice

I think it has to be one of the preinstalled apps, that may be hogging the phones for those who use it
Its only a stupid suposition, but who knows? It might be the answer to the lag difference between devices

I'll look around. Google currents lagged my nexus 7 so it is possible
I had two maps running in the background, and Verizon mobile. Closed those, and the phone seems a little bit better, but I will test more .the weird thing is I do not use those, but they arr launched by the application
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I recently just cleaned up My device's memory and on my dad's Droid Incredible(he really needs a DNA) and mine and all lags just disappeared.
Cuz over time my phone was getting more and more bloated with useless files and finally I couldn't handle the lag and only saved my downloads and titanium folder and just wiped out everything.
Then afterwards flashed PA 2.53 and I just put those two files on and installed apps that were necessary. Phone was lightning again and no more FC.
Same with my dad when I flashed Pons CM10

Would be a hard sell to a dev.
Essentially you would be asking "Can you waste your time porting an older OS to my phone that not many people will use, will provide no real benefits, and will require back porting drivers?"
Now if it did come out it would be cool (choices are nice) but I four it will come out.

The dev would also have to create some software buttons, as they're not present in gingerbread.
Would be cool though. Some people may prefer pre-ICS.

Buy a Nexus S. This is a stupid idea, which has been discussed before when the GNex came out.
Forget Gingerbread. It's all about Cupcake!
i sorta agree. cause right now, the miui 2.3.7 on my nexus s simply smokes miui v4 on the gnex

I sometimes wonder if maybe ics is what slows down this amazing phone.
I also wonder (cause many people compare the gnex with the s2 and say s2 is faster) I know the processors are a difference but not that huge of a difference so I wonder if gingerbread is what's keeping the s2 faster for or noticeably faster then the gnex with pics I wonder if ics will slow down the s2 as well. Idk just thoughts just fun.

ICS slowing down the GN? what?
Gingerbread isn't even optimized for multi-core phones.
gnexus has to run faster with ics.
I believe ics is made for the galaxy nexus. to this specific device. therefore ics should definitely be faster.
putting gingerbread on this would be hard cause we only have on-screen buttons.
and you don't see people putting 2.2(froyo) or 2.1 or even below 1.6 on
devices like gsII. razr. rezound.
why put gingerbread on gnex? it would just be cool but not useful in anyway

Looks great, but not as impressive when it comes to usability. Looks and feels like a clunky miui launcher clone with a bit of polish. And for £10+ its poor value IMO. Really disappointed TBH.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I agree - the transitions, etc are amazing, but the resolution seems blurry, the use of screen space is poor, and usability is lacking (twice the clicks to do anything).
Still, gotta admire their work, and I'll be keeping an eye on the updates.
Pricing seems like a bad idea, also. I'm sure that if they dropped it to $5 they would see way more sales...
Ad. 10chars...
I have to disagree on blurry icons etc. Transitions are cool. I don't have any lag or stutter running OC on lean kernel. I just downloaded it and will play with it some more throughout the day.

So I had the Verizon Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean and today I sold my nexus and bought the SIII. I never realized how much software matters over hardware! Sure the SIII has more ram and a slightly better camera but I will tell you while I miss my nexus!!!!!
1. Stock OS - I hate the fact why on my SIII I cant organize my apps into other app folders. I feel like I am running android 2.4 and not 4.04!
2. Jelly Bean- I love project butter (even though the Siii is still smooth) and I way prefer googles voice assistant alot more
3. Build- I think I am one of the few that prefer the the size and material of the nexus. Even though the nexus is close in size, I still feel the
S3 is just too big. Not to mention I prefer the rubberized feel on the nexus.
4. On screen menu keys. Just have not got used to the S3 and dont know if I ever will.
5. Ability to swap roms. Being that verizon has a locked bootloader on the S3 and there are no working Jelly bean roms, I feel by the time
Verizon upgrades to Jelly Bean I will be counting down the days till the Galaxy Nexus 4 comes out!!!!
*****Thinking about selling my S3, but dont want to waste an upgrade on a new phone so just may give it to family and buy my nexus back***
Bottom line.... I miss my nexus
That's why I did not buy it

