In my nexus 4 without any apps, GTA Vice city laaaaaaaags a lot, Even with medium specs.

Wondering if the people are right or my device goes like a ****.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] meangreenie:
vice city plays nice if you force all cores on and set governor to performace.. glass smooth

system tuner..

boot settings, force all cores at boot [sometimes have to turn off and back on again if not all cores come online]

set governor to peformace

when finished you can set force all cores on at boot to disabled, it works on fly
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] AppReviewBros:
You know what's strange. When playing vice city the max my CPU goes is 1242MHz. I have even oced my GPU to 478MHz but it just seems like it's not running at that speed. Obviously, is thermal throttling that's not letting the device to use its full power.

By the way, I fixed most of the lag by setting the visual effects to high instead of max and by turning down the view distance to 70.

Runs smooth on mine. Takes up a lot of room though.

Do you mean in terms of space or ram?

How does one log/measure fps, memory usage and CPU usage while gaming?

In terms of space. I will say the when i receive a text while playing the messaging app text and keyboard will lag. But playing the game is nice and smooth.

yes i think so, when i played with standard 'ondemand' it was quite awful, like it was dropping to bottom/lowest cpu settings all the time.

the game probably needs coding better for qualcomm chipsets

I just found an amazing game "dragon Slayer" from Glu that I love, but it seems like every time I try to play it, it tells me to download over 300MB of data before it starts.

Hi guys, I'm going to ask a stupid question here but I am new to android so it doesn't count :) how are you buying your paid apps? Through your card I'm guessing or Google wallet? If your using Google wallet can you tell me how you set it up if I'm in the UK, I want to add £20 from my card into my Google account to buy games and other apps, can anybody help me? Thanks for taking your time to read this much appreciated

Just downloaded this, after checking the update version it downloads 15mb every time, also this game kind of lags a bit at the loading screen. Other than that, game is great.

Nexus 4

Hi guys. I currently have iphone 3gs which is kinda old, but I would like to buy an android. i really like the nexus 4 and i would probably choose it, but what about that lag? I would like to play gta3, vice city or modern combat for instence. I watched some videos on youtube.. Even some comparison between SGS3 and nexus 4 and sgs3 runs vice city better,smoother. I don't understand... Hardware is better on the nexus isn't it? (Ram,cpu,gpu)... Is it a software issue? Maybe gta games will be optimized in their next update? Nexus even doesn't win benchmarks with its great HW. I dont like the sgs3 so I am just curious about this. I think nexus is amazing, this is the only thing I am afraid of. Can you tell me something about it please? Thanks and sorry for my english
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] AppReviewBros:
It's simple, Nexus 4 is not running at its full capacity because of thermal throttling. Lets hope the next update Google decides to push, fixes the issue.

Other than that, the phone is running blazingly fast!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] K451M:
I was in the same position as you, had a 3gs then got an iPhone 4 for free off my brother since he owed me money then I got bored of the iPhone and decided for a change, saw the nexus 4 and the waiting and like most people I couldn't get it due to the demand but my uncle got two on contract and sold me one, I can now say that I will never go back to I phones after experiencing jelly bean it really is buttery smooth, I don't have GTA but I have Dead Trigger and that runs awesome on this phone, all the people that have used this phone want it now, and watching videos on YouTube is beautiful, crisp clear, hope this helps you out mate

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Zenzic:
Very interested. But how do you connect a ps3 controller to the Nexus 4 without usb otg capabilities?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] sphroth:
Requirements:

PC

PS3 Controller

PS3 Controller USB Cable

Sixaxis App (Found in Play Store for $1.99)

Sixaxis Pair Tool (Google Sixaxis Pair Tool, should be a link from Dancing Pixel Studios)

IMPORTANT:

After doing this you may not be able to use your PS3 controller with the PS3.

If this happens, simply plug your PS3 controller back into your PS3 to get it to work again.

-- I am not responsible for your phone, PS3, PC or anything else you may have broke when following my directions, this includes but not limited to cats, rocking chairs, food and silly string.

Steps:

1) Install Sixaxis Pair Tool on your PC

2) Plug your PS3 controller into your PC with a USB cable

3) Install the App on your device and find your local Bluetooth Address.

