[Q] ROM Performance?

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.

FPS will be higher but ram will hang phone.

Why does this happen?

No matter what ROM I use, and I have literally tried hundreds, there is always memory management issues and major lagging in games such as stick cricket, fruit ninja and temple run.
Why does this always happen? Is there any ROM out there that doesn't kill apps after a short while or lag in games?

Well try Gamerz rom since its not only good for gaming ,its stable and has good battery life too

How is your gaming performance?

As the title says.
Im on cm7 and even simple games like temple run and cartoon quality games lag for me.
Im really not sure how to get some decent gaming performance!

I have tried this 10000 times. When im on gingerbread and run big games like mwc3 or shadowgun, it lags very much. I need nvidia plugin to run them smooth. On ics, it's like havin a sgs3

You need nvidia plugin? Is that something I can download from the play store, or is it chainfire?

It's CHAINFIRE FIRST INSTALL THE APP then search for nvidia pulgins in my opinion try an ICS rom like cm9 or slim ICS so you can play all your favourite games freely without lagging

I quite agree with this topic: I'm currently running stock 2.3.6 XXJVU ROM with CF-Root kernel, so no optimization on the part of the CPU. Games such as Contract Killer Zombies start to lag when too many enemies are displayed at the same time...
I'm thinking of upgrading to the ICS TiramiSlim RC2, I read and also got feedback from a friend, and it's one of the most efficient ICS ROMs so far...

cm9 nightly ... more than excellent

Why would ics improve gaming?

None of the GB roms, including cm7, use HW acceleration?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA

seriously
gaming in ics is better now
try slimics or sgs333 or cm9 . gaming is just smouth

I have used Slim ICS, and as stated above, it works very nicely.
Gamerzrom v11 (GB) also works very well. Temple Run goes smoothly on that rom if you wanna stay on GB.

Nope. HW acceleration didn't start until ICS.

Aways Xylon ROM has great performance and customizability. Its well worth a look but unfortunately aways has discontinued ROM development.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

C-Rom Mix by Aways is great take a look!
I had a lot of Problems with other Roms but this one got me hooked. Great Atutu benchmarks etc.

Im running helly bean and I can say it's the fastest rom I ever flashed, it's smooooth as hell
also I o.c my phone to 1320 mhz with 408 mb of ram, it's stable and running games without lagging . you should try it
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

If you want a ROM that run Games smooth, i recommand you to take a look at the "CyanAOSP".
I already tested some roms and i really like CyanAOSP, soo smooth and verry good for Gaming.
Tested on: Asphalt 7 , Real Fotbal 2013, Gangstar City, Subway Surfers, Temple Run, Asphalt 6, Earn to Die, Drag Racing, Need For Speed HP, Fifa 12 , Sky Safari and many others, No lag. and get 4400+ on Antutu.

All jb ROMs are smooth;specifically AWAYS ROMs.
