cool story bro

Mind sharing the links to the ROM/Kernel/etc.?

Thanks

Heres the battery life .
Did quite alot of texting to day so not that good.

Thanks for the updates, mate!

lookin for good combo too

It's everything working in the rom? Suport for themes?
I was looking for a combo like this one...

Yes everything seams to be working fine a new build has just been released, havent updated yet tho.

Trying out this combination with build 33, my quadrant is reading around 1600... very smooth though

Dude thats pretty tops battery life . Can you post a link for that rom?

I'm thinking of rooting soon. Just been using stock so far.
Stock seems nippy but sometime I get a blank screen and lag when going back to home from apps such as Chrome beta.
Do stock roms and kernals make a big difference performance wise?
Also, I would like a rom where everything works with no problems.
Any suggestions?

The lag is due to the launcher going out of memory. Our nexus has only 512 MB ram. Flash a kernel with Bigmem mod and it would be gone.
I feel they do make a difference but stock is naturally the most stable rom.
For a stable rom try:
Stable versions of CM9
Milestone releases of AOKP
Bugless beast for a close to stock experience,

My ns4g was laggy before.
I'm running stock rom with matrix kernel and apex launcher. Couldn't be happier and my phone is lag free and 10x snappier running @1485mhz

Stock ICS was very laggy for me even with different kernels, OC, and launchers.
When I switched to custom roms (CyberGR and now CM9 nightly) that lag completely disappeared even without OC.
I've been on CM9 a week now and it's worked pretty much flawlessly.
Highly recommended.

Still a buggy phone!!

The Nexus S is quite possibly the best but most frustrating phone I've ever had. I love the hardware and the android OS. I still get random reboots, sometimes sms notifications never show up, and sometimes when I get a phone call the phone becomes unresponsive.
I've been using the latest NSCollab rom for several versions and have never over/under clocked. I clear the dalvik cache after every update and clear data/restore with titanium backup whenever necessary.
I'll feel like I've been doing everything correctly, yet I'm still left with a phone that gives me a lot of grief. What's the problem here? How can I fix this? This is extremely frustrating with no obvious solution.
I had a lot of problems with the nexus s... Now i have a galaxy sii, but i still have the nexus. Using the nscollab, i had a looooot of problems, now the phone are with the stock 2.3.4, in my tests, everything is fine. I will sell it now.

I don't know what kernel that rom uses but that and settings on voltages make the whole difference in stability. Something like stock rom with stock kernel or cm7 with stock or netatchys kernel are always good choices and will give you stability.
Just IMHO

I believe NSCollab is Cm7 with netarchy and the stock gingerbread launcher -- nothing crazy here.

NSCollab 1.0.35
Android : GB 2.3.4
System : CyanogenMod 7.1 [RC1] [CM Team]
Kernel : Netarchy CFS 1.3.4 [Netarchy]
Truth of the matter is that I've yet to come across a ROM that's rock solid. I've tried them all and always had either lots of random reboots, bootloops, or sluggishness.
I went back to stock last Thursday and it's been butter smooth since. No problems or anything of the sort.

That's both good and bad news. Good news: there's a fix. Bad news: I really like some of CM7's features, but I guess it must go.
I'll give the stock rom a shot I guess.

The Oxygen ROM is very stable aswell.
i tried several roms, but after all i came back to stock, it is stable and fast.. I do miss many features from cm7, but i guess i can live without it.
currently i'm trying to find a kernel with a battery life as good as stock one... i really miss bln ...
All I'm saying look into your voltage settings. Each phone will work different and you have to play with adjusting them. It also takes some time and patience.

