Or have you guys also noticed increased lag and a decrease in performance when flashing to a custom rom? I did the quadrant benchmark on stock rom and on a few custom ones. The stock always scored like 4k higher. I know that doeant mean much but even just the basic performance and game play on the phone with a custom rom is decreased. Maybe its just me? Ive always flashed roms currectly and let them cycle through the battery a few times to settle.

It has very noticeable lag either way. Ended up with one today, was sent the wrong phone as a replacement
quadrant benchmark is a terrible, benchmarks in general are terrible.
Stock rom I usually have no lag unless battery is at 10 percent. Its beeb good to me thus far.

Not as all especially not from a stock touchwiz rom to a cm 10.1 rom, cm 10.1 doesnt benchmark as high, thats just the way that works. The drivers and such dont give it such a high score, but it definitely performs better then stock at most times. unless you're running a nightly which you are. Its kind of buggy at the moment.

These benchmarks are built around the hardware AND software of the flash on the phone. Simply put, they just generate a number based on how well your phone supports the benchmark. AOKP scores like half the points then Stock TW, yet it's significantly faster and more efficient all around the board.
NEVER base your phone on a software benchmark.

Benchmarks aren't testing the hardware directly, they use the software drivers to access the devices. The driver differences between ASOP and Stock TW are pretty substantial. To use those benchmarks to compare the two roms is not accurate by a long shot. If you were comparing CM Build 1 to CM build 4 to CM Build 6, sure, you can use it for a baseline to get a general idea but nothing is better than real world use for testing.

Have you tried the three different kernels? {godmode, tiamat, savaged-zen}
Are you sure that it's overheating? Because random reboots are a standard problem with most if not all ASOP roms. CM7 especially but I also had it with others. You are just using it and BAM spash screen again. I do not think it's heat related though. In all while i love the better battery life and added features, ASOPs have all just been too glitchy for me, especially when it comes to hardware control. No 720p Video recording and a 9 step program to get GPS "fixed"? No thanks.

I don't know what the issue is, I have had no problems with aosp on my EVO... Currently running cm7 with the cm7 kernel and have had no issues, maybe try using SetCPU and setting up some profiles to tweak things.... I know something similar is in the rom but I love SetCPU.... I can't remember my last random reboot and I've been running aosp for months, love the freedom it offers you

Especially when it's true. Random reboots happen all the time in CM7. You can't deny it, because you don't own my phone. I get them constantly. There's still no 720p video recording either, the videos i take look horrible on my 55 inch. And the GPS which has been *fixed* multiple times now STILL isn't working correctly on CM7 for at the very least some of us, myself included. I like CM7 I try it at least once a month hoping they've fixed it. So far they have not so I keep dropping it again.
No overclock at all and yes all kernels do the same once my phone gets to 113*F it reboots anything below that and no reboot found out its due to hboot 2.10

Try a rosie-less Sense rom
I've tried many different asop roms, and even considering VaelPak may be one of my favorite roms ever due to customization and stability, I always run into GPS or some other radio issues. Though lacking customization, even though I feel Sense 3.0 greatly makes up for it, I would recommend the brand new Syngergy-Kingdom 7/12 Nightly(if you could even call it that, because it is the most stable and speedy rom of the series yet). Just make sure to superwipe, then wipe all in wipe list(amon 2.3) and then flash it. Others have reported issues but I believe that is due to not fully wiping their device. Enjoy, it's a really flashy rom with the speed and stability needed to enjoy it. You can choose to have rosie or not, but personally I like no rosie due to it being a resource hog and the LP dock having 5 functions. To include rosie, make sdcard/SynergyRom/Rosie before flash of rom and you're set.
Sorry to bring an old post back to life, but didn't want to start up a new thread for this either. Mods, I can start a new thread if you think that is the best route to go.
I'm having the same issue of my phone appearing to get really hot and then rebooting. This wasn't always the case I know as I remember CM7.0 (not 7.1 or RCx) working without issue. It seems that at some point along the updates to CM, I started developing these overheat/reboot issues. I'm about at the end of my contract, so I don't have to put up with this much longer, but still very annoying. Has anyone tried taking apart their EVO to see if there is something clogging up the internals and contributing to the heat factor? I have considered the idea of just going back to stock/unrooting so I could have Sprint fix/replace the phone, but I hate to go through that hassle if there is some other solution to this problem.
Yeah I've run into these same types of issues pretty much ever time I've tried an AOSP rom. IMO up until recently sbc was the only tempting feature to use AOSP over Sense. Now we have sbc on gingerbread sense. Other than that I've experienced no extra features that were worth the headaches that came along with it. I never experienced stellar battery life with AOSP either, in fact I've had better results overall with good stripped down sense roms.

