Hmmm the Xperia is identical to GS+ apart from a slower clocked CPU, it just goes to show the software that samsung have stuck on this phone is dog**** and slow.
You could try the better GPU drivers for our phone have a look here.

we are stuck with it until Samsung start supporting our device more, the cheaper Galaxy W is getting all the support it needs i knew i should of bought that one instead.
1st: next time post such stuff in the Q&A thread
2nd: the first thing i noticed, other than that the whole stock software is crappy, is that RAM performance is not well customized, try using the supercharger script and set the minfrees for 512mb RAM, i think ur problem lies there.. i use the stock rom with stock kernel, i free ram with the stock task manager before launching it and GTA3 runs just fine

Oh Man :/ I really miss my iPhone 3GS.. It was really smooth without any scripts, roms, mods...
My SGS+ is running 1.8 ghz , but still laggy, low fps on games compared to iphone 3gs..

the hardware on the S+ is really great for a single core phone, but the software sucks, if we had a lil more developing in our section we would've had the real deal , even though there are a few custom roms out there. my friend who owns an iphone 4 always repeats the fact that he doesn't need to do anything additional to his phone and that "it just works", and we have to accept that fact, even though, with the right software we can get a better product than the iphone 4

if Apple makes a better product then we gotta admit it and give them the credits for that. there is no need for any Android vs iphone mood. Competition is healthy, it can only make our phones better.

1. This discussion belongs in the general discussion thread not in the development section.
2. Unless you intend starting a flame war I would suggest that singing the praises of a certain fruit associated manufacturer in an Android forum is not a great plan.
3. If you want to compare phones then make sure they are in the same price class. So if your going to match Android against the fruit munger phone then you need to compare with the galaxy nexus or galaxy s ii.

Im playing the game right now and it runs smooth, you cant even see framedrops.
this game was made for the 9001, i only heard of people having problems with the normal galaxy. maybe you need to get your phone fixed or clear up some ram, because what you're saying is simply not true.

AFAIK GTA3 is supposed to run on devices with a dual-core processor (iPhone 4S, SGS2, Sensation etc).
I guess it's not a marketing trick (like it was in case of most "tegra only" games) and the game really needs 2 cores for runing fine and smooth.
Anyway, i dont think we lost something big
Its working perfectly on my Sensation, brilliant gameplay and smooth frame rates...
Meh I'm gonna wait for some Vice City before putting GTA on any if my phones. After Vice City was released, I can't even play GTA III anymore...

Negative effect?!? ...hahaha...it's made for improve the performance of games then is impossible that has negative effects on galaxy mini, however yes it's safe, i have chainfire3D and works perfect but there only one thing to know and remember before to install chainfire3D: on froyo works only the version 2.8 for drivers incompatibility reasons, instead on gingerbread works also the last version 3.3.

Dude,
Really?
C'mon read chainfire's thread, he has explained everything that a beginner needs to know.
Lazy? Then don't use it.
Scared? Be petrified.
Using a warez? Of course it wont work the way it should and u will not even notice it. Then why use it?
Don't.

If u had actually read it, u'll have an idea of how it works and what it does.
So is it safe? Figure it out yourself.

Is obvious that decrease the graphics quality for improve the performance and i think that all know this, but you can choose if decrease little or much, for example if a game lag a little you can decrease a little the graphics quality so works better.

cheers mate.
but I was thinking of something like tweaks or adreno libs or some sort of script or hardware acceleration or kernel stuff or... not chainfire or oc (overclocked to 980mhz, well it did make stuff a bit smoother but I can't keep it that high, phone will simply melt down, why should we even have to overclock, that just shows the weakness of the OS, 800mhz should be enough to process simple 2d stuff )
Something that could actually make a difference, I'm starting to get fed up with android, my ace originally runs at 800mhz but an iPhone 3gs runs at 600mhz and it doesn't lag as much (in fact it doesn't lag at all, it has less ram than ace)
thanks anyway
Find this line in build.prop

And change it to

already done that, dunno may be it makes things a bit smoother but I didn't notice it so much. thank you very much anyway

well, here's my opinion about "our-mighty" lag problem.
1. android bellow 3.0(1.5 - 2.3.7) is not using hardware to render UI, it use software rendering instead, so this explain why iPhone 3G(128MB ram, 434Mhz ArmV6, PowerVR MBX<==same GPU as nokia N95) UI scrolling is waaayyy smoother than SGA. even galaxy note is doesnt as smooth as iPhone 3g.(stock GB firmware)
2. android 3.0 & 4.0 is render UI with GPU, BUT some kind of thread-that-response-for touch is not on the TOP PRIORITY, this explain why ICS is lag...specially for our device, and ICS from maclaw is still have some graphical glitches.
3. wanna smooth UI?? try JB alpha.....i think there is no solution for LAG, at least at the moment......

Hi guys, I got NfsMW working on our HD2's. It's not laggy but the problem is that after about 2 minutes, it just exits. What's the problem? Ram? I think that android turns on it's ****ty apps(for eg. Play store) to "update" them, and then they take too much of ram..
I'd like to see your answers, thanks. Maybe chainfire can solve the problem? Or we should KILL everything with ram manager?
Edit: Forgot to mention, I'm running Aokp jellybean build 3 from xylo on nand.

