Need For Speed Undercover New version 0.1.53 with g-sensor suport and accelerated!

Need For Speed Undercover seems to be hardware accelerated on my htc diamond. Can anybody confirm this? or is my impression?
see the difference between the graphics of another device and the diamond!

DIAMOND

judging from the quality of the textures i doubt it
don't look very good
looks as if something any pda would run well

hi,
What do you think about this game ? I hesitate to purchase it.
How smooth is the scrolling on the Diamond ?
Is the touchscreen usable ?
thanks,

but look at the difference of the first three images (other devices) between the diamond. In the latter the graphics look better. How do you explain then?

Just tested it, it is definitely accelerated, the graphics are quite good actually, and it is very smooth. Using the udK R3 ROM, it is very smooth.

where do you get all this games, cod2 and undercover??

I have NFS undercover aswell and yes it's definitely hardware accelerated on the Diamond and it runs supersmooth!!
Btw. People reports that this game runs like crap on the Dell Axim X51v with it's 624 MHz Intel XScale CPU

In Need For Speed do you control the car by accelerometer or somehow else?

I just got this game off of the sprint store. It's hardware accelerated alright. It runs at similar graphics and frame rate of a nintendo DS game. It's fun. you control it with on-screen buttons.

I use the hardware buttons in landscape mode for more flexibility (to drift curve and press simultaneously)

Did you see my response to that on the same "place" ot was reported it runs crap on the x51v?

Yup I saw it in the same place 2 guys with x51v's complained about very bad performance...
It's indeed nice that our Diamonds can outperform that 624 Mhz cpu in some games

is that the difference is due to ati_d3dm driver?

I assume without the driver, you would have 1-2 fps in the quality displayed when running accelerated NFS.

Nope, I have completely removed the ati driver a while ago and now have only the htc d3dm driver and it runs extremely great... Also my registry points to the htc driver so I guess it ain't that bad after all...

I also have this game and it works really well. The on screen keys work well for this game also. Definitely worth getting.

That's what you get when you code to a specific architecture rather than to standards. Making corporations to even _try_ to follow that standards is an even more dantic task, so i find your bashing of the axim *g* very annoying. remember, Stuntcar Extreme which is fluid on the axim, runs at 3 frames per second on the diamond. see what i mean?

Am I the only one that can smell the bullshot. Aftet all the rumours, I thoght I'd take the plunge. Initial impressions eere that I must've got a QVGA software accelerated version. Turns out that all the screenshots corroborate the bs attempt by EA. EA has basically started a contract with MS to provide ots games for the WM platform (wonder if Apple needed a contract with EA.) but basically EA has spat in MS' face. Just look at what the game is like accelrrated on the iPhail on youtube... and cry.

how do you guys play this game? is there a way to activate an on-screen controller? i keep pressing the other keys (home, call, end, back) while trying to press left and right...

Smartbench 2011 - multi-thread enabled!

Hi guys,
I'm not sure if any of you are aware, but I've developed Smartbench 2010 couple of months back for Android phones. But just like most other apps available today, version 2010 does not properly handle multiple cores. I am currently working on Smartbench 2011 which will handle multi-core processors by natively using 4 threads for CPU-related tests (hence the app is really quad-core ready).
Now given that Optimus 2X is the first dual-core phone to hit the market, I'm curious if 2011 works as expected, and also if Optimus 2X is properly configured to use the two cores.
I'd appreciate if anyone here could install and run this app and report the two scores - productivity and games. Smartbench 2011 will auto-submit all test run scores, so you will see a rapid increase in number of results you can compare against, once released to the general public.
Remember, this is a beta version (labeled v0.1) and you won't find it in the market place yet. As was the case with 2010, this one will also be available for free eventually.
Here's the link:

Thanks much!
EDIT: Smartbench 2011 v0.7 has been released. It will now allow you to sort results by either Average, Productivity or Games scores. Please re-install this version.
EDIT2: Smartbench 2011 v0.8 has been released. It now offers a filtering option - you can see all results or just stock clock speed results. Mandelbrot test also has been extended for better precision. Again, please re-install this version.
EDIT3: I have just published Smartbench v1.0 in the Android Market - please install this version moving forward. Results submitted by the BETA version will no longer be stored in the server DB. Your support during the BETA period has been very helpful!

Hi-
I own the Korean version of the Optimus 2x (su660) which has been rooted. I ran the bench and submitted the scores....the games/productivity scores were around 1300/2000

Thank you, I can see them.
I can also see which apps don't behave well with multiple cores right now - I need to further optimize them. It appears that 'Pi' actually executes amost 3 times faster on 2X than it does on HTC G2! But Mandelbrot does no where near as well, which implies there are some artificial bottlenecks within my Mandelbrot code. I need to experiment further into this.
Thanks everyone who submitted the scores - they were very helpful.

