I just did a clean flash of CM10.1 on my SGSII. After I booted back up and things started downloading, I noticed that everything was downloading at under 1kb/s. Yes, under one KB per second. Streaming media is fast as ever but this is SO slow. My Nexus 7 and Acer A500 are fine on the Play store but my SGSII is painfully slow. Right now, Facebook says it has 35 minutes to download.
Anyone else having this issue right now? Or should I go back to the CM10.1 thread and continue to get flamed for blaming the ROM?

The Play store is also super slow for me, on both my SG3 and TF300. I haven't updated to the Play store 4.0, so I don't know if that's what's causing it.
Try this play store. It is the 4.0 version.

I'm dealing with the same thing, I just rooted my Sprint Galaxy S3 and now the market is super slow, it's also slow on my rooted Nexus 7, but just fine on my rooted EVO 4G LTE. it's gotten somewhat better overnight..
Here goes again. This time on my Nexus 7.
until the play store updates it will be slow . so allow it to update ( install play services , Google settings , latest version etc) then it will work properly

I updated the Play Stores manually.
Yep, things have sped up and acting normally. Updated manually to the new play store, went with the modded black version.

Doing it again on my Nexus 7 and Acer A500. The Play Store is crap lately.
I'm not sure what the problem is, but the Play Store has been incredibly slow for me for days. I have a stock Galaxy S3 and Play Store v4, but it was equally slow on v3 of the store. I ran a speed test and everything is fine with the wifi. I'm downloading a test file at around 1-2 MB/s. When I try to update an app in the store, my download speed appears to be around 150 KB/s. These updates should download in a few seconds and did a while back, but somewhere along the line it has gotten stupidly slow. I have no idea what to do about it. My wife has a Galaxy Axiom with v3 of the store and updates run just as slow on her phone. I've rebooted the phone, and power-cycled the router and modem. The speed of everything else seems to be fine though, it's just the store that is ridiculously slow. Tried clearing the cache too, didn't help.
Mine is off and on with issues. I think it's something to do with the farm of servers your account is on, maybe some issues or something in that server farm or something. I dunno. Just a thought.
Appears to be slow again. So slow I can't even download anything. I'm on an 802.11n connection, running a 75mbit fiber connection to the internet. It's not on my end. Especially because everything else is fast. How do I even report this stuff?

My YouTube app is behaving horribly. When I try to search and watch something it plays a random video...Most notably its been playing like lil Wayne videos instead of something like a video from machinima.
Is mine a defect?
Noticed that with the display model too. Nexus S sitting next to it when both pushed at same time took like .5 sec for Nexus S and 7 or 8 sec for the 3D...same once list loaded, selected the same video at same time and it was about 10 sec behind the Nexus S, and yes both were running on 3G mode not 4G. Needless to say I didnt buy one today even though I drove 60 miles round trip to do so
Did u do the ota I haven't had that issue been having fun on YouTube and the net haven't done the ota update yet.
I did a reboot and it seems to be working fine. This time though I am on WiFi instead of 3g.

Yeah, I updated whatever HTC gave me.
Seems to be a problem with being on 3G. The same videos loaded up fine and played the video I wanted in WiFi, while if I was on 3G, it loaded for a while and then played a random video completely irrelevant to the one I chosen.
Argh. Anyone know Bestbuy's exchange policy?
Similar issue here. I went to market and searched for youtube. It did not show as installed so I installed youtube from the market (even though it was on the phone obviously) and everything works fine now. BTW...I had the problem after the OTA. Didn't check before.
I tried that and it still does not work properly..
It's perfect on WiFi while it plays a random video over 3G..
The new update broke YouTube again for me. The issue I am having is constant buffering on the YouTube app while using the "hd " setting. Right now I am on .13, before I was on .11 and still had that issue. When I upgraded to .11.1 it fixed the YouTube buffering issue and now that I am on .13 I have that issue again . Gary can this please be addressed.
I can't have the upgrade yet (ww version here .11) and youtube was broken too. Yesterday, Youtube gave me an error every time I opened it. Today, youtube works but slowly, very slowly.
My tf201 is not upgraded so it is not upgrade's fault.
Please, use the search engine before posting
It seemed like on ".11.1" they fixed youtube, not on .11. Now on .13 it seems like youtube is broken again. Also I ran a speed test and i am getting worse speed with .13 then i was using .11.1. I have a 40M connection down. On .11.1 i was getting around 5Mb now i am getting about 3M. My upload speed doesnt seem to be affected because it is getting 5M.
I don't think its the update. My Droid x is having issues aswell. (On same wifi connection) so its probably a YouTube server issue.

