As I cant post in the dev section I'll try here...
I was wondering if any modded ICS roms have the modded GPU driver of the Adreno 220?
It seems it made a difference (could be just a benchmarking side effect though) of a couple of phones using the Adreno 220 GPU...
Would be cool if someone could include it in some ROM or maybe make a optional addon for rooted ICS ones?
Here is the link to one of the theese modified ICS drivers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631223
Speaking of drivers i also wonder whatever it's possible to unlock GLONASS support.
such driver would be welcomed
I ran Quadrant and got
Force GPU rendering (2D) not selected:

I have rooted Android 4.0.3 S7-301uV100R002C232B002
Do you guys achieve better results with other roms?

How come your score is so high? How did you do that? I use the same ROM. and my score much below yours. Especially my CPU score is only 23xx.

Only use launcher that natively based on ICS like Nova and Apex, other than that it'll slow your device down (in my case).
hey guys

hi there! I have been wondering what this means too.
What are the effects of having HWcomposer not working? Laggy graphics?
Force GPU rendering isn't enabled by default, so how will this impact performance? Battery life?
Thanks!
According to the HW composer link HW composer is there since Honeycomb so how is it a JB enhancement all of a sudden?
So, SurfaceFlinger in Android is what actually puts together the different screens and surfaces, using OpenGL (the GPU).
Hardware Composer (HWC) is a little module that plugs into SurfaceFlinger, and helps offload some of the surface compositing onto specialized display hardware. Usually this is just a 2D GPU, but sometimes graphics parts have special "overlay" planes that can be used, instead. This lightens the GPU load in several ways, potentially improving performance.
It's been present since Honeycomb, but the API is updated once in a while to support more features. The [Android Sync infrastructure] was added in JB MR1, and requires a whole bunch of new APIs to be implemented for this explicit synchronization. It also relies on some Linux kernel APIs which are only present in v3.4+.

Hi all, I would like to have opinion from you guys.
Under Development Settings, There Is a Force GPU rendering option
Force GPU Rendering []
Use 2D hardware acceleration in applications
Is it good to enable it or not ?
Some of my friends say Yes, some say No.
Well, I would like to have opinion from you guys now

Graphics are handled in one of two ways, "software", which means the primary CPU does the heavy lifting, and "hardware" which means the GPU does the lifting. Hardware rendering is better because it frees up CPU clock cycles for other stuff, so the phone moves faster/smoother (plus GPUs are designed to excel at the types of calculations graphic intensive applications do). This feature supposedly forces programs to use the GPU to paint 2D objects on the screen (2D was previously unsupported, so most apps and the base UI were software accelerated, 3D should be hardware by default), but it can cause crashing, bugginess.
Devs have the option to enable hardware acceleration with a simple line of code (according to Google at least.) If they choose to enable it, the app will be hardware accelerated regardless of what you set in there.

Thanks for your info, mate
So that's why some app behaves weirdly, right?
My camera behaves weirdly. And the black background of apps tends to have a white gradient from bottom up.
so, you enable it or not?
Your Sound Mod rocks too, waiting for Clear Audio+

Are you using Chainfire3D?
You can try to compare and contrast with GPU rendering on and off.
Eg the back ground of root explorer. There will be LIGHT WHITE GRADIENT from bottom up.
No, I'm not using ChainFire3D. But I've tried it before. It ruins my graphics, games don't function properly even.

Hey guys...
I can't help but notice fps/crack/lag/stutter when i scroll through settings and i think it's time i share this because no matter what i do it's still there.
When i'm in the launcher,everything's so smooth but in settings it's bad..especially when comparing to cm10/10.1 where scrolling through settings is a breeze...
Have anyone else noticed this?How did you fix it?
Thanks.
Btw i'm on Ultima 8.1.2 and [email protected] cpu+640mhz gpu but it doesn't matter really,the kernel/rom combo doesn't affect this.

Try activating "disable hw overlays" and "force gpu rendering" from developer options....it helps me...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
You want the settings for best smoothness?
1.install siyah
2.change governor to lulzactiveq andchange scheduler to cfq
3.enable gpu rendering + disable hardware overlay in developer options.
4.set the minimum gpu clock to 266mhz in stweaks.
5.set touch boost to 1000 mhz in stweaks.
Now I guarantee you an ultra smooth experience.
Note : disable/kill media scanner or downloads provider service if it's using too much cpu.

Bala, is it not idiotic n funny to do all the above even after paying £400.00 / rs.30k to actually buy the damn phone itself.. The reason we paid so much to Samsung was to make all d above and we use it straight away out of d box...

Wrong you are not wanted .
Do you not give a thought for XDA Developeres forum and mods that have to move countless wrongly posted items .
Just because you don't want them in the correct section and is totally against what XDA exists for its not some fix my phone forum that you and other school-kids can mess about with .
No wonder so many senior experienced members steer clear of this forum .

And what does this have to do with the topic? You can lock the CPU to 1400MHz and the GPU to 800MHz, kill your battery, and it will still lag in the aforementioned situation.
If you actually pay attention while scrolling in the Setting page, you will see that the lag/hickup will only happen once any of the On/Off switches come into display and get rendered, if you scroll without any of the switches in view it will be smooth. I can already imagine what causes this; they're fetching the status of the switches in the rendering thread and it simply causes an overhead on the rendering fluidity. No matter what you do you won't be able to get rid of that design problem. Hundreds of other apps are completely fluid in the meantime.

Nice find AndreiLux.
I really didn't think it was a kernel or settings issue because i run at 200-1704 for cpu and 266-640 for gpu both with reasonable scaling settings so i think i'm fine.
Also true,in almost any other app everything is smooth as it should be...
So in conclusion a dev or sammy must fix the settings apk not to lag?

The settings need to be reprogrammed. I tried to get rid of that lag because I thought it was because of the kernel, but then I saw that it only happens when the switches come into display. It's stupid but you don't do anything about it. I don't even know if AOSP has the same issue or if it's a Samsung thing.
It's the same problem as with Tapatalk, it's a badly designed pile of crap and that's why it's so laggy, no matter the performance of your phone.
Take Flipboard, Reddit News, much more complex apps, but they are properly coded and thus fluid.
@Bala
It's ok man...
@Andreilux and all
I see...
I think on AOSP scrolling is smoother in settings..
Anyone to confirm this?
What should we do now?
Report to sammy?Ask an experienced developer to try to fix it?

What i have found FIXES this issue is to run a LIVE WALLPAPER not a very graphic intensive one, but something like phase beam, or nexus 4 LWP. What this does is, it keeps the CPU fresh and instantly ready to render. Try it if you don't believe me.
download this LWP just for a test: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...2lkd2FzYWJpLmxpdmV3YWxscGFwZXIubmV4dXNkb3QiXQ.. and in settings put everything on MAX. and set the LWP. Now go try to find some lag

This removes the software gfx rendering pathway I.e configured in libGLES_android.so and makes use of gives priority to hardware gfx rendering i.e the GPU u have in some cases software rendering is faster than hardware rendering but since I personally prefer hardware rendering I made this mod so others can use it to to avoid hassle. Simply flash and notice faster better animation in UI and gaming.

I don't see any point doing such experiment because you will not notice any latency issue on daily bases expect in high end FPS gaming... If your concerned about the rumours about our device latency I can assure you it'll be fixed with a firmware update idk why Xiaomi is lazy to provide us the fix already!

Even the magisk manager has a downloadable module called GPU turbo boost.. but nothing is happening.. it seems as if it has placebo effect.. just a waste of space.. so your app works differently??? Im currently having issues playing nba 2k18 after some time..
