Head over to play store and update Google Search. Seems to have solved the lag issue on my unit at least.
The update has nothing to do with lag

That is fair enough, I haven't looked at the release notes at all, all I know is, the 3 second delay between typing into the search and actually seeing the words appear seems to be no more. is it not possible that they included a bug fix that they have not mentioned in the official release?
I'll report back if it suddenly starts again and I give you permission (nay implore you) to point and laugh at me.
Same here
Lag is gone after the update

I notice the voice search bug is gone since the update. Any voice input use to FC till the update.

My delay is gone too. Maybe it didn't have anything to do with it, but it's fixed anyways.
Mine seems more responsive.
Interestingly, upon first voice search after updating, mine FC'd haha.
Definitely more snappy. In fact my whole device is now snappy because previously I was unable even navigate through my Nexus. I wonder if there is any relation.

So why does the what's new section in the play store state "Google Search is getting faster", then?

Yeah all search functions seem pretty slick. GNow searches pretty fast. No lag on the open or switching from Gnow back to chrome or vice-versa

My take is as long as your old lady isn't frequenting this thread she's not likely to get past it to your text messages its not a govnt retina scanner but it def keeps most people out. Even if you left your phone somewhere it would be more than enough security to someone who doesn't know what you look like

Hello, if you haven't heard, Amazon finally came out with a tablet version of their store app. Unfortunately, nexus 7 is the only compatible device right now.
Could someone throw up the apk on drop box so others, such as those of us with the nexus 10, could download?

Trust me, I have searched for almost an hour. Everyone, including android police where I originally found out about this app, just links to the play store, where it says not compatible. Also, I don't want to download from some sketchy website that will likely include some malware along with my desired apk.
I'm sorry if it came across as rude, it wasn't my intention. I was just surprised that no one had posted it yet.

I can't even download it from Play or Amazon because it seems to be released only to US residents.

It isn't the app; I use it almost daily from my One.
What else could it be, tried uninstalling and downloading ago but get the same message.
Everything else is ok, can read posts and subscribe, etc but cannot see a function to respond to or create a thread?

Sorry, no ideas here. However I am using the premium app, not the free one. Don't know if that makes any difference (I don't see why it should).
I get this same error sometimes but not very often. I just clear app cache and data and then it works fine again. Not sure if it'll work for you but it's worth a try

Try tapatalk 4 beta. I'm using it and it's working like a charm. Sometimes I get the security issue but closing it (pressing back when on the main/home screen) and then opening again works.
It's already available in the play store
Remember it's a beta though so it has its tiny issues (smilies don't show up correctly, they all show as the smiley or else in text) but it works and looks and feels very new and stylish
The only other thing I could suggest then would be to mention it in the XDA app thread. You may be able to get a solution in there.

Same thing happened to me. GPS couldn't lock on a signal and after a while it randomly locked on one.
Same here. I got a lock using the 'GPS test' app and it seems okay now.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Same happened to me. I updated to 4.3 and I've never had a phone with faster GPS. I know its not am answer, but I'd imagine everyone will be on 4.3 soon enough. The GPS and Bluetooth are amazing now.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Mine crapped out a while back (didn't coincide with any update) but impacted more than just Google Maps. My running app also stopped working. I used the GPS test app and it kind of worked but was still very unreliable.
Called Google, told them I already did the requisite reset, and they shipped me a new phone in two days with a call tag for the old one. Been working since.
I had this issue once and found that there was an issue with the Location settings permissions. So I cleared map cache and data and then restarted. Turned on permissions for locations and it worked. Just a thought.

Has anyone else noticed that the XDA app sometimes loads a thread immediately and then other times it gets "stuck" where it can take a very long time to load? When it gets stuck, I can click back and then click the same thread again, which sometimes will load it quickly. I notice the exact same behavior in the Amazon app when clicking a product. It happens on both WiFi and LTE and has happened with every version of android so far on the N6.
I use XDA and Amazon all the time so this is a particularly frustrating issue for me.
UPDATE: here is a video demonstrating the problem with the Amazon app:

Which XDA app? Theres like a million of them. One of the tapatalk versions?
I'm using the XDA premium app.
I'm not convinced that it's an issue specific to the app though because I didn't notice this on my Nexus 4 and the exact same issue happens in the Amazon app.

XDA premium is based on Tapatalk and Tapatalk has problems on this forum. Its specific to this forum too, because taptalk works fine on other forums I use. I think the API on XDA for Tapatalk is outdated and since XDA are working on their own new XDA app (XDA One), they're probably not going to be too bothered to fix it.
Not sure about Amazon
Tapatalk has gone into the toilet over the years at this point I would honestly pay to go back to an old version. The iOS version is such a monstrosity and just so horrible its at the point of being unusable. if the thread I want actually comes up and displays I feel like I've won something.
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
Thanks for the replies. Seems like this might be something a new XDA app could fix.
Here is a quick video I made showing the Amazon issue:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
The first 2 products open fast and then the third gets stuck. I click back and re try 5 times and on the last try, it opens fast like the first 2 did. Anyone else have this issue with Amazon?
Yes you are correct ..Those are the worse two apps to get "stuck".. Only other app is WWE SUPERCARD..Every other app is fine..I do believe it is app issues not phone related.
