Well for whatever reason cm7 rc4 didn't work very well. I could never get a lock inside the house, with Royal glacier it even locks in the house and takes about 7 seconds without loading GPS toolbox first.

There was also a pretty significant lag when driving and will have to test that out to see if there is any improvement. I suspect it has to to with refresh rate and that may be built into or a limitation of the hardware.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lycan_codex:
Hi everyone,

I know 60 fps is a great thing on a smartphone. But with dual cores and high performance GPUs , it would be great to lift the FPS cap that is placed on Galaxy S II and SGS1.

How is it possible to lift the FPS cap on SGS II ? Is it something which can be done once we have the source code for the 2.3.3 which Galaxy S II comes with?

Tegra 2 equipped devices have a limit of over 80 FPS.

I dont want this fix to increase the already ridiculously high Quadrant scores (doesn't equate to real life performance anyway). I want to see how the games would run if the FPS cap is lifted?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
Quite likely slower. Big change the screen has a refresh rate of 60 FPS. A danger when running @ higher FPS (aside from the battery use and overheating) is that you may get frame stutter. You shouldn't, but I've seen it happen on more mobile devices.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lycan_codex:
How come the LG Optimus 2X does 80 fps? is it something to do with the screen refresh ratio of an LCD vs SuperAMOLED ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rawat:
They're cheating to get higher benchmark scores.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Capping the frame rate is a good thing, the only reason to uncap it is to find the technical benchmark prowess of the device and not for actual usage.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supercurio:
Anything higher than the screen refresh rate is a waste of battery used to calculate non-displayed images.

Optimus 2x cheats benchmarks like that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lycan_codex:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pikabob:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoonydeus:

Damn guys, having the best phone is not enough? You need a totally useless patch just to boost a score (you won't even notice it... except the battery drain)...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImS0Raw:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkrmec:
some people are just greedy.. why in the world would you need to go past 40 FPS let alone 60???

For the benchmarks? If you want to really benchmark the phone go and use a benchmarking app that has a benchmarking test that has actual textures to draw in the test, unlike CRAPPPPPY bench like Quadrant.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PSPuser93:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
every phone in the last few years have screens with physical limits of 60 FPS. nexus one, nexus s, desire, etc all of them have screens which max out at 60 fps as a physical limitation of the screen. i doubt the super amoled plus will be any different, so it likely has the same physical limitation as well. no way to increase it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Death666Angel:
Of course you can make the phone produce more than 60 frames per second. But the display cannot show all of them. Except for 120Hz 3D LCDs, no LCD I know of has more than 60Hz. And it doesn't make sense to render more frames than the display can show, so the software locks it down to a maximum of 60 (VSync). This way it conserves battery and reduces heat production.

The LG 2X doesn't display more than 60Hz either, but Nvidia, not new to the game of benchmarking, decided to increase the number of produced (not displayed!) frames in order to win with benchmarks.

It is theoretically possible to do the same with the SGS2, thus creating an apples to apples comparison.

I hope some reviews like Anandtech will be able to do that. But the average Joe really doesn't.

So again, it is a software limitation set in place to get the best results from the given hardware. :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] touness69:
Original GS already has a patch that uncap the fps to allow more than 60fps...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
can someone help me better understand what frame tearing is? is this when i use VLC player and sometimes part of the last scene stays for a few seconds in the next scene? usually part of someones face stays, like the part of the scene that was moving transitions moves on, but stationary things in the scene stay, like a persons face was still, but the background that was moving changes, usually if im watching a 1080p video or something
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Death666Angel:
The thing you describe is not frame/screen tearing. What you talk about with certain elements of a previous screen lingering on after they are out of the picture sounds like a coder issue. Modern codecs save information with a variety of tricks. They have static information, stuff that moves from frame to frame etc. They don't save a film as all full pictures for each frame. They have one full frame and the next few frames are usually saved as "what is different from the full frame", i.e. what element has moved where, what is exactly where it is in the full frame. They can also take into account full frames that are yet to come. It's really quite ingenious. This way they can conserve a lot of space. But there is also a ton of patents for those things, so new codecs like google webm have it difficult to be as efficient as the patented codecs without breaking patents.

So, with that information, what you describe seems to be an issue with a reference frame. Maybe a new full frame has been rendered but a partial of the old frame is also still in there. It might be a player issue, it might be a video issue (I've had similar issues with partially downloaded videos I opened with VLC, especially when fast forwarding).

For frame/screen tearing, you can look up the wikipedia page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing

It's a buffer issue with regards to the graphics card and display. The easiest fix is the aforementioned V-Sync which is in effect in most smartphones. On my PC, I always turn it V-Sync off because it creates a lag and the games feel very unresponsive to me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzari:
RE

It should be lifted to 65-70 fps because i see a difference. Example play minecraft pocket edition set fancy graphics on then try to turn the screen. now set lower graphics on... Fking big difference

Nightlies here: http://defy.tanguy.tk/jordan-nightly/

Stable Here:http://www.multiupload.com/AIWXM5HJWY

Google Apps (Gapps) http://goo-inside.me/gapps/

MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE IS RUNNING FROYO (2.2) (You will find a froyo ROM in the defy development forum)

0.[OPTIONAL] Backup apps with titanium backup (here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=en)

1.Download superoneclick (here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682)

2.In your mobile. Settings->Applications->Development (check USB debugging on)

3.Connect your phone to PC. Right click superoneclick -> open as admin ->Click ROOT. Thats it your phone is rooted.

4.Restart your mobile.

5.Download 2nd init from android market. install the 2nd init recovery. It will ask the superuser permission Accept it.

6.Uncheck the USB debugging from Settings->Applications->Development and restart the phone now.

7.It will go in to bootmenu select normal boot at now.

8.After mobile booted copy the Gapps zip and cm7 stable or nightly zip file to root of your SD card.

9.Restart the phone it will go in to boot menu or you can press vol - button when you see the blue led light.

10.Now go to recovery -> Custom recovery ->* Wipe data/factory and Wipe cache -> Install zip file from sd card(select the cm7 zip, repeat with the gapps zip)

12. Reboot. Go to app drawer and start up the defy baseband switcher. select the appropriate baseband to achieve optimal reception.

*Can do a CWM backup here [(Backup and restore -> Backup) NOTE: When restoring backup you must first flash a stock from (2.2/2.1 if the back up was done on either, and 2.3 if it was done on 2.3) as it doesnt backup the kernel]

To upgrade to nightly or from rc1 to rc1.5:

1. Download update and copy to sd

2. Go to bood menu -> recovery -> Custom recovery -> wipe cache and dalvik cache (in advanced) Install zip file from sd card(select the zip file you copied to sd card) thats it.

To downgrade to Stock rom it is very simple:

1.Download RSD lite and Motorola usb drivers to flash SBF file.

2.Download Stock froyo SBF for your region(Search xda forum)

3.Check USB debugging on your phone and connect to the pc and wait until all motorola drivers install.

4.Open RSD lite(right click and open as a administrator). It will show connected. Now select the sbf file you located on the system and click start and wait till it completes 100% process. thats it. it will flash your phone to stock froyo and it will automatically restart and boot.

Note: Some times when rebooting after RSD lite flash your phone stuck in bootloop(M logo or it continously loading in Android menu). It is better to go to stock recovery(Hold the vol - button and then power button and then release it. you will get android logo with exclamatory symbol. Press vol - and vol + button at the same time to get in to stock recovery). Select wipe data/factory and wipe cache.
