Just look at your free ram under Apps -> active with 4.2.2 and then with 4.1.2.

4.2.2 is a mess with our phone thats all. You get redraws and laggy performance cuz you have around 50mb free on 4.2.2 for caching apps or sometimes less. Thats not enough for lagfree performance.

With 4.1.2 i got with all my apps open still around 200-250mb free ram, so the system never runs out of gas.

Google wants us to buy new hardware, thats the reason. Who needs new phone if everything is running like a beast?

So for everyone whos hoping that 4.3 gonna make our phone fly, i just laugh at this cuz this won't happen...ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] E66666666:
So I'm on a custom ROM (AOKP Nightly) on 4.2.2. I flashed the ROM because I thought 4.2.2 was unbearable, but this ROM is even worse. I get a horrible lag all the time.

Are there still ROMs based on 4.1.2 with customization options? I think Google considers the Galaxy Nexus to be EOL. I really like the options to change about everything in AOKP but I hate the performance on 4.2.2.

Hmm, I don't know... What does AOKP have CM doesn't have? With the problems I'm experiencing I'm afraid of staying :p

I see that CM10 is pretty stable and works well for everyone who has reported it. Also would I lose my customization options? I very much like the customizable power toggles and I can't find the exact features of each ROM. Switching would just be an annoyance if it turned out to be even worse ;_; This is my main phone so I can't afford to be offline for too long.

That works with some ROMs if the kernels have many options built into them for tweaking using Trickster Mod.

I usually do it via root explorer man just move it and chmod 644 it, or maybe you could try titanium backup to do it?

I think the most outstanding reason why 4.1.x > 4.2.x in my eyes is that, 4.1.x manages ram on the galaxy nexus wonderfully, whereas 4.2.x is horrible with ram management.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soldier 2.0:
Yes Sir. I was able to move it without force close by clearing cache, deleting data, manually force closing, then temporarily deselecting the notification for that app. I moved it, then set everything back the way it was then odexed it. My phone feels like it drank too many energy drinks! :high five:

4.1.2 ram disk is super fast. That's why I keep moving my favorite apps to system then odex!

I use Titanium, but I'm sure you can do it manually the way you described. Just MAKE SURE you clear cache, data and stop the process. If the app uses your Google sign in, remove your Google account then add after moving the app. Otherwise your phone will go haywire.

Definetly better. Try yourself.you well feel how the speed and smoothness better on 4.1.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soldier 2.0:
I use Titanium. See screenshot. All the way to the top you see an option to clear the dalvik. Do that first then select the second option to odex your system. It will automatically odex all system apk that do not have one attached. After that I go into recovery and I clear the dalvik and cache. This is probably unnecessary, but I do it for peace of mind. For an added boost, I use lagfix app found in the Playstore every couple of days.

I went back to 4.2.2. After checking this thread;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2178962

I decided to give Paranoid Android 3.56 a try. I have been using the Holo Spiral live wallpaper, and I haven't had any lag in the last 12-14 hours. As of right now, I have ~170 MB of ram free. But it ranges from 165-210 MB. Actually watching it now, it's at 248 MB. I don't have the launcher redrawing all the time, like I used to with CM 10.1, and AOKP. I can't comment on bluetooth, as I don't use it, so I don't know if the issues from 4.2.2 are fixed in the PA rom. Camera app seems to be a bit quicker than I've seen in other 4.2.X based roms, but this may just be all in my head.

It's not quite as snappy as 4.1.X, but I have been having a great experience thus far. I'll provide updates, to let everyone know if that changes.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zandroid:
On another 4.2.2 note, why does the camera re-draw when you go from vertical to horizontal view? In 4.1.2 when you turn the camera from vertical to horizontal and vice verse it turns the icons (camera, flash, zoom, etc.). On 4.2.2 when you turn the camera it starts to switch the icons, but then redraws to display horizontal or vertical view. It's not smooth. That always bugged me. Happened on every 4.2.2 ROM I tried. Anyone else notice this or was there a patch or something I missed? It keeps me from installing the 4.2.x camera on CNA 3.8.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tokuzumi:
I've always wondered this myself. Why not just rotate the buttons, like the camera apps in previous versions of Android did? I wonder if this had anything to do with the Google/Apple litigation, where Google changed the lock screen circle to unlock the phone regardless of what direction you swiped? Previously, you had swipe to the right to unlock, and swipe left to open the camera. That changed in 4.2, as well as the camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johngreener:
LOL...do you think older version of android should be better than newer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soldier 2.0:
Right, because newer is always better.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zandroid:
I thought Apple mostly went after Samsung, but maybe that was hardware. In any event, it looks like Google could have found a better way to handle it. The transition is always so abrupt. I wonder if the N4, 4.2.x camera does the same transition or if it's only the GNex. Perhaps 4.3 will be an improvement.

**EDIT**

I did a Google search (imagine that) and found this issue already reported: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=53008

According to this post, found in a merged bug thread, the camera is working as designed. The camera/system UI has to redraw to allow the system to rotate so that when you swipe to view recently taken photos, the other interfaces are in the correct orientation.

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39595#c43

Further down, the Android project member elaborates more on the issue or non-issue, however you want to look at it.

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39595#c61

I see what he is saying, but the trade off, IMO, is poor. I tested this in 4.1.2. When you change orientation, then swipe to see recent pictures, the pictures are in the correct orientation. However, if you tap the picture to get the editing/sharing bar, then it redraws to put that in the correct orientation. This to me is a much better trade off, as the redrawing in the camera/picture capturing app takes away from the user experience. Redrawing when reviewing my pictures is just a minor annoyance.

I'm always reminded of the attached picture of the software development cycle when I see issues like this.

Transition is the same with the N4 camera, but there is no lag.
