Please help, games are laggy :( - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, I have some problems with almost all games, I tryed all, thd games, gameloft games, market games....
I cant play any game smooth, what is wrong, I tested it on all actuell custom roms.
Please help me, the games running blazing fast on my galaxy note, but not on my tab

These would help make it easier on other's to help, Firmware Version and #? What tab version? Custom or Stock Kernel?
But yes I will have to agree, most games that end up scaling are **** laggy, Only game that hasn't lagged on me hard was "Where's My Water?" and "Osmosis HD", if you aren't on 1.4Ghz by Pershoot, most lag so damned hard, BS tegra2
Yoda : I couldn't play initially, lag strong with this one, yes.
Just change the governor in Pershoots Kernel to performance but don't keep it on performance all the time, when your done gaming, change it back to ondemand or something as performance on all the time will kill the tablet faster as it makes the GPU processing 100% making games smooth and lagfree at most.

My tablet was doing that too but then I followed the advice of people in here and installed pershoots kernel and set CPU and set it to 1400 and it got super fast

What governor did you use? Performance?

lag in games with non stock kernal

Does anybody else experience lag in games if they use a non stock kernel?
I play a lot of fpse PSX emulator. But if I use a non stock kernel then the games are unplayable, like 5fps, even if I overclock to 2ghz.
As soon as I install stock kernel at 1.5ghz they play fine.
It's a shame really as I like to overclock and have hardware keys
i would also like to know the answer to this question.. i have a lot of hangups and game freezes on anything but stock kernel..
cool,thought it was just me doing something wrong.
After a lot of playing this afternoon the stock kernel just seems so much smoother in everything which is strange really as you would have thought something like doomkernel running at 1800mhz would be much faster.

Any real benefits of overclocking?

Well i have rooted my phone and wanted to overclock my S2.. Now i need to install a custom kernel for that , so was thinking of going with siyah..
However i just wanted to know whether is it really worth overclocking? I mean i will go back to stock settings for day to day usage.. but like for playing games and stuff..i would like to overclock my cpu..
There are few 3d games mainly open world ones like gangstar rio city, amazing spiderman which lag a bit even on S2..
So just wanted to know whether overcloking to1.4 or 1.5 will show any improvements or not? Also how does it affect the overall performance of the device i.e. opening apps, swiping through home screens, home screen lag etc.
Answers would be greatly appreciated
thanks

well OC does improve performance of the phone while doing the benchmark test's,but the same is not recommended for longer use since it creates lots of isssue's like Random freezing, rebooting, overheating etc which is not good for ur phone.
hence the best thing is to try out some good kernels like Siyah, fluxi etc and see how ur games fare with there default settings and also u can set the Governers in the same(siyah, Fluxi kernel) and try, that way its safe rather than Overclocking
Well, more performance (but for me not that much) at the expense of battery life and a damaged chip set sooner than later in the future
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
So do u think installing siyah kernel will have a postive impact on the performance of the phone overall as well as games? by the way regarding OC, ofcourse i wont overclock the whole time , only when playing those demanding 3d games..
more replies especially from experienced overclockers would be appreciated, thanks..
I am not installing any custom rom currently as RR and few others have reportedly been not so stable for gaming..the games crash or force close etc..
so gonna stick with stock rom for now..but i do want a performance enhancing kernel
You won't need to overclock at all whilst playing games. The cpu will be more than sufficient and stock speeds. Also the gpu does main of the gaming bits and that will have no problem as it can play tegra games
well thats d prob..there are few games that do lag on d great s2 lol as mentioned in my post... so was wonderkng wheyher overclocking cpu and/or gpu will affect performance or not..
thanks for f replies though

Asphalt 7 feels laggy

Hello everybody, just bought this game but it feels a bit laggy for me. Is it normal in this device(i9100)? I'm using the latest siyah kernel with a stock samsung based rom.
I think this game should run smoothly (100%) in my device. Overclocking is not a solution for my problem. It seems to be bad optimization because sometimes it feels completely smooth (60fps) but for example, when waterfalls are on the way the game becomes laggy (20-25 fps). It is still playable but i think it should be completely smooth.
Sorry for my bad english...

try with a different Governer(set the same using Xtweaks on siyah) and see

It is not governer fault, i think.
Tried with performance goberner, which sets cpu full power all the time and... same results!!!
It makes no sense for me! Our device should run this game smooth!! Isn't it?
London race is smoother than Rio. Rio's waterfalls or... race in general is the one which makes the game laggier.
It's gameloft's fault. People on SIII and on One X are also complaining about lags. It's not the device, it's not the ROM, it's not the Kernel. It's the game.

