[Nexus S General] 063_XOBX:
Two words. Project Butter.
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
ICS was very smooth for me this is as smooth and just so much faster @ stock speed compared to 1.3ghz I ran on ICS.

Can't wait to see how fast things are with customs OC kernels

Launcher still blows homescreen transition not smooth at all just snappier

App drawer smooth though
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
The first thing I changed was the I/O scheduler. Deadline or noop ftw for ondemand.
[Nexus S General] alien_x:
I dont know why the hell mine keeps crashing :(
[Nexus S General] uzzo85:
I am impressed of the Gallery scrolling! The picture scroll is finally fast without lags! In more off 20 rom tested the Gallery was always bad!!!
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Have you guys noticed that oftentimes when you press the power button to wake the phone, the homescreen shows up for a split sec before the lockscreen? :P
[Nexus S General] italia0101:
Project butter is smooth for me ... can definatly see the higher frame rate.

But I really love Google now , already used it twice without setting anything , told me I needed to leave by 3:15 to get to my dark knight showing

And also gave me local bus times while I was waiting at a bus stop
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
If I'm not mistaken, my G2 does the same thing if its a quick off and on action. The phone hasn't gone into a deep sleep just yet or something of the like. About Google Now. Its awesome and what the above poster said is pretty sweet. I personally like the new notification drawer look.
[Nexus S General] g1user101:
If knly Google now talked to you like siri
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Is there any way to make Google Now use metric units in queries while still keeping US english as default language? For ex. I want to get height, distance etc results in meters, kilometers etc.. Why isn't everybody using the metric system!? Why?! :P :D
[Nexus S General] powerarmour:
I've now found that when viewing and zooming in on a detailed picture in the gallery, it no longer as any issues with any compression artifacts, it's spot on now :good:

Also, the recent apps list pops up much quicker too.
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Hell yeah!
[Nexus S General] rasengan82:
What's the default governor?
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Ondemand, as always.
[Nexus S General] rasengan82:
Not interactive? Wow
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
I've never had good luck with interactive on this phone, except for Bugless Beast Gingerbread. Ondemand is a good balance for performance and battery. You can see how the cpu works now from some apps like ROM Toolbox. Much more aggressive, but battery is the same for me, which is good.
[Nexus S General] MercilessLTD:
Personally I like the new UI look in addition to the other goodies, i.e. Project Butter, Google Now, etc.
[Nexus S General] deani77:
Media server the highest user of my battery...
[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
INDEED! :D
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
You're listening to music, its to be expected.
[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
There is no more screen tearing in the UI nor in any apps, it really is running at a fixed framerate. :good:

Menus open up MUCH quicker and due to vsync it all feels snappier. The camera and gallery integration is amazing. :D

The multi-tasking list is also much smoother, google now is amazing.

I am not convinced by the new keyboard yet and the stock launcher home screen navigation still sucks so I had to use APEX which unfortunately doesnt yet look the same as stock jelly bean.
[Nexus S General] Rene_Lui:
Camera!
[Nexus S General] g1user101:
The menu when you press and hold android version 4.1.1 and hold the red jelly bean :D
[Nexus S General] MRsf27:
i actually kinda miss the flying ice cream sandwiches.. only thing that would be cool is if you could pop them into oblivion lol
[Nexus S General] rob.in.az:
Actually, I'm glad it doesn't.
[Nexus S General] thedynamix:
Worst thing about it... The search button brings up crappy google now. While it may better than siri,its still a gimmick imo.

Bring back the dedicated search button!
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Yeah I'd also like to have normal in app search and set Google now to long press..
[Nexus S General] dEris:
I'm loving the speed of the task switcher! Comes up way faster now!
[Nexus S General] xMiklo:
It's slow and laggy for me. :(
[Nexus S General] alien_x:
Do a factory reset... Mine was slow n laggy but after factory reset its all good.
[Nexus S General] Tom_cat:
Camera so quick, are you kidding?

Just in case you haven't noticed yet, it has ~1 second lag between the time when you press the shutter and the time photo is actually taken. :(
[Nexus S General] HAKA:
I don't know why but the OTA was very laggy, there was almost 1 sec lag between 'pulling down' status bar and when it is 'actually pulled'.

