anyone else have really horrible performance here? Trying to scroll through posts results in frequent pauses and sometimes a lockup of several seconds.

As this is my first Windows Phone and I wasn't really sure what to expect when it came to fluidity, I was pleased with how smooth everything is. However I've begun noticing a decent (read: annoying) bit of lag when I open up the messaging app and begin typing. The letters take a second to appear and autocorrect is slow if it comes up at all. The lag only last maybe 3-5 seconds but annoying none the less. I've also had some rather bad experience with laggy apps, with Skype being the worst culprit. I read good things about the recent refresh, but it's pretty much unusable for me. I've also been having issues with losing LTE and having it drop down to "4G". A simple toggle of airplane mode fixes it, but it's gone from happening rarely to happening once or twice a day now. When I do have LTE though, I have 4-5 bars constantly.
Anywho, bit of a wall of text but I just wanted to see if anyone else is having similar issues and if it's worth going to AT&T and seeing if they'll replace the phone for me as I'm still within my 30 day return window.
EDIT- Just remembered 2 more issues. Had it reboot on my when adjusting the volume and there's a weird clicking noise that happens when I swipe from the first picture in the camera roll. The phone is on silent, and it only happens going from the first to second picture. Little odd but not a big deal.

The only problem i have seen is:
When i switch off my phone and turn it on sometimes it freezes and i have to turn it of an on 2 or 3 times in order to get it working. this has been happening recently i dono whthere it is to do with some apps or firmware issue.
sometimes the touch screen also give hiccups specially on facebook app.
No other problem. coming from samsung galaxy s 2, i only miss the ability to change my homescreen every week with a different launcher and layout. The apps that i miss are Tweetdeck, 100% working Pulse, Youtube and Facebook App.
My Lumia 900 playing Angry birds is so much faster and smoother compared to SGS2.
Overall i am happy with the looks and performance of my phone.
I get that messaging problem as well sometimes where the keyboard lags and the typing noise doesn't keep pace with my inputs.
Mildly annoying and it's not constant so no big deal for me.
Sometimes, multitasking stops working and I have to do a quick power-off.
Actually, all issues are resolved with a quick reboot as opposed to a reset with my Lumia 900 which is something I can't say about my HD7.
I agree with above. The only lag I get is the occasional facebook load time lag. Some apps take longer to load than others, it's perfectly reasonable. As for overall lag, I had one experience yesterday where everything just slowed to a standstill. It was the first time I had to restart the phone, but after that, I've seen no problems. I can imagine it was a corrupt app as I had been downloading quite a bit of them that day. Coming from android for 2 years, the experience here is much much smoother. My advice, as i learned from the past 2 years, is to retrace your steps and find out when exactly it started to lag. When you find the beginning see if you downloaded any poorly rated or laggy third party app, or if you changed a seeting on your phone. If it continues to lag for no reason, you might just have a bad device. Best of luck.

I just upgraded from a Samsung Focus. My very first reaction was that the screen was slightly less responsive than the Focus, which was buttery smooth and instantaneous. It felt slightly, but noticeably less responsive. After using it for a day, I don't notice it anymore. I am sure it is there, but my memory of the Focus is not as near. As far as true lag goes, I have not experienced any after 2 weeks use, and no reboots or freezes.

I'm glad you are enjoying it but I came from the original focus myself and had the exact opposite reaction. That it was much faster and smoother than my old focus... I still have it and my kids play the old games on it so I can compare regularly and still feel the same.
Does anybody have lag when they are pinching and zooming on heavy desktops websites? i am getting a lot of lag here where my htc titan did not get that lag.
The only issue I seem to be having is when playing any kind of music or watching videos. If I touch any of the capacitive buttons, it's as if I long press them. Not a huge deal since I usually only touch the back arrow anyway, but that's all I get.
i was wondering if anyone else had this problem. My lumia has consistently not displayed maps in nokia maps or the maps app. It will show my location on a blank black or patterned screen (depending on the app). It's not a wifi or data issue because it's happened on both. It's happened five times in 3 days. Each time i've had to shut the phone off and restart it and it works again. Is this just a problem with mine? Thanks.e

it is a problem with your device, so do you have web browser lag or is that problem only with my device.
Hey folks, just wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this problem and if a fix has been found or if it's an HTC problem with the phone design. This is happening to me frequently and it doesn't matter which ROM I am running, it happens on all of them. Whenever I'm on a call, the person on the other line will complain they cannot hear me (I'll hear them just fine). This will last for anywhere from 2-3 seconds to 15-20 seconds and may happen several times on a call.
Is anyone else having this issue? I've checked the web and there seems to be several discussions and compalints on several HTC forums about this problem but no fix so far, I checked a few pages on this thread and didn't see anything mentioned here so I was wondering if anyone else is affected.
Like i said, I have tried 4-5 different ROMs to see if any gave different results but no luck. So I'm leaning towards it being a hardware or design issue. I really like this phone but if this can't be resolved I guess it's back to Sammy for an S5.
Any input would be great, thanks.
Holy crap is everyone here able to transmit clearly on every call???
This happens quite a lot to me while browsing the Web on phone. While scrolling down it looks like Chrome has locked up but eventually it starts scrolling again.
Anyone else had this issue and addressed it?

