i only bought the lg 2x for 3 weeks, and this is sad to watch.
However, i don't see the point of the gpu being such powerful, since android does not have any thing to push the gpu at all besides benchmark. This is a good way to make myself feel better.
I would like to know is there difference between Tegra 2 cpu vs Exynos cpu at all?? besides Exynos gpu being so much more powerful than Tegra 2?
Thanks

oh thats just terrible
Now my O2x are completely useless - it will just stop functioning im sure
No wait - thats not right - whats happening, it still works ? My games still play, I can still read the news, I can still do all the things I did yesterday.
It's just a benchmark - does it really matter that much ?
Those are just numbers in my opinion.

I might have wrong, but that benchmark is made for mobile gpus and tegra 2 is not like normal mobile gpus it's more like a desktop gpu. A eight core gpu can't be beaten by a quad core or?
Tegra is our one, probably futile, hope of future proofing our phones.

Don't expect Tegra to lead benchmarks for a while until mobile graphics are more geared towards immediate mode rendering (Stuff more like PC graphics.). Everyone else uses Tile-based rendering. I believe NVidia did this to avoid changing the rendering (which changes the drivers even more and etc) once they reach "console-level" graphics. The Tegra 2 will excel in a few things. Don't expect it to be the best performer for now. Expect it to be a capable one.
Don't forget. SGS II is capped to 60fps and we won't know what it's truly capable of
I've seen several gaming videos and the tegra walks all over the Orion. I do agree that push for tegras are the last hope for a unified gaming platform and I think it will work. Nvidia has this backed and will see it through.
i am really sick of the fact every android phone has its own different games on each platform. same game cant be run on different android phones. this is stupid.
its one of the reasons i like Nvidia. they are trying to do something good here for once. you see all those samsung galaxy S2 hardware. but where all the games ? those same games i can play on nexus S. with good frames too. however with nvidia and tegra 2, the users are getting exclusive games that can take advantage of the hardware. thats nice for a change.
let the galaxy S2 owners have fun with there powerful phone on paper. at the end of the day. the Tegra 2 owners are the people who are getting the best looking games.
i am not saying i hate S2. because i will buy it as soon as i can. i love super amoled and the techs for the phone. but if i want a pure gaming phone. tegra 2 wins hands down. not because its the most powerful. but because there are exclusive games that take advantage of that GPU.

No their not, they're taking games already under development which Android users were going to see anyway regardless of nvidia's involvement and paying the developers off to make them exclusive titles, this is a bad thing as most Android users will lose out because of it.

this video shows at how the flash player performance is on web browsing watching a video and at this point watching an anime on both phones
so you can see that samsung galaxy with exynos and with 1.2ghz against lg2x nvidia tegra2 with 1ghz and lg optimus 2x seems for me faster for playing videos at this ..!i wanna only know if lg use stock 2.2.2 at this video against samsung galaxy s2 2.3.3 stock
lets compare those two videos and see that there are no differences between samsung s 2 and lg2x
and again dont forget...lg 2x has stock 2.2.2 rom
samsung galaxy s 2 has gingerbread 2.3.3 wich supposed to be faster..
think that when lg 2x will get official ginger 2.3.4 at this summer

True, and Nvidia is causing fragmentation by using their own compression formats. Afaik Mali supports the one and only standard format, but that don't help much when Nvidia is paying off devs to use their proprietary stuff. Yeah not very techical i know, but check out the SGS2 thread for more info.

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

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

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.

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...

Im running Cm7 with Chainfire3d installed. It is on Glitch's kernel at 1.2 GHz. it runs well. Im already up to the 2nd island!
First of all i'd like to say hello to everyone here
Now, i'll share with you my problem and hope thats somebody here knows what's the problem.. Well i installed some games in my note (n7000, the european version) then, some of them don't work properly the graphics look pretty bad or i got some parts of te screen in black and i'm worried that this could be some problems with the graphics chip... Althogh the menu of the game works properly. This happends with games like nfs hot pursuit or shadow guardian but other games like dead space which also has great graphics works excellent.
The phone is new, i bought it yesterday xD so if is there any problem with the hardware ill get it back. Thanks for reading and every little help is appreciated
I'll upload now some screen captures as i don't see how to do it from here xD
Moved To Q&A
Please post all questions in the Q&A section
looks like a major hardware issue to me.
I would update the software to the latest available (OTA / Kies). If the problem remains, send it back for a replacement.
it says i already have the latest firmware... anyway i'm doing a back up so ill restore it after that and we will see then if the problem persists...
I just did a quick check in The Market, and it shows that NFS Hot Pursuit isn't compatible with the Note. Shadow Guardian dosen't show as being available for the Note on the Gameloft site either (unless I'm missing something as I've not bought from Gameloft).
oh i was wrong it's not called shadow guardian is shadowgun XD anyway this fors example says that it is compatible with the note but doesn't work properly neither... in the asphald 6 that i downloaded when i use the nitrous boost appears some stripes but in the one downloaded in the samsung apps seems to work good but has no sound and i think it has lower quality... you may be right and to be just a problem of compatibility... so to be sure if somebody can install the same game as i installed, i'll give the link.. to tell me if it's working fine or his phone or not would be great... thanks for reading and replying to everybody and sorry for my bad english
Shadowgun is working for me

Today at school i talket with a classmate that owns an sgs 2 and he told me that sometimes that happens in his phone too so there os no problem with the hardware it's just the game not fully compatible or something like that... I guess the thread can be closed now, thanks to everybody for the help

I feel bad about my Note in regards of gaming. My Atrix 4G have much better graphics at least on those optimized for nVidia Tegra. ShadowGun for example, on the Atrix I can see the much better shader effects like fog, dust particles, explosions, shadows and glare. The Note simply don't show any of these effects. It looks flat and lacking :-(

That's up to the developers of Shadowgun, not the Note hardware. Apparently nvidia has bribed them to only support tegra. The Note GPU is better so there's no technical reason for those effects to not work.

