the download speeds seem really sluggish.....when loading web pages on my evo 3d using same WiFi connection its much faster on the 3d. Also when streaming sporting event its really choppy and lags (unwatchable) but on my laptop or phone on the same connection runs flawless. Seems to be the same on webos...would overclocking help this? Also my downloads cut off the majority of the time on big files
the web pages loading a little slower isn't a huge deal because its not too bad but really need to be able to stream smoothly and download
Also when I stream on YouTube or basically anywhere it stops after a few seconds a buffers....can't watch anything. Not sure if this is the download cutting off like I mentioned above or something with he wifi where its not keep up and downloading at the speed it should
slightly off topic
Im running Xron b2.1, and i still cant get the wifi to work.... But it is based off cm7.1 right?

Try downloading another app, such as Dolphin HD, see if the speeds change, go to speedtest.net and see how slow you are actually going

I've had problems with my View with the Stock ROM, Desensed (up to 1.5), and CypherROM (haven't tried the latest) with Dolphin HD (and I am pretty sure the stock browser) and rendering performance. Basically, it appears that on some sites Flash and HTML5 performance degrades to the point of being unusable. An example is google instant search, as you start typing, sometimes the performance degrades so much that I can't even type a word because of the input lag (or delete one). There seems to be no rhyme or reason.
I didn't notice the problem until I went from rooted stock to Desensed, and then it continued on CypherROM alpha. I don't know if I didn't notice it at first (we were still honeymooning then) or if it's something that started when I went to a custom ROM. I do know that it's the only reason I don't use my tablet almost exclusively when I have it (my phone is a GS2).
Any ideas? If no one has suggestions, I'm going to just flash it back to stock and start over.
I see similar issues on my flyer

I am completely stock with no root on Honeycomb. I get problems with the stock browser, but Dolphin seems to work fine for me.
I notice my browser and typing experience slows down at random times. This tends to happen more frequently with browsers like stock, dolphin hd, and boat. It speeds up again after restarting the program.
Opera mobile has been the fastest for me so far. Except flash plays out of sync.
Typing is a nightmare with the stock browser. It's great with Opera, though. I've gone back to using Opera exclusively. Great little browser.
Why don't we title this "Browser Personal Preferences"? Pretty random answers. Delays of this type are also probably very dependent on how fast your internet connection is.
My issue with the stock browser has been random browser shutdowns in HC which I didn't have in GB. I have had a couple of shutdowns using Dolphin, but not as many.

Why do you think it's dependent on the internet connection?
For the OP: yeah, keyboard lag is pretty apparent in a lot of the browsers, and I remember googling it when I first got my flyer. I liked Dolphin HD, for example, but the keyboard lag was unbearable. I've had the best luck with Opera Mobile, so I suggest you play around with the different browser offerings.

How exactly is a thread asking if there is a known issue with the Flyer/View and HTML5/Flash performance supposed to be named browser preferences? I asked if anyone had heard of the issue, and if they had a suggestion or knew if it was ROM related. This has absolutely nothing to do with my internet connection, it has everything to do with rendering performance on Flash/HTML5. For the record, I live in an area with great WiMax coverage and speeds, and this happens on 12Mb/s WiMax and my 6Mb/s DSL at home.
It's also not just keyboard lag, it's all input in general.
In going back to GB, honestly I think its just HC.

For a couple of reasons.
1. Depending on the keyboard you are using , it may be going to the internet on each key press looking for suggestions.
2. The stock browsers go to google as you type looking for suggestion.

Due to the random answers>... "stock browser lags"... "no it doesn't but Dolphin does", "not"," it doesn't but this does" or that does, or maybe it does or does not.
Personally I have the stock HC Rom with the stock HTC browser using Swiftykey Tablet keyboard and FIOS high speed internet on wifi and I see no lag on the browser at all.
But clearly some people have some combinations of browser / keyboard / net access /CPU governor /ROM , that gives them issues.

What I am disappointed is I cannot sync the bookmark with PC chrome
Sometimes when I fling a page down like Engadget, the scrolling seems smooth until it slows down and lags for a couple frames before stopping. Is there anyway to stop this? I have flash content turned off. The same page on my Nexus just seems so much smoother. I figured a Tegra 3 would be able to handle web page rendering a bit better.
The same thing happens for Nova Launcher, when I hit the apps drawer button, sometimes my Prime will be a little choppy rendering my apps. On my Nexus, it's always super smooth.
I'm running Jermaine's AOKP build, but it happens on any ROM I've tried to flash. Is there any particular reason why this is happening?

