Best Rom for 3d Gaming or Gaming period.

Just as the title says im looking for the best rom for gaming on the g1 3d and 2d. i used my g1 as a spare so that i dont kill my daily phone playing games. all opinions and responses are appreciated thank you

SuperD without the RAM hack or Enomther's

From my experience rom does not make that much of a difference, but the kernel does. Whenever I want to play a game, I use this:
-CM based 2.6.34 kernel with BFS
-Cyanogen 5.0.8 test4
-No sound
-All tasks killed before the game starts (by menu-> applications->running processes)
-Overclocked at 691 min/max (Universal overclock, and always plugged in)
I've also heard that HTC 1.5 roms are very good but I am more then happy with with the frame rates I get on RT2. The above set up get 30.2 FPS on neocore. I need to try some froyo gaming to see if the official git helps it some (its supposed to help with big applications like browser so I'm assuming it will help with 3D performance too). I've found that you can overclock higher/stable-er when plugged in then on battery alone.

[Q] Dungeon Defenders performance

Dear Developers,
I am not much into mobile gaming, but I wanted to play a bit with Dungeon Defenders. I've installed the game, downloaded the content form the developers site, installed the game on the internal SD.
Unfortunately, the performance of the game is much lower than I expected on a TEGRA dual core device. The FPS is low, down to unplayable with multiple units at the dungeon.
Is there any solution for that? I have stock ROM, stock applications plus a few utilities (JuceDefender etc.) installed plus maybe 6 widgets.
Changing ROM is not an option for me as it voids warranty with my damn Polish LG branch :/
Help is very appreciated

Check if there are multiple other games running in the background like the pre instaled Shrek Karting and Spiderman games.
Kill the tasks or reboot and try again. I never played Dungeon Defenders much, but for the time I played it on the stock ROM it was absolutely smooth.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
End all tasks using your task manager and then launch the game again, if for some reason the performance doesnt improve much then lower the video enhancement in the settings and that should make it run very smothly.
Overclocking to play this game helps alot too but it causes it to get hot like above 43c which isnt good.

Yes, the performance of this particular game on the O2X is embarrassing when you get to bigger maps such as the Ramparts. If you aren't playing it online, turning on flight mode will help a bit.

[Q]Plants vs Zombies - ROM

Hi
i have a question im want to play plants vs zombies and other good games on android - Xperia X8 but i didn't figure out which rom is the best i wanted a rom with bravia hack[yes i know its pretty much nothing but i like to have it] and xLoud but cant find good right now im on LinuXperia Escha Arch 3.5 it is pretty good but i have major difficulities trying to play PVZ the thing is it's starts but very randomly[not all the time quite often it just crashes at loading] and when it starts i cant write my nickname in game and without you cant play and why i cant write my name? becuse keyboard just dont shows up so i tried others keyboards and none of them worked
So my question is on which gingerbread rom with bravia hack and xloud[and there need to be dsp manager becuse without it i cant use playerpro] i will be able to play Plants vs Zombies
and Yes im using chainfire 3D with powervr plugin

GingerCruzt maybe? It has both xLoud and Bravia engine. Try it and check does PvZ work.

i tried and it doesnt even start to load crash after pop cap logo

on a froyo rom this game works, not on cm7..cm6 have more compatibility with apps

This game crash because we have low RAM.
This can be solved by using Chainfire especially in Android 2.2.
For Android 2.3, you must use a ROM which is very lite and have much free RAM to play it, and the result is not very good and will cause random pop out in the loading or during the game. A temporary solution is restart the phone and play the game with "fresh" condition.
For Android 2.3, the best solution is use a custom kernel which is support SWAP, create a swap file/partition which is minimum 96mb, then you can play the game without any problem.

