RR3

i didnt want to look like an idiot, so as i have not played RR3 since recent update, i have just had a go on a busy track to make sure its still running good. it is. i dont notice any lagging (in any camera mode or with the rear view/side mirrors)

after updating to JB my phone was just generally slow as hell (the flicking powersaver on and off technique worked, but had to keep doing it every so often), so i though what the heck, and did a factory reset (as many people had suggested in the 4x JB thread). after the reset i just went about scrapping all the bloatware and anything else i dont use; google+, etc... before doing a fresh install my apps/games. and the phone on the whole is generally very fast and smooth (apart from if i enable the screen flip function on JB for the home screen itself = slight lag. but who needs the home screen flipping to landscape anyway).

i use the 'RR3 graphics' app and put it on extra high, and also use the 'CPU master - free' when gaming to keep the CPU from dropping from maximum (although i'm not 100% sure it makes much difference when not using). and the game doesn't seem to have any bouts of unresponsiveness/lag + as far as im concerned runs smooth.

i just tested and got an 'antutu benchmark' score of; 13114 (which places it just above a nexus7 and below a nexus10), this is quite low, compared to a htc oneX or galaxy S3 (both over 15000), but shows that the phone is more than capable for games like RR3.

if your having trouble with lag on your 4X, although i have not felt the need to mess with anything myself, this thread look promising for improving gaming performance; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2217990 (all due thanks to the threads creator, and i hope linking like this in within forum rules).

i hear that NFSMW is a good test of a phones gaming ability, maybe ill get it soon and see how it runs for me.

good luck and sorry if i was not much help.

How the hell did you manage to install all these games on internal SD? :D

Can we swap internal and external cards?

dark meadow

i forgot to mention dark meadow.

i think this game looks lovely and runs great for me (although its 'on rails'; id liken to 'horn', movement system i think slows the games pace a little).

i know this game does not officially 'work' on our phone, but using the app 'device spoofer' form the store you can download properly without any problems (well worth a quid for an app that will let you try out free and paid games that we normally cannot get from the store due to developers choosing not to support our device, but work fine with the phones specs.).

N.O.V.A. 3 -- laggy

Renaissance Blood THD -- laggy

Puddle THD -- little laggy but playable

Tested on V20a
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
Kind of. This app spoofs a folder on the external sd as a folder in the internal sd, so you can create a folder on external sd, transfer files and make the phone think the files are still in the original folder.

With this and a 32gb sdcard anything is possible :D

sorry i should have said. i got the crash after the splash screen issue when i initially installed (after unreal logo, etc..). but searched the forum to find the work around.

what worked for me was by installing properly from the store (using 'device spoofer'), then uninstall the app. the uninstall left the sd files still on my device (Internal storage\Android\obb\com.phosphorgames.DarkMeadow....). and then installing the app again using the 'modded for any devices' apk (can find a download using google).

hope this helps.

Ahh right. Device spoofer just gave me soft brick too! I can do without this game :D

[LG Optimus 4X HD] aaron_gavin:
sorry for any confusion. i should have been more specific. to be honest the main appeal of the game is the way it looks and atmospheric story telling. the gameplay itself gets a bit tedious, especially if you like action or open world.

I like that sort of game, just couldn't try it cos I got a brick! :p thanks anyway

[LG Optimus 4X HD] skryptus:
As one of the people interested to see which games I'll get to run once I get my 4X, I'd ask everyone to start referring what FW version you have on your phone. Saying you have lag on one game means little when we know FW versions like 10f not to be game-friendly :)

[LG Optimus 4X HD] UIQrules:
20a - Horn: minimal lag outside the large hub-area. I'm not completely sure -- it's possible that they're using a plugin for tegra specific effects. But I wonder if it's just the same as with other unreal 3 engine games at the moment - that the areas with infinite amounts of overdraw lag no matter what, while the effects are kind of underdimensioned (even if they don't particularly look that way). Essentially that it's primarily rendering specific optimisations, not area+effect specific optimisation.

Riptide: Must buy, stable framerate. Tegra specific effects -> waves, splashes, physics nudges. Engine definitely made to exploit number of shader units available.

Puddle THD: Reverse approach, variant 2 - existing engine made to accelerate in-game specific logic (physics! Science!). Actually this game has fewer lag-spikes on the physics/fluid-intense :p transformations compared to the xbox360/ps3 version, that run in the same resolution and with the same visual effects. Overall framerate is probably lower, though.

LOL Real Racing 3 Lags like Hell on all Versions on LG Optimus 4x HD , dont know how you say or mean Perfekt :silly:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] roy8846:
Well I have only played 2 races but experience NO lag at all??

Once the OP is updated fully (big list to get through lol), I will add other opinions on how games run from this thread ok ;)

Someone else has already stated that RR3 works perfectly for them as well ;)

From this thread..

"

Real racing 3: Again playable, if use graphics app on medium is really smooth"

"Real Racing 3 smooth on low quality settings with no lag"

[LG Optimus 4X HD] mmm273:
Yes yo can change graph. via app on play store, but after that game runs only online
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Winudert:
I can play Real Racing 3 with Medium settings (RR3 have Low, Medium, High and Ultra), but Vice City lags sometimes. To be clear, Vice City is not even supported for Optimus 4X HD.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Captain Sisko:
On V10H GT Racing Academy ran but the whels appeared as white blocks, not tested with V20A

Real Racing was a little laggy on V10H runs smoother on V20A but I didnt know about the graphics settings!!

[LG Optimus 4X HD] xxVRxx:
9MM works flawless on V20a

one interesting thing, phone doesn't even get hot like when playing Dead Trigger
[LG Optimus 4X HD] optimuswhite:
update with v20a, some games getting very slow.