I've tried ROCKET ROM and it's ok, but I wonder if there is another faster ROM somewhere...
I don't care if is based on GB or ICS and I don't care if your suggestions don't offer all the facilities of the phone, I just want the fastest ROM possible for Note.
I like Midnote ICS.
I'm on Kingdroid Deluxe v 7.0 and it is really quick. I like all the customizations too. It is based off Gingerbread
I'm on AlBa ROM and I hafta see, it does certainly feel and seem faster than GB on CheckROM, even though ICS ROMs are limited to 1.2GHz due to kernel.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Try Imilka CM9-v01 , thats perfect ICS or Cassie's XtraLiteRom Version X LC1 for Gingerbread base rom.
It's hard to say which is the absolute fastest but try Imilka's CM9 or ICS Stunner. Both are super quick. Personally I feel CM9 is quicker of the two, it's lighter as well. Stunner has A LOT of tweaks though! Best ICS ROMs IMO!
ICS roms are the fastest and CM9 and ICS Stunner are the best. Stunner is a slightly quicker I think but CM9 is better overall.
I've tried both CM9 and Stunner extensively, and have found stunner to be the smoothest =). Just remember to use flash fix, and enjoy euphoria!
YMMV though because many people seem to be reporting issues with 4.5, but I'm having zero issues. Love it.
Gb its checkrom. For me its been the fastest. V5.
Gb is cassys xtralite rom
Ics is neobudds stunner

Tried ics stunner and teamrocket. Both are MUCH faster and smoother in every single area. Overall ics just have the slick feel that no any GB can deliver, not even close!!

This is a list I will do further updates on,
currently I tested all Roms with Quadrant and standard installation with minimum apps and freshly tests after installation!
Benchmark used: QUADRANT
Average of several QUADRANT tests taken and combined and put in the list!
Other Roms will be checked in the future of course too
Be patient, the Note is getting hot because of flashing
[Counter above 20? xD]
PS: Pin-Thread maybe?
You DO know that benchmarks are just a bit of pointless epeen waving, and really have bugger all to do with actual device performance, right?

Not fully, you really can distinguish their performance with those benchmarks especially the memory and I/O and 2D.
Each Rom gives you different amount of processes at the beginning with different kernels and their performance. This creates a different kind of system everytime you install another Rom.
As you see I didn´t count nothing about battery life or stability, thats the only penalty with it!

Of course I am not that stupid!
I made 3-5 Tests, deactivated Mobile Data, Sync, Rotation, any processes that can be deactivated on ANY rom, installed ONLY quadrant and killed all processes before using quadrant! Then did multiple tests, MEGA WIPE after any installation of any ROM! No additional apps, except aroma chooseable things!
AGAIN for newbs: The test SHOWS only SPEED/Performance Ability, NOT battery life, NOR stability NOR functionality! Since a LOT of things can be modded directly by the user, its the best thing to know the ROM with best performance to work with. Why? You can analyze the rom's features like kernel, modding, etc.
great job with the list man. I'm quite a fan of hypernote but I'm very surprised it placed last. maybe something important for speed was removed from the hypernote rom that's why?

Good idea nevertheless, although I do prefer the ARHD 5.0 with PERSEUS...now, was it 26 or 26.1?

Obviously you think too complex! Didn´t you read? I used the ROM ITSELF, the ROM's power which comes directly from the developers, such MODS and tweaks which are made by USERS don´t count, when you compare between STOCK ROM with STOCK kernel, you don´t do ANY tweaks with stock ROm to compare them with Custom Roms RIGHT?
It says CUSTOM ROM COMPARE LIST , not USER EDITED LIST with different KERNELS etc. -.-
THATS IT! There are NO big combinations ONLY different versions of the CMs to make it easy! If I would test different KERNELS I would add of course the TITLE (different kernels)
Whats so hard to understand a performance comparison?
I'm running stock ROM, rooted and unlocked bootloader.
I ran antutu and benchmark pi on stock ROM+stock kernel and I got:
Antutu:18096
Benchmark pi:440
I flashed Franco r143 and ran antutu and benchmark pi and got:
Antutu:15526
Benchmark pi:557

benchmarks dont prove anything
I've always found the stock kernel to be smoother. I only use Franco because I get double the battery life out of it.
Benchmarks are just a number. It means nothing when it comes to daily performance.
Franco Kernel is the same as stock kernel in terms of performance, but most likely faster. If its not faster then its something going on with your setup such as: ROM, bad apps, bad configuration when it comes to settings [did you try clearing app cache for franco kernel updater etc]
Why does gs4/htc-one get higher benchmark scores? Because they are faster.
OP you are probably getting lower benchmarks because the kernels governors are set frugally to save battery.

