Kernel/Rom that boosts 3d games? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I remember there being a kernel or Rom that boosts fps in 3d games. I can't seem to find it now. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Reason I ask is I play pocket legends and some maps lag even with a good ping.

i'm not sure which ones do but you are looking for a kernel with GPU+ in it

I found what I was talking about with your help. I installed 2.6.32.27-incredikernel-12232010_signed. I did a before and after play through of AO3 in pocket legends. There is a instant noticeable difference in how smooth the gameplay is. I was skeptical at first but this new kernel actually does help 3d games. I can't comment much on other features of the kernel, since I haven't used it enough yet.
Thanks for the help!

no problem, I forgot to add, make sure you flash the correct kernel, AOSP or Sense, whichever rom it is that you use.

does incrediblek have gpu+ or no?

It doesn't list GPU+ under features. I'm running incrediblek at stock speeds and my 3D games seem good to me. But maybe I've never tried a kernel with GPU+

hm well i have seen a boost in 3d performance thats why i was wondering, and i know the sense version does

Speed up games in ics

Hello. I unlocked my bootloader to use ics on my play, but games like cod nazi zombies and Nova 3 ect run super slow and choppy. Is there anyway to speed them up to full speed? Thanks.

Not possible. ICS will always lag on certain game titles till the point they are unplayable.
I think differently. When I removed some of AOKP stuff I didn't use, it gave me the extra space and speed. It somehow gained much needed ram. I guess some of the apps I removed ran in background more than I thought. The only problem I have is mupen64plus. It always closes on me. Still can't figure that one out.

You should tell us what rom and kernel are you using. However, check my signature, it may give you some ideas.

You could try flashing a Neo L baseband, i haven't tried it myself but heard that people get better performance with it on ICS

[Q] Starting to get buggy

Ok, Ive had my xperia play for nearly a year. I have to say its been a good phone and a good gaming tool. But nowdays, whenever I try to play heavy 3D games (e.g. zombiewood, indestructible by gameloft, batman, etc) it starts to lag and freeze so much. so much that I just uninstall the game and forget about it and let that empty feeling eat me up....
Anyways, I think the problem is either: the RAM efficiency or the ROM itself. I am on doomkernal (the latest one) and on the JokaWildv3 ROM. I have RAM manager installed and it usually tells me that I have approx 130-70mb free (this is not internal memory btw). I try to overclock my phone to 1.4GHz but it still lags/crashes when I play. I also think that some apps (e.g. facebook app, google play etc) have a part to play in the RAM since I close them yet, they are still running in the background. Im also considering changing ROM since tbh, I preferred the stock 2.3.4 ROM...
Anyways, what do you guys think is the problem on my phone?
EDIT = Had a look through the ROMs and im thinking to eithier go back to stock 2.3.4 or go with DiXperia 2... anyone had any lags/crashes while playing heavy 3d games with these ROMs?
I use Gin2JB and it's great. My games are quite smooth.

would the heavy 3d games be smooth? And is there a way where I can keep my RAM being used efficiently ?
I can play NOVA 3 quite smoothly if thats what you mean?
You could also try RAM manager

I guess u can play fully 3d games like batman, dead trigger with no lags then.
I do have ram manger and I do get about 180mb free but that really doesnt last long..
I can play wild blood with minimal lag last i checked. Batman doesn't run the best but apparently moving it to internal storage helps. I'm not sure how dead trigger runs. Gin2JB is a good ROM and i'm happy with it. Perhaps you could try V6 supercharger? I'm not a big fan but others have liked it. I like it for the die hard launcher.

Thought maybe we could have a thread discussing all things this game from best settings on the N7 to tactics for different races, and which cars and/or mods help?

Dunno whether you could use an app like titanium to backup the game data? maybe someone else knows for sure though?

Use PeerDeviceNet to sync data for any application across all of your Androids, it's free on the PlayStore.

I must say I'm quite disappointed in this game. Even with hamdirs mod on the lowest setting I found 10 in game seconds is actually 22 real seconds, you can't tell me that's because of the device.

