Well I'm not really experiencing a lot of lag, but it's not really smooth, even my old LG Optimus 2X running CM10 is smoother than my Nexus when scrolling through menus.
My nexus really lags a lot when scrolling through documents, and on the app drawer, especially in the widgets tab. Some games like NFS and beach buggy blitz doesn't run smoothy too.
So will a custom kernel fix everything? I don't really want to install custom ROMs.. I like how stock feel and I'm kinda sick of customizing like my LG.
Did you try disabling Background sync in Google Currents?
That should help a bit.

I cleared cache, and disabled the app altogether. Still doesn't help.
Coming from stock 4.2.1 switching to dirty aokp with Franko kernel I can say I don't really notice a difference in lag. 4.2.1 never lagged for me before and I can't understand what people are talking about. Maybe it's because I never experienced the previous versions before...
You can install Beach Buggy Blitz from Market. It is free game with great graphics. Then you can see lags, with gaming. And there is no solution for this.

Lag with a specific game is not general system lag...
All of these "lag" threads all go the same place; every random direction. No coherent information is ever formed..
I too would like to figure out how to get rid of the random lags after waking the device, during IO, just random other times while using the device etc.. I'll try a kernel, maybe a custom ROM at some point, maybe I've waited too long, but I've been using the stock rooted ROM. First device I kept the stock ROM on since I got my Nexus One, at least for a while
4.2.1 here with 0 lag. Currents background data WAS enabled, but I just shut it off. Thanks for the tip.
What kind of lag? While doing what? Without a proper description don't expect too much help.
Like everyone has said it is hard to tell without more information but generally custom kernels do provide better performance overall and therefor would probably be best for covering all the bases.
Like all machines aren't created equal, I don't seem to be experiencing any kind of lag on my device, as it is buttery smooth even in stock rom. I guess your device maybe running hot?
So I installed Franco on it, and lo and behold, the device got a lot more smoother, still running stock ROM.
But the battery is taking a plunge!! No idea why. Perhaps a re charge will solve problems.
It helps quite a bit but still nowhere near the smoothness of 4.1.2. Recent Apps button still takes a while to load for example.
My stock 4.2.1 is quite smooth, even better than a lot of custom roms. A different kernel improves it a bit, but not by much.

