Thanks,

I have been using it for a week or so now.
Pros:
Smoother
Google Now
Feels a lot more friendly compared to ICS (Maybe cause its slightly faster)
Cons:
Battery life is slightly slower, maybe its not optimized yet or whatever I keep reading
I dont like the new phone and sms apps.
Camera is big improvement.
However, do you guys feel it is lag?
Especially when flipping launcher(sslauncher for me).
Other cons:
Volume wake and smaller navigation bar in "Lt30p themes and apps"is not supported JB version.

XV stock launcher is also a little bit lag
There is a great problem in clear audio+, the volume is not stable, the volume may drop and up suddenly
On Xperia T with JB.
Pros::
Its ****ing awesome. Its like upgrading from froyo to gingerbread. Theres so many new things.
Its much smoother.
I LOVE the locksceen.
Battery life seems to be better for me although I didnt use it for too long with ICS
Cons:
The camera zooming seems to be really bad, dont know if its just me.
jb for me
Jb on my xperia tl
pros: Google now
smoother
better camera
screen navigation when long press(miui like)
cool lock screen
better keyboard
Cons: Google now search bar is a widget and takes up space
battery life drains faster
when you move apps on the home screen they just auto create folders instead of moving around on the screen
it's 4.1.2. not 4.2.1.
Ive experienced a few lags when scrolling on home screen. And i want a black dialer and contacts back!
Pros:
- smooth and fast, no lag
- camera
- google now
- no need to install CM 10 anymore
- battery OK (one day for heavy usage with wifi and data always on)
Cons:
- locksceen easily unlock in the pocket if no PIN
- missing increasing ring
- phone app still loads slow (comparing with CM10)
Overall a very good experience and I advise the upgrade. until stable CM10.1 or official 4.2.1 I will stay on this ROM.

Pros:
- smooth and fast, no lag
- camera
Cons:
Battery drains much faster, with the same app config,3g, corp mail the battery reach 15% at 5pm, with ICS was reaching at 8 9PM.
A lot f BT issues with car audio.
Pros
- UI
- Camera
- Speed
- New Features
Cons
- Huge glitches with update
- Removal of seconds in Timer settings
- Occasionally glitchy on the Homescreen
you can get in the google now by long pressing home button
What's with those stupid lines when you swipe to unlock the lockscreen sorry but I fined that ugly the hole UI is a bit strange looks more like Motorola on Gingerbread not what I was expecting
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium
Pros:
- speed
- smoothness
- more RAM an better multitasking
- slightly better UI (nice lockscreen but I wish it had swipeable notifications with missed calls, SMS, etc.)
- new beautiful themes
- amazingly fast camera
- I like new Dialer and SMS app even if it's white
Cons:
- loads of bugs, glitches and similar
- battery life much shorter than on ICS
- I have problems with radio and wakelocks caused by Keypad service and SMSDispatcher waking up my phone gazillion times whichever JB ROM I install (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138980). That's why I got back to ICS.
- not worth updating for now, we should wait for future releases and bugifixes. It's just a first release
Oh sweet!
Press and hold the Home button
It launches Google.
Very nice thing.
BTW Why this forum is displayed greyed out on Stock Browser?

I want to report I just moved apps to the sd card.
Than rebooted and boom! The phone works fine so no hard reset needed.
I am happy I was able to deal with it with my knowledge at least.

Don't even need to hold it. Just swipe up from home button.

After my huge niggles after the update, I moved my apps to sd card, rebooted...
And it works well now.

Yes, that works, as I found out lots of times whilst playing temple run...
I also noticed that the headphones output is not really good in quality.
Clear Audio is nice but it cuts the volume and is a bit unnatural.
This is to be fixed I guess.
All in all JB is sweet but Sony traditionally screwed it here and there.
I really wonder what's going on. This is a norm now and I don't really like the fact that
those updates are usually half baked.

I thought this at first with Claudio, but found disabling it, setting your eqs to your preference then enabling it again, it behaves better, and keeps the eq settings.

LG D958, Stock 4.2.2. When using useful function "hide front buttons" in specific apps, I've noticed some problems with performance, especially in graphics-rich apps. Tried gfxbench, onscreen mode 25.6 FPS vs 33.1FPS. The same with Real Racing 3 etc and it become difficult to play. Seems like stuttering in render. I doubt that the extra 72 pixels may affect performance so much. So it would be a disappointment if the problem is not corrected in 4.4 update, this function become useless in 3D apps . Is it possible and can anyone send report to LG about this bug? Thanks.

Hate

- bottom and top frame to big
I only hate is top and bottomframe
What I like:
- The Fingerprint Sensor
- The big 5.5" Screen
- The overall Design
- The general Speed

- No Optical Image Stabilization
- Bottom Side is a bit sharp near the USB Port
- No DoubleTap to wake Function
Like:
Almost everything. It's fast, has unbelievable battery life, great camera and just beautiful.
Hate:
EMUI. This little beast needs pure Android to be perfect. I hate that I can't use GravityBox to customize that damned UI.

- Sound quality in video recordings is terrible. Audio is muffled, boosted and lacks resolution (sometimes sound like it's underwater); (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Display - has color shift even at a small angle change, mostly noticeable on white background with screen brightness below 50%. Is really annoying if you're used to quality displays;
- Automatic brightness - in dark environment it dims the screen too much and the screen brightness needs to be increased manually (and it doesn't have automatic learning based on previous adjustments) - in normal light and in sunlight is working fine; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Photos taken with primary camera have over saturated reds and shadow areas are too bright; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Camera settings - does not keep some previous settings, like if you set HDR off, and switch to video and back or exit the app for some time, is on auto again; Some would like to set HDR always off, it makes photos too artificial/over processed; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Slow motion videos - can't select frame rate - quality and bitrate too low; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Power button - needs to be pressed together with volume up for 10 sec. for the power menu to pop up; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Speakers balance needs to be "1 click" to the left to sound centered ( I think the top speaker is smaller than the bottom one); (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
- Fingerprint sensor is positioned too low, hard to reach, is not in a natural/easy accessible position;
- Stock recovery - doesn't have option to recover/reflash stock firmware, only wipe data; (fw. vers. RMX3311 A16)
If you agree about any issue in this list, and you think it can be fixed (software issue) please send an email to [email protected] and mention it. I've already did. The more complaints they receive, maybe, the faster they will try to fix it.
I agree with everything.
Sound recording quality is still not fixed.
Display do you still have the original screen protector?
Auto brightness is fixed on new update.
@wizard8400 Wow! So much detailed!! Nice. Provide these feedbacks in Realme bug section.
MIC issue is the reason, i dropped buying this. Hopefully they fix it for you guys.
Also for display, since you mentioned it happens below 50%, could it be cz of PWM dimming? Try DC dimming and check color shift.
how can we check the pwm ?
