I know. I've used all the custom roms on my gnex. Where on my gnex, 100 percent stock, had no lag. Multitasking was butter.

I'm not on stock now...but have been. Not sure what your frame of reference is...but guess it wouldn't hurt to ask....
When you say "multitasking lag", do you mean:
1. You've got a lot of apps running in the background that haven't forced to close...and you're lagging going from one to the other?
2. When you hit the home button it takes a second or two to get out of an app or back to the home screen?
3. You haven't task-killed anything and when you go to another program/app that's a little more intense, you get lag?

With maybe 3-4 apps running, and me the home button my multi tasking pops up but pops up in a slightly laggy way, and swiping apps away to kill them is also laggy, multi tasking in general is laggy. Everything else in the phone is smooth though.

Most people will notice that it seems to take forever to get the multi-tasking tray to appear when pressing the home button, not sure anyone has come up with an improvement as of yet though -

Mines smooth as can be takenit back try again u cant compare a gnex to this phone gnex is prolly the smoothest phone i have ever seen...the s3 will get there its still in infancy

Yeah I just love ICS so much to switch.

IMO ICS blows gingerbread away on speed...what r u talking about??
I've been lucky enough not to have the echo issues...i'm excited to see it developed more! My DD!
ICS was faster, but the tunnel-echo and lack of autorotate brought me back. That and I hate TouchWiz.
Dude jo problems at all here i get 20mbs n no echo...only rotation is bad but i can live without it...delete everything n i mean evwrything from the cell n try again or u can unroot your cell and root back with zedomax on youtube
, he says that hes new way to root doesnt affect speed....give a try ur fuk anyways withouts ICS

Yeah I had to come back to GB. The ICS ROMS aren't stable yet and the echo is a deal breaker, I use my phone and don't text everyone so I actually need it to work properly. If not then I would go with it. And battery is still not. Up to par with GB wince there is no proper kernel. Soon enough though.

Yeah I want back to gingerbread, for me the soft keys are a bit sticky, by that I mean that when I press them there's a bit of a delay to actually respond. They aren't as a fluid for me as gingerbread. I do love a lot of the features on ics but it doesn't cinvjb e me into sticking with it. The auto rotation may not seem like much bit it gets very a nothing at times

Any users coming from the Galaxy Nexus?

Hey, it's mod, and i was wondering if there is anyone who made the switch from the Galaxy Nexus to the Galaxy S III. If so, do you prefer it over the Gnex? Or do you miss AOSP Jellybean/ICS. I'm thinking of upgrading to the Galaxy S III off contract because of an issue my Gnex is having so any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Silly-ass bigot. Grow up little boy.
I am considering making the switch over. I love the GNex. Maybe I'm just a little bored with it? Though I do get bored with my phones easily.
The camera is making me want S3. And I also wouldn't switch over if there wasn't a good AOKP/CM10 ROM for the phone. I will likely get the S3, and then that same day install AOKP or CM10.
I made the switch from skyrocket...that's totally unrelated but I always used your ROMs M0D! Hope u decide to make the switch

Trying to get back on topic...
I had a Galaxy Nexus for a couple months on Verizon before switching to AT&T and getting the GS3. I figured if I didn't like it I could sell it and buy the GSM Nexus off contract. So far I'm happy with it. The two phones seem to perform about the same for me. The GS3 has a slightly faster processor and more RAM, but I think the difference between stock Android and TouchWiz balances out the better specs. I fully expected to flash an AOSP ROM shortly after getting the phone, but I actually like some of the feature of TouchWiz such as the quick SMS after hanging up from a call (I've always thought voicemail was silly). Battery life has been about the same, possibly a little better on the GS3. I'm assuming the larger battery is balanced out by having more processes running on the phone.
Overall, I'm happy with the decision to switch to the S3 instead of getting another Nexus. I love the inclusion of an SD card slot plus the larger screen. The only thing I don't like is the decision to use a physical home button. I'm fine with going with capacitive buttons instead of the navigation bar, but I don't like having a physical button apart from the power/volume. It's obviously not a big enough issue to make me regret the phone.

