OTA 4.2 has less lag than 4.2 AOSP

I had done the flash AOSP 4.2 on top of 4.1.2 yakju, had problems of lags in transitions and everything.

So restored to stock 4.1.2 takju (wug nexus with root toolkit), I installed my apps again, I connected my bills, put my music and photos.

Thereafter updated via OTA to 4.2 (received notification of update) and now I do not see many lags. The camera continues, but according to the android dev, is to work this way.

In short, it may seem strange, but upgrading to 4.1.2 via OTA to 4.2 I see almost nothing lags.

And from what I read here, the staff had more problems lags did flash the rom AOSP 4.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jadephyre:
It's running fast & stable without a problem.

Apex Launcher crapped out on me when I reinstalled it through the Play Store, but that was due to an incompatibility of Apex which was fixed a few hours later by the devs.

Any one have problem with ram ? My ram always is full but with 4.1.2 my free ram always be 350 mb .

Sry for my en.

I have had a few re-boots. But what was even more wierd is sometimes my APNs dissapear! A reboot corrects this....but anoying!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
4.2 Yakju here, i dont know if i will encounter any bugs but this update is bullet fast not a single stutter yet, not in recent apps, lockscreen, not even in this tapatalk app that used to be stuttery, and this is not perception, this is fast

And luckily bluetooth works, im gonna hope this update continues to be this good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lqaddict:
How about camera portrait/landscape rotate? Lock screen to camera swipe and take picture - any delay there?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
Lockscreen to camera is fast and smooth, no delay while taking pics, rotation delays the first time after i open the camera
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thegodfather156:
i dont have the thick hours on my lockscreen clock. only the slim numbers on the hours. irritating me. anyone else with this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ryanherbert:
I have issues with Notes not remembering my password. If I put it in, it'll resync, but it forgets it again a few hours later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] syspanic:
The camera lag is really annoying. There isn't any fix for this so far?

Also, I think it's a little bit slower than 4.1.1. I mean, the transitions and animations isn't so smooth as used to be.

And the lock screen it's much worse imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Roism:
My issue with 4.2 on rooted galaxy is that the Bluetooth does not turn on. Any one knows of a solution. I am able to slide it to the right but it refuse to stay there in order to turn on bluetooth.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
Camera (rotate?) lag is intentional.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] odLott:
Went back to 4.1.2. Everything started working again, but now it's nagging me every 5 minutes to update. Argh, you can't win.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
So… I OTAed to 4.2 and guess what? It’s good. Yes, I have the camera rotation lag—yes, I have the missing month (this will be fixed), but, outside of this, everything seems a little smoother/faster and I’m pleased with the update overall. No reboots (at least not yet!), no random screen turning on as others have reported and no Wi-Fi issues (outside of 5GHz never working, but it’s been this way for a while).

That said, yes, the hour on the lock screen is ugly—actually the whole clock app reeks of beaten with the forest ugly—clearly, this was an ill-conceived programmer decision as a designer would have never let this repulsive clock app fly (hopefully this is not a sign of more bad aesthetic decisions to come).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
The clock looks cool to me, guess i have bad taste then
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atekihcan:
Updated my yakju to 4.2 OTA just a few hours ago and thinking of going back to 4.1.2.

Here goes my rant (which is more or less summary of this thread :p)...

I hate the new lock-screen. It sounded so better in theory, but the implementation is disappointing beyond imagination. Why does those rounded corner rectangle sides show up? Why there is a dotted circle at the bottom of the lock-screen just to open Google Now? What was wrong with the earlier method? And why the hell clicking on the clock area does nothing but zooms it out (and grays it) and focus shifts to the lock? And the lock-screen widgets are well... I don't like them. At least give me the option to disable them.

The clock. It makes me cry. Although the analog clock is a lot better than the 4.1.x clock, the digital is really ugly. That font is visually abusive if used in bold. And what's with all the red? The second hand of the analog lock, the "ALARMS", "CITIES", "SETTINGS" captions in the clock app? Why they are in red? What was wrong with JellyBean blue? And what is that font used in cities list? Y U no maintain some consistency in design, Google!

Each time it vibrates when there is a new notification. First I thought, Llama is not working. Then after going through this thread...

The portrait-landscape rotation is irritatingly laggy. Seeing that they changed the settings button to a white circle, I thought it was because it won't have to rotate separately. but no, they are doing it full-screen!

And December is missing. Like a lot of people I was thinking that may be Google will will fix this thing and release the update for yakju.

I haven't experienced any noticeable lag in other aspects. But I'm a bit picky about how things appear so I'll probably go back to 4.1.2 solely for the lock-screen and clock. I can live with the other things but those two makes me hate my Nexus. However, I'll miss the gesture typing. For me, it is the only useful feature of 4.2. I'll miss photo-sphere too. I sincerely hope that Google will fix some of these in 4.1.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donovanchan:
I feel fine with the rounded corner rectangle and dotted circle at the bottom. It tells there are lock screen widgets on both sides, and Google Now can be access through dotted circle.