i lag too. I think it is because of lack of ram. I always have to manually close out all apps to make things smooth again.(hulu and netflix use alot of ram)
Hi
i thought we ought need to have some relaxation, fun talk thread around our 4x.
Instead of posting all over the forum how we are missing some functions, how we hate this phone, why not sit down together peacefully and talk about it without the fear of going OT?
So I'm creating this thread for O4X owners to share and talk about your life with O4X,, and what you love about it. Of course, show off what mods or any apps you have on your 4x, why you have it on!
From mods to lockscreen/homescreen wallpapers, lets start the talking! Remember this is also an introduction about you, say something about yourself too!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll start the dice rolling:
What i use the phone for:
4x to me is a companion that i can always go to to get information at my finger tips particular news & social networking. I also uses it as my camera (most of the time even when i have a DSLR).
With my Sony earphones LOVE IT AS MY MP3 PLAYER!!!!:silly: Also while driving my 4x is my satnav, google navigation and waze in particular.
When im travelling my 4x is literately the only electronic device i brings, besides its 5000mah portable charger and sony earphones. My 4X really is the only thing i ever need when abroad.:good:
What i do love about it?
The display is number 1:good::good::good::good:
Nice enough battery life.
ample internal memory:good:
Looks miles better than samsung's pebbles.:laugh:
Mods/Can't-live-without Apps i have:
CM10.1 - PowerAMP - InDrive - Titanium backup - NFC Task Launcher
I initially thought of staying stock to save me from all the headache moments there will be from modifying my phone. But when i saw that CyanogenMod is officially supporting 4x all that changed. CM10.1 has always been around my ears as THE ROM to use. Now after using it, i really understood why it is it so.
NFC Task launcher: If you hasn't have this app installed, download it now! Together with the NFC tags LG gave it really changed my driving experience. Now instead of fiddling individual settings when i gets into my car all i need to do is to tap the tag and everything is done.
Missing Functions
I don't know any
Your turn to speak now
So for what it is... writing sms, facebook and whatsapp, googeling and something of everything! less gaming many flashing The nice HD Screen is what I love most! The smoothness together with cm10.1 is awesome :victory:
what I dislike the dust grains under the awesome display and something is wrong with my phonespeaker (for hearing other by phoning)...
AND THERE ARE TOO LESS ROMS KERNELS AND MODS OUT THERE WHAT MAKES ME SOOO SAD :crying::crying:
Apps I use mainly are ES File explorer, dolphin browser, feeldy, go sms pro, whatsapp plus and Facebook!
Bought it for gaming. Was initially very disappointed. Downgraded to v10a which performs well, but drains so fast! Then after much waiting and pointless retries I got my BL unlocked and now its performing quite good thanks to custom kernels and Tegra overclock. Other than that I use it for emails, editing word docs, general browsing and photos. On kholks kernel for stock at present, but I keep restoring cm10.1 to test kernels for @laufersteppenwolf I like my optimus, and even more so because hardly anyone seems to own one
Sent from my rooted P880
I came from the SE Xperia X8, in the need of a better (performance driven) phone, which was also cheap. So i've found the 4x HD. Checked on xda about root and bough it
Now it's my daily driver wherever i am, school, home, vacation, everywhere
what i like: everything
what i dislike: LG's bad support, for example the fastboot problems...
hmm, showing off... i guess that'd be my Kernel and my ROM
from the first day i've had this phone, i knew i wanted to make my own ROM. The kernel was more a side product than planned
Apps i daily use: Whatsapp, BBS, Tegra Overclock, Hill Climb Race, Subway Surfers, and ADB of course
came from galaxy s2 hd lte, 4x hd is my first quadcore phone. at first it disappoints me, the camera is too weak on lowlight capturing front and back. love taking sceneries. gaming is not superb cause of minimal clocking of the GPU. curse on gameloft not optimizing their games for tegra user >.<, but the display its just great.
i recently flashed from stock to werewolf rom/kernel
while waiting for 3.4 kernel of kholk
and the results are so great. smoothness the ui of the new 4.2.2
well for now i can enjoy the my 4x thanks to Tegra Overclock app and the devs of Werewolf.
hope more custom roms and kernels come to our phone. calling out devs
Hi there,
This thread is an experiment, so far no "best ROM" threads were allowed on XDA. They've all led to flaming and mindless fanboyism. So to keep this clean, here's what a good post would look like:
[Name of the rom you're talking about, preferably link to the thread]
[How long have you been using it, with what kernel, how you use your phone]
[Pros of the ROM, features you use ( etc. Active Display, Locksreen Notifications)]
-
-
-
[Cons of the Rom]
-
-
-
[Few words from you, overall experience]
[Eventually, comparison with other ROM you used]
BTW: No need to use brackets, they're there to show you the layout. KEEP POSTS CLOSE TO THE LAYOUT !
MOST IMPORTANT THING : Things like " this rom sucks !!! it lags like hell !! battery drain !! Oh god it's so bad" are NOT a good criticism ! GOOD criticism would be "CPU keeps being stuck at low frequency sometimes, there's no trace of it in logs, I've checked my wakelocks but battery is still poor" . If you say " This rom is unstable" say what bugs you encoutered ! If you say "it has many great features ", say what features you use !
The point of this thread is to let other users know what to expect of each ROM, let them see differences between them. Not to make them confused because everyone says "XYZ is the best !! flash itt !!! "
Seriously guys... Don't write anything like this... just don't.
Be good users and thread is here to stay, be reckless and it will be prohibited once more ! Also, our device ROMs only !
So lemme start
Official Cyanogenmod 11 nightlies
I've been using it for around month now, with stock kernel, updating daily with every nightlie.
Pros:
-The most stable ROM for me. It has much less freezes and lags then other. Basically my phone dislikes p880-dev based ROMs, I believe it is faulty, other user report no such problems as mine.
-No CPU cores freezing at minimum frequiency ( again , problem that seems to affect me and only me :/ )
-Fast unlock times
-Demetris is doing hell of job, nearly every nightly updates kernel for our device with serious tweaks and fixes !
-For me, not even a single bug found !
Cons:
-Not the most feature rich, but has the basics
-No crazy optimization (Linaro, -O3, custom toolchains etc) but this is a minor thing, not really noticable
So I've been using this because my phone is somehow very unstable ( something is wrong with it ) and this ROM gives me stability to use it as a daily driver.
Alright, my turn
I'm running SlimKat
I've been running it for..... dunno... as soon as we had CM11 up and running properly
Am running my own kernel (none of the official (released) ones, though )
Pros
Beautiful UI (Dark Slim, reduced density,...)
Nice features (like SlimPie or heads-up)
Not resource hungry (Low RAM usage from framework)
Good performance
Grouper blobs
Cons
Some bugs here and there (But AFAIK they're all my own fault )
Now, a general info about this thread:
We are from now on allowing ROM comparison threads (at least for now, we are going to revisit this decision sometime later). But, comments like "xyzROM sux, abcROM iz da best!!!" are of no use, and can/will be considered spamming. I guess we're all mature enough to have a normal conversation without insulting other devs.
So please, let's keep it fact based
Greetings from Spain.
The best stock, Zaiden. Fast, stable, everything works fine, perfectly.
I've spent a week with nameless, well overall, although sometimes it freezes and gave lag, but fine. I think with the CM kernel v.10 Iodak do better, I think.
Today I put the CM11 nightly, 29/09, and was pleasantly surprised, very well. Super fast at all.
I am very new to the rom and although I have to use Google Translate, I learn a lot in this forum.
greetings
For me Beanstalk and Liquid Smooth's KitKat versions have performed the better, for Beanstalk i used the Werewolf Kernel since it's the one i normally use when i flash custom roms and has always given me the least issues with a good performance, but has its crashes as usual and camera wasn't recording at all. Recently i flashed Liquid Smooth and am working with its stock kernel, it performs very good, i don't play big graphics games i think (Clash of Clans and Tiny Death Star aren't exactly the most demanding games for android) but it hasn't crashed, no crazy reboots, apps don't error and fail close and also has a regular battery life which is hard to come by when flashing custom ROMs normally.
Just started using the Lego Rom. It's really nice. Also, "Your phone is now bricked" made me laugh
I really like the kernel tweak tool. I've been playing around with the settings to see how much on screen time I can squeeze out of my battery still on stock kernel. I'm thinking of trying out Wolf's kernel eventually.

