[Q] Laggy notification bar on kitkat 4.4 roms - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi,
I've istalled a lot of kitkat roms so far, with multiple kernels and it was quite fast and lag-free except when i pull down the notification bar, its always very-very laggy.. i don't know what to do with it..:silly:
Does anybody else have this problem? Are there any fix for this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Mine also was very Laggy, But after I updated to latest CM 11 Nightly it Doesn't seem as Bad...

Noticed only on CM11 based roms (also was on CM10.2). AOKP running fine.

All cm based ROMs lag all over the place for me.
Omni based ROMs seem smoother but not lag free (the animation to quick settings and pull down notification is smooth).
Give OmniMetal a try.

I have tried most of the 4.4.2 roms and haven't had this issue. So far the most stable has been shiny rom 1/04/14. I have tried liquid but that still had to many glitches and cmmetal was a battery hog.

I just installed the latest cm11 nightly (11-20140106-NIGHTLY-toro) and it's much much better. Try it, lag is almost non existent.

Thank you guys, I tried all of the roms you said, but I still have this issue.. sometimes its smooth for a few minutes, and then it starts to lag again..
:crying:
I have no idea what could cause this.

in my opinion, is caused by the signal icon, because there is no lag in wifi ... so I tried to change the signal icon and the problem is gone .... recommend changing signal icon with zipthemer ....
** example on the rom I submitted (AOSP Linaro) I changed my signal icon and the lag is gone ... it works on all roms

Yes, i have statusbar lags too! Especially when i switch between notifications and quick settings tiles.
Few things:
1. This happens on EVERY 4.4 ROM - CM, AOKP, Mokee, Gummy etc...
2. ONLY OmniMetal by @metalspring doesn't have this lag
3. Kernel doesn't matter - ASKP, Fancy, Golden, stock... Always i have lag.
4. Rest of interface works very smooth (i guess on every 4.4 ROM) but i can see this lag on statusbar and this is annoying
Even on CM Nightly 01/07 (in changelog i can see statusbar changes but...)
Guys, this is some problem in KitKat sources.

I have to contradict you, even the omni present lag after a while .... anyway are trifles, I for now I solved it using another signal icon, however, are small bugs that will be fixed ... as you say too .. kitkat is still young

I hope that devs will fix that ASAP but for now they are not completely responding on this issue

I agree even I have noticed this lag on all KitKat ROMs and it really bugs me a lot.

Can you please point out to a thread that has signal mods or upload the zipthemer compatible mod you already have with you? I am searching by my own but I can't find any that match the white theme of KitKat. And this lag is the only reason I'm still on 4.3.1 . Thanks.
Edit: First of all, zipthemer gives an error stating that SystemUI.apk does not exist (also tried different options for signal icons but it doesn't work), and moreover the lag persists when either Wifi is switched on but not connected to any network or the Wifi is not switched on (H+). 4.3.1 here I go again >.<

[MOD] CyanogenMod9 Tablet UI

THIS MOD IS DISCONTINUED! AS I HAVE SOLD MY SGS2, I WON'T SUPPORT ANY NEW UPDATES!
IF SOMEONE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE THE WORK, PLEASE MAKE A NEW THREAD! THANK YOU!
Hello,
Since ICS was launched and it's available for smartphones and tablets I was wondering if the ICS's Tablet UI would be available for smartphones.
This is the Tablet UI for Samsung Galaxy S2.

}
After you install this, your phone will become a 4.3" tablet.
Video (thanks to roadkill33)
Bugs:
Well, I can't tell anything about this mod's stability. It may give you Force Closes on some apps. However, I haven't encountered any problems until now except the fact that this will modify your screen density to 120 and the text is barely visible. You should find a bigger font or you can set the Huge font size from settings.
Please tell me if you found any other bugs.
Requirements:
You will need the latest CyanogenMod9 to install this.
How to install:
Put the zip on the sdcard and flash it using CWM.
Credits:
All the credits go to AndroidON. I only modified some files to get this working on the Galaxy S2. Original thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483221
USE THE MOD AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Download links:
This one is for CyanogenMod9 builds before 3rd March!
For builds after 3rd March use the attached zip (thanks Tyrany)!
Download Link 1
Download Link 2
Stock UI:
If you want to get back the stock UI, just change your phone's screen density to 240dpi. You can use an app to do this, I recommend LCD Density Modder.

My phone didn't become an 4,3" tablet.

