I am not sure if coindroid added these binaries to his ROM. Ask him.

This is for all who have ICS without the binaries pre-baked and would like to add these for performance results.

Thank you,

This seems like the new GL version doesnt it? is it ES GL 2.0 2184622?
[HTC Sensation] El Pako87:
Ehi guys this new update worked flawlessly for me.

Before the upgrade I had 2697 (2D 490, 3D 2195) with quadrant, after the update 3608 (2D 495, 3D 2220).

As you can see the improvement is not so incredible in graphics, but CPU has increased from 3231 to 6549 :eek: that's incredible! Also MEM increased around 600 points.

I'm running ARHD 6.6.3 XE with Sebastian FM 1.4.1 kernel.

Anyone experienced the same?
[HTC Sensation] malaivica:
Hi,

just tried this out on Leedroids V7.3

But not with quadrant, i used nenamark2.

So 218 drivers fix skype problems? thats actually good news

anyway be sure to test with nenamark2 and not quadrant!! quadrant is not for 3D/GL

nenamark2 is ;i
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
where are the 218 drivers ?

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------

its the "New GL" on OP of CoinDroid ?
[HTC Sensation] belblade:
so, my experience:

my rom (aopk milestone 5) came with 213 drivers which gave me poor performance in nenamark 2 (on average 38)

then flashed 218 (new gl package from coindroid thread) and had big improvements in nenamark 2 : 52 on average

only problem: some instability/glitches and instagram no longer works (and i DO use it :)

then flashed the drivers from this topic (213) and got a lot better scores on nenamark 2(also around 50) compared to my "original 213" and now instagram does work :)

so my conclusion (take it for what's it's worth) : some roms already have 213 embedded but they seem to be different from the 213's in this thread

i'm staying with 213 from this thread for now as it's the best mix of performance and stability :)
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
I can confirm that this works on Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 :D
[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
yup, those
[HTC Sensation] Straightflush:
I'm getting some battery drain on AOKP as well
[HTC Sensation] Superpiper1972:
This makes sense,

I thought the OP version was 218.

Vorbeth is using 213 in his ROM

Vorbeth's wont run MC3 on my phone

The OP will.

Hmm...
[HTC Sensation] cwk_and:
So far,can someone comfirm that does openGL 218 work on sense 3.6??:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
It does, except for Instagramm app (but I suppose that is not linked to sense 3.6), all seems to be working just fine.

[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
It fdoes great for me. The question is... What do you use Instagram (213) or skype (218)?

[HTC Sensation] zooster:
What about battery drain?
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:

[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
No noticable drain change, neither with 213 nor 218.

[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Why every1 is talking about 119 drivers while the headline of the thread is 220 ? :D
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Read a few pages backwards, you might understand...

[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Hi,

Xda app isn't showing pics if 2D forced GPU rendering is active, but if you rotate your screen while an empty bitmap frame is visible, the generated redraw will show the picture.

Not perfect, but an acceptable workaround for me ;)

Thought I'd share...

JP.

PS: I'm on 218.
[HTC Sensation] zcdg:
Tested on latest ICS stock just deodexed and rooted myself:

218 - skype is good, instagram - bad.

213 - skype is green, instagram - good.

Didn't find any kind of glitches on 218. So 218 is way to go - Skype is good. Performance is better on 218 (1.5-2 times better).

Who needs this instagram:).

Drain looks the same.
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Thanks mate, I did but I dont understood ..

Pd: only flash zip via recovery? Thats all steps which are needed?
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
There is an updated version 213 (which you can find attached to the first post).

This is supposedly the latest version for Sensation and is faster that for instance the 213 version that is included in AHRD 6.6.3 (don't ask me why there is a difference if it's the same version, it is a fact).

Now there is also a version 218, which is supposedly a port from the One X or so, that seems to be even faster, but less stable. The link to that one is somewhere in the thread (sorry don't have it handy).

Hope that clears things for you ;-)

JP.
[HTC Sensation] zcdg:
Yes it is what you need -flash zip in recovery.
[HTC Sensation] sambaeallegria:
I'm on CoinDroid 1.52 and 218 version, Skype works and Instagram too.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Quoted from the OP:

Pre Requisites fulfilled (Root) (ICS)

Install "Adreno ICS Update" to the root of your SD Card

Disable Signature Verification in Recovery

Install zip via Recovery

Fix Permissions

Reboot

ENJOI!!!
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Yes, saw this but dont understood why so many steps if only one is needed :P
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
So Link for 218 is not in OP if I understood right? Cant find the Link in previous posts :D
[HTC Sensation] zcdg:
Don't have to do all steps - just check signature check is off and flash zip. I did it many times now with all version and all good installed.
[HTC Sensation] sjknight413:
218 is the new_gl zip file in the coindroid OP if i remember correctly.

i actually introduced 218 on this topic few days back and now its all getting messy and stuff since this is actually for 213.

