Don't know what the hell is going on but it's so frustrating I am about to throw my phone out the window. Recently I upgraded to stock plus v3.01 ROM and also Ext4 4 ALL kernel since I was running into the dreaded data/data memory full issue. Everything seems to be working fine until recently the phone would slow to a crawl right around midnight, I would be watcing a flash video clip before midnight, then right at 12, everything just slow down and nothing I do would resolve this...I can reboot, take the battery out..etc..phone would still be super slow, pretty much the same way until next morning. GoLauncher EX would crash all the time during this time as well, is if there's some kind of ghost process running in the background sucking up all the resources. I checked Mybackup and doesn't look like there's any schedule backup service...so I am pulling my hair out still don't know what's wrong. Anyone else experienced this before, any idea what can be causing this?
This happened to me when i was using that same rom! What i did was just install a different rom.
Try looking on Ebay for a new flux-capacitor for it they always go bad
I had this ROM too... it was cool, but a battery hog.... Back to CM7 Nightly's.... shouldn't have left to begin with....
1. does not belong in this forum
2. try asking the developer, or even in the ROM's forum
Too much porn. Those midnight shows will do it.

Thanks for the feedback..looks like the ROM is the culprit..time to upgrade to something else
Cool story bro
CM7 nightly
Haven't had any problems with Stock+ regarding this issue....
definitely very strange.....
Very strange issue. Has it been reported to the ROMs dev?
So tried to add this to the alpha 5 topic, but I do not have 10 posts yet.
I flashed from MIKG 3.0 to alpha 5 on Friday with no issues. I ran the fix for the google calendar and was happy with the overall setup. I added the COD tweaks and was impressed with the speed/smoothness of the system. Camera worked out of the box and didn't have any real issues until tonight.
Phone randomly restarted, no big deal. but then I noticed that i had degraded signal. did the *18 call with no change. I had to send a few texts and they all hung and finally failed. restarted phone and same issue occurred.
With the ROM still being a WIP I was not upset, it just isnt a daily driver yet, close though.
next issue was when i restored from nandroid. I hung at the boot screen for ever. Pulled battery and did full wipe and tried again to no avail. I was getting worried at this point. I did have an earlier nan backup of MIKG and that one worked.
Oh and much to my kids dismay angry birds would not load.
Not really looking for any help just trying to get my posts in.
Thanks!

nice info ive been trying to find out how the ics roms are going cuz i havent had time to flash myself. but in regards to your nandroid restore not working. what recovery are you using? (you should use amon-ra 2.3 if you aren't already) and also the mikg restores take a while to load because sense 3.0 is huge, if it doesn't load in about 2-3 minutes then just pull the battery and start it up (don't wipe) and it should boot right up in a reasonable time. it happens occasionally. and welcome to xda saw you had one post so i figured i would welcome you
I have flashed multiple versions of MIKG all wit CWM, it was up in the 7-10 min boot loop time. the kick stand was getting warm. I started with the batt at 90% and when I was finally back up it was at 20%.
I as well can't post. I came from cm7. I used from manager to back up cm7 then install alpha5. Worked fine for me. Using cwm instead of ra though. Not sure if that makes any difference.

I would try to flash with ra. The rom is working great for me as a daily.
Only issue I had with Deck's ICS was no GPS for Navigation.
You may have to do the GPS fix by going into sense rom

I have tried it with no success. Guess my phone just hates GPS It happens with every other ROM I flash. I keep the GPS fix file on my SD card, GPS status/toolbox app, and a fresh sense ROM at hand just in case.

Yeah there's something always wrong with CWM I have used amon-ra since February and have had no problems with it. Also as a sidenote with amon my mikg back up with 300mb of apps took all of 5 minutes to back up and like 8% battery. If your backup drained 70% of your battery there is definately something wrong haha

Glad you posted this here.
I don't have enough posts either. I like the ROM but i had a few random reboots too. I flashed from Team Nocturnal stock RLS.5. I also use CWM for Nandroid. I was getting around in ICS well but had a few hangups. Calandar was the biggest issue, but I think I remember that being mentioned, so no biggie. The only major issue I cared about and I don't know if this has been any one else's problem, but my benchmark was significantly lower on this ROM. 805 on quadrant. Just wanted to post if anyone is reading. That would explain why it was a little jerky.
almost there!! lol
ics was really fun to play with. have u tried swapping to nova launcher? it seemed to free the rom up a bit and make it much more tolerable. I do like trebuchet because it seems to look better imo.
my gps seemed to work fine after i flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15760767&postcount=30 it did cut out eventually but that was after a flash to a 3.0 rom ( not to do the gps fix btw) and nandroiding back sooooo i dunno could have been something got fubared in there
there was a calendar fix somewhere in the 400 page post. you had to flash a specific gapps and calendar fix.
Flashed Decks a5 the day it was released. Loved it. I'm still running CWM and haven't had any issues. I did install the GPS drivers listed in a GPS fix post and use Waze for navigation. Quick lock and solid. Gmail sync and calendar sync worked as well, using Jorte as my calendar. I used the file titled ICSGoogleApps12-16. My only issues were the jerky video and most games I played wouldn't load.
Amazing work, I tried all the other ICS rom's and I had less issues and smoother operations with Deck's.
Great talent. I have no complaints cause I know it is all a work on progress. I can't believe my old EVO is running ICS before my buddy who just got a new phone...... priceless! !!!!!