Thanks for this one..
personally, I prefer the tablet UI to the phone one.
Everything seems to work really well. (except for minor graphical glitches)
i can make and recieve calls without any issues.
Been using it for three days now.
However like someone mentioned earlier the dates and the time on the notification bar overlap.
Any idea how to fix this?
maybe you could point me in the right direction or something?
Once again, many thanks for this brilliant mod.
Does this work with miui v4 which is cm9 base?

is it possible to use higher dpi and keep the tablet UI ???
I know that Tablet UI is supported with a maximum of 142dpi. However, using this mod, if you change to any other value higher than 120dpi it will come back to the Stock ICS UI. I don't really know why but I'm looking for a solution.
L.E.: Can't get this working on XXLPH as it's full of Samsung things that I need to edit and if I would do it, it would become more a Custom ROM than a Mod ^^.

Didn't know there was an update on the android central forum
not sure if it has to do with the music FC but if I try to select a ringtone it will FC , i can't take a screenshot of the FC popup. other wise this rom looks great!
Edit: also, the swipe to dismiss is not working, it will move to the side but either go back or it woll select the thing I'm trying to dismiss
Yeah, why is it now a Sprint optimus? there are actually LESS apps for this now! is there a way to change it back to optimus v or to a sprint phone with more apps?
The pic is what i got when I went to the market on my computer with the same account as my phone, but in the phone settings it does say its the virginmobile one?
i can't set a notification sound. When i goto System Settings > Sound > Notification Ringtone > then click android system to select the sound the phone reboots.
Looks sweet I gotta try it

How well does it run (speed and smoothness) compared to CM7.2 from the various sources posted here?
i really enjoyed this ROM. the only issue i had was that my 3G just randomly stopped working about 3 days after the ROM was installed. i tried toggling data, airplane mode, cdma, everything and it wouldn't work, so i flashed back to IHO.
i do miss it though.

from what ive seen, its ****ing FAST! I had it running for 3 days before I realized I didn't even overclock it yet! very smooth also, some bugs but worth it.
best part has to be the keyboard, I can type about 30% faster, it just works better
rom is super fast compared to iho. i can actually text and listen to music at the same time. Only bugs i've noticed is google music doesn't work, can't set a notification/ringtone sound and when you click on the updater another force close. Im giving it a couple more days tell i flash back to iho, hopefully the notification sound will get fixed so i can stick with this rom

If you use an app like zedge, you can set your ringtone and notifications sounds from within the app and it works just fine.
Has anybody been able to figure out how to be able to swipe a notification away without the pull down menu going away? Kinda annoying to have to pull it down again to swipe each notification.
Liking it alot overall though...fast compared to IHO CM7. Any chance some type of updater app can be implemented similar to the Backside Updater found on the CM7 build? that would be a great feature for this awsome ROM. Thanks for all the hard work
Has anyone else had problems with this rom randomly restarting and freezing?
I love this rom, but it keeps restarting. I installed the updated one.

What do you think about the CM7.2 RC1?

Hello XDA,
I just tested the new Cyanogenmod 7.2 RC1 (if you don't know: It could be found at the cm website for quite a while now Cyanogenmod, device page, look out for GSM /CDMA . I am pretty thrilled (as always) by it. I really like the ICS features like the lockscreen and the animations or, besides, integrated network debugging. I mean this is not new at all (adb wireless for example) but it's an intelligent feature to integrate into the rom (especially as a developer). Its pretty good.
What do you all think about this rom? Have you already tried it?
The rom is good. I'm waiting for the next nightly release.
I had some problems with this nightly ... it forces many closes and reboots. Before installation i did a full wipe, cleared cache.
Now i switched to DK ICS Rom again.
But there i got problems too. Formatting /system in CWM manually solved my problems for the ICS-ROM. Perhaps someone could test, if it helps for problems on 7.2-nightlies too.
I'm very satisfied with it I'm using it since the release day and it's working flawless. Very stable no FC or anything like it. The animations and the ICS lock screen is what I really like also the performance is slightly better (I didn't benchmark it but I just have this feeling )

Have you wiped the Dalvik cache as well? As usual there are problems if you forgot to wipe it. This sound like I'm questioning a noob but don't be mad, it's just better to check something twice, then to have an unresolved issue.
For me, CM7.2 RC1 is the best room, the stability is good and the customization is excellent.
I'm also running 7.2 RC1 but after reading this topic I'm a bit confused, what ICS lock screen are you guys talking about? for me the lockscreen option haven't changed compared to 7.1:

When I was talking about the ICS lock screen I had in mind the option under the Settings>CyanogenMod Setting>Lockscreen>Style Options>Lockscreen Style>Ring option and then in the same menu under the "Ring-Lock Style" choose "Holo Style" which has the look of ICS lockscreen

Ah thank you, i didn't notice the extra options once you choose the ring style ...cool.
The only issue I have with CM7.2 RC1 is Wi-Fi connection. When I started my wifi it connects to the hot spot it obtain the IP address but the is no internet connection. Sometimes I just turn of and on the WiFi and it's working but sometimes I have to reboot my phone. I'm not sure where lies the problem, whether is the phone or my home hotspot (usually there are no problems with my PC to connect so I'm more sure to be the phones fault)

Hi,
The CM7.2RC1 seems to be quite good.
However, I have lost brightness control completely. Notification power button is not working and when trying go to Display in Settings I am getting FC.
I upgraded from CM7.1.0 (stable) without wipe out.
Anyone have similar issue?
Nevermind. Just updated to ICS and things looks so much nicer, despite the camra and theter are not working yet.
Wifi Issues
CM 7.2 RC1 is almost flawless. The only issue I've had is connecting to Wifi. The connection is SLOW and times-out often. It doesn't matter where I'm at, or who's wifi I'm on, and I have checked the D/U speeds with other devices to confirm it's working... so I'm pretty sure it's a ROM issue. I haven't been able to find any fixes, yet.

That is unfortunate. I do not seem to suffer from this issue. ROM is indeed flawless. But I stopped beating around the bush and updated to Beta CM9
All is perfect but wifi isnt as good as 7.1 but the difference isnt great.

SD Card Problem
Hallo guys. Hope you can help. So I flashed this rom and everything seems to be working fine. I set it up just the way I want it so I decided to do a nandroid backup. Now after I reboot it seems to be stuck in the "preparing sd card" stage. I'm sure this has been addressed before but I can't seem to find the right thread here. Can anyone point me to the right direction? Thanks!
I'm using CM72RC1 on BravoC. With stock kernel, gps locking is little longer. I change the kernel with CronModKernel, gps locking is faster.
Right now, I didn't have CM72RC1 stock kernel. Could someone tell me where to download it?

Its not miui. Its another OS the chinese have developed
So far my findings.
Very fast and fluid rom, really like it! Actually the video camera works on my phone its just a little laggy most likely an issue with the media_profiles.xml file.
This is pretty much MIUI with the benefit of android 2.3.7 as well as a drawer!!! I am going to use it for a while as my dd and see what else I find.
The camera is pretty nice, the photos are good, it appears the navigation buttons (home, menu etc) are too bright but this is likely part of the issue with the keys not lighting up.
Also the auto brightness is a bit dark, so I set it to manual brightness for now until this is fixed, also probably due to some smali files not being changed fully in framework.jar
Overall Awesome work, very happy there is a new rom out there now!
===EDIT===
I received a reboot after clocking over 1300mhz so I ended up installing the ILWT kernel and testing again, it appears to be smoother but might be too early to tell.
Also the link to install the google addons is not working can you please fix.

Yeah, sure you can flash anything in the world, but if it's not made for your phone, it might get bricked, and if it happens to work for some reason, of course it will be filled whit bugs.
I suggest everyone watches their language and attitude.
Consider this a warning
This is nice and smooth. Really like the way the app drawer works. Only major criticisms so far are a lack of Google calendar and no track pad wake. Calendar is easily sorted but wake would be useful.

Would looooove to have a full working tweaked version of this rom! Really hope it's updates. Very smooth and fast.

if anyone can tell me how to fix any issues with this rom it would be greatly appreciated
Well, I haven't noticed many issues.
1. Physical button backlight is too bright, like someone else said earlier
2. Folders in the app drawer; the icons aren't aligned properly.
3. No trackpad wake, like others have said.
4. Battery life seems bad.
Will edit as I run into more problems. This is definitely a good rom. Just needs some minor fixes.

From now on everybody please stay on topic. Period!

Going to give this a try when I get home, I've tried nearly all the 4.4 roms but haven't looked at this one yet. One question, does this have the stock CM kernel?
I'm trying this for the first time and can't find the settings for window animation speed ? Not in dev options like it usually is?

I am on the 4/16 and just went and tried again, themes work just fine for me. Have you tried applying the system theme and rebooting?

I had it on 4/21 but it actually wasn't having data drops, just signal display issues, I did a clean install and it fixed it, do you know where the option to make the system apps black?