But after trying AdamG's AOSP...well...I am in love with JB! :D
[Nexus S General] Logomotph:
Mine was laggy after OTA, but after 1-2 reboots, everything works great (except for news n weather which keeps getting a network error; worked for a while but now it fails). All in all, a nice update. Hope to see a matr1x kernel soon :)
[Nexus S General] Nexus311:
I noticed in the Camera we don't have the "swipe up to delete" feature.
[Nexus S General] HAKA:
I have it, are you in filmstrip mode?
[Nexus S General] KevinouILG:
The best improvement in Jelly Bean for Nexus S is the general fluidity of the system. I see some transition I never seen before on the Nexus S (for example, in the task switcher, when the square comes to foreground... it's really good to see that on Android and with an (almost) old device (in comparison, the Galaxy S won't have the JB improvements...)
[Nexus S General] mykeyin:
though i can't use GoogleNow(it don't support Chinese), i think it's the best part of JB.
[Nexus S General] stremax:
I'm really impressed about overall smoothness, considering this are first release, running doublex, so I'm expecting very good things, specially with next slimjb... and I really love the jellybag.... top funny swipe away those candy!
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Noticed if you long press a notification in the notification drawer, it takes you to app info, which is cool, at least to me.
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
That happens because it focuses first, it's not a lag. When the picture is taken and you swipe left you can view your photos and then swipe right to go back to camera. All this happens fairly quickly.
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
That "What's that song" widget is pretty cool. I know Shazam has the same thing but never bothered to even try it. Sucks I can't use this while driving. lol.Okay. Time to leave the house and actually use this new OS upgrade.
[Nexus S General] seriosbrad:
Oh my god this is driving me insane. Especially when I'm in the Play Store looking for an app and I hit the search button 3-4 times in a row because it's a habit, and every time, it brings up Google Now. Hopefully there's a mod to revert this.
[Nexus S General] pandaman21:
Definitely for sure it is project butter. Its the smoothest yet. In future android updates imagine how fast and smooth those will be.
[Nexus S General] Felsenmann:
Project Butter

It is way smoother den ICS :)
[Nexus S General] Athhar:
New improvments in jellibean

New improvments in jellibean can be found at official android website.

see this link.

http://www.android.com/whatsnew/

press thanks if this helps.......
[Nexus S General] tyronlive:
Great update google!

Loving the update also. Everything on my phone just feels faster. But have anyone tried to activate voice search in google now by saying "google" or "hey google"?

I can't seem to find the option to turn hotword detection one. Maybe its a galaxy nexus thing.
[Nexus S General] keftess:
Obviously

project butter is a must have these days
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
*It really is annoying when people do this.

Seeing the route this thread has taken, maybe a more appropriate title would be sth like "Discussing Jelly bean - The good, the bad, the droidy :silly: " since we're also talking about probs (and it's logical imho)
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Noticed this in the stock browser today. The menu that pops up when you press the edge of the screen(found in the Labs section), now has a few extras. Say you press the tabs button. Once you press and hold, it brings up another set of options, like new tab, new incognito, close current tab. If you hold the browser icon, it brings up search and the share tabs.
[Nexus S General] alien_x:
I can't find "What's that song" widget in my widget list :(
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Root and use Rom toolbox or titanium to unfreeze it. Or even better, use Soundhound..
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
The widget is called Sound Search, so it would be located towards the end of the list in widgets.
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
No it's not available for everybody. In my case it was "frozen" and didn't show up. In any case it's pretty useless given the existence of Soundhound - Sound search is just a widget while Soundhound as an app saves your recording for later look up and keeps your history.
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Ah. Okay. Forget some of the Google services aren't even available for people outside the states. Good to know about Soundhound. I've heard of it, but 99% of the music I listen to is via pandora/tunein so the tracks are already listed for me to snap screenshots of and youtube search for later.
[Nexus S General] nolook:
loving the update it seems a bit faster than ICS...google now is actually really usefull too

one thing i dont like too much is on the lockscreen (slide) there is that big explosion animation (or sparkle)...is it possible to turn this off?
[Nexus S General] ejatds:
BEST improvements in my personal order/preference:

1. Camera to Gallery 'sliding'. MUCH easier to delete a photo quickly after taking one, and also viewing a taken photo!

2. Overall smoothness, especially noticable when launching the Phone dialer. No more stuttering between swiping through dialer/call log/contacts, and seems to launch at least a little quicker.

3. Notifications. Looks a lot nicer, and love the ability to interact with them right from the notification menu! (such as dsimissing an alarm)

4. Lockscreen. Love the new slide to unlock animation!

5. Google Now/Search. Pretty cool! Idk how often I'd use the voice search feature, but I like the fact that it remembers/reminds me about certain things I search about which actually makes it useful, unlike Siri or S-Voice which really doesn't have any use other then as a toy.
[Nexus S General] JavaJunkay:
WTF do you mean by faster shutter speed than GS3? No, my sister has it, NS is nowhere near it, not even on front facing camera.

