4.2 Lag - Nexus 7 General

I have been having lag issues since upgrading to 4.2
I been lurking around the post looking for answers but nothing I've tried has worked so far. There is lag everywhere- from the lockscreen to opening an app to closing an app to pauses and freezing in browsers (i use 4 diff browsers with no real preference), and tonight I was frustrated enough with the slowing buffering in the YouTube app that I'm now posting this.
If I don't fix this soon I'm just going to sell it. I put up with lag on my Samsung Fascinate for 2 years and I thought those days were behind me. Ugly lockscreens I can live with- lag I CANNOT.
I tried rebooting after update. I even shut down and let it sit awhile an hour later.
I tried clearing the cache from the new option in Settings
I tried some app from the market that adds blank files and delete them (cant remember what its called right now) EDIT: Its called Forever Gone and its in the Google Play store.
I don't have time to read thru tons of postings to find the answers- so hopefully I can get consolidated answers in this post.
I've never rooted or ROM'd this device. Its been flawless since the day I bought it until the update. I am not looking for people to chime in saying theirs works great. I just want helping on getting this device back to buttery smooth please.
EDIT: Thanks to idevice12345 post, I found that my lag problem stemmed from Google Current's sync feature. Turning that off in Google Current's settings and rebooting has fixed 99% of my lag. Hopefully that helps others-- getting help around these forums is a nightmare. Self appointed knuckleheads trying to derail our information highway.

Holy hell NO ONE CARES!!!
STOP HITTING THE NEW THREAD BUTTON OVER YOU NOT LIKING 4.2!!!
ITS SO DAMN ANNOYING.
For god sakes I've seen like 5 of these threads pop up today.
There is this new thing, its called google. Use it.

Sorry if I sound a bit harsh but you obviously didn't look at the thousand other useless threads about this same damn thing.

I like 4.2 I just don't like the lag. I looked thru the threads for a couple days now. Just haven't dug deep as it takes alot of time. I can google too. Your the one whos damn annoying right now- I'm just looking for help, not complaining. Look at my post, it even says I need help. Thanks for the worthless post tho.
p.s. I clicked your link. I'm not trying to downgrade- I'm trying to fix the lag. Can you google that one for me? I'm too lazy.

Hey mate, this isn't a "Post your question and we'll spoon feed you answers" forum. Saying that you don't have time to look for answers won't cut it.
As for lag, try to do a clean install.

I been around XDA a long time for a few of my devices. I came here for help. I don't know why I have to preface that with a bunch of stipulations (I did a couple, I HAVE looked for answers and listed what I tried for 2 days now). I don't have hours and hours to dig for weeks thru tons of postings. Like I said, I LOOKED for 2 days now.
I am genuinely asking for HELP. I don't want to downgrade- I want real post about what to try. I'm sorry that it is offending people. Your frustratred with my post and I'm frustrated just asking for help.
You guys are so uptight. Just want to hear from people with similar experience and workarounds or whatever it takes. I'm contemplating a factory restore but I have everything so dialed in the way I like it that i'm saving that as a last resort.

Okay, since your pretty much begging at this point, try this, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kovit.p.forevergone&hl=en. If that doesn't help download stock 4.2 and backup your apps and re flash 4.2 and re install your apps one by one to see if one of them is causing the lag.

I saw that after my post and im at the rebooting part. But thanks. You really need to find a different hobby because you look like the troll to me. I posted this to the General forum and as far as I'm concerned its the appropriate place to look for help.
I am baffled that I am getting blasted for this. I re-read my first post again and besides sounding a little snotty because I wanted to get straight to the point (which I did), I don't see where anyone could think it was a hate on 4.2 thread.
Again, am asking for help. Thanks.

The only option I see is sync. Nothing about background apps. And so far it did it up some but it could of been the reboot too. Still testing.

Thanks. Yeah thats the program (Forever Gone) that I tried, that I mentioned in the first post. Just didn't know the name of it. I guess I could run it a 2nd time and see if that helps? Can't figure why a 2nd time would be nessesary tho- I'll try anything at this point.

