My G4 lags, should I take it back?

[speedfreek64]

I noticed from day one that sometimes my G4 doesn't respond to my every touch. Sometimes it's the keyboard & sometimes it's scrolling through web pages. Is this normal or does mine have a problem? I really want to like this phone but the lag is very annoying and ruins the experience for me. Should I take it back?

Mine is is the Verizon version. I'm trying to figure out if this lag is normal and if they all do it.

What is the latest build now? I'm on ATT and if I got an upgrade it sneaked thru without my noticing.

They sure did. I just grabbed it. They put out readme files for these things? I can't find anything.

I hope it's rolling out in stages because I haven't seen an update yet...I just checked manually and nothing is there either.

I could be crazy but mine seems much snappier.

Try a factory reset. I did a factory reset before I even logged in the first time, but during my initial day or two of usage, I'd occasionally and randomly get really terrible lag. A second factory reset seems to have cleared that up, though there is some lag, but a lot less frequently than it used to be. A lot less frequently.

My battery seems like crap, though.

If you haven't already gotten it, the update settings should pull it up right away, mine did.

Verizon here I get it but it's very infrequently. Not nearly enough for concern.

Thanks for sharing. From what I've read on various posts the lag seems to be hit & miss. I may try a reset. If that doesn't work I may go see about a replacement, that is another brand new replacement. No way would I accept a refurbished G4! If I can't get another brand new one I may look elsewhere.

I am with Verizon and I have pretty terrible lag. I miss words all the time with google keyboard and vibrate feature on. If I turn vibrate off, I may miss a letter or two every few seconds but that may be touch issue as everyone else is talking about? I've done factory reset 4 times and same results. I plan on taking it back and see if I can get another from Best Buy.

Well, I'm pretty bummed. I returned my G4 to Verizon and am back to using my trusty HTC M7. I really wanted to like the G4 but my M7 is much smoother and lag free so I think it was the right decision

You made the right move for you, sorry it didn't work out.

The G4 is a great device that I'm sure updates will improve the new device Woe's.

Never had lag issues, but...Battery seems to go down quicker since today's AT&T update :-(

Facebook messenger made mine noticeably slower.