Is there a way to make Google now voice female, like in this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDsOtdRtG0Q

Mine is male, and this one is cooler IMO

I love the camera app, and quick swipe to gallery option, and pinch out and delete! But I'd still love the 3D gallery from Gingerbread.
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Mine actually stopped working after a bit(even before I flashed a ROM). I've posted this in a few threads but nobody has responded. I don't know if I changed a setting or what, but my friend on a stock build had his do the same thing.
[Nexus S General] Xuzuno:
Try changing your system language to English (United States) :)
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Yeah. Mine is female, too. I actually just used this. I opened up search, said "Google", voice search opened up and asked for today's date just to see if it worked. Well, it did. I laughed.
[Nexus S General] l2hbs:
Anyone agrees that JB uses less memory and has a smoother task switch?

or just a illusion? :eek:
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Mine uses about the same. The transitions have also been changed and are much more fluid. I never liked using them, but I'm having fun enjoying the eye candy for now
[Nexus S General] lombak2006:
Yes there is:

Turn On Google Now and on the weather card there is 3dots for settings on the upper right corner.

Go into settings and change.

:)
[Nexus S General] maxx1601:
Camera takes pictures just way too quick

and google now is awesome

better than siri imo
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
liking the camera/gallery

swipe left on first pic in camera gallery brings you to camera app.

after taking pic can swipe to right to go directly to last pic within the gallery

pinch inside gallery folders will show pics differently and swipe up or down to delete pic and also has an option to undo in case you delete wrong pic
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
Yeah. Finding out about a lot of stuff just toying with the os. I don't know what happened this morning, but my Gmail sent me a notification even though I didn't have auto sync on. Perhaps a reminder for emails I never marked as read from earlier?
[Nexus S General] kwabby:
I like JB alot, google polished up ICS
[Nexus S General] dimeim:
Actually that only changes Celsius/Farenheit. I can't make it give me answers in meters etc :P
[Nexus S General] MichelN:
Tested it for you and have no issues with it. I didn't clear any cache or data after updating from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1
[Nexus S General] vetvito:
I hated any animations on Android, but now they're pretty slick.
[Nexus S General] kwabby:
I like Google now, but can you customised the cards?
[Nexus S General] penguin00xx:
Google Now and the new status bar

[Nexus S General] jedijos:
Has anyone tried a game with JB? I' ve tried Modern Combat 3 and Dead Trigger and the experience has been terrible, game freezes, touchscreen unresponsive, and after exiting the game, general system distability. This never happened with ICS....
[Nexus S General] jayjay3333:
For me I find it very smooth and responsive. I did completely wipe (including SD) and loaded stock and get OTA then rerooted. This may be why I have no issues. I found the 1st day sluggish but to be expected I think when running a new ROM. Now my phone has "worn it in" and it is smooth. The OS is well though out, but think a lot of stock has gone into Google Now and they want that to work. It seems to be an important step for Google and somehow I think this connects to Google Glasses.

Overall I think battery is about the same. This is the longest I've run stock since ICS 1st dropped and it is nice...Although it is time to flash ~eye twitch~ :silly:

[General Topics] richie390:
So I'm coming from the T-Mobile G2x and wondering what good phone I should get? Something fast, has ROMS, etc. Do you know of a phone getting released for T-Mobile? Should I wait till a new phones gets released? Let me know I can be patient. :good::D
[General Topics] nanosp:
From what I've seen only the One S and SGSII are worth it atm.. T-Mobile usually releases a lot of new handsets during Q3
[General Topics] richie390:
I wish good phones like the Attrix HD or the Razor Maxx from Motorola was on T-Mobile because I would really buy those phones. And wow Q3, that's supposedly when the ICS comes out for the G2x.
[General Topics] fcpelayo:
I have the amaze awesome phone if you like sense and stock otherwise don't get it. I'm wanting to upgrade but my recommendation is to wait.

1. T-Mobile aws bands are being upgraded to lte.

2. T-Mobile is refarming their 1900 band for hspa+ meaning you can bring almost any phone you want. Domestic and international. And the iPhone as well.

1. Is to be deployed by 2013 maybe complete 2014.

2. Is to be deployed by end of this year maybe complete 2nd quarter 2013

So you can either get something temporary or wait it out
[General Topics] richie390:
:eek: Oh wow! I knew they were upgrading their bands but I didn't know about the 1900 band for HSPA+ so you can bring "almost" any phone I want. Thats awesome!! But my memory is not so good on remembering these stuff but is Q2 is March?
[General Topics] fcpelayo:
Yeah around there that could be start of 2nd quarter or could be the end of it who knows
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
Considering that you want to Rom and mod Motorola is the last company you want any part of. Grab up a Galaxy SII or a Nexus and be glad that you can get such goodness. I'd recommend that you look at the Sony Xperia P as well.
[General Topics] The Janitor Mop:
GS3 is current top of the line. I personally don't like it that much and think it's worth waiting. No idea what's next for T Mob but the next Nexus is always an option.
[General Topics] fcpelayo:
Yeah next nexus or the g3 as well. Plus I hear the gs3 is having ppl lose their imei :eek:
[General Topics] lykos:
HTC One S is the best phone you'll be able to get on Tmobile.
[General Topics] richie390:
Whats wrong with ROMing with Motorola?

