how to root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15309588&postcount=2 (step 1)
Rooting gives you access to the phones infastructure, gives super user access allowing you to modify system files, its basically hacking the phones files...there are two apps you can use to root, z4root and gingerbreak..I recommend gingerbreak as I don't know of z4root is still used.. once you root, the possibilities are limitless well according to your phones hardware/software limitations
Overclocking simply boost your phones ability to process information faster...by default it runs at 600 mhz but with tools like setcpu and no frills you can set OC to your liking, a good combo is 480 minimum 729 maximum and the governer is your choice..interactivex and smartsssv2 are the most commonly used
Also look at the stickies in each forum, users like knzo, sweetnsour, sweetm,dj-optimusone,ciaox have gone to great lengths writing detailed threads on everything a noob needs to know

The reasons your games are lagging is because our phones can't handle that much 3for accelerated type games...our phones CPU is barely under a gig, if you want to play games like what you write you need atleast a SnapDragon type processsor

Atm I seem t be getting 2200 Ms , others have got 1600ms, just wondering what everyone else is getting on ics
where do you go to run this benchmark? does it has it own app or is this result included in others like ChainFire Bench or Antutu?
edit: NVM I got it. pretty good score, 1722.7ms ,considering I didn't even do it after a fresh reboot or closing any apps. screenshot below
Yea that's whatI expected on mine...wonder why my Score was slower... Maybe a restart will do the trick

also I noticed if you run it from the stock browser, score will always be slow. run same test on opera mobile and score are alot better. Another clue to show how Opera mobile is alot faster n better browser than the stock one.
just ran another test n scored even better: 1641ms
Is that on stock or opera

Opera. running same test on stock browser gives slow results. even when the test is running on stock it runs slow. run it on opera and you will see it literally zipping through the test flashing and everything.
Awesome thanks .
Sometimes it annoys me how opera renders some pages

Looking for the best rom for gaming.
Been playing nova 3, 69p at the moment.
And real racing 2.
Both games lag at times.
Can anyone recommend a rom and kernel combo which they find works very well, Im looking for the best.
I'm currently on foxhound 1.4.4, using siyah kernel, the rom itself is the best I've used, however when gaming on the said two games I get lag.
Any help, pointers or suggestions is appreciated.
Cheers.

Really? What games have you played on that rom? Any of the two that i mentioned?
thanks for replying.
It doesn't really matter, most tw roms are the same anyway except for a few cosmetic changes.
What you need is to overclock your gpu when playing graphics intensive games, siyah will let you oc the gpu up to 700mhz and still be stable (it goes up to 800 but it's not stable)

If you NEED to overclock one of the most powerful GPU's for mobile devices around, then there is definitively something wrong with your game...
well dead trigger runs really well, even with tegra 3 graphics switched on, now i know that real racing isn't optimized very well and i've only just played nova 3 this once, but surely it should work well on the S3, and fyi, theres nothing wrong with my device m8, i've tried this on about 4 different s3's and all yield the same results.
The games are all paid for versions too.
Maybe i'm not ocing the GPU, i hadn't touched it but will check it out.
Cheers.
What are you using to OC your gpu?
thanks.

I agree completely, mine is at 440mhz and I have no problem with any games I play (gtaIII asphalt mini motors etc) but I do know that some games are very badly optimised and need an extra bit of grunt to get them to run smoothly.

Been using hypergalaxy n so far games are not lagging..not oc at all
stock rom is good enough for all the hd games. Nova 3 single player and multiplayer, and real racing 2 run perfect.
Check if you have something intensive running in the background

i dont think roms have anything to do with playing games! some apps may FC in some roms though, generally a fast rom will be ideal :good:

Nothing i can put my finger on m8, it's a clean install of foxhound and it appears to be fine running the rom, i'm using apex if you think that matters.
Using Siyah kernel 1.5beta

I have a fast rom (foxhound) nothing much installed, killed all 3rd party apps with autostarts.
Using Siyah and although the games run at an acceptable frame rate, i think there is some lag still present.

Precisely, all of the games that you just mentioned run absolutely fine on my phone, however Nova 3 and real racing 2 are not running as well as they should be.

Ppsspp is an app that lets you emulate psp games on android. Anyone have any success using it on our phones?

I used it, and it runs well, for the game that are supposed to run well.
You have a full list of games that works on PPSSPP on their website.
I can't give out the websites to download the ISOs though...Torrent it.
I tested a few games. I'll update with more results eventually.

Yes, I have the last Ver of ppsspp (downloaded today 06/27)
With your config i'm getting 45-50 fps with frameskipping on, and 30-34 without frameskipping, and i am having this "lag" problem with other games like Modern Combat 3, Dead Trigger, etc... can be a modem/radio issue?
Hmmmm... What rom are you using? I'm using the stock telus jb ROM with the at&t modem. Are you sure you're not interchanging vps vs fps? I get 60 fps and ~45 to 60 vps, but it still runs smooth enough that I would play it. I'll make a short video later tonight so you can see how it runs on my note. Try closing all your running apps before you play it.

Sorry, Sorry Sorry, I'm confusing, i'm talking about the VPS... not FPS, i reach to 60 FPS but with VPS at 30-50 isnt very smooth...
i'm using the Padawan JB v2 ROM...
Ahhh OK. My vps dips to 30 sometimes, like when a match just starts. But its usually around 50 and that's fairly playable IMO. If you are using the phase kernel, try overclocking and see if you get better results. Although I don't think it would male much of a difference. If the phase kernel can oc GPU then it might make things run smoother

Can overlock the GPU? HOW?! XD, since i installed i'm trying to OC the GPU with the "Trickster MOD" APP, that's included with the ROM, and i'm using that kernel (phase kernel) and these app always return the "OC" to 266 when i apply the changes... i tried to OC at 300 and 320, always same problem...
I haven't personally used the phase kerenl so if the oc isn't sticking, try looking around the padawan thread for a solution
