my question is sort of two part: when I return to the launcher (Trebuchet) from an app, almost always I return to a screen with no icons and just the wallpaper. After a second or two, the icons reload and everything appears normal for that screen. Is this because I have too many apps running and Trebuchet is running out of ram?
second part to the question is that if an app is running, and it pretty much doesn't matter what app I'm running, and the screen times out and goes dark, almost always the app that was running stops running and I'm returned to the desktop when I push the wake button. This is a fairly recent issue - anyone have any ideas?
I'm running CM10.1.3-RC2-toro.

When my phone first boots up LP is non responsive until after a couple minutes, quickest work around is to go to task manager force close LP then it loads up fine. I'm on SRF 1.1.1 though it was happening on 1.1.0 as well. I do recall this not being an issue initially when i first went to SRF 1.1.0 (don't think its a rom issue). Wondering if there's a resolution out there, not the biggest problem but can get annoying. Also notice that my beautiful widget clock skin doesn't load until after LP becomes responsive (the widget loads fine but its the default skin at first).
i have same issue, just let the phone sit there for about a minute after it boots up. also try re-installing launcher pro. the new version of beautiful widgets takes a while to load the skin sometimes.
I have both of these (BW and Laun Pro) and it lags for me also.. I have noticed if I just keep pushing the home button.. it kind of kicks it in the butt and loads quicker.. or i'm very impatient.. leaning to the latter..
I've read descriptions and watched videos of the flickering issues, and haven't come across what I'm seeing on my phone. It's flickering but not so much of the screen as the elements being displayed, and only in certain situations.
I will take a screenshot next time, but I've found an easy fix for now, in case anyone else is experiencing this issue.
On the home screen while scrolling, icons and widgets will glitch. Either the background will flicker and disappear, or the foreground image or the whole damn thing disappears and reappears. The background also flickers. Will happen in app drawer too. It's happened in multiple launchers.
I've also noticed this happening in the camera app when scrolling through the effects dropdown.
My fix: power down, pull battery.
So far so good. I'm not sure what causes the problem, but I did install new apps right before the glitch began. Uninstalling these apps does not help. Disabling HW overlays and other GPU options doesn't help.
Anyone ever have anything similar?

reflash your rom. If problem persists, flash stock rom. If problem still persists, clear all traces of root and send it in for repair.

I found the real culprit causing this issue:
Display > Auto adjust screen tone
Once this was turned off this problem completely disappeared.
I am un-rooted and have keep my N7 2 stock since I have had it. A few weeks ago I decided to try the free version of the Nova launcher. I decided to stay with the stock one after several days of trying it out, and thus uninstalled Nova from the settings app list.
Now on occasion the stock launcher freezes after swiping home screens back and forth...or exiting an app....or like things. Usually it just freezes and after 10 seconds or so it unfreezes. Sometimes I get a warning that the launcher stopped responding with the "quit/wait/cancel" popup.
So it seems installing and then a few days later uninstalling the Nova launcher has left some fragments or affected the stock launcher process.
Is there some sort of app/system clean up I can do without doing the system reset? I do not want to loose app settings.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I have the freezing issue even when I DID NOT install Nova.
It's a known problem this freezing thing.
I've noticed a number of issues since I upgraded to Lollipop yesterday.
1. Memory usage seems to increase significantly, pre Lollipop I would have around 800 meg free after a restart, since upgrading to Lollipop that's now dropped to around 400 meg free.
2. Clock issues, the clock in the top right hand corner of the screen can freeze on lock and when unlocked is the same time prior to the lock and just sticks at that time until I enter the clock setting and tick and untick the 12\24 hour setting, I also get this issue with the clock on the notification drop down.
3. Random app crashes, with black screen and then the app closes no prompts or anything, this has happened with games and also Chrome and Mail, This only started happening since the update.
4. Language and Input settings menu crashes every time it opens.
Anyone else have these or similar issues and anyone have any ways of rectifying the issues?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jon

Just did a fresh reboot of my N7 on 5.0.1 (non LTE / 3g model) - 5.0.1 install was done via wireless

Has been a stable and happy tablet
I usually have about a gig free. I still go by the "unused ram is wasted ram." I wish it used more. If it's needed android will free it up. Unless it's a leak.
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?
