So I'm a new Nexus 7 owner. Got it in pre-order. And new to Android entirely. Have had 2 iPhones and have used an iPad 2 extensively.
I like the tablet a lot.
However, it seems to be developing a lag problem that appears to be worsening. And I can't for the life of me figure out why. And when I say lag, I mean like waiting 10+ seconds for a website to come up on Chrome. Or 60 seconds for Facebook. Or 15 seconds for Google Now to clean up after pulling it up. GoogleTalk/Gchat can be similarly bad.
I've installed a system monitor to see what's going on, and its still not clear. I'm not overloaded on apps - maybe 110 total, including all the defaults. I have 3.2gig of storage left out of the original 16. I don't have anything serious running in the background. Only a few widgets - Sense Analog clock, a weather channel widget, calendar, CNBC news, and the Play Music widget.
I realize that the Facebook app is crap, and that Chrome is apparently laggy too. But the Google app? And it wasn't laggy out of the box. So I'm assuming there isn't a hardware problem here, so what could be doing this and what are some solutions.
Anybody have any insight here?