No matter what rom I use I end up going back to stock. I don't even think the net kernel is good enough.

no ROM I've tried has ever compared to stock, especially 2.3.4, when it comes to stability.
I tried Many ROMs but all before 2.3.4 (end of April?) and none was able to run for more than a few days without some kind of reboot/bootloop etc.
2.3.4 has been running flawlessly ever since.
Current uptime is like 1100+ hrs and that too cause i had to remove battery to change SIM card.
Hi,
I have installed NSCollab 1.0.35 on a week and have not problems on my Nexus S.
To resume, i had some endless bootloop and a lot of reboot on long calls.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
My 2 cents:
I'm on NSCollab 1.0.34, Netharky 1.3.4, KB3, OV to 1.2 Ghz, UV with protonvoltage. Gingerbread 2.3.4
I find this combo much faster than the stock one, smooth and pretty stable. Actually I have some reboots when I stress a lot my device, but they are rare.
So I don't want to renounce to Cyanogen features as the stock rom was really slow IMHO and I will give a try to NSCollab 1.0.35 very soon!
No problems in answering, good radio performance, faster than light (quadrant score: 3600) !! I can survive with a couple of reboot in a week!!
Too much porn?

Why don't you people stop confusing CM7 with a stable ROM? CyanogenMod and netarchy kernel are probably the most crappy android software that were ever made.
I suggest you use Oxygen ROM and Jame Bond kernel. No fancy quadrant benchmarks, stock ROM with basic functions like notification power control and text reflow in browser, zipaligned and all that stuff. Delete setcpu, delete juicedefender and other crappy so called battery savers, do not undervolt and do not touch the CPU frequency. Just let the ROM run like it is supposed to, don't fill it with all the bloatware you find on market that is said to increase performance or battery life, all they do is eating system resources.
I have yet to find a better combination like this for the nexus S, I am using the ROM since 3 days now without a single reboot/FC/freeze/bootloop. I am playing order and chaos MMO 2-3 hours and I can go through the full day without problems, the phone is responsive and simply works, no fancy sh*t.
Using the stock, all is fine..

Fastest Nexus Rom

K guys
since we are flashing new rom daily lets create a poll which is fastest for us
for me i think cyanogenmod is fast
Oxygen 2.2.1 most definitely
...in bed.
CM7 nightly works great for me after setting the overclocker
#Devnull is the fastest rom out there. no question, it flies. follow by #oxygen 2.1.6
I'm on stock 2.3.5 rooted with the Touchwiz 4 launcher. Love it.
I would vote for MIUI (tried it, loved it), but went back to stock because no way to get to EPST and gvoice acts wonky on it in my experience.
i have tried Cyanogen, MIUI (all three) and Oxygen. Oxygen is without a doubt the fastest!
Oxygen is fast but has severe browser lag (just like stock) - I have changed to NScollab based on cyanogenmod nightlies. No browser lag and fast as hell
Definitely NSCollab with the new Matr1x 5.5 OC'ed kernel. Score's well on all front's & is stable enough to be your daily driver

SuperOSR [formally SuperAOSP] though I would say DevNull 1.1 is blazing fast too. Usually its compromise between speed and features. Everyone has his/her own preferences
Oxygen 2.2.1 is vefy very fast : much faster than 2.1.6
Oxygen is faster than Cyanogen, nscollab and Stock, for sure.
Battery is better in Cyanogen

Try Oxygen with matr1x 5.5 : helped me.
Also, you can increase a bit the minimum cpu speed to 400, but will increase battery consumption 1% per hour in stand by.

i'm kind of dissapointed, i was expecting to see some screenshots of bench scores
come on guys show us some screens
I haven't tried many roms, but it's hard for me to figure out a rom faster than latest NSCollab 1.0.38 with Matr1x kernel 5.5
I say this because my phone runs smooth like butter, fast like hell, good battery life...almost unbeliavable!
But in reality I don't think this survey is correct as I'm confident that fastness and smoothness is only a question of Kernel, not the entire rom!!
Quadrant score: 3600 - 3800
Vellamo score: 930 - 940

70% depends on rom and 30% depends on kernel

How would we know, the new leak was just released 4/1/12. Try it out and find out for yourself. They all have bugs, nothing most xda-ers would consider deal breaker.

Stunner. Period.

Stunner, stunner period!!!
It depends. Would you like a complete stock Android experience, or would you like Samsungs S-Pen apps and features?
For the first one Imilka's is great. ICS Stunner, stock android, with lots of tweaks and options, is also a good choice.
If you would like the second, Midnote 3.0 is pretty good.
I'd recommend trying at least those three roms out.
It is difficult for people to recommend roms because of each user specific needs and requirements.
You will have to test them out yourself.
I'm on Midnote 3.0 at the moment and it's pretty good for normal use in my opinion.
Midnote because it's the only one that's given me fully functional Flash.