Try it, it's pretty sweet. I think wolf said he would be back to continue it's development, and that he's just busy. The only thing that I found doesn't work, is taking a snapshot, and when you turn the phone on it's side, sometimes the messeges screen gets messed up, but other than that, everything works for me
Without tweaking the kernel, I got 3 hours of on screen time. I had wi-fi on the whole time, browsed reddit, and was messeging a lot.

It is better zaiben or magic rom for life battery?
I'm on Mahdi (1 Dec 2014) stock kernel
Pros:
- LED Notifications (best feature for any ROM)
- Pretty close to stock with features like OmniSwitch witch I dont use
- Battery friendly (~3h on-screen, wifi on most of the time, 2g mode, gps on most of the time) and most of the time fluid
Cons:
- Sometimes it hangs when loading/using apps (if they are updating it gets even worse)
- Sometimes it needs a day to unlock (screen doesnt wake up)
So with all the flashing around I've done on my Nexus 4, I've come to the conclusion that some ROMs seem to be fast, and smooth, and some ROMs seem to be a bit laggy at some places. The lag is more noticeable while sending messages ending with Emojis on whatsapp, while using Swiftkey. Haven't been able to figure out what makes a ROM fast or slow, but let me list what ROMs I find fast, and which ones I find slow. Maybe someone else can make some sense out of it and find the root cause? Is it toolchain? Dalvik optimizations?
P.S: This thread is not here to compare ROMs. In fact, I *really* want to use the ROMs that I've classified as slow, hence I want to get to the bottom of this. These perceptions are based on me running the ROMs on Dalvik, and not ART.
Fast/Smooth ROMs:
Simple AOSP
Vanir
Carbon ROM
Purity
Liquid Smooth
Nameless ROM
Rastakat
Slow/Laggy ROMs:
Mahdi
Slim
crDroid
Found another way to reproduce how I classify ROMs as fast and slow. In a slow ROM, do a clean flash, and when entering your wifi password, if you tap the keys really fast on google keyboard, you'll notice that it will lag, and the vibration will lag too. This lag isn't present in fast ROMs.
CM11S is smooth too
I think smoothness is decided by maby factors kernel, cpu governer freq etc. Maybe you should use same settings and maybe even same kernel to compare different roms. And same set of apps.

