So far to test it further more I played some THD-games/tegra3 optimized games like DeadTrigger and Shadowgun and the lag is unbearable. Ive had the device for a while now(pre-ordered) but I didnt really have the time to try some games so Im not sure if its been like this or if its the update. Pretty much all fps game lags to hell. Its unplayable. Ive looked at vids on youtube of people playing similar games and theyre device seems to do well. Not mine though.
Heres some info that could help:
Nexus 7:
Not-Rooted
4gb space used( its the 16gb version)
OTA updates so Im guessing its the 4.2 ver.( google currents and all...)
You've probably got some app that is bringing your performance down.

Disable the sync feature in Google currents. Also as someone said it might be a rogue app. Mine is fine gaming.

The only time my N7 lagged was when I filled up my memory, I had 600 MB left.on the SD card.
What lag one experienced none

The only people who don't have lag while gaming is those that don't have anything installed in their nexus 7. I mean literally nothing, except the stock apps. Those type of people are the so called "geeks" and most of xda folks in nexus scenes are geeks. No use asking your question to these folks because they'll give the same answers: uninstall all apps. IMO what you can do now is root and install a custom kernel then over clock your cpu and gpu. I was having the same issue as you OP, but after a few tweaks here and there, the lags are reduced (but still visible somewhere). 4.2.1 is making our nexus 7 slow, that's a fact. Hopefully Google will fix this issue soon..

i know that feeling, having to uninstall something to install something else
One thing I did notice that I found unusual is that I'm always at 450-600mb of ram usage. I tried terminating every task and I only got it down to 400+mb. There's no way that the OS uses that much.... Or does it?

So your saying you only had minimal lag during the prev versions? If that's true then it can work if I flashed a ROM from the previous JB updates?

No, you got the wrong idea. I said that my Nexus 7 got that blasted lag while playing games ever since I first got it. After root, overclocking of cpu and gpu, my Nexus 7 is somewhat having less lag than before, but it's still lagging nonetheless

That is nonsense. I have loads of apps loaded, and the device is full of media, and I have no lag whatsoever. Either on 4.2 or 4.1 (which I have moved back to to fix Bluetooth issues).
The lag is a myth.
Same.. i have like 400mb memory left on mu nexus 7 16gb and no lag what so ever. Smooth as butter... im completely stock aswell.

I have about 2gb free on my 32gb nexus. Full of games and media. Got a little lag before I disabled currents now the only games that get a little stutter are gameloft games but that's nothing new

I have a 16GB I bought back in September and it had the lag problem and I had about 600mb free. I kept doing the Forever Gone trick (filling up alll the free space and then deleting it) and it helped in the short term, but the lag would always return eventually. So I decided to bite the bullet and made a Nandroid to an external USB flash drive through the latest version of TWRP, copied /data/media to it too and then formatted /system, /data and /cache. Simply doing a factory reset wasn't enough; it had to be a fresh re-format of ext4. Then I restored my Nandroid and copied back /data/media and even with 600mb free, I have had no lag ever since.
I think a re-format on all the N7 partitions using a recovery built on the latest Google kernel (I.e. a kernel based on 4.1.2 or newer) is the only way to properly reset the internal map of the 16gb's flash controller for those that shipped with plain 4.1. A simple factory reset won't do it because it only deletes files via rm, rather than re-format with mkefs.ext4 (verified because after a factory reset, the files on /data/media (which lives on the main /data partition) were still there).
I suspect that newer N7s that shipped with 4.1.2 or newer probably don't have this problem, even if they have the same flash controller.

I also have experienced lags in NFS most wanted. I think that problem is connected with multiuser accounts, because when the game started lagging, i have switched to second user account and killed apps running in background. IT helped and game was again smooth. IT was not once, I had this problem several times.

Really? That's weird. Because I have 77 apps installed including the stock system apps (27 of them are games, quite a few are very large like GTA 3 & Vice City) and I have no lag whatsoever.
So no, it's not "fact". Stock 4.2.1 16GB unrooted.
I love it when people use their own tiny experience to create "fact" for the rest of the world.

