I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S and there was a great improvement in perfomrance with a filesystem fix as well as access to custom Roms via ROM manager. What benefits will I get with rooting the Streak? Is there any big performance boost I can get out of it?
with mine being rooted used steakdroid and found the could increase cpu speed, battery was lasting longer and not bogged down with dell ui which had various apps running
Just having the device rooted itself is half the fun. Being able to do whatever you want on it with no restrictions!
Personally I don't do anything that really needs a performance boost.I think it's quick enough in my opinion. Will probably be looking into Underclocking to increase battery performance. Would still be interested in your results though if you try.
Hey, I have some problems with almost all games, I tryed all, thd games, gameloft games, market games....
I cant play any game smooth, what is wrong, I tested it on all actuell custom roms.
Please help me, the games running blazing fast on my galaxy note, but not on my tab
These would help make it easier on other's to help, Firmware Version and #? What tab version? Custom or Stock Kernel?
But yes I will have to agree, most games that end up scaling are **** laggy, Only game that hasn't lagged on me hard was "Where's My Water?" and "Osmosis HD", if you aren't on 1.4Ghz by Pershoot, most lag so damned hard, BS tegra2
Yoda : I couldn't play initially, lag strong with this one, yes.
Just change the governor in Pershoots Kernel to performance but don't keep it on performance all the time, when your done gaming, change it back to ondemand or something as performance on all the time will kill the tablet faster as it makes the GPU processing 100% making games smooth and lagfree at most.
My tablet was doing that too but then I followed the advice of people in here and installed pershoots kernel and set CPU and set it to 1400 and it got super fast
What governor did you use? Performance?

I did that. My games work perfect now. Thanks
Im very new to android and was very surprised that the GS 3 was giving me lower than expected framerates when playing NOVA 3. I wrongly expected that the phone would be able to run all games at 60fps. bad NOVA 3 seems to run at between 40fps - 60fps...... very rarely staying at a constant 60fps. or is it just my phone?? i have noticed the same with riptide too. most of the time it is very smooth but when all of the jets are on the screen at the same time the framerate drops... so im really hoping that jelly bean will help to fix this or not???
Why dont you get an iphone if you are not satisfied with the best PHONE
JellyBean is not a MIRACLE that it will make fastest phone more faasstest!
IF YOU LIKE MY WORK, THANK ME BY THE BUTTON BELOW
Sorry deleted
To answer your question in simple terms, No Jelly Bean will not increase the performance of gaming on the S3.
Project Butter enables VSYNC for window transitions and animations in the operating system, meaning that the FPS is increased to a constant 60FPS. Obviously other things are done so that the devices can handle this change, but this is what happens at basic level. For this to be incorporated into games, you will have to get the developer to make the same changes and make it work effectively with your phone's hardware.
But no, project butter only affects the Android OS animations, and not gaming.
Someone is welcome to correct me if I am wrong and I will change this post accordingly.
If i wanted to get an iphone i would have got one instead of the S3. i know that jelly bean improves the fps of the ui to 60fps, but what i wanted to know if anyone knows is will jeyy bean also improve the framerate of games?
Consequently No.

thanks DarkRyoushii. all i needed to know!
This is completely incorrect, sorta? If you install Nova Launcher, it's essentially a game. I know you don't play it, but it's an application that does exactly the same as a game, uses your phones CPU and RAM. Project Butter works by ramping up the CPU each and every time the screen is touched in all aspects of the OS, be gaming or custom launcher. This may not increase the speed of a game or improve it, because it's mainly more responsive to touch so I'm not too sure about that bit.

Will this jellybean allow us to move apps/games to external sd?

I experience the same choppiness on riptide. It really kills the experience.

Even more annoying thing is: the US GS3 doesn't seem to suffer the same problem even with it's crappy Adreno 225.

JB is a new version of an operating system, it changes nothing in the layout of the filesystem.
You can, with some manual work and root, already move the apps to the external sd.
I'm sure someont will make an app for that but for now it's as good as it can get

Higher frame-rates and more aggressive cpu scaling won't increase battery life.
I differ from all who said it doesnt improve on games. Games that used to be laggy on my nexus with ics now play smoothly on jellybean
Ugghhh, So many misinformed people. The reason games don't play smoothly is because they're not optimized to fit with the modified mali400 gpu. Give it time, games will be optimized. Hell nova3 runs like butter on my s2 and the gpu is similar. It is possible for an os to increase gpu performance, ics saw a 20% improvement over gb. But i doubt they changed Amy code dealing with that for jb.