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
even though you can slap a cyanogen onto a non-nexus device, it will took longer than on nexus. On Nexus, Google update new version, the longest you have to wait is one week before a build is surfacing. But nowadays our dev are super so it only took few hours lolz, and with pretty much everything working most importantly.
With non-nexus, NO~~ it took ages to wait for this driver, that source code wtf wtf bla bla bla~~ I've been there with SGS2 and One X, regretted my choice. and you cant enjoy the true feeling of AOSP too. you'll notice you need TW or Sense for a better hardware experience like the camera, etc etc.
oh as asdfasd2 said, yes i agree. Samsung does sucks with their source codes. CM was long enough on SGS2 and still, after they release the codes, devs are having headaches fixing what were supposed to be fixed. Luckily Nexus S and Gnexus are handled by Google, not them.
i must confess i was feeling a little tempted myself but ever since the nexus 7 release i cant take the damn table off my mind just waiting a couple of weeks to see if a nexus 10 is gonna be release but i cant wait a lo more

thought the whole point of project butter was a smooth, non choppy nexus here... that's not the case at all on every jb rom I've run. currently on cm10 now and it's just ridiculous how the launcher is choppy even using an aftermarket launcher like nova. it gets caught up switching screens, switching between apps etc. I never had ics on my nexus, but I'm wondering if I should flash an ics rom for a better experience? or just go to the stock ota that came out for verizon lately?
**EDIT**
pretty much just came to the conclusion that running the AOSP roms were laggy for me. flashed stock OTA JB rom, and it's MUCH quicker with less stutter, even with every home screen filled. woo!

Try a bugless ROM, there are plenty of other stock JB ROMs you can flash, CM10, AKOP and Paranoid ROMs are still not 100% yet.
Cm10 is not stable!
Nexus is extremely smooth on jellybean...
Maybe you should try the stock rom? or maybe an aosp based? With just a bit of ectra features but really running a stock jellybean undernesth it?

Not quite sure what the issue is here... I've run three different ROMs on my Nexus and all have performed very well without any lag:
Bixie's modified Stock
AndroidME w/ Trinity
AOKP w/Franco
Peoples idea of a no lag experience varies. The iPhone has always given a smooth UI that no one besides windows has able to mimic. Androids project butter filled in most of the gaps and made the experience a LOT better but its not 100% lag free - it is tolerable by those of us who came from the pre-JB days.
The stock ROM won't give you a smoother UI but only a more stable bug free experience.
I would suggest you learn about the device in hand and understand that its a year old and compared to an S3 it gets its socks blown off in terms of performance graphically.

Currently running Jelly Belly 8.4 with Faux kernel. Running super smooth with virtually no lag.
On a side note, I see you seem to be quite negative when it comes to the Galaxy Nexus. First, you complained about the camera, now that it lags a lot with JB. Maybe you need a different phone?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Stock has only lagged on me with live wallpapers, when switching screens. Your issue with optional launchers is a common topic, because they're not yet fully optimized for jb. And your s3 is smoother because by comparison, it has a monster gpu. Finally, if you check out other forums, you'll also find common topic that project butters full effect is very difficult to implement in custom roms.
I777 gets it done, gnex just for fun

The camera and the data speeds are the only thing I like about my s3

Using the SGS 3 in store I was surprised at how slow it is.

To be fair, devices in stores for demonstration are laggy for the most part. The Galaxy Nexus as well, it's not a proper way of "demoing" the phone.
It depends on what model you actually have. If its the quad s3(international i9300) you made a worst decision of your life and to sum it all up Almost all the famous devs are there.

Happy with my GNexus. Played with an S3 and didn't like the feel, or the physical buttons. Plus you can't beat stock ROM even if there are ways to get AOSP on the S3 it's not the same.

Traded my S3 today after a week with it and went back to my gnex. I find its actually a lot smoother and quicker than the S3, have you guys who have used both noticed the same thing?

Both of my roommates have SGS3s - one is stock TouchWiz and the other is on CM10 and I'm very unimpressed. I won't be trading in my gnex any time soon.

This. Had the choice to get a nexus or s3 coming from an s2 wanted something different. Very happy!

Same experience here. Thoroughly tested the S3 already and the GNex definitely feels smoother and gives an overall beter user experience.
And as said before not everyone who buys an android smartphone can be assed rooting their phone, flashing roms, backupping everytime. It's very nice that it's possible to do with android but it should not be an obligation whilst buying a smartphone.. It should work perfect out of the box, and that's exactly what the GNex does and any other android phone manufacturer fails to do.