If I may I find that some Roms have a noise while using headphones in call. I noticed in purity and cm11. Noise is gone in 4.4.4 stock unless opening hangouts (only app I tested with). I also find the call quality to be less and more dropped calls on cm11. I have been on cm11 for a while and before that purity. I haven't tested many Roms.
It has something to do with kernel mahdi s a bit slow as it s packed with features but with some simple tweaks with my favorite kernel the ROM flies.
Ls is the fastest of all though an amazing ROM.

Slim laggy and slow... L O L
This is a very foolish and silly thread l am going to stop there
lol slim is not slow or laggy
Yeah, too bad I don't have any way to quantify slow or fast. Only place I notice it is that the keyboard gets laggy in the slow ROMs
Some ROMs by default have different animation scale settings (in developer options). Default stock is 1.0x, but I've seen some ROMs that 0.75x or 0.50x as their default. This can make certain ROMs feel faster "out of the box".
I've tried maybe 20-25 different Nexus 4 ROMs in the past few weeks, and frankly none of them have felt slow or laggy, and I've never even tried switching to ART.

Yep, but I always set animation scale at 1x. Also, the lag is evident in opening the recents menu, and typing on keyboard. Even on google keyboard, if you have haptic enabled, you can feel that sometimes the keys lag, and sometimes the haptic feedback lags.

Which slimkat build number did you test ? (and same questions applies for other roms)
How did you test it ? MultiRom ? Or Clean install after wiping the device ?
I personnally use Slim roms since 3.0, and didn't feel lags, especially on my Nexus 4
(it's laggy in fact on my Nexus S, but, not the same hardware !).
What a pity for a recognized contributor to provide so false informations.

I am on latest Mahdi and experiencing the very same LAG you were talking about. Swiftkey behaves absolutely erratic.

Something you shouldn't have been doing for at least one year, TITS (that is to say) since KK was released.
True performance is on ART. If someone wants to stick with the old fart for xposed it makes sense, but one can't judge a ROM basing on keyboard responsiveness.

Hey guys. I usually wouldnt have made a thread like this, but honestly, i am getting tired trying rom after rom to find the one that works. I am the sort of guy who switches phones pretty often because i like what Devs at XDA are able to do to customize them. So i have recently started using higher end phones, and coming from mid-rangers i expected awesome performance and lag free experience. My last device was a one plus 2. After switching to mi5(which has a better processor), i have been experiencing lag spikes with rom. None of them work perfectly smooth, I would go to the depth of saying that my old Nexus 5 provides much smoother experience compared to this. Surprisingly, this is not the case with miui. The stock Miui rom aswell as my current rom(cpMIUI) are both super smooth(as is expected out of a sd820). I am stock android guy though, also google camera port doesnt work on miui. I just wanted to confirm if it was just my unit or is everyone facing similar issues. Buying a sd820, i dont expect something as simple as pulling down the notification bar to be laggy. Also. this issue is more prominent with Lineage OS and Lineage OS based roms. I found AOSP rooms to be generally smoother, but still, laggy enough to notice. This really wasnt the case with OP2, and i honestly wouldnt have switched if it wasnt for the amazing camera of Mi5(only with GcamMod ). Any help would be much appreciated. PS: I have tried custom kernels, even those which overclock this sd820 to normal frequencies. But no luck . I really dont have the budget to switch phones rn, and i would like to stick to mi5. Hope someone can help.

All lags, freezes and scroll stutters caused by kernel. All oreo kernels based on HMP scheduling with perf daemon. And don't know why, but it cant provide smooth FPS while ui drawing (maybe some bug with frequency drops). So, 90% roms based on Oreo will lag while drawing UI all time (you can check it in dev settings > Profile GPU Rendering). Some roms trying to avoid this bug, like LOS, AEXMod with some tweaks in governor. This 2 roms much smoother than other. Or you can change default governor from Interactive to Conservative (root required). It brings massive boost on ui drawing smoothness. Or try something based on EAS kernels (Purefusion, JDC AOSP). But these roms based on 8.0 Oreo.

