Am still having the same problem after going thru ur settings...:(:(:(:(
[Android Apps and Games] Mintree:
I would still like some help on this if anyone knows...

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] CrisR82:
Just mess around with the settings, there aren't that many combinations, you can try pretty much everything in 10-15 minutes.

And I'd recommend posting what ROM and Android version you're using too when asking for help.

I'd be happy to help, but unless someone donates me a Galaxy S3 I cant really do it lol
[Android Apps and Games] Mintree:
I am using SGS3 with 4.3 rooted.

Using the GLtool that I got from this thread.

I first got the APK from just by googling and tried that. Then I saw that in your post it was the kindle fire HD version so I am currently using that.

I feel like I tried many of the combination of the settings although I'm pretty much doing it blindly not knowing what it does. I figure I have to use the adreno 320 info so I keep with that.

I wonder if its just not possible with the GS3, but I would have guessed that the gs3 would be able to run this.

Is this app work on Samsung galaxy s plus 9001 , which version should I use ???
[Android Apps and Games] CrisR82:
I've fully beaten it on the Galaxy S2 [it did crash 1-2 times at random in-game but that's about it] so I doubt it's hardware-horse-power related in your case.

EDIT: ...fun fact - The Walking Dead season 1 for Android was just released 5 minutes ago for all devices, episode 1 free, the rest are IAP

Yes it works, use the one in this topic, or better yet - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.n0n3m4.gltools
[Android Apps and Games] ahmed dzico:
how i use this app ??
[Android Apps and Games] CrisR82:
Download, install, open app, select game, pick settings, exit app, start the game with the changed settings.
[Android Apps and Games] josepica481:
Hello friends, thank you for this application, I have bought it all in the playstore to contribute of some form, but I have some questions, am a user advanced with the LG G2, there uses a graphical chip Adreno 330, now I put as example the game Modern Combat 4, using this application with Mali-T604 they improve very much the graphs, activating even some effects that of series do not appear, this takes me to a doubt, there can take advantage furthermore the graph Adreno of 330 in the devices without applications as this one?, I am employed at a rom for mobile this one and for I respect the developers cannot include the apk, that files and configuration serian necessary in order that the graph works to full without this type of apk?, that is to say for example them of Mali-T604,forgive the question but I believe that some brands like LG fail to take advantage of the royal potential of some things and me gustaria to extract profit, graces again.
[Android Apps and Games] CrisR82:
The graphic-detail choice is not LG's fault, it's the game developer's. This is usually due to lack of testing (for example, almost all Gameloft games run with broken colors on the Galaxy S2 with regular Samsung ROM).

The only way to use better graphics without this app is to manually mod the game files and bypass the checks they put (quite hard to do).

[Android Apps and Games] souler456:
Hi guys! I have something to ask:

I use a Samsung Galaxy S2, and when I play HD Games that uses the GPU, it overheats... So that's why I want to use GL Tools to lower the GPU usage forcibly by lowering the 3D processing of those Games...

What options should I change? :confused:

[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

It *should*... Chainfire 3D was not updated to JB (your device is on JB if I'm not wrong), maybe it's why you had such a problem...

GLTools is compatible with JB, but I can't confirm it will work on your device (you have an ARM processor , again if I'm not wrong, so it should be good, but...).

[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

Sorry but it seems you are using a cracked version of GLTools, please read this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50513685&postcount=187.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Ah, ok...

I'm sorry I can't help you more about recovery and such stuff, I know nothing about your device.
[Android Apps and Games] ddaggebi:
No. Really, I didn't. I've downloaded my file in main page....

There is no reason I should use the cracked version.

Anyway, thanks! I'll download it again.

Nope. No luck. All the same....
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hum..., weird, but ok.

Yes please re-download the last version (XDA version or the paid version on the Play Store), uninstall the previous version properly and re-install.

Can you provide more details about your issue?
[Android Apps and Games] ddaggebi:
Okay. This did install on the last version of PLSX(Which is 1.0.11) but had no effect....

And in the changelog for the new version the developer of the Rom said that it has new Adreano drivers. So hopefully I've flashed it and tried to install GLTools... Then in the install page(page with the three check box in the bottom, you know) I selected the second texture page and clicked 'install'. Then GLTool haven't responded. After a minute, it spilled out this error log....
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

As stated by the dev of GLTools, it seems it's a bug in Dead Trigger 2 but I can't tell you more, sorry.

Ok,

I sent a mail to the dev ;)

Yes the new GPU drivers could cause a problem, I use them on my N5, but I don't use GLTools on my N5 :p, need to test. Maybe an update will be necessary :confused:. The thing is this GPU drivers update is for development purpose so not "fully supported" then...

Could you provide another log please, zip it?
[Android Apps and Games] ddaggebi:
Okay... Here it is.

Anyway, I might have to go to stock KK again, just for the sake of GLTools... but PLSX is too good to leave:crying:

Please update and make it work again. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] souler456:
Just got discovered the answer by myself as well... :p

The options that causes "visible" effects with my phone's heating issues were solved by changing these were:

1. Force enable 16-bit rendering (checked)

and

2. Downscale Texture (0.5)

Before, when I charge my S2 while playing HD Games, instead of charging, it discharges due to heating up. But now it ain't a problem no more. While playing HD Games and Charging, It now charges really slow (1% per 10 minutes) but its better than discharging... :D

If anyone else also have another settings that can help me with this heat-avoiding-issue, please let me hear it as well...

