Freeze on HD games on ICS - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, first of all im a AOSP and AOKP rom user since i updated to ics I only tried sammy ICS once (dxlp7) I know its outdated many new release now a days from sammy guys.
Got several issues on playing games on AOSP and AOKP roms it freezes a lot with continues repeating sound and some games doesnt even work like riptide gp.
My question is does latest sammy ICS roms (dxlp9 or xwlp9) has the same freezing issues while playing hd games
Does riptide gp works on sammy ics?
Does temple run freeze with repeating sounds?
Thanks a lot btw i move back to checkROM but i missed ics ui and features.

I'm using WanamLite 11.2 XWLP8 Base, and yes Riptide does tend to freeze every now and then, but sometimes i can play for almost an hour and it plays smooth. The freezing has never been bad enough for me to be bothered by it.

Not every HD games work fine on ics, only the latest version run well.
I played temple run on ics specially im on wanamlite v11.5, no freeze at all.
Update to the latest version of riptide gp, maybe it will work.

Actually the problem with temple run is that it is based on unity 3d engine.... and unity still doesn't supports ics.... the devs know the problem but they cannot do anything until unity gets android 4.0.3 support..

On wanamlite is there an option to hide or display am/pm or hide the clock on the status bar?

Temple run works just fine on stock ics, but freezes on cm9.

Same issue here. Temple run freezes almost every time. Running CM9 latest nightly.

Im on wanamlite since v11.1, never find a way to hide the clock. But there is a way to hide the PM/AM, just check the 24hour format setting..

Great that Temple runs works on stock ICS without freeze, how about riptide GP anyone tried that game on stock ICS roms?

Well,I've seen a looooot of problems with these custom roms ,gamewise, I haven't tried these games with stock ics though,I don't like stock ics that much so it really does suck that we can't play hd games,I'll give it a try and will come back as soon as I discover something new, let's help each other here, what do you guys think? I really want my sgs2 to be able to okay games, it sucks that having such an amazing phone we aren't able to play quality games, right?

I'm thinking he is talking about gaming experience in gingerbread. Cos this game does not support ICS and yet gameloft didn't released an ICS update for it. Btw ICS update for Asphalt 6 works smooth( not 100% smooth) when I overclock to 1.4ghz while it worked good at stock clocks in gingerbread :/

yes on ICS games are very laggy temple run Doesnt Seem to work perfectly either,, I moved to MIUI best ROM

[Q] Gingerbread or ICS

I have a Sony LWW, and i want to know which os is better. i have tried both and also some custom roms. The stock one en GB is really smooth and bug free, but the ICS features are reallu cool. ICS is kinda laggy on stock rom, and with custom rom it's ok, but not as good as GB. What do you recommend?
Gingerbread.
There are no point of flashing ics on our phone. Except custom ics rom I guess

Gingerbread of course!

ICS. I mean it depends, if you want your phone for gaming, then Gingerbread it's better for you. But I actually have new HD games installed on my phone, and they run pretty well. What I like more about ICS it's the UI. I think it's really nice. I also like it because of the task manager (when you long press the home button) it's really useful. But it's up to you, personally I would recommend you to upgrade to ICS. I hope Sony will release an update and correct some bugs, but I have some time using ICS, and it doesn't seem to be so laggy at all.
HD games like asphalt doesnt seem yo work on ics. Ics ui is way much better

I have Aphalt 7 (the newest) installed on my LWW with ICS, and it runs very smoothly...
I also have Modern Combat 3, N.O.V.A.3 and the Amazing Spider-Man running on my WT19 with ICS. No problems at all. :laugh:

FOR DOWNLOADING ASPHLAT 7 Search it on google. cant share u the link coz u already know why...!
ICS. Its running perfectly on my Live. after upgrade, if yours lags and performs slower, format SD card and repair firmware thru PCC.
ICS. Its look great and its fast

And about asphalt, I can't tell you because it's against the rules but search for it on google, it's already out and works great on my Live.
Thanks Man. I upgraded yo ics stock and i'm using The Xperia s launcher and apps. I've finally got my ics yo run smooth

I liked ICS, and i put the Galaxy sIII launcher, my cell run very smoothly
Vote for ics
Great features.. decent UI (better than GB), but one drawback is it lags while playing HD games (virtua tennis).. Other than that it's gr8!

