Hello everyone

I found this app named GLtools it can increase gaming perfomance by decreasing quality I play gta 3 on.my xperia tipo lag is almost nill by using 0.5x resolution

It works same as chain fire 3d

Its an awesome app everyone should try it

I tried on xperia tipo on cm10

Heres the playstore link

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ce=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=gltools

Feature list

- Change resolution and rendering bitness in any app, even if it doesn't support that by default.

- Change GPU name and enjoy enhanced graphics even on a noname low-end GPU.

- Take full control over textures: now you can decompress/recompress them (even if your GPU doesn't support that

texture format) and resize. Note that decompression feature is available only if you'll install a plugin (internet is

required to do that)

- Optimize shaders on-the-fly for optimal performance (the same optimizer is used in Unity3D engine by default)

- Enable MSAA or CSAA in any app to improve graphics quality (make sure that your GPU supports that)

- Measure gained performance with a nice onscreen FPS counter (or you can output FPS information to Logcat if you

are a pro)

Also attached my benchmark on xperia tipo

U can see on playstore
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
This thing is seriously effective; with this and Seeder, you won't see any lag while gaming!

The settings I use: AA is 4x non-Tegra (yes, I know AA makes it slower), textures downscaled to 0.5x, full resolution, fake GPU info of Adreno 320, no decompression or recompression of textures (I don't know how it affects performance).
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :
Really? I was a bit sceptical, to be honest.

Surely going to try this!

Asphalt 8 still lags, but otherwise for almost every game the lag's gone! Most Wanted works, Sonic and SEGA All Stars Racing works, GTA: VC works (now at max settings). Just no Airborne.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] jhonny1525:
I also play asphalt 8 theres no lag I have a class10 memorycard I swap 200mb ram using ram expander u should also try ramexpander
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] KDB223:
+1

Only I use it with no AA, 0.5x resolution and no downscaling

HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF I WAS OF ANY HELP :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :
Nope, not for me. Expanding RAM will decrease the life of your SD card. I paid 20 Euros for my Class 10 16 GB card, and I'm not in the mood to buy a new one soon... I am using swap in the system and cache partition, but that's because those aren't completely full and swapping won't have a negative effect(thanks to [MENTION=5349083]jatin@1[/MENTION] for the explanation)

Will try GLTools in the afternoon, looking forward to it.

Mats
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
Do you still have the ZIP for swapping in cache and system? I can't find the thread.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :

Will it work with xperia j cm10? Cause I need it too
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :
Well, you can flash it. It won't brick your device. But it's a different phone with different spaces in the partitions. I'm not sure if you will benefit from it.

Just make a back-up and flash it. See if you gain performance or if it doesn't make a difference.

For me, it does.

Mats

Sonic Dash lags on my Miro :(
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] maocai:
So what do I do after flashing it?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] aakash1996:
Can someone explain why this happens with me if I reduce render resolution to 0.5x or to 0.25x
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
Cause it tries to fill your phone's screen, even though you have set it to 0.25 times the resolution, so it just tiles itself?

Lowering resolution is the most effective framerate-wise, but the viewing experience is crap.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] yusharap:
Ram swap for all? Or only XE?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :
You can try, but it was originally made for the E.

Mats
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] jatin@1:
As said by [MENTION=5439257]MatsPunt[/MENTION] ,it wont brick your phone.

and yes, this script is universal. so almost anyone can use it....but after a little modifications to match with there phone as mentioned below.

SO WHEN YOU HAVE EDITED ALL THESE THINGS,PLACE YOUR SCRIPT IN system/etc/init.d AND DONT FORGET TO USE A SWAP AND INIT.D ENABLED KERNEL OR ELSE ALL THE EFFORTS WOULD BE IN VAIN.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] krushn:
Good but many side effect

I used Gltools. It gives around 30-40fps in subway at 0.5X resolution. But after 2 days i can't play music or can't take picture, volume setting also stop working. So i have to remove it. after restart everything working fine

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] preacher16:
I flashed the zip file,but how can i know that it has swaped or swapping files?please reply...
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] jatin@1:
you can use any of the following methods to confirm if you have made a swap.img successfully or not:-

1.USING TERMINAL EMULATOR

Download terminal emulator from play store. open and type command "free -m" (without quotes). you will find the made swap size in swap column of output of command. zero means no swap.

