happier off not using cm. and havent tried the stock rom on my n5 either(booted first boot with a custom rom/root). who said cm is fast anyways? its not a rom built for speed, its a rom built for features.

Its just usually always felt the same speed at very least this is the first time I feel its a bit slower is all was wondering if it was just me or not.

you have enough posts now, and can ask in their thread. there will be a lot more cm users there to answer you. have you tried messing with the governor/scheduler? try ondemand/deadline, then set the ondemand governor with upthreshold of 98 and the sampling rate to 15000. that should give you a bit of a boost

Thanks I'll try that

Is the official MIUI ICS ROM stable?

I'm currently on the Bugless Beast ROM, and it is very stable and pretty much like the name says without bugs, I have yet to have a problem with it.
However I have been thinking of going to MIUI, but I don't know how stable and/or fast it would be compared to my current ROM.
So what is your opinion?
Anyone know?
Almost-stable but..
Too low available memory and low speed makes me use CM9.

MIUI is not as stable as the ics roms. I sometimes get lag such as the MIUI locker. There is still lots of bug. But it is stable enough for daily use.
But the recent update makes the contacts in small photos. So i switch back to codename android rom.
You can give it a try.

Thanks, I guess I'll just say with BB, I like ROMs fast and as stable as possible.
Although, according to the ICS ROM Benchmarks Nexus S List, there are two MIUI ROMs in the top five. Catalyst MIUI, one of my favorite ROMs, is a bit laggy. Perhaps, because it has Force GPU Rendering and Keep Launcher in Memory checked but then again I haven't tried it with those settings unchecked.
I would give it a try. It is really a beautiful ROM (something different).

I also love MIUI due to its interface
MIUI is still in early development, so the MIUI team does not optimize the rom so much.
That's why MIUI has sudden lag and is buggy.

You could try MIUIXperience! It's a great option for MIUI with several tweaks and themes. Awesome ROM with great battery life and performance.

I'm using catalyst and liking it. But does use a little bit to much memory. Heard super charger helps but looks to confusing for me to try it.

[Q] Best rom to up my nexus 10's performance

Okay so i have a nexus 10 and as most of you already know it is a fast tablet, but it is still kinda slow, in quadrant standard i could somtimes get it to bench above the one x. so i was wondering if you guys would tell me what i need to do to up its performance. I'm running cyanogen mod 10.1, i was thinking about going to paranoid or AOKP, but im not sure how well they do performance wise. I also want the rom to be pretty customizable also, im not sure what ''using a differant kernal'' means....or how to do it. Any help is appreciated

The AOKP PUB ROM for the nexus 10 has been great! There are tons of customization options as well. I have installed the Franco kernel and find the tablet to be much more responsive. This kernel is easy to install too, there is an app in the play store that let's you automatically flash the kernel to your device.
Thanks, so all I have to do is install the app....Im new to this and are one of those worried people who dont want to end up with a really nice $500 paperweight if you know what I'm saying?

Franco vs stock. Anybody compare?

Hey guys, I'm running odexed 4.4.2 ROM and I've been using franco kernel for a bit now, tried all versions from r15 to r23. I've noticed that my phone does get extra toasty when playing games, or doing anything intense, even playing music. Decided to revert to stock, and issue went away. Has anybody compared franco to stock as far as performance goes, and has anyone had same issues with heat?

It may get hotter, but battery life is worlds apart. Search better battery stats in xda and let it monitor your system. Franco's kernel has way less wakelocks I find.

heat isnt an issue, unless you are normally reaching the safety shut off temp of 100C at a regular basis. now, i highly doubt that you are getting anywhere close.

Thank you for the info guys. Do you run the official Franco build? Or the linaro one? I tried both, linaro seems to sound better as far as it being more optimized, but day to day, didn't notice much difference.

linaro is just a buzzword, nothing else. in reality theres no difference. googles toolchain(gcc) might even be slightly better/more optimized.

Franco kernel is at least as good as stock kernel for idle battery drain. Much better with SOT in darker environments due to brightness changes.
Your heat issue is due to FK allowing the cores to reach 70c before throttling. You can change this value with the FKU app. Free version does not currently support Hammerhead, But the paid version does, and it's worth a few dollars.
Sorry if it is a noob question lol, but what is sot?

Cm vs stock with mods

On my phone running stock with Franco kernel, xpossed gravity box, and Nova.
On past phones I always ran CM or a variation of CM. For the n5 with my current set of mods... What does cm have that I am lacking?
The answer most are thinking is flash and find out for yourself. Only reason I am not doing that is I feel the differences are probably minimal and currently my phone is running perfect. In the past lots of flashing around has left me needing to do more than a restore in cwm.
So if someone would be so kind to educate me I would appreciate it.

cm has many more bugs than your current build running. if you feel that you are lacking bugginess, than flashing cm should be a priority.
i think xposed + gravity box needs a lot of battery. with cm + cmkernel i got nearly 5h SOT. possible with xposed + gravity?

With my current a setup I only average 4 hrs. Less if I am using navigation and streaming music... That's closer to 3hrs.
So compared to the current setup cm will most likely give you better sot.

I disagree. Same kernel and everything, 5:30 on both. Doesn't really matter.

It usually goes bad when I am using waze, streaming Spotify, and on lte. During that I will also be texting, browsing fb, and making phone calls.
Except for gaming not much more strain can be put on the battery I don't think.

[Q] Safe to overclock?

Would it be safe to overclock to 2.8GHz with the CPU Governor as "intelliactive" and leave it there for normal use?
ROM: HD Revolution 5.5
Kernel: Faux
Probably.

With some tweaking it should be stable. My one question though... Why? Who needs that much power lol

The real question is why not? LOL. Honestly though I just like finding new things to do with my phone and coming from a locked Galaxy S4 I have to say I'm enjoying the amount of things I can do with this device that I couldn't on the S4. The extra 600MHz was because I was hoping it would drop any chances of lag with my favorite apps & Xposed which always seems to cause a delay or two for me. On the other hand I like squeezing what I can out of it. Same with my Desktop too, get maximum stable over clock and stick with it. ;D. If there's some downsides such as life shortage feel free to mention it though because I'd rather know early on than when it's too late. Sorta the point of this thread

I've got my i5 2500k overclocked to 4.3 GHz now stock voltage . As for life shortage its hard to say. I would monitor temps on stock vs over clocked and compare. As long as it doesn't get considerably warmer which for mobile would be 10° more or less you should be fine

Well with normal use it gets like 40-55 C (CPU) and during an Antutu benchmark just at the beginning it hit 75C sooo not very happy with that.... especially considering that's in the highs for a lot of desktop processors, can't even imagine how bad that must be for a phone processor LOL. It was @2.803 MHz with voltage of "1130" & ondemand governor. Not so sure as to what "1130" is based on though as I'm new to mobile over clocking, guess I'll figure it out tomorrow!
Edit: Forgot to include that just a few minutes ago I flashed a new kernel due to some random lag, old one never hit above 50 even on tests (with intelliactive). Also using ondemand/interactive now. Gonna re check the differences on those two governors tomorrow and decide which one I wanna go with! : D
