Smoothness

Hey guys
I just got my Nexus yesturday and previously I had the Galaxy S2 and I was expecting the Nexus to be AT LEAST as smooth but its far from it. I only changed the kernel on my previous phone and its a lot smoother when scrolling web pages Facebook twitter etc... than the Nexus.
Has anyone noticed his? Everybody keeps saying how smooth and fluid it is but even the launcher I find lags in its transitions.
Is my phone the problem or what? Tonight I'm going to install a kernel a maybe a diffrent rom to see if it improves but so far I'm really not impressed.
Normal or not?
Btw I'm running 4.0.1

From what I've found I think 4.0.1 is the culprit of the problem.

It is and has been talked about many times already. Thats why I posted what I did previously. Not trying to be an arse but jeez...use the search function for crying out loud. All of these "I thought the gnex should be" threads are getting old.

I tried searching and looked thru the first 3 pages didn't find anything. I wasn't sure either of what to type in for the search. I tried speed smoothness and nothing came out.

Yea u need to root and get 4.0.3 installed, smooth as butter, and by the way I'm a s2 owner also

Well... In some cases the Nexus S is smoother.. actually it's smoother in all cases except for 1080p videos and some web browsing.
I expect it to improve with time though.
Same thing happened to the nexus s right after it was released.

is that 4.0.3 stock or do you use overclocked/tweaked kernel and custom rom?

4.0.3 stock doesn't exist. You can only get a 4.0.3 ROM for the time being.

Try swapping in the exynos processor.
That should do the trick.

So basically after reading that, this means that due to the higher resolution the GN will always have a slower not as smooth UI? Damn this definately doesnt sound good.
Ill try with a new rom and kernel tonight and if it doest help, looks like my GN will be up for sale.
I happen to like my devices with an eye candy smooth UI.

WOW, really? You are going to ditch on one of the best overall devices on the market because of a slight hitch? By all accounts 4.0.3 takes care of it anyway. No phone is flawless but this one will be supported by Google and get updates for at least 18 months. But ya, loose the phone with the best screen on the market and the latest OS... ;-) spoiled

On many apps.....the slowdowns may be attributed to ICS incompatibility. More specifically, inability to utilize the hardware acceleration the GN pocesses. Go to settings, then Dev tools and turn on Force GPU Rendering. That should help with many incompatible apps that are running poorly. At least until the app is optimized for ICS and its capabilities.

You're messing with my zen thing, man !

When I pay a cellphone 600$+, and expect the "best" Android phone out there, I want it to AT LEAST be smooth and look good. Because what's that "best screen on the market" for?! To have a peak of all that eye candy. Now, part of eye candy for me is the smoothness of the UI.
Now that it doesn't bother you guys, that's fine, but it does bother me!
I'm not even talking about the cheap built quality, no Gorilla Glass, poor battery life etc...
I was expecting a lot more coming from Google and especially for the amount of money they want for cellphones nowadays.

Even after we told you the problem and how to fix it, you're still complaining.
Here's what you do (hopefully you read this part):
1. Return the Gnex
2. Use the $600 to buy yourself a white and a black 4S

[ROM][Blended] GB Rocket - GS2ET - Abridged version

Hi fellow XDAers,
It have been picking the best of both working Droid roms that has come down lately from Sprint to get phone in working order.. Instead of working from ICS backwards, I've worked GB forwards on the main parts... Forgive the choppy sentences... Not enough coffee yet lol
1. Odin'd back to EL29 OTA proper and rooted. Which rebooted.
2. Odin'd the FF18 modem. Rebooted.
3. Re installed a few utilities - ghost commander, quick reboot, Ti (to pull zipped apk's of the better parts of ff18 and email them to my laptop. whet I plan to integrate them. Also planning to do the same once I get the GB portion s downloaded)
4. Integrate into new ICS or JB stock ota
So far got 1 & 2 completed. Running to the hospital for a bit to visit my mom and then have to do some house work (a woman's work is never done.... I hate cleaning! lol)
Then back to my geekdom (for world domination (j/k))
And see if I can make headway on next items..
Screen print attached.
EDIT: speed test, battery shots jusy attached

Not so much a ROM but more a back-working of ICS to see where its breaking down. Consider it a "Bandaid" to transitional development towards ICS.

No, i'm not releasing it as my own ROM... That would be illegal, now wouldn't it... Please read the entire thread. I am reverse envineering it to make it work with what was stable in GB EL29. And thought I would share to be kind to the other SSGS2ET owners who just got screwed by sprints preemptive release of ICS 4.0.4.
If a Mod want to change the title and remove the word ROM that's fine by me.
I'm just trying to give a hand.

Thank you!! See there is a voltage issue that keeps turning off 4G when on wifi... There's also a runaway program that i'm still trying to find and change the timing on so it doesn't use up the battery and there is also something that prevents reattachment to Ti for one thing and that its goggles fault for changing the key with every install... Most apps can handle it but there are slot that don't recognize the phone and creates a problem especially if you've paid for it... its the guts basically that is causing the problem sort of like crossed wires throwing voltage.
Hope this helps, and when I get a chance, I will write a proper dissertation for those that don't unbend and insist on flaming me.

