Nova3 is tearing, mc3 the same, gta3 with high details too.
What is wrong with this phone? I have stock ICS, did a wipe. Sd card class 10 sandisk mobile ultra. On gingerbread it was the same, even on roms with 1,8ghz OC.
On htc Sensation this game is fluid, so wtf?
Any help? Ppl say that on their evo there is no lag or tearing.
Oops, I never try any high quality 3D game on my androidphone. I only play the games like temple run doodle god etc. I dont care about game performance on cellphone because the size of screen is only 4.3......If I really want to play game, I will enjoy it with my xbox360 and 46``HDTV

i had GTA 3 on GB,ICS Sense 3.6 and ICS Sense 4.0.it was zero lag.like on a game console.
The thing that pissed me off is that ppl say there is no problem with MC3 and nova3. On my phone there are problems. So may it be that my phone has worse sillicon and drops framerate etc.
On console you dont have gyroscope, and i dont like console games. I like android ones.

With the latest ICS the phone can barely manage 2000 quadrant, so top end games are always going to lag. Even temple run stops and starts and lags sometimes for me, not to mention the crappy crackling sound.
..forcing dual core and setting the governor to performance helps a bit, but it's still not up to par where an S3 should be.
But I know it's possible since on my GSM version when putting some of the old GB mui based roms on I could get 4000+ quadrants with a bit of overclocking and games ran noticeably better.
My guess is because the screen is 3D capable it's not as efficient as other phones even when running in 2D, so HTC throttled the crap out the cpu/gpu/mem-bandwidth to equalise the battery drain.

Some ppl complain at ICS performance in games. Benchmarks dont tell **** cause every phone has lower scores at ICS I think. Look at galaxy nexus.
With this screen thing its interesting, but for me either my phone is faulty, or there are some drivers issues. I have 5+5 mpix gsm version, so that maybe its worse or sth.

Forcing dual core?how? Do you mean our dual core processers only work under one core?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda app-developers app

zcink said:
by default the way its supposed to work is, the first core is always on, running to run apps and system. The second core is supposed to kick in on demand. When what you are running demands more, the second core is supposed to kick in.
This worked well on GB roms because thats the way they wrote the code. It was designed that way.
On ICS roms, there are ways to turn on both cores. There is a patch. There are some apps. The best one I've found is system tuner pro. You can set it to turn on both cores on completed boot and they will always be on.
This kicks up the performance of the phone significantly. However, there goes your precious battery life.
The EVO 3D has a pretty powerful dual core processor. Without it, the 3D would be totally useless.

Thanks for your explanation. But I am still confused about one thing. Do you mean the cellphone running ICS rom tuns on both of two cores when it completes boot? And no matter what I run, it always keep dual core running? If it was, the cellphone would spend more energy than GB rom.and generates more heat.....

zcink said:
That all depends on what rom you are using. Some developers have init.d edited to where both cores are always on. Or they've applied the patch to do so. By default, ICS is supposed to do the same as GB where the first core is on and the second is supposed to kick in on demand. I just feel that GB did a better job at managing it this way.
Chad Goodman always recommended turning on both cores and leaving them on in ICS as you will always get the best performance possible. Personally I like the option to turn em on if I want to with system tuner pro or leave only the first core on to save on battery life.
Chad had a very good explanation of this - how it works - even how to edit the file yourself. I just did a search for it and it appears to be gone.

But these games should work nice on stock. See the htc sensation which has the same hardware. Many ppl say it runs games much better than evo. Games that I play the most often are mc3, nova3, gta3. They should work nice on evo, as they run ok on single core phones.

If you won't miss the much better screen of the Fascinate, the Play is a very good choice. It has a very solid Interface without much fluff, is developer-friendly, has awesome gaming controls, solid (not great) cameras and good GPS. The screen however isn't all that great. It has good colors, but the maximum brightness is pretty crappy, it's not very visible in sunlight and the picture sometimes 'drags' a little. Nothing that would ruin the run, but it's noticeable.

