Maybe it's my imagination but I run pretty much every rom with leankernel with the powerhal fix and almost always get results like this. And I've flashed them all.

It's the powerhal zip file that allows 1.5ghz. Its right there in the leankernel thread.

I just noticed at goo.im that Orca is showing as a "trending ROM". Now if Drew would build for the i717 quincyatt........everything would be perfect.

I'm very tempted to try this rom but I'm on PA and can't see an outstanding difference between the two to make me jump ship (so to speak) Any features I'm missing to help make this decision?

Speed, smoothness and speed.

Rock-steady and great performance, and it works with USB audio using Lean Kernel.

Either that or motley. I always have great results with lean kernel.

Just flashed this onto my N7 and the only issue I have is that I can't add or remove anything from my home screen. Anytime I long press onto an icon to either add or remove to my home screen it rotates the screen for a moment, then reorients itself, but I can't pick up any icons to move them. It's doing this on both the stock launcher and Nova Prime so I assume its a setting or a bug with the ROM. Can anyone direct me to what I need to change?

Works just fine on mine. I'm using Nova launcher and stock rom.

I would reflash and make sure you are using the correct gapps.

very smooth and stable rom thanks! I have 2 questions.

When I resize my navigation bar from 48p (default) to 42p in normal and landscape. The notifications icons appear lower in the bar at the buttom not in the middle like the clock etc. How can this be changed?

And I find a bit of a battery drain. Dont know if it is the rom or kernel. I tried many kernels. Using the newest motley now. With trickster mod ive change to max 2 cpu cores. But still a lot of drain. No noticable apps running in the background. Does someone have the same with this rom?

Thanks

I've noticed the resizing nav bar in tab ui thing as well. don't think it can be changed, just a minor issue for now.

another thing I've noticed, when you are in expanded desktop mode, the lockscreen had a bar along the bottom (where the nav bar would normally be) that is slightly brighter than the rest of the screen. this was an issue on the mako build as well until the last few nightlies. not sure what got changed to fix it, but maybe that will happen here as well.

otherwise, great work. love having all the options, and it's super smooth.

I must say this ROM deserves more positive press. I have tried pretty much all the ROMs and everything just works, smooth and fast. In fact I keep trying to put another ROM on my N7 and after a few hours seem to just go back to flashing the nandroid of this one. Thanks and nice work.
