Hi I rooted my z1 yesterday and I downloaded the 'device control' app which allows me to change the cpu speeds. I would like to know what's the fastest I can safely run my device to play games. I would also like to know what will be the best for battery saving
Thanks

Dear Developers,
I am not much into mobile gaming, but I wanted to play a bit with Dungeon Defenders. I've installed the game, downloaded the content form the developers site, installed the game on the internal SD.
Unfortunately, the performance of the game is much lower than I expected on a TEGRA dual core device. The FPS is low, down to unplayable with multiple units at the dungeon.
Is there any solution for that? I have stock ROM, stock applications plus a few utilities (JuceDefender etc.) installed plus maybe 6 widgets.
Changing ROM is not an option for me as it voids warranty with my damn Polish LG branch :/
Help is very appreciated
Check if there are multiple other games running in the background like the pre instaled Shrek Karting and Spiderman games.
Kill the tasks or reboot and try again. I never played Dungeon Defenders much, but for the time I played it on the stock ROM it was absolutely smooth.

End all tasks using your task manager and then launch the game again, if for some reason the performance doesnt improve much then lower the video enhancement in the settings and that should make it run very smothly.
Overclocking to play this game helps alot too but it causes it to get hot like above 43c which isnt good.
Yes, the performance of this particular game on the O2X is embarrassing when you get to bigger maps such as the Ramparts. If you aren't playing it online, turning on flight mode will help a bit.
I'm wondering if how i can set my phone to "game mode".
I observed that when I upgraded from 2.1.6 to 2.1.9 then to 2.2.0, there is caching of program. the caching is not done (I think) in 2.1.6 or lower versions. And does supercharger has something to do with this?
I think caching has something to do with processor performance for games, and it makes games somewhat choppy. What I want to do, is when I start a game, all support and background checking/ precaching services for other apps (even for messaging) is disabled so that the game will have most of the resources. It would be even better if i can set this for individual apps so that only cpu/gpou intensive games will do this. Now, is there anyway to do this?
naahh...there is no such settings for now

From my exp, 2.2.0 is build in great for gaming.Supercharge it not make it better even its has gaming mode.Btw there are some apps called RAM manager, try to set in Hard Gaming mode.Maybe its will boost a little(not 100% sure)
I have a nook color running phiremod 7.2
I have noticed a lag while playing games like Angry Birds. Angry bird space is unplayable it lags so much.
Is there a setting I should change? CPU speed? Or do I need to change ROMS?
Thanks

I would start by updating to cyanogenmod 7.2 stable. How old is the ROM you are using right now? Sometimes its best to do a data and a cache wipe once and awhile just in case you corrupted your kernel base through updates. You will need to do this if you want to go from CM7 to CM9.
You can do this with the options in ROM manager along with clockworkmod. A nandroid backup first is recommended.
I use the built in overclocking with these cyanogenmod builds, I got mine overclocked to 1200 mhz. Any higher and you start running into problems with stability. I use the "on demand' governor within those options.
I have had no lag whatsoever on my nook playing all of the angrybirds apps. Might want to add a speed script you can find here after you update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508481
The only time I notice any lag is through the Opera browser I am using when trying to watch HD video on youtube, I just chalk that up to the processor bogging down.
Test the ram if this is an issue, by killing with task manager all that is running, before you start the game.
It's not right to use task manager like this, but at least you could check if this is the trouble maker.

I checked the ram ant it was not the issue. Iended up installing cm7.2 and everything is working much faster and smoother
Thanks for the help!

Hello. Anyone tried real racing 3? I was expecting a lot more from a quad core + gpu 1.5x speed the Mali. Although installed it shows 'device not supported' in Google play. Maybe it has to do something with this? Any workarounds?
i also use this phone, it can play this game, if we use all core (4 core), the game run so lag but full graphic, if we only use 1 core, game run smooth but low graphic

What about 2-cores? What software are you using to change the core usage?
As always in better games - set governor to performance . Plays quite good
governor=??
Can someone please elaborate?
oh, you need app like SetCpu to do this.

Hey everyone with rooted phones. I'm sure we can use Rom Toolbox or other apps to mess with our gpu or cpu settings.
I'm having stuttering issues with any streaming media whether it's in the native youtube app or just a video link in a website that open up in the stock player.
I was wondering if any settings for the CPU or gpu can possibly affect or improve the ability to stream smoothly? If anyone recommends a good app in addition to any settings that would be great.
