Develop Bugs

Am I the only person in the world that chose ICS over JB?

Am I the only person in the world that chose ICS over JB?
When I got my Nexus GSM, I instantly upgraded it to JB. Don't misunderstand me, JB was really awesome. However, simple and featureless... I supposed that's why people make ROMs, to build on what Google gave us.
Well, I like features, lots of features, so I installed AOKP M6. And I absolutely love that ROM, but I am wondering if there is anything comparable to it that's JB based. Guess in my mind I am waiting for AOKP JB ROM to move into couple milestone revisions...

AOKP's current builds can be found here:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30659-all-devices-in-source-aokp-jellybean-nightlies-update-nightly/
(Sorry for cross-forum posting...TeamKang is Rootzwiki exclusive now. I don't want to step on any toes by posting this thread on XDA)
They're lacking in comparison to the ICS builds...but if you check the change-log in the OP...it's got quite a bit.
But no, you're not alone.
I stayed on ICS a lot longer than most did. I only switched over due to my love of AOKP...and the fact that %90 of my "required" mods are already included. Except for the Remove NavBar option...but I've been making a flashable .zip for that since they were first released for personal use and for anyone else who wants it.

Nope. Recently downgraded again, see my signature. xD

I stayed on M6 until two days ago.
I finally thought JB had evolved enough.
Happy so far.

Some people just like it simple, that's part of why they chose to go with a nexus.
Android is beautiful.

I went the opposite way, at least for a time. I typically "require" the features found in CM, but ran Bigxie's stock builds for a few weeks and was very happy that way, just had to install a few apps to fill in the gaps, notification toggles, an app for profiles and quiet hours, etc... The overall feel of JB trumped that of ICS for me. For me even a vanilla JB build is better than a great ICS build with customizations, etc...
That said, I've been on a CM10 kang for 2-3 weeks now.

This thread makes no sense. You don't like ICS better. Its just that aokp happened to not merge everything yet. Once there is a JB equivalent are you still saying you'd stay with ICS?

Yea, I don't get this. Sounds like you enjoy ics better because the devs have had it longer. Jb just came out!

I've been considering downgrading to ICS for the sake of having better Lightflow reliability. Even after the July 17 update, it's still not working right for me. Tried a bunch of options, nothing made too much difference.

I tend to go back and forth because HBOgo and MAXgo aren't compatible with jb yet. But that's the only reason to go back for me.

Jelly Bean ROMs are still new. Soon enough they will catch up with what ICS ROMs have.

I stayed with ICS til less than a week ago, but I'm now running JB liquid. It has all the features I've grown accustomed to minus hold power key to toggle torch (which only worked 30% of the time anyway).
My only problem is auto brightness doesn't work as smoothly as on ICS (solved with a configurable brightness toggle), and GPS take about 15 seconds longer to lock. Both seem to be universal to JB.

4.1.2 smoothness..?

Hi All,
I have been using 4.1.2 few days now, and I'm really confused. This is not as smooth as expected. Launcher jerks quite often, not much but much more than in 4.1.1. Am I only one with this issue or do someone have similar experience..?
Thanks !

There were very few changes to the launcher in 4.1.2. Most dealt with orientation on larger screens (like the Nexus 7). So I don't see how it would be any less or more smooth than 4.1.1. Most likely, the user didn't do a clean install or they are just noticing small lags more because they are looking for it.

Cannot agree more. :good:
Maybe it's just a placebo effect but I think autorotation (landscape to portrait and vice versa) animation seems more fluid here than on 4.1.1 which I considered little jittery.

Thank you everyone. I am sure this jerks more than 4.1.1 in my device.. But if it works normally for everyone else then the problem has to be in my device/installation. Installation should be clean (done according installation script). One thing I'm wondering is Google Wallet. I downloaded image with wallet, but it does not seem to be enabled in my region. But neither that should cause jerking..?

You probably need to flash 4.1.2 drivers update. Check this:

Thank you for the tip ! I'm just more confused.. are these drivers really missing from official google factory image..?

The stock image comes with all the drivers and binaries. Maybe turn it off and back on? I have absolutely zero lag and have about 30apps in total. Maybe close the ones you are not using?

ASOP roms may not have them, but should be included in stock.
Do a nandroid backup, flash and test. It is a very very small file to flash. It helped me with AOKP (AOSP).
Before flashing over 4.1.2, I flashed over a 4.1.1 and .... I think a got some additional smoothness, but .... as there is not accurate procedure to measure smoothness, could be only my sensation.
EDIT: 124 user apps running smooth with AOKP

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.

