MIUI is based off CM yet It runs smoother. With MIUI there is no need for project butter. I understand that MIUI took CMs hard work and made it closed source, and this makes me want to support CM. But I've always noticed MIUI runs way nicer. Everything works faster too. I spent today comparing MIUI to CM9 and it everything works far better, like downloading from market is faster, getting location for BeWeather and stuff like that.
Live wallpapers are smoother too. There's slight lag and stalls on CM which I just don't see on MIUI.
I just want someone to explain to me why this is, if they can. Is it the way MIUI is built? Is it faster because it has no app draw?
and I think CM9 has a problem with autobrightness whereas MIUI controls brightness very well
First of all MIUI is no more based on CM source. Now they use stock roms

Good morning.
Ive been using my i9300 for about two months now. Im a former iPhone 4 user. I have noticed that the i9300 despite the fact that it has quad-core and 1GB RAM, is not at all smooth :/ I always get lag in the Homescreen and in the settings etc etc. I've tried like 20 ROMS or so :/ am i doing something wrong here? E.g. scrolling between homepages can get laggy! That wasnt supposed to happen right?\
Im currently at MIUI 2.9.14 ROM. Maybe im doing something wrong when i flash a new ROM?
What are the steps?
I delete the whole internalSD, i perform a data/factory reset via CWM, i delete cache and Dalvik Cache. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

The rom you are on has problem of memory leak.
Just use a samsung-based rom. Your trouble will be fixed.

Yeah try that combo. Wanam or Omega Jelly Bean XXDLI8 leaks are very smooth.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
there are plenty of custom roms out there,
most of the JB leaks are much smoother than the ICS roms i have been using.( i am sure there are ICs roms that are smooth as well , just that i have not tested before. )
currently on Omega v23 and happy with it, no lags. you may just have to spend some time experimenting which one is to your preference.
Sir, I suggest you try out Omega ROM (ICS or JB) doesn't really matter, cause Omega is really really stable. I'm not prompting whatsoever because I'm on MIUI 2.9.14 too with hardcore speed mod kernel and it is perfectly great.
One advice, try not flashing so many ROMs at one go because it might cause system error such as connectivity to wifi or packet data. Stick to one you really like.
Edit: Do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware on PC Odin and root again to remove any bad 'history' and the lag too.
Hope I did manage to help!
Great day

If you want a rapid ICS rom then use Foxhound 1.4.3, it is quite simply the best ICS rom there is, and believe me i've tried them all.
Couple it with Galaxsih kernel @normal and apex launcher not much comes close to it.
As for Jelly bean, take your pick but just know that there are no final builds as of yet and all of them are leaks, meaning that kernel support is limited.
Thanks everyone ive never flashed back to stock before i used custom rom and i think that May be it like one of you suggested. About that miui rom and hardcore speed mod. It works on any MIUI rom or only on specific ones? If it does work on every miui where can i find it? I really like miui

You are welcome mate hmm what do you mean?? I'm using hardcore speed mod on my MIUI rom and I don't experience any lag (Provided you use apex launcher PRO too) I even have great battery life (8 hrs of hardcore using; with wifi or packet data On). You can definitely flash speedmod on your MIUI 2.9.14 and you will know what I mean.
Omega ICS on the other hand, is really stable and having that 'stock-ish' feel. But on MIUI, you know we rule the game.
Edit: If you wanna try out Omega, do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware (It will unroot device) then root again then try out Omega. It is really your decision.
But again, you know who rule the game with MIUI. Haha.
Great day ahead.

i am also experiencing lag on my s3 i'm on wanamlite 3.3
To get rid of the memory leak, go to ES Explorer, give it root and write permissions (in its options), then go to system/bin/ and delete kiesexe. You won't be able to use Kies anymore, but it'll kill the leak because it's caused by that process.
you should use the stock TW without scrolling wallpaper mod =p
I just prefer you to flash DLI18 stock JB from sammobile, wipe everything before flash, and I would prefer you to change animation scale and duration scale from 1 to 0.5,

Just a suggestion.... If you really like MIUI, but want a smoother and more stable ROM, why don't you flash the latest CM10 build, and then install MiHome Launcher? MiHome Launcher is the default launcher used in MIUI and it comes with an optional MIUI lockscreen as well. Once both are installed, it's virtually indistinguishable from a full MIUI ROM. Plus, it'll have the speed and smoothness of Jelly Bean with the stability of CyanogenMod (or as stable as a pre-release build can be).
Anyway, it was just a thought. Good luck to ya'!

But i find it really annoying that HTC ONE X users have smoother ROMS than me Their stock is smoother than any Custom Rom ive used.. wtf exynos? Im really thinkin of selling my phone!
Hi XDA community !
I got finally my S3 and i'm so happy with it
Just a question, i've installed CM10.1 and made some tests (game like Rayman, whatsapp, antutu,...).
Menus are more flowing but in the apps, phone run slower.
When i put the stock rom, it's the opposite.
What do you think about that ?
If I'm not mistaken, CM10.1 is based on Android 4.2, which is a bit buggy from what I've experienced with my N7.
Maybe use a themed TouchWiz based ROM, get the best of both worlds.

Hey all,
I've done many a fresh installs for various aosp ROMs and soon enough 2 issues always bug me. 1 being the camera crashes and the only temporary fix is to reboot (wiping dalvik and cache doesn't make a difference) then it'll eventually crash again. 2 is MMS on aosp has never worked
I'm currently using cyanogenmod 12.1s with stock kernel.
I've been inactive on XDA for many months because I just pushed aside those issues and could be bothered clean flashing a new ROM. If you guys could give me any tips it'll be much appreciated.
I know each ROM is different for everyone so no need to tell me all that.
Tl;dr: aosp ROMs always crash my camera and MMS never works

It's simple, install a Sammy rom, like neat or archi 4.3 and use Nova instead of TouchWiz, it's a big difference, plus that you'll have great camera software and working mms. I love aosp, but the camera keeps me from installing one...it will never be stable on our devices, because there is not a official mentainer of CM...sad

you definitely give 4.3 and last nova a try,I use QS JB along with nova,freezed touchwiz and samsung keyboard and deleted a lot of Sammy stuff and now my phone works like a charm.The ram usage is way better than with all touchwiz things,sometimes I get even 500 mb free ram.I also use Fast reboot and Greenify,if you choose nova,give a try to Glim Lite theme package,it is awsome
What would you guys recommend for most stable and battery life? I'm currently on PureNexus with franco kernel, seems to be very stable for the past few months. Not sure if there are better options for both battery/stability, any recommendations?
A bonus would be if it works with the HDR apk here: Google Camera HDR, currently with above rom and kernel it can't run and keeps crashing.
Thanks!

I don't think it's an issue with radon, but my phone doesn't seem to work well with it. I can't remember the exact issue I had but something along the lines of phone crashing. Somehow no other users had the same issue so I just stuck to another kernel. I could give it a try again though.
Thanks for the recommendation!

Use franco or nexus experience stock kernel. The stock kernel works well too. But the ROM is fantastic.

I suggest u to use cosmic os..there r not many users..but it one of the smoothest n stable ROM I have ever seen...camera quality is quite comparable to miui...this ROM has zero ui glitches.. If u want customisation then there r bunch of customisation which r useful unlike creepy unwanted features found on other ROM(RR ROM)..its based on caf..so the battery life is excellent... Its has color engine feature of aospa ROM..plzz do try this ROM...its excellent...u ll b shocked by the performance
Cosmic os