2. You may either look out for log files in root/data/swap/.log file and check them.

3. You can also confirm by giving this command via terminal emulator

cat /proc/swaps
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] preacher16:
Checked in terminal emulator,in swap partition,i have o mb swap.

What to do nw,please help...:confused:

Attached a snap shot of t.e
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] :
That means that your kernel doesn't support swap and/or doesn't have init.d support.

Mats
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Revontheus:
Swapping ain't good as the real RAM so don't try it because it poses a potential hardbrick if done wrong....

So you have 512MB ram swapped some of your space on system to "act" like its the phones Partition and now you have 800MB ram which is still slower and rubbish compared to a phone with 768MB of ram

Great App will it work on J?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] preacher16:
Using universal init.d for init.d support and Hedes kernel for swap,but still nothing.

Really determined for it,requesting more advise..:(

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] nightfireblaze8:
It should work on any Android device.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] androidfreak70:
Sure? Because i used chainfire 3D and got bootloop... And i don't want to got another bootloop and loose my data

Im using 4.3 stock based rom. Just for sure :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] nightfireblaze8:
Chainfire 3D is only for Android 2.3 and below. That's why you got a bootloop.

Make a backup using CWM before installing GL Tools. It should work fine.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] androidfreak70:

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Phalangioides:
It helps a bit in some games - it made mc4 from "slide show" to "barely playable", so i guess that's a success. No difference felt in nfs mw though - it works rather smoothly even without it.

Hi,

My sister lives in the countryside where broadband ADSL speeds are lucky to reach 0.5Mb.

However whilst i was visiting I tested my Nexus 5 data speeds and got around 7Mb download using my 3G connection through my Three SIM (on The One Plan).

I was thinking they could purchase a SIM only contract for the One Plan (that includes tethering and unlimited data) and use that in a MIFI dongle. However doing a bit of searching it seems that Three will not allow the SIM to be used in a MIFI unit.

So that got me thinking.

I am now considering getting them a cheap Android handset with a One Plan sim installed, and use that phone as their source for internet connection at home.

Anyone else tried this?

How would you set it up for the best?

PHONE > COMPUTER / DEVICES (I would of thought that the phone wouldnt send out the best wifi signal around the house)

or

PHONE > ROUTER > COMPUTER / DEVICES ( I thought this would give a better wifi network signal around the house)

Anyone with some help / thoughts?
[Networking] raxx0705:
using router is better

a portable hotspot will not give them best speeds,using a router is a better option and it will give much better speed.

Hope it helps you! gudluck!

if it helps you dont forget to hit thanks button!!
[Networking] sdfgsteve:
I USB tether my phone to an old box that runs as a router. Works very well. Be warned though, that Three throttle tethered connections if the data use is high: and 'high' to them seems to be a trivial amount of data. I need to do some experimenting to find out how it knows it's throttled (packet inspection or AP settings) though.

Im currently using the imate rom 2.16.9.1.wwe Rom date 2/6/06 extrom version 0 2.16.9.101

It has been working fine for the past few weeks and the performane increase has been much better. I was also using the oush mail which also worked well. Then a few days ago I started to have a few problems with the phone, basically it would look as if it was working the lights flashing, however when I went to turn it on it wouldn’t turn on. The only way to resolve this si to soft reset the handset. This problem is now occuring on average 2 times a day! I havent even installed any new software!! Thwe only major incident before this started happening was I used skype twice! But havent used it since! I have also stopped push mail cause I thought this maybe the issue but it didn’t solve it!

Its so annoying cause I think the device is operating normally cause I see the flashing lights however it cant do anything cause it has frozen!

Any ideas???

I was thinking of going for a hard reset but if I restore my backup ive taken with spb will this not just reintroduce the problem?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
just to add for further info i have no apps running and the

program memory is total - 44.01mb

in use 19.67mb and Free 24.34

thats after a soft reboot!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bloney:
This might be a really silly suggestion, so appologies if it is, but could it be just the backlight turned off for some reason so it looks like the device is off when it is actually on?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] BlueyHK:
No, I don't think that it is the backlight as I am also now experiencing this same problem ... approx 1 - 2 time daily. You think that the phone is functioning until you try to use it. Only option is soft reset.

