[Q] Slow Read/Write & Lags on CM10 Based Roms (but not on AOSP based roms)

Hi,
I've only got my Galaxy Nexus earlier this week. I tried out the stock rom for a day, then decided to switch to CM10.
It looks like whenever I flash CM10 based Roms, I experience lags when opening applications, reading/writing files to the system, however I am not experiencing these issues in any AOSP based roms.
For example, when I restore SMS by an app called SMS Backup & Restore, on AOSP based roms, the restore happens A LOT quicker than CM10 based roms.
I've tried CM10 nightly from 10/10 as well as JellyBro. I've done complete wipe (format /system /data /cache, clear dalvik, delete Android folder from internal SD). I've also tried different kernels (Franco and Trinity seemed to be populat in the forum) but didn't make any differences. I am still getting the annoying lags in CM10 based roms.
Is this normal for CM10 based roms? or is there anything I can do to fix the issue?

FYI, CM10 is an AOSP based ROM.
I've experienced nothing but smoothness from CM10. Have you been checking the MD5 sum? Could be a bad download, I've actually had to download a ROM more than once from the CM servers because the sums didn't match up.

I'm on latest paranoid droid 2.21 with trinity kernel alpha 67. oc to 1.3ghz/384gpu interactive. I've had paranoid droid since 1.6 and i've been experiencing similar lag OP described. Mainly opening google now, camera app, settings. Have not tried stock 4.1.2 rom yet... although I'm really tempted to flash back to stock since it seems to solve the lag problem for some people. I've played with all the settings but to no avail. It's frustrating seeing how people are saying their jellybean galaxy nexus is so smooth and flies while mine stutters intermittently all the time
Here's a quick video i made demonstrating some of the lag
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq7mhqmKZtA
would like to know if others have a similar experience as me. Whether this is normal behavior or is there something I need to change/tweak?

Thanks. I have checked all the MD5 sums - they all match up. I've tried a lot of roms based on CM10 - CM10 nightlies, JellyBro, Paranoid and Paranoid dark, but still the same issue.
I should have clarified what I meant by AOSP based rom. I meant any roms that doesn't have too much changes from pure AOSP (Eg. stock rom, Android Revolution and the roms by Team EOS)
When I flash CM10 based roms, even the initial setup seems to be lagging (I've been doing clean installations - format cache/system/data, clear dalvik). For example, on the initial setup screen, upon selecting the language and hit next, it takes a lot longer (probably around 10 seconds or so) to progress to the next step whereas anything based on stock takes me to the next screen within a second.
I'm not too sure if my perception of lag is different from others. I've actually come from using Galaxy S2 (I've decided to try GN after accidently dropping my S2 in the washing machine). I've never had this sorts of lags on any of the CM10 based roms on S2.
It looks like some of these lags go away if I disable fsync in the kernels, but not all the lags

Yeh, i'm having similar lags on my phone on any CM10 based roms (including Paranoid). One thing that sort of helped me was disabling fsync (on Franco's kernel). Or try flashing the stock rom and see if it gets better. At least stock rom seems to be very smooth in my case.

Yeah, I'm basically having the same problem. When I went back to stock, it seemed to be a lot faster. Granted, I did reinstall all my apps at that point. When I get a minute, I'll probably reinstall cyanogenmod 10 to see if it is still slow or not with a fresh install.

I can attest to having annoying lag in CM10 based roms such as ParanoidAndroid. It's always smooth in the beginning but as I install more apps, it just slows down considerably.
I just wiped my entire phone last night and started over running Rasbean Jelly 10.16 Build(AOSP Based) with Trinity A67 1344/307 and it's as smooth as it can get. I have about 130 apps installed and it's still fast as ****. Google now/ google search takes about 1 sec. to start versus it can take up to 5-6 seconds before on CM based roms. All apps are responsive and starts super fast.
Don't know why this occurs but it seems that some galaxy nexus' like ours just dont like the CM10 Builds..
So if anyone is having lag problems, I'd recommend the rasbean jelly + trinity combo before looking for a new phone..

