I don't see much of a performance improvement (I don't think there should be one, either), though if you do wipes anyway you're going to avoid a lot of slowdowns.
Shame about the new boot animation, though. I kinda dug the colorfulness of the last one. This is a little too bluish, wooshy, scifi looking, like a wonky portal effect from 10 years ago. Reminds me of the unfortunate tastes that gave the mod community a few too many Matrix themes.

You can change the boot animation back to the old one if you want to. The new alpha-5 boot animation caused me to have a seizure so I found the bootanimation.zip file and replaced the new one with the old one lol
Just get the bootanimation.zip file from one of the previous versions of CM9 (/system/media) and replace.

Is the audio bug still present? The one that requires the screen selection sounds to be turned off in order to minimize the AudioOut_1 wakelock? Haven't seen it mentioned since the early alpha builds.

It's crazy what these guys have done.. I don't know if I could even replace my Epic 4G with anything that's out right now.. We have the only qwerty device on Android 4 on the planet.. ICS, Wimax, and an Overclocked hummingbird makes this phone arguably better than the Droid 4..
I don't know if it's just happening to me, but my phone's time is all over the place. The lock screen stays perfect, but the status bar one stays stuck & I have a widget that lags even longer!

Alpha 1 felt slow and chunky to me, with the exception being the browser. May give a5 a shot since the ram settings got tweaked in a4.
If the app switcher still takes >2sec to open it will be a no go.

Is there any way to get rid of this option????it accidently get pressed then i have to waste 10 seconds.its frustrating......i am on stock rom 4.0.3
Slow down !
This is Samsung. You can customize the button or remove it.
Go to Display in your settings. Under "quick launch" you will find a few cool options. Including disable. That will remove it entirely.

Just rename in system/app the P5_ScreenCapture.apk (Mount R/W) . That will leave the icon, but accidently taking pictures will be something of the past.
As far as I know in Touchwizz there isn't yet any solution for the system bar.

Oh OK! I first came into this thread thinking of how you were going to throw it, or attach some wings to it and have it glide, or something like that! ^.^
Good tips! I have already disabled the S Voice launcher because I hardly use Google Now! Why would I use S Voice? The animations sounds like a good idea, it'll make it feel a lot snappier as it won't waste time with trans, and save battery life in the act as it won't have to cycle the CPU for those animations (very minimal, but still a plus).

Yeah... I don't really think we need more tweaking xD It's damn fast also when really stressed.
For example some days ago, It happened that I needed GPS navigation (with copilot) ... for mistake I launched Need For Speed MW ... and soon after Copilot...
Everything was happening smooth .. I got position etc... xD then I killed NFS , and I continued to use copilot... but the beast had everything under control and it was snappy
Upadating something soon
just made prerooted and flashed..............
One change in gallery
-if we open picture from file explorer with gallery, it shows previews of other pictures in same folder at bottom.
- now charging currant is 1700, before update was 1800 so may be tweaked? Or coincidence in my case
- after using 24 hrs almost, i can say battery management improved.
- wifi issue reported solved (reported by @ yahyoh).
Edit : Mod available based on this ROM
Transparent Status bar + Grey text + Grey circle battery + Grey 3D toggle icons + Call Recording

Run an aosp/cm/aokp for now and the lag will be gone. Or you can run a rebloated touvhwiz ROM. Or run a custom kernel and overclock. Or just get a different phone if it bugs you that much.

My suggestion is to upgrade to MDL (if you haven't already) and flash a custom TW kernel. This makes a world of difference over stock for smoothness and battery life is still great (depending on the kernel settings used). Other thing you can try is lowering the animation scale in developer options.

In About Phone tap your build number 7 times to unlock dev options. Then hit the back button tap dev options and scroll down, if you don't want any animations just turn the three off.

It personally sickens me that we have to do anything to this phone to get it to work well for us. Samsung needs to fix these issues and make this phone fly like it should with the hardware in it. No changing developer options or using a custom kernel or tweaking.

Very much agreed. i personally have minimal lag....there obviously should be none. Hopefully when the next update finally drops the lag will be taken care of.
I had the same issue but once I rooted, removed bloat, disabled some apps and installed a custom kernel all the lag is gone. I'm running No Frills CPU to control the CPU and I have it set at Max 1998GHz, Min 378MHz, Governor= Performance, I/O scheduler= deadline. Not having any issues with battery either. Works Great!
Also I noticed that S Voice was never mentioned. You have to uninstall it or make it so the home button doesn't activate it.
I'm running ktoonz 7/2 kernel with all his settings. Wow it gets rid of all the lag. Plus the phone don't run so hot like it does stock. Nice and cool and fast. I get 24-30+ hours before battery swap. I was also very pissed that out of the box this phone is kind of ****ty. Thanks to our great devs its fixed