I agree, the play is great for gaming but it is lacking in power compared to some of the latest phones.
My buddy got a free play and let me play with it 4 a night. If your a gamer, the controller is a serious selling point. On my desire hd, gaming is fun but touch screen sucks. On the play, I was loving gaming. Played ocarina of time. Set the controls to hardware and left the c buttons on screen. Ran smooth too. Same with final fantasy 9 on fpse. No lag at all. I get lag on my desire hd which is overall a better phone spec wise
Maybe it has a better video card? Or its optimized 4 gaming so specs mean nothing.

i have a desire HD too and agree GPU performance is better on the play, quallcomm said it developed more mature adreno drivers for the play, maybe once the play is hacked, a dev like snq could port the play drivers to the DHD
Adding in another yes, mine just came in the mail today. After spending the night with it I am absolutely pleased with my purchase. Finally, I can game properly on my phone. It's a really responsive phone, too. Gingerbread is snappy on this thing.
Yes!
Play is a really good phone, I love it`s controls and on stock firmware it really is good unlike with some other phones I have had where I just wanted to change to a custom rom because of them being boring or buggy.
Play may not have as powerful a processor as some other smart phones, but it`s gpu makes up for it and gives the power it needs for great gaming.
Sony do need to get their asses in gear for the Playstation releases though, right now their line up is crap and not getting much update.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Speed is relative. This phone is wicked.
BANG! from my shooter...
The EVO 3D has more RAM than the Sensation so it will be faster. I have not noticed any lag what so ever. I performed both OTA updates.
1.2ghz dual core... it will be faster for just about everything than any other phone on the market (well, it will be equivalent to the other dc phones out there...). I messed around with it for about a half hour at the sprint store just now and it seemed snappier than my oc tmo g2 running at 1.5ghz, which is saying something.
Sounds great cant wait till tommerow I know the ram thing but they are saying some phone are running better then others and they have 2 differnt screens

Faster than any phone I've used so far, or any Android-based tablet.
Slower than my gaming rig.
It's faster than my overclocked Asus Transformer. Yes that's running honeycomb and higher res.
I can open the full espn.com with all flash turned on and it scrolls smoothly and as one review yesterday pointed out you never see the checkerboards it's that fast. When I first activated it and put my google account on I was showing my bro how fast it was (we both have Evos) and we both realized this was much faster, then after that I go to market and realized the whole time I was showing him that the phone was downloading and installing apps, needless to say it was even quicker at opening apps up once that was done.

I downloaded Dungeon Defenders today, rebooted my phone, loaded the game, and it crashes every time I try to play it for more than 5 minutes or so. The game runs veryyy smooth thanks to our processors and GPU speed, but it simply crashes for no reason at random times. Anyone else have this problem?
I'm having the same problem, and I really want to play this game lol.
Trendyent recognizes the problem and says they are trying to fix it but I don't see a fix soon =(
yup same problem here, i emailed them about it and they said they are trying to get a couple units from HTC to test on. They had me send a logcat of the crash. so hopefully that will help.
I think that game is made only for Tegra 2 phones
I have the same issue with Dungeon Defenders and lots of other apps. At first I thought it was the phone, so exchanged it. 3rd one is doing the samething.
Dang, at least I'm not the only one having problems. I know it isn't Tegra 2 exclusive because the Desire HD, Droid 2, etc. are supported and same with even the OGVO. It's also a problem with our sister phone, the Sensation. I hope they patch this soon because when it was running on my phone it was siiiilky smooth.

Have you heard the horror stories of how gameloft treats its employees?
Obviously a company like that isn't worried about making a game work on more devices. Its about making new games to sell for higher price.
i dont think it's the game's fault. I think its more likely to be an issue with the phone's rom. whilst the phone has 1gb of ram (dundef only needs 256) the new sense 3.0 uses up wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much memory. I mean. With ALL my apps killed (as many as possible) there is still only about 200-300mb of ram free(this is on a custom rom as well). On stock roms i remeber i only got less than 200mb of free ram and htc has made sure the oom lowkiller will not kill any sense stuff(launcher, lockscreen and so forth).
so maybe the oom lowkiller is killing dungeondefenders.
Woww. I forgot about this game.

Hey guys, I have an idea! If your phone gets too hot, you can move to Canada/Russia! Isn't that neat! Joking aside, if it gets hot, you should let it cool down because you don't want something to explode. I'm thinking that it's mostly the GPU because the CPU rarely shows use during light activities like browsing so something could be up. However, for me, my phone only gets hot when I'm playing minecraft mobile for some reason.