Bought Shadowgun yesterday and I tried to download the additional 250mb but after the first file is downloaded the app is closing. Tried few times but it's the same. I'm using ext2 1gig partition and I have a samsung 32gb class 10 memory card.
My other question is will shadowgun run on the milestone with chainfire3d?
Thanks!
Helló
Akkor nem én vagyok az egyetlen ezzel a problémával
BY THE WAY I installed ChainFire 3D and then i could download all the files needed but the game is still not running. After the new game intro video the game's crashed so I don't have any clue that we gonna play that or not. I'm looking for a solution that might help us to play with it. Same goes for Deadspace tho i could play with it once already with a nice fps but after the 2nd playing it becomes laggy and ish sooo... But as soon as i have any ideas, i'll let you know
Could you play?
Did you manage to play?
Milestone have a small Ram and Temple run don't work, shadowgun too. Maybe create a swap, maybe help
Sorry for my english
I play so many games
Hey. Just want to let you guys know that i play Temple run 2 without any lag! Extreme road trip 2, Angry grany run, Zombie Road Trip, Turbo Kids,
Splinter cell HD, Nova HD, Asphalt HD, League of Evil, Sandstorm, Subway Surfers(after recent updates i can't play), Dungeon Hunter HD AND MANY MORE.
Shadow gun.. I downloaded hte 250mb it asked via wi-fi. Although it said 250mb it downloaded 470mb!
I ran it with Chainfire 3D and after selecting play it just crashed :/
I'm running CM7.2.4e. Using minimod's open recovery with which i can overclock it and it comes with supercharger kit.
Phone running at 1150 mhz and supercharged for gaming. And of course i use Chainfire 3D
How do i run it lag free? First i go to running services and stop everything that is running except settings. I get around 90MB free ram
I'm happy with my MILESTONE
Share with some tips and tricks if you have some
Hope my info was helpful
i think kernel is the key
just tried this shadowgun,running smooth but rather boring
im playing aralon hd and rainbow6 hd
using droid as a portable multifunction device
running at 125-700mhz and about 100m ram available
steel droid v11.0 removed/frozen some sys apps
swapping 64m on /data swappiness tune to 100
in my case, sc doesnt improve performance a bit and over 700mhz doesnt help in addition to drain battery quickly and get chip hot
i think kernel is the key
I have a Motorola Milestone running 2.3.7 MIUI, I have lots of internal memory and big size SD card. The problem I have is running aloty of games on the Milestone is very difficult, For example, I would start a game the game would load, half way through loading, the screen goes black and turns to the home screen. I have tried Chainfire 3D and this works about 60-70% of the time. So my question is, does anybody have any ideas on how I can run games smoothly and makes them load, I guess. Thanks in advance!
that behavior is consistent with the milestone's lack of ram memory (it has only 256mb) i had one and the last game that runs ok is modern combat 2. and that with long loading time and a very variable framerate...

Start to flash CM7 it's like night and day with MIUI. Then... you should wait the official release of CM7 using 2nd boot option to boot on an other kernel. It will use a sort of swap that will allocate more RAM to your device and you may play a little better.
But the Milestone is surely not a phone to play on!

I was CM7 for about 6 months I got a bit bored of it after a while so I came to MIUI, I have the brand new update.zip with the 2nd boot option already. So when will the CM7 Official come out? and also would Partitioning the SD card make any difference? Thanks!

Partitioning accordingly will let you spare internal memory, that's fine but nothing more. Miui is cute but very very very memory hungry. CM is better for games. Actually the older is the release, the better games run, since there's more free ram. You should really wait a few hours/days for a good 2ndBoot with swap enabled CM7 build.

That's not even a beta. I usually use nightly builds and beta, but I won't tell others to use it. To many issues at the moment, really (need to deep sleep after boot, battery use). By the way, Kab github is pretty on the frenzy way at the moment, so... be patient IMHO

I assume that with this settungs your overall performance, when youre not gaming is a mess
I'm using my Xperia T since 3 weeks ago, and overall I'm satisfied.
However, since I got back again to using Chrome instead of the stock browser, an unwelcome thought that creeped in my mind well before buying the XT came back full force: 1gb of ram is just not enough anymore.
Yeah, I know all too well that Chrome's memory consumption is absurd (I seriously think my full Win7 pc would probably run better given the same ram amount).
But it's very distressing when you open the 4th tab in chrome, and suddenly every other app gets terminated by Android, including the music player (which I was joyfully listening to), the home screen, emails, messages, etc.
Problem is, that the situation is still the same after many Chrome updates. It looks as if Chrome raised the bar for device memory, setting it to a 2gb minimum for "pro" devices. This is ridiculous, and it's gonna look worse, given that in JB and onwards there's no stock browser anymore.
I think the XT is not even a bit future proof. If this Chrome annoyance becomes real and everyday's, I may sell it well before than I expected.
Any thoughts?
Since music app is "making processes and producing sound" actively then it must be considered as a foreground app. Or at least a part of it (services) is active on the foreground. A fore ground app can not be closed by the system unless the available memory is really critical (less than 4 Mb i guess). Sometingh else must be forcing your devices memory. Galaxy S3 has the same amount of RAM but i have never seen it stopping the music or radio with neither stock music app or poweramp. Which music app is that?