:D :) ;) :good:

I have tried it on asphalt8,minionrush and nfsmw but it does not work on these..no change in graphic nor any lag reduction.can you help?
[Android Apps and Games] raamishmk:
Well listen buddy, what worked for me on nfsmw and Real Racing 3 and will probably work on asphalt8 and other games too.

Just put fake gpu to whatever u want or whatever your device can handle.

And then install these games.

They will download additional 100mb approx data for the betterment of the graphics, and then u can also experiment with the texture decompression or recompression after your game starts.

Although only the additional data which they downloaded made hell lotta changes in my tab 2 graphics.

Hope this helps. :)

Installed this selecting TeX on reboot "unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped" over and over had to flash uninstall zip.

So I tried again same result. But in between that force close I was able to open the tool and play the Bruce Lee game I was trying to play by selecting and reno 320. Then after a reboot the force closing of android process media went away. Awesome app thanks

[Android Apps and Games] NIKHILALWAYZ:
Well i never knew about additional downloads,i thought just the workaround with settings on gltool would do the thing,like it works for mc4, it does not require any of any additional downloads just faking the gpu does the trick. Friend if it works on nsfmw could you please mention the setting for it.
[Android Apps and Games] Debangshu:
Wih a low end device

I've been experimenting with GLtools for quite sometime now on my Samsung GT-s6312. Its a low end device with a7 single core 1ghz processor and 736MB of RAM. For Real Racing 2, only reducing texture to 0.5 smoothens out the gameplay. With Asphalt 8, i got the best graphics-performance combo with the following settings: Reduce texture to 0.5 and Use fake GPU template to Tegra4. U might also use the optimize shaders. With these settings u can play the game with very minor lags.

U can play asphalt with high end device like performance and smoothness by setting the Processing to 0.5%. Along with it, u can experiment with Mali processor template to get additional texture and particle effects. However the loss of graphics quality at 0.5% processing was simply not worth it!
[Android Apps and Games] Vanilla Pudding:

[Android Apps and Games] Terr20114:
I usually have problems running dead trigger 2 with high graphic settings. Gltools fixed it right up for me with a few texture compressions. Now I'm on high settings with smoke n lens flares n stuff running at 20-30 fps. I've noticed tho, if I touch the screen while its loading or stuck on a steady frame rate it force closes. I love this app, buying it from GooPlay ASAP! :D

That's perfectly fine bro, I'll wait. Before this I couldn't run Dear Trigger 2 without ripping a few hair strands out now I can actually play it.
[Android Apps and Games] dejson:
Well, the app itself works perfectly on N9005 X-NOTE version 13.

At least after install and choosing widesystem fooling tegrazone app reports that I am using non-tegra device. But after selecting options to fool CPU and GPU vendor and reboot, it doesn't report anymore that I am not using non tegra device. Uninstalled Asphalt 8 and now I am reinstalling it from Tegrazone app, it takes 1,38 GB to download. Then I will uninstall Asphalt and uninstal Gltools, and see how much data will be downloaded from playstore, without Gltools and tegrazone app, I see on this thread that it takes 100 MB bigger download on Tegra enabled devices.

Anyway great app to play with. Right now I will try to find ONLY tegra device games to see if I can install them at all.

Well Antutu reports that I really have Tegra GPU so that's it I suppose.

Oh I missed this kind of tool because I still can remember how I just to play Samurai on i9000 with chainfire 3d plugins. Ah those were the days, which are coming back with this app.

Asphalt 8 - it seems that it doesn't like this app - at least for me, I couldn't see any improvements, BUT,

Real Racing 3- after enabling fake cpu and fake GPU ( will later post other settings, I downloaded 550 MB extra files. After 30 MB i stopped download and disabled Gltools and game run just fine without additional download. Again after enabling Gltools, game again wanted to download 550 MB, so the download is finished and I will test it now and post results.

I am not able to run Tegra 3 only games, didnt have time to tried anything but glowball :). TOnight I will try to install only Tegra 3 game, at least one to see if I can run it.

And here are the pictures of Real Racing with Gltools totally uninstalled and installed and applied ( Tegra 3 fake gpu cpu ) to RR3.

Can you see the difference between this picturess and guess which one is taken with Gltools.
[Android Apps and Games] CrisR82:

Found this works

Hi all, i posted previously asking how to get higher graphics for modern combat 4, but the settings were not working using Stock Rom.

My device is Nexus 7 [2012]

i fixed the issue by installing Paranoid android rom, and Paranoid android Gapps. inc M-Kernal a67.

This somehow made gltools work properly. where before it wasn't working.

Thought it could be a fix for anyone else having trouble trying to get Gltools working. Maybe try installing that Rom along with the Kernal and then trying it again. :)

Hope it helps others having trouble getting it to work.

i found this out with help from this guy AsR_iHack3x2.

found him via youtube, but unable to link him directly.

so big thanks to that guy for helping me figure this out. and hope it helps alot more people having trouble getting Gltools working. and maybe help pinpoint what it is exactly stopping it from working on certain roms/devices :).

What settings did you use? Just the tegra4 template?
[Android Apps and Games] dejson:
Well I am quite sure that I only choose settings for google play services but after reboot those settings are linked to other Google Play related apps and services.

After reboot everything is fine. Tegra zone app is not currently customised with gltools and when i pick the game while i am leaving tehrazone app i am receiving notification that I have non tehra device, but once I am on Google Play everything works like it should

Just tegra 4 template. Nothing else

Even i think the same.

Although soft brick ..i.e. Bootloop is most probable if you mess up the settings, or the app is not designed to work on such mobiles.

And soft brick is no problem really, so u can try.