Do you guys see "lags" on stock rom? Yes? Then return the device.

Thanks, glad to see I'm not the only one. I'd check out Rasbean Jelly + Trinity, but I'm using this as an excuse to dump VZW and go with the Nexus 4 next week.

Hi Folks
On my device the lag is connected to how full the file system is.
If I copy lot of music on the phone then it becomes laggy
If I delete it, it is still laggy.
To recover its full smmothness I have to do a full wipe and then restore the FW.
Did anyone find the same problem?
thnx

This can be fixed with fstrim. Here is a cwm zip that runs fstrim as a script upon each boot and places a fstrim.log file in /data/local to verify it worked. It trims /system, /data and /cache.

Edit:
*Important* There are some emmc cards that have a so called "brick bug". Use this app to check and use the fstrim at your own risk.

Stable OS for Droid Incredible (1st Gen)

Hello all. I recently got a new phone and I want to keep my old DROID INCREDIBLE and use it for other things. MP3 Player, Alarm Clock and so on. Right now what I am looking for is the best or most stable OS that I can use with my device. I did some searching on this site and the rest of the net but not sure what to go with. Also do I still have to ROOT my phone again for any reason? It's been a good year and half so I'm not sure if that is needed or just install a new OS. Thanks for the help.

Well best and stable are a mater of opinion really, even the latest stock has the 2am bootloop issue for some people. If you want a non stock rom you would need to be rooted to flash it. What rom is the phone on now or what android version if stock?

Right now I have ClockworkMOD Recovery 2.5.0.5 and I think I'm using one of the Abduction OS's. It's been a while.
This is the info I have in the phone under Software Info.
Android Version - 2.3.4
Baseband - s.15.00.04.08
Kernel - 2.6.35.13-g03546aa
[email protected] #1
Build - 4.08.605.1 CL185897
Software Number - nschiwy-sparkplug.1.2.0
Not sure if that helps. Hopefully it does.

My opinion is flash CM7.2 stable on it as you can tweak the auto brightness for battery and it's always done good on battery life for me. It looks like you have the sparkplug ROM by the way. I wonder why the build says 4.08.605.1 as that seems a bit old. Oh yeah, you're using this ROM I bet:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788393&highlight=sparkplug
You probably won't get more stable or better on battery than a sense 1.0 ROM or a lightweight AOSP ROM though I was happy with CM7 and had it as a daily driver for most of the lifetime of the Inc being active.

Best/Stable Rom

I am rooting the fire for my niece. What is the best, most stable Rom right now. Don't want get to have to deal with any problems. Just a stable experience

Try GEDErom or AlienDroid. No problems for me. There is also Hashcode's but haven't tried those.
Devices:
Kindle Fire with AlienDroid primary and Modaco secondary

It comes down to personal preference. I tried all the JB ROMs and last night went back to CM7 for the awesome battery life and stable performance. Sooner or later I'll go back to JB because of OTG support.
One suggestion would be just try out as many as you can and answer your own question.

The ICS ROMS are much more stable than any JB ROM. GedeROM is my favourite ICS ROM.
You could of course try a modified stock ROM, like MoDaCo which is also very stable.

Yes. I have been running JB since hashcode first produced a fire rom. I currently use twa_priv's rendition. I do not experience any stability problems except those I cause myself by messing with the system.

That also depends on preference. I'm currently running the barebones CM7 with intersect raven's kernal. I like it because it has been stripped of almost all the apps and runs smoothly. The Hellfire CM7 has more visual color to it. I recently flashed the Cm7 stockish from goo manager (the ROM was updated on 11-04-12) but the SoD was very frequent

[Q] Best CM7 Rom

I've been trying to use the newer Android roms, but there isn't enough ram on any of these for me to do the things I need to do. So I was looking on Thepooch's Kindle Fire Development index and I noticed the four CM7 roms there. Now out of those four (since they are the most recently updated), which one would you recommend?