The weird thing is that Youtube works but nothing else does. Stunner has the best look and feel but having Netflix is too important.

I used most of ICS builds, but the best at moment is ICS Stunner 4.3. Fast and stable.
I installed every new ROM, realy Stunner is best one

I tried ICS for the past couple of days, was using Stunner and Imilka's. I used Midnote 3.0 for 5minutes, realised my modem was not working and switched roms (lazy to fix hehe .. All ROMs were speedy, especially setting the UI options to 0.5x performance (not sure what is the exact name of the settings, all i know is that its in developer settings). I can't comment much about the 0.2GHz increase, but it didn't really bother me when i was on LP1.
Between Imilka (was using v7), Midnote 3.0 and Stunner (4.3, latest LP5), Stunner suited me the most because there were less bugs, the ability to change from phone to tablet with more convenience. Mainly Stability/functionality/convenience (eg toggles) issues. Battery life on ICS was not bad, draining 1% for every 1.5 hrs of deep sleep in 2G+Data. However running apps caused my note to be warmer and drain was higher compared to GB.
However Rocketrom v23 + Franco Test kernel still pulled me back to GB today with S-pen full functionality + stock photo editor/ on the fly editing for screenshot. Stability and awesome battery life contributed much as well.

LMAO, you trolling here? You knew from the very beginning that Jelly Belly was blocking other kernels.
I'm running JellyBelly 1.0.0 and it is very, very stable and fast. While it's fine to note that the dev locked down the kernal you should also note that this is specifically so he can fight bugs a little better.
Great rom, definitely recommend it!

Right. Maybe I'm new or ignorant or something but I understand the urge to keep things open and flash super cool kernals or whatever but using this method you can do what you want, but like always don't go to the dev with issues if you flashed your custom kernal.
Like I said though... great ROM, very stable, highly recommend it!

Been using Jelly Belly for about a week without problems and i would say it's ready for daily use. Hadn't had any reboots, FC's or other crazy stuff..i value stability with the basic functions such as phone calls and messaging and it hasn't let me down so far on that part. As for the kernel lockdown, it's a small price to pay for stability so i don't mind personally but i know some in here have taken a almost religious stance about it. However, you can still remove the limitation afaik and if not there are plenty of other ROM's to choose from
I'm using JellyBelly since 0.1.5 and i can say it run really smooth with thalamus kernel. Since it's already stable, i will just stick with it.
My favourite kernel before this is Air Kernel but since i didn't have problem with JellyBelly + kernel provided i don't think i'll need to flash Air Kernel. I might change kernel if there's new feature in other kernel.
So i recommended JellyBelly with it provided kernel as your daily rom.

Jellybelly 1.0 has the kernel restriction hard coded in it. Not the init d script.
You will not be running another kernel on it until he removes that.
And screw this thread. Try out the Roms for yourself.
I switched from jelly belly to cm10 jelly bro and really like it. Battery life seemed to take a hit after one of the nightlies so I did a clean install of the next and just put went back to the trinity kernel and things seem to have improved.
Jellybelly has been good to me, amazing screen on battery life (4+ hours daily w/ games most of it) smooth and stable
Jelly Belly powered Nexus S
As good as JellyBelly has been for me, it appears as though he's stopped development over all the *****ing. I guess it's time to start looking for another rom again.

He must be going through a tough time, or just simply got sick of it ether way it's not the end of JB just yet.

[Q] (Q) Reccomend rom and kernel combo?

