Is the force GPU rendering in ICS of any good? What does it do? Will activating it improve speed, battery life etc?

It makes everything smoother. Also doesn't affect battery life too much

How can I determine whats sucking my Battery in Miui? Is there a helpful app or setting? Using test build 8
I'd like to keep it. It is snappy and beautiful.

There are 2 apps I've used. Spare Parts and CPU Spy.
I found a good one after all and was able to control some hogs. Android Assistant breaks it down nicely.

Ok, running trigger #15. Just flashed glitch v11 kernal. I'm looking to try to get some more speed need help adjusting any suggestions? I have some screenies to post as well.

Voltage is for battery it wont effect speed an performance kills battery because it stays at top speed 4 me I OC an do 1.2ghz conservative to get good balance of speed an battery

does the galaxy s2 with live wallpaper make the phone slow down when scrolling through apps?
Didn't notice a difference in speed.
No not really because Samsung is using the gpu acceleration for the UI

I haven't noticed any difference in phone speed.

However, I feel like the battery drains a bit faster when using live wallpaper.

U R Right, the battery does drain faster if using any live wallpapers.
I used to notice a slow down on my captivate but none at all on the gs2.

I think the title of my thread says everything....
i would like to know if its good to activate force gpu or not.
I read once that it forces hardware acceleration instead of software, making it quicker, taking extra load of the CPU and also increasing battery life... not sure if that's true though.

Would be nice if its true

Uses more memory.

So i really want my phone to run a little bit faster and smoother. My processor has never been over clocked so it should be good. What are some tweaks or things to try with CPU and stuff like that

You can install a custom ROM, that allows you to change memory sizes? Also the only cool thing you can do with the CPU is over clock and under clock when needed. Use setcpu for overclocking after you root your phone. Or if you have a custom ROM that has the setting built in, use those. And always use the right amount of speed and voltage.

Well I've had my phone rooted for quite a while I'm just wandering if anyone has any particular tweaks like memory what to over clock it to stuff like that
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
Setcpu is over clocking app I use. It also comes with many different settings for it and schedules for your processor to be clocked on. I don't know of any apps that would even let you change memory sizes? You usually have to get a specific kernel and custom ROM to directly customize memory type. Hope that helps

Well I'm usually on devil kernel. But is there a specific voltage you would recommend over clocking to?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
I can't remember the voltages of the phone, but I believe a good voltage would be around 1350mv. Running the processor close to max, but under enough so the phone doesn't heat up, or start lagging.