The new NFS: MW? I highly doubt that works without lag, I've seen the graphics and they're quite heavy for a mobile game. No single core, 404Mb RAM (in Android) phone could run it smoothly. Even Temple Run has a poor framerate. If you mean the old NFS: MW then that runs perfectly for me without lag, and it doesn't close after a while either.

Well, it's not without lag, but it's really playable, I firstly thought that it won't even run. I'll make a short video tommorow if you want. I've found out that I can play it with the ram manager setted to hard gaming.

NFS MW is working on HD2 without any problem! The game is really good. You can watch a short movie from the game, just search on youtube: NFS MW HTC HD2
I play this game on paranoidandroid without overclocking. Only thing you must do is to change build.prop file.
Sorry for my eanglish
I certainly wouldn't say without any problems. The game runs at half the speed it should! Even then, I'm impressed at how smooth it is since it's running on such old hardware.

Do you have a problem like me: You're racing and suddenly the game crashes because of GPU, RAM?
If you don't, how did you fixed it? I tried with that ram manager pro setted to hard gaming but I don't think it's due RAM.
When installed chainfire3d, it crashed my phone so I had to reflash my rom(stupid man forgot to backup current).

If you have the softbuttons activated, it won't download because of that.
I'll upload apk to dropbox and send you a pm.
And yes, problem was rom, not the game. We have strong enough gpu and enough ram to run it. I'm playing on paranoid 1.5b without problems.

I managed to run it smoothly without those effects with normally downloaded data for Desire HD. However, after 2 weeks, the effects for POWERVR devices (better textures, lightning effects etc) activated, so it lagged horribly.
Hello Folks,
I`ve been on an infinite quest for having a lagless/slowness free device since I got it. In the middle of it I found out about the Chainfire 3D that could maybe help, but I also found out it`s quite risky and I haven`t found anyone who has tried it on our device yet.
Do you know of anyone who has entered in this risky path and succeeded?
I actually only want a lagless phone when it comes to gaming. I know that there are many threads about it, but believe me, I`ve read them all and all of them give only advices that helps, but don`t resolve the problem.
Don`t come with the: "the game is not yet optimized for Tegra 3", because in some cases like Shadowgun THD, the game lags anyway.
My 4X HD out of the box was terrible in gaming. Now with 10E, root access and governor/clock manipulation it's got much better, but STILL lags once in a while playing simple games like Jetpack Joyride or even Angry Birds! And LOTS of problems if you scale up to heavy games! That`s very frustrating!! :crying:
Do you guys have any formula or a way you`ve found to play games well?? If you do, please help! I`ve heard about the new updates but some people said it doesn`t really matter so, I`d rather wait for an update in my country.
Thank you!! and sorry if this is not the right place for it and for the long post!
In most phones it improves it. Not sure in the 4x because I didn't try it yet. Don't feel the desire on bricking my phone im case it won't work.

Good point, I played Shadowgun THD on Galaxy 2 and it rocks (gpu OC to 400mhz).
Thing that should help us is update o CPU-GPU governor and latest GPU drivers. Let´s hope they will come with JB or after unloced bootloader we will have great custom kernel...
I've installed on my O4X, the app Chainfire.the extra drivers. It works fine and I didn't have any weird crashes, hang-ups nor restarts. I didn't notice any improvements however.
The advice I have to offer, is to get an app like SetCPU, create a profile that will launch when you play a game, and set the governor to performance mode and lock the highest frequencies, from 1.2 to 1.5 GHz. Then it will run great. At least it does on me. From the games I've played so far, including Galaxy on Fire 2 THD, History Channel's Great Medieval Battles, NFS Most Wanted, Angry Birds Star Wars HD, Zombie Driver THD, RiptideGp, Beat Hazard Ultra, Canabalt HD,Dragon Slayer, when I start them with this profile, I don't get any lags. Remember also, that a game needs RAM memory to run fluidly. Run a utility to clear on RAM before starting a gaming session (just like a computer), or go to developper options and limit the number of background processes.
That's what I told someone too. 1500 MHz performance when playing games and then there is no issue.

than I have a problem, cuz I set the governor to performance - min 1500 and it reduces lag A LOT, but not all the time. I cut the ram use too.
What update are you using? Or maybe I`m missing something...
Are you sure chainfire didn`t change anything? I think I`ll give it a try!
Thanks for you help!! :cyclops:

Let me see if I understand...
You set the governor to 1500 min. and you CUT the RAM???
What improvement are you trying to do?

There was a little misunderstanding here. I tried to mean I FREE some ram!
I used Chainfire on ICS with no problem, yet there was no improvements in gaming.
Tried to use it on JB V20A and it bricked my phone! Nothing a reflash couldn`t fix it, but if you`re on JB, don`t try it.

A very soft brick... Advanced restore of system in CWM Recovery should help. If there is a proper backup...
Chainfire is not compatible with any JB ROM, in fact officially it doesn't even support ICS. Wish he would update it, the msaa settings were great!
