For some reason, after a body of text has been typed out, the keyboard starts lagging HORRENDOUSLY. It just gets progressively worse. Here's a video to show you guys what I mean.

I haven't tried LG's keyboard because it's ghastly. This happens on every SMS app, or, as you can see, on Tapatalk. I was originally writing this thread on my G4 but it got so bad that I couldn't stand it anymore and decided to type it up on my laptop.
After the update, the lag was not there. But after some use, it looks like it's back. I have tried restarting the phone and what not, factory reset, etc. to no avail.
Has anyone else been experiencing this?
Ditto here. Lags less then LG keyboard but still not ideal

People have reported less lag if the LG keyboard is disabled or frozen.
Mine has been fine, especially after the latest update to 10N on T-Mobile.

I have had my Arc since it first came out in the UK but have noticed on occasions of late that it seems to have developed a lag, especially on things like accessing the gallery & messaging. Has anyone else noted this?
Nope. However I do use a cache cleaner every few weeks.

Yup, after about 2 weeks mine started to lag every once in a while. I just assumed it was because of some faulty app. So I did a clean install, and 2 weeks later it was the same again. (didn't install too many apps this time)
Mine is still great.
try an app called fast reboot....I find it speeds things up
No lag at all here, 2 months in.
Had the Arc (UK) about 2 months and in the last two weeks things have really started to lag. Have had to resort to rebooting and cleaning the cache regularly but it only takes a day to start lagging again. Wondering whether there is a CPU/ memory hog there in my app suite or a widget but haven't been able to identify anything yet. Once the phone goes below 40-50MB free it is all over and I have to reboot.
This may sound weird but my phone lags during the day and it runs super fast at night lol

I have this lags, too. But I had not to reboot the system, yet...
Any more ideas?

After update on Android 2.3.3 i don't hve any lag. Before that I had lag but nothing to worry about. I think it was Android 2.3.2 that cousses lag.

Same here after about 1 to 2 days the phone memory goes to about 25MB and is practically not useable and need to reboot. I am on 2.3.3
I went through my apps & by trial & error ended up removing a particular app & that seems to have sped things up a bit. Also downloaded a history cleaner & used that & that has improved things a bit as well. But in certain areas it definitely still seems to lag. Have to wonder now if it is something to do with the Arc's hardware?
ok guys after using SeePU+++ i think i found the process that uses the most cpu power and lags down our Arc is "ndroid.process.acore"
not sure what it does but i believe it is the culprit for random slow downs and lag on our phone...
does anyone know what it does? can anyone confirm my findings?
P.s. I am on global generic 2.3.3 firmwre 145
This problem may be caused by a bug in the Google Contacts Sync , just as seen in this bug:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2377
In other devices like HTC Evo this problem persist

I don't have the Google Sync activated and i don't feel my Arc Laggy
This phone is incredibly laggy. Many FCs or lags when I open the messaging app or other apps... Very sad and frustrating.
One of the major causes of lag on the HTC hero was having too many text messages stored on the phone. Ever since then i tend to not let the numbers build up too much, and i havent noticed any lag problems on the arc (maybe it's a general android problem).

one of the main android apps, your keybord and other important funtions are here, so my advice : dont touch it or you end up reflashing ROM
Hi Morning Folks,
I've recently started experiencing some weird lag when typing on the keyboard whereby I will type something and it won't appear instantly, maybe a second after I start typing and then for every word afterwards. I've tried to check what apps I've installed recently that may have caused this and looked at apps that are currently running that may be causing the lag but can't seem to come up with any solutions.
Does anyone know what I could do to try and fix this? This started happening in the last few days.
EDIT: Installed Swiftkey and it doesn't seem to have this same issue but I prefer the Sense keyboard so would like to get this fixed. Really can't see what's causing it.
Never experienced keyboard lag on the M8

I know what you talking about it is very annoying with that laggy keyboard but when you disable the power saving mode the lag seems to be away. In my opinion it is related to the limited cpu clock and the governor. Probably it would fix the problem if you change the kernel or change the governor.
I used swiftkey for a while, but I've returned to stock quickly. It's super fast like everything on m8

I know I'm late, but if you're still having this issue, try disabling word prediction.

