Very smooth! All it needs is the call and lock circles aligned and its go time.
I have actually had to random reboots and my screen is flickering a little when just on the home screen. Its not perfect for sure but not bad for the first nightly, at least in my opinion.
I'm getting the flickering on the homescreen and whenever I'm using the Swype beta keyboard... everything else is working great! If I can get the damn flickering to stop, this Rom will become my DD...

Checking "Disable HW Overlays" in developer options gets rid of the flickering for me as a workaround.

That seems to have worked, thank you!
I'm curious, though, will turning off HW overlays reduce the effectiveness of the JB Project Butter tweaks?

Why, I'm glad you ask! I was just about to let everyone know that disabling HW overlays (or, also, changing debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer from three to 2 in build.prop) will severely impact graphical performance. It may get rid of the flicker, but your performance will take a hit.
My biggest frustration with Jelly Bean on our device thus far that keeps pushing me back to CM9 has been that it is WAY behind in graphical smoothness when Jelly Bean's primarily advertised feature is the graphical smoothness that Project Butter provides. I have to say that I just flashed this nightly build though and it's the smoothest experience I've had yet in Jelly Bean. It's not quite up to par with stable ICS in smoothness but is getting closer.
At the moment, the solution I propose for the flickering of the screen is to use ROM Toolbox to change the debug.mdcomp.maxlayer setting from 3 to 2, then reboot and change it back from 2 to 3, then reboot again. Once you cycle it, the flicker deosn't appear to return and since you're putting the hardware compositing setting back, you don't have to kill your performance to get rid of the flickering! I had success with this method but others may not. Report here to let everyone know.

I am afraid we may have to wait for an S2 official OTA to fix this. It's gotta be something that Sammy has messed with, as we are having the same issue on JB builds for the Tab 7 Plus and the Tab 7.7.
These are Exynos devices, too, so its not an Adreno220 problem from what I can tell.

Tried it and it didn't work. I'm guessing these minor bugs will be fixed in the nightlies.
yeah, I tried the build.prop settings shuffle, and it didn't work. The only thing working on mine is the Disable HW Overlay setting in dev options. Thanks for the idea, though!

Since you have it checked now try going back in and unchecking it. Do you get the smoothness back without all the flickering? I just tried it and it seems to work for now.
I found the gremlin that was causing the constant homescreen flickering for me on this nightly and on Manel's 8/27 kang.
In my case, it was a setting in Apex Launcher that had to be turned off:
Apex Settings -> Homescreen Settings -> Hide Notification Bar
So, if you're running Nova or Apex, make sure to turn off the setting that auto-hides the notification bar. Doing that and setting the maxoverlay value to "2" in the build.prop fixed me right up!

I think it does slow it down, but changing it back to 3 brings the flickering back, so that's not an option for me.
Excellent ....
Looks like it's time to play with some CM !
Thank you OP ....g
I would like to see some dock settings, especially audio through USB. Love the jellybean goodness though, running great.

Tazz, great job with this rom; love the screenies I saw of blackend gb, too. As said in the forum I tried to post this in; it's like getting an all new phone. I was stoked to see the "tv effect fade to lock screen"; and got an opportunity to show it to my wife...... just before it stopped working. LOL.
I'm not sure if this a CM issue or the Rom Tazz made...
So to reiterate my question is simple; how do I get the screen off fade back? I tried disabling/re-enabling from CM settings; still no luck... I also tried enabling/disabling animation effects; and switching back to adw launcher (from my preferred launcher pro, thinking maybe lp was preventing it somehow).
& Hope you feel better real soon!

I've seen people saying this in both ROM threads. I'm not sure what causes it but have you tried a reboot? I believe that is what brought it back for a lot of people. I haven't had mine go away to try anything to get it back.

Also check you animation settings. Fast doesn't work, have to have it set to normal.
Sent from my Ginger Tazz using XDA App
Yeah, I've re-booted several times. I'm not sure where the animation speed setting is.
Display in main menu has some/none/all setting, CM display setting has screen-on/off toggles, cm has time out settings, and I tired adjusting them, no luck. I even tried using ADW launcher, instead of launcher pro. It's not a <b>huge</b> deal. Just disappoint to see something so awesome disappear... like losing a custom boot animation, or an emulator not working right suddenly. THANKS FOR GETTING BACK TO ME THOUGH!