the app is Sony's walkman app (Sony's stock music player).
tell me, have you ever used chrome with more than 2-3 tabs open? try it. it can bring your device down to its knees, sucking away the last remaining byte of ram from the system. it did so with my last year's Motorola atrix 2, it does now with my XT. same ram amount.
other than that, I've got facebook and whatsapp, and the least number of automatic syncs active.
I never experienced something like this. Usually have about 8 to 10 tabs open for sites I check regularly. Phone is always fast and smooth

Same here. No prob with chrome on stock rom.

Also no problems here, 6 tabs, while playing walkman via Bluetooth to a headset, auto sync on, WiFi on, could you try resetting both apps, force stop, clear cache and try again, see if it helps!
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
I sometimes even exceed 12 tabs. Nothing so for. Because Chrome also has RAM management. If it notices that the free RAM is decreasing rapidly it saves one -or more- of the background tabs into a temp memory and closes it. Once you click on a closes tab it shows it in grey and takes 1-2 secs to relaod. It does not try to force keep every tab in the RAM.
In this thread I'm making different hypotheses.
1) Chrome sucks. It's dog slow, and becomes slower day after day (cache size growing indefinitely). It's pig fat.
2) Xperia T can't handle Chrome because 1 gig of ram is not enough for it.
The first one is a fact. I tended to just blame Chrome, but now I'm considering the second view too.
I'm happy if you don't have any problems with 6 or 12 tabs, but for me the issue strikes at as few as 4 tabs. Music stopping, home reloading, and everything. By the way, I wonder what are your average tabs' content in Chrome.
I am now testing Firefox and it seems it's much lighter on the system while displaying the same tabs. Now I wish they would strip out that useless extensions support... no one needs them, at least on mobile...
P.S.: When I say "four tabs" I mean tabs you're actively browsing in, not dormant/unloaded tabs!
How about the other way around? Does your browser keep refreshing if u open like 5 apps or more and go back to browser?
My s3 is getting an issue like this and I'm annoyed. Would like to switch or wait for 2gb ram Xperia Z

Usual apps get reloaded pretty quickly on my Xperia, it almost goes unnoticed to me. Other than that, I think it's down to the individual app's weight.
Judging from the running apps list, most apps weigh well below Chrome.
How come there is only 643 mb total available ram?
And is there a way to lock apps in memory? I want to lock browser, it keeps reloading if I opened 2 apps and go back to browser.
Or can we modify how android is killing the apps?
Thanks
Edit: I searched and found out that the gpu eats the remaining ram

R: [Q] 1gb ram not enough?
The memory not shown is used by the video card (probably 128 mb), the linux kernel and drivers and maybe some core android libraries.
The scandal is that 300~400 megs used by android apps just to idle around.
Even an easy app like whatsapp eats 8 mb just to sit there and wait for incoming messages.
This really boils down to bad os design.

I use the stock browser mostly cause it plays flash and chrome doesn't and before I update to JB I'm going to back it up with Titanium Backup I've also read that Jelly Bean can play flash too even if it's not as stable

Trust me it handles it just fine... Try it on a Samsung Captivate (or Nexus S which is equivalent) with 512 MB of RAM.

I haven't tried the latest Firefox on my Xperia TL, but on my Captivate running CM 10.1, it was even more bloated than Chrome.
Try any of these:
Full versions;
Boat Mobile
Opera
Xscope
Dolphin
All of them are WAY faster than chrome, (especially boat and opera) and easily handle a heavy tab load.