You may go back to 4.1.2 and just install gesture typing and camera app, so you can enjoy these 2 new features and stay away from those annoying bugs and features.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arndale:
I also have a rooted Galaxy and exactly the same problem. I've tried rebooting and also pulling the battery for a while, along with various other suggestions from other sites such as turning location services on and off.

Any other suggestions on what to do would be greatly received.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sagiballs:
The lock screen is a big bag of balls. Swiping left to get to my camera is a million times worse than the previous wheel. I have no use for the other widgets, AND they are SO limited. It now also even stuffs up the stock music player on the lock screen. Back to the old way!

That being said, 4.2 is super smooth, feels slightly faster? (very subjective), battery life is a bit better

but dat lockscreen. it's so bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viktorlj:
Try to unlock 4.1 with left hand :) This 4.2 lock style button makes more sense.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sagiballs:
yes, you use your left hand, and swype to the appropriate section of the wheel. very simple. not sure why you had such difficulty. are you missing a thumb or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
This :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atekihcan:
I know but I feel they are totally redundant. There was no need for that extra dotted circle. They could've placed the Google Now on the top of the lock circle as it was before. The lock screen was clean and simple. Now it looks so disorganized.

That's what I intend to do. Is android keyboard part of gapps?

I feel the same man!

Anyway, I guess developers has the option to enable widgets for lock-screen for their apps. See this (h**p://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#lockscreen)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Raijin:
If you want to stay in 4.1.2, you'll need to modify system/build.prop to get rid of the OTA notification every 30 minutes. This can be made with Root Explorer for example.

Good day. I received yesterday (20.11) via OTA JB 4.2 to yakju. Everything went well during installation. I noticed a slight lag in the camera app but that's okay. However I can not change the lock screen. I unlock the screen with sequence and can not even remove the screen lock method or change it, just do not have those options in menu!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] keeper_mk:
I'm experiencing random reboots on my galaxy nexus after OTA update to android 4.2. I can't find any reason for theese restarts. I did a factory reset but the problem remains. Any idea why is this happening?

DUH! My mistake. I get it.

Lotus Traveler on Android 4.2

I have been having the same issue and have raised a ticket with IBM. It typically happens when the device has been powered off and on again. I suspect that a change within the encryption module may have broken Lotus Traveler.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cikasfm:
This did fix the issue, thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hellraizerN7:
Google services is killing my batteries (GN and N7). More specifically - location services. No I don't have ANY new apps isntalled since updating. Tried AOSP and OTA roms , same error, factory reset doesn't help. Treid multiple wifi connections...

Have the same issue on the Nexus 7 after updating so it can't be a device issue. Exact same error on two devices with the same apps as on 4.1.2, apps that didn't cause those problems on 4.1.2.

Google Now is unusable and disabled for now, I can't have the device drain 20-30% of battery in standby.

4.2.1 can't come soon enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] newguyhere:
Im not sure where i should post this. But this is my issue,

I use a #jz054k galaxy nexus with radio XXLF1. Yakju i believe. Its unrooted and locked. I havent recieved the OTA update yet. I have tried force stopping google service framework but with no success. Am i missing something? I have next to no technical knowledge. I would like to thank you all in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fulanito01:
Last night my phone was fully charged before I went to sleep, so I unplugged it for the night. Woke up with 80% battery left (after 8hrs of no use) and the screen was responsible for 55% of that drain. This was the last straw. I broke down and did a factory reset (since my gnex is stock and unrooted), and so far this seems to have resolved my screen wake issues on 4.2, and I no longer feel like yelling at my phone. The data loss as a result will be well worth it if the screen wake issue is gone. Will report back if the problem returns.

====================

Correction...is after click on the photo sphere icon, once you touch the screen will result in FC...

Never happend before 4.2 :rolleyes:

I hope they will release a fix very soon...

Try disabling Location reporting in Maps -- Settings -- Location settings. Also turn off location history and see.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foghelmut:
Since updating to 4.2, whenever I am downloading large files, or multiple files on my phone on my home WiFi, something happens that kills my router. This didn't start until I updated to 4.2 and is fairly reproducible. I don't even know what would cause this, but it kills my router and I have to reboot it to get WiFi going again. It's the stock Fios router/modem.

I'm probably going to flash back to 4.1 because this is ridiculous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Wow good catch - I just tried this on MMuzzy's latest nightly and get the same insta-crash. I don't know if I'll ever be pinch-zooming that furiously but it's a little disconcerting to see 4.2 so full of holes after how well put-together 4.1.2 was.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atekihcan:
Black bar on top of browser in full screen mode showed up finally and it is permanent.

Found another bug...

In stock messaging app, open a message and while the text box is activated i.e. the keyboard is up --> Press the power key to lock the phone -> Press the power key again -> And we have the back button sitting on the lock-screen! Facing down! Doing nothing!

