[Q] Gaming - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hi,
So i was thinking about buys a optimus 4x to replace my old android but i would like to know if u guys would recommend this phone for gaming, i want to plug it on an tv via hdmi and use my ps3 controller to play on it when im travelling.
Know that u guys know the purpose of the phone would u recommend it to me ? Or should i look for another one ?
Thx

Game play is pretty smooth for me. But i find battery drains very fast when playing hd games.
Just ordered 1 mhl hdmi cable once i get then i can check and confirm its performance on my 50inch lg tv with my ps3 controller.
Cable is already shipped i should get it by tomorrow.

gaming is quite smooth but not very good. Even few good games are not officially supported, though runs good if you get from an warez site.If you want gameing, go for nexus 4 or optimus g or htc one x+. Good luck.

There is always support issue between known brands like there are many games supports only tegra devices..also for many games (check TegraZone app from playstore) it supports more detailed gaming graphics like Dead Trigger just google and you might get to see..what i am tryimg to say else let me know i'l share youtube link with you
Its not lagy for me but agn may it is for other games i have not tried yet.

I´ve searched some videos on youtube and I saw that is nfs mw and gta vice city have some lag during tha play and that worries me a bit because this is the type of games i would play a lot

If you want to play the games you should buy galaxy s3. 4x is a good phone but games on this phone are lagging. Or my phone is not original 4x xD.

Hmm...i was playing Shadow Gun DeadZone multiplayer game at high detail display without any lag.
But i assume some device might be lagging a bit.
For you i`ll try nfs mw tomorrow n let you know how it performs.

I'am played few games and all wouldn't work well...
For example NFS MW, GTA VC, Beach Buggy Blitz, Zombie Driver THD.

Well-- i think ppl have diffrent thoughts about the gaming Some have lagg and some don't.
The games I play is: GTA:VC, Dead Trigger,Subway Surfers,Temple Run, Zombieville and Sword & Sworcery.
- Dead Trigger: The game is playable.. but it does have some fps drops and lagg.
- GTA:VC 1.0.2: This game is allmost not playable, it does have fps drops,some sound laggs and lagg spikes
- Subway Surfers: The game is playable, but has some lagg.
- Temple Run: This game runs fine
- Sword & Sworcery: No problems here, but then again.. not a demanding game
- Zombieville: No problems here, but then again.. not a demanding game
My phone is stock and not rooted. I tried to root and OC.. but to be honest, it didn't feel like it was doing any good.
My friends HTC One X runs these games with no fps drops or lagg, but his phone has JellyBean (android 4.1).
While this phone has Ice Cream Sandwich (android 4.0).. And there is roumers about a JellyBean update in Q1 2013 (or january).
This might fix these issues
Hope it helped.

I can see laggs in that video, you can play the game.. But the experience isn't that great. Atleast for me that is
Did u play with everything maxed out?
how long did u play the game? Like in sessions ?
Did u check these?
Nexus 4
or
Htc One X
This last one has the same CPU and GPU but runs it a tiny bit better, but there is some lagging there too
But then again.. this should be because of the JellyBean update.

I would say near on useless for gaming, even hill climb racer is laggy,

Hill climbing? Seriously?!

i dont see much difffence from that htc one x video, to my video. it runs a little smoothier may be, but VC is completely playable on my 4X, almost lag free... i playd with maxed out option but resolution on 86% as far as i remeber. i play like 30 minutes ou maybe more with always the same result. The only bad thing is the heat....

Try to put it on max.. Im only playing on 100%-100%-max.. if you put the resolution any lower it looks alittle washed out
30mins isn't that much, try to be on a visit to someone old or someone in your family.. it will suddently be 1-2hours.. And in this time.. believe me.. sound spikes and laggs occour more than it should and yeh.. the heat is alittle unpleasent.
Anyway.. I did say this.. : for some it laggs and for some it dosn't.. it seems like it has some varity..

I tried nfs mw..it run too smooth..but i still havenot tried multiplayer mode will update on tat later. I dont have gta vc i`ll see if i buy 1 i`ll update(its expensive game)
Friends i want to know how ur battery performs specially when playing these games? Mine gets heated(common in almost all devices) and battery drains on per minute basis n its annoying.
Apart from games battery backup is good.

