Im having issues with some games. After playing for a while the game freezes.
Already tried different roms and kernels with no success.
Thats why im thinking its a hardware thing, but i have to prove it someway...
The games that shoots the issue are:

my phone was freezing to then I tried the ram fix and that's what it has. check and see how much ram you have and get setcpu
totalmem: 835152 kb
normal value isn't it?
now on cm7 weekly 4 clemsyn1.0 kernel.
but already tried different roms and kernels and didn't solve the issue

Went back to stock SBF and solve the thing (by now no more freezes) now will unlock bl and root, then flash rom and tell.
Thx
Anybody who was having problems with games freezing? Needs to go grab fauxs new beta kernel on the last page of his kernel thread or wait a little bit as hes about to post the official one as this fixes alot of freezing/crashing issues! It has for me and don't forget to thank faux!

Hi everybody.
Right now, I am using ResurrectionRemix 1.7 ROM and the Siyah 3.2b8 Kernel. I love both the ROM AND the Kernel, however, a while ago, I noticed the performance of my SGS2 being pretty bad.
Now, before you call me a noob that knows nothing about Smartphones, Custom-ROMS, Kernel, etc., please, do me the favor and read on.
I know that neither ResurrectionRemix or Siyah Kernel are optimal if you want pure power and maximum Performance. I have always been a Fan of balanced battery/performance. However, I find it to be quite bizarre that my phone gets very bad scores in Benchmarks.
I know that benchmarks can be unaccurate/treaturous/not representative, but the thing is that I never got a higher score than 4000 on AntutuBenchmark and no more than around 2500 on Quadrant, no matter what settings and tweaks I use!
I have tried so many of them and the scores never really changed much.
For example, yesterday, I flashed the new Version of my Kernel (Siyah 3.2b8). I then changed the ExTweaks settings to "performance" in CWMRecovery. I overclocked my CPU to 1400MHz with VoltageControl, locked it (with performance governor) and changed the scheduler to VR.
I still only got 3264 on Antutu and 2442 on Quadrant...
Before that, I had tweaked my Kernel (using ExTweaks) with the sample values given in the awesome Tweaks Post by droidphile. I really tried lots of different Tweaks and settings, but never got any good results in Benchmarks. NEVER!
I would be glad if some of you had suggestions what could be the Problem. I know you can easily get to 6000 (Antutu) or 4000 (Quadrant) with the GSG2. Normally, I am not the guy who just cares about Benchmarks and compares it with others on a daily basis, however, this (very) low performance of my phone really intrigues me. After all, we bought the GSG2 for its awesome Power capabilities, didn't we?
Info:
I have quite a lot of Apps installed (about 190), if that helps.
As you have failed to read the rules and post in the wrong section you are a noob or worse .
Its been well posted for over a year benchmarks are a waste of time Quadrant in particular .
No two benchmarks run one after the other are the same .
jje
You have some thing ****ing your results and maybe your overall performace with games are affect.
Did you tried full wipe ?
Here with stock lp9 + siyah 3.2b8 i got 4400 quadrant and 6500 antutu
Using CM9 3900 on quadrant and 6100 antutu.

I also Have same problem
First of all, I am very sorry to have posted in the false section.
@ Eric-Filth: Thanks for your answer!
I often did a data wipe/factory reset when I tried different ROMs.
My games run fine more or less, but I am sure that the performance could be better/smoother.
Again: I have NO IDEA why absolutely everyone has better results than me.
@ JJEgan: Yeah I know Benchmarks are often inaccurate, but I did run them so often and always got about the same results (very bad ones, obviously). It only varied about 100-200 points in both benchmarks. That is not too big of a difference, is it? But whatever, that is not what matters. Do you have a suggestion, noble sir?
BTW: Thanks for the quick judge! Compared to you, I am definitely a noob. So, why don't you use your wisdom to make suggestions for a noob like me?
No offense, m8!
Cheers!
Looking you results both benchmarks showing your problem is with cpu performace. Gpu performace is ok.

did you restore via titanium backup after wiping?
Yeah but what could be the problem? As far as I know, a modern CPU cannot be half-broken. It either works correctly or it's broken completely. The only reason I can imagine is overheating (thermal throttling lowering the performance), but that doesn't seem to be the case, as my phone hardly ever gets very hot...
Mine is also lagging in performance also around 2200in quadrant

@bluefa1con: errrrrr it's possible that I backed up my apps from stock after rooting and before installing my first custom ROM, which was actually the ResurrectionRemix ICS 1.x. After a while I backed up the ResRemix ROM with CWM and tried different ROMs but I eventually came back to Resurrection because I like this ROM most.
So yeah, I might have restored Apps with Titanium Backup when I first installed ResRemix.
Could that really be a problem?
Big thanks anyway!
I have almost sure if you do full wipe and no restore anything and install all again this problem will resolve.

Besides the benchmarks (sigh), how else have you noticed? If the answer is that you haven't, move on with your life.

maybe some of the data in your backup is corrupt and runs in the background and ruins performance
My phone went from 4k+ on stock Rom to less than 3 with ics resurrection..the rom is blazing fast and hence I don't really care.

Thank you very much! All of you!
I will do a full wipe and install everything all over again.
Only two more little questions:
1. Is there a "best" way to do the full wipe? After doing a factory reset and wiping the caches, I would go to mounts and storages and format internal storage. Would that do the trick?
2. Is there any way I can keep the user data of the apps so I don't lose all of my settings, game saves,...?
Cheers!

