[Q] Slower games on JB? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi im new here but does JB limit the games performance?
dead trigger and my little pony lags a little
kingdoms of camelot has laggy scrolling in map
angry birds and bad piggies have this frame stutter
in ICS there is no lag or is it just me?
last used ICS is omega v9
jumped to JB omega 33.2 then 33.3 no v6supercharger used the siyahkernel still the same
did a full wipe twice still the same
everything is ok except the games is the games programmers made it more compatible in ICS than JB since it new and have to wait for updates?
can somebody else try?
considering going back to ICS since i use my phone much more on games

I play a lot of games in my JB'ned S III (stock, 4.1.2, rooted, CSC = XEU) and I don't think games are SLOWER on it than in ICS.
Some games are simply slow no matter where you play them. One such example is EA's Real Racing 2: the menu transitions are painfully slow.
Other games are blazing fast, list Gameloft's Modern Combat 3.
All in all, it think it's more of a perception than a fact, and in my perception, JB is a bit faster than ICS.

Don't think so. I used to install a lot of heavy games on my S3 and everything works just smooth, except for Avengers. I'm on stock JB rom.

gonna try the stock JB roms, before i try can any of you try kingdoms of camelot and try to scroll at the map if it looks laggy?

Like I wrote, sometimes it is just the games that are slow, and that has nothing to do with the ROM you're on.
There are good games and bad games, and none of the currently available games for Android benefit of our phone's 4 cores.

[Q] Best rom for Games?

I have noticed games run differently on some rom's for example on cyanogen mod battleheart 1.2 runs smoothly while on Gingerreal it crashes all the time, so which ROM would be best for gaming? thanks alot.
I usually dont play games on my phone but we all tried angry birds and i'd have to say it worked best when i used CM7, was really laggy at some points when running gb.
btw, wrong section
is CM7 really better at games?

Poor Performance 3D Games

hey guys..
Well i was wondering how is the 3d performance of games on your devices?
I am quite unsatisfied with the performance of S2..mainly in 3d gaming..
Though most of the games run flawlessly.. but the open world games lag quite a lot on s2..
I have seen considerable fps drops at few places in open world 3d games like :
1. Gangstar rio city
2. The dark knight rises
3. amazing spiderman
4. gta3
5 backstab etc..
So i would just like to know that the others are facing this problem too? or is it my phone only? or could be my rom/kernel combination reducing my 3d performance?
Currently i am on neatrom lite with siyah 3.2
Again i want to mention that the games usually work good with proper fps..but at many places like when lots of builidings and stuff are there...there is quite a big fps drop while rotating camera or moving ..
Please guys do mention about your 3d performances..i am quite FRUSTRATED AND ANNOYED at my phone's behaviour..such a hyped phone and not givin satisfactory performance..
thanks
The games in your list i tried is gangstar rio and gta 3. In gta3 it doesn't lag at all while in gangstar rio, it lags alot because as someone posted (forgot where it was) the game was not optimized for our device. Bdw, running stock XWLPO with siyah 3.5.2.

well i am a bit bothered..even in case of mutant roadkill..the starting scene (where the car jumps out ) is also slightly slow..
Plus the open world games like dark knight, spiderman etc lag a lot.. :|

[Q] Slow Galaxy Tab 10.1 Performance

Hello.
i am using my galaxy tab lately, but noticed it had unbelivably slow performance in games like modern combat 3, asphalt 7, and even Sonic 4 Episode 2 and BIT TRIP BEAT, and shown many apps in the playstore as being incompatible. after testing lots of roms, i decided to put a jellybean 4.1.2 rom on it and overclock. although more apps are shown as compatible with it, the device still performs poorly in a lot of 2d and 3d games. tried to live with it, but when i saw that the official (physical) samsung keyboard that i got it with it (connects through charging port) which was recognised by stock hc and ics is now recognised by it as a timer (wtf), i decided i must find a better rom. been looking for weeks by now. i will appreciate any suggestion from you to a fast performing, battery efficient and highly compatible rom and kernel combination that i could use on my device that you have tested and can recommend.
Thank you, E.
I like both the aokp and cm10 4.2 jb roms.
It could be some of the games you are playing, not all developers try hard. Nfs most wanted has amazing graphics and plays great, I have had other games with Nintendo graphics that don't run smooth.

[Q]ICS Performance Problem (Xperia U)

Hi,
I have an Xperia u, with unlocked bootloader. 2 years ago i bought asphalt 7 from play store...i saw a lot of videos on youtube, and the game was smooth and with no lags.
I was on stock ICS. Installed the game, something like unplayable, especially on night maps. Installed CM 9.1(fxp 202), and same thing.
I am now on GB (Brains 03) and the game goes smooth like butter.
Is it normal to have this huge difference between ics and gb?

everything is possible coz ICS and GB are both different versions of Android and ICS is more heavy w.r.t GB........

[Q] My phone is very slow no matter what rom and kernel I flash

As in topic i checked many,many 4.1.2 roms and even leaked 4.2.2 still i have lags in any 3d game.
Tried Perseus kernel as well as Siyah and more others.
In every combination this phone has massive lags on 3d games. 2d games run just perfect.
Tried every solution possible to free up ram and increase performance but nothing works.
Even stock roms lag on my international gt-i9300
Please XDA Community! Help me.
-------EDIT-------
As i checked 3d benchmarks i see there is massive lag in repetetive form.
Something like this:
1sec 50 fps
2-3sec 20fps
and back to 1sec 50fps
Checked in Quadrant,Antutu,3dmark
What games?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Asphalt 7, Shadowgun, Gangstar (all of them), Nova, All gameloft other games.
And even something like Beach Buggy Blitz (almost no quaility graphics)
The lag seems to occur more frequently when i turn through streets in example gangstar, when device loads up textures or stuff...
Did you every try games immediately after fresh flash?
For example, wipe, flash rom, set up wizard, install game, play game?

Just before writing this post i have flashed 4.1.2 rom and siyah kernel. Full wipe and everything. Even in system options i downed running applications to 1 and lagg is still visible as before.
Now i noticed every 10 seconds there is massive lag that drops down to something like 5fps fo 3 sec
------edit-------
even my gt-i9000 works better in these games
That's pretty drastic. I'm not much of a gamer but I have some of the games you mentioned and never had this problem. I'm not sure what the solution is.
What other kernels have you tried? Perseus and siyah both change GPU stepping.
Do you ever find lags or freezes outside of games?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I have lags only in 3d games. 2d games work like charm. Only once have keyboard lag. Do you think its hardware issue?
I have tried many more kernels and cant remember them all now. But tried every kernel i saw in developement page.
For ROMS i was using PardusROM, Android revolution( both 4.1.2 and 4.2.2) and some other like paranoid android
Downloading now RevivaROMv1. I will tell you how it works in 40 mins
------edit-----
I thinks it's a kind of miracle. I did not flash this rom yesterday, but when i woke up, for last time i wanted to check and somewhat it all games run great with no lags. But there are still same lags in benchmarks. Dunno...