Even keep pressing on it. It won't do anything but it'll register the button press and eventually the screen will go to sleep.

having the same issue here (also happens with voice chat). Im running PA 2.99+1, had the same problem with first PA 2.99 preview.

clearly it's the apps problem. i was thinking it was PA's problem or even AOSP, but i guess it's just another 4.2 bug.

anyone else with this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ad astra:
stock rom? i'm running on PA 2.99+1 and cant replicate your issue.

even tried pairing and un-pairing my blutooth keyboard, for no avail.

i sugest you try another rom. you could also try resetting the blutooth app via app manager.

I have the black screen of death issue with stock 4.2. Sometimes the screen goes blank (like a dark Grey back light), the phone is still on, but I can't get into it anymore. It registers touches etc, just the screen doesn't get back.

Flashed clean stock Image, factory reset and data restore.

Only battery pull helps. Happens 1 or 2 times per day in various situations (texting, browsing, whatsapp). Luckily I don't have any of the other 4.2 problems, except the missing December in Contacts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
Well, I’ve been running this for over a week now and have only found two real annoyances:

Turn-by-turn navigation speech is VERY fast—the woman that speaks the navigation speaks so fast I can barely understand her now ;(

I frequently click the top of Gmail to quickly switch between labels and this now lags about 1-1.5 seconds every time I click the top label. This lag is quite annoying because I frequently switch between labels to quickly scan/jump through my mailbox and now this regular process for me has become slower and less productive.

Damn you regressions! Anyone else have these issues? I couldn’t readily find similar posts on these annoyances.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MenaMAKS:
I find it strange that I am the only one who finds this. I was yakju user and flashed the takju factory image after waiting for the OTA for 2 days. I noticed all the following. Flashed back to yakju and still the same...

1- Menus are lagging a little bit.

2- Skype does not detect ongoing calls anymore. If I am making a skype call I have to lock the screen manually because it does not detect my face coming in contact with the screen. This messes everything up.

3- Yesterday while sleeping someone rang me over skype and the screen stayed on till the battery went out.

4- I used to have an app to click and lock the screen. After the new update locking screen animation is very laggy. I had to remove any app that does the trick and use the hardware button.

Random shutdown, battery drop - Nexus stock 4.2

1. Facing this issue a number of times per week.

The phone was fully charged and kept as it is. Saw the charge left as 95%. After few hours of no activity on the phone, I try to unlock and find that it has switched off. Power button press won't start the phone. Had to take out the battery and put it back and then on power button press, phone starts.

Checked the battery level and found that there was a vertical dip of battery level from 84% to 0 and it was like that - till i booted the phone again.

After boot, again the battery level shows at 83%!

This sudden drain of battery to 0 although when phone was sufficient amount of charge has been happening quite a number of times.

Please see this screenshot. Is this due to a bad battery or my phone is "dying"!

2. When the phone is in sleep mode, sometimes the touch is not recognized in the lock screen.

Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MondoMor:
Same here, though less often (GSM). Never happened to me until 4.2. I have never unlocked or rooted this phone, and have not yet attempted a factory reset. Usually, the display goes to full-brightness for a few milliseconds before going black.

I am able to power it off, even with the blank screen, so the battery pull isn't required. I press the power button once to lock, press again to bring up the unlock screen, slide right to unlock and long-press the power button. The bibration tells me when the shutdown menu is up, and I've gotten pretty good at pressing the "SHUT DOWN" button (it's across from the midpoint of the volume rocker) on the menu without being able to see it.

Glad I'm not the only one! :cool:

Hi guys

I faced a serious issue on my 2 days usage of my new Gnex.

It is all about battery! It really super super super discharged from 40% to 25 or 15% and suddenly device shutdown!

I tried 3 different 4.2 roms of course with different kernel but problem is same!

Any suggestion?

It seems i should open a new thread for this one... :(

Just received the 4.2 ota just now but too scared to installed it as there seem to be widespread issues concerning this version. Will have to wait for the next major fix not even the 4.2.1 as this only seem to resolve issues with BT and December month not showing in People's app. Also, if i don't update to version 4.2, will I receive the next PTA update? Btw I'm on stock 4.1.2 (always been on stock), yakju variant and never rooted. Can anyone confirm if owners of the GNexus devices having said issues are mainly on stock version of the OS right from the start or custom ROMs? And if their devices have been changed ie radios being flashed or changed from takju to yakju and vice versa. Basically, devices being altered in any way. Thanks.

It's not just camera rotation lag - the bar allowing you to digitally zoom is missing. How do I do that in the new camera app? Am I just supposed to crop afterward instead? Any way to get the old camera app back?

I am having the EXACT same problem. I went to 4.2 via jellybro CM10.1 and also flashed Trinity kernel... previously, I was keeping pretty up-to-date on CM10 offcial nightlies with whatever kernel they packaged in there.

Sometimes it'll happen while sitting in my pocket and sometimes it'll happen as I'm halfway done entering my PIN for Wallet in line at Sunoco. Either way, the phone doesn't start again w/o a battery pull...