Hi again,
I've made several modifications to the original code. I hope the artificial bottleneck that existed in the Mandelbrot test that caused low scores on 2X is now resolved. Also, I've completely removed the File IO tests mainly because I noticed that 2X produces especially inconsistent results. Samsung Galaxy S also had similar issues so I might as well not use it. I've also added new test which basically deals with large string data and also performs some regular expressions on them.
For those who are interested, please install and run the app. It will automatically submit the results to the server, and the result chart will automatically display them.
Thanks again!

Dl'ed the new version and ran it again. Scores similar to the Atrix scores. Not exactly sure what they mean, but hopefully it helps

Should be similar to Atrix since both are Tegra 2 based.
You have two scores in Smartbench - Productivity and Games Indexes. Productivity Index is more relevant for people who use any apps that do not use the GPU, while Games Index is more relevant if you are interested in GPU accelerated apps such as 3D games.
Thanks for the feedback.

Smartbench 2011 v0.7 has been released. It will now allow you to sort results by either Average, Productivity or Games scores. Please re-install this version.

HTC Magic
I tried it on my HTC Magic to see what sort of a differance it would give on a crap phone versus a high-end one. Results were, well, horrible
Productivity: 100 something
Games: 200 something

Not surprised.

Just ran this on my Dell Streak 7, clocked at 1.6ghz and scored 4096 games, 2900 productivity

On my rooted o2x (su660) has 1.4ghz oc kernel and GB stock rom,
It scored 3594 productivity , 3357 games.

I get nothing but adverts PILE OF CRAP

My bench

My Z3+ gets very,very hot

hey guys today I bought Z3+ and got very dissapointed : its gets hot very fast so frequency drops to minimal and heavy games lag a lot,I get around 10 fps in PPSSPP .
In fact I cant use phone at all. Any ideas guys?

Try a repair with PC-Companion.

ok thanks will try that
anyone got same issue? Everyone knows that Z3+ is a hot smartphone but why only my one reduces frequency? or I'm wrongly informed?

still no luck :/

It's Asphalt 8, right? Also post few more information. FW version, thermal screenshot from CPU-Z before you start the game, the same screenshot when it starts to lag & how long it takes to get there.

Use trepn trust it more than cpu-z. Overlays only 4 cores but you can profile general usage to one you get your lag. I just hope that software will eventualy fix this and it ain't a hardware design fault.

This overheating issue is widely known due to the "hardware design", reduction of battery size to make it thinner, waterproofing to reduce any outside particle from affecting inside (and sadly vice versa) and the chip itself. Subsequent software fixes may be used to throttle or limit cpu usage in order to control the heating but at the cost of speed of the device.

Got to Settings > Backup & Restore > Factory Defaults (be sure to mark "wipe internal storage"). After that your battery lasts longer and the overheating is greatly reduced. Data on your SD card is not touched. All data on the internal storage gets removed.

Have you guys seen the way the CPU is working it ain't hardware. You sit at home screen with no running apps and 6 cores are active jumping from Basle line to 1.56 GHz and CPU load goas between 4% to 14 at idle so its CPU management not CPU. The reason they throttled it was to lessen the damage done by heat till the figure how to optimize the governor and thermal management. This is also the reason we don't have 5.1.1 as I think there really trying to fix this. Anyone here have a z2 or Z3 heat was an issue till they patched it. Also 6 cores is sruped to use at idle.

Exactly, the problem with the 800 and 801 vanished after a 2-3 updates that came 2-3 months into the phone's support. We are still in launch phase of the Z3+ in some regions

Just to add in they need to invent a new govener that is tailers to 8 core big little chips

Exactly! Had the Z2 and can fully approve what LMcR92 wrote!

so guys you mean that 810 isnt supported in games?
P.S. resetting with pc companion helped a bit

Everything is supported just not optimized yet so some intence games get hot and laggy. This is why we need Sony's new update or even better a custom from and kernel.

Daily usage and Gaming performance issue (HELP)

Hi. First of all i search all the forum but couldnt find any solution. As i mentioned Daily usage and gaming became a burden for me. Frankly im suprised that choppy behavior. My brother has HTC m8 and we compared both devices and i lost all of the games
with HTC m8 there is no lag in games and scrolling and browsing the internet, but with note 5 gaming and scrolling is a big issue for me and im really dissappointed. Any help appreciated thanks.

Download Game Tuner from Play Store by Samsung and on opening it'll prompt you to download gameservice on galaxy apps!
Choose Custom and configure your games like: Resolution: Low(720p) and fps: 60 and launch your games from the Game Tuner app. Should be better!

Make sure your device is up to date. Try running antutu benchmark and compare your score! Something appears wrong with your device.
Exynos 7420 and its gpu run Real Racing 3 or Dead Effect 2 and other heavy games as smooth as it gets..