I meant Hawai, not Rio.
So, poor game optimization... uh!
Like the dark knight rises? That game has the crappiest performance I've ever seen. In my device at least...

Another question....
While gaming gpu is more important than cpu in every times?. It means that cpu is not fully using? Or it works like on computers? Some games demand more cpu.. others more gpu...
Is it worth while overclocking cpu?
If you use siyah kernel, you may try Default or Performance profile. Boot in to recovery, choose last line ( Kernel options... i don't remember exactly).
Or try other kernel such as CF root kernel bases on stock kernel, and stock kernel always gives good performance.

using ExTweaks?

I've looked around and can't find any info at all,
I play Gangstar Rio City Of Saints on my sgs2 but I experiance a lot of lag issues.
I'm hoping over-clocking/ changing cpu/gpu settings could eradicate this only ExTweaks has no instructions whatsoever and I don't want to make any n00b mistakes.
Can someone tell me how to optimize my phone for high-end gaming please?

This high end gaming should be, if your device is supported, possible without any lags and without OC. You have a rom with Siyah at this moment?

Yes, I'm on DiLiDroiD UHLPS, 3.0.15-Siyah-s2-v4.1.5+
thanks for your reply
I'm sorry, wouldn't know any other suggestions than to try this game with another (newer) rom and a upgraded Siyah version, and see if the problem still exists. OC shouldn't be necessary in my opinion.
Why don't you make a Nandroid back up and flash another rom to try?

I'm limited to what Roms I can use because I use Jkay Deluxe Settings, this app is a must for me.... while your here, could you advise me how to overclock safely(ish)
It all looks foreign to me, GPU FREQ STEP1- 100Mhz.......??? ExTweaks really should have a guide of some sort, ANY SORT!
Thanks again for reply

I use my phone for wifi, to download 300Mb roms just to try would be ridiculous when they download at around 20kps (PLEASE SEE OTHER THREAD BY ME TITLED -wifi tethering ridiculous fluctuations, those tech minded please reply- ASKING FOR HELP ON THIS MATTER, which has 72 views and not a single reply I might add)

I have zero knowledge about OC, so I can't help you with it...
Good luck anyway.

I had the same problem you have with the browser app, it was really lagging when I clicked on a link, always took at least a few seconds to load the page. So I went onto ExTweaks and OC'd my CPU to 1600mhz and my GPU to all the highest settings, it didn't make any difference to my browser but now if I'm ever stranded in the Arctic I can use my phone to melt ice into water, for about 15 minutes before the batter dies that is.
Gta gangstar rio city is a poorly optimized game..so it will lag no matter what
So dont bother about this game..
I have also been struggling with finding rom/kernel combo for best gaming performance..and none of the users actually help here as they just want to underclock their s2 and have long batterry life and flaunt their s2..thats it!!!
for getting better fps..i would suggest using ondemand governer..and use 500-1400 mhz scaling on CPU and set your gpu to like 200-267-400 and set low thresholds..But beware this is for serious gaming only lol and will drain your battery pretty good..but u will get a fps boost of about 6-7. A slightly pretty lower setting is : cpu scaling same and set gpu to 200-267..with ondemand governer..this is also gives you a good gaming performance
also..download nenamark 2 and let me know what fps u get with siyah 4 kernel and note the settings in extweak used..im also thinking of switching from siyah 3.5 to 4 but got no time to test lol

I play so many HD games including Ganstar, NFS MW, Modern Combat 3 without no lag what so ever. And I do not use OC because it causes the phone to overheat. I think somethings wrong with your current ROM. Do a backup and try another ROM just to check

From my experience in general, only a few apps tend to overheat my sg2 (overclocked to only 1.4 Ghz though).

I want to know how Modern Combat 4 is working in your s2 device?

For me its lagging as hell, I can't really enjoy from this game, I just paid for this game
and try to play MP and SP too, but the game working very slow and bad!
however, I see that there is devices out there that runs the game smoothly with lower graphics settings
we can't really change this settings, as i know Gameloft recognize our device and tell's the game how to run
for our hardware. maybe someone here know how to change this settings to disable effects for better performance.
share how this game is work for you, Thanks :good:
mine lags too.
on Leak jellybean rom..
I don't know how people say vice city and mw4 run smooth at max setting..
never the case for me..
Vice City runs fine on my S2. I am running CM10 with Siyah Kernel and have the gpu overclocked to 400Mhz, it runs absolutely smooth with only minor framedrops when loading in new content.
To see if the overclocked GPU could be your problem I also tried it with the GPU at stock 267Mhz and I didn't noticed a big change in FPS, still totally playable. CPU was clocked at 1300Mhz.
I hope this helps you, CM10 rocks! I dont have modern combat 4.
EDIT: both times it was running on max graphics.