No, it will not.
The reason games are smoother and faster on the iPhone compared to the S3 is the same reason why PS3 games are smoother than the latest and fastest pcs. It's because games are optimised specifically for the iPhone, while android games are all lousy ports.
To have a game run super well on the s3, we'll need to hope for a Mali-optimised game, which won't happen any time soon, considering the influence of ios and tegra.
Yes it will improve the framerate somehow. In theory it shouldn't but it does.
For example, before Samsung Galaxy S2 got the ICS update, on Nenamark 2 it only achieved around 47fps, now with 53fps with ICS update.
Another example would be the Nexus 7, while it has a Tegra 3 built in, it's GPU is a lower clock at 427Mhz (Something like that) and achieves 55fps on Nenamark 2 compared to Asus Transformer Prime with a higher clock GPU (533Mhz) and only achieving around 48fps. (Both have same resolution, but different Android OS, Jelly Bean vs Ice Cream Sandwich).
I'll be getting the Galaxy S3 (Again) but the blue version (Grey-ish really), but I remember that Nova 3 and Riptide (With Tegra effects) played smoothly on Siyahkernel v1.2.x, I don't know now, but give it a try.
It won't necessarily require JB to make games run faster. It'll require Samsung to provide updated drivers for the Mali GPU. Whether that comes with an ICS or a JB update is irrelevant.
Hello guys.I have galaxy s2 with stock kernel 4.1.2 , rooted with stock cpu/gpu clocks. I use an app that's with lowest graphics of the game, 1.1.0 meltdown update. I still drop to 20-25fps and the average isn't much more than 35fps. This is definitely better than stock game but it's still not very playable. I saw a one year old thread where people ran the game with this phone and lowest graphics with 60fps. Is it just me or are you guys experiencing the same ? If the problem Is only mine, any tips to increase frames? CPU oc doesn't do much.

Well,I don't have a S2 but you can increase the performance with this MOD, it also increase the battery life too:

I would really love to see a ROM specially made for gaming in our Beautiful and powerful Xperia tablet Z (Pollux/Windy).
Can any developer(s) build a custom ROM with some performance tweaks just like as in EvoMix Kernel and extra gaming features like:
Resolution Changer (To increase the performance in games)
Google Play games integration
Ramp up CPU to 1712000 MHz
Ramp up GPU to 487 MHz
In-built support for Game Controllers
Game theme and boot Animation
Default I/O schedulers best for gaming {Maybe ZEN I guess as suggested in this awesome article about I/O schedulers http://androidmodguide.blogspot.in/p/io-schedulers.html}
GFX optimization (As in Gltools)
And other optimizations For Stability and performance.
Seems like a dream now and i know there will be a lot of work behind it. But Our tablet is built for performance and it can do much better with some performance optimizations. So Anyone interested?

Let's be frank, TabZ is 2.5 years old hardware, so while it can actually handle some games pretty well, the new ones are too tough for its GPU especially.
With some kernel modifications and overclock you can squeeze some more out of it, but Antutu ~26.5 is probably a maximum for S4 Pro chipset and Adreno 320 graphics (without heavy hardware voltage mods and cryonic cooling).
By using apps like GLTools, you can fine tune performance, but usually by degrading quality (lowering render resolution), and offloading GPU this way..
So can the gaming ROM be made? Sure, it can, but the use of it on old hardware (also software, cause Sony will not update it to Android 6.0) is under a question.
Devices built on Snapdragon 800 (801 & 805) like Z2/Z3TC are more capable of high quality hires gaming, while they getting older too.
Thanks @Rootk1t We can optimize a game in different ways.. And we can make heavy games like modern Combat 5 run smoothly on our Tablet Z. If you use a resolution changer app and decrease the resolution on your screen you can get a noticeable increase in performance in the game. With this if we have EvoMix kernel features like overclocked CPU and GPU etc.. I'm sure we can get rid of lags and play most of the games smoothly. But unfortunately, the resolution changer app does not seem to work with CM based ROMs.
I'm pretty much of a noob to developer thingy, but our developers know how to optimize the tab for max performance by taking out unwanted apps and adding some tweaks to the kernel/ROM.
I just can't wait for a gaming rom to be released.
But that's a sad news about Marshmallow

It's like gaming on PC. If don't have powerfull graphicscard or you have a laptop with built in one, you need to decrease resolution, let's say from 1920x1080 to 1280x720, after this framerate will increase, maybe to playable state, but quality will drop.
So the more you decreasing resolution the more drop quality of picture. On PC, we can add some antialising, on TabZ we're unable to do that, cause it's just won't handle that. On some games it is not very noticeable, on others it is very noticeable.
EvoMix kernel definitely allows some overclocking, but if you have CM12.1 you can test yourself, in Antutu or Quadrant, the gain from overclocking is not high, but at the same way greatly affects battery life.
Definitely depends on game, but is stressing hardware and battery.

Thanks @Rootk1t i understand that
Is there any way can we figure out why resolution changer (NoMone Resolution changer) does not work with CyanogenMod?

It seems that CM is using another way to change resolution. Don't know is it a bug or a feature, but still there are mentions of it.
Try using other apps like Resolution Changer Pro.

Ummm... resolution changer doesn't work either on my CrDroid. It changes the dpi though but not resolution.
