> what you called lags are probably screen tearing due to ics kernel's set vsync to off to get a smoother ui.

I use genetICS as a daily driver with chainfire 3d and caf kernel and gaming for me is pretty relaxed..than again I'm not really into gaming. I'll occasionally play a game so when I do, I have a good kernel with chainfire and a high OC setting of 768/480 noop performance

GB continues being the right option to play games.

At least on my side, GB uses less ram than ICS. I also think the kernels also make a difference. There's a lot of "gaming" kernels for GB (my choice would either be PP 1.7 or franco's) while you only have two kernels for ICS, both of which do not seem to be tailored for gaming.

not actually, both the kernels(CAF and DJNOxD's) on ICS are vsync off only

Thats exactly what Neko said.Vsync off gives u smooth ui,but screen tearing.

Well, I couldn't really tell because I'm not a phone gamer (I play Switch, Angry Birds and other things to kill time), but it's not that bad. Switch is veeery smooth, Angry Birds doesn't lag at all, so... I would say it's bad for gaming. Maybe only for games that need a lot of RAM.
PD: In GB y had OC and used CF3D, and still some games were kind of slow compared to ICS. So, that's it: if we had some more RAM, maybe... who knows?

angry birds lags

i just want to know if im the only one who experiences lags with angry birds rio and if i can do something to fix it
I dont have any lag by angry birds. What rom are you using?
Put your phone to airplane mode. It will get rid of those nasty CPU intensive ads. It'll be 100% better.

you could use AdFree app from the market but you should have superuser access..
Free up some of your ram before playing and oc will also help

What I have noticed myself if the black screen (screensaver) activates and you take it out, it'll lag until you restart the program. I figured it was a bug with Angry Birds. If you restart it over again, it'll be lag free until the screen goes black again.
Its nothing to worry about,everybody has this problem.First,root your phone.Then,install Adfree,this will help you a bit.Then,flash CM or Ice cream Sunday 2 and lags will be a thing of the future
when i play angry birds i play with no internet and im using rooted stock but for cpu boost im using SetCpu at max 800/800 and ram manager at max and Speed Boost and autokiller memory optimizer at max and many more boosts but still i lag on angry birds

Which ROM?
Ace is just too slow, CyanogenMod makes it quite faster, but cant change the fact that most current games are designed for more powerfull devices.

Yes, but which one?
its 2.3.3 KP7
Ace dosn't have a very good hardware to play, use a custom rom based on Cyanogenmod and if you want better gameplay you can overclock your CPU a little.
I think ICE Cream Sunday 2 it's the fastest rom at the moment for ace (I don't tested it yet), another good rom is GingercruztV2.3, It has OC kernel, and looks very nice
I have my SGA unrooted and repaired with JTAG and I had lag first days of using it but then its normal as always

This obviously is not a problem if I don't experience lag, stock or CM7.1.
There is the bug with the screensaver kicking in though.

Flash a more powerful rom like cm7 or ics2 and you wouldnt have any lag at all.
Stock lags,there is no cure :/

how to run GTA3

Hello,
i see much videos that people play gta 3 really smooth on the x10 or play/neo (that phones are kinda the same) but on my device it laggs like hell :S i have doomlords kernel with 1,200 Mhz + and Feralab 4.0.
who knows what they did, but our gpu is waaaayy too weak to run a game like gta3, besides the neo and play have newer snapdragon chipsets and better gpu's....also there is a bug in the chipset driver which decreases gpu performance when cpu performance is increased...........anyway.... dont get too excited.... it will always lag...
with cyanogenmod 9 run very smooth

Not all games. Games that are not optimised for ICS only have issues.. Others run fine. Infact even better
ugghh that sucks... currently using bboof's hybrom v17.. but he QUIT. lol. I rmb stock .52 played temple run WITHOUT lag. Even hyrbom lags and ive not tried any rom that doesnt lag when playing temple run..

Anyone who tells you ICS is good for gaming-wise, well, they aren't that wise after all *no offense
What I would recommend is CM7.2, since it's GB and it's Cyanogen, it offers more Performance than normal GB did, it support Swap or zRam too which is ideal for gaming too. If you miss ICS animation, no worries, they've port-ed it to CM7.2
I just want people to share -.- . What do they think.
If you want to play games on ICS, Jelly Bean driver is a must. It improves a lot FPS. :good:
I have tried almost every rom here and tried to play games after i installed all my apps (only 30 apps including games). The only rom i have tried that has no problem on playing temple run is the nxtbread rom, a gb based rom. I only play temple run and subway surfer so i don't have any idea on other games. 2nd best rom for gaming for me is the good old cm9. Maybe cm7 will be better but i haven't tried it. But sadly even on the nxtbread rom, it lags on subway surfer.
Sent from my ST25i
Oh and by the way, i used aire's gb kernel on nxtbread and sirkay's latest 587 kernel on ics roms. I oc to 1.4ghz, performance gov and tried every io scheduler available too.
Well i am the creator of my rom so of course i am going to recommend mine. But I have tons of games on my phone(40) including asphalt 7 Nova 3 and NFS most wanted and all are runing smooth on OptiKernel preformance(xKernel 9.587 - c) and i use smatrassv2 cfq and 1017Mhz

[Q]Gaming lag preformance

Hello guys
Im runing arhd 17.1 with presus kernel
Iv been playing asphalt 7 and modern combat 4
There is alots of lagging in some stages and some framedrops
(I have 500 ram free and im not using any overclock or anything like that)
I was wondering is there is any way to make the games runs smoothly without any lag cuz iv seen some galaxy s3 devices runing it with no lag !
Is it a rom problem or a Kernel problem with those games what should i do to get rid off the lag
Thanks alot guys in advance
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Can't say for sure if it's the rom or the kernel as I don't use them. I'm on omega v35, siyah 1.8.4. CPU to 1.6ghz, GPU to 600mhz. Both uved appropriately. No lag in both games.
Try oc your gpu if your kernel supports it?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
MC4 works great for me..
One trick.
Get rid of some apps that you don't use.
Go to settings > applications and see running services. See which apps take too much ram and uninstall them.
Get the Siyah Kernel. Open STweaks. OverClock.
Use a rom with the no bloatware feature or option in aroma.
Your games will run perfect then.

Honestly the best combination i've used for gaming has been foxhound coupled with GalaxSih's kernel using supercharger v6 and no ram tweaks.
Every single game i have thrown at it it has dealt with with ease.
Real Racing 2 on a complex levels is a good test to see how stable your phone is, and again FH with Galaxsih just eats it.
There are probably other combinations out there but i've found a great combo and i'm happy with it.
Hope this helps.