You forgot the camera. The difference is huge. There are some things I of course miss from my Nexus. But overall, the GS3 is the better choice for me.
i miss my nexus sometimes but i love my galaxy s3 and the camera is amazing on it compared to the nexus i just wish more ROMS would get released already for s3 thats why i missing my nexus i was a serious crackflasher lol
My S3 should be coming tomorrow. Really excited for it! I'm not a big fan of touchwiz tho and I really enjoy using Google Now and Jelly Bean. Do you think I should go straight to flashing aosp or should I hold off for something more stable?

Depends on if you can go without Bluetooth, and Camera and the other random things that may happen in your experience with it. But the new touch wiz isn't that bad so you may be able to deal until something stable drops.

Yes you guys are right. I flashed aokp today and its great, but not as smooth as on my Nexus. That'll get fixed right? I imagine so. I guess I'll go back to touchwiz and see how it is. Tho I really like Google Now. That's prolly the only thing I would really miss.

Lags

Hey. After I flash a new rom, the phone is super quick and respones very well. Buy after a few days, it starts to get laggy. When I am presaing the soft keys it takes a couple of seconds to respond, apps loading times can reach about 20 seconds, contacts loading too. I am using the GSM Gnex with CNA 3.8 rom and franco kernel r298. The lags occurred with XenonHD too. Dont get me wrong, I am not complaining about the developers, I am just trying to figure out if I am doing something wrong.

Are you rebooting your phone or just leaving it on for weeks at a time?
I remember someone saying it has to do with the zram optimizations in roms and kernels. at first it makes things faster and the the idea implemented is good in theory but over time it makes things unbearably slow. i dont know the technical reasons for this, someone with more knowledge than me may be able to explain it.

Obviously downloading from the Play Store is using system resources (RAM, a % of the processor etc.) so a slow down is to be expected.
The phone restarting itself =/= to rebooting it regularly. Just like your computer you shouldn't leave it running 24/7. Sometimes you just need to give your phone a restart.
I think the lags are related to the heatcof the Gnex. Maybe the my cheap case makes it worse. I will check without case so it have more contact with the air. I will report the results.

I've noticed the same lag after few days. It's really frustrating to see your phone very fast and then kind of choppy....

It looks almost like a memory leak. (That was a big problem on exynos devices runing cm10). It happened to me today (latest nightly cm10), Once my free ram was less than 100 mb the phone became noticeably less responsive.
Sane here!!! Thought it was just me... lol. I was running black bean baked! I love it but became super laggy! Almost threw it across my room lol. But just clashed slim bean and hope its bad ROM coding :-/.

I understand that custom roms do have great features but let me tell you something, after I switched from the S3 I decided not to flash any rom, I just used the nexus toolkit to root it and of course install franco kernel, since then the experience has been amazing, I'm just very careful with the apps I install, cheers!

I've experienced the same on about every JB setup I've tried. A reboot tends to purge assets and get me truckin' again for several days though.
I recommend keeping it stock you people, stock almost never lags unless u use the google+ app

Let me just chime in with the same advice as the previous poster: Try the stock rom. 99% of your problems will magically disappear.

Yup u are right. Many people used to tell that Franco kernel is the best and stuff but even that after using for a few days gets slow whereas in stock all that crap doesn't happen. I still use Franco because games work smoother on it compared to stock. Even the battery life is inconsistent. Just try stock after weeks and Franco right after a reboot still stock will be overall faster and smoother.

We won't have too many ROM options, besides AOSP and TouchWiz, until CM10 is officially released. It's out for the international version, but only time will tell how long it takes to reach our version of the device.
If you want to take a giant risk, go ahead and flash ParanoidAndroid for the international version, but it'll probably hard-brick your device.

