Ok right now I have a US 4.0 player and I'm currently running the stock rom. It runs fairly smoothly and I get a Quadrant score of just 1264. Previously I have successfully rooted it, installed Terrasilent kernel 1.3.5. I then installed EtherealRom 2.4. But I noticed that the player did not run smoothly at all, even though I got a slightly higher Quadrant score of 1330ish. I then went back to stock and things again ran smoothly even at the lower Quadrant score. So I rooted it again and installed Terrasilent kernel again. I then installed the Icy Fusion V2.3 rom. Again the player really lagged even through I was getting a higher Quadrant score than stock. When playing music through Poweramp doing anything else at all makes it stutter like crazy. And I tried other music players with the same result. Even scrolling through the screens get's all laggy when nothing is running. All I really use my player for is music, gps, surfing the web and reading rss articles. I don't play any games on it. I have tried switching to Ext4 and that didn't help either. Does anyone have any idea why using a custom kernel and rom makes it run so much crappier than stock? I know other people are getting it to run good with the custom rom and kernel. I'm just not sure what to try to get the same results as others.
I'm no expert on ROMs but remember stock has everything working like HW acceleration so that might be it. And also ICS is more demanding the 2.3 so it could be that. For me stock wasn't smooth at all.

Thanks for the response, but I'm pretty sure that both the roms I tried are both 2.3 variants, not ICS.
I tried flashing Terrasilent and Icy Fusion again and kept it overnight to see if anything needed time to process in the background. But as of today it is still running as before, very laggy and choppy.
Hanthesolo has some i9000 ports to the galaxy player 4 that worked very good for me.

Most of the time ROMs don't run as smooth as the original stock one. However, I used both Ethereal and IcyFusion and I haven't seen much lag on either. You should try bumping up the min clock speed to 400mhz or 800mhz, and keeping the max clock speed at 1000mhz. Also I listen to PowerAmp, while using Voodoo Amplifier, DSP Manager, and emulating genesis/snes games at a clock speed of 800mhz to 1000 mhz and I only see micro lag at best. Sometimes you might have too many background apps running on the player, so I would go to task manager and if you see that is 300mb or more for ram usage then that's why the player is lagging.
I use icy fusion along with terrasilent and had same results until I installed autokiller memory optimizer. I have it set to extreme. Smooth as butter now. I also have min set to 400 and max set to 1000 using set CPU.

I just tried out alpha 4 of CM10 on my player 5.0
I did not overclock that
but it is quite smooth for UI animations/transitions.
Maybe because it is Jelly Bean
5.0 and 4.0 has the same hardware, why is it that 5.0 is smoother than 4.0?
Thanks for the tips guys! It was a memory issue I guess. Not sure why stock handled it better, but once I installed a task killer things smoothed right out in the Ethereal rom.
I will switch to an ICS rom once they get that camera figured out. I know the 4.0 camera isn't great, but I use it a lot.
My friend told me that it is best to stick with CM7 because it does not have ad many bugs as CM9 or CM10

I use daily on GP 5.0 chip rom with adw launcher on 1.5 ghz and V6 supercharged...its so much smoother than stock that cant compare.

Also I just wanted to add that I've tried every launcher available on the market and the best running one for me is launcher pro. Everyone said its old and outdated but hands down, its been the best launcher in terms of performance. The only thing that has come close is the new smart launcher. But it needs a few things added in features for me to use it every day. Good luck.