Sense 7 keyboard has lag... It is just crappy generally... The older sense 6 keyboard works a lot better without any lag or any other keyboard
Hey,
Currently have the lg g3 b855 32gb 10i, just was wondering if anyone else notice a delay when opening up a text and a slow response to the keyboard loading currently using swiftkey but did try lg keyboard same resault. Is it the actually LG G3 causing this lag or is there a fix i can use... all apps run instantly and do not have any lag with other apps just slow response time when opening up a text or browsing the web and the keyboard has a short delay to open.
Thanks
Same issue
I'm having the exact same issue. It's very frustrating and I can't find anyone talking about it. I just got my phone about a week ago and it started off great but now I'm having trouble as my phone cannot seem to keep up with me while texting. Even now I'm noticing that SwiftKey is typing just as quickly as my fingers can move, but when I try to send a text, it just lags so badly. I even tried the SwiftKey beta app to see if it improved, but nothing. Can someone please post a solution!!
Hi,
I was wondering if any of you have had any lag with Snapchat on the 5X. I have had problems with Snapchat from since I got the phone at launch, updated the app a few times and I have the current version. Half of the time it works smoothly, and half the time it is a mess, laggy and freezing when swiping between the camera/stories/etc. It's worst when I have FB Messenger chat heads on. It also makes the whole phone lag even when it's in recent apps but not open.
I have a 32GB version (I doubt this makes any difference), rooted with TWRP but no real modifications. Is this a marshmallow issue? I've never had this problem in the past on 5.1.1 and prior (Nexus 5, Oneplus One, Moto G, Xperia Z3C among others).
Thanks all.
I'm with you dude. The Nexus 4 had a camera hardware defect that would freeze the phone once every few pictures. I will be furious if SnapChat come up with a "GOOGLE'S FAULT NEXUS 5X HARDWARE PROBLEM" excuse again.
Exactly the same issue as me. I use snapchat almost every day and its a ridiculous mess. My sister has a Moto G 3rd Gen with 2GB of RAM and it is so smooth. So I don't understand why it hasn't been optimized for the 5X yet, no reason for all this lag! Several times its locked up my phone and won't exit to the home screen.

I still have my Xperia Z3 Compact and I have no issues with it. It's ridiculous. No other app gives me problems.
I thought I had some issues but I noticed the same thing in Stock and Chroma using ElementalX. I notice the IO usage in my system monitor hits nearly 100 MB/s for 3-4 seconds while the phone locks up.
Same. I am part of the beta and posted bug reports about lag and freezes on the 5X and 6P (idk if the 6P has the issue). I doubt it will do anything, but doesn't hurt to let out my frustration
I have the same issue. Hope this is something a Snapchat update can fix
Same problem with my 32GB version N5X, not only thirdparty apps, but also the Google camera app. I don't want to use the camera any more and I miss my Nexus5 with marshmallow which works so smoothly.

I'm in the same boat. Rebooting fixes it temporarily. It's a pain in the ass.
same problem with snapchat freezing and being incredibly slow while my 2013 n5 was always buttery smooth. also have other weird camera ****, like vivino capturing pictures upside down and ****. really really irritating and basically my only problem with the n5x
Just got the 9.19.1.0 Beta and it seems to be working better. I'll need to give it a couple hours to see if the usual lag kicks in.

Seemed like a lot of people are having the lag issue with N5X camera. Google should fix this problem, otherwise I want to get a refund.
Google camera lags not only within the app itself but also slows down the Android system.
I have already contacted google to get a replacement. Hopefully the new phone doesn't have camera issue.

Does that mean this is a hardware issue which cannot be fixed by new FW? Bad news for me, I'm in PRC and I bought my n5x through an unusual way, it's almost impossible to do RMA.[emoji24]

I hear you all. Same problem with Snapchat here.
Considering a uninstall.
Disabling access to the camera actually fixes it. But then again..

me too i have the same issue laggy and freezing since i bought the phone and when they download the update 6.0.1 the problem still the same I don't know why still and sometimes the camera app laggy I hope is anyone can help us with issue really I felt bored from the phone
So I am a power snapchat user and had this same problem and might have accidentally stumbled on a possible solution after having a login failure. I enabled the travel mode so it's not downloading constantly. I installed snapprefs and I can't explain why but it's flying now. No lag on window switching or opening the camera. I'm on 6.0.1 December rooted
I'm on 6.0.1 and Snapchat version 9.20.5 with Snapprefs installed.. the app is almost unusable.
It's definitely app-side issues because I too suffered from terrible lag and stuttering on Snapchat only for a long, long time but then a few updates seemed to fix it. Now it's back to being bad again with MM 6.0.1...... hopefully they will fix it soon
any issues with snapchat still?

Still issues.
In general my 5X seems to lag when the camera is in use
I was having these major snapchat issues while on stock and while on some of sonicron's tweaks to the ElementalX kernel, however snapchat has been purring along ever since I went to the PureNexus ROM (includes it's own kernel, not sure if there is anything special about it). Used snapchat all weekend during my partying and not one issue with no reboots required.
Dear Friends, I have an unique issue for which I was not able to find answers over the internet. Recently bought LG G4 H815. The phone functions extremely well but when I install Swiftkey it gets heated up in the upper half of the phone. I can feel the heat both in the front and back where the camera is present.
After a prolonged usage like 45 mts to 1 hour it gets terribly hot.
When the swiftkey is uninstalled it works perfectly find without any heat generated. Is someone else facing similar issues. Currently I am in lollipop 5.1 version. I updated to 6.0 but faced the same issue in fact it use to get so hot that I was not able to handle it and make calls. So I downgraded to 5.1 and now all fine except while using Swiftkey.
I am so used to Swiftkey that I can't live without it. Can someone give me a solution for this problem ? Did a factory reset but nothing helped.
Swiftkey communicates data with remote servers. Maybe you should repeat the test, but before starting to test Swiftkey for heat, place the phone in airplane mode.
I just wonder if your heat is from extended times of data communication using a weak signal.
