I'm not sure what I should expect when Google releases it for this phone...
Is this the reason we do not have any GPU accelerated ROMs?
The sensation has roms and kernels with sense 3.5 and GPU oc to 320..
I am guessing this GPU UI rendering was ported from ICS.. sensation users are getting like 60 fps in their UI and app drawer.
Why cant we get the same performance with nearly the same hardware?
Shouldn't we be able to use the same thing they did?

Is it now possible to implant gpu rendering into our roms with the new source code? I want to be as smooth as the iphones!

I'm pretty positive our phone does have hardware acceleration yet, but with ICS we should.
I never thought of how much faster one rom was from anouther untilled I looked at a phone I haven't used for a week or so. It has weapons 3.0 on it and I have been using hellfiresandwitch on the phone I've been using for the last week or more. The difference in speed is something.

Because any ICS ROM for the O2X/G2X doesn't support HW acceleration. The drivers aren't released for it yet (or ever will be by the looks of it) and this is what keeps the ROM from a blazing fast UI.

Taking that into account, which ICS ROM (out of those that you have tried so far) would you say is the quickest despite the lack of HW acceleration?
so now with the kernel sources of the one xl can multitasking truely be fixed?
What's wrong with it?

I haven't had any problems with multitouch. Make sure you're disabling HTC gestures under the "Display and Gestures" settings. If you don't disable it, multitouch is limited to two points. Disabling this feature enables 10 point multitouch.

Not multi-touch, multitasking

lol multitasking was already fixed by Calkulin, but he hasn't released his ROM yet
Currently they found the framework issue that messes with multitasking and once combined with 2.xx ROMs that increase available RAM to the user it should drastically help with multitasking.

4.0.4 already greatly improved multitasking. I tried going back to 4.0.3 and it was impossible.
ive gotten up to 440mb free ram on cm9 but noticed it still wasnt multitasking correctly, possibly because it uses the htc kernel?

Because the kernel in CM9 is based on 4.0.3 which has the butchered multitasking.
They worked wonders as far as sense 4 being a resource hog in 4.0.4. It's twice as smooth literally, and has more free ram. I'd love to know where the fat was trimmed. Amazing what software tweaks can do.

No, it has a revised version of sense and new settings for multitask because it is the new 2.x base.
And yes it is a big improvement. There was nothing wrong with it other than the settings were very aggressive.
CleanRom 4.1 or 4.2 with the level 2 multitask mod works great and it is based on 1.x base. The mod just changes the parameters. Old kernel new settings works great. So it really wasn't sense, just tuned wrong.
I recommend just joining us on the new CR4.5. It is the best Rom out there.
If you want the old base, use CR4.1. Bunches of mods, incredible battery life! 4.1 is probably the best all around as far as bugs, there really aren't any! 4.2 is ok, but not as smooth overall compared to 4.1.
I recently tested all radios for speed, and 1.91 is the clear winner. I posted all my results in the CR4.5 thread.
Standard edition is fine for daily driver use.

Which kernel/base is that Rom built with?

Only 4.0.3 roms, says so in the OP.
Sent from my sexy white HTC One X on T-Mobile
I've read many people say 4.0.4 is like 4.0.3 with the multitasking mod, but I completely disagree with that statement. I tried going back to 4.0.3 with multitasking mod to try out the Beastmode kernel. While the 192min/1200max underclock gave me extremely good battery life, the multitasking felt horrendous after playing around with 4.0.4.
I was on the galaxy s2/3 forums and I found alot of slim and basic roms, aka slimics and slimbean. I'm very interested in getting a Rom that could potentially be 60mb, or maybe 70mb due to our qHd display. What would it take to begin porting or building one from source?

I understand how bloated sense is, and every single rom I'm talking about is aosp based.
Nothing? Nobody has any experience with this stuff?

Take a look at the hypernonsense threads. They are pretty small. That was 1 of the main goals of the original dev to get those Rom fingerprints as small ad possible.

And most of that size reduction is just stripping out apps so the user can add only what he or she wants to to.
Hyper NonSense also stripped out Rosie and all most Sense UI framework, essentially leaving it as a defacto AOSP rom (even though it was still Sense at it's core) That removed a good amount of size, but the bulk of the small size was that it came with just the bare essentialls for it to boot. If you wanted SMS, you had to add the SMS app you wanted. Etc etc etc
That said, it worked great. I loved that ROM for several months.
Check codename Lungo. I have not tried it but probably is what you are looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1930403.
codename Lungo does look pretty good. ill have to try it.

Hi,
I use Codename Lungo since very recently. I like it so far. I enjoy the fact that you can chose your own apps via packages.
Any other light ROMS? I'm mainly looking for battery life and not too much gimmik.
Best ROM
The best and lightest rom I ever used and belive me i tried them all it's hypernonsense.It keeps the good sense camera , it's light, I ususaly have 300 MB RAM free, the battery life it's the best.I usualy get 2 days with 3,6-4 hrs of sceen time.
My settings are :2G only , minimum brightness , data disabled, wifi off when phone is sleeping , autosync every 30 min.
I liked albino's and bruce ROM too but there are still bug's , and MHL isn't working.
Worst ROM's for performance and battery were Sense 4.x ROM's but i liked the interface and customizations.
Sense 3.6 are a little lighter but still eat the battery and slow the phone.
Hypernonsense just flyes and has all the features.
So I've tested many roms here on xda and I can clearly say that I couldn't find any bugless fom. (No offence for devs) When I used to usd HTC Desire there was an oxygen rom which was really bug free. (I've reached 1000hrs uptime without even single FC) Does rom like this exist for sensation? I don't care about android version.

That's not really true EVERY Rom no matter the dev or company has bug's. That's why updates are always released . Since your asking for a bug free rom i am using a sense 4.1 rom with no Major bug's well tbh i been using for 1 week and not any bug's i found with anything and i have tested it to the max over clocked to 1.7GHz and runs like a rocket. Let me know if you want ill upload to dev host x
Albinomans latest is basically bug free
Only MHL doesn't work

No FC doesn't mean there is no bug. It might also be that you haven't used all the features yet. There are bugs where something doesn't work in the intended way, but without FC.
Any product, just any, has to have bugs. Do you know how many testers are paid worldwide?!