4) Run the Sixaxis Pair Tool program on your PC

5) Type in the local Bluetooth address from your phone into the program on your PC

6) In the program, set as Master and close program.

7) Unplug your controller and make sure your controller has red lights on it. If not, hit the clear looking button in the middle of your PS3 controller.

8) Hit the start button on your phone within the Sixaxis App.

I got all of this info from a YouTube video. There are a lot of videos out there to tell you how to do this, I can't find the specific one I used to get the information from. I do remember the video had 1000+ views and the guy was chewing gum while talking/giving directions. I had headphones on and it was like someone was chewing in my ear, it sucked.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tommmtom:
Bluetooth using the sixaxis app :)! PM if you want it with your Bluetooth address (turn on Bluetooth then go to settings>about>status) then it'll work right away :)

Stock Kernel with embedded .ko modules (package revision 121216)

This is a modified stock boot.img (original available HERE) that includes unmodified zImage compiled by me from kernel source with all modules embedded inside a single neat boot.img file using realtime injection from boot ramdisk.

This is for International One X+, NOT for AT&T

This means you will get working wifi with any ROM that previously had problems and with no extra flashing/tampering with *.ko files.

Just fastboot the boot.img and you're set.

You can use this package and any of its parts, scripts and ideas inside. Feel free to mention my name :D

Enjoy

[HTC One X+] nik3r:
Embedding framework for kernel developers

I'm also releasing the scripts I used to automate the embedding process for other kernel developers to use.

It is pretty simple, but does its job. The sample platform contains stock kernel above.

MAP:

bootimg.base - put your base "boot.img" here

zImage.new - put your desired kernel zImage here

structure.new - contains sample init.rc, elitekernel.sh with deploying script and modules folder for your .ko's . Everything in this folder will go to rootfs.

(you will need to change the init.rc and transfer the script fire block if you change the base img file)

USAGE:

"sh extract" - extracts and primes the base boot.img, do not modify anything outside the 3 folders above, it will get deleted on compile.

"sh compile" - injects modules and scripts into the ramdisk and compiles a new boot.img to new "bootimg.out" folder.

Feel free to modify to suit your envirnment and comment.

I don't think so. This is as far as i know just stock kernel but with all necessary modules embedded, so you don't need to flash them separately after installing this kernel. No further tweaks or changes in this kernel.

Hi Guys

I'm taking a look at a friends Desire which has stopped booting beyond the white HTC logo. Fastboot is still accessible and I've attempted to clear storage with no luck. I also tried to find the newest RUU on shipped-roms for H3G UK (2.25), but this complained that I was trying to downgrade the bootloader and exited. Is it possible to create a gold card without a booting phone easily?

The phone is currently running 2.29.771.3 and branded for H3G/Three UK. Is this software version available elsewhere?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
Read bortaks guide in my sig, for a goldcard u would have to put ur sdcard into another phone and do it that way. In the guide, go down to resources and there a link to the 2.3 gb upgrade from HTCDev and u can run that coz u dont need a goldcard, its made for pretty much all, brands, region etc etc. It will work coz i used it before and im H3G aswell.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RR-99:
Sorry if this is a basic question. I have looked around but not got a direct answer.

With WiFi and mobile data both switched on, the Note will (I guess) always use the WiFi first.

If the WiFi is on the edge of coverage, will it switch back and forward between the two or stick to Mobile Data? Is there anything I can do to adjust this operation?

If the WiFi is off during sleep and I unlock and immediately check email, will Mobile Data be used right away or will it wait until after checking for a WiFi signal?

I picked up a Poetic Slimbook case for $5 shipped. I now own a case and 2 full body skins for a phone I do not own.

The case is scheduled to ship November 30, 2012. They indicate that the intro pricing will expire once they are in stock.

I can not give a personal recommendation for Poetic cases as I have not used them before, but have heard good things about them.

Below is an email I received from Poetic:

Looks pretty good! I wanted to get a slimmer flip case, but for $5 shipped, I can live with this. I'll rarely use the wallet portion, but it's nice to be an option. Hope it's easy to slide the phone in and out often as I'll probably only use the case when I'm out.

Thanks for the heads up, OP.