You are the first person who is claiming NFS MW to be smooth:/ You can even see it in that LG optimus 4X HD gaming video.. that it's not smooth! thats for sure
Battery: Normal use.. phones, messaging, some web browsing here and there, music here and there, standby and some wifi.. I can easily have my phone on for 2days
Battery while gaming: It depends rly.. Sometimes it 's 3-4hours but sometimes its like 4-6hours.. rly depends on how demanding the game is.. if you have data/wifi on etc

Yes every game runs smooth. Dead Trigger contract Killer zombie 2 gta 3 modern combat 3 and 4 need fir speed most wanted all run without issue and many more. I set my 4x to 1500 MHz on performance with lowest to 1500 MHz as well with setcpu and i have no issue to play any game I want. And the only time I had lag was when listening to music it jumped like crazy and stuttered but ever since setcpu is installed set to lowest to 100mhz I have no more stutter when listen to music.

Well battery is pretty normal when gaming that it will drop pretty quick. Otherwise I have no issues. Last 16 17 hours on heavy use as long as I don't use cellar data. Wifi seems fine but cellar data is a freaking battery killer.

[Q] Gaming with Optimus Black

I am using a Nokia N8, Symbian doesnt have good games and web browsing is too slow.I want to move Android, saw this phone. I love it. It looks very thin compared to my Nokia N8.
I like playing games on my phone.Could i play HD games (like Miami Vindication, N.o.v.a , SpeedX , Modern Combat) with this phone smoothly ?
(Sorry for my bad english, i always get low marks from English )
Every game I've tryed ran smoothly, there was 1 game that lags a bit though, Aphalt 6. I've tryed Pinball HD, Modern Combat: Sanstorm, Real Football 2011, Angry Birds Rio, Turbofly 3D and Asphalt 5. All of those is very smooth on the Optmus Black, I recommend it

Here is a useful link to free 31 HD Gameloft games,6 GB Torrent file: http://mobileplanet-waryam.blogspot.com/2011/05/31-full-android-hd-gamessdcard-files.html
But it's worth the download, just install the APK and download the game data through Wifi.
Great topics..i would love to see if anyone have a single download link for each of the game stated...
I just bought this phone, it is amazing really fast.
Mostly, it depends on the release of the game... If the game supporting powerVR VGA, it'll usually works on OBlack... sorry for bad english...
All HD games I've tried in this phone runs so good.

...as long as you got the game from the play store, it should run fine but dont expect 3d games to run just like games on the iphone....
from my understanding, if u see certain game on the play store, that usually means that it has been optimized for the phone.....if u dont see it, that just means it wont work on ur phone or if it's an app, it's not allowed in ur country...(pandora is not allowed here in the philippines =/)
anyways, i have an ipod touch for my games and media and i only use my OB to make calls and flash random ROMs XD just sayin'.....
...hope i helped...

Heavy games problem

Hello guys my problem today is heavy games like mass effects and asphalt 6
Problem is my phone runs those games slowly very slowly and I think it should be faster than this but why heavy games are slowly if we compare it with iPhone 4 (has same processor speed)iPhone runs them very fast so should I do something to run them vary fastwithout hangs thnx

Try closing some background apps. Performance also depends on what android version you run (but I don't think you use Froyo, gingerbread is way better )

GPU in Black is not first class. Actually it's rather old and even if CPU speed is the same than in Apple then GPU is much way weaker.
Can I use chainfire???!!!!
chainfire will make only things worse - it will emulate another GPU...
Sorry I mislead you - GPU in IPhone4 is comparable with that in Black - IPhone4S
just crashes Black's...
I don't have those games so I can't check how it run at my config. But Real Racing 2 runs fine on Black.
thats wierd cause, if my mind doesn't trick me, I remember when first using my OB for first time, a year ago or something, it had froyo and asphalt6HD and I spend hours playing it without problem before I even know about this forum...
now with the big wave of new roms, you can play almost anything you want