I have also noticed that most of the games that have good graphics are usually optimized for for the tegra devices, anyway comparing the graphics between my note playing dead space and the ps vita with the unchertd i think there is not a huge difference...
Hi guys. I bought NFS: Most Wanted recently and I'm impressed. Graphics on Tegra 3 is very good, soundtrack also good, even car can be controlled well. In any case, I have problem - game lagging heavily some times. Did you guys experienced the same with Optimus 4X HD?
This game isn't optimised for Tegra 3 devices at all, so the gameloft games aren't neither.
Pfff i bought a Tegra 3 for games and finally it's the worst processor for games...
There is already a thread here for this - and it is in the correct section.

I love nVidia, I love nVidia Tegra (I will probably buy device with Tegra 4), but game developers sucks, really. Mine Optimus 4X HD have Tegra 3, but ShadowGun THD (for Tegra 3!) laging. Nice.
..so.. anyone tried just turning off two of the four cores? I'm pretty sure the prime candidate for the problem is dynamic thread-allocation that happens to not have pre-determined run-time graphs.

Rather than just wildly trying to guess - which is never a good thing - why not cough up £1.99 and install Perfmon from the Play Store, then run the CPU monitor overlay and you will see EXACTLY what your 4X is doing while the game is playing.
So recently, a pretty good deal approached me where I have a chance to sell my 4X HD and buy a nexus 4 for a reasonable amonth of money. I was pretty disappointed from the performance in games, camera quality and sound so this deal came in handy, but now when the leaked jelly bean update has been showing pretty good improvements in all ways I dont want to regret selling this phone. As I didnt even hold the nexus 4, just saw a ton of reviews, I'm asking for some advice if I should stick with the phone or change it, from some experienced users.
Do you guys think that the new update will bring much better performance and overall make it on par with the nexus 4?? What advantages would I get getting the nexus 4 in this case ( battery, screen, etc)
Thanks..
Battery is somewhat improved but still not amazing, games also improved a little, shadowgun thd for example now doesnt lag at all. Im curious to see how development goes with the unlocked bootloader, but if someone gave me a nexus 4 to swap i would. The question is how much money will you lose, and is it worth it? Personally ive always wanted a nexus phone for googles support but wouldnt pay the prices

Nexus 4. Better specs, overwhelming support. The 4X will never catch up to the better specs of the N4. Software can only help up to a point, then hardware wins out.

BTW What about the battery lifon on nexus 4. I've red a lot of pages on the nexus threads and it seems that majority is reporting not a good battery life at all, so are the reviews i've seen. But some say that it can last for 2 days with no problem.. I was pretty satisfied with the baterry life on 4x HD as after root and freezing some aps I could do 2 days no with no problem, and ti should be even bettter with jelly bean. Hope the nexus 4 wont last mi for 8 HOUrs or so as I'm used to 2 days

Is it really possible to get 3.4 kernel unless nvidia releases sources? I doubt it since Nexus 7 running tegra 3 has only 3.1.10, I would too love to see 3.4 kernel on o4x.

You are delusional, it lags a lot on any cpu governor, even more we dont have custom kernel (read custom cpu - gpu scaling).
At this time LG 4X is not even close to LG NEXUS 4, maybe it will never be...so 4X is a LG - NVIDIA collaboration failure.

I think its devs fault, some games are perfectly smooth! Shadowgun thd that lagged on ics works great on jb. The problem is devs arent making their games use multiple cores yet they are putting them on high graphics, causing lags. Whats strange is if you look at tegra phones on nvidia site the optimus 4x isnt listed. Something about LG power management must make it hard to allow multithreading in games compared to.the one x

when comparing the nexus 4 to the p880, nobody mentioned that the p880 has 16gig and must be compared to the more expensive nexus 4, and furthermore has a micro sd card slot.
do you think its fun to have 3 games like gta vc, nfs mw and horn on the device and BAM! the memory is completely full?
not having an sd card is a complete no-go for me, and after i got rid of my iphone i really didnt want to go into such a closed world again.

You should investigate how many hours will it last when gaming, watching movies or internet and then you will know if it really worth the hassle of getting a new phone.
And by the way, if the nexus has no expandable memory then you better be sure you won't need it, i'm not the kind of guy that stores 5 full movies or even 1000 songs but with only 5 or 6 games, a few apps and like 300 songs i already got 8 GB full out of the 12 GB available on my p880.
What i would do is wait until the official release of the JB for my P880, i'm pretty sure they will fix a LOT of things in that version including gaming, internet, apps and they will unlock the BL (just be realistic and don't expect your phone to become ultra mega fast and that the battery will run for 30 days straight without charge)
This Leaked release version of Jelly bean is obviosly incomplete and with several bugs and honestly i think LG leaked this version just to get rid of the people who were trying to hack their site.
Be patient and you'll be fine.
P.S. excuse my broken english, it's not my native language.
