[Q] ROM Performance? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, Do ROM's like CM7 and Darky's ROM etc improve gaming and CPU performance? because im playing Shadow Gun and it's lagging like hell... will installing custom ROM fix this?
P.S sorry for being noob I'm just looking for reasons to flash custom ROM

You won't see a massive difference between ROMs but there is a slight difference. Chainfire from market impacts on performance if used correctly. also I do recommend ICS ROMs. I feel that games run more smoothly on them .

I think that in any ICS ported rom there's a little bit of increase in graphic performance.

Difference in performance is very high to me, but if you want a STABLE ROM I suggest to use Darkyy's one or CM7 stable release...
I'm on ICS by teamhacksung now but I agree with bugs anounced!

If i install darky's rom for example will that stop lag in shadow gun?

I don't now, but I can post my results in Qaudrant and you can see if they are better or not...
I remeber you that I'm on ICS 4.0.3 now, therefore I can only suggest you to give a try to Darkyy's or CM7 and try your game performances...
I only use fruitninja and works like a charm.
If I can help you in flashing other rom just tell me something.

Shadow gun is a very demanding game and the galaxy s has lacking hardware for optimal game play. Software can only do some optimization. You will not get a totally smooth experience with any rom.

Quadrant scores mean absolutely nothing.
For a game like ShadowGun to run as smoothly as possible, I suggest a Froyo ROM and RAM optimization scripts such as ThunderBolt or SuperCharger.

Give up froyo. Go for latest rom and midnight kernel. No ext4! And use agressive lmk settings. And delete all bloatware (you can use my huge list) and use adw launcher with no widgets. Only search and 4 shortcuts. Overclock a little bit. You can't believe your eyes.

Lolz you're sooo wrong. I will put a video for you. It will contain dungeon defenders, shadowgun, blood glory, gta 3, modern combat 3, dungeon hunter 2, nfs shift, asphalt 6 I'm playing all without microlags. Even smoother than most of dual core htc phones. We have a secret weapon that is sgx540 but you must know how to use it

Using your technique described above essentially strips the phone to a minimal and restricts how one would normally go about with an android device. For me that shows sgs lacks hardware for hardcore games.

Let me see this video. I'm calling you out on this, so post a link. I want to see gameplay from ALL of the games you just listed, and if I see absolutely no lag at all then you'd have proved your point. I'm not expecting 60 fps on each of those games, but if you can even achieve 35+ constantly, then it's definitely lag free.

It doesn't, I'm on darky's 10.2.2 now and shadow gun plays smooth as hell, with default it was at like 10fps, now just seems standard 30+fps...

I'd recommend flashing an ICS rom, as the UI is awesome and I also feel like the games/apps run smoother.

Naa, It's only on build #13 at the moment and isn't final release so it won't be super-stable like darky's rom.

[Q] Best gaming rom

Is there any rom which is recommended for 3d gaming ?

The graphics drivers do not really change so it does not matter as long as you are using the latest 2.2 or 2.2.1 roms.

Question anyone feels laggy when running Fruit nija?

Here is the question, i always feel a little bit of laggy when i am running fruit nija the game. I am currently running cognition 4.3 with voodoo lagfix enabled. I overclocked to 1.4g but didn't fix the problem.
I wonder where the lag comes from, cappy has a very powerful gpu as we all know. But seems didn't work out with the little game
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
once in a while it doesnt detect my finger swipe but for the most part, I dont have lag issues on my setup.
Ya I've I noticed the lag before even with oc sometimes. I personally think its an issue with the amount of usable ram the cappy has.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
any idea to fix its?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Usually just killing all your apps and background apps with a taskkiller does the trick and frees up some ram for me anyways
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
yeah it's laggy. I don't find killing programs helps. I always figured it was not optimized on our phones, but the memory explanation makes sense.

I think fruit ninja is smooth...
Just tried it right now (and ended up playing a few times ) on Serendipity 6.3 and it's running perfectly fine.
I just flashed the latest Phoenix ROM(JS8) with the Speedmod k13d Kernel(lagfix on,no overclock) ,I don't know,Ninja becomes smooth
Here is a theory :
Fruit Ninja is optimized for i9000 not for captivate

have you had a chance to run it on the iPhone? It's night and day imo.
and to the above poster- I don't think that can be the case since they're essentially identical inside. I'm not sure if FN is an iOS port over to android but maybe that may be a possible reason.

