Andreno 220 doesnt beat tegra in real world performance, benchmarks are bias, ive tried n64oid on my phone and n64oid on my buddies tegra 2 atrix, mario kart stutters as well as sound on evo 3d, ive tried multi roms, atrix runs sound and game perfect, no sound issues or stuttering gameplay, goldeneye runs like crap on evo where atrix is running full speed, both phones non rooted or oc'd. Gameloft games run good on andreno 220 like nova 2 and spiderman, modern combat 2 runs great but not n64oid, i thought this be a stepup from evo 4g which did the same, my only answer is snapdragon cpu sucks with emulators cause ive heard emu run off cpu. What really pisses me off is theirs guys on here saying mariokart runs flawless on evo 3d but it runs stuttery on my phone, qnd im not a noob ive had cm7 on my evo 4g so being rooted increase performance but theirs no root for 3d evo yet so what gives, ik running n64oid v1.1.4 :.......... Any help would be great ive seen vids of htc desire hd running mariokart perfect and its not even dual core is their a setting im missing ive tried max frame skip on 10 and on 0

Funny, I'm not really having the lagging issues. I'll get a random stutter from time to time, but I've seen that on every phone, regardless of chipset.
Can you try to get a logcat going while you are playing so we can see what may be causing it, maybe an app syncing or something.

so what your saying that it sucks ONLY for emulators? because i havent tried them but for everything else i say it works flawlessly.
n64oid doesn't care what gpu you are using.
That's interesting to hear. I may have to try it out. Mario Kart ran really smooth on my Epic.
I think you failed to mention that the dev of the N64oid said hell update the app to take advantage of the dual core. Its the app not the phone.
Anyways as with most trolls, opinions always trump the facts.

The Atrix is a lower tech phone by... the SMALLEST of percentages. 7%?. you realize that isn't 70% right?
Atrix is a dual core as well, it's not "low tech" by any means.
also, been out long enough for the developer of N64roid to probably, I dunno, update his app to work better with that one.
give it some time, it's a brand new phone and needs to be updated for. patiences

But why?!?
The Qualcomm CPU should kick ass. (Granted, it might not be faster than the Exynos in SGII but it shouldn't be MUCH slower) The GPU is also on par, if not faster than the Mali and Tegra GPU...
So why do my Benchmark scores kinda suck? My Tegra2 powered 7 inch tablet usually gets way better scores than my Evo3D... On some benchmarks it's even noticably behind LG Optimus 2X and similar phones that it should be AT LEAST on par with, if not faster...
Is it only the ROM that's at fault here or what's going on? What benchmark scores do the rest of you get? Smartbench, Antutu, Quadrant, CF Bench and all the rest of them?
(And yes, the phone is smooth enough in everyday use. And benchmarks don't mean everything, but it DOES mean something...)
It only means anything if all you do is bench testing on your phone. Try play games, watch films and take some picture with youe phone instead.
The mal 400 is way faster than anything else in android phones.
Never the less, nothing comes close to taxing the 3d processor or go. So don't worry about benches.
What more do you really need out of EVO3D benches to see that with the right ROM, and not having 46 widgets and livewallpaper running in the background, you can get some pretty nice scores:

Various roms, kernels, no telling really what at the time, but pretty much in line. There's something wrong with the Rom you're on, or your setup if you can't get good benches with this phone, IMHO.
What ROM, kernel, are you running, and what's a 'bad' score in your book?
<<Robotron 2084 = Perfection>>
I love it when people jizz over benchmark scores. Like justj said, try some apps, games, and movies. If they run fantastically, then you're phone is running great, and you don't need to worry about silly benchmark numbers.

Ah, thank you... I'll turn off everything but the benchmarking app, and get back to you with the scores... As for "bad score" well, I'd expect it to beat my tablet (Tegra2, 1024*600 resolution) as well as the LG 2X, Atrix, Optimus 3D, and most of the newer phones on the market, really. Which it at present doesn't do. It gets beaten by the Nexus S in some benchmarks!
Video and games and so on run pretty fast and smooth, so overall I'm happy and don't place TOO much weight on benchmarks. I just find it odd, because benchmarks to certain degree DO reflect real world performance.

