Choppy Scrolling in most Apps (no fix?) - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have choppy scrolling in the App Store and Facebook and other more complex Apps.
I installed the latest Racer_M kernel and EXKM
I installed and run the latest EXKM-Settings from RedHawk and Bluejay_RACER with that kernel
Clearly, the choppy scrolling stays.
What can be done? The phone scrolls worse than Android 4 phones years ago.
Thanks, fe

[Q] 4.3 = lagging browser

Hi!
I updated to the leaked 4.3 version yersterday and it is very good overall. But one thing i notice was that the stock web browser was lagging like crazy when scrolling and flipping the screen (especially when playing a video on youtube)
Is this just me having this problem?
Sorry mate its not just you. You will prob also experience your google account dissapearing and single/double vibrates when apps crash with out errors. Of course the rom is leaked so problems occur because of this.

Nexus 5X Lag

Using snapchat and even just the regular camera, I am experiencing a lot of lag when the camera is first loading up.
snapchat is really slow.
instagram is slow as well/
anyone else seeing the same problem?
The camera and instagram apps don't lag for me. But Snapchat definitely does -- it's pretty bad. But that is absolutely the only app that I have experience any kind of lag with.
Snapchat lags pretty bad and gsm battery stats. IG is not laggy at all for me
I'm also experiencing lag after launching regular camera app. It takes a few seconds for the app to settle down and be able to focus/take pictures.
I'm also experiencing lag if you take multiple HDR+ photos in a roll....
I hope Google could optimize the app more.
The Google Play Newsstand app gets very laggy for me if I view a few feeds in a row.
I get most of my lag in Chrome when viewing a page with lots of images. Sometimes the phone lags when I unlock it and tries to switch apps. Memory leak issue like Lollipop?
Try signing up for snapchat beta, when I first got my 5X the lag in snapchat was unbearable, each of the 3 snapchat updates since first using the 5X have greatly improved the usability of the app. Still lags on camera startup and while taking pictures, but the rest of the app has gotten a lot better of the past few days.
Make sure you are running the latest software build, MDB08I. I don't use Snapchat but it definitely helped smooth out the camera app

Snapchat is an incompatibility with marshmallow. I had it with my nexus 6 as well
I have not noticed egregious lags, but frame drops are aplenty. Google's animation team did a wonderful job to hide the most irritating aspects of animations, but anyone who is semi-sensitive to dropped frames can see frames dropping left and right.
Stock camera definitely lags more often than not for me. I do have Camera FV-5 so I might give that a try more and see if it's more reliable.

Snapchat lag is horrible, basically can't use it
I'll have to try out Snapchat Beta and see if it fixes it otherwise, this really blows.
If you use Casper instead of the official Snapchat app, you'll see significantly less lag. I still get some bad freezes even with SC uninstalled, though
I've noticed some lag here and there, but nothing worse than I was seeing on my Nexus 5 previously. I'd like to see if disabling the encryption has any positive impact on these kinds of behaviors. Presently I don't have a reliable way to make the N5X start lagging but if anyone else does, maybe we can begin working around it.

I didn't know about Casper, thanks!!!
I didn't noticed any lag on mine..
The Lag is real
This phone acts so slow compared to the rooted and flashed Nexus 5 I had, its laggy between switching apps, browsing, FB and even when simply going to the home screen from whatever I was doing. I've tried downgrading the animation scales in Dev Settings and still. Not sure ifi will need to return phone or root and flash.....
Been seeing quite snappy performance all around, quite similar to my old z2. The camera definitely has a little stutter as it is first opened though. I'd like to blame some of the stutters and weirdness I am currently experiencing to the state of apps on marshmallow. By weirdness, I mainly just get some bizarre behavior from the hangouts app.
Performance is quick and snappy just like my N5.
Mine is laggy like a dog in the stock camera app while loading/changing from portrait to landscape/taking the photo.
I've had years old androids run faster than that. I hope there is a fix soon.

Chrome scrolling performance very extremely poor on Mate 20 x,

I recently upgraded to the Mate 20 X and I'm finding the scrolling performance in Chrome browser to be a very poor stuttery mess.
Try this out,
load up the chrome browser, in the address/search bar type 'brownie recipe', now slowly scroll the page up and down, hitching, stuttering, not smooth at all.
Now do the same but use the google app, buttery smooth? doesn't make sense.
Now enable performance mode in the battery settings menu and try the same in chrome browser again, buttery smooth?
I swear when these phones were sent out for review they all had the performance mode on by default.

After using Chrome for years I switched to Samsung Browser Beta and everything is smooth. It even has a dark mode and all web pages you visit are dark when dark mode is enabled. It has add-on support as well and fingerprint login for whatever websites you want. I'll never use Chrome again.
Hello, I use Chrome Dev instead of Chrome and everything is ok.

Better you use Samsung Internet Browser + Adblock
For all it's worth I have no such issues with Firefox Beta, however it is not one of the fastest Android browsers to begin with, but it is extremely configurable. Great assortment of extensions (uBlock Origin, Cookie AutoDelete, etc), bookmark synching, DNS over https, and a ton of other options under about:config

Mine is buttery smooth when doing this, the only "lag" is loading more recipes at the bottom of page, but scrolling is like cutting warm butter.
no issues on mine, but I am in performance mode all the time...
I had poor performance with Chrome too. Problems was with the Chrome beta testing which selected my Phone to go 2G-network on newspaper site.

Why use the official youtbe app, when you can have YouTube Vanced?
I don't experience any lag with yt vanced
yep. i believe its the same issue this thread is talking about. I hate it so much and if its hardware related and/or not fixable, I will be extremely pissed to spend 1k$ USD and not even want to use the phone.