I wonder the same thing. I use AOKP on my droid Razr and it runs like a champ (and we aren't even using an ICS kernel yet LMAO!) but I have similar issues on my prime, even clocked at 4x1.8ghz.

Yeah, I don't think it should be necessary to overclock a quad-core Tegra 3 to 1.8Ghz just for that. I have my max clock set at 1.3Ghz, or 1.5Ghz if I'm feeling adventurous
Have you guys tried another other ROM to see if the browsing is better?
I am unable to try that as I am stuck with a locked bootloader (stupid unknown s/n that never got fixed properly in the RMA).
I've seen others complain about Internet browsing and just haven't experienced problems. My only complaint with browsers on the Prime and my GNex for that matter is poor flash performance and being forced to view web pages in mobile mode. I absolutely hate that. The hardware in my GNex and especially this Prime is more than capable of rendering full HTML. This tablet is faster than my daughters Netbook and faster than one of my laptops. I wish Google and developers would get with the program and deliver a full browser experience. I've been using Dolphin with my Prime and it seems to be the better browser I've tried so far. I can at least set it up so that it operates in "desktop mode" giving me full HTML browsing; however, it's still not as good as it should be. I like Chrome. I wish Google would give us tablet users the full Chrome experience. There's no reason not to have the full and complete browser at our disposal.

I'm beginning to think it is the Tegra 3/Nvidia optimizations. Not a good example but the HTC One X sure has a lot of browser issues.
Even though it doesn't have flash, Safari on the iphone/ipads sure are fast considering its many cores and mhz down. Software can make a big difference.

The fire in Diablo ad is smooth on my exynos Galaxy S2 while its slow mo on the Prime. Just like phonearena's video of the Galaxy Nexus(fast) vs One X(slow).

Is this something that can be fixed in future updates from Asus since they're the ones with access to the proper Tegra 3 drivers?
opera mobile solved all previous browser issues for me. smooth & fluid as a mofo. plays flash with no problems. loads pages the fastest. lag free scrolling. And all of this is on stock 1.2Ghz
It's not so bad for me. This is engadget full site. Taken with my phone camera so not the greatest and shows distortion and choppiness while recording. Overall very smooth browsing.

I would tend to agree with you but Opera has been crashing on me. I'll be browsing then bam....crash lol.Pisses me off.Also has problems running YouTube videos all the way thru too.I even uninstalled & reinstalled but no dice.It does load pages insanely fast though.

well, the reason for lag isn't the Prime or the browser. it is ics 4.03. memory intensive tasks like javascript are performed in the main thread rather then in several threads in the background. running in the main thread in the foreground (i think single core) means it locks up your machine. the other processes have to wait until the one foreground process is done. and it doesn't help the prime that its internal memory/sd card is rather slow (cheap).

running opera mobile with page rendering on a server means you skip the javascript handling on your device. that is why opera is / looks faster. I think Sony's engineers have solved the problem on their machines and I think it will be solved in ics 4.04

Could be the browser, have you tried other browsers instead of the stock one?
I found that on previous versions (.21 seems better) if i had too many icons on my homescreens scrolling between screens was slow, different launchers were faster.
The same way you can notice a difference running chrome and IE on a desktop you can notice differences in different apps on android. Its just a matter of finding ones that work how you want. Maybe nova launcher isnt for you, have you tried others? Maybe in your custom rom they tweaked something, maybe more adjustments need to be made.
You can't compare your Nexus and your Prime, they are two different beasts. One is a motorcycle and one is a car. Different processors, different GPU's, different screen sizes, Different browsers, differen launchers, hell even different versions of ICS. Yes they both run the same apps, and run genereally the same way, but they are very very different.