I noticed that the stock rom on 5.0 runs better than the custom gingerbread rom we have.
You should try an ICS rom. Yes, the camera doesn't work, but you have a Turbocharged device with amazing battery life.
The camera on the 5.0 is pretty ****ty, so i don't care about it.
Also, in Gingerbead, transitions and animations are done by the CPU, while in ICS, GPU does the job. Thats why ICS is 1000000x smoother than Ginberbread on Player 5.0
And with ICS, i don't lose any battery percentage at night, basically you have 5x standby time.
And the RAM managment on ICS is much better, i never noticed any jaggies or lag on my player since i put RemICS on it. :good:
Hey guys I just got NFS: Most Wanted on the ATT Note. The gameplay and the controls are great but the game sort runs in slowmo. Anybody else getting different performance in other ROMS?
I'm running flapjaxx's AOSP ICS rom W/ GPU OC and CPU OC. I assume the slowness is due to the Note's large resolution and it's not quite as optimized as it could be for our phones. It is smooth but just terribly slow.
UPDATE
OOOOKAY guys I am back with some interesting results!
I continued to try more roms and see the performance with Need for Speed Most Wanted. I first tried Flapjaxx's stock ICS rom with touchwiz with an overclock kernel and gpu OC. That ran better than any of the AOSP but still had some slowness to it.
Seeing as the stock roms tended to give more performance, I tried another stock rom. This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766933. No OC kernel, everything stock pretty much. Here is what happened:
1. I restored NFS from titanium
2. NFS says this android is not compatible
3. I uninstall NFS and install it from the Playstore and redownload the SD data
4. Ran the game and observed that there was little to no lag! Well I'm sure it could be a bit better, the frame rate was totally playable and it actually felt speedy!
Now i'm not sure what is happening here. Either 1. the game downloaded a new SD data with lower graphics requirements, 2. the game recognized the device as a different device and choose the graphics setting accordingly, OR 3. the device just performs better @ mostly stock. Now can anybody inform me on how the SD Data actually works that would be great so I can pinpoint what it is.
My next test will be using the above rom that yielded good performance with flapjaxx's OC/GPU kernel to see if it speeds up the frames anymore.
UPDATE 2
After a bit more testing I see that without the OC kernel and using the kernel from 'better stock' ROM above, the road actually is missing some water and effects which is probably leading to the smoother gameplay! If anybody else is testing this let me know what your results are!
UPDATE 3
Trying out flappjaxx's Jelly Bean rom with his GPUOC and CPUOC. No surprise there, graphics got bumped up.
What I did notice is that there is almost NO DIFFERENCE in frames (from what I could see) from Stock rom + AOSP/JB roms with OC kernel in BUMPER CAMERA MODE despite the higher graphics. To be clear, those of you on AOSP that are already using bumper mode will not get higher frames in bumper mode on something like a stock rom. There is little to no difference in bumper modes. Should be all that I can test now. I will be sticking with this Jellybeanie and playing NFS in bumper camera mode myself (in car view).
EA, give us graphic options. That is all.
UPDATE 4
In conclusion:
Game is somehow determining the graphics through the kernel
SD Data downloaded is the same on every rom, don't have to download new SD Data.
Some roms perform better than others. I had a lot of luck with Jelly Bean roms on stock kernel, no need to overclock.
Figured I'd give you guys a ranking list from roms. Going from best to worst
1. Latest Jelly Bean Nightly 11/21 Stock Kernel - Great out of car and even faster in car - graphics medium
2. Flapjaxx's FJ Stock Rom Mod - OCGPU/CPU best performance (in car view only) - graphics high
3. Electro's Stock Rom - Stock Kernel with no OC Okay performance in both out of car view and in car view - graphics medium
im running AOPK milestone 1, You can kinda play the game....but all the cars are black the buildings are black and the road is black....Not really sure what is going on! but I do get the slowmo at first but after I go to the menu and go back to playing the game it starts to run smoothly....in black that is!
I noticed the slowness as well, I switched to the in car view and it runs much better. Give that a try...
Sounds like u downloaded the wrong SD data

Ditto, switching to in-car view is definitely a lot smoother, has decent graphics but looks like the limit of S3 Adreno 225 chip has been reached, this (and other games of similar graphic quality) may be enough reason for me to upgrade to note 2 later. I also have slow down problem with NBA 2K13.
No real graphic glitch however, if you see missing textures it has to be wrong sd data, remember we are Snapdragon NOT Mali.
Im on liquid RC7 with KK.12 kernel no overclocking and the game seems to run fine for me with no lags..however Tomdg07 is right its a battery hog which quite frankly isnt a surprise. I just got off a 30 minute subway ride and I was playing it the entire time..used up exactly 20% of the battery.

Really? No lag? Hmm, what's that ROM? Is it one of the Jellybeanies? Have you tried in car view to see if it is even faster than out car?

Yes indeed no lag at all - Liquid is a jellybeanie you can find it in the original development thread. To be honest I havent had the need to try in car view because the out car view has been working fine.
I should mention though that whilst I have not over clocked I am using several build prop tweaks some of which Im sure optimize graphics and what not.

Just tried NFS Most Wanted on Liquid with KK Kernel and no luck. I even tried some build prop tweaks. It just feels too slow. Weird.
Going to try deleting it and redownloading the SD Data instead of restoring it from Titanium. Will report back with results.
EDIT: No go either. Still low frame rates. On a good note however, Liquid Jellybean Rom is probably the most stable of the Jellybeanies.

Tried the OC Kernel on the stock ROM which lead it to being slow again! I'm not sure now what to think. Going to wipe and go back to the 'better stock' kernel not the 'pure stock'.

I really just wish there was an in-game settings option to reduce the graphics quality...... (if there is and I'm missing it please fill me in)

Agreed. Right now there is no way to change graphics quality. Certainly would save me trouble. What I think is happening is that with some Roms and Kernels the game thinks we have higher hardware and cranks up the graphic quality thus slowing down the performance of the game.
What I found is every time I used an OC kernel of some type, the game slows. So it might be a kernel issue.
I just cant comprehend why despite having the same phone and same setup (i.e. rom, kernel etc) we get totally different results.
PS> Tomdg07 props to your state for pushing obama over the 270 he needed to win. Americans totally made up for giving dubya two terms.
I was testing some more Roms yesterday including Black IV and Electro's stock debloated Rom. Black IV had flapjaxx's kernel with the ability to OC and on the Electro was not OCable.
My results were the same. Something about flapjaxx's kernel or kernels with the ability to OC makes the game bump up in graphics thus making it slower. The game must be scanning the clockspeed or something or maybe it's something deeper than that. If I can I want to test out AOSP roms again to see if its the kernel or both the kernel + the rom.
Trying out flappjaxx's Jelly Bean rom with his GPUOC and CPUOC. No surprise there, graphics got bumped up.
What I did notice is that there is almost NO DIFFERENCE in frames (from what I could see) from Stock rom + AOSP/JB roms with OC kernel in BUMPER CAMERA MODE despite the higher graphics. To be clear, those of you on AOSP that are already using bumper mode will not get higher frames in bumper mode on something like a stock rom. There is little to no difference in bumper modes. Should be all that I can test now. I will be sticking with this Jellybeanie and playing NFS in bumper camera mode myself (in car view).

