Hi guys, just wanted to share this that I found over the N5 Forum.
Looks like they pulled the optimized libs from the Moto X and created a flashable zip.
I'm using KitKang and flashed this... Phone feels more responsive.
Feel free to try yourselves.
LINK REMOVED AS IT BREAKS ALL CAMERA APPS.

Those are Dalvik and Bionic libs optimized for Qualcomm CPU and our GN has OMAP CPU so they shouldnt make any significant difference, its probably placebo

I just read that entire thread as well as watched a posted video comparison on it. My verdict from all of that is this doesn't do much and ART fully trumps it as far as performance boost. That is my conclusion on it for the Nexus 5. I would imagine it does nothing on the Galaxy Nexus seeing as we have a completely different chipset.
Not trying to be discouraging, by all means if someone wants to do a thorough testing of this mod and give some feedback on the contrary I will absolutely eat my words, but from all that has been spoken about the mod on that thread It looks like ART is still the better choice.
Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention though, it's always good to have different options.

Hey Neph, I can say that with this somehow I feel my GN snappier. But just realized it breaks all camera apps.
So to me is a no go.

Hey guys, I've noticed that my camera is really grainy whenever I use any other ROM than the official JB ROM.
Anyone else found this to be the case, and is there any way around this? I really do need a functioning camera

Bogus claim. The apk is the same and drivers are the same.

Maybe your custom kernel's color setting is what makes you think that pictures look worse? Can you take a picture of a object with custom ROM and another one with stock ROM?
I actually firmly believe I get better camera quality on JB over ICS, but it shouldn't differ ROM to ROM.

I feel that way too, what I think the reasoning is because the way the camera focuses was changed in JB which leads to better focused pictures and a happier me

CM actually uses a modified Camera.apk which includes some extra features. My point is that not all cameras in all ROMs are the same.

I have a fix for the lagginess in builds from the past week and a half or so. The culprit is the surface flinger library. It is the android compositing system and some changes recently made to it are responsible for the significant lag in recent builds. Most noticeable spot is if you hit the home button if you have the notification drawer down. It becomes extremely laggy without this patch. Scrolling is also less smooth whenever multiple things on the screen are being drawn. This fixes all those issues.
Just flash this in cwm or whatever recovery you choose. Should work on all cm10 builds and cm10 based roms like paranoid android.
Merged into cyanogemod on September 19th

Thanks for this! The lag was literally the only thing that kept me going back to JellyBelly. I love me some CM!
Thought this might be another placebo thing but damn, this really works! The usual spots of minor lag like scrolling the app lists in the play store, gmail, play music are now smooth as eggs.
Good job, man.

Please keep the thread positive and leave out the drama. Feel free to ask anything, I simply ask that you take a minute and look for your answer first.

- uses Team Baked's Mms.apk
Instructions
- Download rom and preferred Gapps
- Reboot recovery
- Backup
- If coming from another rom - factory reset
- Flash rom and Gapps
- Reboot
Changelog

very nice, thank you akellar. running very smoothly so far.
I'm having two problems on this rom for some reason. I'm getting lockups in Chrome browser, the second time I did a battery pull because of it I had to re enter my password for Chrome. I also will be around 50+ battery life, reboot and I'm down to 15%. It's there any way I can find out what's causing this?

I don't use Chrome so I can't speak to issues with it. A logcat could help though. The stock kernel is pretty extreme on some settings as well so possibly switch the kernel or tweak the settings. I'll probably be going to Lean Kernel in future releases just for stability but still highly suggest AK kernel.
As far as the weird battery stats, that happens on all roms from time to time. If you reboot again it will possibly go back to normal. It doesn't happen often but it does happen, especially on a lookup or hard reboot.

Hey akellar, the radios in your ROM seem to work a lot better than most ROMs I've tried. Are you tweaking anything for this, that you are aware of?

Why do you need an "exact" representation?

What do you plan on doing to improve the radios? The only change is the way the system determines bars from the dBm measurement. Roms don't impact signal. And radios can't be altered.
The audio on this Rom is much softer than rootbox or some others I tried. Am I missing something? I set up noxide as usual, but just not the same performance from the sound.
Rom is sick otherwise though.

Just try to change different roms regularly and it will all be fine. Don't keep one rom too long, don't let the nexus grow fond of it or it will take more time to adapt to new ones.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum and new to smartphone enhancing. I'm currently running build 6 of AOKP 4.2.2 on my AT&T Note II along with Apex launcher; its been a killer combo for me so far. I would like to find a good kernel that will run nicely at 1800. I haven't been able to find many kernels compatible with AOKP however. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and I'm glad to be apart of the community.

Welcome Matt! I don't have a kernel suggestion for you but I can tell you what most developers will tell you... You don't need to OC this device. I ran mine Oc'd for the first couple of months and it didn't do anything but drain my battery faster. Just a suggestion.
But if you're dead set on trying it out I'm sure you can find something in the development section.
