hy everyone. I've been having some issues with the jellybean roms, lack of hd playing is a big one for me.
I was wondering two things: is there a custom ics rom out there without touchwiz thats pretty much bug free? is touchwiz optimizable or is it always a hinderence on performance?
thanks all this community rocks!!
How about cm9? Go to goo.im, go to dev -> cm -> p4/p4wifi(depending on your device) and download the latest cm9. But I doubt that YouTube HD playback will be smoother in ICS.

I put on infamous tab 3.0 ics. So far everything is intensely better. Hd youtube works, Hd videos work in mx (they were not before in jb roms..) Will still take suggestion from this thread but so far I'm really happy. Ill keep you guys posted.

Hi, first of all im a AOSP and AOKP rom user since i updated to ics I only tried sammy ICS once (dxlp7) I know its outdated many new release now a days from sammy guys.
Got several issues on playing games on AOSP and AOKP roms it freezes a lot with continues repeating sound and some games doesnt even work like riptide gp.
My question is does latest sammy ICS roms (dxlp9 or xwlp9) has the same freezing issues while playing hd games
Does riptide gp works on sammy ics?
Does temple run freeze with repeating sounds?
Thanks a lot btw i move back to checkROM but i missed ics ui and features.

I'm using WanamLite 11.2 XWLP8 Base, and yes Riptide does tend to freeze every now and then, but sometimes i can play for almost an hour and it plays smooth. The freezing has never been bad enough for me to be bothered by it.
Not every HD games work fine on ics, only the latest version run well.
I played temple run on ics specially im on wanamlite v11.5, no freeze at all.
Update to the latest version of riptide gp, maybe it will work.

Actually the problem with temple run is that it is based on unity 3d engine.... and unity still doesn't supports ics.... the devs know the problem but they cannot do anything until unity gets android 4.0.3 support..

On wanamlite is there an option to hide or display am/pm or hide the clock on the status bar?

Temple run works just fine on stock ics, but freezes on cm9.

Same issue here. Temple run freezes almost every time. Running CM9 latest nightly.

Im on wanamlite since v11.1, never find a way to hide the clock. But there is a way to hide the PM/AM, just check the 24hour format setting..

Great that Temple runs works on stock ICS without freeze, how about riptide GP anyone tried that game on stock ICS roms?

Well,I've seen a looooot of problems with these custom roms ,gamewise, I haven't tried these games with stock ics though,I don't like stock ics that much so it really does suck that we can't play hd games,I'll give it a try and will come back as soon as I discover something new, let's help each other here, what do you guys think? I really want my sgs2 to be able to okay games, it sucks that having such an amazing phone we aren't able to play quality games, right?
I have a Sony LWW, and i want to know which os is better. i have tried both and also some custom roms. The stock one en GB is really smooth and bug free, but the ICS features are reallu cool. ICS is kinda laggy on stock rom, and with custom rom it's ok, but not as good as GB. What do you recommend?
Gingerbread.
There are no point of flashing ics on our phone. Except custom ics rom I guess

Gingerbread of course!

ICS. I mean it depends, if you want your phone for gaming, then Gingerbread it's better for you. But I actually have new HD games installed on my phone, and they run pretty well. What I like more about ICS it's the UI. I think it's really nice. I also like it because of the task manager (when you long press the home button) it's really useful. But it's up to you, personally I would recommend you to upgrade to ICS. I hope Sony will release an update and correct some bugs, but I have some time using ICS, and it doesn't seem to be so laggy at all.
HD games like asphalt doesnt seem yo work on ics. Ics ui is way much better