Didn't know you had a GSM phone.... Those are capped at 80% of potential speed by the Canadian Government.
(Nah, j/k).
Good luck on outbenchmarking the LG2X... (you'll need it). Benchmarks can't save a bad phone, but if they could, that's where they'd start. I've seen multiple screens from multiple Lg2x users running CM7 with Quadrant Standard scores of over 5K. That's insane.
We'll probably never see that on an EVO3D, but it doesn't matter, because ultimately, the LG2X isn't half the phone at the end of the day.
Just my 2 cents.
Edit: If your tablet happens to be a Viewsonic Gtab, well, forget that notion as well. That basically is at the top of every benchmark 'top scores' list.
I've got one.
Is it fast?
Incredibly fast.
Would I trade it right now for a "slower" tablet that was a "better" tablet?

I could always upload screenshots later if you think that might be a good idea, but here are some scores:
Antutu: 4442, which puts it behind both the S2, the Optimus 2X and the Motorola Xoom (!?!)
Nenamark 2 reported a somewhat respectable 25.6.
Smartbench 2011 (Supposedly the only benchmark suite that takes dualcore into consideration): Productivity: 2397 Games: 1650
(Which is behind the Transformer Tab and Atrix in both categories, and even behind the Nexus S and Galaxy S in Games)
Quadrant:1491 (Just ahead of Moto Droid X and Nexus One at 1250!)
Devicemark: 1325 (Equal to Desire HD, but behind the Atrix and LG 2X)
CF Bench: 8740, 1364, 4314 (Way behind both the Atrix and the Sensation?!)
I think that's it as far as the benchmarks I ran. I can upload the screenshots if you think it might help. As for the phone, it's a Rogers phone with the 2.3.4 Gingerbread, HTC software: 1.20.631.2
(BTW: What does "SMP PREEMPT" mean in the Kernel version?!?)

There is something seriously wrong. The least you should be getting is around 2000-2500.
Yeah, I turned off background apps, etc. What scores do people with the Rogers ROM usually get? Would backing up and then a full restore to factory settings help?
I'm rooted btw, but didn't install an alternate rom.
No question that the gs2 benches well but after having one for a couple days I missed my 3d..I trade benches for a smooth and usable UI ..but ocd I can beat the gs2 in every bench app there is ..I never felt the supposed increase in speed that the epic has ..the 3d opened my apps faster and was more stable using games that utilized the gyro ie homerun baseball 3d ..almost unplayable on the gs2..our phones have plenty of power either way we have plenty of power on tap
Nope. Quadrant seems about right from what I remember with the Rogers ROM. Not much better with LeeDroid either.
Might have to do with the inability of GSM devs to tweak the kernel and overclock as HTC messed up the board files in the kernel sources they released for the GSM.

Oooh... I'm VERY interested in the A100... I'm actually going to Best Buy today, as they finally have them in stock @~300$... But they have the Flyer as well at the same price...
The a100 IS sporting a dual-core Tegra2 A9 processor, is it not?
And since HC 3.2 in a brand-new device is probably optimized better, speed-wise, I, for one, would expect it to out-perform the 3d in a benchmark test, even @ 1000Mhz.
How do you like the A100, overall?

I actually really like it! When I was in the store, I let all the tablets do a sunspider test, and the A100 actually came out ahead of everybody, even the iPad2, so it IS a zippy little fella.
Anything in particular you'd like to know? The two cameras are just fine, the few times I used them for anything else than a webcam, they did the job fine.
Speakers are great and really loud. The screen is a bit on the dim side, but turning off the auto light in settings take care of that. It's really comfortable to hold, even for extended periods of time, even if the plastic might make it feel and look less than a premium product.
Batterylife is kinda meh, I usually don't get more than 5 hours out of it, but then again it's pretty rare that I take it somewhere where there isn't a charger around. The only thing I can think off that would require your tab to be on for 5 hours is a plane trip, and even most of those have chargers these days
The only caveat I would have, is that as a Evo3D owner a 7 inch screen might be a bit too small. I mean the difference between 7 and 4.3 inches isn't that big in daily use, and after getting the Evo I kinda find the 7 inch screen a bit on the small side. Might just be me though. If I had to choose any tablet today, I think I'd go for the Galaxy. The 10 inch size is just right, and it weighs pretty much the same as the A100, and since getting a tablet I've found out that weight means more in terms of portability than just size.
The only other thing I've found to be annoying would probably also apply to the Flyer: There aren't too many tablet apps available as it is, and the few tablet apps there are, aren't always compatible with 7 inch tabs. There are way more apps and games available for 10 inch tablets.
Oh yeah, one more thing: The A100 is super easy too root. Took me like 5 mins. But the support for it is pretty poor. There's like no ROMs available for it at all, which I find really weird. Not yet anyways, but hopefully it'll gain some devs...