Uh.. No.. Android has _WAY_ better memory management than most OS' including Windows. Try running Chrome on a Pentium 4 1.5 Ghz (MIPS equivalent???) with only 768 MB of system memory available.
Most versions of windows would choke and die on that.
the way Android handles memory is brilliant and allows for seamless multi-tasking. I would suggest a couple of things:
1) Root your phone and remove the bloated apps.
2) If you don't want to root your phone, disable apps you are not using. Like instead of leaving the stock messaging app enabled while using What's app, disable it. It will reduce your messaging requirements.
And really, don't you want your messaging app running all the time? Do you want to miss a message?

I don't have any 512mb phone anymore, but I've tried Explorer on a WP7.8 phone with that amount of ram and it ran faster, leaner, lag-less, and it didn't shut down tabs or other system apps with 6 tabs open.

I am already trying Opera (but like Firefox more for its smoothness, and Opera's UI is outdated after many years), and have used Dolphin some time. Second hand browsers are all more or less clones built around major engines. I prefer first hand.

MIPS? ARM you mean? Either way if there's only 768mb available out of 1gb, it's still android's/google's fault. Specifically in my Xperia T there's only ~650mb available, making it a combined Google-Sony fault.
Besides, I'm not talking of bad memory management, but of Google's bad design choices. Without going too deep, Google could have chosen to use native code like ios, to improve speed and memory consumption. Java code (turned into native code at run-time) can not be shared between apps, so if 2 apps use the same java library, basically the same native code will be generated and stored twice. I don't know if android core libraries are native or java, but the minimum 3-4mb memory usage per process, even the lightest one, points to the worse option, at least for part of the libs.
Besides memory consumption, android's java runtime (dalvik) is not nearly as fast as it should be; it eats dust from .net (Windows phone) and oracle's desktop java. But Google is not interested in gettings these things better, unless we're talking of in app purchases, ads, or other sources of their revenue....
Also keep in mind programmers will do as much as you allow them in terms of bloat. Google's Android team should be slapping Facebook's all the time for consuming up more memory than a browser instance of facebook on my full-featured Windows box (66mb on android for the service alone vs 60mb on internet Explorer 10), but with their class-leading memory-whore Chrome, they come first in the blame list.
Ultimately, I think it's all Google's fault, be it for bad design decisions or for not keeping the environment controlled enough.
1gb of ram is easily enough for a top end device (though 2gb is optimal) but as has been mentioned, its due to 'bad' design, android was built for blackberry style devices and quickly edited to run on touchscreens to compete with the iPhone so at its core its not really a touch OS. If you were to buy an ancient castle and try upgrade it to a modern 5star hotel or build a 5 star hotel from scratch you will see what I mean - this is why we have launcher being killed from memory on the s3 with 1g ram, bad handling with the browser etc...
The problem is, while Google do eventually get around to fixing fundamental flaws (project butter for example) its always too late and after just trying to throw better hardware at it. An iPhone 3gs was smoother than the s3 quad core on ICS, that was embarrassing for them and they realised it was time to fix it in the software because hardware only improved it so much... Next year when our phones have 4gb ram and browsers lose the data and need to reload while iPhone 4s retain all 8 tabs on 512 mb ram will force them to implement a project ram type change to the os. I wish it wasn't necessary though because jelly bean on 2012/13 flagships should be perfect, not almost there.

Let's hope it gets better on jelly bean !
So, I am very fond of my N7 and use it for virtually everything ( except phone calls as I use my iPhone for that but nexus 4 will be my new friend soon) but recently things have been bumpy as it seems there is some kind of memory management issue because of which if I switch between too many apps everything starts to lag. This is present is CM 10.1, Aokp, PA and all ROMs I have tried and its killing me inside! Even music starts to lag due to this and I am baffles by this issue as this has never happened before.
So, is anyone else facing this!? Does this have anything with 4.2.1 in general or is this a kernel level issue?
Lastly is there any solution to it or should I downgrade to 4.1.2!?

The only time I experienced such is with some of the apps on my phone. I think that is due to a rogue app hogging memory. Haven't experienced flashing custom roms on N7 yet though. But I think you should look at the apps you have installed.
Two things are known to cause this on N7
1/ Lack of free space
2/ Multi-user accounts on the device
(although 2/ may cause 1/)
^
I second the poster above me. I've read threads where they experience sluggishness when they are low in storage space. Haven't experienced that on my 32GB nexus 7 though. I still have 12GB left and its still smooth as silk in terms of transition and performance.
I have 4gb free memory on 3g modell, but everything go smoothly. Yesterday i have too much lags, but i too quickly switching apps, mx player, chrome, Gdisk, angry birds, youtube.
After restart, everything go on right way.

