[FIX] Lag fix for cm10 based roms (cm10, paranoid android, jellybro) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I originally posted this in the Galaxy nexus forums, but its not device specific as far as I know and works on both my nexus 7 and galaxy nexus so I'll post it here. Someone let me know if this works please.
Original Thread: [FIX] Lag fix for cm10 based roms (cm10, paranoid android, jellybro)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1875486
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.
Heres a version specifically for the s4 powered samsung galaxy s3.

seems interesting, if i didnt just go back to Sammy I'd try this out

Can someone try this and let me know how it goes?

Oh OK. Seems that siii may have some device specific fixes then. One more tester on paranoid would be appreciated though. Also can someone try it on cm10. I wonder if kexec or the locked boot loader makes a difference for people who haven't unlocked.

i believe the reason it worked on your GNex and Nexus 7 is because they are so similar.

[MOD][NEEDS WORK] Screen Rotation Animation

PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO COMPLETELY FREEZE YOUR PHONE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU USE THESE FILES AND YOU MISS YOUR NEXT MEETING.
I was playing around and after reading and searching through some threads, finally got somewhere with something I've wanted since my iPhone days - Screen rotation animations.
Attached are 2 files you can unzip, then copy and paste into /system/lib/ using root explorer.
This will make your screen animate when it auto rotates.
BEWARE. I have had limited success with Home Launchers that can rotate. The phone completely locks up and you have to restore from a backup.. if anyone can help figure this out i'd greatly appreciate it.
I'm looking for a few brave testers to let me know if it works with the ROM of their choice. I have not tested it on stock yet, it may work perfectly. Who knows.
Hmm....what kind of animations are they? Can't imagine other than just the stock flop when u rotate ur phone.

That's what this is...these files are taken directly from the at&t note, and on my phone running nexusMod 4, the screen rotates just like the note does.
hmmm....mine does not..still more like a flash...but opening my web browser seems smooth...rotations no different...pasted in /system/lib..then fixed permissions..?

I'm on NexusM0D 4 as well, but it soft bricked my phone. I tried using Root Explorer as well as an ADB push and neither worked. Had to push the original files back to phone via ADB since phone boot looped at the Samsung logo
I had the brilliant idea of replacing the files when the phone was still running...

Stock kernel doesn't allow custom boot animations - you'll need to flash a kernel that supports it. Check the dev section for them.
Will that trip my flash counter?

Not if you use recovery to flash as opposed to Odin. Plus there is a thread somewhere in dev I think with info that allow you to reset the counter.

It's got a modified ramdisk which gives you the ability to use custom boot animations and init.d support.
Seanscreamz' latest ROM thread also has links to similar kernels, but they may have been adjusted further to work more specifically with his ROM; mohan's kernels are pretty much stock.

Yep. Been staring at the CM9 bootscreen for about 10 minutes. I'll give it a few more before I pull the plug. Could be that using the buid.prop and updater-script from Rem ICS is causing some issues. lol
EDIT: It booted. Give me a few to play and I'll update.
Update: No launcher. TW is not playing nice. Most likely because of the CM base. Pull down notifications work but that's about it. Rebooted fixed perms now stuck watching CM bootscreen again.

I used to run inverted on my S3 all the time because of the battery saving it provided for the amoled display. Since this is a super lcd display, that's a none issue, and I'm trying to run everything white just because I can.
I'm still running stock because it's so quick. On my S3, stock touchwiz was so slow and buggy I had no choice but to install a new rom.
However, there are many more roms available in the international m8 forum correct? Is there a way to tell if they'll work with our phone? Or do they have to say it's specifically compatible with the Verizon variant? The last thing I want to do is flash something and have it missing the CDMA band needed to get data. Also would super CID basically allow flashing of any rom we wanted.

They'll say if they work for Verizon or not. SuperCID would allow you to flash any carrier Rom, but I doubt you would get data or anything, maybe 1x...that's more for like if you want to take your phone to t-mobile then you would be able to flash a tmobile Rom and be good to go (whether you get LTE or not on tmobile is a diff story).

Yup, stock rooted. Love it. I don't usually flash too often anyway. Just want something as stable and bug free as possible. So I'm thinking I'll probably end up running bonestock or cleanrom. I'm also extremely intrigued by the gpe rom.
I'll start flashing soon, but I generally don't like flashing too often.

Are you on the old firmware or radios still?

I have flashed it just to see how it ran but google everything an no blinkfeed is a total bust for me..

Plus I ran bonestock for a while at 1st. I have tried all Roms an that is the best stock ROM he has lots of things enabled VZW hides. Only thing he is missing is eps mode but that is so easy to add via XML ...all you need to do its add another line for a quick setting tile like the rest of them an use value 30. Reboot an then your bone stock will have everything you need plus on the house teathering.

Nope, I don't have the original firmware.
I think my sister also updated hers.
Andy has done fantastic work on his roms since his S3 days. He does a great job adding in hidden features and keeping the rom as stock as possible. Really hope he continues developing for this device.

Why would you want to go backwards? Firewater issues?

No a lot of people r asking in my firmware/radios thread I started are asking for old radios cause they were stronger for them. With a pull from a phone that still has this we can make a flashable old radios. An some else wants the old firmware to create another safety net for everyone.

Got it, I think a friend of mine is upgrading soon, if he gets an m8 and it isn't updated out of the box I can pull it from that.