I use hidden menu to show cpu usage, it show that cpu only active 1 core.

then i flash v20b HK, now cpu can use all core, but frequency is varied.

so it still suffer low framerate on some condition.

I'm playing Vector (parkour style running game), sometimes it lags.

also Real Racing 3, minor lags when cars crowded entering a corner.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Winudert:
About Real Racing 3 lags. RR3 default in O4X HD is High. Crappy LG software handles games awfully, so if you don't want to see lag, you have to play RR3 with Medium settings, not High or Ultra.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] :
Finally downloaded RR3Graphics app and killed the lag entirely. stupid EA Games really can't fix any thing for sure, even their PC battlefield games.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mmm273:
Yeah but if you change graphics, game will stars only if youbonline, so no more offline playing...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Winudert:
My friend have HTC One X and he is able to play RR3 at High without any lag. I hate LG so much :silly:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] :
negative. still can play offline and after restart. see attachment.

first two was from the same race, 3rd a second race after the restart
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mmm273:
Many thanks.. I dont know i must reatsrt phone.. It all working now

.. Thans again
[LG Optimus 4X HD] :
no problem. now everyone can enjoy more RR3 with less heat on flights.:p

Anyway if you get a pop-up box during race loading screen saying trying to connect

ignore it, your game is still loading.

i'd got that while i was roaming w/o data or wifi but the game still loaded nonetheless.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Winudert:
Are you graphics is low? I use medium and mine graphics looks more better, than yours.

nope, medium graphics.

You know what we really should do? Get a poll going for unsatisfied tegra users and submit to Gameloft. I've emailed them so many times in the past and not once have they fixed a game, yet they can because there are lots of games with awesome graphics that run just fine. What's even funnier is their newer games with graphical options still lagging :D

@ Those who experience lags playing NFS MW, get werewolf JB, install CM 10.2 and overclock your GPU to 600 mhz, set voltage to 1350, turn off 3D scaling and underclock-undervolt your CPU to 1.4 ghz and -65 mV(I have variant 1, if you have a higher variant try 1.5 ghz and undervolt futher.).This prevents lags spikes (not completly, but they happen rarely and are smaller)

I have tested :

Ironman 3 - Lags and have low quality, bad optimizations.With werewolfJB and settings I listed above, only jungle map lags.

NFS MW - Have small lag spikes (when race begins mostly)

RealRacing 3 - Have 0 lag

MC4 - Lags when enemy units spawn.After they are done spawning I get good fps with very little spikes while turning around.

Nova 3 - I have 0 lag unless enemy units are spawning.And in some maps, the game stores every texture in your RAM(including the places you've been to when chapter began) and when you get closer to end of the chapter it begins to lag.Poor optimization.

Beach buggy blitz - Nice graphics, well optimized and 0 lags.

Asphalt 8 - Have lags on some maps (the one with desert).Stopped playing since it became free, something is screwed up and the map won't load.

Dead trigger 1 & 2 - Zero lags, good graphics.

Temple Run OZ with HD assets - good graphics, beautiful environment.Had very little lag spikes before I OC'd my GPU.

Click thanks if I helped :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] black@pirate:
NFS MW and MC4 runs smoothly on most aosp based rom + iodak or ww. No need to undervolt or oc gpu to 600. I think for most games, 520 is enough. Dead trigger 1 n 2 is so well optimized that even if i uc the cpu to 1 ghz, it still runs fine. RR 3 is also well optimized. I haven't test nova 3 and iron man but i doubt they need gpu to oc 600mhz. ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] black@pirate:
Anyone hesitating to buy rayman fiesta run, go ahead and buy it. It is a great sequel and if you like jungle run u will definitely love it. I saw many comments in play store regarding slow downs and low fps even in high end smart phs like s4 and one, so i m alittle doubtful about it. But, it works great in o4x. No slowdown whatsoever. :thumbup:

When you ask for multi window, are you asking about running floating apps, such as browser and media player, while say playing a game? If so, you could download sidebar and some floating apps from the play store. Sidebar will launch any app while in an app, and if you have some floating apps you could launch those mini apps anywhere.

[HTC Wildfire S] yankeeDDL:
Hi,

I am having some GPS issues and I don't quite know how to fix them.

First of all, I have tried different ROMs starting with JellyKing, CM10.1, MarvellousCM10 and they all behave the same way.

The GPS simply does not get a fix, even when I let it sit outdoor for several minutes (I even left it 30 minutes).

There are times, however, where it gets the fix right away, it would work till I close the app that is using it (Endomondo, Runkeeper, for example) then it won't work again. I was not able to find any way to reproduce the "working" GPS.

The fact that it works, albeit rarely, makes me think it's not an HW issue, but I'm not so sure anymore.

What did I try already:

1) I followed this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1563226

The fix -supposedly- was tested with the Wildfire S.

Made no difference.

2) I installed FasterFix

The App simply did not work for me. Whichever server I picked, it said that an error had occurred

3) I installed FasterGPS

The app worked, in the sense that I selected a server and it updated the gps.conf file.

It made no effect though.

I have installed "GPS Status" to test it and I was (never) able to get a fix since I installed it.

All of the above was done with the rom from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1878031) but I had the same behavior with other roms ...

Any suggestion?
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
None of those patches will help you.It's just a placebo.

However, GPS is not working on cm ROMs as it works on sense based ROMs.

It does work, but it needs a lot more time to get a fix, especially the first one.It takes around 10-15 min, or even less if you're under the clear sky.