Hi you guys, I just got my nexus 4 a week ago and rooted it right away.
I have been looking through the list of roms and I honestly don't know which is right for me.
I'm looking for a STABLE rom that knows how to balance battery life and power.
I don't care too much for customization, just a little would be nice (Nothing too overbearing).
It would be if the rom just knew what it was doing, and doesn't need me to constantly tweak things.
SO in all, just the BEST reccomnded rom and kernal combo.
Thank you in advance.
EDIT: I am currently running the stock rom, and franco r53 kernel
Slimbean. Stable, no bugs. As for kernels, they all are good. I like trinity and matrix
You will get a lot of different feedback what is the best. In the end it's a matter of taste.
atm I like AOKP with faux123 kernel. I heard the Minco Rom which comes with franco kernel should be very stable and smooth. And this rom and kernel where developed and supposed to work together:
"Welcome to the cross collaboration between myself & Francisco Franco.
We're proud to announce the first and ONLY Franco supported ROM. This ROM has been built from AOSP Jelly Bean."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061573
I don't know if you already know this "index"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975842
try some of the AOSP ROMs and see what's best for you. Since there is no best combo for everyone.
Try EVERYTHING! Every phone is different as is every person.
I could just go on about how I now swear to Trinity and AOKP, but you'll never really know the answer to your own question unless you experiment. The experimenting is the best part :3

I use ParanoidAndroid with Harsh's kernel.
Of course this is subjective, but having tried all kernels (except Matrix and Trinity) Harsh's one is the fastest and smoothest one with good battery life. I think other kernels have better battery life as they disable mpdecision, but this comes at the loss of smoothness which I personally prioritise.
As for the ROM, I haven't tried any since I flashed PA first. I don't think I'm ever going to even consider switching ROM's - that's how awesome it is :good:
But as everybody else is saying, you have to try everything yourself, not like that's a burden since everybody on XDA loves flashing stuff. It's fun!

As for the ROM, I haven't tried any since I flashed PA first. I don't think I'm ever going to even consider switching ROM's - that's how awesome it is :good:
But as everybody else is saying, you have to try everything yourself, not like that's a burden since everybody on XDA loves flashing stuff. It's fun!

MINCO, really lite
Sorry i didn't make this clear earlier. But i care MUCH more about battery life than performance. I use my phone constantly, wether that means texting or reddit or games. I'm sure the nexus' hardware can more than keep up with these tasks but I'm getting relatively poor battery life.
I'm a gamer I use rasbeenjelly rom and motley b31 experimental. I get better battery life and performance than stock rom.

I would try all the roms in the world. But i don't know a quick and effecitive way to back up all my apps. I used titanium backup ut many apps just weren't compatitible with the new custom rom. Tips?

Really? I've flashed dozens of ROMs between my Galaxy Nexus and N4, and have always used TiBu Pro without fail to quickly restore my apps. (then again, all my apps are from the Play store).
My favorite rom lately has been codefireXsr5
with Motley b31 kernel. Alternatively, Liquidsmooth 3.2 with Trinity 91g

Slimbean (stable, no bugs) and Harsh kernel (smoothest kernel I've tried so far and good battery life)

That's what I'm running right now! :good:
The reason I recc'd SR5 was because I found it faster than SR6. Heck, with Matr1x 5.5ocgpu487 (which itself is marginally faster than Matr1x6), I was scoring just over 20000 on AnTuTu with SR5.
I just benched SR7.2 with Motley b31oc1678, gave a pretty nice AnTuTu score of 20900, which is the same as what SR5 gave. So I'd give a thumbs up to this combo -- it also feels as good as SR5! (Running Trinity 91L at 1728 oc'd would undoubtedly bump that above 21000, but I couldn't tell the difference between running Trinity at 1728 and Motley at 1678 in daily use)
Do have to say that Rasbean Jelly and Trinity 91L was blinding fast, very noticeable in regular use; totally supports the >23000 AnTuTu score. (But I can't tell that big a difference between that combo and Liquidsmooth 3.2, which is unsupported by its 19000 benchmark. Yet another reason why I feel benchmarks are somewhat worthless when compared between entirely different ROMs)
It's all really subjective; objective tests like benchmarks are so confounded that only data mongers like me bother to use them :silly:
With Motleys I get 16000 at 1024
19500 at 1242 but then the increase is negligible. 22500 at 1642 for me.
I have been runing at 1024 and every game is perfect. Undervolted to 650 at 1024