that is absolutely not true!!!!....the GPU of black is still on par with most mid range droids rolling over adreno 200/205.
and of the Iphone, i feel u r comparing OB with iPhone 4 and not 4S, since they are on par. iPhone 4's GPU is as much powerful as OB's. the optimization is of the light (read "flash" free )OS
my OB plays most games seriously well... i feel it's a seriously well balanced device for the price range.
@hemo ali: try and use a task manager before your game start to clear off and release RAM. and avoid intensive apps like browsing, streaming etc while playing.
or better yet, get zeus/marvel
thnx for advice I hope to use zeus or marvel but my problem is in rtl support
is Zeus or Marvel supports rtl???
also what about graphics can I use chainfire without getting worse graphics??
okay another big problem after installing chainfire drivers And i noticed it goes well
but now another big problem(priority is very high)phone full hangs and stopped 4time/1day And I should release battery then put it again why is it related with chinfire???!!
I use cm7.2 rc3 with heux 4.0 kernerl, with chain fire 3d with smartass2 governer.
I play asphalt6, st iv and ShadowGun.
I dont find any perofrmance issues.
The games some time lag, and I see in CPU spy the CPU is stuck at 300 Mhz, killing the game and relaunching it fixes it. I see in CPU spy that CPU is scalled at 1 Ghz
I use Zeus 6.28n and i play both games + front line commando.. and i have no lag and works fine. i didn't change any frequency.. i use RARELY the memory booster when i switch from game to game..

[Q] Is xperia T good for heavy 3d gaming?

Hi im thinking of buying a nice phone for playing games is xperia t right thing. How are games like modern combat 4 , nfs most wanted, spiderman, dark knight rises running on this device . Plz give a quick response
Out of the box, it works OK until it gets hot. There have been numerous threads about thermal throttling kicking in after a while and killing performance - do a search rather than creating an 'urgent' new thread next time.
Having said that, if you are prepared to root then this thread may keep your performance up:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1937329
This phone gets HOT when playing games? i thought its 28nm cpu will stay cool. Should i buy xperia T or should i buy htc one XL for gaming
by the way i researched alot and could not find a similar threat.
Most new phones have some sort of heat issue and thermal throttling. I would recommend trying the games on the handsets to see exactly what you feel about it.
Sent from my Xperia T using Tapatalk 2
I am running now at 192 - 1458MHz, both cores always on, when the heat is going over about 65°C, CPU is throttled to 1188MHz (and less), still with both cores on. When I am gaming a little longer, CPU temperature is going up to 75°C and battery temperature does not exceed 50°C while connected to wall charger.
All games I know are running smoothly this way.
These temperatures should be fine. If anything goes wrong with these temperatures, then it's a bad device.
Thing that is low on T, is RAM. I would recommend something with 2GB. I believe there will be games with 2GB requirement soon. And T has only 640MB available RAM for applications. And system is using about 300 - 400MB. The rest of RAM is low even for browser and low for future gaming, at least now in ICS.
And internal memory chip has not very good performance. For example SenseMe Slideshow (plastic frames) never makes smooth slideshow. Opening phone or SMS app takes almost 2 seconds. Opening NFS Most Wanted takes about 15 seconds (and this procedure kills all opened apps, very nice. Etc.
I am not telling it's a bad device, I like it (except wifi, that one drives me mad. But I recommend something else for heavy gaming.

Out of curiosity, ¿what rom/kernel combo are you using?. I'm interested in undervolting and underclocking my device.
I used Siyah kernel while I was on Timin8r's stock rom, but now I'm running AOKP and I don't know any current kernel compatible with that.
Siah kernel, but works on stock kernel too (except 192MHz). Values are changed manually.
i have already ordered the Xperia T But hope that it will not dissapoint me Devices with 2GB are out of my reach and in my country i found xperia T the fastest in my current budget
You won't be disappointed. It is good device. But has some disadvantages. Just like other devices.

Gameloft have started adding graphics setting to their games which is a good move, so I imagine MC5 will have them. Dunno about dead trigger 2 but they normally optimize their games well. I have a lot of games, they all work fine after reducing the thermal throttling. Only problems you might face is games being unavailable such as a few flu titles, but device spoofing takes care of that. My phone sometimes shuts down from online gaming because the battery can't take the stress, but as long as the throttle allows 12420000 or lower it rarely happens unless battery is low. Plus a friend is trying to make a fix for it, by putting out a voltage based on averages, rather than having a voltage that is too high then it dropping too low under pressure . Also its the same chip as USA version of GS3

Dead Trigger 1 plays smooth on my Cortex A5 800Mhz and Adreno 200. :\ Few lags here and there but nothing noticeable... I think this will handle Dead Trigger 2... Subway Surfers lags like hell though.
How about N.O.V.A 3 and MC4? I just worry about constant non-playable frame rates. I can't judge by YouTube. Do you get smooth experience with Adreno 225?

