Hi,
I love my Nexus, but in my opinion there are to many lags. Do you think this will be better in the future? CM9? I hope!
CM9 + Overclock + Disable/Delete every possible app that the system doesn't absolutely need.

Too many lags? Seriously? Best phone ever for android. No sign of it slowing down either for me

I couldn't agree more. This is by far the snappiest phone I've used. And it's even better when rooted and running ARHD
Hmm if you think there is zero lag on this device then you are deluded
It's still awesome though and very snappy (generally speaking)
I hope at least of 8-9 months of top of the line support and proper updates to solve bugs/issues.

Hi all I'm still very new to this whole rooting stuff.
I'm using aokp build 38 this is the 1st Rom I've used
And lately I'm having a much better battery life than stock. But I just want to ask if there's a much better Rom out there that has great performance and battery.
Also could you name the Roms and what are so good about them?
Thanks in advance.

Everyone has a different opinion on this. There is no one rom that gives each phone good battery. Your best bet is to just try them out yourself.
Oh okay. Thanks what would you recommend?

I personally like liquid smooth ROM and Airkernel
I'd recommend the redemption Rom.
The Dev claims that he is only fixing errors created by Google.
Ans he's right. 2 hours screen time v 4 hours is the way to go.
It's also notably faster and doesn't randomly reboot to often.
He does a video changelog for his rom. Which I believe is a characteristic of a dev who is proud of his work.
But whatever you use. Use it for at least a week.
Would be good to also mention what phone model. Gsm,Verizon,sprint.
With these kind of threads, you might as well just ask what everyone's favorite ROM is or what ROM they're currently using. You'll only rarely get a different answer, and there are already threads for all three subjects to begin with.
Guy above me has a point.
But, AOKP B39 and Franco M4 works wonders for me.

Other than possibly in benchmarks, where's the performance difference between AOKP and CM9? I've tried both and currently run AOKP and I didn't notice any difference it performance between the two.
MCR from Paul Obrien over at Modaco. Together with the Franco kernel. Great performance and battery-life

I've bought and downloaded NFS Most Wanted from the Play Store on my Nexus 7, however, I have noticed that it stutters and the framerate drops quite considerably at some points.
Just by looking at the clock in the corner I can see that it is not running as fast as it should?
I am running AOKP Build-5 at the moment, with the AOKP Kernel, going to put on Franco.Kernel and see if that makes any difference?
Anyone else seeing anything like this?
I saw that many people talknig the same ..but i have no problem..PA rom with PA kernel 25-35 FPS.

This is only when you are nearing to roadblock, just slowing time to have easier to avoid the block. But it feels like a lag.

Because its populating the screen with more active police cars. That is what is causing the slow down. Its too many things for one core to handle which is why it lags.

Not if the game doesn't see it...
That is where optimization comes in most games are not ready for quad core chips. This is a prime example. Otherwise it wouldn't hesitate and would be be running smooth.

Surely there's a simple way to activate all 4 cores in the game? Maybe just one value in some game script somewhere?

Lollololololo NO.
Just wondering if upgrading from ICS (already rooted) is worth it to go to JB. The tablet runs real good in ICS with no issues. Apart from being new and possibly? with glitches/bugs is there any compelling reason to switch over to JB? Is the tablet smoother? Faster? etc.?

G2x-CM7 Nightly 11/18/12 Build, Trinity ELP Kernel
I made the jump to jellybean a week ago, and I have been very happy with it. I don't have any major reasons for the switch other than I was having some stability issues with 4.0.3 and Chrome. I first used pio's B2 build, and I didn't notice any issues other than no GPS and a minor clock display issue. I really want the GPS, so I just installed B1 and have not had any issues yet.
The benefits of project butter are evident and compelling.
So my friend and I were comparing our phones he has an iPhone, and my phone would do everything faster his phone just did everything smoother, mostly we checked how games ran, his phone in game options ex: scrolling through options and upgrades was way more smooth and responsive while mine had hiccups, gameplay was the same though, but I'm curious why the iPhone is smoother scrolling even outside of its ui into games while my Hercules beats it in specs?