BTW, I posted this somewhere else, and you may already know this trick, but if you wanna "revert your UI to Gingerbread" on an HC tablet (I did.... Just not into HC yet), and since you've already rooted, if you change your density to 171 (or above) , it will revert the ui to GB, (something you might be more used to, or like better) , while maintaining compatibility with those 3.0 apps.

How is it that the Xiami Mi-One, running the same dualcore snapdragon (@ 1.5 GHz) as the Evo 3D, the sensation and the T-Mobile GSII is able to blow them all out of the water in performance?
I've seen benchmarks from multiple sources but here is one:

Is there any way we can use the optimizations in this phone for our own benefit on the Evo 3D?
Well if you read closer in the article, they say that Vellamo runs browser performance which they equate to processor benchmarking and that Xiaomi have made changes to the stock android browser as well as it runs 2.3.7 instead of 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 and there may be further optimizations in the updated Android. It would be nice to see what modifications have been done to the browser and if they can be appliead elsewhere but:
1. HTC Sense weighs down the OS, which is why EVO 3D performs worse than Xiaomi and Galaxy SII Skyrocket with same processors and,
2. I never trust the Chinese.

Plus, it runs MIUI which has lots of changes.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19456355&postcount=4969
That was my next suggestion. Flash MIUI and see benchmark
Or we can stop relying on benchmarks and start using actual performance as a baseline....
Does anyone actually HAVE IT (outside china) to see how it works?
Also, can I change that mi-UI to ENGLISH?

There is no Evo 3D with a 1.5 Ghz CPU. Perhaps my post is worded poorly but I meant to say the Xiaomi is 1.5 not the Evo.
Technically they are all the same CPU (potentially having different radios) but its possible the Evo 3D's 1.2 GHz chips are the lower binned ones, though I've never heard of an Evo 3D that couldn't handle a 1.5 GHz overclock.
Here is a review of the phone with some benchmark numbers:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/27/xiaomi-phone-review/
Seems like a solid performer and for a very reasonable price, too bad its not available in the US.
Yea the EVO 3d git throttled back for battery saving... But the CPU specs call for 1.52 ghz

LOL. I can imagine a few ways to boost your performance.
For example, with quadrant, use a script to mount its storage to a ramdisk
There's a zillion ways for someone unscrupulous to cheat in these silly scores... With such an unreliable ROM as that one (and I implore you not to run MIUI for a variety of reasons), what makes you think it's being honest about that?
Heck, I could write a memory resident program that would adjust the scores perceived by a benchmark Remember, when you run an untrusted firmware, you cannot trust anything you see on the screen

i find it weird that the sensation feels faster given that aside from cameras and screen technology, the only real difference is RAM, which the E3D has more of. I wonder if it's because of the the dev support on the sensation is greater, therefore they can squeeze more performance out of the device. any thoughts scott?
There is a ROM in the cdma development that OC'd at 1.8 ghz! (I think it was ziggy's dual core kernel that was used in the ROM)

2. I never trust the Chinese.

i dont think its right that you dont trust us only because of where we are born, its not things that we can decide.
most part of chinese are kind deeply, i mean, except the politicians and the f_cking government, you know what i mean
Probably because the hardware and software are developed for each other?
Similar to why people say slow ass iPhones are faster than top of the range Android phones.
That's my guess.

I care little for benchmarks and mainly care about general ui smoothness and gaming performance however with my EVO 3d I get none of the above. the ui is ussually smooth but has occasional hitches even with dual core forced on, 1.566 GHz de under clock and leedroid rom and kernel. stereoscopic 3d games lag immensely and i can confirm that the optimous 3d does not. benchmark scores are very low (which would be acceptable if the phone had a smooth ui and good gaming performance which it does not). On Nenamark 2 i got around 29fps which i thought was unusually low so i checked the comparison chart and on the top was a t mobile gsII with an adreno 220 scoring 54fps which was about 10fps higher than the exynos gsII. also in quadrant i score around 2200 at the most on performance and noticed that t mobile gsII scores were around 4000. why are the sensation and evo 3d so slow?

Have you aceepted the latest OTA update which included a battery fix and radio etc?
It boosted the Nenamark 2's 27-30fps to 42-45fps and the UI is smoother than before on 1.2 Ghz with stock ROM.
If you are Sprint evo 3d user (CDMA) then relock your phone's bootloader (if unlocked) and use this RUU.