Yeah I heard S2, OneS, and Nexus are good phones. But after what fcpelayo said I might just get a phone around September to October.
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
The fact that Moto and VZ find new ways to screw with us after every single update. Trust me, you do not want a new Motorola if flashing Roms is your thing. The Droid 2 and X are the last ones seeing heavy development. Check the available Roms for the Razr and then look at older Droids and newer HTCs and other phones on VZ. Heck, I think the S3 might have more Roms than the RAZR already.

SG3, Note, Galaxy Nexus (get from play store for $350 (until the injunction sets in again), sign up with $30/month 100min 5gb t-mobile prepaid, save $1000 over two years, win).

Next Nexus (with which you can implement the pre-paid plan) and next Note (which with you might not be able to) will also be coming out within a few months.
[General Topics] richie390:
Ahh sounds like LG. But new phones always gets the development these days.

Well the plans Im not worried about but I'll look into it more. Now I'm hearing so much about the next nexus, is it good? Wow phone decisions is hard lol
[General Topics] The Janitor Mop:
We know nothing about the next Nexus as of now. Only thing we've heard is that there may be multiple Nexus phones from different manufacturers. That's a may. And yep, phone decisions are tough. Once you accept that no matter what device you get it will be outdated within 4-6 months, you learn to not take it too seriously.
[General Topics] richie390:
Thats true, and I accept it. But can I ask you guys do you guys prefer the 3 button (Back - Menu - Search)[I think] phones or the 4 button (Menu - Home - Back - Search)?

Because for some reason these nexus and new phones seem to come with the 3 button, and Im not a fan of it.
[General Topics] The Janitor Mop:
Personally, the new button arrangements don't make much sense to me. I prefer what my Sensation has: Home, menu, back, search (and in that order, too; I have never understood placing menu before home, it's the damn home button it should be first). I don't get the arrangement that phones like the One X have: back, home, recent apps. The only button I don't use on my Sensation is search, so I think the proper 3-button arrangement should be : home, menu, back. A recent apps button is pointless because I find that long-pressing home in order to view recent apps (like on my Sensation) works perfectly. Removing the menu button also makes no sense because it was a useful button.

The removal of menu was effectively based on Google's push to move away from it, which I find dumb. But it ultimately isn't that big a deal and even though I don't like the new button arrangements I wouldn't let that deter me from new phones.
[General Topics] Cusa:
New note is using a quad core exynos lte support as well.

Sent from Failtrix.
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
I use the menu button a while heck of a lot more than I do the home key. Menu gives you options everywhere, including inside apps ; home exits to home or brings up recent apps. The menu key is probably more utilized for most users.

[General Topics] mtmerrick:
One thing I want to point out here: the play store edition of the Galaxy Nexus will work on T-Mobile 4G, and you'll get a bring-your-own-phone discount. And, it's development is perhaps the best possible on any android device ;)

Not as much power as the GS3, and a bit smaller screen, but better software and a bit higher PPI.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattish.91:
I recently installed ParanoidAndroid 1.6 and got no sound + microphone when calling/called, is this a common problem or did i do something wrong?

i did format data and cache and still got that problem... is there a solution to this problem?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Make sure you're on modem BLFB or newer.

Older modems are NOT compatible with Cyanogenmod.

How do i know if im on a BLFB modem? Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
does anybody know if there is a complete version of gingerbread cm 7 for the epic touch? the only 1 that I could find was half done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
that's the one... lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Never looked into CM7. Did they just stop supporting it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
yeah I do believe they stopped supporting it, and I love cm 7, too bad they don't pick it back up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
One word. Bubby.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
ok?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Long story short...this dev kangd cm7, stopped halfway thru, got a windows phone but kept telling peeps he was working on this rom. Happened with a couple other items like kernels also. Started something great, then moved on right away. ADD maybe?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
So is it a working ROM? Looking at the thread it had everything but 4g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Mostly yes.....give it a whirl, see if it works for you. I had it installed before.....think I got rid of it due to battery life though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
I'm definitely loving it the battery life seems to be good. Everything works perfect except for 4 g. And that's definitely not an issue for me since I have no 4 g in my area. by the way in case anybody wants to know the launcher that I'm using is called holo launcher. It's just like apex and Nova. But you can use it on gingerbread. Ya know I just wish we had more options for EL29 roms and gingerbread roms like this. It runs sooooo smoooth. It would be awsome if a dev picked this up and finished it! I dont think it has a lot left to do either. Refine the kernel for better battery life and add some cyanogen settings that are missing. I wish I could dev.