Its not only hardware that determines how smooth it scrolls but also the software
In my opinion the reason I think it scrolls better has to do with apples memory management because it manages ram more smoothly so that's probably why
Also did you install custom kernel on your device?
Because if you did there would be no way you would lose

the only thing that i could recommend is for you to try lightning zap rom
also overclock to the fullest and put in performance mode!!!!!
Then also install the v6 supercharger but i think slimbean already has it so
i think im stumped on this one lol!
Lightening zap is a kernel. And as for performance once we officially get project butter everything should be fine then.

lol yeah i totally did a typo there but i meant kernel!

"The iPhone changed things by introducing a dedicated thread with high priority for handling UI rendering, redirecting all power (CPU and GPU) to handling UI element rendering in realtime based on touch input. The result? Smooth-as-butter UI elements, transitions and animations as soon as you touch the screen -- even on older hardware when paired with the latest iOS 5 software. The drawback: everything else, from app downloads to content rendering will pause so the UI can keep that high frame rate, high quality redraw pace."

I've tried every kernel for this phone and most ROMs and there are brief times when the smoothness matches the iPhone, but the consistency just isn't there..
Speed..well that's a different story there are some ROM/kernel/tweak combos that make this phone pretty darn fast

The t989 is faster than the iPhone 4s. Geekbench 2 proves that. But in terms of smoothness the iPhone will ALWAYS win. It's just the way Android is designed. iOS sets resources aside for UI transitions and whatnot and that's why you NEVER see an iPhone stutter and spurt like Android does at times. Give Android another year or so and this issue will be a thing of the past. Unfortunately the only way to resolve this with Android is better hardware... but it's coming!

Wow. I have the opposite experience. Touchwiz 4.0.4 spurts and stutters for me a lot. Add in the fact that it's nowhere near as snappy as AOSP 4.1 and I find myself constantly going back to jelly bean even though Touchwiz 4.0.4 gives me better battery life.

I'm still using jmtx1 even though there were is more current versions.
Even though ptmr3 said that adding the supercharge script was unnecessary I did it anyways just to ease my mind Lol I also added some of the battery saving mods from pmr...I keep my cpu set to ondemand/noop and slightly underclocked..and I am using the stock tw launcher ..
I think that some of the aosp ROMs out there may be slightly faster. but in my experiences they aren't as smooth as this one ..
Experiences may vary from phone to phone so there is no point in saying which ROM is better than the rest but I put my setup so someone can try it for themselves
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
well basically JB is the most stable ROM in my opinion that has the most support otherwise like ICS and GB don't have as much but i think that as soon as Ubuntu gets released the JB roms will be flowing like water but basically that also means that more roms will be smoother and remember that JB hasn't been officially released for our device so what there is currently is made by our awesome devs!
I am running CM9 but want an underclocked kernel for better battery life. What is the best kernel for our device running CM9 that promotes best battery life and where could I get it?

no offense, but it takes about 30 seconds to flash a kernel. Why don't you try a few and see which one works the best for you? Everyone's experience is going to be slightly different.
I flashed two different kernels before picking one, and after that I added some init.d scripts afterward that improved battery life over the stock kernel settings.

I would rather have stability than bleeding-edge any day! Contrary to my claim for the need of stability, I am going to give MIUI a shot. I tried it out when I had my G2x but there were some bugs that made that rom unusable as a dd for me. Hopefully my experience with MIUI will be much more pleasant with the S2!!
I'll flash the kernel later and see what happens. Even though I'll be giving MIUI a test run.... I always end up going back to Cyanogenmod. Always!

When I was running MIUI my only problem was not being able to shut off the capacitive lights. I had no problems with bootloops or anything of that sort.
I get bootloops and/or camera crashes with the latest JB MIUI and horrible call quality on my end with the last ICS based MIUI. It's odd that the call quality is fixed with the JB MIUI and busted in ICS, should be the other way around lol.