PvZ also crash before I enable swap on my phone, and now it works even without chainfire
If you don't want swap, you can:
either write your nick in messaging for example, copy it and paste in PvZ, this will allow you to create profile without popping out the keyboard
or use a froyo rom as suggested

ok so my question is which froyo rom is the best is it froyopro?
update
tried froyopro still crashes before loading

Try minicm6, I am using it and it is very fast and smooth for gaming...

i'll tell you mate i tried most of roms on our forum pvz is always going to crash if free ram isnt enough the only way is swap.
well i have a class 2 sdcard so swap isnt going to be usefull i guess so i always restart my phone use a task killer and enjoy the game
u have to face the fact that we've got low ram
cheers

i tried MINICM6 it is really fast i can get by just killing app in GO launcher EX like a ~95 MB of ram but Plants vs Zombies still dont work
OMG why tell me why on minicm7 and nAa kernel STILL dont work there need to be other way for this freaking game

for play this game you need a froyo rom ( for me for games minicm 6 it's better or froyobread 12, i never test froyo pro)
you need chainfire pro, and plugins. you need instal a plugin like powervr.. i see somewhere that you need nvidia plugin but i think that with powervr it works too.
this game only works on a froyo rom and you need chainfire pro and plugins test and you see

i know that you need a chainfire i wrote that but anyway somehow i make game to work it probably has something to do with cyanogenmod performance settings and game started
MINICM7 with nAa i could probably get this game to work with froyo but it's good rom and ginger so im stick to it

I played PVZ with chainfire without plugin, and it should not needed plugin neither.
That was chainfire 1.8?(i forget), and Floyo 2.0
But still, very recommended to unlock bootloader and flash custom kernel.

plants vs zombies on my phone gingerdx
working way 1
install chainfire3d and enable 16bit
( no plugins ) (some lag if more zombies are coming and eat your brain )
or
working way 2
use swap ,
you do not need install chainfire3d (no lags )
you can use keyboard here

[Q] Noticeable lag when playing games

I have a nook color running phiremod 7.2
I have noticed a lag while playing games like Angry Birds. Angry bird space is unplayable it lags so much.
Is there a setting I should change? CPU speed? Or do I need to change ROMS?
Thanks
Ryan

I would start by updating to cyanogenmod 7.2 stable. How old is the ROM you are using right now? Sometimes its best to do a data and a cache wipe once and awhile just in case you corrupted your kernel base through updates. You will need to do this if you want to go from CM7 to CM9.
You can do this with the options in ROM manager along with clockworkmod. A nandroid backup first is recommended.
I use the built in overclocking with these cyanogenmod builds, I got mine overclocked to 1200 mhz. Any higher and you start running into problems with stability. I use the "on demand' governor within those options.
I have had no lag whatsoever on my nook playing all of the angrybirds apps. Might want to add a speed script you can find here after you update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508481
The only time I notice any lag is through the Opera browser I am using when trying to watch HD video on youtube, I just chalk that up to the processor bogging down.

Test the ram if this is an issue, by killing with task manager all that is running, before you start the game.
It's not right to use task manager like this, but at least you could check if this is the trouble maker.
Unleashed from my Revolutionized Desire HD

I checked the ram ant it was not the issue. Iended up installing cm7.2 and everything is working much faster and smoother
Thanks for the help!

[Q] Problem with playing games

Hi guys,
I have a Nook HD+ running 4.3 stable. I've downloaded the Flappy Bird game (latest version) and it runs slow as hell. I compare it to my iphone 4 and my friend's galaxy tab 3. Both of them run very smoothly. Is there something wrong with the game or the Nook? Is it the GPU or the screen resolution?. I used to have the same problem with Candy Crush, but when I unchecked the Disable HW overlays in Developer options. It's much better. But it isn't the same in Flappy Bird. Do you guys have a solution for this? Thank you very much!

Possibly over simplification of game's graphic settings. Games should scale for various gpu's but if the user has no way to do so some devices will have bad fps.
Sometimes as in the case of hw overlays the few android options work but otherwise the chance should be greater that it needs to be fixed by the developer.
Some games allow setting tweaking in a roundabout way and sometimes there are apps that make it easier.
Not to mention any other problems....

Weird.
The HD+, despite it's processor struggling to power its REALLY REALLY high res screen, is still really strong. So it's strange that the device can't play Flappy Bird. I'd understand if you tried High graphics on Asphalt 8, but.
Maybe try verygreen's EMMC CM11?