Its in spare parts. Also I did a fresh flash and it cameback, rebooted started returning all my settings slowly. It wasn't until I enabled auto killer. I'm going go try a fresh install and format SD card as well. This time I'm not going to touch auto memory. Its possible my exchange has something to do with it's às well.
Hi Xda forum,
I sent my Prime for repair after the hdmi port was not working. Right now, I'm am getting lags when swiping between homescreens quickly and i'm in balanced mode.The lag seem to improve when I switch to performance mode but it still exist. And also when clicking on the app drawer there is slight lag as well.
I would like to know if any of you guys are having the same issues as me ?
Please try it out for me, I really want to know if its a defective hardware problem.
Thanks
Regards,
Venz
my prime works great in balanced mode. when I'm not overclocked, I always use the 1.2Ghz balanced mode. no lag at all. everything moves fast as far as swiping thru homescreens, launching apps, loading web browser pages, scrolling thru web browser pages, etc...
try a fresh reboot to see if it clears things up. if sounds like you installed a bad app or widget or something. check the last things you downloaded. then uninstall one by one to see if it clears issue.
Ya,I've tried all types of reset.There always a very small lag when swiping across screens quickly and sometimes when clicking the app drawer.I find the prime pretty smooth hefore the repair.Confused.
Thats not normal.....i dont even see any lag when im on power save.
i run it in balanced and everything is super smooth. i have not been able to make it lag yet. only while using Wifi certain games(Glu) will lag.
other than that Nothing.
I've found the biggest thing that affects homescreen performance is the number of screens and widgets. Are your screens pretty cluttered? What launcher are you using?
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it.
I don't run Launchers or have numourous number of widgets on my homescreen.Even after a factory reset/Wipe/hard reset, I get slight lag that appears when sliding across homescreens.
I told the asus service staff about this but their reply was "It passed all the required test and there's nothing wrong with your tablet"

Do you mean you are having lag on HDMI? Because I think everyone misunderstood you here and think that you are having lag while using the touch screen. I don't have an HDMI cable to test your problem out though...
I run my tablet always on the balanced mode. I have never see any lag while swiping. In fact I am using multipic live wallpaper with random effects. Since last one week I am using Go Launcher HD Beta. Give a try with different launcher.

you shouldnt have to do that with the prime in my OP anyway. i mean if it fixes it great. but this thing should not have any lag as far touch screen flipping through home screens. i even cluttered my screens up last night after reading your post with pictures, and widgets and live wallpaper to have have as much going on as possible. and didnt see any lag on any cpu setting.
i would try and find a way of getting it replaced.
that would bug the hell out of me........
Live wallpaper? If you a live wallpaper such as the Asus Water ones it will lag a little bit especially when the animation is starting after you wake up your screen.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
i didnt use that one. just simply because i do not like it.....but i will use that one to test with when i get to the house.
and he was only talking about flipping through home screens.....not the start up lag. so thats what i was reffering too.

Thanks alot Guys! I have returned my prime back to the service center.Furthermore, I tried out a Prime display set and noticed no lags whatsoever.
The lagging bothers me so much !
Hi Forum, I just got back my prime from Asus. It got it's motherboard replaced again. But i'm still finding lags and stutters ....I don't what is the issue..seems like Asus can't figure it out too.
Do you have any suggestions on what could it be ?
Build Number : 9.4.2.15
Kernel version 2.6.39.4
AnTuTu Benchmark v2.7.1 (In performance mode) : 10610
CPU frequency : 1600 MHz
your score seems right for your device. you have something going on in the background causing lag. try this. go into settings. then developer options. then turn of window and transition animations. then force gpu rendering. that should speed you up. although that's not required as my out the box setup was lag free, that will speed device up. as far as ui n such goes. do you have any oddball Widgets on homescreens or anything? also download a free app called system panel. it will show you what apps are running. this shows alot more than Asus task manager. if you see something running that's active, and you not using it or shouldn't be running, just kill it.

Hi Demandarin, thks for the suggestion. I tried it but there isn't any improvements. I just noticed one thing, there isn't any lag when I click on the sides...the homescreen shifts smoothly but whenever I swipe it across the screen, there's a very small stutter during the transition period.

Hi Demandarin, just one question...I launched system panel lite app, settings > Dev info > Under the CPU section : Processors/Cores : 4
SYSFS CPUs Present : 4
Processor : 3 << Is it suppose to be like this ?
both powersave and balanced modes limit the framerate to 35fps, it is not totally unreasonable that some people are able to see the difference, while the vast majority do not.