This argument should really be handled with PM's, not in somebody else's thread. I try my best not to get in the middle of things, but this is getting ridiculous. If you don't agree that it's development then report the thread and let the mods decide, don't attack the OP's spelling and time with XDA.
My Wicked Sensations rom is one of the roms that people are referring to as more of a theme and not development and I agree with them. But every phone section has themed roms just like this section. I don't consider myself a developer, and I have stated that on many occasions. I just try to share something that I like with others. But I do respect everyone else's work and don't insult it. If I don't like it, I move on.
So please respect somebody else's thread and don't trash it up this way.

I've cleaned this thread. However, it will remain closed for now. "Placeholder" threads are not allowed. As you probably seen why. Once a download link is provided and verified, then it will be opened.
Until then, I'm serious about what I said when I talk about it spilling over. Vacations will be handed out (again) if it continues. I don't care who you are, how many times you have pm'd me, how cool you think "you and me" are. Rules are rules.

Are you streaming music via Bluetooth? What ROM?

I've tried about 15 ROMs to figure out which ones are working with BT streaming music (Pandora, 8tracks etc) to my jay bird blue bud x head phones. I'm getting different results but its only stable on touchwiz ROMs.
I've checked out 12/26 cm which supposedly had working BT but couldn't flash it to my t999 as it was for att phones.
I read a post that fixes the BT issue by moving some files around which I have not tried yet.
So far(update):

I'll send you a link of a a BT fix that is just a patch not a whole rom, are you on a AOSP based rom now?

I stream music non-stop all day sometimes
While rooted and un-rooted
I use LG's HBS-700 Bluetooth Headset
A cool thing about this headset is it will pause the music when u get a call or send a text

Does the stock equalizer work outside of the music app? Using DSP manager on cm was nice because it changed the sound for speaker and Bluetooth as well as music streaming from apps like 8tracks

That it doesn't, just for music in the app. I've never actually used BT in any form at all. I usually just remove it from /system lol. Dead technology for me.

I'll download the ROM and test it out. Haven't tried that one.
Main issues are Bluetooth either won't connect or only connects for a few minutes. Quality is fine. But after those first few minutes there will end up being 6 Bluetooth processes open that drain power and consume so much of the CPU power that the phone becomes unresponsive until I reboot.

The creator of the rom RomanBB Is one of the main reason AOKP exist, along side with Whitehawkx and many others. They don't usually post builds here on XDA and I came across this build somehow. Either way, I've flashed it and it is running great on my end, so far.
This is no longer just a RomanBB build, this is an AOKP nightly, even though it's every 3 days or so it seems.
It has the latest kernel (3.4.41) and is so far running great for me.

Just wondering if anyone knew that Roman was building AOKP builds for D2TMO? I'm sure no one does cause his upload for today only has 8 downloads. Anywho, he's one of the top devs for AOKP and is pretty good at it too lol. I'm not flashing this as I'm sure most of you know I test for DeviantXone so I'm busy enough... If you guys want here it is report your findings and I'll update this as needed if it happens to blow up... So long as he nor the mods care... If so I'll report this to be shutdown.

I agree that RomanBB does excellent work. He was my favorite dev for the My Touch 4G Slide before he sold it and we lost arguably the best dev we had for that device. Thank you for sharing!

He's one of the main Devs for aokp lol, not only does he compile it, he is one of the main contributors for AOKP being among android lol.

Thanks for this! Do you know of a change log anywhere? I'd like to see how it differs from mr1.

I don't at the moment. If I can come up with one when I make it back to my PC I will post it, but I doubt there will be one. If anything, I can follow the gerrit and github and report what I find for noticeable changes.
Would really help if there was any feedback lol.
1. Battery charge state
0-14: red
15-69: orange
70-99: yellow
100: solid green
2. What I think I read, LED brightness can be altered wtihin ROM control.
3. Multiple camera bugs fixed
4. Updated kernel
....all assumption with in the build, I might flash it to confirm things later tomorrow night after work, if I have the energy...

Thanks so much man. I followed roman since the Sgs days. He and his partner (whitehawx) who is also one of the main contributors to aokp were my favorites. When the gnex first came out they jumped ship and went there. I loved aokp on this phone but never felt the actual quality that roman would out into his ROMs. Not sayings others haven't done a great job but his roms are the reason I started rooting in the first place. He's got awesome codjng skills. Anyways. You made my day with this post.

Cool man, I'm almost positive he and WhitehawkX are the reason AOKP happened. Not positive though.

A long time ago I known the posted non rootzwiki but dont they have a separate aokp site where this ROM is posted with change logs and discussion. I know xda really killed it for them. Eugene 373 also was/is a great dev. Knows his stuff and was able to crank out some awesome things. Also got killed by xda drama. Don't know if he still posts on these forums anymore

Agreed, he tried it once again on this forum and it just failed. Too bad but sometimes it happens. Glad I stumbled upon it though lol. Any feedback on what I said is in the changelog and what not?