After flashing any new ROM or ROM update I always flash the latest GPS Fix from here ...

It always fixes GPS lock for me (CM7 nightlies, ICS Evervolv, Deck ICS). Always Nandroid backup of course. I don't use Sense ROM's so YMMV.

Similar experience as well.
I'm using the Google Calender sync and don't seem to be having any problems with it. Haven't tried that GPS fix though, gunna try that tonight.
I've noticed as looking through the official thread it seems many people have a problem with the trebuchet (sp) launcher on page 7 of the widgets. I'm having no issues. Anyone else like this?

I had an issue with the stock launcher on page 7 of the widgets. I just switched to Nova Launcher and have had not problems, in fact I personally like it better.
I've also been using this rom lately. Although it has some features broken, its still very very usable. Makes me realize how much I don't use "premium" features.

Also, this from us very snappy and smooth. But when I do quadrant benchmarks, it gets a score of about 945, which is lower than stock evo and lower than my 1500 scoring miui rom, but it feels faster nonetheless. Is this a product of the hardware acceleration?

After testing many of the KF ROMs around here. I am stick to the ReloadedROM. The latest release 1.1 it is pretty stable... we are just missing a new kernel allowing hardware acceleration and... that is it.
Agreed, the new version of the rom is flawless except for the minor exception of hwa. Has anyone tried to use the blue reflective soft key mod yet? I can't seem to get it to work

I look forward to trying ReloadedRom as soon as I am able to root my Kindle! I am doomed to driver issues on my PCs (tried everything this point) and now await an update to Kindle Water to root on my Mac. Then to flash this rom and abandon stock launcher forever!
Agree! it runs smoothly. On my kindle, it froze when using APEX launcher, but after switched to Trebuchet 0.1, it hasn't had any problem.

Once again, Thank you. I love all the support! My computer kinda crapped out on me but it is working pretty good again, I really should get a new one! The OP was updated with a new bug (build.prop messup [my mistake]) so be sure to read it!
This ROM was my first ever flash on the KF, and I'm super satisfied.
I mistook-ingly believed the lack of HWA would cause the UI to feel choppy and that games wouldn't run fine.
I don't know what lack of HWA is losing me, because everything feels pretty freaking awesome and games run fine.

Do some research into HWA and you will find that is mainly an issue with small pieces of media (some videos, and some games, etc.)

I'm not sure on how it compares with stock, but people are telling me it gets better than other ICS and CM7 roms so... it's pretty good!
I finally got root and flashed Reloaded. Fantastic. Too soon to comment on battery life, but the overall feel is super smooth and it looks incredible.