Games Crashing on S3

i have recently downloaded Asphalt 7 & Real Racing 2 for my international variant s3. however, everytime i start these games....the game crashes before it even hits the menu.....can it be because i am running custom rom based on jelly bean leaks? i am currently running foxhound's latest 0.2 rom
Flash latest DLI6 Leak and you wont need a custom rom... Working flawless so far here!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
do games work properly on it?
The only time I've had problems with games was with custom kernels.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Yup, it´s probably because of the custom kernel.
those games may or may not be compatible with jb roms. so unless you havent changed anything in your rom you have to wait for an update if the problem is persistent
Oh ya.... Those supercharger scripts would also cause my games to run like crap or FC.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I'm running fox hound 1.4.3 ics, with galaxsih (normal) its superb, it runs better than the iphone version.
Supercharger does mess things up but seeing as your on jelly bean your kernel should be stock right. I don't think custom kernels are out for it yet.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
can anyone give me links to a proper working SD data for real racing 2? the 1s i downloaded just keeps crashing.... i changed roms & kernels but to no avail
i get this error m3g rr_track18.m3g break here.....
it works great on my phone. the only game i find laggy is the Brothers in Arms 2 where it takes so long to start, takes so long to load and takes so long to exit. and when it exits my live wallpaper just disappears and about 5sec redraw of drawer/home screen.
download real racing in samsung apps i downloaded mine there maybe it will work on you.
I am having the same issue with asphalt and MC3 on CM9 with stock cm kernel and siyah kernel.
I have seen on other threads that chainfire 3d might help but it says it's froyo/gingerbread only.
Any other suggestions? I'd rather keep cm but would like to play these games.

Im tellin ya there is something wrong with those foxhound jellybean roms. They never able to handle all my apps when I restore them all it always crashes the phone, freezes etc... Soon as I flash stock JB and root it with Siyah Kernel works perfect.

[Q]Games that Work on XXDLIB

I've recently shifted to Omega v27 and most Hi-Def , largely- sized {if that's actually a phrase} games that ran flawlessly on ICS are refusing to start up now. I'd just like to know what games actually run.
For now,
Modern Combat 3
Brothers in Arms 2
Nova 3
Dead Trigger
aren't working. Any clues on what to do for this or what alternatives I can look for?

Good question i just tried to install Nova3 on Foxhound 0.7 (XXDLIB)
I've got nova 3 and dead trigger on XXDLIB, but I'm on stock standard rom which has just been rooted. Both the games are working perfectly fine.
I've also used directory bind app and moved the data for these to have to external sd.
I've had no issues with either of those two games.

I'm not familiar with the directory bind app. What does it do?
this is the problem with custom roms.. they break compatibility with some apps.. thats why i swore to stay stock + rooted forever.. those games work perfectly on stock DLIB by the way..
directory bind is very helpful.. its in the themes and apps section of the SGS2.. i believe it was also posted in this section..

Omega isn't really a "custom" custom ROM. It's rooted, deodexed and zipalinged with a few REALLY really useful sprinkles here and there as far as I know. The rest is what we choose from Aroma. And I made sure I didn't change anything too much drastically. But all that apart, is there any huge game that universally works on all Sammy JB Builds and derivatives without issues?
those "useful sprinkles" often times cause some apps to break.. because it still changed something in the code..
and as far as "huge games" are concerned, here's a list of my games that are working in stock DLIB..
asphalt 7
the amazing spiderman
fifa 2012
nova3
modern combat 3
gangstar rio
max payne
eternal legacy
real racing 2
shadowgun
mass effect
final fantasy 3
virtua tennis
sonic 4 ep1 & ep2
the dark knight
heroes call
all of these and more, also worked on the last 5 JB leaks (DLI4 to DLI8) and the latest ICS firmware (BLH3).. usually, if a game doesn't work on a stock rom, then its an app issue and should be addressed by the developer..

Thanks for the list. The reason I asked was because I ran most of these games on both the leaked stock builds of JB as well as their Omega counterparts. This was the first time I came across this problem and hence the question.
I'll try these out. Thanks !
its got nothing to do with being on a custom rom - I'm on omega v27 also - dead trigger, modern combat 3 and nova 3 all work perfectly fine for me.
All I can suggest is to reinstall them :/

I know most of the custom ROM's include the transparency bug fix for the user interface.
Perhaps that is causing it? Am on latest Omega and I don't think it was included with the list of patches, but it is in there.
(Yes got all excited thought the bug was fixed on LIB, but no, the patch was there and not on the list of modifications eek)
Sorry can't comment on the games more, ain't been playing much. Do have a few of those non reported to work ones but. I'll get back if I figure them out.
Swyped on I9300 - XXDLIB - Siyah kernel - JKay & Thunderbolt tweaks.

[Q] aokp/aosp/cm gaming

Hi. Just wanna ask something. Is there any issues from the roms that is based on aokp/aosp/cm to the gaming? Because what i play is csr racing. When I play it on that roms, its a bit laggy. However when I play it on sammy based roms, it is so smooth. Same cpu governor settings. Already tried it on several aokp/aosp/cm based roms and all of them is same. Laggy on csr racing. The game is 3D.
