My 2013 has good days and bad days since Lolliflop, even with the cache cleared out very regularly.
It never missed a beat with KitKat, now it does my head in when you touch something on the screen and it sits there like it's using the slowest processor in the world with 500MB of f*cking ram.
Surely there must be some bug fixes for the OS out soon.

Chaps,
Is Kitkat generally the bestfor dunking into your mocha version for the 1st Gen Nexus 7?
Or is it worth trying one of the Cyanogenmod ROMs (latest stable seems to be 10.2 / 4.3). It's just for my old man's N7, which is getting a big laggy with 5.1 now.

Never had a problem with it.
Chaps,
My 2012N7 is still running KitKat but like an absolute shed. It hasn't been reset for a while so was going to do that this afternoon.
What's the best way of backing up - I was just going to copy everything off onto my PC, but draggin/dropping it just seems to stop after a few files, not sure why. Anybody else had this problem?

OK, I reset my 2012 N7.
It still runs like a shed! What is slowing it down? Haven't installed too much again, the GUI is really sluggish.
I am running 4.4.4
Have you been using something else as well, something newer that is faster and gives the impression that your N7 is slower and not as you remember it?It still runs like a shed! What is slowing it down? Haven't installed too much again, the GUI is really sluggish.

The only thing I've got on my Nexus 7 now is a Kindle App. It takes 10 minutes to start and then I'm lucky if it will actually open the app. Never again.
You probably have done a hard reboot using the power n volume button! Your memory in the N7 may be screwed and any reboot may not make any difference but worth a try! It does sound wierd! I here the Nexus 6 has great reviews I blame android and app writers make software for modern super cpu not good writing!https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
instructions how to roll back to kitkat
not too difficult I managed it in about 90 mins.

t that Google vomits out OTA or biting the bullet and flashing back to KitKat. I'll give it one more update. Gassing Station | Computers, Gadgets & Stuff | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
