for me gingerbread it's best

Re: Jellybean vs Gingerbread

GB is an old story. My preferences - I don't want to live in the past. I am running BB8 - 4.2.2 with stock kernel oc to 1200 and it is liquid smooth. So I have no reason to look back.

Sent from my Nexus S

I would totally use GB but without Gmail nor some apps I really need: no way!

GB is more RAM friendly for older devices, and the batteri seames about @-3 hours better, but with the way that develpoment is for Nexus S, the new features, it's clear that newer is better!

Just use ICS, you can still use your apps and the performance is a lot better than JB.

Performance? It's about 3x more laggy than JB. But can give 2x better battery life. That's why google developed project butter, because ICS was just so laggy and stuttery.

Last night, I finally ended up flashing the CM10 ROM + Marmite 7.3, installed Greenify and my Nexus S has NEVER been as much responsive (with a 4.x ROM)!
I can easily have 5 to 10 apps open and not a lag...

Really good job!

Thanks everybody for the advices.

Well, my experience is clearly different. I'm running Cyanogenmod 9.1 btw.

My Nexus S is running smoother when playing games, compared to stock 4.1

Well sure CM9 eaven beyng ICS is smoother than stock JellyBean, it is hevily optimised, Have you at least tryed a deodex stock, or It was a hurd on google imadge..the comparison between stock and CM is not completly fair, try CM 10 stable (not 10.1) and you will see a slight emprovement over CM9, the battery is a tad worse but pleace do not listen to all those who state ICS is smoother, it's just a placebo effect, try CM10 stable without dirtiflashing and then you will see

i posted on another thread, i tried a lot of 4.x roms and cant seem to get those 60fps animations(jelly bean animations). They work sometimes, but many times i get microlag/stutter and i just cant figure out why. The only rom that improves this is latest helly bean with oc@1200. Do you guys get 60fps animations all the time?(for example, opening the mms app)
