[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
There's never going to be a definite answer on this. How do you define "lag"?

What are you looking for in your rom?

How do you use your tablet?

You just have to try them all and decide for yourself...

I'm always like: ???????????? when someone reports lag on CROMi-X. I just don't get it, because I don't have it.....

I tried CM 10.2 and CM 11 on this tablet and I found them to be slower and (to me more importantly) a hell of a lot buggier than CROMi-X!

But again: I guess not only beauty but also lag and performance is in the eye of the beholder....
[Asus Transformer TF700] CalPolyRock:
[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] did an amazing job with 4.2. So did hunds and _that. No disrespect. Just after running 4.2 for a long time, I'd like to run something newer as long as it's responsive. I don't care about benchmarks as I said before.

I'm hoping sbdags have the chance to do the same with 4.3 or 4.4 if Asus releases it for the 700, or 701 and then back port to the 700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Newer and frankenrom'd doesn't translate into "better" IMHO.. But everybody rolls differently...

sbdags released his beta for the TF701 on 4.3 already. There won't be much porting back though - Tegra4 framework is just too different. But I bet the roms for the Tf701 will be even better because he has so much experience with tweaking the Asus roms
[Asus Transformer TF700] huy_lonewolf:
Have you watched the Google's 2012 I/O keynote where Google introduced Android 4.1 and Project Butter? Google has clearly defined what they perceive as lag in Android as situations where the UI's frame rate drops below 60 fps and you can clearly see stutter in animation, which is why Google also introduced Systrace to profile app performance. If the frame rate drops significantly below 60 fps (which I always encounter in the stock app drawer), you will see things like transition effect stutters when swiping between pages or the laggy fly-in effect when you open the app drawer. If you have a Nexus 10 to compare, the difference in terms of frame rate is so apparent that it is almost impossible not to notice. If someone had a high-end camera that can capture 60 fps or 120fps videos like the one Google used to demo Android 4.1, we could easily capture all these instances of lags on videos and had a more scientific discussion. To me, the Nexus 10 is the gold standard of 10-inch tablet performance and I have yet to see another non-Nexus 10-inch tablet (besides the iPad, if I may) that deliver the same level of performance, regardless of ROMs being used.

Moreover, not to discount the work that the xda community has put into improving performance, there are simply too many ways that you can make an Android device drop frames here and there. Even powerful devices like the Note 3 can fail to deliver constant 60 fps UI frame rate. I'm sure with the right combination of widgets and apps, you can also make the Nexus 10 stutter. Or simply, you can just fill up 90% of the internal storage and watch how the performance degrades. To be honest, it is much harder to believe that there is no lag at all, regardless of devices and ROMs that you use. Even Google said that Project Butter is not perfect and still an ongoing effort.

Lastly, workload can also dramatically affect performance and make instances of lags more noticeable, so your usage pattern is a factor. Personally, even on CROMI-X, my tablet could become really laggy if I used it for my work like the other day, even with only 3 apps in my recent apps list: Adobe Reader to read a big pdf file (a 100-page annual report of a company, with a lot of text and images), the stock Browser to research relevant information with around 10 tabs, one being facebook desktop site (seriously, the facebook desktop site is really terrible on Android), Merriam Webster Dictionary app to look up certain words, all in landscape mode. In that scenario, my tf700 performed just like a big slide show.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
+1 all the way.

BUT reg the Nexus: No external storage - no deal. For me......
[Asus Transformer TF700] huy_lonewolf:
I am in the same boat as you, which is why I am very excited to see more of those Google Play Edition devices. I highly doubt that there will ever be a Google Play Edition Transformer tablet, but it would be fantastic to have one.

CMB

I switched from CROMi-X to CMB (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2577165) a couple of days ago and I am really happy with it.

@lj50036 has done a great job and so far I haven't had any issues/sluggishness although it is based off CM11. The dock works like a charm as well :)

The only thing that did not work was being able to use ART on CMB for me.

Great thanks. I certainly hadn't set it previously, so it would have been the default value. Think I'll wait for the next stable 4.4 release to come out (once I've done my back ups on 4.3 :^) ) and try it again. The inner geek in me wants to be on 4.4.....

As an aside, can I ask a quick question? On 4.2 when the SD disc is mounted it shows up in the activity box (top left). On my installs of 4.3 & 4.4 it doesn't (shows that it is preparing the sd when inserted, but not subsequently). Is this normal behaviour? Was this dropped by google or was it an Asus specific inclusion?

Hmm not sure, Tim the dev would be best to answer that for you, when I was running 4.2.2 I was using the Tablet UI mode which has all the notifications at the bottom right and rarely removed the MicroSD Card, I generally only use it for Nandroid backups and copying ROMs to via FTPServer app so it normally just stays put

Hey guys, I've been driving myself CRAZY trying to find an answer to this! ._. Hopefully one of you can help! :) So I have the T-Mobile variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (t0ltetmo) and it has a custom ROM on it, however, when I do a nandroid backup with clockworkmod recovery, IT DOESN'T SAVE MY APNs! When I restore, I have no APNs and NO SERVICE! I always have to flash a clean ROM again -,- Right now, the newest CWM recovery that Rom Manager has to offer is version 6.0.4.3. My question is, Is there another version that DOES support kitkat backups, or does TWRP recovery backup kitkat ROMS without issue? Thanks guys! Hope somebody can help because this is driving CRAZY! :confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Zolagiggy:
Hi, my brother gave me a used Droid Bionic which I successfully rooted and installed a custom recovery on (Liquidsmooth to be exact) using Safestrap recovery 3.11 but kept my stock rom in a slot.