I'm talking about opera mobile, not opera mini. opera mini is the one sent through severs and compressed in all that to be extra fast. Opera mini is a stripped down non flash version of opera mobile. I run opera mobile with flash on and still does everything fast. I don't cut on the Turbo mode or anything so its the straight browser working. Regardless, for me, its by far the best. I hardly ever run into sites it doesn't display properly. I have like 6 of the top browsers. no matter how many times I switch to compare, opera mobile comes out on top.
So even if its true that opera servers handle page rendering. more kudos to them. less work for my prime to do and is probably a factor into why opera mobile also uses the least amount of battery out of all the ones I have. plus opera mobile is the only browser to let you upload files and pix from it. when downloading or uploading through it, its the only one that brings up a mini file explorer to let you choose which folder you want to save to. Im not talking about others where you have to go thru settings and choose a folder and every time it downloads to that folder. opera mobile brings up a file explorer that you can choose whatever folder you want for each individual download or upload. Plus opera mobile is the only browser that doesn't hang on huge downloads or mess them up by improperly labeling them. I've downloaded plenty of big movie and rom files(FPse) with no issue.
IMO, no browser is touching Opera mobile right now. they definitely know what their doing when it comes to making a great browser. I rarely get any pop up messages telling me to wait or crashing.
all extra info just F.Y.I
Funny, but when I continuously scroll page, or scroll with right bar – no lag or freeze. When i use standard finger swipe scrolling with timeouts (1 sec more than enough) - every new swipe starts with lag. I think cpu is drop down to sleep phase in browser somehow.

when i try opera mobile i always get a very stuttered scroll. is there a way to get rid of that? it loads the page fast and so forth, but the scrolling just sucks.
I have no problems of this kind. Browsing is very smooth for me, I used to have those lock ups, but it seems Boat browser solved my problems. I'm stock and I have forced 2d acceleration enabled.
Anyone using Dolphin Browser HD experiencing this problem? Basically once I load a page and start scrolling down to read the full website, it will lag when I swipe up to scroll. I will end up having to swipe 2 or 3 times to finally get it to respond and go up. This happens every time I try to scroll. I figured it might just be a bug being that our phone is so new, but I had to install it because it was annoying.
I would love to use Dolphin though if someone knows a fix for this.

It might be the particular web site you're loading rather than the Dolphin Browser HD. My weather website, the url of which is forbidden to this 'noob', has a huge home page. It loads quickly and scrolls normally in this browser on my S3. I nearly always load web pages in this browser because it's a complete implementation with flash, not a dumbed-down wannabe.
You should try Google Chrome. It's smooth as butter on this phone.
dolphin is still better

I have this problem as well, though it was much worse on my Incredible.

Is anyone experiencing issues with this combo that gradually get worse and worse? Mostly I have issues filling out forms on websites, to post and such. Sometimes it's extremely difficult, and sometimes due to the amount of quirks it's impossible. I used to be able to find workarounds for these form issues, but more and more quirks keep popping up.
Also the screen flakes out once in a while and you have to restart the app. But the worse part, by far, is trying to fill in forms.
I don't know if Nexus 10 is the right forum for this because it might be related to the webkit infrastructure Boat Browser relies upon.
The strangest thing just happened. I was on a website where the background is white. Then for like a fraction of a second the screen got very bright. Could I be hacked? Did someone maybe just take a picture of me and messing up my Boat Browser?
my problem with the boat browser is that i cant maximize video.....when i do that i see only black screen with audio.
it start from the last 2 update of the app
if i use different browser like Maxthon the video is ok
but still i think that boat browser is the best for a desktop internet surfing

That happened to me too. I switched to a different flash version and its working better now. Sometimes it's a pain to get it to start playing, but it doesn't freeze Boat Browser any longer. I usually bypass this problem by going into full screen and it will start playing by itself. The version I am on now is 11.1.115 according to http://whatversion.net/flash/
Hope that helps.
Not sure what to make of this, but it is a consistent and repeatable issue for my device. Please try it for yourself.
Launch Google maps driving navigation and audio from either Spotify or NPR One. Then try to launch the camera. The camera viewfinder stutters, the audio lags, it's almost unusable until I kill one of the three apps. In some cases the phone will kill navigation for me (or it will somehow die on it's own, not sure).
Very frustrating and not something I expect would be an issue for this high end device. Otherwise the phone is great but this is a use case I want to take advantage of and just can't.
Phone is stock. No root or any other mods.

This happened to me yesterday (wasn’t the first time...). I couldn’t figure out why the camera was so f——ed up until I read your thread. I had just driven somewhere using GMaps and streaming Spotify. I also use the Pixel 2 modded camera app and it does not have this lag issue after running these two apps, but still happy to know what the cause is for the next time!