Try lowering your overclock or going back to stock to test it. If you are trying to push your CPU too far it will actually start hurting it's performance instead of helping it.
What game are you playing that causes it to lag? I've only seen mine lag once that i can remember and it was just for a moment.

I agree Samsung Galaxy S II is a beast, I was just showing that it is entirely possible for our phone to score in the 4000's as well.
The SII just has a better CPU and GPU, so it isnt a surprise that it outperforms the EVO 3D to me.
i have a gsm evo 3d so that update is not really relevant but thanks anyway, my phone isn`t really over-clocked but scores are definitely higher on 1.566ghz. My phone lags on all stereoscopic 3d games one example being asphalt 6. My UI is actually quite smooth considering that i have widgets on all pages. I tried a sense 3.5 ROM and it is buttery smooth in all aspects however 3d gaming is not working. Does anyone know what is up with fpse and the opengl plugin, when i enable it i get like 40fps when adreno 205 devices get 60. but this thread was mainly to help not only me but others experiencing similar issues. thanks for your replies. BTY the gsII isn`t running sense and has a newer CPU (cortex a9) so that counts as a double boost in benchmark scores.
i cant get over 3100 on quadrant no matter what i do.. my phone overclocks to 1.8.. i think i have tryed almost every rom.. the rom i get 3100 with is the newest cm7 rom with the kernel that comes with the rom.. its an anthrax kernel...
nice! what rom and kernel?

actually that is not entirely true, the main reason i established this thread was not for the lag but because of the fact that the snapdragon t mobile GSII out performed the Mali GSII.
Interesting. Well chock that one up to Samsung being far better electronic engineers than HTC. That will get a lot of hate because people love their HTC phones, but Samsung is just a really great designer of CPUs and firmware.
Most likely the Snapdragon in the GSII is slightly different from ours and even if it is 100% the same, Samsung would probably be using custom tweaked firmware and such.
Think of it like Intel's new solid state drive. It still uses the same SandForce controller as many other products, but a lot of bugs are fixed on the Intel and performance is a bit higher because Intel knows how to develop proper firmware and do testing.
For those people that love their galaxy s2 so much, wait till Samsung pulls the plug on future updates. They have the habit of doing that. Or they just take FOREVER

you htc evo 3d cdma users are lucky because you get all the development, i have a gsm evo and we have like <10 roms available and <15 kernels. the best is probably leedroids rom which has many speed tweaks and features but it still only gets about 2600 in quadrant and 6000 in antutu give or take 100. nenamark still gets sub 35fps even with gpu overclock.
I believe that the most fair way to perform a benchmark with the Evo 3D is to clock the processor to 1.5 gHz because that is the speed that Qualcomm intented for the chip.
OP, it's just you.I get epic performance on my phone. Maybe it's just your stupidity causing the phone to lag.loljk but no, no lag for me.

Has the GSM version closed the performance gap yet ? has an official/3rd party fix update come out
I'm getting mine tommorow and if i don't get adreno220 performance its's got to go lol
My EVO 3D with Stock kernel at 1.2 Ghz and MeanROM 2.0 gets about 3300-3400 in Quadrant.
i always say this, EVO is slower (in benchmarks and UI) because sense... and sense is not only the launcher it is all skinned android background on UI...
remove sense and what you get... using CM7 by KMyers
(i did this benchmark in a robo-battle between EVO3D and SGSII on other forum jaja ...
SGSII wins with 7500 vs my EVO3D with 7200 score , but i want to say, i dont think OC SGSII is twice more fast than evo3d)

To each there own. Me personally, I'm hoping to never see another 3d phone. As for the Tegra, if Sprint gets a varient of the X One, it will come equipped with an Quallcom s4 processor. Only the Euro varients have tegra with no LTE.

wont be terga3 bud sorry. itll be qualcomm s4 if we get the device. HTC stated the reason the LTE version of the phone has the S4 in it was because " ...Nvidia doesn't have very solid LTE which is ready for the market yet,..." http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2400774,00.asp
regardless id much much rather have the new S4 chips than the terga3. it isn't all about # cores. and as ive stated many times that dualcore S4 keeps up or is better than the Terga in just about all tests that anandtech did in their article. Plus you have the advantage of battery saving with the baseband modems being built in the die so no extra LTE modem chip like we do with wimax and others do with 4G so far.

