@kugiigi so have you been able to reproduce this?
i am hoping the problem could be resolved soon, because i need to use alarms and reminders while also being able to occasionally look up information on the go
maybe you could tell me where can i see some logs related to it so i can try figuring out the reasons behind low performance?

@kugiigi stable, but all the other ones behave the same

@kugiigi yes, i have tried full wipe and reflash and it still doesn't help
i don't think this is a hardware issue since ut vivid and android run fine

@kugiigi i am using the ut installer
tried it from different computers running silverblue and opensuse, still run into the same result
i know the hammerhead is supposed to run ut well, i have been using it on vivid without problem, but when i installed xenial i noticed everything no more runs so well, even the ui is somewhat laggy, the frame drop is pretty noticeable where it wasn't present before

the issue is not present on 15.04, just confirmed it by downgrading
i like xenial more, where do i look to find the solution?

@tatayoyo if you prefer a home screen to be present, you can install one of the home screen apps from the store

@Keneda said in where are the homescreen and return button?:

even if i didn't even know before reading your post that N5 has 3 touch buttons lol

well, it actually does not
in android, virtual on-screen buttons are used

it seems like everything uses software for rendering, and the gpu is always idling
every application runs slowly and lags, drops a lot of frames, while cpu load is abnormally high
the web browser and any web apps are practically unusable due to this, any web page i open runs at like 5 fps
i've searched for this issue online but haven't found anything on it
after watching some youtube videos of how ut runs on the nexus 5 i think i am the only one to encounter this
is it a known issue at all, or have i run into some very specific configuration? it is like this on a fresh unmodified install too