So basically I now got a problem. I thought I'd try CM11 from the Cyanogenmod website (snaphot) when I created a new slot rom and try to install, I got an error. It was a failed process.

I thought I'd try again so I wiped everything Factory reset, data, cache...etc still failed..

Then I uninstall safestrap recovery using the stock rom and saw that I can use CWM like my other phone Samsung fascinate in rootzwiki. I followed this thread called [Guide] How to install ClockworkMod Recovery from adroidman

but before I installed the bionic boot strap, I made a huge mistake I formatted The internal 8 gb storage then I rebooted to see if that caused any problems and it did basically..

I deleted the /data and /sdcard because I formatted the internal storage and every time I reboot, I get a Encryption Unsuccessful message and it tells me to reset phone. I did but same message. Am I screwed?? I know I still have my stock rom in there but can't access it. Also every time I connect my phone I no longer see the internal storage instead my 32 gb sd card.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] hpgeno:
All need some help. I'm trying to utilize the Push Mail technology. I have set up to sync with an exchange server correctly, however within our company we use certificates to authenticate. So I expported my certificate and imported it into my 8125. When I go to look at my certs in my 8125 I see that it imported successfully. Now when I try to sync it asks for the password and it comes back with an error code of 0x85030028 (cannot obtain a valid cert). Now if I use my PIE and go to the OWA which utilizes the cert as well it sees it and authenticates just fine. For some reason activesync isn't seeing it. Any ideas how to fix?

Geno
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] shoey5:
From what I know, you can't use certificates with Push email. You have to setup a new virtual site on the server running OWA called it Exchange-PPC or something and have it set for Intergrated Authentication, then you would configure your device to hit the new site like http://www.site.com/exchange/username or something like that.

There's a little more than just setting up the site, some registry changes, check Microsofts site for the error number, you'll find a KB document explaining how to setup the Virtual Site for syncing with your device.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] mht20:
Hello,

I'm using dashclock with widgetlocker on an unrooted device.

I am trying to make my lock screen look like the screenshot on the left (3 small icons to the right of the clock). I added an example (in the attachment), since I unable post links (image taken from Google).

I'm not sure if it's the grid I'm using (5x6), or something else - but the 2nd icon ends up getting cropped. If I hit resize and increase the width, the notifications/icons become expanded, similar to the photo on the right (which I do not want).

Is there a solution to this? Any help would be great. Attached is a screenshot of my current setup.

Hello, is there a way I can make a name for my device so that when downloading apps on the Google Play Store, I can recognize it quicker. For instance, I own a Chinese tablet and when I try to download some apps on Google Play, it displays all the device that I have. However, when comes to the tablet, it will only show the model name of the tablet and the name of the manufacturer remains unknown. For example, Unknown Core4. Therefore, I would like to know that if there is a way that I could make a name for the device so that it will display on Google Play and other Google Service. Thanks.

Hi,

If you go to the google play store on a desktop select the gear button on the right. (just under your username). Select Devices.

You will be diverted to a seperate browsertab with a google maps interface. There you will be able to find your devices (if they have GPS) and also rename them.

Good luck

The phone supports GSM 2G 850/900/1800/1900 Mhz, and 3G HSDPA 1700/2100 Mhz ranges. This means 99% that it should be able to work with your GSM operator, but you'd better ask his tech support.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] davidf9:
I use mine in England, as I wanted a physical keyboard too. Been using it for 2 years now, and it's all fine including 3G and HDSPA. I don't think it'll work with English 4G, but there's not much of that round by me anyway.

Had to get it SIM-unlocked, but after that it was straightforward. There were a few problems with the stock ROM (like group contacts) that didn't work ('cause I wasn't on T-mobile?), and I had to manually enter the APNs for data to work. These went away when I rooted it, and all subsequent ROMs picked up GiffGaff's APNs automatically.

The keyboard is ok, but don't get your hopes up too high. I say that simply because I presume you've never seen/tried one. It's also a bit of a heavyweight, much heavier than others. But I'd still recommend it, and nobody else you know will have one.

Install a stock TW (4.3 MJA or MK2) ROM and activate it that way. Probably easiest is the full MK2 .tar via Odin (it's here, just search; I've posted to it a few times)

You shouldn't to reactivate if you've already done that. I didn't get that you'd done that already. But if you do go back to stock, activate then maker sure to update your PRL and Profile.

If you're active on Sprints network with you imei only thing you should have to do with another ROM is the initital setup stuff. But not the 'Handsfree Activation stuff.

You could also try resetting the activation/phone by using the dialer code ##72786# (in TW ROM)
