KitKat allows apps/games to use "immersive mode" to keep the navigation and status bars hidden while maintaining user interaction.
1. Did you notice this change after the update. Can you play games like Asphalt 8, Dungeon Hunter 4 in true Full Screen mode now (with status and nav bars hidden)?
2. Any performance drops in Games after the update?
3. What games do you play on your XZU?

1. Yes Asphalt 8 runs on Full Screen Mode. Haven't tried others but they should update their apps to do that, not KitKat default behavior (it's just an option so devs need to activate the mode first)
2. Seems the same, some stutter here and there at Asphalt 8 race intro, but in the game it is smooth
3. Asphalt 8, Riptide 2 (not installed yet after KitKat update)

Thanks. Please post screenshot of Asphalt 8 playing on XZU 4.4. And what about other apps like Web Browser and Whatsapp etc? Are they running in full screen too with nav bar hidden? I guess several apps were updated recently to support this feature.

My phone is charging right now, maybe later. But it is guaranteed to run full screen. Web Browser and Whatsapp doesn't use Immersive Mode AFAIK. Only games or e-book reader that might implement that mode.

OK, no problem. :good: If there is no performance drop then 4.4 update is MUST for avid gamers. I really disliked the nav bar while playing games. The full immersive mode feature alone is worth the update despite other minor bugs being reported by users.

Hi all and sorry for my bad english.
First of all i'd like to thanks for your work.
I had install Alpha 5 ICS in my folio 100 tablet and i think that it's a PERFECT rom but i have a problem and i'd like to know if it happend only to me.
When i put the tablet in standby (press power button) and i turn it on after some minutes the screen blink for minutes and i . Then it return normal.
is there anyone that have this problem?
Is it a problem of the rom or of my hardware?
Thanks a lot
It's related to alpha5,however not everyone experiences it.

I have the same problem. For me it looks like switching to applications reduces a lot the flickering, and makes it stop a lot sooner.
Same problem, screen flicker when waken from sleep.
Hi everyone,
I have sometimes flicker in wake, but still very reasonable.
This also happens when starting the Folio (very rare), this on the original kernel or amended by the Botto00 (OC+387 Mo).
Can not write about the thread development, I want to thank the developers for this great alpha5.
It works great and is very stable.
-I have only noticed a few crashes during games (screen that completely blocks), as well as the modified kernel OC.
-An issue with the judgment of the Folio. It happens that it freezes at that time, which means that it 's not extinguish. Similarly as with the modified kernel of OC.
-Sometimes the sound does not work correctly on some installations (excluding cracks). The sound is simply inaudible on games.
Overall, that is very good, also modified the kernel botto00 works well. (I don' t use it with overclocking).
Here are the games tested on the Alpha (GT-P7510 build.prop) with kernel OC+387 of botto00 :
Asphalt 6, Canabalt, Dead Space, GTA 3 (download data by automating the time zone), Mass Effect (taken on another device), ShadowGum, Nova 2 and many others.
Does not work :
Modern Combat 3, to CM7 yes.
In the general operation :
-Since the Alpha, more opportunities to uninstall apps by the Drawer of Trebuchet.
-Highly theme manager
Congratulations to all for your work and your information and thank you DerArtem and Nopy occupy the Folio of such a beautiful way.

Can u upload your build.prop?
Nothing more but here : http://www.multiupload.nl/K1GKGD60VX
PS: Nova 3 works pretty well on this rom.
Does Mass Effect work at anyone??
oops, I did not understand your request and I realized, with your second question, that I had forgotten information which "may be" important .
I edit my post......

works for me, you have to launch it for first time and download data using 160DPI, then you can swtich back to 120DPI and it will work nicely
Great =)
I love my Folio more and more,.. =)
If you can tell me, how i can run the Settlers, the Folio is near perfect =)
Your answer was in the build.prop provides ......
I have less problem with a DPI of 160 than 120.
In addition, we use a build of Galaxy Tab has a DPi of 151 .....
For The Settlers HD, that is possible to get rid of the white screen.
You need the version for Tegra and use Chainfire 3D with PowerVR plugins.
Works by 120 or 160 DPI
http://www.imabox.fr/u17/120506141395LqWP24.png
For Chainfire 3D (I use the paid version), you will need to change some settings for the game to run without too many problems.
Thank you for the answer.
On CM7.1 i tried many configurations with CF, everytime white screen,...
Can you tell me your configuration?
Yes to CM7, that was the same problem as on many devices.
Use the PowerVR plugins, uncheck Use default setting and check Reduce texture quality. No choice ......
Unroll textures that crashes the game.
Now i see it right,but the game crashes in the first seconds of the first mission,...
No FC, it closes.
Sorry, I haven 't played much but I'm in act 3.
PS : really, after several tries, not closing the game.
For Nova 3, although the Folio'm running the game, it lacks some effects : (
I just downloaded Modern Combat 5 on my Tab S (10.5) and it looks terrible. It just doesn't seem optimized for the tab s. Very blurry/fuzzy looking. Anybody else have this problem?
it even look ugly in note 3...
Bad games are bad.
looks great on my tab s 8.4
The game resolution seems very low on my 8.4......either that or the screen makes the game look bad.
Sounds like a fatality to me. Badumpa.
This game could be like Photoshop on QHD screens, it just doesn'twork.
It is - as usual - looking brilliant only on a few devices, none of which is manufactured by samsung. It will - as usual, too - change until next versions are released. What you can do as for now...
1) decompile Modern Combat 5 apk file using apktool, edit /res/values/scaleprofile.json and set all the "value" keys varying from 85-50 to 100 or add your model symbol ("sm-t700" or "sm-t705") in "specific section" right after other models which are forced to use 100% resolution, recompile again (I cannot however say if recompiling apks is breaking or is not breaking gameloft's license... if it does then it will be illegal to do it, anyway!) - this will increase the resolution.
EDIT: indeed, the file can be edited and re-packed to apk without compiling at all, just using some archiver like winrar and opening apk file. However, after replacing the file you will need to re-sing the apk.
2) use GLTools and force mock Tegra 4 GPU - this will enable the highest quality setting.
Tested on Note Pro 12.2 LTE which is almost same hardware as TabS's LTE. After enabling both above tweaks game still run fine, but looks MUCH better.
I have the same problem with my tab pro 10.1 wifi. It seems the probelm is related to exynos chipset. Is there any possible woraround that doesnt require root?
can this tablet even handle playing at full resolution? I doubt it will run any faster than 30fps..