Thanks for a constructive reply. I am not using LOS because of the fingerprint delay bug, also i found LOS to be the laggiest of them all. But i recently installed Cosmic os 8.1, and this one seems to be rendering fine. It is using the priima kernel i suppose, with interactive governors and cfq for io scheduling. Also, i just checked, it has oc'ed the sd820 to normal frequencies (2.15 and .16)
Also, i have tried Floppy kernel, based on all 3, Google, linaro and ubertc. Also, i tried switching the governor to zen(the one i am aware of thats made to make your ui smoother). This issue is not only persistent with oreo roms, but also the nougat roms. But i have been happy and impressed by cosmic, but i will keep on switching roms and hopefully would be able to provide some feedback to the XDA community.

Absolutely yes! People were blaming me also for using antutu, because I had this doubt, then discovered that the kernel uses a strange sort of cpu scheduler which causes a performance drop of 20/25%, (still can't fix switching performance profile) results were different switching to a custom kernel. I think that people when create new roms they just steal LOS kernel, so that's why this issue occurs in more than one rom.
Anyway I also prefer the stock android camera, and I like to use the "classic" way instead of magisk thing (never liked that), just download GCam, then remove in the framework folder the camera_experimental.jar (or something called like that) and you should be fine, there are some little bugs too but is is usable.

When i said it needs some tweaks, that is because it works in a strange way, the performance profile in the "Battery" section of LOS needs to be set to something higher, that controls the CPU, meanwhile there I also used an app called "Spectrum" that lets you control the GPU performance profile (Even though it should be control CPU), you need to set all of those to "Balanced"

Hey guys. I usually wouldnt have made a thread like this, but honestly, i am getting tired trying rom after rom to find the one that works. I am the sort of guy who switches phones pretty often because i like what Devs at XDA are able to do to customize them. So i have recently started using higher end phones, and coming from mid-rangers i expected awesome performance and lag free experience. My last device was a one plus 2. After switching to mi5(which has a better processor), i have been experiencing lag spikes with rom. None of them work perfectly smooth, I would go to the depth of saying that my old Nexus 5 provides much smoother experience compared to this. Surprisingly, this is not the case with miui. The stock Miui rom aswell as my current rom(cpMIUI) are both super smooth(as is expected out of a sd820). I am stock android guy though, also google camera port doesnt work on miui. I just wanted to confirm if it was just my unit or is everyone facing similar issues. Buying a sd820, i dont expect something as simple as pulling down the notification bar to be laggy. Also. this issue is more prominent with Lineage OS and Lineage OS based roms. I found AOSP rooms to be generally smoother, but still, laggy enough to notice. This really wasnt the case with OP2, and i honestly wouldnt have switched if it wasnt for the amazing camera of Mi5(only with GcamMod ). Any help would be much appreciated. PS: I have tried custom kernels, even those which overclock this sd820 to normal frequencies. But no luck . I really dont have the budget to switch phones rn, and i would like to stick to mi5. Hope someone can help.

Hello, I have the same problem. My MI 5 only works on miui. Any other newer rom with android Oreo brings me problems, slow looks like snapdragon 4xx. Game performance gets horrible. But they are only in the most recent roms, because in the stable JDC Team 7.1.2 rom it behaves absurdly fluid and fast, in Lineage 14.1 as well. I do not know what causes this but I can not use any more Oreo roms. I prefer Pure Android but can not use the new roms at the moment, I should settle for the nougat or miui roms. Well, I'm not saying that the new roms are bad, the work of the developers is wonderful, congratulations to everyone, but something in the new roms does not behave well.

Try the cosmic os. It seems to be working amazingly well. Also Los never worked for me, full of stutters and the ofc the fingerprint delay on lockscreen issue. Also yeah, jdc aosp should work, in my experiments, all AOSP based roms are working fine, there is some issue with Los kernel, and hence with all roms based off of it.