Yeah I've decided to take the testing into my own hands. So far I've tested Sblood's CM7 Source and Hellfire. Hellfire is admittedly less stable and I can't delete any of the gapps (Hangouts, Google Search, etc.) without the Google Services Framework constantly force closing. But I am able to OC to 1200 and the CM7 Source only lets you OC to 1008. I'm testing Barebones by the end of the week.
Edit: I found two more roms by smirkis:
CM7 Kang

I don't know. I use COTR and I haven't touched TWRP for over a year. I don't see why it wouldn't though since it's a recovery. I tested all of the first four and so far I like Hellfire the best. I'll test the other two by the end of the week if there hasn't been a fix for CM11.

I decided I won't try the two by smirkis because you cannot dual boot them. I'm running Kitkang with Barebones as my alt. boot now and I'm quite happy with it

Use COTR instead of TWRP.

Anyone else feel JB was still the "best" version for GNEXUS?

Anyone else feel JB was still the "best" version for GNEXUS?
I've been a flash addict since I got the phone. Always going for the experimental, nightly builds and such.
However, I am getting tired of my gnexus lagging, and slowing down randomly. I've always felt 4.1 JB was very responsive and good memory management for my phone. anyone feel the same way?

4.1 has been the only version of Android I've not had any issues with and I'm still running today.
I think people just get to caught up on having/running the latest/greatest Android version, when really our GN was made to run perfectly on JB 4.1.
4.2 was made for N4
4.4 for N5
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

4.1 you say?
Mine came with 4.2 so will give 4.1 a try. Battery life was not good with stock 4.2 but better with fancy kernel or any of the newer ROM.
I tried CM11, Avatar, Slim, PA, Vanir and others.

I don't think any particular Android version is "made" for a device in particular.
Yes, Jelly Bean originally debuted on the 2012 Nexus 7 and the Nexus 4 saw the next major update but that doesn't mean that Android still can't run on any other device provided that the kernel and ROM are optimized for it. Those devices were just test/reference devices for development.
I have cyanogenmod Kitkat on my device and it runs as good (or better) than stock Jelly Bean.
It's like Windows 8. It runs good on some PCS, whereas on others it lags a bit.
Software is software and to the device it's all the same.

I'm also trying this theory ATM, will upgrade to a new phone soon but 4.4 has really been really slow after a while on my Gnex, even after converting to f2fs..
In other news, I now need to post in general discussion until I have enough posts to post in development so here goes.

For those of you still on 4.1, would you mind uploading and sharing the roms you are using?

i'm running omni on my toroplus now 4.4.4 and i would have to say this is much better than the stock roms (i've ran 4.1/4.2/4.3) and they all work, but i really dig the 4.4 only camera from google and i'm a version junkie...
i did try just stable releases from CM all the way back to 4.1.2 but couldn't get random things working and didn't feel like taking the time...
so far, between working 4g/3g handoff's, more stable wifi, access to the latest apps that need 4.4 (camera is the only one that comes to mind) i'll run omni...still hoping that the awesome kernel guys will get 3.4 working and we can move to android L for some of that awesome battery life

Um, "Project butter" was introduced with JB 4.1. I know everyone was after that on their ROMs...

The best Android versions for the Galaxy Nexus are definitely 4.1 and 4.3 final releases. The problems with 4.4.x that finally made me ditch it are the unfixed radio issues and subsequent battery drain. I've heard that some roms such as Dirty Unicorns, Omnirom, and Slimkat have this fixed, or at least the radio cutout issue. My favorites though that give me good battery, performance, and features are 4.1.2 LiquidJB and 4.3.1 Vanir, the latter being my daily driver.
This folder includes 4.1.2 gapps and a few other addons (flash rom, gapps, then addons):