What do you mean? I'm saying the game is slow. It IS smooth, but overall slow, not really good for a racing game. And it seems its not just me. Upgrading to 4.2 has given a slight performance increase, but it's still in no way as fast as it should be. Ea has said they are working on it but (one really wonders what devices they tested on when everyone seems to have this problem =S)

It is the device. I have found that being overclocked causes this time warp deal. Use your preferred clocking app to set a profile so your cpu only goes to 1.3 ghz while that game is being played. Makes a huge difference.

how do i set up ps3 control for this game? ps3 is connected to bluetooth. can pause the game but cant control the car. i downloaded key mapping and load it to sixaxis. i had no problem with gta 3.

Yes but the HTC oneX is our chip at 1.5 and it has the same issues.
The mod that got made by hamdir was primarily made to address the issue you're talking about. The game was pulling up the 1.5ghz profile and running like ****.
But even with the game set to the 1.3 settings and the tablet or phone at 1.5 its still slow.
I'm really starting to think this is on purpose though. I flashed trinity and clocked it up to 1.7 GHz and 700mhz gpu and it was buttery smooth but still slow. Even with the mod at 1.3.
And ea seems to be doing their old trick of flat out ignoring everything =\

Change the control method to an onscreen steering wheel and it should work, tbh I find it easier to play via the tilt method as EA didn't think too hard about the controls :silly:

Mc4 doesn't lag

Yaay!! Thanks to(ilikethewayyoumove) I can now play mc4 without any lags and get about 24-27 fps.
Simply put,
1. Run the game with gamepad closed at launch at then open when you are about to play
2. Make sure your mobile data or WiFi is active when you play the game.
I also recommend you use the 1.0.1 version of the game
Try these methods out and see the result.
Don't forget to thank me if I helped.

posted this as 5 stars, even though its been mentioned already. Some d!ck is going around posting 1 star on everyone.. makes me wonder if they have done anything to help the Xperia PLAY community..... or spent anytime in search of helping the community.....
Thanks to everyone
Special thanks to ozzmanj1. Really appreciate the 5 star post. I know this thread doesn't deserve five stars but thanks anyway. People have good intentions for whatever they post, who ever is giving one star to everyone's post should do something better with his life(no disrespect). Thank you have a nice day

OK, so I started the game with the gamepad closed.... and when it loaded my previous state... I opened the gamepad but didnt see a difference... I am on V 1.0.1. Does this really work? I tried this repeatedly three times each time force stopping the game then restarting.... nada...zip....
i would get the wapshop version. It doesnt lag when the gamepad is open.

Just got mc4 no lag now. Much much better. Almost as smooth as mc3. Not quite but way more playable. GL needs to fix the android market veraion for this. But its GL...so no.

Alroght so using a fps counter gamepad closed I'm getting 46 fps. Gamepad open. 24-29fps. This normal? Think GL needs to fix that. This is using the Google play version 1.0.1. GL wPshop version is 1.0.

24-29 fps is quite playable but I get about 33 fps during normal gameplay and slightly less in heavy battle zones. Your fps Is quite ok.

Why this powerful can't??

Why this device can't run Gangstar series games it if runs mc4 and more powerful apps? I know it has the potencial to run them. Anyway I can get gangstar rio running on it?

I wish I had the full version to test it. I've never played it. Just out of curiosity, are you running any kind of kernel tuner? OC/UV? I've noticed on the apps that need more powerful processors, the tuners will not give them the processor power they need. Setting up a profile for gaming and a daily driver profile might be what you need. Kernel tuner lets you disable a core processor when the phone is not using that much. Great for battery, ****ty for game play. Try to OC your phone and see if it improves your gameplay. Like I said, I can't test it and its a 5 dollar app i'd probably never play again. lol

My phone is in stock android 4.1.2. I don't have any program or anything. I just would like to know why the game doesn't support this phone and supports samsung infuse and galaxy s1 that are less powerful and those phones freezes while the t989 doesn't freezes. I'm disappointed.. by that issues.