I've noticed on some sites that are meant to load the next part of a webpage before you get to it, this happens and may be what is happening here. Things like ad-blockers and data-saving features in other browsers can help, but by the nature of these sites, it is inevitable no matter what device you are using.
I wanted to chime in and say that I have noticed my chrome locks up too. Came across this article: http://drippler.com/drip/how-make-chrome-faster-android
I am trying some of the tips now. Thought I would share it.
Try to uninstall it and try taking odd the battery and reinstall it once the phone comes back on. I do that to a lot of apps that lag and seems to be working.
I had this issue as well, but it only seemed to last for a couple of days last week. I am on Beta if that matters. I cleared the cache, because thats the smart thing to do whenever anything seems wonky. It also is the smart thing to do anytime. Not sure if it helped or not, but I haven't had the issue since.
I used to get an issue with blank screens when loading pages after the cache started hitting 500mb or so. Clearing the cache fixed that, but that also hasn't happened in a long time. Maybe these things are related. I just wrote it off as the pain of using beta.
Anyone else having an issue with scrolling? Sometimes scrolling is smooth as butter, but occasionally it stutters or doesn't fling as fast as it should. I've even had it scrolling in an app in the opposite direction that I swiped, or seemingly not register a touch. Rarer, but has happened a few times, I feel like there was a phantom touch on the screen. Like a part of an app opened or closed as if I touched the screen and I had not. I'm really hoping I don't have to go through an exchange process.

I noticed this, especially when I'm scrolling and images are being loaded. When scrolling threads with the XDA app it stutters when avatars are being loaded.

Someone else posted a similar question:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/help/weird-scrolling-touch-sensitivity-t3710576
Lag
I have lag so far on Bluetooth streaming in car...really freaking annoying...and also playing games. I love this phone but they need to fix this asap (8gb ram 128gb storage)
This seems to happen when apps are loading things - Facebook, heavy web pages, etc. Try scrolling in your contacts app - I bet it will be smooth.
I have experienced the "phantom touch" by way of apps just closing out of nowhere like I pressed the home button when in fact I hadnt pressed anything at all. It happens most with Chrome but I have had it happen with others. The first few days I couldn't believe how smooth the phone was (most likely because it is quite the upgrade from any phone I've owned since the S5) but recently I notice lots of little hiccups and stutters.
The main thing I notice is it seems like there is a random dead spot in the top left corner where touches do not register. Examples of this are the menu in Magisk and the X to close window in SoundCloud. Sometimes it registers, sometimes it doesn't and takes multiple tries before it will. Its a pretty big area for touches to not register and it happens multiple times a day.

Sorry to bump an older thread, but do you have these touch issues constantly, or only in certain situations? A couple of weeks ago I noticed my touch screen gets some issues when the phone is charging, and goes completely crazy when my phone is charging and I ground myself electrically. Touches are not registered, trying to scroll is interpreted as a tap, scrolling is all over the place because touch recognition isn't smooth and long taps are hard to do.
But I also have slow scrolling speed in Facebook and Facebook messenger when not charging. Other apps scroll just fine.
hi.. i just have my 5t for 2 weeks.
and this past few days i notice the button action delay.
example i try to make a call i pushed call button like 3 times. but no action.
then after few seconds it make the call. then i cancel. then it make call again. its like delay. i pressed 3 times it will call 3 times consecutively.
and also i pressed apps on home canot open. i try to open from inside menu it open.
is there any way to fix this? thx
sorry to bump old thread again.
It seems to be noticed mostly with keyboard. And never lasts more than a second or 2 at most and then starts working again. It's such a short pause it's hard to notice unless you are really interacting with the device a lot for awhile like typing a really long message or doing a lot of scrolling. Could easily never be noticed since the pauses are rare and only a second or maybe two and then it's back to normal. I suspect a real update that isn't one of these patches with maybe some kernel optimizations and CPU optimizations will fix it as it seems to be related to something with the CPU or GPU tuning maybe even.
Anyhow if anyone else is noticing such a thing please reply and confirm I'm not alone....it's not biggie, but if I am doing a lot of texting it does become more apparent and annoying...rarely notice it just scrolling on a web page as I read as I probably miss most of the pauses as they happen easier than when doing a lot of typing...basically disrupts flow less then.
I should add the keyboard pauses are pretty much identical whether I use Gboard or swiftkey. Pretty sure any will do it as I get exact same pausing when scrolling around web pages.
I have to add that this gets more annoying the more I encounter it. I suppose it's about once per 500-1000 characters or so...but pretty random so maybe a lot more or less. Just not rare enough to no annoy a few times a day if you are sending lots of messages!
Guess I am the only one noticing this? I hadn't started fresh from the get go....I did bring over all the things from a Mate 9...settings and apps and data and all...but doesn't seem related to any app or anything in particular. Just minutia I think I have noticed in the custom ROM realm that can happen if you get a kernel that isn't optimized well. Somehow guessing it will be gone next update...but L29 first real major optimization update seems to be slow to come. Any word on official Euro launches anywhere? I could see a majore L29 update push setup for something like that when it happens.
Count me in. Typing with swiftkey is better but still got typing issue here and there
Swiftkey is doing same things and so does scrolling...jist more rare with scrolling seems most common in the Google messenger app. I may resest after update...but if my case is unique I figure it's just related to me always restoring messages and such in some apps even if I start fresh. No reason that shouldn't work though. Had always worked on Mate 9.

I don't. Only reason some of that restored this time around was due to the Huawei device migration regime. To me that should work if it's on offer...even if you skip at generation like I did from 9 to 20. It went off without a hitch with only annoyance being it rewrote the pictures and other documents to the 20 X with a new last modified date of when the copy was happen rather than like when picture was taken or last modified. It's still in metadata for library type browsers...but I can't stand the Apple style library browsing regime for some types of files and documents.
Anyhow there is no reason the google messages app should have keyboard interrupting like I am seeing. I have seen chrome stall it's scrolling in similar short pause sort of way also though and it has started fresh. So have to assume it's a combo of things that are partially some lack of optimization in this latest L29 build. Really noticing as I write this it's not happening here...so it's also what app you are typing in specific even. May try the stock messenger and reset messages as I do andaybe return later and see if that helps.
I mostly got this issue with Facebook Messenger, sometime in forum post