And yet I have yet to see my N4 lag whilst every video of the S4 I see shows lag at some points and every review I've read confirms random lag. Don't try and defend benchmarks, they mean absolutely nothing.
Properly done benchmarks means whatever it is designed to mean. For example, a super computer benchmarked at 1.4 teraflop makes the designer who developed it to run at 1.4 TF extremely happy.
An apps that spew out a number that is supposed to quantify your phone's quality is bull****.

It's probably because stock kernel is using Ondemand as it's default Governor. Frequencies go on-line more often than Franco's hotplug settings on Interactive.

No, the gs4 and htc-one really are faster as the benchmarks show... Software is a different matter.
Lag is generally caused by governors set to race to idle too aggressively on android. Some launchers cover this up better than others.

Their hardware might be faster but their software is not which completely proves my point that benchmarks are not an accurate reflection of performance. The fact that results vary so much on the same device with different software shows that they aren't a way to measure hardware performance either.
Benchmarks were never meant to be an 'accurate reflection of performance'
Benchmarks are a very accurate reflection of the performance potential and hardware of said device.
Devices with better performance 'potential' and hardware are faster devices, period. Whatever hang ups software is causing has nothing to do with it, and benchmarks are not meaningless.. some people just get the meaning wrong.
Benchmarks are not meaningless, but there is no way to effectively measure benchmarks on a cellphone.

As you can see in the screenshot, my D802 is getting some pretty bad benchmark scores(20k). When I'm lucky I can get up around the 30k mark, then when I'm not so lucky, I fall down to performance lower than the GS4. I know, I know, benchmark scores doors not really matter in real world usage. But when it comes to crunching numbers, I expect the processor to perform its best!
Just some info about my setup:
-D802
-CyanogenMod 10.2 Nov 14 nightly.
-The "Custom G2" kernel by Wootever
-My device is overclocked to 2.5Ghz (saw a little performance increase, BTW this OC was done within the "performance" menu in cm10.2)
-Anything else important?
And just if anyone was wondering, all my scores are better with CM than on the stock LG firmware.
Any magic I can do to bump my bench scores? I have heard some people talking about a hidden dial menu, but I can't seem to access it..
Any help, or just feedback is appreciated!

When I first saw the Chart I thought to myself "CyanogenMod" then I read your post aaaand "CyanogenMod". Most people have been complaining about low bench scores on CM nightlies, some are better than others but Ive read post about people getting in the 17k with CM. Flash the stock Rom then post your scores and see how much that helps the cause.
Edit: Quick note, I dont think I have ever gotten over 23k with CM on this device so I have experienced this as well, not just reading up on it.

The thing is just that i cant stand the look or feel of the stock LG ui. So any other AOSP like rom that is good performing? Also, im not getting that much better scores with the stock rom..

All the AOSP roms that dont have major bugs are all performing very well. They just dont score well, its not at all indicative of the hardware, its the Rom. But if your having very low scores on a stock Rom then you might need to get it replaced. Do you have shots of the stock scores? Also make sure that your not using your phone for about 5 min before benching at all or else you might thermal throttle.
Edit: Make sure your governer is set to ondemand or performance and make sure your at 2.2ghz. Some CM roms stay stuck at 1.7ghz and im not sure if this bug has been fixed yet either.

Thats also what i find kinda weird, CM is way smoother than the stock ROM, but is worse when it comes to crunching numbers.
Any way I can disable the throttling without doing damage to my device?

A bounty for AOKP recently reached its goal and is going to be in development very shortly. Keep your eyes open AOKP Roms usually always bench better than CM. Its a great performance ROM with way more features than CM. Keep an eye on the original android thread. Developers name is rohan.

I have just always preferred the more professional look of CyanogenMods website and other services, and I guess that is what made me think it would be one of the best out there. I will keep an eye on AOKP from now on.

Many manufacturers are known for favoring benchmark apps in their ROMs to achieve better scores. I don't know if this is the case with the G2 but, if it is, then switching to a ROM that doesn't have that (such as CM) would make it appear less powerful on the benchmarks.
