With some roms, I have this issue where when I click the recent apps, theres an animation flicker/lag when there shouldn't be one. After a very, very brief moment, it disappears though.
I don't know what could be causing this in one version of the rom, the issue is not there and then in another version, it is present.
I thought this might have been something on my phone that was cleared properly so today I did a clean instal of the rom (after I went back to stock for a few minutes), but it is still there.
Does anyone have insight to how to get rid of this? I *think* that some people have it and others dont
I had this for the longest time, and I'm pretty sure I've tried every fix imaginable. The only thing that works for me is pressing home before pressing recents. If you always press recents from your home screen, and not from within an app, the animation bug never seems to occur.

Before, I was able to do a reboot and it would be fixed for a while but now it doesnt go away. And thank you, I'll try pressing home first!
I thought it was my rom so I did a clean flash 3x. It was so tedious

No, I'm on maguro.
Its weird because I used to be able to reboot and it'd get rid of the problem but now I cant.
I actually rooted my brothers phone yesterday and put on the same rom (but he has the nexus 4-mako) and the issue is there as well! I originally thought it was my phone only.
I was on liquid 2.1 stable (and the issue wasn't there) but on 2.1 official it is, and it is on 2.2 official as well.
When I was on xylon, there were versions where it wasnt there and then versions where it is there
I think it might be a feature that all of these roms added (perhaps from one source) but I'm not a developer so this is probably just gibberish!
The roms that I've tried and seen it on is Xylon, Xenon HD and AOKP. The only rom where I consistently never had this issue is CM (M2) but the CM series don't have enough customizations for my taste, unfortunately.
Which rom(s) do you have this issue with?
Carbon,Xylon and Paranoid are ROMs that I know that doesnt have any lag in recents

What version on Xylon? I switched roms because xylon (for me) was acting up and I had that issue on the last update I tried (which is 2.3).
I might give carbon or Paranoid a try though! Thanks for the recommendations!!
Also! Does paranoid have 4-row toggles? I have quite a bit of toggles so its much more convenient to have 4 per row then 3 per row!

Avoiding custom roms, tried over 10, only stock gets me very good battery life
It's not a feature in ICS, if you don't want a custom ROM you're out of luck.
That said, I'm not sure I see the value of it. What do you use it for?

I also no longer see the value considering the specs of this phone.
I tried to Custom ROMs - AOKP and SLIM ICS. And both ROMs have customizable Navigation buttons. You can set Kill App function on any Nav button (short press or long press).
I use that feature very much.
If I won't be playing a game, I just kill it.
I believe this same battery a little and doesn't require much effort.
try using conservative governor, it gave me much more battery time on my nexus since it spends more time at lower clock than the standard ondemand and interactive governor

Thank You ... but this and other "alternatives" are no answers ... I think every user know, why he wants to have such long-pressing-back-button-feature (and now, please don't say we have not understand the OS memory intention etc.) ...
I am also looking for ... have you seen a little app/ script which implements this feature on a rooted ICS mobile phone?

i also want that feature, as there are more and more games, that keep running in the background and come up with "sales-notification", "reminder to play" or whatever...to avoid this, i always need to go into apps-settings and kill them after playing, otherwise i get these annoying notifications... :-\
CM9 have that feature too. I do see the point of having it if you use some apps that will wakelock your phone (i.e. Facebook), and the only way to fix it is to kill the app (hold back is quicker then going into recent apps and swipe it away).
Either you use a custom rom, or you don't get it. End of story.

why do so many people think, that swiping apps out of the recent apps list does stop them from running? they are just taken out of the list, but if they are still running, they still do after swiping them away, no matter if shown in the list or not!
try it with one. check if it's running, take it out of recents list and check again...

why? - what developers of custom roms can do, also developers of a single kill-back-button-app/ script can do for rooted phones ... I don't want to use Cyanogen only for that feature/ reason.

That's a very useful and helpful answer.
Anything you can get in a custom ROM, you can have in a stock ROM. It just takes someone to implement it. If no one has implemented it yet, assuming there is enough interest, someone will...
I have kanged it before into stock, built from src.

The changes are in PhoneWindowManager.smali/.java. I've been trying to add it to my stock IMM76K ROM, but xda search being down isn't helping. If anything, I'll compile AOSP with and with out the change to find exactly what changes need to be made in the .smali file.

You can only have this option on AOKP / GUMMY and non-official rom porting by aokp.
The best rom i use is gummy, AOKP got some problem with connection...
And gummy has good tweaks that doesn't have aokp, and aokp has very great stuff that gummy doesnt have...
But gummy is very stable on the connection.

