This was just a thought but could the haptic feedback on the lockscreen cause some of the lag. As i have noticed on alot of devices haptic feedback can cause some lagging, now would it be possible to remove the haptic feedback from the lock screen, without it causing in other issues.

I never figured out a way to solve the lockscreen lag, but I just changed to a new lockscreen, Widget Locker, and it's considerably less laggy while being infinitely more customizable. You can add widgets and extra sliders (for camera, any other app). It's $2 on the market if you're interested.

The only thing I dislike about the blur interface is the bottom stuff switching to adore me what screen I'm on. Any way to disable, or decrease the time it shows?
I know this sounds stupid but just to mention that if you hit a blank area on the screen it will start the minimizing animation of the bar immediately instead of waiting for it to time out.
Quite honestly you should try a different launcher. I like ADW.Launcher. Many others around like Launcher Pro. You will find much more customization and features with those Launchers.
The only "problem" I have found is that some of the blur widgets don't play nice with ADW. ie, If I use any of the Blur widgets, I can't resize them. However, I don't really like any of the blur widgets and don't use them.
I've used all those launchers. Open home, dxtop, launcher pro, adw. I actually like the original on this phone except for that home screen bar thing.
I don't see a problem with blur now that i got used to it. Its great. If you hit the wrong thing and the switch bar comes up you have to wait a little over a second? Don't be. Impatient.

Kind of defeats the purpose of buying 1ghz phones doesn't it?
Let's just go back to 200 Mhz Arm processors and be patient
Battery will last longer I'm sure.
I know many people here have reported lag associated with the stock lockscreen that comes with the device. I was curious to know that if anyone has tried a new lockscreen and seen better results? Such as installing a vanilla AOSP lockscreen in place of the blur one and see if it makes any difference?
I dont know if the lockscreen is an actual .apk you can change out easily or not, as i have not poked around myself, but i do know that when i owned my incredible many people were switching out there sense lockscreens for vanilla ones and it didnt seem like a big deal
+1 for this question / desire. I too would like to switch out the lockscreen (and indeed some other APKs/items) for "stock" if possible...
Well, I'll tell you this. I use ADW launcher and have not noticed any lag at the lock screen. I've also seen others using custom launchers that also have said they notice no lag.
I've used adw and launcher pro and still have lag on the lock screen on 2.2

Go look up Widget Locker. It's a sexy lockscreen widget that removes lag COMPLETELY (it actually disables the android lockscreen and you use it instead. Works fansmic, allows tons of widgets on it, including shortcuts to your favorite apps fast, and security locks.
$1.99 in market - search widget locker.
The only thing with Widget Locker -- in my experience -- is that turning on the phone sometimes shows the default lockscreen for a second before fading into widget locker.
Does the home button bypass widget locker?

No lag using flyscreen either.

If you disable screen lock in Location & Security in the settings, you don't get that issue anymore.
I had the same gripe about it until I found that option to uncheck.

I didn't find the option to disable screen lock, but I turned it off using extended controls widget, which should have the same effect. Either way, thanks for the tip!
Not that this has anything to do with your op but htc does not make the droidx as per your signature. Thought you might want to know.

I don't have this option, but I downloaded "No Lock" from the marketplace and it works great with Flyscreen. (I'm using the Froyo leak posted recently)
for guys who have switched to CM7/miui or any other non-stock custom ROMS ,wht do u guys miss from the stock ROM??
generally LG widgets and App drawer..)
LG video player,
because other hw accelerated video players can play HD good on external screen, or projector, but subtitles are still shown on phones screen. Maybe this issue was solved since i realized it.
LG widgets
the last good thing on stock firmware. i like LG stock callendar.
LG calender widget!

the lockscreen
Tap to move cursor

The majority of things working (like the camera). I say majority because GPS is a bit buggered at the moment, and loses signal WAYYY to easily :-(
What I won't miss if I go to the dark side.. having plenty of spare RAM, but things like Dungeon defenders running like a dog randomly.
What I will enjoy.. ability to overclock when I need to
I stayed on a custom stock rom to keep the lghome, its the only app drawer that allows you to organize your games and apps into category's i cant imagine how anyone manages without that ability everytime i try and use a different home screen i end up uninstalling it because they are **** in comparison the only thing bad about it is its somewhat choppy and the screen on takes a while.

In order of importance:
Gestures
Dialer
Alarm Clock
Phone Book
I love the feel and speed of CM roms, but my phone is my main alarm clock and i couldn't live without "flip to snooze" andothe perks that come with gestures.
Also the smart dialer and the Facebook contacts integration in the stock Phonebook is very convenient for me. I could'nt yet replicate it in any other 3rd party software.
Stock Video Player, Stock Camera (this one has been ported), and LG's calendar widget

Most of those features are available in MIUI, I suggest you to try it if you haven't. As far as basic phone's features are concerned, MIUI has them covered very well.
Sadly it's not as smooth as CM is.

After searching for about an hour, If there simply no way to bypass the blur lockscreen and install the AOSP locksreen?
Widget locker ftw
#unseen
That's what I'm using now. But I don't like the amount of resources it takes up to do such a small job
you could try go locker from the gosms people.
Hello!
I recently downloaded the Next 3D Launcher and found it really nice and I really was considering getting its full version despite its unreasonably high price.
However theres a few annoying issues I faced. One of which was that the widgets I placed on the homescreen lags! One example was that when I was scrolling my notes on the notes widget, the scrolling was really laggy, it also happens to my other widgets such as my calender widget etc. Then I recall having the same issue long time ago when I was using the Go Launcher.
I am using a HTC One and yes I have tried checking and unchecking the Hyper fluency and System Persistent options where none of which helped making the widgets smoother. I also cleared my Sense homscreen already. Could there be anything else I could do to make scrolling through my widget smoothly in Next Launcher?
