Sorry for troubling you guys, I want use a custom rom on my wildfire.can u plz suggest which custom is more stable?
Its personal taste. I use CM7 stable which is (as the name suggests) stable. It depends if you want AOSP on sense
almost all CM are buggy in their own way! use android 2.2 roms from CM

Just so you know - FM and Video Recording do not work in CM6.
cm 7.0.3 seems fine for me and everything works
I'm finding CM7 buggy in the long run also. Have this regular problem where opening messages leaves me with a blank screen which sometimes appears if I rub the screen up and down.
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

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.

Location works in cyanogenmod roms so is there a way to get it to work on jandycane, an aosp Rom?
You have to move to CM to get the location feature!
I'm pretty sure there was a way of doing it, but thanks.
In some roms, developers put in a special mms.apk that has an option at the top of the settings called something like "Appearance Settings" that allows you to change pretty much all of the colors in the app, and add bubbles to the conversations.
I know one rom that had this was PACman rom 4.1.2. Once it went to 4.2.1 it was gone.
I tried the one from this ROM - Vanilla Rootbox 4.2.2. Since it and the rom I am using are both 4.2.2 I figured it would work, but it just crashes at startup.
I'm using the latest CM10.1 4.2.2. Does a compatible version of this exist out there? And if not yet, is there a thread or something that I can keep checking on its development? I simply don't even know the name of it, even though I have searched quite a bit for it.
Thanks
I've been using CM 10 and 10.1 nightly builds on my Verizon GNex for quite some time without issue. Yesterday I decided to try the Carbon Rom(4/22 nightly, 4/23 nightly and 1.6 Stable) and had the same issue on all.
I get no WiFi, or 3G/4G signal. If I try to launch the browser it flashes on the screen for a second and then disappears. It's basically unusable for me. I did a clean flash to make sure nothing from the CM 10.1 Rom would cause any issues but still have the same problems.
I really wanted to check out that Rom because it looks pretty nice and is supposed to be really fast.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try? The Rom itself installs fine, but once it's installed I have those issues.
I looked through a bunch of the forum pages for the actual Rom itself on here and didn't notice anyone else reporting these issues so I'm not sure why I'm seeing this. I've installed other Roms other than CM without issues.
Thanks,
Ben
what kernel are you using mate ? did u full wipe.?
i am not having any issues with it.. using the kernel that comes with it

1 question, did you flash gapps package? Because I had that problem when I just flashed Carbon ROM ... Wanted to check out if there's a file explorer in the ROM itself ...

Right now I'm trying the kernel that comes with Carbon. I did do a full wipe prior to installing the Rom.
I downloaded the Xylon Rom yesterday and that installed with no problems at all. So not sure why Carbon is having these issues on my phone.
i am using ak kernel 207
i used the kernel with the rom and had no issues with it also..but ak kernel + carbon = best battery
and the pa setting added now is a icing on the cake,i dont need anything else
WiFi is not working at all, I used TWRP, wipe and advanced wipe, but still can not succeeded.
Well, I am using the latest Carbon Nightly with SmittyV Kernel (also the latest one) and it's working pretty well
Not perfect because my phone sometimes shuts down randomly and it still has some issues like when using the Carbon Active Display with the default messaging app (the "unread message" notification doesn't go away even after I reply to the message and close the app with the back button) and it sometimes freezes the phone (making me have to remove the battery to turn it off and then reboot).
Other than that I'm not having any problems with Wi-Fi. Try to install another rom then install again the carbon rom wiping everything in both flashes
