Going by what you say, the liquid and SlimBean roms that don't have that line in their build prop, the navigation bar won't work, yet they do.

No I was saying the nav bar takes away the flicker that appears when the maxlayer is set to 3 because the Nav bar adds the 3rd layer

The problem I'm having with what you say, I never had the flicker to begin with, so it's different for everyone and I don't care if someone says it effects performance deleting the line. The rom is fast enough for me. It's a personal choice and most people just want something that works and don't care about the technical mumbo jumbo. On my phone, every thing works.

I hear ya. I tried the slim rom that a lot of people like and to me its nothing nice. And the holo launcher has nothing on the trebuchet. I don't care about all the tweaks so that's how I'm weird lol. But if you touched my note right now on liquid now that I got the nav bar on 9/17 update you'd see exactly what I mean by smoooooth lol. Mine now functions like I know everyone wants theirs to but are just going along saying wow this is smooth but i know its not what they are expecting from a JB rom! I've tried all the roms and liquid is the smoothest right now the way I have it set. No lags, flickers, stutters, mutters, flutters, just butters lol. Man I wish you could really try my phone then run another rom then you'd know!

I know what you mean. What's funny is, pick up a nexus with stock JB on it, and I have, every rom available here blows it out of the water as far as smoothness and all around performance. So you can't say "true jb" because stock jb can't hold a candle to what we have. I blew a district manager for at&t away when he played with liquid on my phone and I think slim is even smother

Yep, I'm experiencing overall system lag and frequent app closings.
I installed ICS as well as the paid version of Nova Launcher. I love it so far, but have not re-installed any of my apps yet. Super smooth for me, no complaints whatsoever. Though the premium suite is not yet included, I'm glad to see all of the SPen functionality from the GB version is still there.

No complaints so far...everything running smoothly.
I'm going back and forth between these two as there are things I like about both.
One thing I have read is that ICS is more ram intensive, and thus certain apps might run a bit faster under Gingerbread.
Performance is the main thing I care about so I'd like to know if this is true and I would like to know your general opinions on ICS compared to Gingerbread
as well ....
Thoughts?

Man ... things are really touchy around here. Maybe I just have brain damage (quite possible) but I don't remember having to walk on eggshells quite so much back in the Tmobile Galaxy S XDA forum ...
Okay I changed it to "compared to" instead of "vs" in the body of my post ... is that less "inflammatory?"
Why would people get upset about picking one OS over the other? It's not like you designed the damn things. What's wrong with asking which one you think is faster for memory intensive apps? I'm not trolling. I just don't get it.

Thanks for weighing in, chibixzero!
I agree completely that ics in general looks much better than gb. I like the feel of it better too, for lack of a better word. But since I use Launcher Pro it doesn't make that much difference what the UI looks like for me. I have noticed that some games are sluggish with ics or do not run at all, but that could be more of an issue on the game developers end, I guess ... Do you have any issues connecting your phone to a computer with ics? The process seems much more cumbersome than with gb--with gb I just plug in a USB cable and tap mass storage and that is it.
Went to stock gingerbread from jb. Gingerbread is very smooth. Only thing i miss from ics/ jb is task manager and full screen browser (stock browser)
This thread is pointless, no offense meant, because of the following:

Only thing I've suffered from is a bit of mem leak... a reboot a day solves that, sometimes two. This guy is being killed by mem leak. Why is it different? Each phone is different just like each grape on a vine is different.
Different views, different experience, same phone, same ROM.
The same things can be said for ICS vs GB. Different issues, different opinions, same phone, same ROM. Let's not forget that I may FULL wipe and run the kernel cleaning script before each flash and someone else may just wipe cache and dalvik. That right there is enough for one of us to have a problem the other doesn't. Let's not forget about the different tweaks you can do which add even MORE variables to why one ROM or kernel may run better for you than me... even on the same settings.

GB. I believe it offers the best experience for our device. I've been on ICS for a while and the only thing holding me is the beautiful UI changes in AOSP. So far, it's been enough to keep me put. I doubt most people care about it that much though.

Then forget about both ICS and JB and go with GB. Any variant will do.
ICS/JB ROMs are just too unfinished yet to be a reliable daily driver, IMO. People are woking hard on them though, so there is no doubt they will one day become as reliable as good old GB.
Agreed.

This is a very accurate summary of where we stand. I'm still running Nottachtrix 1.3.1 even though Nottach left the Atrix over a month ago, just because everything works on it. Bluetooth, wifi, HWA, Ubuntop, all cameras, and even a decent selection of themes for both android and linux.
But with the new leak libs, there is sure to be a fantastic CM9/10 ROM that takes advantage of them. We just have to be patient.
Hi
If you're not using thoroughly your phone, the CM10 form Epinter is now reliable enough for a daily use.
I was using CM7 since months, and after trying CM10 last week, i'm still using it and have found no real limitations for a basic usage.
I'd recommend you to keep a GB based rom if you want to have the most reliable system and if video recording is a primary need for you.
Just my $.02: I don't even use the "latest" GB 2.3.7 ROM: I've returned to Neutrino 2.6 EE (the latest is 2.91 at this writing). CM 7.2 RC1 was the most stable + efficient ROM from the CM gurus for my Atrix. I charge my phone once every two or three days too.
Think about driving a car that everyone laughs at that's never needing to go to the shop. Gits ya there, gits ya back, reliably and without anyone really paying attention to it, and it just goes and goes and holds its own against everyone else. Newest doesn't always mean best; trustworthiness does.
Epinter's CM10 worked OK for me despite the few well known bugs.
You might give the brand new AtrICS ROM a shot. It's hard to believe that it could already be as stable as it claims to be, but with working hardware acceleration, it should have some bugs fixed as compared to CM10.