This is a YouTube back-end server issue that Google has been working on for two days. It happens on every ICS device I have tried with the stock browser. You will probably see this up and down availability for the next couple of days from YouTube. Any coincidence that it started occurring when they rolled out the last version of Chrome.
Just tried and no issues here runs smooth

I watched a couple of YouTube vids today w/no problems; I did take the 2/8 update. I do think the update affected my battery life though, but I'm giving it a few days to shake itself out.

Yeah, I concur.
From what I've read here and there, it would seem that Google is aware of the issue, and this doesn't necessarily pertain to our latest update on the TFP.
However, that is not to say that I want to quit pointing the finger at ASUS for my issues on this particular piece of hardware.
I think it's just habitual and somewhat human of us to immediately associate all issues with the hardware manufacturer.

I also had issues with youtube flickering and making it difficult to search. I just tried restoring youtube in Titanium and then reinstalled it from Titanium, selecting "App only" instead of "App plus data" and all seems well so far
edit - uninstall then reinstall using titanium
Its not the back end its the way the YouTube app buffers. It buffered correctly in 11.1 but not in the new update. It seems like its not caching. Properly
Just wanted to ask you guys if you noticed any difference in your flash player performance since you updated to .14.
It is slower on certain pages for me. For example the VODs on gomtv.net in high quality are very laggy, before they played totally smooth. Could be related to the new tegra3 drivers? Youtube 1080p is still totally fine though... Not sure whats the problem. Do you know some other sites to test flash?
Before you asked i tested all performance settings and uninstalled/reinstalled flash player.
Flash player updated a few days ago. If you on latest version not sure what it could be then. Maybe just that site or network acting kinda funny. Haven't noticed anything different specific to new update though.
Yeah i tested some other pages and streams, everything seems fine except that site. Must be related to that homepage. Sucks, but i'm pretty sure it will be fixed (through prime update, flash update or site update) in the future because i know it can run perfectly smooth (as it was with .11).
Is there any way to disable flash? I just want to test browser results with flash disabled.
Flash was always slow as molasses. Just slow, not slower.
Sent from my tablet thing with XDA Premium.
thx for your answers. Its still bugging me though. I tested about 10 streaming sites now, all of them are smooth except gomtv.net. There must be something different because this definately started with the update to .14. Hmmm.
I don't know if I am just setting this up wrong but so far I have tried:
Energy Blue
Energy stock
Android revolution
stock
jelly bean fusion
and all the them slacker don't work right.
Just hangs on songs randomly after about 2 songs and won't go any further.
Are there any roms that have this working correctly?
Anyone?

It was figured out in another thread... You have to set your min processor frequency higher. If its to slow then the app will act weird when the screen is off and the phone deep sleeps
Sent from my epic amaze 4g
Yeah I saw that guys post too and posted there.
set mine not to go below the 400 range one and still had the same issues with no change.
Yeah, I've noticed this too. I've got a ticket open with Slacker. I noticed this right after the update to ICS, Slacker stopped working. Slacker customer service sucks, big time. Tons of reviews on Google Play say it hangs after a couple songs. It hung with stock after ICS update, stock after ICS update in safe mode, the 3.2.2047 hangs, and even the just released 3.2.2058 (which is supposed to fix connectivity issues), still hangs.
I've had two tickets open with slacker, one a couple months ago, and it took forever to get them convinced it wasn't my WiFi. I told them on the same connection, I could sit and watch Netflix all day. It's clearly a problem with their app. I wouldn't care so much if I didn't like the service so much.
I've given the app a single star review along with my several trouble tickets.
It's inexcusable for the app to not work, since it's a bundled app.
I've used a few Jelly Bean ROMs since switching to Straight Talk last night on my unlocked Note. Everything works fine on Straight Talk except GPS. Just can't seem to get a signal no matter what I do.
Are there any non-stock ROM's (preferably JB) that GPS works 100%?
Thanks!
I have tried almost all the roms...And use gps daily...The worst I seen is its lock time connecting...but it eventually works..also a gps fix I seen somewhere.Plus a Gps app that helps fix connection gime to satellites
But the best fix is to change out you cong files to a better region...
And you can also save google maps for OFFLINE so you can use it????
Just save the files..and open it up when needed!
CM10 nightlies lock on pretty quickly and repeatedly. May want to give them a try.