just had to make a topic since already i have explained some things more then 5times, and everyday its the same again

if you use gl 2184622 then please report in here!

props for gjcamp making this topic, talked with him in private
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Well I just checked my GL with OpenGLES and it shows I already have OpenGL ES 2.0 2131267! But I don't know how it got there, since I haven't flashed it? I'm on VI 4.0.2, so was it included in the rom?
[HTC Sensation] kairi_zeroblade:
Yes as also Mike1986 said its the same drivers that comes on the Sensation ICS upgrade..
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Oh ok, guess I'll go for 218 then. :)
[HTC Sensation] kairi_zeroblade:
yup its available on the Coindroid thread either way the 218 driver has its own followers thread so be advised as we don't want to offend the OP post..

still Thanks for the OP's initiative that this was furtherly discussed/raised here on the Sensation dev section..
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Did he? Why he decided to include it in the latest version of his ROM then? Could you please give us more info about this or quote mike's post? Thanks

AFAIK this drivers are a newer version and wasnt included before.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
adb logcat showing GL_INVALID_ENUM

Hi guys, i have my phone now connected via adb logcat and i've noticed this line and that cought my attention:

E/Adreno200-ES20( 910): <qgl2DrvAPI_glTexParameteriv:416>: GL_INVALID_ENUM

It's all over the place specially after locking the screen, though it doesn't seem to follow any parameter it just appear randomly. :confused:

Any advice on this? could this be somehow related to new drivers? i don't force gpu rendering and im on 213 drivers version included in ARHD 6.6.4 by default. What other info could be helpful? this is repetitive with the screen on and off. I just made a full clean install, superwiped including sd card formatted. More info of my setup in my signature.

Anyone can confirm this?

Thanks guys

EDIT: i've added some more screenshots with screen on and off after a while

EDIT2: Found a way to force this error message. Open weather app, while the weather animation is running this line is the only thing that logcat shows
[HTC Sensation] Sinistah_:
after flashing this and I'm unsatisfied how can I go backwards? Just restore backup? And if I flash a Rom will I have to reflash this
[HTC Sensation] kalimpula1:
I would say Ordroid :D
[HTC Sensation] ^dino^:
so with this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1551714 you have 4295 in quadrant?
[HTC Sensation] Rick_1995:
Totally disappointed by OP, Just checked the crc of the files included with the ones released by qualcomm long ago for adreno 200, and they're the same !

xda was the last place i expected somebody to lie.
[HTC Sensation] kalimpula1:
Yes, right CoinDroid it calls now, sorry :eek:

But I mean this ROM.

I took some out of Autostart and CPU-Setting is "Performance" with forced second CPU to be everytime online.

And I delete much Bloat and Mess. Now it is very small and fast ;)

I know, ths isn't a fair Test, because "Performance" will kill your BatteryLife extremely!!!

But with this Setup is the Sensation on Sense 4 as Fast as MiUI on HD2 :D:D:D:p
[HTC Sensation] kareemsamman:
Does it work on stock ICS Sensation XE ROM (rooted of course)?Anyone?
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Qualcomm released them on 28th March, that's not exactly long ago.
[HTC Sensation] zcdg:
Yes it works perfectly. I use latest stock XE rooted ROM, but deodexed.

Improve FPS and skype is not green. If you use 218 version mentioned here, but not OP version.
[HTC Sensation] Superpiper1972:
The only way ive managed to get MC3 working is by flashing this driver and then clearing cache and dalvic and fixing perms.

Nothing else works no matter what rom or drivers or kernel.

Even then, it only works sporadically.

Bizarre. Id love to know why MC3 is so fussy...
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Updated it, rebooted and ran quadrant. Disappointing. When from 2300 using coindroid to 2003, ran again 1987. WTF?
[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
try with nenamark2 (uses the files that u change(GL) my sensation gets higher 3D and 2D then One X but does that mean our Sensation is better? no

it means quadrant is worthless for 3D benchmarking and all these files are about is GL/3D/2D

or try 218 GL http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1643472

Hi,

For egl error , i pick egl driver fron 6.6.3 .

I post on the forum ARHD http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25889989&postcount=68873

the egl driver version is 2131267 .

Apparently not exactly the same as those of the zip in the first page of the topic.

The same errors happen.
[HTC Sensation] gjcamp:
I never lied!!!

I am disappointed that a recognized developer such as you would resort to calling someone a liar especially if you have not fully read this thread or have done any research at all.

So you are saying and I quote from the OP "I have created this Recovery Flashable Patch to Install the Qualcomm Updated Adreno Drivers" means that I personally created the driver itself.

Qualcomm Developers Website

You are too smart for me.
[HTC Sensation] shinigenEddy:
Is this safe to flash on the T-Mobile Galaxy SII T989? Great work by the way! =)
[HTC Sensation] mffu:
please don't. My T989 did not boot up after flashing. As the matter of the fact, even the similar egl files from the leaked ICS rom for Skyrocket won't do you any good either. They apparently have different library dependancies.
[HTC Sensation] Azerox:
Dont forget to check force 2d @ developer settings.

