I confirm that it doesn't work on revo 4hd + siyah :(
[Galaxy S II General] Toss3:
Nothing to do with the rom, but apparently the game doesn't like Siyah's kernel.

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

Now I've tried all four versions of the game, and concluded that the original version was the best for the SGS2. MSAA doesn't appear to be working and unrolling textures etc only results in stutters and doesn't improve the visuals at all. Really wish there was a way to force SSAA through higher resolution rendering and downscaling.
[Galaxy S II General] juancaretta:
Wrong, Chainfire3D can enable MSAA without running a plug-in. I'm using it in every 3D game to force MSAA 4x, and the quality difference is huge.

sincerely, from my experience i do not find the AA part very anti-aliased, edges are not soften and IF something worked by enabling it, it simply smoothens the textures.
[Galaxy S II General] davelinders:
Not all textures are good here.

And it's not looking nice at all.

After closing the game it won't start anymore.

Maybe we must wait for the sg2 version.
[Galaxy S II General] gnan10:
the game quality is horrible..........

due to the low resolution the sharpness off textures and details are very bad......in this regard...my friend's iphone4s is superb even with a small screen...but game quality is much better.......

feeling sad......
[Galaxy S II General] Westi01:
Thanks! I got it now by redownloading data :)

ERedowloaded data now it is 452mb instead of 431.

[Galaxy S II General] SupraN0va:

[Galaxy S II General] juancaretta:
The models and textures are pretty high quality, but for some reason it's rendering at a lower resolution. Maybe the game can be modded to force a rendering resolution?

Also, does the accelerometer work? It doesn't seem to work on mine.
[Galaxy S II General] ThatBadAssMofo:
What purpose does enabling the accelerometer have? I can't seem to figure it out.
[Galaxy S II General] Toss3:
Considering they already have different versions available, I don't see why they wouldn't provide SGS2/note users with the iPhone version, as it looks much better. Still, it's GTA III on a phone.. ;)

[Galaxy S II General] knightnz:
Those complaining about the graphics quality might want to go and find some YouTube videos from when the game was released 10 YEARS ago. You may be remembering it as looking better than it did.

It was one of the earlier "big" games from the PS2 era, and the PS2 only had a 300Mhz singlecore CPU and 150Mhz GPU.

[Galaxy S II General] AJ.Rockwell:
So far I'm loving the game, back in the days I didn't have a pc THAT good enough to run GTA3 well... and now I'm enjoying it on my phone smooth as butter... for a few weeks I'll be going to sleep with earphones and a charger plugged in to my phone playing GTA :D And I HOPE they port Vice City also, as that installment is just about awesome (the environment!)

Anyhoo, for the users who fail to install or run the game:

First make sure you have at least 800MB free on your sdcard for it to download properly without any "connection lost" errors, the installer doesn't check for the free space :(

If you get stuck on the loading screen, you have to delete sdcard/data/android/com.rockstar.gta3 folder and redownload the data again using a stable wifi connection.

PS works like charm with VillainRom 3.0, SiyahKernel 2.5.1, vr I/O scheduler, max core frequency 800 (using dynamic hotplug/dual core mode in 2nd core) and ondemandx governor. Game seems to utilize dualcore pretty well, as there is a little lag with just one core on.

F/Enter = Get into\out of vehicle

Back = Return to menu

Space = Jump\Brake

Direction keys for directions & accelerate\steer

Punch\Shoot

Next\Previous weapon

Unless I've missed obvious instructions somewhere, it's just a case of trial & error. If I could work out where my mini bluetooth keyboard has gone it might expedite the process a bit...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] schaggo:
The phone will be unrooted in the process of flashing a stock ROM. Did you pull a nandroid when your phone was (almost) still stock? You could restore that against the theme. As for root/unroot, I did jot down my original version: XXKJ4. I find that ROM, I'll be fully stock again. Check the thread of the root solution you used, there might be instructions on how to unroot. Also there is a dedicated how-to-unroot-thread in the dev section.

SAMMOBILE

Anyone in the UK who like me purchased their note from carphone warehouse, if you hop over to sammobile, you will find for the N7000, a nice stock rom listed for the note, and it is the carphone warehouse version..

I have it as backup to flash just in case it ever has to be reurned, but for the record, for those that did not know, As long as it has a rom that is stock for your region on it when you return it then its fine, Flashing or upgrading a stock regional rom does not affect your warranty, so dont worry about binary counters.

I think custom roms and kernels do affect warranty tho.

Now I know this is largely an opinion based question but figured I'd get some good feedback. I am a former incredible owner and with the incredible I had MANY choices of ROMs that were all fast, great battery improvements and completely stable. I was a huge fan of CM7 on the incredible. I finally just rooted my Thunderbolt and am looking for the same. I just want a ROM that is stable, decent speed and with better battery life. So far I flashed a sense 3.5 ROM (InfectedROM) and it is has many bugs, little bit better battery and actually feels slower than stock. CM7 says it is still in beta so I have been reluctant to try it. Does anybody have any advice on the most solid ROM out there for the Thunderbolt? Thank you :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
Any BAMF ROM. They are almost completely bug free, smooth, and offer better battery life over stock. CM7, even though it's not officially supported yet, doesn't have too many bugs. The battery life, in my opinion, just doesn't match up to Sense ROMs.

One piece of advice I'll give you for better battery life. Don't overclock. It just isn't necessary. The phone is fast enough at 1GHz, and you won't see too much of a change overclocking, just worse battery life. (Benchmark scores are meaningless. They do not reflect every day performance)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
What kind of mAh drain do you experience on bamf roms? I stay between 15-25 on CM7 with the screen off and peak between 150-350 with screen on. BT is always on, as well as GPS. (Never use wifi, so can't speak on that) Oh, and I just Juice defender, before JD I would average 35-40. Sync mail with imap every 15 and exchange on push. Underclocked with screen off to 360 and run 1024 with screen on. I don't OC unless I'm plugged in. Then its only 1209.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayjd1650:
I'll also cast a vot for Team BAMF. I am on BAMF forever 1.10 and I flashed the devs beta 3++ kernel build after because I saw a bit of lag with the stock kernel. You absolutely need to remember to wipe before flashing the rom, though. I neglected to and the lockscreen didn't even work.

Skyraider 1.3. Gives the best balance of htc sense functionality, battery life, customizations, and speed. I would stay away from sense 3.0 and 3.5 roms. They initially seem smooth; however in everyday use they will lag on you. The phone is just not designed for 3.0/3.5 sense. The 2.1/3.0 hybrid roms work well which is what the skyraider 1.3 rom is. If you don't like sense, then run CM 7.1.1 or Liquid Smooth 3.2. The non-sense roms will be a little faster, but I like the widgets that come with sense.

Update: Forgot MIUI rom. Very nice if you like the apple-esk look and feel. Very smooth.

Liquid Gingerbread 3.2

Liquid's AOSP 3.2 is by far the best rom I've used, it's based on CM7, which is technically still a beta, but I think that's just because the official support on the CM website is slated for CM9, I have no issues with Liquid 3.2 and I tend to be picky about dealing with bugs, and battery life is good the way it comes, better than Sense based roms, and you can configure the kernel for batterysaver which makes it even better.

You won't get many votes for this b/c the developer isn't going to update it (at least i don't think) b/c they have moved on to another phone.

EDIT: i did a search for you if you're inclined to dnld this rom. in the Q&A bolt forum there is one i located that path on your phone you may need to find using root explorer to run flash.