Hi all,
My phone experiences big lag on most of the Glu Games. When I first enter the game everything is smooth, but after playing for a while (10-20 minutes, it depends) the phone starts stuttering. I have to quit the game, which takes like 2-3 minutes, go to the Task Manager and press Clear Memory. After this everything gets back to normal. By enabling the show CPU usage from the Developer Options, I can see that every time the phones lags, mmcqd/0 is eating a lot of CPU and stays high until I Clear the memory. This happens with Contract Killer 1 and 2, Contract Killer Zombies, Blood and Gory, Blood and Glory Legend. Other games like Dead Trigger, Dungeon Hunter 3, Shadowgun, Death Dome lags a bit, and all other smaller games like Angry Birds, etc are running smooth.
Does anyone have an idea of why this is happening?
Just to rule out some suggestions:
- I don't have Power Saving enabled
- I don't have an external SD card
- I did a Factory Reset
I'm on latest stock ROM for BTU: I9300XXELLA.
Thanks.

Stocks aren't really optimized for heavy usage..you should have no such probs on a custom rom. If you're on stock just for battery, you could settle in for battery savers like phenomenal kernel..

That's strange because using other intensive games like Dungeon Hunters I have a smooth experience. It just happens as mentioned with most of the glu games.
No one else having these issues?
Can I simply flash SiyahKernel without doing anything else? I'm on latest stock 4.1.2 LLA (with Exynos security bug fixed).
Will it have any impact if I'm not also using a custom ROM?
you can flash only the kernel, yes
Running siyah now and having the same problems.
same as me....lag..freeze after a while
Im on MA2 rom Tuga Power from MiUi from CM10.1 from marcello v9 from viking rom v456
all lag hard and freeze on glu games especcially contract killer 2
So i stripped everything out just leaving cam.gallery.browser.files.
I get like 400 /500 mb free ram on boot but once i start the game 20-30 minutes it lags hard amd freeze
Check ram usage amd i have 100/200mb free ram but contract killer 2 is stuck. Battery out and back at 1 again over and over.
I dont know why a quad [email protected] [email protected] is freezing.
Siyah kernel 1.8.9
Puzzled for sure and worse of all my p6200 galaxy tab 7 plus plays it beautifully no stutter or lag or freeze... 7hours straight.

I have two galaxy SIII's and experiencing exactly the same problem. It only happens in glu games (tried blood and glory 1 2, dragon slayer, heroes of Destiny). I did some search on the internet but haven't seen anyone experiencing this problem but you.
Hello,
there are a lot of people with such a problem within Contract Killer 2. I have also S3 (9300) and after 1 contract played sound is going crappy and I cannot play due to freeze, but interesting is that enemies can walk,shoot, everything except me. After reboot it is going fine one contract and again.
I have disabled hardware overlays... any new solutions such an annoying problem ?
Regards,
So my s3 all of a suden started to have micro stutters,i have a custom rom Foxhound 2.3, and when i try a custom kernel it lags as hell. for exemple perseus stutters my phone in app drawer and almost everytime i open an application. Syah 1.8.9. although its better, still have some stutters... the only one that can have the phone more stable is the stock one. I dont really mind having the stock kernel is just that it makes the phone more stable but it still stutters some times when opening apps and in the app drawer. Its weird because in applications i have no problems, and when im playing games is all good to.. even the more heavy intensive. Also my boot and shutdown animation stutter or jitters a little bit.. a thing that dint happened.
Also the benchmarks are good as always +/- 16000 on antutu, no changes... so i dont really understand whats happening...
Is the phone dead? any ideas?

I have had this also. I guess it could be some minor ROM/kernel incompatibility or something like that. Performance was usually good but the tiny little stuttering drove me crazy. Yank555 kernel was a good solution for me, 0 stutter.
I would say that the bundled kernel in any given ROM is probably the most stable with that ROM, but if you want to try a different kernel it's best to flash it right after a clean ROM flash and configure the kernel to be a little bit more on the performance side. I mean if it's configured to save battery it's more likely to make the UI stutter.
At the moment I'm on ReVolt nightly with Yank CM kernel. No lags or stutters. I've tested a few Samsung leak 4.2.1 ROMs also with (obviously) stock kernels, no stutters with them either.
Play around and test different ROMs and kernels, find the best solution for you.

Strange. If it does it with all kernels and ROMs it could be some kind of a hardware problem. I would flash stock ROM through Odin just to be sure... if that won't help I think nothing will.
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