Hi , that´s my opinion
Twice 10.1 or JB port , have a problem with battery duration (and other minor bugs)
the game play are so laggy ,and you really have a slow experience with diary use.
AOkp I think that is trustworthy to the JB use. but the same with lag .
Thanks for your work !!!! and I hope you get new roms updates.
Sorry for my english...
jelly bean requires a lot of more RAM than GB. That's why there is some lag, I suggest to use smartassv2 as CPU governor if you need performance, if you need to save battery use interactiveX.

Is it possible to fix the camera now?. Since preview problem seems to be known now?
i tried installing cm-10.1-20130629-UNOFFICIAL-jena today but get an error 7.
factory reset, cache partition and dalvik cache have been wiped, i`m using cwm 6.0.3.2.
versioncm-10.1-20130611-UNOFFICIAL-jena works without any problems.
what could i be doing wrong ?
edit: i returned to the working version and flashed it new because i finally wanted to get rid of the gapps package i installed before.
however even after flashing 0611 again gapps still seem to be on my system.
do i have to wipe anything else i`m not aware of ? the target is a cyanogen 0611 or 0629 without any gapps
do you have cwm 6.0.3.2 build 4 ?
ohh! it`s build 3 actually!
thx a lot! will give it a try at once
no problem
it worked perfectly thanks again!
the only thing i`m still facing is that gapps still seem to be on the system from a previous installation, although i wiped the 3 settings mentioned above.
is 0629 supposed to have the play store, services and other google named services? can i get rid of them somehow?
edit: solved, i had to format /system /data /cache. now gapps and other parts of the previous installations are definitely gone. happy happy!
The performance greatly depends on the game you're playing. Currently with CM10 20130629 (the NFC patch doesn't work, BTW) I have good performance with Icy Tower 2, but micro lags on Jetpack Joyride. Of course both of these games run perfectly on stock, but Icy Tower 2 has some graphical glitches not appearing on JB. But Jetpack Joyride is a lazy port from iOS and it can stutter even on better phones. But the overall performance is just fluid. Will test Vice City later to see if a lot has changed since April 2013, when I lastly tested VC on CM10.
those "micro lags" are because of RAM. I had an old PC with 256MB (!) RAM like 5-6 years ago, when I played NFSMW, I would get freezes/lags each 3-5 seconds, the loading screen took ages to load, then I put in another 512MB and everything was fine. No lags/freezes, loading screens didn't load forever etc.
On cm10 and cm9 for less ram usage i went to Developer options, scrolled to the bottom and set background processes to 1 or 0.
There are no these options on cm10.1, right? I dont know did you mean slow ramread/write or high usage with old pc example...
Sent from my GT-S6500D using xda app-developers app
Ahh...the old-school NFSMW - one of my favorite games of all time.
But Android manages RAM differently than Windows, so 512MB shouldn't be a problem because it runs file on stock 2.3.6.
Looks like Jetpack Joyride stutters when there are certain sprites drawn. Seems to be some kind of GPU thing. If GTA VC runs better than this, I'll uninstall this crap.
That was just an example that RAM matter a lot in games. Temple Run 2 uses >100MB. Imaging what more demanding games require. I have about ~50-60MB free RAM when the phone is idle.
I have 210 at idle and still same lag and low fps as it is when 120 is free
Edit: cm9 has more than 100mb/s faster ram read speed than cm10, .1, aokp. And it has performance as good on 800mhz as cm10 has at 1.05ghz. Stock rom read is 500 mb/s, cm9 450, cm10 350

Well, looks like that's the problem. I noticed that actually earlier when people were posting benchmark results, everything was higher than on stock, except for the RAM speed.
I guess there's nothing to do about it? It's all in the kernel.
Probably gpu performance depends on ram speed... So improving ram speed will improve gaming performance and overal performance of the device in cm9, cm10, cm10.1 and aokp.

thanks for your job TheWhisp CM 10.1 is awesome like you thank you very much
I don't know which games you play but I play various gba roms and hacks via my boy emulator and it is very smooth. those temple run etc. do not appeal to me. If they were then probably I would have bought a better phone. but know this. Mini 2 is not a phone to play games.
oh and a question to @TheWhisp cm10.1 or aokp. whats the difference. which one do you prefer?
You fixed camera using same liboemcamera?
