Gaming problems, lag, low fps v20A - LG Optimus 4X HD

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

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand another bad gaming experience thread, lol
well, does it at least run likme mine ?? (i mean gta vc)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnsIMd2gyxo
VC runs smooth with few fps drops.... totally playable...and im on ICS.
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?

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 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...

at least our GPU better than lg optimus L7 and another MSM 7227-A devices, LOL
I dont think so. Andreno 200+ is better than SGX530.
I have now Huawei Ascend G300 as my second phone and i must say that andreno 200+ kicked my OB's ass.

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.

Well I just downgraded to v10d and found a massive improvement in gaming, no impact on battery in my case either. Stay where you are, the overheating and battery fixes (which make no difference from what I've found) make games run like crap in v10f & v10h, nova 3 stuttered and Spiderman was unplayable. Now I've downgraded using gamebooster ultra mode I get virtually no lag in either of these games or the dark knight, note I did have to use Spiderman v1.0.8, latest 1.1.7 is still quite laggy because of extra effects

Nice to know, i'll follow your advice and stay in v10d since a good gaming experience is important for me :good:
I also have occasional lags in dark knight, most of all the first time you play the game (nothing that make the game unplayable) but after that the game plays really good although i've read that some people can be very picky about it but it doesn't bother me at all.
Haven't tried Spiderman or Nova 3 but i'm going to try v1.0.8.
Dead Trigger and Shadowgun plays great, no problems at all with those games.

I also have occasional lags in dark knight, most of all the first time you play the game (nothing that make the game unplayable) but after that the game plays really good although i've read that some people can be very picky about it but it doesn't bother me at all.
Haven't tried Spiderman or Nova 3 but i'm going to try v1.0.8.
Dead Trigger and Shadowgun plays great, no problems at all with those games.

Well of course! After more testing i find some games are worse, for example the dark knight. v10D had fastest gaming for me becauseit had less aggressive overheating and battery control

Real Racing 3

Hi guys
Did you tried Real racing 3?
the game obviously lags on the 4x . unfortunetly, no developer cares about the 4X, and i think we are gonna have big trouble with future games too. Its the same with the other games; only one core always active, from 700 (??) to 1500Mhz... a shame. One X does lag like the 4X as i've seen at youtube
AW: Real Racing 3
Yes I tried it and - wow, lags like hell!

Yes it also lagged for me really bad, and I was kind a sad from it, cause this was the game I was looking for. But after a small search here on the forums I managed to solve it somehow and make it playeble check this link and the first post on this page:

You can change graphic settings, which is set to high on our phone. I changed it to low and it playes perfect Yes sure its not that pretty but its playeble. goog luck

theres a solution. It works perfectly fine for me now. If you have a rooted phone, tweak with the cpu speed and governors. The game works perfectly fine after that. However, the phone heats up and battery drains quickly.

Doing this and changing the governor to performance makes the game much smoother.
Try LG Gearbox. Set "Active Cores" to 1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1854008
It will run without any lags but with low graphic details (which can not be noticed really)
Be aware that, setting active cores other than 4 with LG Gearbox, sometimes makes your phone freeze or restart.

this method worked fine for me. Originaly, the game setups our device on high or mid. I changed to low and now its not lagging and the graphics are still cool.
I didn't change any detail settings.I used No frill cpu to set the cpu to performance and the game runs fine.
I also tried "No frills cpu" with the "performance" option and saw that the game can be played without any problems.

After exiting the game i set the governor to conservative.I launched the game without changing it at all , In some scenes some lag is noticable but not in game.Playing is also fine.
To be honest, I'm sick of this crap. Most Wanted lags, games designed for Tegra 3 lags (Oh yeah, I have Tegra 3 inside, as you might know), Vice City is not even accessible for normal users of 4X HD and now Real Racing 3 lags also. I will throw this piece of crap away and will buy next Samsung or Google flagship this year. I'm also upset with nVidia. I'm happy my laptop is running by AMD stuff. How you can work with bunch of noobs (question for nVidia) in mobile devices area?
And, of course, brilliant 2012 summer flagship without Jelly Bean. Why HTC One X have this? Same ****ing summer flagship. Jesus Christ.
Great...Now that your are offtopic ,go get your self a samsumg , where lag is a part of their whole UI...

I can understand your disapointment, since this is a high end device.
But lets hope JB improves somethng, and remember that HOX and Nexus 7 also have issues with game performance.

Nexus and HOX are running jb so you thinking it can change something in our phone?

yes but i doesnt mean games will be better on JB. the new kernel might improve performance, bujt far away from making it a super phone.
AW: Real Racing 3
Changed Graphic Settings and it's really good! No more lags!
The game just isn't fully optimized for tegra3.
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda premium
1x1.5GHz or 4x1.4GHz
you have to be aware that the tegra 3 will give the 1.5GHz only for 1 core, the max CPU speed for 4 cores is 1.4GHz.
so if a game is optimized for 4 cores, it will run much faster on 1.4GHz.
you should keep that in mind when you lock the CPU speed at 1,5GHz
lg have always this problem great hardware fail performance

Gaming and Early Jelly Bean Testers

Hi guys,
I don't have time really to read how to install leaked JB and I will wait for OTA, so I will be straight: how about gaming?
I have latest ICS V10H and I have facing problems in Most Wanted, GTA III, Vice City and Real Racing 3 (laggg). Maybe these problems are not so annoying in JB? Maybe you use JB and some apps to walk-around lags without losing graphics like in Real Racing 3 or Most Wanted?
Thanks
I use rooted v20a with ultra mode in gamebooster from google play, most games that were laggy on stock are playable with this setup, even nova 3 only lags a little

I played it and it was so so, all in all playable, but didn't check graphics level, now since I was reflashing this pre-beta JB I must download data again and will report back with more details.
EDIT: Downloaded data again...can't see level of graphics toggle??? Fame rate is cca. 25fps...
p.s. when there in no thermal protection activated cca <46 C° GPU performance is better cca. 5-10%...but that last only few minutes until thermal protection enables and ruins it

Yup, best performance is 10d, but when this crap is sorted on JB it has few advantages up in it's sleeve

I bought this phone for gaming, so until someone figures how to make tegra behave the same as in 10d im out, as jb isnt too far behind 10d i think with the same setup games would fly!

Yes it was smooth on JB then i remembered it lagged on ICS and was worried because i downgraded, but new version works good! Still has the accelerometer bug though, havng to use touch steering wheel. Hopefully they follow suit with other games, sick of murdering my battery with gamebooster to play nova 3 and still have slight lags :banghead:

On v10d with gamebooster set to ultra only dead trigger, nova 3 and spiderman lag for me, and only spiderman is frequent, others are just little stutters here and there. Most wanted only lags when race starts. I believe this is.because 10d has no thermal protection but i have only slight temp increase and very little impact on battery
EDIT: i see now in /d folder there is thermal protection but parameters are not as restrictive
