Hi,
I'm kind of dissatisfied with the speed of most popular custom roms when it comes to playing games.
Which rom do you use to play games using nes/snes emulators? Hopefully any of the 2.1 roms
Thanks,
Krystian
ps
I know this question falls between roms and games category, but since this is not dev question I decided to put it in here.
I have to agree with you. I use both Snesoid and Gameboid and at regular points games start to slow down.
I think it's a case of having to wait for better versions of the emulators since they're still pretty early in their development.
Either that, or wait until an official 2.1 HTC rom before we expect decent performance.
To be honest with you, I doubt this is emulators fault.
I was able to play with nesoid and play metal slug without any hiccups.
Now few seconds after the mission is on they start.
It definitely is rom "fault". There are speedier and slower roms out there.
Currently I am using Villain Rom 5.1, which seems to be a brilliant rom [it is so fast when it comes to htc sense it's unbelievable] and the slowdowns are far better than in MoDaCo 3.1 [which is great btw], however it still is far from perfect.
I might try to overclock the cpu and see how it goes.
I'm sure I read that overclocking the CPU won't work on the current roms. You can underclock when the screen is turned off for power saving.
However until the official 2.1 rom comes out from HTC we won't be able to overclock over the stock CPU clock.
For 3D games, go Legendroid 1.0.1
In my tests, it blows away any other ROM.
Thanks!

Hello guys..........
I have bought my Tp lately and today I decided to install a version of android on it.after the installation I decided to perform one of my heavy graphical game which name was Real raceing 2 but it performed very laggy. I used to play this game smoothly with a less powefull device like HTC desire HD.how can it be possible.In alpha versions of android for TP the GPU in not fully functional yet?Am I right?
Strange you mention that cuz I was playing cordy which laggs on my desire HD but ran fine in the touchpad.... I've had no lag issues on many games

The question then is "Which version of Android?"
You should try Xron 2.9 de-odexed.
Have you tried to overclock it yet? Maybe you should try to run it at 1.8GHz. And maybe use chainfire to change come of the settings?
thanks for advises.
I installed the latest version of Xron 2.9 de-odexed and overclocked the devise with set cpu to 1.8 the FPS raised a bit but the laggs are still exist especially in opening demo.i also have a bad watching movie experience because of the low FPS during playing back.it seems the software can not take the full advantage of adreno 220 chipset.I dont have any of these issues with the stock webos.
I don't really know if Adreno 220 is slow, or CM7 doesn't release this GPU's full potential, but heavy 3D games are really quite laggy now. We could only wait and hope for ICS, better drivers and whatnot.

It's powerfull gpu, somewehere near tegra2,probably faster but I'm not sure.

try xronified version, it's working much better. Probably still not full potential but heavy games are working fine.
I'm not having any problems....I'm not using xron, I'm using inseason rom (which has been locked)...only lag issues i have are while streaming 1080p videos. Gta 3, real racing, ps4oid all run perfectly fine

Hi,
I used to play Temple Run on boype's CM and the game was smooth, sometimes laggy in the first 2 games but after that it ran smoothly.
Now I'm on Zeus 6.39o and the game lags, not a lot but also not playable for this kind of games.
I wish that everyone post their experience with the game and how to make it smoother if possible.

The game wasn't laggy at all with you? I mean buttery smooth?

Default CPU settings. 300-1000 MHz and no voltage tweak, i mean "0". But at 1350 MHz it launches smoother and faster but not quite different from 1000 mhz.
In mine just first 2-3 sec of first game lags , otherwise its smooth. i am using Stock V20s with diana kernel.
runs perfectly smooth with FOP CM9 Nightly6 without even close the apps in background
i have the latest v20g stock rom on which temple run doesnt lag at all
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...

This game compared with others games,the phone no is a toaster, and have good graphics.
I no have a .apk, to measure the % capacity of the cores.
I tried CM11 nightlys recently and i was impressed with the performence, especially with PPSSPP running much better and with constantly high FPS and speed. Also in GTA San Andreas i was able to run it with much higher visuals while still playing smooth.
However what bothers me about CM is the terrible speaker quality, just exceptable battary life and over all i prefer Sense UI.
So yesterday i flashed the updated version of maximus HD (wich is the best stock rom in my opinion) and yeah, its awesome, i love the UI, normal UI performence and bettary life is great and also the speaker sounds much better. Gaming is not bad, for most games that are not that intensive performence is more then good enough but as soon as it comes to PPSSPP and San Andreas its just not as smooth. I tried to gain better gaming performence by flashing elementalX kernel and clocked the CPU to 1.8 ghz and the GPU to 450 mhz. (I never overclocked anythingh with CM)
And yeah the performence is a tiny bit better but nothing compared to CM.
Why is that the case and and is there any way to either bring gaming performence on stock to a CM level or bring at least improove the speaker quality on CM?
Also can anyone report how google edition 4.4 performs? I never tried is becouse i am still S-ON.
Please share your thoughts
Gaming on GE is way bttr than on sense atleast for me.i had never seen a lag in games like san andreas ,asphalt 8 even in high graphics.
P.s:- why dnt try viper4android for better sound in cm...
