The WP 8.1 laggy experience when returning to start screen. Do you experience something similar?

[Makm]

Same problem here. (Lumia 520). I just wonder howw many time do i have to reset my phone ugh!! -.- This is so annoying!

 

[crimsonvspurple]

Remember, this is a stock Windows 8.1 experience with no optimizations. If you'd been around for Mango's developer preview, it was a million times worse.

I know but using a flagship (L1020), I expect a bit more...

Same here hope cyan update solve this. As cyan will optimize 8.1 according to our phone's hardware.

occasionally. it's frustrating!
Microsoft's 2 steps forward 1 step back update experience.
it better improves with Cyan

 

[DJRedLine]

It's full of lags now on my Lumia 920.

1/ Going back to home screen sometimes stutter
2/ Loading...
3/ Resuming...

I got Loading... on even built-in apps that never happened with 8.0 including Outlook, Calendar, Store, Music, Messaging, etc...

I get all of this on my HTC 8x. Weird it has only started to happen since the recent update for me though

Why don't people having problems go back to 8.0

Or read the forum where you will find loads of people without any problems because they of the way they installed 8.1

Its just some bug....keep calm nd wait for cyan...!!!

I'm having this perpetually on my Lumia Icon. I tried going back to 8.0, updating firmware, then installing dev preview - and doing a hard reset from most up to date build. Works perfectly for a few days and then constant "loading" and "resuming" when returning to start screen. Weird.

No solutions yet?

Rollback is impossible and You are somewhat right about the performance although you shouldn't expect a dramatic increase after cyan

Yes it is and many have gone back to 8.0

You can't expect a lot from Cyan but I think that it's gonna make it run smoother and You can roll back and here is a link http://wmpoweruser.com/how-to-downgrade-from-windows-phone-8-1-to-wp8-0-video/comment-page-1/

Nothing on my Lumia 820. It runs smoother as WP 8.

In my opinion Cyan's best benefit will be the optimization on the OS for battery usage.

 

[yaron zeevik]

I give my hopes to the cyan update

 

[Lance_WPCentral]

It happens on my phone too but not always, very rarely. I think the cyan update will be a medicinal cure for many of the issues we are facing. Currently our phones hardware is not 100% compatible with WP8.1. I wonder how much longer will Nokia take to push out the update.

My start screen lagged on 8.0 when returning to it. So that is not something new caused by 8.1.

 

[antu21]

I have lumia 520. Updated to 8.1. Having following things:

- 3 row tiles
- Every app and game on the tiles
- Background image for tiles
- Almost all space occupied in memory card as well as phone memory by apps and games.

Now I experience a great lag! :grincry:
Sometimes phone restart...many games lag, and whatsapp..well all knows about whatsapp

 

[c0wb0ycliche]

I can confirm that after unpinning Cortana a few days ago, I have not gotten the resuming or loading delay.

Me too. Not one time and it's been at least 3 days. It used to happen alot.

(I still have the delay when I go back to the start screen and can't do anything for a second or two sometimes but I had that even before 8.1.)