Haven't downloaded. Been stock for a while now.lol. also if in could figure out how to root the dam thing on my Mac. I have a PC just reformatted a few weens ago. No time now to install Odin and all those files again. Googled but only can root on ICS using Mac. Will have to make some time

Have you tried it out? You seem to have more time than me. ( starting new orientation in med surg/ emergency dept) as well as taking nursing pre reqs. ) no time anymore to be a flashaholic. Just this post alone took me all day to hit submit as I kept getting interrupted.

I'll flash this tonight and give full feedback on everything with screens and clean up the OP I won't maintain this as if it was my own personal or anything, cause its not. But I will try to help out the community and this will be a 100% support system where everyone can chime in, and b.s. with help and stuff lol.
And yes MonkeyPaws I have way more time then you probably lol. I work usually 3 days a week to get my 40 and then I have the rest of the week to myself and my dog lol. Might take a class or two at a Community College to boost my self esteem though lol.

I think I've seen you in the wicked thread quite a bit, so I'm assuming you've ran wicked for awhile. I've been wanting to try this out, but haven't jumped up to Android 4.2 yet cuz I don't wanna mess with possible issues. How are you liking it?
I've followed Romanbb since his first mods were ported over to the htc amaze before aokp was a thing, and when it was released I wanted it so bad. I know I can just make some backups, and I probably will, but I was just wondering your thoughts and if you'll stick with aokp for awhile. Thanks!

Not me in those threads. I stay away from TouchWiz for the most part. I used to be a huge AOKP person, but I've moved on. I suggest the rom to people for sure, it is running great has awesome features and stable. Not too many bells and whistles but enough to make it your own rom for sure.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Weird Hidden Easter Egg

Found this while playing around.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u7RXMSfeao
I have mixed result, half and half. Some people get it others don't .also it don't matter what service or phone you have as others have had different results. I have the galaxy S4 on T-Mobile . Some say they don't get it while having the same set up as me.

Nope, doesn't work.

Wicked has its own easter egg like that (many of people have copied it by now though) in settings select the more tab then select about device, then rapidly tap the android version untill the jellybean pops up, then long press the jellybean and wicked logos float around the screen and they can be moved around by touching the screen

I'm aware of that easter egg but this guy is talking about something else; dial 123456789 and it plays music.

"Subscriber is not in service."
(Not directed to OP) sounds like another troll.

I had my friend try it on his Galaxy SII (he's running CM10.1 if that happens to matter) and it totally worked. Apparently it works for some and not for others... I wonder why that's so?
Also:
With WiFi calling enabled, I get "The subscriber you have dialed is not in service... Message IL95O56"
With WiFi calling disabled, I get "Your call cannot be completed as dialed... Message NC26951"
I only get EDGE service where I live. I wonder if I would get anything different on 3G/4G? I'll have to try at work tomorrow.

The dialer 123456789 trick worked for me on wicked v3.

Wow other people got this too lol cool , OK so I'm not trying to troll anyone. I found this out while trying to just go on the web browser I had no 4g and I know by dialing any number I usually dial 611 , it resets the data and my 4g comes back. Now what made me dial 123456789? No clue lol I was board and I just dialed it then the music came on. Thought all phones did this so I tried my girlfriends phone and nothing I tried her sisters phone nothing. So I made this video to see if anyone knew about this.
I tried these phones and this is what made me think it was T-Mobile that did this but now its confirmed that its not.
Samsung galaxy s4 T-Mobile - worked
Galaxy s4 sprint - didn't work
Galaxy note 2 T-Mobile - worked
Galaxy reverb virgin mobile - didn't work
Galaxy s2 T-Mobile -worked
These were the results. Anyone know why this happens? I called while on off WiFi and on WiFi also while on 4g and it happens while I'm on any of these.

It doesnt work for me
WELL??? What does it all mean basil?
Someone should make a recording of it.. or a youtube with the phone on speaker...
Im actually really interested in what it sounds like....
Maybe why some get it and some dont is because of region...?
In seattle...

That's what the video link is. I just talk a little demonstrating what a Easter egg is first for anyone who didn't know then I show what happens and what song comes on also I found the name and persons who sings it I have all the information in the description of the video.

Confirmed working. Although it won't work via wifi calling and I was on 4g when it worked.
By the way that's an old dance hall reggae song (originally from the 70s?).... But this version is from my youth! I believe it's Dawn Penn and Bounty Killah summer of 94. Wow I was only 19 then lol!
Big ups to the OP for finding this.... I missed that song and all the dance hall reggae from the 90s! The 90s produced some of the best rap music as well. Peace!

Tried it on 4G here at work and it still doesn't work. I had my coworker try on her SII and it did not work for her either. (But it did work for a friend in NY/NJ on his SII) I'm thinking this might be tower-specific. I've heard that engineers sometimes coded in music that they could dial a secret number and listen to while working on the towers. No idea if this is related though.

Lovin the ROM!

So its random but has anyone outside the United states, have got this? Im in New York also by the way which i don't think makes a difference. This is funny, i searched this on Google and nothing not ever a single hint. I guess im the first to ever find this .