I just hadn't tried the suggestion yet and I was testing from the other guys help. I do want help, but what I got was a couple of forum trolls who think they are Boss around here.

Soo... You buy things without doing an OUNCE of research or reading up beforehand? This has been mentioned and talked about a million times over the last 3 weeks. Seriously, go to Google and look up your questions before asking such obvious things.
wow you could have just passed the ? up instead you took time out of your day to be rude ...i did some checking i knew that it was going to have flash i must have just missed the part where it said it was not ready ..didnt your mom teach you if you have nothing nice to say to be quite .lol....thanks keitht for the nice answer !
**** if forums followed there moms rules there would be no forums. In a not so nice way he was just saying use forums as a last resort for problems. Its harder to work with people and help them when there are a million threads about how to put a widget on my home screen or how to turn this on. Most of use here love to help others. For 1) makes us fell smarter and 2) feeds our online egos. Some just forget what it was like when they first started getting into forums. But yes flash support will be coming as soon as they finish 10.2.

[Q] My tab is bricked.{lease help.

hye,im just flashing my tab yesterday with overcome rom.then i started with odin after it finished odin shows FAILED! then my phone turned off automatically leave the screen blanked.now i can't do anything to the phone even if want to enter the downloading mode.there is nothing i can do and just leave the screen blank.is there any help for me?i'm seriously pissed off.please help me.
sorry but 50 viewers and still no help?
Did you do a backup beforehand? If so, restore it. If not, i would get another Rom and try again.
Sent from my HTC Desire CDMA using XDA Premium App
no i didnt have any backup.what do u mean by getting another rom?im stuck with the blank screen and can't do nothing now.
Try shuttig it off, charging the battery, put in download mode (even if you only see a black screen some people have reported they can flash) and install your stock or another rom. If this doesn't work, you're screwed...
If you didn't check and see if you had locked bootloaders then this may have caused the fail in ODIN...

There is plenty of help if you look for it. People tend to get sick of repeating themselves so its best to read the topics that have already been created on this exact issue.
Using search function and searching topic titles for "bricked" will give you plenty of help.

Juice Defender

What everyone's setup? For the life of me, I can't get it to work as it's supposed to work. If I turn it on (the basic setting), it turns data off but never comes back on, not even if I disable it. It takes a full reboot to actually get data back. It's too bad, because when it's on my battery goes forever, but I can't do all of the things that this phone was made to do. Any suggestions for the customization, or any possible fix?
Btw I'm on the latest gv.

No offense to the guy, but I thought the author of that report was less than helpful in describing the problem; not to mention it doesn't sound like the same issue we're having here, because he can resolve it by entering airplane mode. Likewise, I didn't think any of the comments were that helpful either.
I didn't have anything to do today...well, that's not true, but I didn't want to do any of the things I had to do, so I took a bunch of time away from the things I needed (but didn't want) to do and wrote this up:
http://bit.ly/w42tou
It's on that same site, but it describes the problem in (painstaking?) detail. I also sent them six different logs that cover various stages of the problem. I even gave you guys a shout out at the end of it.
I'd appreciate it if you guys visited the link and voted for/commented on the post. Mostly because I think it'll help encourage the devs to actually do something, but also so I don't feel like a moron for writing something nobody reads. (But it really is way better than that other guy's.)
Voting is probably sufficient enough, but it can't hurt to throw a comment on there to help raise the profile of the post. Like someone mentioned previously, if you're using the beta version of JD, open it up and send a log file when it occurs again.
haha, although I imagine most of you have disabled it at this point, I know I have.
EDIT: The Dev that's working on this mentioned this on the crappy post, along with several other things that never got answered by the original author or any of the individuals commenting. Anyone out there "enterprising" enough to take this on?

