I have tried many roms, from GB to ICS but I always feel unsatisfied. Cause some laggy, so can you tell me which is the best rom and kernel for gaming on my vibrant?
no rom is exclusive for gaming .......btw if the available ram is more u might feel less lag ....I run iczen with latest subzero kernel and I play games like mass effect and real football and I never felt the lag my available ram is exactly 384 MB .......

Hey guys
This question is mainly aimed at gaming freaks who have also switched to custom roms.
Just wanna know how is the gaming performance (generally 3d games) on various roms like Resurrection remix, ics slim ,cm9, miui etc..
I saw in various threads that many 3d games lag more on such roms (at stock cpu/gpu settings)? Is it true? Coz if it is, then this is totally a deal buster for me..i was excited to flash RR but if games are lagging...there wont be any use of improved system performance lol on a custom rom
anyway guys do let me know the gaming problems with any of the popular roms..so i can make up my mind and finally flash a custom rom..
thanks

i am on latest version of ressurection remix and i fell no such problem.i use no tweaking like overclocking etc...{i hate all these things}}
Cm9/aokp I get the best graphics performance. I actually under clock my CPU for a longer battery life... and its just still as good if not better than stock.

Games like Dead trigger, NOVA 3, shadowgun, Modern Combat 3 - lots of framerate issues on ICS custom rom. I never had issues on GB and never stayed on samsung ICS long enough to find out what that was like. Mundane tasks showed that it sucked balls, so I seriously doubt that it would be any different with intensive tasks like gaming.
I'd venture a guess that CM9 kernel is probably better than the majority of ICS kernels. My experience is that it just works alot better in general - other kernels have a lot of bells and wistles but other than some cool novelty feature, really aren't very different from each other. CM9's kernel really stands out for me. I have however heard good things about Fluxi kernel. I made the switch but it was much worse unfortunately others may have a different experience though.
The lag spikes seem to be random aswell, so I have my doubts any overclocking would help. If it happened in sequences with big open fields and lots of enemies on screen I'd understand, but when you are in a small corrider with no-one around, I can't think of why it should do it then. Not to mention it was seemless on stock GB (actually Villian ROM 3.0 and Redpill kernel).
But I've got CM9 running exactly how I want it and its stock CM9 kernel is actually pretty good, the games are good to play on it, but you do get annoying lag spikes somewhat frequently.
Hi
I use a lot of AOSP/AOKP roms with custom kernels. I always OC CPU ang GPU but I can't feel a good performance in games. For example I can't play Asphalt 7. I have about 30 fps or less.
I tested a lot of kernels but always get the same (or similar) results.
But when I look at benchmark score for Sammy rom I am confused. I know it's only benchmark but there a huge difference.
I don't have time to test this roms, so maybe someone can help me.
Are sammy roms better for games? Or it's only difference in benchmark?
AOSP is better in games.
Hello guys, I wonder if there is any custom rom for Xperia Neo V, which run the games without any lag, or at least with minimum of lags.
sorry for bad english!

I haven't really tested much but as far as I know it goes like GB(Codename 9, X-GAMER) > JB(CM10, AOKP) > ICS
Imo ICS is the least optimised for gaming, but bear in mind that I haven't really done any real benchmarks so I might be wrong on this, someone should back me up first
of course GB i better for gaming but i dont have mush problem with ICS:good:
GB are the best for gaming man
u can try codename he's fast n
Stable
Of course GB because is lighter than ICS
For all the fools answers (not eveyone)
He asked ICS AND JELLY BEAN! NO GINGERBREAD.
I really dont know which one is fastest but bear in mind that JB needs more ram, and has many bugs.
it depends...
well of course it depends on what kind of games are you playing...as guys/girls said JB uses more ram and its still under development, but if you have nice tuned ics its definetely better...i sugest you to take a day off for your phone and just try roms...it cant hurt and you will find the rom that suits you best
gb, ics generates as many compatibility problems or close by themselves.
apart gives you more free RAM
there are many ICS custom roms that good for games

CM9 , i.e. ICS and Jelly sandwich are pretty good RAMwise, and therefore good for playing games.
Moreover if you want a lag free gaming, close all background running apps before running games, as 512 MB is never enough RAM for gaming.

Hi, i'm using one of the best roms for Xperia Neo, the AC rom (used to be PAC) the one ported by Kormatoes. But i'm getting a little lag when gaming, just installed vce city and even with low graphics i get lag sometimes. So i want to know what can i do to reduce this lag.
I changed the governor to performance (don't know if it's the best), and OC to 1.4 GHz, closed all apps before gaming. What else can i do?

Vice City is a pretty heavy game and it won't run on our devices smoothly, especially if you're on ICS/JB ROM.. Both are RAM hungry and therefore not enough RAM would be there for you to play!
If you love heavy games I recommend you to switch to GB ROMS..
I know that GB roms are lighter than ICS or JB, but how lighter they are? You think just the rom will make a big difference or there should another thing to do? What about the governor?

ROM definitely makes a big difference..
Try playing games on both GB and ICS and then try to compare between the two!

Well i would like to get the best performance without changing the rom. I think the AC ROM is well tweaked and maybe as lighter as a GB rom. Just want to know the best configuration (CPU governor, I/O) to get less lag. Should i restart the phone before playing too?
Hi xda. Can anyone tell me the best s3 rom ? I tryed note 4 , 5 roms but they are laggy. They lag often. Can you please tell me a good rom without lags and with few ram consumption and best performance?
Try Archidroid 3.0.2 (KK) with archikernel.
Try Liquid Smooth KK rom with boeffla kernel
Go for cm13+boeffla. It gets a bit laggy at menus but pretty fast at most games, even Modern Combat 5 works flawlessly. But my combination right now is:
RR ROM (Marshmallow)+670MB Z-RAM+ MAX ENTROPY+ GREENIFY that also helps stop those RAM hoggers.
It gives me an gaming experience like no other with 450MB+ free RAM at best times.
Ram is always filled by android. Task managers slow your device down by closing apps that android wants open. Greenify and the likes are a waste of cpu and storage. They do NOTHING. (before you say they do work, prove it).
Anyway, stock roms are the smoothest roms because they are tweaked by the carrier/mfg for best performance vs longevity. All customs roms will have bugs or give random reboots caused by oom errors.