Any help on this would be appreciated.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
no at present a soft reset is the only cure and even then it may occur again later on! Bluey HK are you using the same rom as me??? the imate one?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
its done it twice already today and its only midday! the last time i was just browsing the web, closed the browser, then switched it off and then couldnt turn it back on! Do you think it may be a memory leakage issue????
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tpeddle:
This happened to me yesterday on my T-Mobile MDA. I am running the latest T-Mobile_RUU_Wizard_2210401_221_20710_ENG_US image from xelencin.

What appears to have triggered the problem for me was attempting to connect to T-Mobile's My Email app to download mailbox settings while the signal level is too low or intermittent (Wi-fi and Bluetooth were disabled).

The backlight would not turn on and I could observe the My Email app trying to access the server.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
it sounds as though it may be a bug connected with a GPRS connection???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
ahh its done it again, this time i wasnt doing anything just died! I think i am gonnna have to do a hard reset cause this is making the phone unuseable!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
if i do a hard reset and then install a back up is there a high possibility that this will reintroduce the bug???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] emesoh82:
its not the backlight

my 8125 is having the same damn problem. its nto a backlight issue, as it just stalls, and the past 4 times its done it, i've just removed the battery and turned it back on as a soft reset wont work, and i can't it to react to any commands. this is either a software issue all our phones are dying. i was having this problem with summitter's previous 2.17 rom, then updated to the recent 2.17.11 aku 2.2 rom... thinking the upgraded rom is what it needed...NOPE... still crashed. almost all instances i believe are when the wifi connection was active. but i could be making that up, i'm positive on 3 occasions it was with a wifi connection active. but not too sure about the 4th.

this is making me insane, and we need to figure out whats up~!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] emesoh82:
to expound on the problem:

one time i was in the middle of checking voicemail, then tried to delete, but the screen wouldn't light up, and it wasn't responding to my option 7 to delete command. the other time was in the middle of a phone call. something's up....

Low Battery...

I had this happen to me once recently...for me it was becuase my battery was too low. Freaked me out, because everything looked good, but I would power on and get nothing! Right after it started it powered on for a sec then quit. I had to put it on the charger and leave it for a couple hours to get a good solid charge, then everything was fine. Hope this helps....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
thanks for the response, unfortunately mine is definately not related to the battery charge!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jimmeh:
mine hasnt done it in the last day, ive been leaving it a while before putting it into standby. i used to exit my app (messaging or whatever) and shut it off straightaway, but i give it a sec or 2 to make sure its all good

and its doin ok so far!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
mine froze today when i was closing messages and going into the today screen. I think it has to be some sort of memory issue - I will however try and give everything a little time to close before i put in standby! I will report my findings!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
I have just had a new issue occur that may be related. I had a whiite screen with radio buttons titled - program memory low - it asked me to close the following:-

PIE, calendar contacts, phone and phone (why two instances i dont know!)

Anyhow i closed everything bar the 2 phone instances and then checked my memory:-

Total - 44.01mb

in use - 38.11mb

free 5.30mb

this is with no applications running??

what is happening to all the memory? could this be the issue when in stanby mode the memory leakage is causing the phone to stop responding??

i have looked in task manager and the only thing that stands out is a number of skype processess all 1k each - about 10 occurences - bearing in mind i havent used this app for ages and ages!

any info or feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I installed Cingular 2.25.11.1 WWE couple days ago, ROM date 5/11/06. Since than, my wizard acts just like what JPHCCFC described. It happened at least 4 times last 3 days. It's driving me crazy. I missed lots of calls already. JPHCCFC and I are using different rom, so it might be a software issue. It never happen to me before when i had T-mobile 2.17 rom. But i install couple more programs after I upgraded to Cingular 2.25. I will post all the programs that installed on my wizard when I get home tonight.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] maat_o121:
my problems are gettin worse, i find it occurs most for me when the phone has been in standby or left untouched for sometime ie over night, if i try to read a recived text message the phone illuminates and i can highlight '1 new message' but then the device locks, keys illuminated and fails to respond.

The only thing to do is a soft reset at which point the new message is no longer on the device - i am therefore missing numerous messages with no idea who sent them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JPHCCFC:
ive gone for a hard reset and restored to an spb backup - will update if the problem persists
