Nexus 6P lag issues

[PhiPsi32]

I had the 6P hang on Google Photos (WiFi). I launched the app, gray screen for about five seconds, spinning wheel about three seconds, then fine.

Any chance you're using a password manager like lastpass? I read on a Dutch forum that this made someone's phone lag. Once removed the lag was gone.

Interesting I use Lastpass no lag whatsoever so far on mine.

Good to hear. I use lastpass as well, but am still waiting for my 6p

I was wondering if I was going crazy, lot of apps are lagging on my new 6p that were fast on my 2014 Moto X. I think I may have a bad radio, might send it back before the 14 days are up and get a new one. At this point, I'm having a bit of buyers remorse that I shouldn't have with this phone.

Before you send it back, you can do a mobile data reset. Settings >backup and reset >network settings reset

I managed to gum up my 6P. I hit it hard with panorama and photosphere shots. Phone got hot. App switching slowed down. I also burned up the battery in about five hours. Full screen brightness. Did not measure SOT but it would be most of that time.

I was using laspass, uninstalled it because it was guzzling battery.

This actually seemed to help. Things are opening a little more quickly now.

I've also realized through my intense scrutiny that some apps just open slowly all the time, while some are optimized for instant response to touches. The worst offender that I have installed is Skype, which often has a 1 second plus delay from touch to response. I'm leaning towards this being more of an app optimization issue than a phone issue, but I've got two days left to decide.

Also, something is really chewing through my battery...

Install a battery monitor like GSAM (https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ails?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm&hl=en&token=0681DQYp) to help locate the app that's eating up battery power.

GSAM seems to have issues with Marshmallow, including causing the battery to drain faster on some phones. At this point I wouldn't use it until they update it again, they are still on a build from August, a month and a half or so before Marshmallow was released.

Check your Gmail application. I had the same issue. Clear cache then clear data then restart your phone. Once you do this then you don't have to keep doing it.

Why does it use battery when not in use though? Because of cloud syncing in the background maybe? I use Keepass2Android instead because it backs up to cloud but uses GDrive rather than servers run by the developer and it only backs up and syncs when you make changes rather than using an always-on type of sync.

I use Lastpass and have had no issue with it using battery, same as someone else mentioned.

I am so glad to find someone else who is also facing these issues.
I thought i was the only one.
I am facing intermittent lagging and heating and its really frustrating because now I have had it replaced twice. Still the problem won't go.
I thought since the heating was only happening to me in my office where the signal strength is pretty bad it might be because of that. So i started switching to Airplane mode and still the heating or lagging persists.
The issue happens even in safe mode.

Me too, in fact I created an account just to say exactly that as my first post ever.

Im having exactly same issue with Nexus 6

 

[Zach Charlie]

0 lag or the occasional lag and stutters, for me, i get a really hard lag every couple of days, it gets warm very frequently and games arent 60 fps, is this true for you as well?

 

[Zach Charlie]

i dont think its that because the same thing happens to me from time to time, it gets really warm then it will lag like crazy and i have to just let is sit for 30-60 seconds before i can use it

The only lag I experienced with this phone is when my boss calls me and I wait as long as I can before I pick up.