Now that's a lot of testing Pretty sure the scores look normal although I don't know the last ones, but you can always compare.
I'm pretty sure it's the games you're playing. They're probably not yet optimized for the Note 5. Ask their developers!
Or I guess your gaming needs are too high for this phone! An iPhone 6S or a Nexus 9 might give you a better gaming experience although the Note 5 is still a fantastic gaming device!

OP5 - Benchmark cheating!

Hi all!
See this news article: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5-benchmark-cheating-reviews/
Long story short - all cores on a test device were bumped to max performance (and stayed there) whenever a benchmark app was run.
This was done by identifying the app name (package name). Very simple and crude implementation.
Graph of performance when running a custom build app with no identifiers:

Same when running standard apps with regular identifiers present (the phone is now cheating):
**** move OnePlus! Still ordered the phone though :fingers-crossed:

Are you sure this is called cheating? It's really the max performance of the phone, and it doesn't overclock itself. And yeah, it's a bad move to identify those apps, but I wouldn't call it cheating.

The article suggests its cheating, thats there wording Personally i partly agree with you though. But locking at max is not every day behaviour

Have OP learned nothing?!

I can care less about the benchmarks. I care about smoothness and ram management. I hope it is better than my Pixel XL. Time will tell.

Agree benchmarks are not important in everyday life, or actually not even when choosing phone.
Sent from my NEM-L21 using XDA Labs

i ordered OP5 right after the launch event.. and i couldnt care less for the benchmark scores..
yet, this is cheating..
i dont think most people want to know how the device performs at its peak before burning itself.. instead actual real-life performance is the focus..
it (the "cheat") gives false impression/expectation on performance to those non-techie people with non-normal/in-lab-only usage pattern..
and if you think this is not cheating, why not apply it to all use cases instead of only target at particular benchmark apps, if its such a wonderful behaviour to have?

Battery Life Only Benchmark that Matters
Since the 801 -- which still speeds along my 1+1 plenty fast for me -- I typically skip all the benchmark scores (boring!) and look for the one thing that matters most to me -- the battery life experienced by the reviewer. And according to ArsTech*, the battery life on the 1+5 is stellar!

Who cares? Does it affect your use of the phone? No. Does it make oneplus look bad? Yes.

Benchmark
Just done a benchmark rated top

Cheating? Is a Volkswagen Diesel inside?
Sorry.. couldn´t resist.

I don't get it, why this is cheating? I want to know what the hardware is capable of. Even if all time max frequency is not daily usable.

Because every other phone doesn't do it so you get a false benchmark score for OP compared to others.

makes sense.
But this phone still showing hardware benchmarking, I mean they don't edit the software to change the numbers.
If other phone makers don't do this, well I understand.
But in theory with a custom kernel, and cpu governer, it's possible to max out the cpu/gpu and using the phone like so. with 30 min of battery...

The cheating is something other phone makers have done before. Samsung did it a few years ago but stopped when they were found out. One Plus have been found out and continued to do it, Google have even called them out on it and told them to stop. They're maxing the CPU to give an inflated benchmark result and make them top of the benchmark scores.

OnePlus is a bunch of developers that got together and made their own phone right? Soooooo is it a surprise they bumped the scores a little? Who freakin cares it's an awesome phone. (I'd prolly not be as pleased if I had the jelly scrolling issue that is "normal"......)

I'll never understand this "cheating" nonsense...benchmarking a computer or any type of technology's CPU/GPU, etc was done to gauge the potential of that hardware. When people go to sites like 3dmark and look at the leader charts, those PCs are overclocked beyond your wildest imagination using things like liquid nitrogen and dry ice...the video cards are striped of their stock coolers and have exotic water cooling blocks installed.....if you simply wanted to benchmark something at it's basic stock speed, the scores would literally be the same across every product using that CPU/GPU...what's the point? OP sets their phone to go to max performance when benchmarking and it's cheating?? Samsung used to get cherry picked Snapdragons in the past that were able to clock higher than the rated spec safely...is that cheating? If OP clocked the Snapdragon 835 higher than it's rated spec out of the box, would that be considered cheating? Are all the millions of enthusiasts who overclock their PCs to achieve the highest possible score in 3dmark also cheating?

All in all, this article tells us about just how good Oneplus 5 optimizations happen to be. When the Cupertino phone company can drive the heck out of optimizations between each of their software & hardware components we should thank that at least there now is an Android phone team that does the same.
Plus the Benchmarks are not there to imitate real life usage, they are there to see how well software and hardware components are intertwined to pull up a Score based on performance. Real life usage can only be perceived by a real life usage and in that department OnePlus 5 is second to None Literally.

Not really. Any phone manufacturer could easily do the same thing here (increase clock speeds when benchmarks are detected). There's nothing really being "optimized" by OnePlus.