I don't think its anything to be worried about. maybe just false reporting in the dev. info section.
I am naming this ROM with my wife's initials CG as a token of appreciation for her support of my work on this project.
Also credit should be given to Chaosz-X, as part of our ROM was based on his work (mainly the vendor config files).
We have moved to RC release which means it's fairly stable and with most functionality supported. But it doesn't mean it's fully working there are still some bugs and some functionality unsupported see below section to see what is not working.
Also remember that this is not a ported rom it's build from scratch with official HTC HC kernel source modified to work with JB AOKP, so it's very stable but the progress is slower since the degree of difficulty is higher. So be patient.

That's because it's build from aokp tree directly, if you have use cm9 or aokp or any other aosp flavor rom, this is how small it usually is. But it doesn't have gapps. so you need to download those separately.
Well, installed, but it doesn't seem to be booting. It just stays at the initial HTC screen. I'll leave it be for a few more minutes, but if it doesn't work, I'll upgrade to Honeycomb and then try flashing it again.

Makes sense. The files for my phone that are built from AOSP are always smaller than the original ROMs, too.

Flashing right now
Edit: Ok so from the few minutes i been playing with this the only bugs i notice are:
Red perimeter around the screen if i remember that has to do with the drivers
A occasional lag with the keyboard
the nav bars look too small but once i went into rom control and changed the nav bar width back to default they looked better
Whenever I long press anything on Trebuchet or Nova the screen rotates and then rotates back real quick not allowing me to move the item or anything
I downloaded and it installed on top of Honeycomb without a problem. This looks very promising!
yncconsulting, are you interested in feedback and bug reports at this time, and is this thread the right place for it?

I saw at first the same issues with the red perimeter and not being able to drag an app to the desktop, but this has fixed itself after installing an app from the Play Store.
EDIT: oops, now the rotate-when-drag-to-desktop effect has reappeared
Thanks for the ROM its working great the only issues I have run into is with the homescreen transitions little laggy. A few forced closes when I use the ROM settings and tried to change the theme. Any chance of getting a Sense 4 integration in the future? Or any Sense for that matter I know that this is huge having a working ICS but I really like having a Sense in there too. Again great job guys.

Wow, sounds great.
I know over on the E4GT you have to be VERY careful about how to flash an AOKP ICS build, what recovery to use, what kernel to use - lest you brick your rig.
Any special precautions here?
** Thanks so much for this! Should I assume that the pen will work everywhere with this rom as it does in HC?

Okay, on this ROM now.
I've seen a couple of the bugs that the others have seen, but no big deal for me. For the rotating thing, a reboot put it back to normal for me.
The biggest thing I've noticed that actually does matter to me (other than the rotating thing above) is that scrolling can be wonky at times. If I flick too fast, it won't scroll very much, or it will just bounce a little bit where it is. I sometimes have to follow through with the motion all the way for it to smoothly scroll, in any direction. If you need a video of that, just let me know.
You're off to a better than excellent start. Of course there's bugs that need to be worked out, but you've gotten further than anybody else has, so kudos!
Not that we don't want to but this is source from aokp which means its pure google android without any HTC add on.

I'm first long pressing an app icon on the desktop, the screen rotates twice while I keep the finger down.
I then enter the apps menu and try to long press a widget, then swipe over to the apps section and long press an app, both with the same effect.

Notifications got changed, you can now do a gesture to show more info (more emails etc) - search on youtube.
Blocking mode added, new homescreen modes (easy mode for noobs)
Projectbutter forces the system to run at 60FPS everywhere, removing/reducing lag.
Google Now, better than S-Voice AND SIRI (check youtube).
More free RAM (check Task Manager)
I just installed JB with CM10 and besides some aesthetic modifications, specially in the notifications bar, nothing changed from CM9 with ICS. I guess with Stock ROMs it must be pretty much the same. And CM10 was a bit laggy sometimes so, seen the lack of differences, I went back to ICS:
All the hype on XDA has been from overexcited noobs .
JB is an incremental update nothing more .

JB is more than an incremental update, check the Google IO 2012 video on youtube for complete changes.
CM10 is laggy because of missing HWCOMPOSER sources from samsung, that means project butter and GPU acceleration don't work on CM10 and ROMs not based on samsung builds.
Thanks for the replies .... I'll go check out youtube .