Hard Brick? If this were Wikipedia I'd tag that with [Citation Needed]
I agree it will probably make it non-functional, but I find it hard to believe it's something that restoring an original sprint partition wouldn't fix.

Maybe so, but I've heard stories of people hard-bricking their devices by flashing kernels made for different devices.
If anyone really wants this type of ROM, go to TMO GN2 forums and look at DaGR8s ROM. Or join #saurom on freenode. I asked if he could bring it over but he would rather have me maintain it but I know zero when it comes to modifying stock roms, smali, etc lol.

No offense, but I don't understand what you're asking. I say this because Android 4 is the same on phones and tablets. I have ASUS Transformer Infinity (TF700T) and this phone, and both are running Android 4.1. The difference are more device specific about screen size and particular hardware.
The mods I've seen are more about squeezing more functionality out the device, such a WiFi tether and mutli-app. They don't bring a more tablet experience than what the device already is in my use thus far.

Your cruelty knows no bonds. Making me search, LOL. Took me a while to find something that showed it. Most just videos on found on Youtube left in the ROM(s) in phone phone mode. This one showed it best that I was able find first.
But yes, I get it now. The sad part, only a few apps I use really have tablet interfaces. I like a similar interface across devices if possible. Although, it would be nice if K9 had a tablet UI. But I digress....
Haha sorry.

I like the idea of picking some apps to use in Tablet form. NFL Game Pass has a good tablet app; but I believe it's designed for 10" tablets, not the small ones such as Nexus 7. I like Chrome's interface on the tablet over the phone as well.
I have the ASUS Transformer Inifinity. Needless, some apps are interesting with their user interface.
Unfortunately, most apps on Android are still designed for the phone interface. As Android tablet get more popular, we'll see design interface incorporate the larger screens.
At the moment, I'm just happy to have a larger screen so I can see without having to zoom everything.
I hear ya but im constantly in settings and everywhere else hitting the back button a lot. Would be nice to have it all on 1 screen. Im gonna try and port PA. I would of bought or stayed with my evo. I want to see just how far I can take this lil big thing.
Was at wedding Saturday night and whipped it out & the table was in ahh at phone. Mostly iphoners. They were jaw dropped. Just wish I had hybrid mode to make them faint. Lol

I tried talking to the developer of PA, and all he said was to wait for CM10 to come out.

My coworker saw my GN2 and I heard a "GOD DAMN!!!!" Another coworker (Sprint GS3) and I like to tease another about his iPhone4 since he complains a lot about it.
Yea, the settings is a nicer setup on my tablet. Switching tasks is a lot faster too. I just hit one button instead of holding it down. But I like this phone's recent task list. It actually closes the programs. I really like the clear memory option too. Why they can't incorporate a clear cache, is beyond me, but something I would like in that menu area.
Im so impatient. I want to buy n7100 just to flash it. Lol but I guess I'll have too

Lag?

Anyone running stock. And getting lag? Idk why but sometimes when I text or do something I get a lot of lagggg and it pisses me off -___-
Sent From Land Of Ooo.
I thing the most lag I have experinced on this device is 2 seconds at most (outside of network switching from 3g to 4g)

Then im guessing what can it be.? I texted and I get a lot of lag. Unless its all the uccw widgets I have o.o
Sent From Land Of Ooo.
I experienced some lag a little while ago and I figured out that it was only really happening with my messaging app. I figured out that I didn't have the "delete old messages after so many" checked and I had accumulated a rather surprising amount of texts! After I fixed that, my phone went right back to normal. Might not be it for you, but that helped mine

the stock tmobile rom is slower than the n7105 roms and check if battery saving mode is on

Get an app like history eraser and erase all cache. Helps a lot.