gotcha. if $ is not ever an issue you have that option as always to try as many as you like.
You know those starts are not at the 1.6ghz mark. Those were the scores I got running it stock with a max of 1.3ghz. The test I did was at 1.6 and it is much faster than running 1.3 by a long shot. I'm not discrediting the S4 because it is a very fast chip but I think it will be a closer match running the T3 at its stock, tegra3, speed of 1.6ghz. I'll probably get the S4 if that's all we get and be happy with it. Then I can do some real world comparisons.

yeah but comparing it at 1.6GHz isn't really fair as your comparing a non-stock clock speed. lol...like cranking up the S4 to 1.8GHz to be equivalent to that kind of test since that would be 1GHz over the stated top clock speed.
Tegra3->I show as listed to do Single Core @1.5GHz /Quad-Core @1.4GHz
S4 MSM9060-> listed to do 1.5GHz-1.7GHz on its spec
the above i just used what qualcomm and nvdia listed them as and not the lower clocks the carriers/OEM's set them at btw.
At 1.6 it will run, at least in my tests, three cores only. The same with 1.5ghz. At 1.3 it will run all four. The prime doesn't have it built in to do 1.4 because we don't have a custom kernel yet.
I thought I read that the S4 runs dual at 1.5, is that right? If so then you could compare the two as a close match. Either way we will have to wait till someone besides the manufacturers have it in their hands.

I don't really care for benchmarks on a phone On computers ya also on the video cards for gaming and what not oh ya.. Hopefully they drop something smooth for a cpu nothing that adds more heat and smooth.. To me stock speeds do what I want it to do and works just as fine..

Seriously? Are you kidding me? The 3D feature is complete garbage. I have never used it once other than just to SEE what the hell it was. Very unimpressed. I only got a 3D because it was a beefier spec'd version of the Evo 4G.

To each their own. There's actually some people that can't see it very well, or even at all, and that may be the reason why some don't like it. I think it's innovative. I can sit and enjoy an entire 3D movie on my phone without getting so much as a twitch in my eye. Others got it for the reason you mentioned, but still, if they came out with an EVO 3D 2, you would still buy it because the specs will be better than your current phone.

For sure a good upgrade of htc one x and a good phone. HTC <3
Am I missing something here, most games run badly on my x+, there is stuttering and lag in games like Rayman, Granny Smith, Oscura...and Need For Speed is terrible, for a so called super fast processor I am not too impressed.

Got zero lag in Dead trigger, tho I got major fps issues with Asphalt 7
Hope we will get some custom kernels when source is out.
We had this problem with the original one x too, its due to the gpu clock being synchronized with the cpu clock. that means that if the cpu load it high, per say a tegrazone game like shadowgun, then the gpu scales up as well alowing for fluid gameplay even with detailed graphics. However this also means that when the cpu load is light, i.e temple run, the gpu will hardly scale at all implying that the phone will lag with simple games like doodle jump but not graphics heavy games like dead trigger. Games like asphalt 7 lag because the game probably only uses 1 or 2 core, thus the gpu is only at aroung %50 power. Hamdir found a way to run the gpu independently but we`ll have to wait for proper root and custom recovery for that.

Thanks for great explanation..so is this fixable and has it been done for the One X already? ( link if poss? ) Been thinking of taking it back due to issues of lag on lower specced games.
never experienced lag on rayman and granny smith in the orginal One X, even in stock, maybe your X+ is throttling?
but ryanjsoo is correct, the problem is the ondemand governor settings
if you have root you can fix most of it, we also made simple app for a quick toggle
then we worked on custom kernels and fixed few more trouble with the CPU
but mostly for low specced games its the governor's fault and in a nutshell the gaming boost app will fix it
gaming boost app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29053431&postcount=68 (requires root, if you have it, use the non stock version because the stock version is limited to the classic One X' 1.5ghz)
we also made a gaming kernel here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33805830&postcount=10399 (list of the specific patches we did, also you dont need GPU520, but a kernel similar can help)
gaming guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664391 (a little outdated now, but tons of info, latest info at the top)
need for speed most wanted is the developer fault, on tegra 3 devices with higher than 1.3ghz speed its not calling the proper Tegra optimization
I fixed it here: Need For Speed Most Wanted v1.0.28 for Android - Tegra 3 performance patch + Multiple effects configuration patch
other modded games are found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845993
also most of Gameloft games have a severe allergy to Tegra (they must hate Nvidia or something)

Am I missing something here, most games run badly on my x+, there is stuttering and lag in games like Rayman, Granny Smith, Oscura...and Need For Speed is terrible, for a so called super fast processor I am not too impressed.