It's always good to hear from users!
Well guys I ordered this from Walmart on the 18th and it got to my house today around lunch. It does have some pretty bad light bleed at the 2 bottom corners but if I turn up the brightness it is less noticeable. But I haven't watched a dark HD quality movie like the new batman in a dark room either. Been researching this device for the last few months and was skeptical to get it after hearing so many problems with the screens and the lagging situation in the stock browser and games. I have been rooting and romming phones since my att captivate i897 with the help of everyone here at xda of course and now I want to make my nexus 10 a better experience than what I'm getting out of the box. I know, I know there are tons and tons of threads on here with guys in my exact situation and I need to read,read, and read some more. Plus Google search bar is my friend when it comes to knowledge. I know all this already. What I wanted to know from you nexus 10 owners is this..........
1. Is mskips toolbox the way to go with this device ( I already downloaded it)
2. Are you guys having better results running a custom ROM with clock able kernel to help alleviate the lag issues?
3. Also wanted to know which browser you guys like the best quickness wise and least laggy?
4. I have not installed the update yet either. It says it's ready to install. Should I or are you guys having more issues with 4.2.1?
5. Can I do what I normally do once rooted and take off all the Google bloatware that I don't need with tibu?
Guys I'm really not trying to beat a dead horse and yes I will continue to read everything I possibly can on my situations because (knowledge is power)!
Thanks in advance guys for any tips or advice!
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda premium
BTW guys I just wanted to say that I'm sitting in my pitch black garage typing this with the brightness set pretty low and my eyes really don't notice the light bleed that much or maybe it just doesn't bother me that much. I also wanted to say that I'm definitely a nerd when it comes to having the latest devices with the best hardware and I'm happy with my nexus 10. This is my first tablet and I know that the apps designed for this will come eventually. I know the games will too. As of now I think I made a good choice. If the light bleed bothers me enough or I can't fix my lagging situation or waiting for a while sometimes for a page too open like on here the xda app, I can always return it for a refund. I don't see that happening anytime soon.
Sorry for the long rants.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda premium
Best advice....don't do anything (root/ROM) until you've spent a week or more with the tablet stock. Go ahead and take the update, you may want to factory reset after it though to make sure you are sitting on a clean, stock, 4.2.1 system. I've had zero issues with the update...or my tablet.
Play with the tablet, get a feel for the hardware/OS stock and see if you need to (or want to) install a ROM later. Also this gives you a chance to have a base feel for comparison if you do install a ROM later
Make the decision based on your experiences with the tablet and not on what you read here.
So far I've found no uses to Rom It. My S3 is running AOKP only because WiFi Tether and a couple other features...like cpu throttle/battery life. I think I'm going to keep my N10 pretty much stock....but I do have Nova running...pretty smooth and update went smooth as well. It does get frozen from time to time, but a simple reboot fixes it. I
When Freezing occurs or major lag - This is a new device and new O.S. updates will come.
Thank you very much guys for your input. I did use mskips toolbox to unlock,root, and add recovery. Main reason is all the lag I'm experiencing with chrome browser and in games. Want to install AOKP browser. Very smooth compared to chrome. Also wanted to be able to maybe add an overclockable kernel to speed things up a little in gaming. Need for speed most wanted and defense zone 2 HD has horrible Lag. That upsets me too because this thing has awesome internals and I know it can shine at anything I throw at it with just a little help from guys on here at xda. I'll just keep my thoughts to myself because there are enough threads here to complain about what Google and Samsung could have did to make this tablet shine.

Ocean browser is the way to go. By far the smoothest browser I've seen on android. I used PaulObrien's super boot I think its called to root without unlocking. I did that and then took the official OTA updates. Worked a charm.

1. Not a big fan of any toolkits; so I don't know (I do stuff manually )
2. Might be placebo, but I've had a better experience in CM 10.1 nightlies than stock; but then again, CM has a more updated Kernel and source (atm)
3. AOSP Chrome isn't too bad either actually (I haven't experienced any of the horror most people seemed to report)
4. Update
5. You can freeze unneeded apps (or just remove them), install adblockers, and get access to certain data files

Am i the only one that has noticed some significant slowdowns in android 4.3 as opposed to 4.2.2? Even simple things like pulling down the notification bar or swiping between tabs in chrome have laggy animations now, which wasn't the case before.

Mine felt that way for a day but seemed to really smooth out after a few reboots and time I believe it might be the way the new OS deals with the phones data just needs a bit of time to smooth itself out.
The OTA update has made my phone nothing but faster which is great because this phone was never even close to being slow in the first place.
i've been using Slimbean 4.3 Build 1 Alpha and its really smooth, only a couple of known bugs. Faster than Weekly 7.8.

Yes, I have the exact same issue as you. Driving me nuts. I'm running the stock rom but Faux kernel. Unfortunately, I don't recall if I had this issue prior to the kernel change. Going to try to revert back to stock kernel. If that doesn't help I'm going to re-flash from scratch. I flashed the OTA...maybe something went wrong.
UPDATE: I flashed back to the stock kernel and all lag in the animations are gone. Everything is silky smooth. I had tried different CPU governors in faux kernel before going back to stock but they all had the same lag. Odd though, I've never had performance issues with faux before.

Swiping down the notification panel is too glitchy. And also when I take screenshot, it slows down and I am not able to see the SC's animation.
It is noticeably slow for me. Even home screen animations are slow.
Any fix guys?

Try a clean flash of stock 4.3 ROM (JWR66V) since a lot of the custom ROMs are in the early stages of development. Maybe refrain from flashing a custom kernel until you experience 100% stock for a bit.
Totally stock and mine seems to be performing better than it was.

I am experiencing this too, but I am on Rasbean 4.3. For some reason compared to stoch, Rasbean feels choppy. IDK why because RAS is an amazing developer. I did a full wipe too anyone else experience this on 4.3 custom roms?

Just done what you have listed above and the answer is no; its not slower, at least my stock install. I don't have bugs like the weird black bar when selecting recently used apps
. I'll continue to monitor but for now its fine.
I experienced the same less than smooth performance as well. It got a little better in smoothness and less bugging out over time, but it may just be me getting acquainted with it and being a placebo.
This was from a factory image flash, but I may give it a go again if it continues to be a problem. I doubt it'll fix it.
Just got a new Nexus 4 (white) and updated it to 4.3... Smooth as N4 has always been... Completely stock

I'm sure it's just AOSP. Things will get smoothed out in the weeks to come, I'm sure.