As long as you have a stock recovery and not a custom one you can take an OTA. You will probably loose root though.

haha for real? here's a response formatted in the long run-on sentence structure that you like to use because I fear if I don't use it you won't get my point.
"How are you going to flame me but then go on to say that it's not cool to flame when you clearly don't understand what the point of pointing out this kind of lazy behavior is? So go troll somewhere else and quit trying to be some sort of pseudo mod by trying call out legitimate criticisms of other users because you don't understand that apologizing for doing something wrong while performing it doesn't make it right ESPECIALLY considering the facts the OP gave us about not turning his phone on for a week. Who would come on here and assume they are the first to get an update without thoroughly checking? and make a thread in the dev section so rashly? The OP would. So I called him out on it. So he won't be inclined to make the same mistake twice. I can only hope that this post will be as beneficial for you.
good day.

How could you not possibly see one of the thousands of 4.3 threads that have been created the past week? I usually try not to flame but... Damn, lazy people.

Atleast he is trying to contribute by uploading files.... Can't be mad at that even tho he's a little late to the party. It could have been much worse with a what's the best 4.3 ROM or a install question thread.

I so hate having to sift through all the bashing. Just move on if you don't like what you see. Good God.

I really hate to be that guy, but this really doesn't belong in the development section.
Well hot dang....
I am currently on trip and have not turned on my phone on for the benefit of my family. I was in the airport when I first turned it on to see what I missed. Since it came up when I turned it on, I came here first as I've been dying for an update and I was willing to bet that others were in the same boat. I did what I would normally do with updates and download them and upload them somewhere for safe keeping. Then came here and posted my screenshots and moved on. It wasn't until I got into the plane that I saw that its been about a week, that its been out, and that development goes on with or without me. Sure I didn't have to apologize in advance and sure I didn't have to put the disclaimer at the bottom that if what i posted up was old news then please delete. I would of been fine with the thread being deleted or moved in which case it was. I've been here for so long and have contributed to numerous threads and development to know that if something new comes out, jump on it and share the info with the everyone. It wasn't to flame on the threads, it wasn't to spam and clutter the dev section. The mere fact that this happen show immaturity.
A simple note saying please move thread to general discussion would of suffice, not bring hatred and ignorance into a community that is devoted to acquire knowledge and to share it.
While some of us don't have that pleasure to get updates first, I have been blessed with having on time or in Moto case, Moto feedback team which I have always participated in. Again plain and simple I tried to help by providing info and supply for devs out there to work on. Yes It would of been simple for me to thorough look thru the threads and see whats been going on. And I did that after posting and did see that I was not first. Thats fine. It wasn't laziness that brought this, it was something that jumped on in the hopes to help out. But take the hatred else where as if your going to take offence in someone trying to help then you dont belong here, plain and simple.

Done! Now we need to do some minor advertisement whenever someone asks a very general question, not exactly belonging to a ROM thread
Hey everybody, can anyone tell me what the heck is wrong with the xda forums lately? There are multiple things going wrong and some functions of the site dont work at all?
For example:
- Clicking on notifications in the top right corner doesnt open the received notifications, instead it opens this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/usercp.php
- Cant expand the names in a post to see who gave thanks, again opens a different page
- Options like attachments, smileys and all other options when writing a comment dont work (their not clickable)
Maybe there are more, but these are the ones i came across till now. Anyone having same behavior? or maybe it's just my laptop thats tripping... In any case its very much frustrating!

Hi my friend,
In my case, no such problems until today but I will check again on my laptop this evening.
What do you mean by lately exactly? In my case 1 or 2 hours ago, it was fine.

Everything Is Working Fine, Double Click On The Notifications Menu Will Show usercp.php Instead Of That Menu, The Fix Is To Click Just One Time, I Don't Know About The Others...
But You Can Try Between These Different Solutions :
Uninstall And Re-Install Your Current Browser.
Or Use The Old XDA Layout.
Or If It Always Failing, Try Using Google DNS.

About a months ago, I reported xda forum issues but never received a reply. If interested check here and here.
Normally, I don't use my GT-I9305 for visiting xda. However, due to your post I checked the xda functionalities by using the Gello browser that came with my ROM.
Everything is working as expected and normally except that the [view] button is missing to expand the thanks row to see who gave thanks.
For the still existing issues with xda on my laptop, please refer to the first link above.