Got zero lag in Dead trigger, tho I got major fps issues with Asphalt 7
Hope we will get some custom kernels when source is out.

So it sounds like HTC thought they were amazing by coming out with a tegra 3 device, quad core, clocked at 1.7gh, and cannot play efficiently games such as doodle jump, angry birds, etc? WTF??? Basically if it's not a tegra 3 specific game (only a handful out there to begin with) this phone is basically as good as an iphone first generation when it comes to gaming? WTF is HTC thinking? Above that to make this device work the way it should being talked about so much online about how amazing the processor, tegra 3, quad core, blah blah blah is, we need to go far beyond voiding warranty with root and custom kernals? Epic Fail anyone?
Damn, was really looking forward to picking this device up as soon as it came out on ATT but more i actually read about user reviews, the specs on paper mean crap!!!

never experienced lag on rayman and granny smith in the orginal One X, even in stock, maybe your X+ is throttling?
but ryanjsoo is correct, the problem is the ondemand governor settings
if you have root you can fix most of it, we also made simple app for a quick toggle
then we worked on custom kernels and fixed few more trouble with the CPU
but mostly for low specced games its the governor's fault and in a nutshell the gaming boost app will fix it
gaming boost app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29053431&postcount=68 (requires root, if you have it, use the non stock version because the stock version is limited to the classic One X' 1.5ghz)
we also made a gaming kernel here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33805830&postcount=10399 (list of the specific patches we did, also you dont need GPU520, but a kernel similar can help)
gaming guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664391 (a little outdated now, but tons of info, latest info at the top)
need for speed most wanted is the developer fault, on tegra 3 devices with higher than 1.3ghz speed its not calling the proper Tegra optimization
I fixed it here: Need For Speed Most Wanted v1.0.28 for Android - Tegra 3 performance patch + Multiple effects configuration patch
other modded games are found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845993
also most of Gameloft games have a severe allergy to Tegra (they must hate Nvidia or something)

Just sucks for an android noob like me to have to go through all the above just to have this device work the way it SHOULD out of the box from HTC? Wow

well no i was just trying to be helpful and providing you with all info
we actually worked hard to make it super simple
all you need to do is root and one click with the gaming boost app
and like I said games like rayman and granny smith runs 60fps on stock One X
something is wrong in your scenario so don't generalize yet
and its not HTC or Nvidia's fault if gameloft is fighting them...or if EA messed up their tegra version of NFSMW for most T3 devices, which works fine on the Nexus 7
i dont know its part of the trouble with android i guess

If you can imagine i've just never even used an android device ever and currently using an iphone 4. Waited for the 5 to come out but not impressed with it's specs at all and with no jailbreak that device is completely useless! Did some research and really love what i see in this phone and all the video reviews and what not. Even went to an ATT store to play with the original HOX and liked it. Really looking forward to this when it comes out to ATT in USA.
Just i really game a lot, watch videos, etc with my phone so though this phone would be number 1 in that department but reading more and more stuff like this it sounds like this device is very sub-par when it comes to basic gaming which worries me.
Sorry if i came off rude as there was no intent to the developers on the creation of these hacks, greatly appreciate all their work and time. Just trying to understand what a root is, what a kernal is, etc etc, i think i need a college class on android! Lol. Guess i was spoiled on how easy Apple Ios is and especially all you need is 1 simple jailbreak to unlock it all. Seems there's about 6 different kinds of "jailbreaks" when it comes to android in order to have everything unlocked, root, s-off, custom kernals, etc that i probably still don't even know about. Just trying to learn as much as i can about this stuff but for me it's dang confusing.
As you can see from my sig that last time i was around was the HTC Tilt2 days and wm 6.1 and when basically sense original first came out.
@deeznuts like i said no way it should face trouble running most games
the original complaint came from hawrai68 maybe something is wrong with his set up
Ture, the one x and tegra chip were practically built for gaming, its just that previously not many devices had the tegra soc so not many games are optimized. However recently with the release of the nexus 7 and such, more and more games are supporting tegra including gameloft! the chip itself shouldn`t be the problem and especially with Hamdir here, he`s like a one x prodigy, thanks for your work.

Where have you read that Gameloft supports Tegra? Most of their games lag on Tegra.