How to get the butter back:
1) Download the last stable 4.1.2 rom of your choice
2) Do a factory reset with TWRP
3) Wipe the buggy 4.2.1 rom using TWRP
4) Flash 4.1.2 back in.
5) Enjoy butter while waiting for 4.2.2 or later builds which is probably coming in January due to the holidays.
Was that so hard?

Or just flash the official 4.2.1. I run stock, rooted and have no problems. I tried a few roms based of 4.2.1 and they were slow and laggy.

This reminds me of the "zero shutter lag" feature that was removed from the Gnex, or selling a 8GB device just to say it "starts at $299." It's just something fancy for them to advertise and get some hype/sales, then they remove it. This is standard procedure by now, right?

Butter is not gone, 4.2 is definitely smoother than ICS and on par with 4.1 and it seems to have much less stutter than 4.1 did
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

I can confirm that 4.2.1 stock seems really fast to me.
I have to say that I'm a new GNex user, coming from a Nexus S with 4.1.2. I was using rasbeanjelly with an optimised kernel: there were obviously some lags, time to time.

Noone can tell you exactly what, but the general trend is, that the OTA caused various problems for some, so when some people don't have problems on the same SW, the problem can only be located to something stored on the data partition because of the update process compared to a full wipe.
So the answer is simple, you do a full wipe and install the factory image of 4.2(.1) directly. If this doesn't solve it, it isn't a software problem...
And yes my phone is no less fluid than it was on 4.1, Í, however, updated as descriped with a clean install.

1. No that is a general misconception, what was really the case, was a regular code error(zero-index error), making the last row in the array holding the months being skipped. You can't blame them for not spotting this small error in the very limited testing they can do in house. I for one have never used that particular feature and didn't know you could add birthdays until this was discovered. What really matters is that it was fixed within weeks.
2. How? Everything seems to be branded as play store quite fine, whether you like the name or not shouldn't matter
3. why wouldn't they promote the chrome brand and make it easier for users to sync everything between their desktop and phone?

In a direct comparison,i still think 4.1.2 is a bit more fluid overall (app drawer for example,let alone recent apps list). That together with all the other stuff going on (screen switches on,blutooth, worse battery - for me at least) led me to go back and stay to 4.1.2. Not a single problem and constant ~4h on screen time. I can easily wait for a bugfix update next year.

EDIT: The lag fixed itself, I dont know what happened. That is fine. Only problem is It wont reboot after first successful boot. It probably is Android Tweaker Pro. It is a great app, but also caused my stock rom to randomly reboot.

To answer a few of your questions. (Im updating thread now to)
1. I do plan on updating to 4.2 just need to update the code a bit and wait for the lockscreen to get ported.
2. Yes its based on AOKP 4.1.2
3. My rom is different because im going to take the time to keep it updated with anything new and im always constantly working on new ports to add to it. Its also more featureful, and its going to support toro and toroplus as soon as i get 4.2 working.
4. WHY YOU HATE AOKP SO MUCH? JK im using any base that i find most stable, im pretty sure im going to switch it for the 4.2 update since AOKP is constantly releasing updates for it and it will be hard to keep up with it.
5. Lag? I really have not noticed any lag besides the Xperia live wallpaper, thats sony's fault for not optimizing the app properly.

This ROM is running great. Loaded lean kernels latest stable 4.8 and all is good. A nice break from AOSP.

Oh, I've never heard of this then lol
The AOKP hate, its opinion but on both devices I've owned they been just so horrible and cheesy.. I don't like that swag button. The features are lacking. Honestly I'm on a stable base of 4.2.2, using Orca. The features are just amazing. I'm guessing because I tried the apks is that a lot of this framework doesn't really work for 4.2.2? I mean this is basically an Xperia ROM. I'm really impressed, I'm really hoping we can eventually get an actual port but I doubt it.
Secretly "I want a W8 port" love the style they use. Call me whacky lol.. But this is awesome you've made a breakthrough, or well your the only person who technically cares to do something like this. So I appreciate it this a lot man.
Edit: 4.1 doesn't bother me, we basically miss out on the status bar features. Just the base.

Just a quick note of congratulations and thanks, +Hyperrunner. I've been with Android since the first G1s were shipped, and this port reminds me of all the really inventive, well-done ports that we saw for the G1 back when other devices and models began to appear. I've been waiting for a really cool port to put on the GNex (which has had excellent but slightly bland firmware as stock from the beginning), and this Xperia port of yours really hits the spot. I think the AOKP base was a great choice. If it plays well with Linux Deploy and continues to be stable, this will become my primary ROM. Thanks a bunch, you deserve donations for your contribution to the Android community!

Thank you this ROM is pretty sweet love the look. Nice to have something other than stock for once

Yes, bravia engine is always on its more of a configuration then an app. Its always one and it helps display pictures better.
