G4 Lagging problems

[*justintime*]

I was wondering if other users can confirm.

The G4 is lagging when you wake it up and pressing the home button, when you are still in Facebook for instance
Also when screen is on and you are switching between large apps. it's lagging.

When you clear the apps....its much more snappier then. the difference is night and day.

Mine lags all the time. It's pretty disappointing. I also have a nexus 6, so much smoother then this phone. Also absolutely hate the lock screen. Can't wait till we get root and can run different Roms.

Yes it is indeed dissapointing... i did a complete reset. But still present.

Do you think it will be solved on a ROM? Dont you think the 808 processor is to "light"

The nexus has an 805. Figure the 808 should run better. Maybe just the LG skin making it lag. My daughters G3 has an 805 also rooted custom ROM. Doesn't lag as much as this phone.

Also notice touch sensitivity isn't so great. Its constantly missing taps here and there. Very annoying.

Mine misses taps every so often. I'm a little annoyed but I'm just gonna chalk it up to release software. I assume an update will come that will fix it. And once we have root and ROMs I'm sure I'll forget all about it. It's rough coming from a nexus 4 with a custom ROM that ran more perfectly than this one.

LG Tech Support informed me that there gonna be update that will kill all the lollipop issues, as well as fix some camera issues.

Yes also missing tabs on screen...

Camera issues? What is that? OIS?

I removed the sd card (because it is a Chinese Samsung card, think a clone) and it looks it's a bit better now... Still early concussion though.

Having owed a LG Optimus G, G2 and G3 I'm not surprised the G4 lags.

I don't get any stuttering or lag, but I use nova launcher. I only spent a few minutes with stock launcher. Stock launcher is slow and ugly.

Now you say.... I use the Blinkfeed launcher and everything is much smoother now.
Even with sd card.

Mine is lag during heavy gaming only. Overal performance is smooth.

Have you tried turning off Games Optimizer under Battery and Power settings?
May make a difference, but not sure as I do not do a lot of gaming.

I've noticed some "missed taps" while playing Pinball Arcade. Balls just roll down the left flipper because it didn't pick up a tap. Interesting that some of you are having this problem too. Do you think this is serious enough to return it? I know the knock code has its own quirks, sometimes it works and sometimes you're a hair too slow.

I have also noticed the lag when going to the home screen from Facebook. Not a major issue, but a little disappointing.

I haven't really experienced any lag but I have experienced web pages taking forever to render and also like when I open speed test app it takes forever to find a server on my Home wifi.. Anyone notice this

The 805 has a more powerful GPU than the 808. The fact the 808 is a "higher number" than "805" doesn't really mean much, even in Antutu the 805 scores higher than the 808.. That's why there is lag or framerate issues in games on the G4. Very strange decision by LG to go with the 808.

Hoping some new software will smooth things out. Hate to say it but even my nexus 7 2013 has smoother performance navigating ui. I don't play games so I have no idea what it does in that area.

The G3 had terrible performance but it was generally underpowered for the QHD display. Here's hoping it is software optimization but you have to look at the 808 also.

I thought there is no any kind of lagg in the G4... And where does it exactly occurs?

I guess they wanted the 64Bit checkmark.
I dont see any other reason. Same goes for HTC.

I dont know why Qualcomm tought it was a good idea to release the 808 and the 810 when they compare it to there older 805. That was a really good chip. Its not 64 Bit but performance is on par with the 808 and 810 because they have thermal issues.

The 808 is not bad. Its fast enough. But if there was a option i would take the 805 in a heartbeart. Hell i would even pick the 801 over the 808 or 810.

Lets hope the 820 with the new architecture will be a lot better. (but that should not be to hard)