Did it with my Gallery, Dialer, and GO SMS, and the phone had to reload the application EVERY SINGLE time I swiped.
If I didn't swipe, it would be right where I left it. Any more questions?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Ok, maybe someone has an idea here:
I started installing custom roms on my HOX a few weeks ago, and started with InsertCoin (ICS) because of the stability. Everything worked - this is my goto Nandroid backup, and I'm going back to it a lot. Now I've been playing around with Jelly Bean roms, specifically LorD's Ice Cold Jelly 0.7 AOKP and tbalden's CM 10 Alpha 1.2.
I had a couple of problems with the former, and everything seems to work fine with the latter, except a very strange issue I have with both. For some reason, a reboot resets all my apps' setting. This is most in the Launcher (Nova AND Apex, same problem), where all the widgets I have added disappear after every reboot, and my custom keyboard choice, Swiftkey. After every reboot, swiftkey is disabled, and the stock keyboard is back.
Since everything works fine with ICS, I've been thinking maybe there is some security setting or the like that prevents my changes from being saved?
I'd appreciate any ideas - I really like Jelly Bean!
I'm using CM10 Alpha 1 v2 from tbalden and don't have any of this problems. I'm using Trebuchet though, so maybe it's a launcher-based problem?
Greetings

I just checked. Trebuchet also loses widgets after reboot for me. Is it possible that it's just some apps that aren't JB-ready yet that are reset every time (like Advanced Clock Widget, for example)?
This is from the 'Issues' section of both of those ROMs:

I dunno, it could be the issue very clearly explained in the threads for both of those ROMs given it's exactly what you're complaining about.
I know, that would have required reading the clearly marked 'Issues' section for the ROM you were about to flash, and that would have been far too much effort.

Dude, thank you. I had read everything before installing the ROM, but then forgot about this after experiencing the issue. I will try this solution immediately!

Happens in the best of families It did get resolved, thank you again. Now that both Apex and Nova are working, I just have to make up my mind which launcher to use ...
I'm on Aerovan's most recent (8/22, I think?) build of CM9. It's been much more stable than previous builds from him, but I have a problem. It's happened on his builds, as well as the leak RUU and Black Ice AOKP.
My soft keys just stop working. Not the back light, as some people have complained about. I mean all four of them. No home, no menu, no back, and no search. I've worked around the no home by adding my launcher as a shortcut on the lock screen, but I'm sure you can imagine how frustrating that is. I know on some AOKP/AOSP builds you can add a navigation bar.
So my questions are:
1. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried rebooting, rebooting wit a battery pull... Nothing brings it back anymore.
2. If I flash from Aerovan to, say Black Ice, should I do a clean wipe? I'm never sure when I should do a full wipe and when I should do just a cache wipe.
Thanks!

It's a "feature" that I don't care for either. To restore the original functionality see this thread.
Edit...for your second question, I almost always do a full wipe, and especially if switching to a different rom. It does take a little longer, but usually pays for itself in the long run by having less problems.
Thanks, but the is a post about fixing a back light issue... My issue isn't about the back light, it's the soft keys themselves not working. I'm wondering if it's my phone, because it's done it across several ROMs...

Nvm... Yes sounds like it may be hardware if it persists in multiple roms.
I un-rooted back to stock (bootloader and ROM) and am still having the issue. Will be taking the phone back to Best Buy tomorrow for a replacement. Thanks for the help, though!

Hi Devs
I'm from Mumbai India and i'm using galaxy nexus gsm.
It is an awesome phone but lately i'm having problem
My phone screen flashs and blackouts out of nowhere While operating my nexus and than i have to reboot it.
This has been happening from the time when i tried few custom roms (xylon, miui, overdrive, pa, minco v6 and madoco) back to back couple of weeks back. I don't know what is the cause of it and why is it happening.
So guys i need little help here.. Plzz help me fix it.
Right now I'm using baked 7 rom and gapp 4.2.1 12/12/2012.
Thank you in advance
I believe this is referred to as a Screen of death, or sod. Search the forum, and you may find some answers. Ive heard this is common on 4.2.1, but have yet to deal with it myself. Actually, though, ive had some close calls where the power button will not wake the phone, and i believe ive also seen where the actual issue is waking the phone from sleep..
Actually, I've just noticed that you're using the old gapps as well. The baked downloads page has the new gapps, and perhaps that may help you.
THANK YOU

Just add the title says I've been having this issue ever since i started flashing custom ROMs. This only happens in custom ROMs with either custom kernel (flash) or built in kernel. At the most random times when i go to wake my device the screen will stay black but the phone is still responsive. Led light still flashing from notifications I'm trying to check i can still toggle flashlight but holding the power button and etc. It's just the dam screen refuses to wake until around 20/30 seconds!! No one else is having this problem in the rom threads which would be DU help thread, NOS, and AquariOS THREADS. I've tried everything to remedy the problem including clean flashes whipping caches no modifications. Nothing has worked. Just wondering if anyone experienced the same thing and how to solve the problem. Thanks in advance.

That's why i posted here because i don't wanna keep spamming the threads. I would've thought to RMA but this never ever happens on stock+root+flash kernel. It's so frustrating because it's so hard to pin point what's going on so I'll try a clean flash tonight after work and then i will only install Flash kernel and magisk (those can't be the culprits and i would refuse to believe if anyone said otherwise) I'm also only gonna install my basic most needed apps it has to be one of my user apps not playing nice with custom ROMs but every single app i have running right now on AquariOS is the same exact apps and setup i have on my twrp backup of stock. This just don't make sense. Stock is really really nice on this phone but i still prefer custom ROMs for certain much needed features that i either can't get from stock or have to install some mod or something. Thanks for keeping tabs in me tho Badger!!?? Your a good man really appreciate your help bro

The Custom Navigation Bar app dev has said that they identified and fixed that issue in their app. That would explain why you don't experience the issue while on stock using that app, but do have it on custom ROMs using some other immersive mode method.