That's impossible, I don't think it can differenciate since we are running on the same Hummingbird processor.
Moved as not android development
Even when I was just using a modified stock ROM way back in September and Fruit Ninja just came out it sill ran fine for me. The only thing I see go down was the graphic quality (maaaybe).

Gaming performance

Hi all
Recently I was looking at some videos of people playing dungeon hunter 2 on the motorola milestone. One person was using the milestone official 2.2 update and it seems to be blazingly smooth when running dungeon hunter 2. But I'm on froyomod 2.7 and the gameplay isn't smooth. Is this jsut my phone or is it the rom?
Anyone want to help/discuss?

I can do it
Did you tried to do a Overclock? Im using a CM7 with Overclock 1.2GHz and it work fine when i'm gaming.
Weird. I'm playing dungeon hunter 2 using froyomod at 1.1ghz. I have no clue why its lagging

Overclocking definitely helps, but the reason why you are probably lagging is due to memory management. Try supercharging your phone by checking out zeppelinrox's supercharging thread in this subforum.

By SC I'm guessing you mean Supercharging?
Luca made his own kind of memory management but it isn't like zeppelin's.
Yes, supercharging!
I prefer to use the luca's way.

There are a couple of ROMs that do now tho.. HO!NO! cm7 and MIUI by eybee1970
I modified every CM7 ROM, apply gaming script from zeppelirox, and here is list of games that i can play (smooth) on my MS:
1. Mordem combat 2.
2. Shadow guardian.
3. Setler HD.
4. Starfont collision HD.
5. Rise of Ayden HD.
6. Gun bros 1.4
7. Contract killer
(these 2 glu games are too heavy for MS).
8. Grave defense HD.
9. Guerilla bob.
10. Fast5 (but lag, look like play a slideshow ^_^).

That's funny because luca doesn't even like FroyoMod's current memory management -which is merely aggressive minfree levels.

LOL! So, my Milestone can run much faster and much more stable?
Keun when u say u can play those games smoothly what do u mean. Because when I was on cm7 modern combat didn't even start and it did start on iceandfire (no supercharger but I was using amm at the time) but it was laggy and eternal legacy didn't really work properly. Also on froyomod shadow guardian does work but is really choppy at times (about 1-2fps) whereas other times it works at about 30-60fps. And dungeon hunter 2 doesn't get past 20fps.
But all this time I didn't have zepplin's supercharger. I only used auto memory manager

I use CM7 here, yesterday night I've tried all v6 options to no avail, Gun Bros won't go past loading screen few seconds after I choose a mission.... Game Settings, Agressive Settings, Ballanced, none worked (not that I'm fanatic for the game, never played it, just curious as many people mention this game)... Perhaps CM7 uses more memory anyway and there is not enough memory even using Zeppelinrox scripts... ?
Try the iceandfire 2.XX. that rom is working well for me. I had gun bros on my defy. Its not that great to be honest and did get boring damn quick

thats awesome
but frankly MC3 graphics is just outstanding for phones
Hi guys
Well, I though that the marvel v6 rom has a better performance than zeus.
When I flashed zeus, it was extremely slow, I don't know what happened, but with marvel, my OB was fast and pretty. I play games like temple run, mc3, brothers in arms 2, minecraft, nova 2 and counter strike portable just fine. Did you guys play Contract killer zombies? I just loved the game! really really good.
sorry for my bad english
haven't tried these since i lost my memory card
in zeus, when you make oc, all this games working great.
without oc too
maybe in Tantrum's Rom too...i've used it and its pretty fast as well

[Q] [Q&A] CM7 Performance

Why the game "Raging Thunder 2" LAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS on any CM7 roms? It run as smooth as a butter when on stock based rom but LAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS on CM7 roms, why? Or its caused by the smoothness and tweaks on the UI? I'm so sad because all my favourite CM7 roms can't play Raging Thunder 2 as well.... :crying:
Games that will lags on CM7 roms:
1)gta 3
2)dead space
3)temple run
4)NFS SHIFT????!!!!!
5)NFS HP????!!!
6)Raging thunder 2
I tried these game and it lags on our dearest ACE with CM7 but it runs 0% lag if we use 2.3.6 and 4.0 based roms or stock roms...
I only want to ask is this my ACE's fault?
Or it's CM7's Bugs/Mistake?
I might think this is not our phone's problem but the ROMS problem.
If you don't trust me, try it yourself.
Could anybody solve my question/problem?
Because our phone isn't GOOOOOOOOOD from the start so you'll definitely LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGG on most games with it .