Gaming problems, lag, low fps v20A

Hello,
I've just got a LG 4X so I'm new on this forum, but it's not my first day on XDA I had an Xperia S before which has worse performance without a doubt.
After I got the phone I jumped straight to gaming and experienced something not so pleasant... GTA Vice City 1.03 is unplayable, it runs like 10 to 20 fps with jumps to 60, then it lags again, after that I downloaded Real Racing 3 from market, it runs 5 fps at most... I can't play using OpenGL with FPSE ( neither could I with SXS but it had better fps) . Dead Trigger works as it should, but it lags too...
I have rooted v20A, switching governor to performance didn't help at all.
Is everything ok with my phone ? I haven't tried gaming on ICS since I flashed v20A as soon as I got the phone.
Damn, I wanna play this GTA sooo much and I can't, even after reducing all the settings.
Thanks, any help and your experiences appreciated
PS: Sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
It's the same thing with me. A cell phone done for gaming is not good for games at all. This is a big problem with this phone. If I had known this, I wouldn't have buy this phone. Other phones not done for gaming have a better performance. I'm experiencing lag sometimes even with temple run.

My setup is v10d with gamebooster, hard gaming and ram tweaks enabled, most games run well with this setup. Only one I had trouble with is spiderman 1.1.7 so i downgraded to 1.1.4 and now it only stutters occasionally. The problem is the v10h firmware, the heat protection is.too aggressive and kills gaming performance

Realracing 3 lags on ICS, bu some did say it didnt on JB, weird.
Anyway, on ICS i did this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158231&page=7, and the lag is completely gone, and in my opinion graphics are pretty much the same.
Which app do you use to know how many fps your games are running at?

Realracing 3 lags on ICS, bu some did say it didnt on JB, weird.
Anyway, on ICS i did this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158231&page=7, and the lag is completely gone, and in my opinion graphics are pretty much the same.

Damn again, your Vice City runs buttery smooth compared to mine I have very often and major frame drops and stuttering Real racing is 5 fps, I'm trying to lower the graphics settings, will report afterwards. I'm thinking beta of IB has ome bad 3d drivers or something, I'm hoping for custom roms with unlocked bl

Not for me! GTA3, Asphalt, NFS ... they are all unplayable with V10A,B,C,D,E ... Whatever ... GTA3 have really big slowdowns on my o4x, even with v20a. Especially Tegra 3 games lag a lot :/ don't know why ...
on my nexus 7 the games have no lag problems or poor framerate.
i flashed 10 times, i reseted my o4x a couple of times but nothing helps. nearly every game lag like hell.
(sorry for my english) ^^
do you have latest version of the game /s ?
****, i ordered new O4XHD for gaming because of tegra 3 ( and on htc one x games running smoth) and now this bad news... damn it

I also use gamebooster but its only really needed on nova 3 in my case. 20a is worse than 10d. Asphalt had a recent update that fixed lag, so did mc4. Only lags I have is slight stutters in spiderman v1.1.4, NFS (only at race start) and nova 3 on first 2 levels. I have A LOT of games too, they ran crappy on euro10h, a bit better on 20a but euro10d is the best

If i'm honest, LG Are terrible at making their own firmwares for more than capable phones.
As well as the Optimus 4X, i own the 2X. (Which is also laggy on the original firmware)
The 2X, has a huge community with hundreds of custom roms. On these custom roms, the Optimus 2X runs flawlessly. Once we have an unlocked boot loader for our 4X and a bigger custom rom community, i am more than confident to say that the 4X will run incredibly well too!
The 4X has huge potential! just not with LG's builds of android!
We just need to wait! :good:
If GTA and asphault are unplayable for you, than you have a faulty device and you should change it (if you can). I have no problemson w/ those game, only MW, that lags.
same here, every game plays fine except NFS MW laggs ocassionaly
Real racing 3 lags a lot. The same thing with NFS... GTA 3 doesn't run smoothly.