Otherwise it wont have any effect xD
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Has anybody got 4000 on quadrant with this? Using newest ordroid Rom with 1.5ghz, applied the update as well using performance power governer. Went from 2500 to 3500 but can anybody get it to 4000? And if so what setup are you using?
[HTC Sensation] zooster:
I did, with fauxkernel @1. 73ghz. Got 4054
[HTC Sensation] l2icky:
Here is my latest.

This is set at 1780 but the rest is the same. I am also undervolted by 50 from default Bricked Kernel.

Edit: Just got better.
[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
no offense, but most of of your results don't say anything since Quadrant is really bull**** let me explain why.

-Quadrant is hackable by multiple applications which let u cheat with it.

-One X gets lower 3D/2D then Sensation, which shows how bad the application is cause that is just not possible.

-Quadrant does more mem/cpu/i-o testing then GL so its useless to test those gl drivers with quadrant.

-Quadrant's points change by every benchmark, if you test with NenaMark2 you will get much more reliable results.

And i want to warn all of you,

Most rom's include the OpenGLES 2.0 2184622 instead of the GL files from this thread, so with the drivers from this thread u will actually remove the newer OpenGL files which came from One S series.

be sure to check your gl version with opengles extension viewer.
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I want to flash this to make my ordroid Rom faster but in scared bro. Im kind of a newb. Idk maybe I will try this. But if anything goes wrong can't i just restore my cwm backup to fix it right? So no harm done?

Correct, no harm done.

[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
u gave me a thanks for my post, where i stated to check your openGL version, guess u dind't do that uh?.

OrDroid uses a newer version then this! so its actually not that smart to flash these over it.

OrDroid uses 2184622 version, this thread is 2131267 version

soon roms will "ship" with 218 version and people are gonna flash 213 version.. laughing hard here
[HTC Sensation] kolos1:
This driver is the same as "Flashable (Adreno) OpenGL ES 2.0 2184622 [SKYPE FIX] [FPS increase]" or is it different drivers?
[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
Worked for me too, the GPL error is gone so... back to the old on 6.6.3 here too, not wort having my logcat full of errors :S Can't be good!

Btw I'm having some SQLitedatabase errors shown there, where should I ask about it? A little bit confused here with it!

Is it normal to see a lot of "Errors" in the logcat? (System Tuner, the app I use to see logcat marks them as errors I mean)
[HTC Sensation] l2icky:
This is an older version.
[HTC Sensation] Sage:
So is this still the latest driver? Anyway to tell if i'm already running it?

Do i just reflash bricked kernel to revert?

thanks guys :)
[HTC Sensation] AndroidNeophyte:
check this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1643472

OP also suggested an app to use to check for your GPU driver...

flashing kernel doesnt revert it... you have to make a backup before flashing the driver...

to revert; you have to restore backup or flash the driver you had before...
[HTC Sensation] mike2nl:
+1

sometimes this recognized developer named guys are really strange.

- Only his own stuff is the best.

- Have they forgotten where they come from?

- They are now recognized developer because of us, the users. We make them because we use them stuff.

Don't forget the power of the users !!!

I think XDA must be think twice before a normal user became a recognized developer when this is the result. Jesus, some of these people are really crazy.

I don't know, they aren't the newest for sure.

Ive been able to get 54.5 fps on NenaMark with previous OrDroid versions which had GL version; [OpenGL ES 2.0 2184622]

This "update" contains [OpenGL ES 2.0 2131267] which is obviously older, OrDroid_New_GL.zip has the 218 version.

This is what i had with OrDroid newer GL version few weeks back;

and thats on 1512MHz, tho instagram does not work with [OpenGL ES 2.0 2184622], but i dont care. (it kinda works, but not able to add effects to pictures)

CoinDroid has it confirmed that it uses this update from main post.

btw; you can check your GL version with "OpenGLES Extensions Viewer" from store

[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
i don't dare to say, but you could try if you make nandroid ;I havent touched a sense 3.6 rom in a while.

you can find the zip here, what i can tell from my own experience is that things like Flash are really improved by the new gl, its just strange that we have so many different versions now.

the new gl from OrDroid(now CoinDroid) came from the One S rom i think, later got removed due to instagram problems, i always flashed it back tho.

He's talking about OrDroid's(CoinDroid's) new GL version which is even newer. See version numbers.

And that i don't know, since it came from Sense 4.0 rom. You have to test it yourself.

So according to the feeback of many users, it's looking nicer for me to flash this, however, what about GB ROMS? Lets assume if people decide to roll back to GB somehow and flash this patch in it, will it put any negative effect in the overall performance? Very very important question if this patch is only intended for ICS.
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
It is only meant for ICS, except someone else compile from the source to make it compatible with GB.