Its lagging really bad. Even on my lock screen the ripple thing lags -____- it sucks.
Sent From Land Of Ooo.
I would suggest pull the battery for 30 seconds, reboot see if that helps, if not verify the rom/kernal/modem are all compatible with each other or even update to latest versions... if thats ok and still laggy then reflash your preferred rom/kernal/modem(be careful with the modem part and try leaving this alone if at all possible, as youve probably read the horror stories)... let us know if you have any success

Well im not rooted so that cant be it. But after messing around with it I got to the conclusion that UCCW was the one that was giving me lag. Since in the past in my s2 I would get apps that would lag the phone even if it had a custom rom and kernel. So I installed uccw and it stop? Ill play with it more later after work. Since I need my uucw >.> thanks guys.

My locl screen lags a lot I don't know why. I unlocked a s3 with ripple effect n it was nice. My note 2 "better than s3" can4 even do that...;/
Sent From Land Of Ooo. Using My Note 2.
If im not mistaken, our phone has that ability already (not sure which one exactly but I have seen it somewhere), but ots really just going to take time.... put it like this, the longer devs are working on our phones the better, it just takes time. S3 has no where near the challenges of this phone, nor the potential, plus all the extra time they have had... not to mention, you could always ask the dev to put it in (good luck waiting for samsung to unroll, whether customers demand it or not)...

Well thats true. Are phones are better but idk why I get lag in the lock screen only...oh well. I just got the phone and its stock. But ill just get used to it. I alqays wanted this phone
Sent From Land Of Ooo. Using My Note 2.
How long is the lag... outside of a couple seconds (which if you understand governor processes, and how many step intervals our quad processesor mandates) than nothing is outta the ordinary... everything will improve... infact custom kernals already better that process, which is why rootibg to atleast try an uptodate stock rom/kernal or even modem flash is suggested... if after all thes things your phone still has issues than it is indeed defective and worth replacement

Ive rooted other phones...the fact that this phone is 800$ keeps me away from doing it. I have rooted it once. Came back to stock. I didnt install any rom since ive read that u lose IMEI and things like that...but idk the lock screen it doesnt lag its the ripple like it kind of lags when I touch it. Or when I unlock it. It doesnt show like the 3 water drops ripple or moves with the finger. It stays were u 1st place the finger and thats it. Its weird. Idk how to explain it xD. Sorry. But ehh its kwl. Lol.
Sent From Land Of Ooo. Using My Note 2.
Only time ive really heard about people losing imei and things like that are with people that:
A) flash a non-TMobile rom (or "non-ported rom")
Jedi X series, (not to be confused with the Jedi Master series), is a direct GN2 port (from att I think) made for the TMO GNII. Why, you ask? Jedi X series is based off 4.1.2 (which TMO has yet to release)
Jedi Master series is 4.1.1 (based off "pure, but debloated with better kernal" TMO version, ETC)
B) Messed up while changing the modem during rom install. Like with a rom that "updates the modem" or aroma-like installer of modem
C) phone-unlocking mishaps (ie nothing to do with root, recovery, rom flashing)
D) and then even people who "forgot they were in a different carrier/phone thread and, repeated the same mistake as those outline in A...
Since you already rooted once, I bet you that if you follow all the proper steps (and even, like me, dont even "do a efs/nv/modem/imei backup" other than through CWM/TWRP) and flash Jedi Master 9 or even a ported4TMO Jedi XX, you will not lose anything and that "LAG" problem goes away... BET

Some roms do auto flash modems and even if it doesnt , but its made for a different carrier, you might screw up your phone (bork?), especially without a backup of originals...(yet even without a back up, others have still been able to solve this problem)

Okay. What if I wanna flash this rom right here.?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987634...
What would be the steps to not screw up the phone. I know ill have to root again and then install (twrp which is the recovery I used to use in my s2) then make a nandroid? <<<just in case. The download rom and use directions has in OP. No need to flash anything other than that?
Sent From Land Of Ooo. Using My Note 2.
Yes sir... when flashing, use the aroma installer one (1g download, not the 700m) so you can be sure the modem isnt touched... also aroma allows for more customization... enjoy