If you mean cool looks ok.
But if you mean temperature cool there are two explanation:
1. You are not relevant as temperature meter, some kind of anomaly.
2.You played in North Pole with heavy coolers surrounding you.
No offence but heavy games heats all mobiles ALL...

[Q] Gaming on xperia z

So I decided to write this post because I've haven't find any helpful posts about it. Sometimes I wanna take full advantage of this quad-core device
and enjoy HD games and when I say that I don't mean on sitting on it for 5hours and expect it to run all the games perfect n smooth but I wonder
why on my device (full stock) in games like gta vice city, gta III, real racing 3 even sometimes asphalt 7 I experience frame issues especially gta
vice city which I expected to run smooth when I lower graphics a bit i get so bad frame drops and the games like n. o. v. a 3 and modern combat
4 run perfectly smooth with decent Fps. So first I thought guess gta isn't maybe well optimized for xperia z but then when I searched over YouTube for some gameplay of same games they ran alot smoother on same stock version of xperia z. So what's the difference I've downloaded all the latest versions of these games restarted phone before running and disabled stamina battery mode but still the same thing. Always the same frame issuses and they are not just a little ones sometimes makes game so un enjoyable and leggy especially gta vice city. So I would appreciate any helpful opinion or advice or am I really starting to regret for getting this phone not just because few games Lagg only on my device
there are many other stuff but I won't write about them in this post ( I am running all the games from internal memory not using SD card yet) So
I wonder do I really need to root my phone and flash it with some light pure preformamce custom room to get decent preformamce of this games?
Thanks for reading and looking forward for some helpful answers thanks.
That highly depends on what apps you have installed into your phone.
Have you test with only the stock rom with default apps ?
Hmm
I consider about factory reset since to be honest most of my internal memory is filled with games I am testing and I have like only 10%free space
even less but I don't think it affects so much of preformamce of games 1gb of free space should be enough I guess as for other apps I don't really have alot of them downloaded most of them came with the phone itself. Since I am not really into all of the custom roms and all that expert I only thought about factory reset and getting decent class sd card but thought since ppl on YouTube used stock room and got smooth let's say decent
Gameplay guess I should too well. I'll wait for some more replies before factory also I am a bit worried bcs I read a post from one guy that there could some software
Problem with the phone on some1 else post that had the same problem with certain games so I am very thankful on fast thankful advices

It's affect the performance of course, also many process may occur if you have a ton of useless app on your phone, seriously 1gb free space? Ridiculous... I can't believe that you need all that space and you play all of your that games all the time.
Well the internal memory is 11,73gb with out sd card I've downloaded few hd games and few casual for testing and maybe putting video of gameplay on yt well yeah and one hd game takes 2gb like nova guess I am going for factory reset and I'll try to download gta only and see how it preforms

The lag in the games what I guess is caused by the underclocking of ur cpu due to the heating and stuff..in my xz,when I start the game everything runs smooth but after an hour or so,when the phone heats up..sometimes I feel a little lag,just a little..I play in a cooler place,the lags reduce a lot..well,every game I've ever played lagged at some point..

Yeah i know and I am fine with 1hour of gaming then make pause and let phone cool out its stasifying thought it's a quad-core device of course
It heats up but at me the game lagged even when phone wasn't hot when I started using it after night charging so I'll make factory reset when I catch some free time to day and start from fresh and will try to leave more free internal memory until I get sd card

ay i finished factory reset and i have installed only gta vice city and it stila laggs
Maybe bcs I havent download it from google store or smthk bcs i dont think its
Software since i can play nova3 and modern combat 4
laggs free or smooth any solution i would rally like to play
Gta vice city with decent fps
I dont think full HD devices are fully compatible with Vice City yet, if you look at the list of supported devices in playstore there aren't any FHD devices. Its upto the game developer to iron out issues with FHD devices.

Why don't you guys undervolt the cpu to help keep the temps under the threshold and avoid throttling?

I don't think the stock kernel supports undervolting and I guess we need some other custom kernel probably like Doomkernel..and for that I need to be bootloader unlocked..I don't wanna lose my warranty yet so soon.. maybe after 6 months or so

Ninja edit:
Oh, yes, unlocked bootloader needed.
Anyhow, unlocking the bootloader doesn't mean voiding your warranty forever. You can lock it again before sending the phone for repairs if it ever needs service.