Have two good methods.
1- if you using stock rom. Type *2767*3855#
2- if you using custom. Enter CWM Recovery and wipe "data" "system" "cache"
I keep my save games this way.
/data/data/nameyourgame/files probaly you save game is there or inside /android/data/nameyourgame/
Post your results later.

Do you use task killer? If no, then kill all your qpps before running bencmarks. Altrough benchmarks are just waste of time

Hi! I wanted to ask you guys if you experiment any lag when you play HD games like NOVA 3 or Real Racing. When I had the stock kernel i suffered it, but now with siyah Kernel 1.5b5 It seems to be more swift, but sometimes it still happens.
Also, does your galaxy gets very heated while gaming? Mine does, even on the screen side...
I would appreciate if you could answer me! So many thx!
PS: sorry about my English but I'm Spanish!

- Lag occasionally occures , not that much
- Games are being running smoothely with me HD games i mean .
- Heat is not that much , i use to play 8 hours daily , ofcoursse the tail temp increases , but not that much compared with playable time .
My advice is run the mobile in air condition room if you're using it for long time as the phone temp diffenetly impact the battery and performance if it exceeds the limit
Ok, thx for your answer!

Same for me, the phone gets not very hot (not as hot like Galaxy S2). NOVA 3 very smooth for me (same with Real Racing 2) i have lags playing Batman, but i think Gameloft could make it better.
Solved: For now the best solution is to put faux123 kernel.
Try using faux's 1.0 kernel or even the 1.3 kernel for a little bit of extra juice. The default MROM kernel is made for battery life.
Will try it..
Btw: are the blur based roms good for this?
Sent desde mi MB860
Try it. It just depends on the game. Unless someone has tried the same game, you will not know for certain. Try the faux123's/OC kernels. They're available for both blur and CM7.

I flashed it and yeah it is a good diference , thanks dudes
(if you suggest me a rom for gaming would be awesome)
Sent desde mi MB860
CSROM seems to be a good choice since it has the least amount of bloatware. There's also a "Turbo" version of that ROM. Try it. But if it works fine in CM7 now, then just use that.

I am going to try CSRom, the thing is that it works OK on cm7 but if it can work faster, is better. Thanks btw

Try deleting any apps you don't use; some have a habit of starting up and taking up resources for no reason. I personally use LBE to stop certain apps from loading.
If you really need performance, try the 1.45 faux123 kernel. (it's included in CSROM turbo) Keep in mind, your battery will die faster and your phone might run hot.

Go JB, OC it with 1.3Ghz with performance governor.
I have no lags playing GTA vice city, NBA 2k13 and NFS Hot Pursuit.
I am on CS Rom right now, and... dayum! Thanks all!

So my Galaxy s3 all of a sudden started to have stutters, i have a custom rom Foxhound 2.3, and when i try any custom kernel it lags as hell. (Stock also gives stutters so its not kernel related i think)
For example perseus stutters my phone in app drawer and every time i open an application.
Syah 1.8.9. although its better, still have some stutters...
the only one that can have the phone more stable is the stock one. I dont really mind having the stock kernel its just that it makes the phone more stable but it still stutters when opening apps and in the app drawer.
Its weird because in applications i have no problems, and when im playing games is all good to.. even the more heavy intensive ones. Also my boot and shutdown animation stutter or jitters a little bit.. a thing that dint happened.
Also the benchmarks are good as always +/- 16000 on antutu, no changes... so i don't really understand whats happening...
Steps so far:
-Tested other custom roms including CM10.1 Nightly
-Tested various kernel.
-Flashed stock rom with odin
Every time with megawipe. always...
I'm not familiar, just tossing a ball here.
Is your SD card dying and causing frequent remounts or something?
Does removing the SD card helps?

No.. not a all...
I tried stock sammy roms like Chaos or aokp roms like paranoid android or rootbox and i only got 12 hors of battery (3h or 4h on screen time) and i tried some differentk kernels like siyah, boeffla or perseus too with modified tweaks(undervolting) to improve battery performance, but no result. I also greenify Maps, Twitter, Facebook...all sounds disabled...wifi and 3g not all the time, minimum brightness... Maybe i need some parameters to improve battery performance but all that ive tried dont work like they should be, any suggestion? Or maybe try another kernel? Now I use the latest Chaos Build 4.1.2 and Siyah Kernel with cpu and gpu undervolting
Ps: I dont find anything strange in BBS

chaos may use a lot of battery coz of its unique mods and themes..
for me xperianze and paranoid were good.. LOL actually dont expect too much from battery on an quad core phone..
but try an lite-weight sammy based rom with perseus kernel..
Try a small rom that has removed a lot of bloatware, use greenify app and best modem for your region, test some battery saving apps to find What's best for you.

Do you game much? Fastest battery killer in my experience
I never play games, i‘m going to disable and delete some samsung bloatware, and install boeffla kernel with zzmove-optimized governor and different gpu frequencies if that can help... But i dont expect so much :/ i‘ll tell you...thanks

I have the latest jellybean modem, i'm from spain, and I dont know what modem is the best to fix my battery draining, what modem would you advice me? thanks in advance

YOU? dont disable.. just use an new rom
oh come on , with 3 - 4 hours screen on , what more can you ask ? it is normal with that kinda screen time-on
Maybe it's your battery thats dodgy? Have you tested your battery yet? Else get on ebay and get a battery to suit your needs. Saves all the hassle.
