pokemon GO performance issues - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

I've been trying to play the game recently and it's been lagging my phone due to it being it in a tablet mode (i THINK)
for other apps i get the tablet mode automatically too is there something other than xposed (since it doesn't work in EMUI) that can switch apps between tablet and mobile modes for specific apps?
Thanks all

Performance is terrible on mine too, running Candy Six ROM. I think the problem is just our phone isn't great.

What's your current dpi? If its 240, then you can try bigger numbers till 320. That may be the factor decides its mode. I know everything will bigger, but at least you can give your game another try.

Edit: Disregard

Thanks, but I haven't changed my dpi so it should already be on the default 320

i think our phones are fine for mobile apps but tablet apps are just too much haha

That's kind of disheartening to hear. Have yet to switch to a higher OS but Pokemon GO is my motivation to working on it. How bad of a lag is it?

There's a paid app which can tweak 3d gl settings called GLtools. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaxx-v23Jec
If you're rooted, also the xposed module 'app settings' can change the DPI (I tried this but didn't notice an effect). I'm on CM 12.1 (Lolipop) and sometimes the AR/3D can be laggy at times.

My kids are on b322 and candy 6 without any issues.

GPS a problem to me, but the lag/dropped frames are.

Pokemon GO works fine with my GPS on CM12.1 (5.1.1) I did have to disable from Developer Options 'Allow Mock Locations' for GPS to work though. It wouldn't work at all before doing that. Then using GPS Status app to get the ADATA info from internet and get a first fix on the new ROM (upgraded from 4.3) then setting location to 'high accuracy.' After that the game and all the other apps work with GPS now.
Did you try it on other ROMS or have better frame rates with this game on previous android versions?

Oops, I meant to say GPS isn't a problem for me. It doesn't point the right way (off by a few degrees) and jumps around a little bit but it's not a big deal.
And no, I never got to try the game on a different ROM. Do you have good frame rates?

GPS works fine for me. Have you tried calibrating your compass/and pitch and roll (accelerometer)? GPS Status app can help with that. I did have to calibrate my accelerometer since it was off by default but works fine once done.
As for frame rates it's playable now...but it is better with AR off. I'd miss throws with it on since it lags too much when I swipe up to throw the pokeball. The Pokedex is buggy though. Otherwise it works ok.

For myself, frame rate is okay most of the time. Catch mode with AR is very laggy. Sometimes, it even lags with AR off. However, I get menu lag with the Pokemon tab and PokeDex during peak hours pretty much any time during the day. No issue during nighttime play. However, GPS is very inaccurate over here. Sometimes I can't even access PokeStops and Gyms especially if they are in the park. GG, game over. GPS set to high accuracy and game has been given permission. Anyway, any suggestions? Cmod 12.1 here.

Do we still have this setting? "Use Wireless Networks" and "Use GPS Satellites?" I wasn't able to find it.
By the way, for right now, it is working. I redownloaded my area within Google Maps and that seemed to like a lot. However, I may still need that link in the future. Thanks arcades.

No problem. For reference:
In Location Settings
Use Wireless Networks = Battery Saver
Use GPS Satellites = Device Only
(Use Both) = High Precision

For my Cmod 12.1, Personal > Locatoin > I can only select one of the following. High accuracy, Battery saving, or device only. Is that right?

GPS is still broken. I'm going to try wiping my phone and maybe re-installing the radio file. Did you have any issues at all with your GPS and Pokemon? When I am using Google Maps, It's fine. It's prefect, but in PoGo it's really bad.