epinter JB rom

I switched from epinter's CM10 to AtrICS today and found it to be a fairly usable. You trade some features for others.
I prefer the interface of CM10 to AtrICS, but AtrICS feels really snappy thanks to the HWA. I'll probably get used to ICS after a while. The Camera works well, but, like others I noticed that after switching from the back camera to the front, there was some corruption on the right side of the screen. Going into Camera Settings and unchecking then rechecking the Widescreen box fixes this. There are problems with the unlock screen of AtrICS; it can be slow to appear when you press the power button and I have seen the screen turn on for a split second before turning right back off. If you let the phone go into a deep sleep, you may see a black screen for a minute, in my case the unlock screen did eventually appear. I've had one reboot right after closing a bunch of apps running in the background then trying to open a browser.
WiFi works great with AtrICS and mobile data feels faster than I remember.
My mobile gone hot after a few minute use AtrICS, and experienced network lost. The phone also hot with epinter 's version.
Restored TopSmart1.3. GB has the stablity I trust.

Does your camcorder autofocus very often (around 1-5 seconds)? Mine does with Somebody's CM10, I'm just wondering if it just me.
Whats the best CM10 JB ROM for the Rezound that is stable, fast and smooth and has very good batter life? Also, what would be a good Kernel to go with that ROM? Right now I'm on a CM9 ROM
Sent from my Rezound using xda app-developers app
They're all roughly equal in most areas. The instability with AOKP is gone in JB, so it's more about what you want out of the ROM. PAC has the most options, vanilla CM10 has the least (though still more than CM9), and AOKP is in the middle. Neo also has his customized versions of CM9 and AOKP if you like his stuff.
Stability wise, JB is overall a tick behind ICS AOSP, but not much (not enough to worry about in my book). I recommend pmem over ION if you are faced with the choice, and if you want to get the smoothest performance, check out one of the custom kernels (I hear Ermahgerd is good ).
I can vouch for Neo's AOSP jb Rom as far as speed and smoothness. Very few bugs at least for me (never use bluetooth) and I personally like snuzzos funky kernel (haven't tried the newer kernels like ermergerd or the oc kernel I have seen in the development section) but I don't think you can go wrong with any of the jb builds out there now because even a completely clean cm10 build without Linaro is pretty quick and definitely a very usable dd.

There's no noise cancelling in our AOSP device code, so what come in the mic goes out of the earpiece. I don't hear it as a echo though. Someone had to point it out to me for me to even notice it, because to me, it sounds just like an old analog landline.

Also the signal issue you are talking about is an issue with all AOSP ROMs. Enable airplane mode, wait a few seconds, and disable airplane mode and then your service should come back.
So been thinking about trying a custom rom but not really sure since there isn't much to pick from so I'm looking to see what everyone else is doing and how they like what they are getting from there current setup?
I would just give it a week or so and I'm sure some more stable releases will come out

shockingly I'm using TouchWiz. My only complaints with it are the inability to flick away desktop icons, no play store in the top right corner, and the folders are annoying. Why not just leave the stock folder function?
I use Apex Launcher overtop of TW which gives me the customization i want but still maintains all the Samsung functionality that is really pretty cool. After coming from AOSP Roms on my Gnex, its kind of a nice change of pace.
I rooted and removed some bloatware and verizon stuff I knew I didn't need.
Installed novalauncher and called it a day. I plan to stay with the stock kernel. I might be a little jaded coming from having to reformat my last few phones every few months once I started flashing roms.
I am completely stock, no root yet. Just testing her out to see if I am going to keep it first. Battery life and signal issues plagued my last two phones, so those are what I'm testing. So far so good.
Can someone explain what TouchWiz is? I don't see it anywhere on my S4. I'm coming from a Thunderbolt.

I'm stock rooted running Nova Launcher. I froze most all the bloat I don't use and I'm loving this phone! Battery life is great and I have zero lag (especially since I came from a Moto Bionic.)
Im stock rooted running Nova launcher as well. Removed all the bloatware and have zero lag. This phone is amazing. What a difference coming from Gnex. I use svoice alot and it actually works well for what I use it for.
I'm running the aokp build. Does have a couple of issues, but I'm an aosp guy

Running Nova Prime, Xposed v5?, Another custom framework mod to give me an Android guy in my drop down Window, Stock Rom frozen bloat, 64gig fat32 Sammy SD card w/folder mount, fauxU modded kernel, TWRP, No WIFI notification and no GPS icon mods...
I am getting itchy flash fingers though... Im reading we can use other carrier ROMs as long as we loki it.... May try that or....
CleamROM dev just got his VZW S4 today, and his ROMs are the best of the best, so I may just wait for his. ...
Currently hunting for a keyboard that can be themed, and a way to theme the rest of the Window box colors in settings/messages/reboot etc..,

Rooted but still on stock ROM, using GoLauncher on top of TouchWiz, Swiftkey dark theme keyboard, haven't removed/frozen bloat yet (but will soon, just rooted yesterday). I'll be eventually loading a custom ROM but waiting out the alpha/beta builds.
Really enjoying the two finger swiping/gestures, though i don't use them much. Comes in handy on the notification bar for quick toggles, and Toucher is a pretty cool app especially when themed properly.
Not a fan of all the notification clutter, but thats just my OCD kicking in.
SmartStay/SmartScroll stopped working after day one, not sure why, but seems kind of a hokey feature anyway...
I agree, the tweaked folders are annoying, enjoyed my previous ICS folders using DeckReloaded on my EVO.
By and far my favorite phone that I have owned.

So I tried it. It booted into the OS just fine, but the phone process was force closing so bad I couldn't get though the setup. I would type a character then it would freeze. Just lost patience, lol. I had backed up my APN but could not get through the setup to restore it.
But what this tells us is that porting ROMs will potentially be pretty easy.
