[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

how did you manage to install and run Asphalt 6?

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...

It runs fine with 1,2GHz overclock. And OB works with this clock just fine. Eternity warriors 2 works ok. Aralon little lags. Didn't check other big 3d games.

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.

[Q] problems in some games :(

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

You got it from the market? If you have downloaded it from another place can you send me the link to try it pls? I don't know if you are allowed to post that link here so you may have to send me a pm.. But i'm not sure... Anyway i appreciate your reply.. Now i know that the games nust run well on the note

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

ShadowGun and the games he has problems with is compatible with Mali-400.

If you're playing pirated games, don't be surprised if they don't work. Simple.

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...

NeedForSpeed MostWanted works

Hi guys, I got NfsMW working on our HD2's. It's not laggy but the problem is that after about 2 minutes, it just exits. What's the problem? Ram? I think that android turns on it's ****ty apps(for eg. Play store) to "update" them, and then they take too much of ram..
I'd like to see your answers, thanks. Maybe chainfire can solve the problem? Or we should KILL everything with ram manager?
Edit: Forgot to mention, I'm running Aokp jellybean build 3 from xylo on nand.

The new NFS: MW? I highly doubt that works without lag, I've seen the graphics and they're quite heavy for a mobile game. No single core, 404Mb RAM (in Android) phone could run it smoothly. Even Temple Run has a poor framerate. If you mean the old NFS: MW then that runs perfectly for me without lag, and it doesn't close after a while either.

Well, it's not without lag, but it's really playable, I firstly thought that it won't even run. I'll make a short video tommorow if you want. I've found out that I can play it with the ram manager setted to hard gaming.
Yes, it's the new one. HD2 is never going to die.

Haha I'm sad to say that the HD2 will eventually die, but probably not this year. Don't bother making a video for me mate, but thanks for the offer

Dude DO NOT post shareware stuff on this forum. Read the rules before posting such stuff.

NFS MW is working on HD2
NFS MW is working on HD2 without any problem! The game is really good. You can watch a short movie from the game, just search on youtube: NFS MW HTC HD2
I play this game on paranoidandroid without overclocking. Only thing you must do is to change build.prop file.
Sorry for my eanglish

I certainly wouldn't say without any problems. The game runs at half the speed it should! Even then, I'm impressed at how smooth it is since it's running on such old hardware.

I'm impressed too. That good game on this phone, it's a miracle
Do you have a problem like me: You're racing and suddenly the game crashes because of GPU, RAM?
If you don't, how did you fixed it? I tried with that ram manager pro setted to hard gaming but I don't think it's due RAM.
When installed chainfire3d, it crashed my phone so I had to reflash my rom(stupid man forgot to backup current).

Hi there, I got a question! Where I can find the right NFS:MW for the HTC HD2? I got the game but when I try to download the files which he need I got the windows where they saing "The Device is not Compatible"
Some tip?

If you have the softbuttons activated, it won't download because of that.
I'll upload apk to dropbox and send you a pm.
And yes, problem was rom, not the game. We have strong enough gpu and enough ram to run it. I'm playing on paranoid 1.5b without problems.

It's bad it doesn't have those "lightning effects" etc. But i think it would be slower with this turned on.

Devs will probably make some patches with light effects that will work on every device that can run the game(eg. like Dead Trigger..).

It plays on the Hd2... But then there is a lot of difference running it on my note 2 and Asus tf300

I managed to run it smoothly without those effects with normally downloaded data for Desire HD. However, after 2 weeks, the effects for POWERVR devices (better textures, lightning effects etc) activated, so it lagged horribly.

Sony Xperia Z2 Gaming Thread

Here is my video showing Xperia Z2's performance in games. How has your experience been so far?

Did you root? Just wondering if the free games and PlayStation store still work after rooting.

Unfortunately I have the same problems with spider-man 2, it looks really interesting and I hope they fix it in near future.
other game performance is really good :good:

Really enjoying Colin McRae Rally (search Google play store) it runs fantastically well, but one thing I noticed was at the start it states "Your device isn't supported" warning.. Weird.
Another tip for gaming, if you haven't already enable developer options (by tapping firmware version 7 times) and then in dev options enable "force anti-aliasing x 4" as it makes the graphics in games made using open GL 2.0 look awesome.

They have fixed it in the latest version, I had same issues in first version where it would crash as soon as you tapped jump, noticed that the newer apk file you download from Gameloft is 27-28mb, the first release was 14-15mb
Was playing it last night for over 30 mins with no crashes at all.

Any ideas how to make fifa 14 full screen?
I see many game producers optimizing their games for new xperia devices. But fifa 14 ain't so does anyone know how to make fifa 14 go full screen?

Gaming Laggg

hi all
i have the mi mix for more than 6 now and from the beginning i feel like it lags smoetimes
when i play [world war heroes] it lags a lot specially when i chose high graphics i mean its lags like hell
like i have 1 frame per 10 second. i tried every method i can found here in xda or in the net such as utube
like disable MIUI Optimization Memory Optimization: off , low,mid or high
i even used other roms like dev rom and i also tried Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 [7.1.2]
its hard to believe that the 6gigs of ram or the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821
cant handle games not to mention that world war heroes size is less than 500mb total
or is it real that the mi mix is a peace of crap and its performance cant handle gamig?
is there any way on earth i can play this game without lagging ?
if there is any way to help please please share
thanx