In the s3 notifications have no JB gestures. Project butter is only partly here, not as good as on the nexus. Google now is here, but seems to drain a lot of battery. Other features that are supposed to be in JB: Android beam doesn't work with gallery (which is probably where you want to use it) the gallery is the same as ics and has none of the new gestures, it isn't connected with camera like on true JB. The For now only nexus users know what real jellybean is! I miss my nexus... Touchwiz is quite different from vanilla android and not in any useful or particularly better way!

The only gesture I can see is swipe for dismissal, but I can't resize messages or screenshots like it's supposed to do.

... You're doing it wrong...
Press the screen with two fingers, slide down. Magic.

You're right, I forgot about the 2 finger part! Well, at least we got that, another thing that's missing that I didn't mention is the throw to delete gesture on the homescreen, but a third party launcher can easilly fix that.

so when i am on aokp or cm10, and i tick the "force GPU" setting, are you saying it doesn't work?
i'm on psycho aokp now and it's damn smooth to me, virtually no lags, unlike the prev aokp roms i've tried..
Hey. It seems like the "new" 4.0.4 (4.1.B.1.13) is available through Vodafone. I've just updated my phone and here are my thoughts.
1. The notification led problem hasn't been fixed.
2. There's no new kernel.
3. It's a bit smoother than .587. (Actually it's not. Just placebo.)
4. The touchpad responds better. (Placebo)
5. The dialer is much faster.
EDIT:
6. I'm disappointed in Sony. I've waited so long for this update and it's a pile of t****, slow and buggy. If you're still on GB, stick with it, don't "update"!
EDIT:
7. Sony, are you playing us? Video recording still laggy, audio output is still mono.
EDIT: According to CTCaer the only real change is related to WiFi libraries. There's also a new baseband which might also solve some signal issues. That's all folks! Don't expect better overall performance.
Download: http://d-h.st/WcP
Note. Vodafone branded. Contains carrier bloatware.
Some screens and Benchmarks.
still same pathetic mixed ui
What other changes? more screenshots please)) there is a problem with the network mode?
i'm still curious about what did they update actually. kernel is still the same exact kernel as .587, bit by bit.
if notification led and buggy video record with stabilizer on haven't been fixed, what is the change then?
btw i can see the baseband is .85 now.

No other visual changes ---> therefore no need for more screenshots.

seriously? then what's the change? why this firmware?
Total waste of time. Going back to my sweet ginger because this update is a total fail. Also, this is totally my last Sony phone.
Whether switching of a mode of a network (2G/3G) after reboot is corrected?

Did they fix network mode resetting?
Did they changed, added, removed any widgets?
Is there still double "Fun & Downloads" widget?
Does "media shortcuts" widget still takes 4x2 grid instead 4x1 which is proper?
Is WiFi coverage still as weak as before?
Is app drawer still laggy as before?
Is overall experience still cluttered and choppy as before?
Is gaming still "mission impossible" as before?
I guess it will take some time to answer all this, but we're not rushing anywhere. Take your time.
this is like they mock us -.-
they releasing new firmware with no noticable changes

5,6,7) It's still full of lag. Homescreen switching is slow and choppy, the app drawer is the same. Video recording laggy and mono sounded. Gaming is laggy, for example, Temple Run lags, same as on .587
As for the rest, I can't tell for sure. Once I saw how bad it runs, I switched back to GB.
What's the change except numbers then?
thank god this is xda, custom rom and kernel beat the hell out of oem stock rom.
but at least they tried.
well try again next time, sony. try harder
sony just change number >>>
Why they release new firmware when there is no change?

Oh yes. There are some changes. Updated system apps like: Gmail, Maps, Play Store. And that's pretty much it.

I was sarcastic. They might have made changes, but who knows? There's no noticeable change! It still has the major problems .587 had.

Like I said before on several occations, Gingerbread is light year ahead of this half-finished ICS wannabe.
In everything - period.
Beside fanciness and somewhat wider choice of apps, which will appeal to "up to date" type of users.
But everything (important) else is on side of GB really. Usability, performance, rock solidness, stability, gaming, etc etc...
As for me, I'm sick of waiting for something to happen, and then being slapped in face harder than before, over and over again.
I was using (torturing myself) ICS in last few weeks just for trying to make myself to like it, and hoping that new update will make it usable finally, but now...
I'm going back to GB for good, at least with this phone. This ICS experience made me appreciate GB even more than before. So, dear fast and usable GB, here I come. I'm sorry I ever left you.