I have Aphalt 7 (the newest) installed on my LWW with ICS, and it runs very smoothly...
I also have Modern Combat 3, N.O.V.A.3 and the Amazing Spider-Man running on my WT19 with ICS. No problems at all. :laugh:
What ics rom are you using? And where did you get asphalt7?
Sent from my WT19a using xda app-developers app
Ill go for ICS latest OS and have gr8 UI... For me its batter then GB only thing on ICS i dont like is HD Video Recording lags and scrolling is bit laggy... Games are working f9 for me i dont play HD games, but i have tried Asphalt 7 and The Amazing spider man working pretty well...
FOR DOWNLOADING ASPHLAT 7 Search it on google. cant share u the link coz u already know why...!
ICS. Its running perfectly on my Live. after upgrade, if yours lags and performs slower, format SD card and repair firmware thru PCC.
ICS. Its look great and its fast

I'm using stock ICS rom.
And about asphalt, I can't tell you because it's against the rules but search for it on google, it's already out and works great on my Live.
Thanks Man. I upgraded yo ics stock and i'm using The Xperia s launcher and apps. I've finally got my ics yo run smooth
Sent from my WT19a using xda app-developers app
I liked ICS, and i put the Galaxy sIII launcher, my cell run very smoothly
Vote for ics
Great features.. decent UI (better than GB), but one drawback is it lags while playing HD games (virtua tennis).. Other than that it's gr8!
i have recently downloaded Asphalt 7 & Real Racing 2 for my international variant s3. however, everytime i start these games....the game crashes before it even hits the menu.....can it be because i am running custom rom based on jelly bean leaks? i am currently running foxhound's latest 0.2 rom
Flash latest DLI6 Leak and you wont need a custom rom... Working flawless so far here!

do games work properly on it?
The only time I've had problems with games was with custom kernels.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Yup, it´s probably because of the custom kernel.
those games may or may not be compatible with jb roms. so unless you havent changed anything in your rom you have to wait for an update if the problem is persistent
Oh ya.... Those supercharger scripts would also cause my games to run like crap or FC.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I'm running fox hound 1.4.3 ics, with galaxsih (normal) its superb, it runs better than the iphone version.
Supercharger does mess things up but seeing as your on jelly bean your kernel should be stock right. I don't think custom kernels are out for it yet.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
can anyone give me links to a proper working SD data for real racing 2? the 1s i downloaded just keeps crashing.... i changed roms & kernels but to no avail
i get this error m3g rr_track18.m3g break here.....
it works great on my phone. the only game i find laggy is the Brothers in Arms 2 where it takes so long to start, takes so long to load and takes so long to exit. and when it exits my live wallpaper just disappears and about 5sec redraw of drawer/home screen.
download real racing in samsung apps i downloaded mine there maybe it will work on you.
I am having the same issue with asphalt and MC3 on CM9 with stock cm kernel and siyah kernel.
I have seen on other threads that chainfire 3d might help but it says it's froyo/gingerbread only.
Any other suggestions? I'd rather keep cm but would like to play these games.

Im tellin ya there is something wrong with those foxhound jellybean roms. They never able to handle all my apps when I restore them all it always crashes the phone, freezes etc... Soon as I flash stock JB and root it with Siyah Kernel works perfect.
Hi XDA community !
I got finally my S3 and i'm so happy with it
Just a question, i've installed CM10.1 and made some tests (game like Rayman, whatsapp, antutu,...).
Menus are more flowing but in the apps, phone run slower.
When i put the stock rom, it's the opposite.
What do you think about that ?
If I'm not mistaken, CM10.1 is based on Android 4.2, which is a bit buggy from what I've experienced with my N7.
Maybe use a themed TouchWiz based ROM, get the best of both worlds.

Hey guys, I'm looking for suggestions for a stable ROM with a good battery life. I'm not too interested in tweaks since it will mainly be for watching videos.
If you also don't need much features go for Omni 4.3.

Hi, Omnirom(15-Feb-2014) from kasper_h is playing youtube fine.I`ve look transformer transformation without too many lag. Was watchable.
good luck
If you don't mind a little beta head over here...

Also by kasper_h. It plays h264 content in SD ablolutely flawless and even 720p is smooth most of the time, both using MX player.
Galaxy task 14 slim.
Believe me, you could play YouTube HD video without a single lag just by using a honeycomb, neither ICS nor kitkat can play HD video smoothly.