i used Gltool but nothings changed .. do you know how to use it ?
They released an update but still no change. Apparently they added the option to change GFX setting on some devices but still not on the tab S.

-go to the app
-select "enable custom settings for this app"
-select "optimise glsl shaders"
-select "use fake gpu info"
-go to "use a template" and choose tegra 4 (shield)
- if you configure one, the other complains.
- this started with tuner 3.4.0.4 and launcher 3.2.x.
as expected, Samsung support is clueless, evasive and inept.
observed on Note 8, s8+ and tab s3 all running oreo.
according to the game tuner team:
".... Updating Game Tuner v3.4 and Game Launcher v3.2, we have aligned them to be used exclusively.
So user is only able to use one of them.
Although they now have almost same feature set, you can choose one of them.
Still you can configure game environment in Game Tuner and launch games through Game Launcher..."

Doesn't work for me with pie.
With game tunter I could force the resolution in The Simpsons Tapped out to WQHD+, now the game starts always with lower resolution - feeling liked zoomed in all the time.
Game Launcher does not offer any resolution options.
Ideas?

Yep, this really sucks. It's hard to notice for some games if they're just running at 1080p but Real Racing 3 has always had this problem. Gear Club needed overclocking (hardware boost) with Game Tuner to play smoothly on Exynos Note 9 at 1440p.
Also, Game Launcher used to have fullscreen mode but now it doesn't under the game tools tab. Now, games that are not yet optimized like Horizon Chase and Smash Hit can only run at 16:9.

Hope you guys are fine and doing great. I'm back with another useful feature in ColorOS. Mobile gaming is growing bigger and faster than any other gaming platform. Smartphones have greatly influenced the growth of the online gaming industry in multiple ways, which include attracting many more gamers. When gaming, mainly there should not be any lag or shutter. It must be buttery smooth. For seamless gaming experience OPPO has introduced Game Space. Here we are discussing about Games[Game Space] available in ColorOS 11.3
So let's know more about Games through this thread!
About Games [Game Space]
Games is an application in OPPO devices to enhances the performance of games and improves the gaming experience. Put all your favorite games in one place. Games will be gathered in one application that serves as a hub so they wouldn't be scattered around your home screen. It also offers the Game Toolkit, DND, Performance enhancement and other features to ensure the best quality game experience for you. The Games will automatically launch game mode when you enter the game, where the phone will intelligently adjust the CPU/GPU/Storage according to the game scenario, ensuring the game to run smoothly at any time, reducing the power consumption.
Let's see what are the options available in app.
Interface
This is how inside the app looks like.
Add games to Games
When you want to quickly add games that you have already downloaded but scattered around your home screen, go to the Games app, tap Add games to add games that you’ve downloaded then Select the game that you want to transfer to Games.
NB : Most of the games will be automatically added to the app after downloading.
You can also Tap on [ ⋮ ] > [Add games] > [Select game] > [Done]
Gaming Data
You can get info about how much time you spend on games.
Game captures
Here you can see the screenshot or recording that you've captured while gaming.
Layout
Tap on [ ⋮ ] we have layout changing option for Interface. Have a look!
Games Settings
We have a plenty of options for better gaming experience.
Tap on [ ⋮ ] > Select Settings
Let's see one by one.
◾️General
Game Toolkit
Enable this for Games exclusive toolbar which can be called from the side when you are playing games. It will be displayed in a small window where the user can directly enable screen capture, recording, hang-up, and other related functions.
Move game icons to "Games"
This feature allows user to hide game from home screen and allow game to appear only in Games.
◾️DND
Answer calls on speaker
Calls are automatically answered on the speaker when Game mode is turned on.
Notification style
•Heads-up notifications
•Bullet notifications
•Block
Brightness lock
Auto brightness adjustment is off during gaming.
◾️Performance Enhancement
Vibration enhancement
A cylinder-shaped Z-axis linear motor provides multiple vibration waveforms. It provide subtle and rich vibration for different skills and events in gaming scenarios to deliver wonderful visual-hearing-haptics experience for shooting and MOBA games.
[Supported Games : PUBG, LOL: Wild Rift]
Smart Network Switching
This function can further reduce WLAN delay by using the 4G network. However, this will consume mobile data.
◾️Others
Quick startup
Each time you exit a frequently- played game, it will be kept running in the background so you can launch it faster next time. This will not increase battery consumption. Some games may stop running in the background if an error occurs.
Game focus mode
This feature is mainly for the heavy gamers out there who don’t need any interruption, even Bullet Notifications. This feature allows you to focus on gaming only. If this feature is turned on, the following features shown in the image will be disabled.
Game filters
This feature enhances the quality, texture,and colour of in-game graphics and sharpens the edges of objects, brining design details to previously unseen levels.
Note:- In this thread, I'm using Reno6 Pro 5G. In other OPPO device you can find Games as Game Space.
Hope you guys will enjoy these features. Try it and share your experience in the comment section below.
