What about Chrome Beta?

i imagine a browser that has a inverted mode so all backgrounds are black will use the least battery as amoled screens use less power with darker colours
anyone know of a browser that you can have inverted colours?

I read somewhere a while back that it utilises hardware rendering (thanks why ICS only?) - so that may require more juice - I think

ICS Browser +

If you're on ics and want a good browser, if you have the phone in tablet mode <220 dpi then the stock chrome browser is spectacular, very close to desktop performance.

How to make your note smooth and fast?

Guys, recently just flashed kingdroid a I'm in search of the best rom. I'm disappointed however because my note scored fairly low in antutu benchmark test. Any one knows what makes the phone faster and get higher scores in benchmarks? Thanks.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

Ehh....benchmarks vary so much. It all depends on what you are running (app-wise) and such. Anything can change a benchmark score.
Does the ROM "feel" smooth? Does it run good for you? This is what matters most, not benchmarks.

What really borders me about the note is the scrolling. There will always be aome scrolling lag. No doubt the phone is fast, but why the scrolling is laggy? Eg. Whatsapp scroll.

Tried the bestest rom and kernel out there but it still cant eliminate the scroll lag. Well there might be some improvements but its not as smooth as sgs2. Anyone out there having smooth scrolling as good as sgs2?

Theres really no best KERNEL or CUSTOM ROM unless you try them all and test it on your device, EACH device acts differently, for instance ICS Stunner may be really awesome on a majority of Galaxy Notes but on mine it struggles.
You can't go wrong by trying out all different ROMS and match the suited Kernel, I know its time consuming but it's worth it in the end as you'd know which ROM and Kernel suits your needs.

I am on Kingdroid and I flash Franco r5. When I used it with Franco updater, I can run the phone at 1600 MHz with v2.0. I am happy with the performance compare with other ICS rom I tried. However it is still not as fast in scrolling as my present sgs2 with Malice rom.

By saying the "best" rom and kernel means that the majority of the community is using and trust. And i had tried ALL the ics custom roms but still the lag is there. Im coming to know maybe there is no way to eliminate the lag. If someobe out there claim that they have no lag, pls share a video thanks.

When I tried some ics roms I found them to be really laggy and there were a few bugs. If u want something really smooth I suggest u stick with GB for the time being until all tje ics problems get sorted out.

Just try Rocket ROm v4 i think the scrolling in RR roms is generally smoother compared to other roms as i have been on all ICS roms there and found RR roms has better scrolling generally. Asylum too is smooth with thor .10 kernel

try KingDroid ICS ROM v2.0 it osum

Lag on launcher

I was wondering if there is some kind of "lag fix" for the Optimus 2x, because I have a very annoying problem with lag in the launcher. I changed the launcher several times and the problem always remains ...

What rom do you use
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda premium

The last one stable cm7 rom from the official site.

which ROM??which launcher are you using??
for me CM7 temasek 135.3 with symbiosis 1.3.1 kernel with guest toolchain fixed every lag...
when multitasking heavily i used to turn Zram ON (192mb).(also I used GO launcher EX....with every GO app and widget possible so my configuration was pretty high on memory consumption compared to other launchers)
give a try to windows 7 launcher as well..it is smooth as ****(you can also have widgets on that)
but be prepared to sacrifice a bit of functionality

Also install Chainfire3D. Boosts the performance too especially in launchers with transition effects.

Well at least that's what I noticed. You could try it out too. Try some applications without CF3D. After that install CF3D and run the same applications. Like I said, especially in launchers it eliminates the lag in transition effects. May just be a placebo but that always worked for me and significantly boosted the performance.

That's placebo, i think. Even author, Chainfire said, that due to magic strings, CF3D might won't work anymore on newer android versions.
But maybe it is side effect? Who knows...
Anyway, the buttery system from tonyp works well. Also you can use Superchatger starter kit with suoercharger script. Good Luck OP

I'm actually talking about CM7. Doesn't work on ICS and JB of course. The author of this thread uses CM7. That's why I recommended it.

[Q] CM9 (Fat'n'Creamy) vs. CM10 (JCSullins)

Hi,
I just thought it would be useful to start a thread focused specifically and exclusively on the pluses and minuses of the two great choices we have for our Touchpads.
I suspect a lot of us are sitting with CM9 nightlies and wondering which way to leap...what do people think? What are the benefits and issues with each?
Thanks.

I'd say that is more of a "Pro" than a "Con", in my opinion.

Even without flash support we can still install it and run it with native browser or Firefox.

I was noticing graphics errors with flash on CM10, either low FPS or scrambled looking flash elements. I also got this in other UIs in CM10 randomly. I went back to CM9 since I don't really see the benefit of CM10 at the moment.

I like cm10! Much smoother and faster! Graphics are great! Flash works great in both dolphin and puffin browser! My antutu scores were much better!

Try scripts like supercharger to make it smooth enough..
sent from my phone using hands and brain...

It can be quite smooth if you put a good 2.2 or 2.3.7 rom in it.Just dont use classy launchers that sport a dozen widgets and dont overload it with unwanted apps.
Also do a reboot before you sleep, so next day you run the phone clean of cached apps and other **** that makes it laggy after 2-3 days of use without reboot.Really if you do all this you wont have any probs while, surfing, chatting and listening to music, even iGO gps will run very smooth and you can hear music at the same time also. :laugh:
For games paly 2D or go buy some serious gaming phone!

use jimdem tweaks

simplemake you root your phone and then put gdx v030 or v031b

use ginger DX or froyo roms