The above app has a feature that will reset the aGPS data and download new data as well. Works extremely well when traveling overseas or in a new area.
Trying CM10 now (latest build)...gotta get this GPS working...other than this the Note and Straight Talk has been awesome!

I have no problems with GPS, been using Dagr8's ROMs for a while, King Kang, currently using the AOKP JB B5.
I found this for saving offline maps..hope this helps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412755
Well I installed Cryagen Nightly CM10 (version released today) and still no GPS...tried King Kang and AOKP with the same results...even been outside fir a while with still nothing.
Download the app for the play store in my first post. It will give you an option to download a-GPS data. Once the note has that lock on is about 5 seconds.
Tried this and still doesn't work. I'll be calling Straight Talk tomorrow if no one has any more suggestions!
Thanks!

why not connect to wifi so its faster at home or what not..Then just save the maps for offline use? ..for now anyways till you find a more stable connection..least it will help if you need to get somewhere..the maps you can save are huge...
I am on straight talk as well for about two weeks. I needed navigation and realized i couldn't get it to work. I have tried a few different thing as well. No dice. I would be interested in how your conversation goes with ST. Please give a update.

TO Kinz1980:
Have you actually tried to go out and about with the GPS or are you just sitting inside trying to get it to work? Also, have you tried different ROM's and what not? Read below to see my (possible) fix and current experiences.
Well, while on the phone with Straight Talk to see what the issue COULD be I was standing outside with them on the phone and all of a sudden my GPS started working. Maybe I wasn't thorough enough in my own testing (actually walked out to the street today...previously I was just on my porch)?
I tested it a few times with closing the app, restarting it...locks on to my position damn quick and is very accurate...to a degree (see below). Also my phone died this morning so maybe the battery hitting 0 then recharging or something did it, I don't know for sure.
All I know is that its working (using CM10 nightly build) with Google Navigator for the most part. I will use it later today IRL when I've got to go to a friends house then update once I know its actually WORKING turn-by-turn.
I know when I was outside today it was a tad slow in updating my position (walked about 100ft up the street a few times and it was very slow to notice the change in location/direction or didn't change at all on some occasions) and a couple times the GPS signal would drop for a few seconds, etc. So like I said, I'm going to do more thorough testing here in a bit and update with my final results.
All I do know is that it is at least WORKING...may not be super good at this point, but I am getting a lock. Its a start!
I was driving when it was not working. When i am at home it uses wifi. i am using the blackstar Rom right now. I like cm roms but i like yo use the s-pen. I guess i could flash a different Rom and see if this makes a difference. I don't use gps on a daily basis but when i use it i need it to work. I will be watching this thread closely.

Well after leaving my house GPS has ceased to function. Really starting to make me wonder what the actual issue here is. I'm guessing ROMs? Will just have to try a stock ROM later tonight. Weird how it works fine for some and not for others...like, what's the missing link here?

I was having the same issue, and slowly realized that the jb gapps was the issue for me. If I used the July gapps for JB it would get a signal and work, but if I used an updated version of gapps, it would not work. Might try installing the July JB gapps and see what happens. It only took me four days to finally figure out what was wrong, becuase it was working before the update to a newer gapps.
This is after 20 min moving around inside and outside.

So do you just have to NOT update them gapps then? I understand what you are saying...but Google Maps isn't even part of the gapps package. So what is updating in the gapps that breaks functionality?
