Hey. I got grand 3 for incredible and it is really laggy and I have chainfire and all and still lag. Can someone please help me.

Well, it runs like crap on my Incredible too. Is is suppose to be able to run it?
It's not made to run on the Incredible you need a more powerful cpu/gpu to play it properly like a Tegra 2 device.
Is there a app I can do that?
from a Droid incredible. back from Hell.
The Incredible has the Adreno 200. It will not play GTA III at any sort of a decent frame-rate. I have it on my iPod touch (64GB 4th gen) and my iPad (64GB OG), and it still lags horribly, and crashes very often due to running out of RAM. Funny to think about, considering it originally ran on a sub 300 MHz cpu with 32MB of RAM. Still runs great on my PS2 , and can be had for $5 at Gamestop.
However you can play 2D and lower end 3D games quite well. Installed Zombieville USA last night, runs just like it does on my iPod.
How do I lower to 2D.

I don't think you can lower GTA 3 to 2d.
Im pretty sure hes just suggesting you play a 2d game because it'll run much smoother.

The game runs fine on my phone. Kang'd cm7.
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
I tried it on CM7.1 and it was pretty unplayable, not to mention it doesn't even show up in the market anymore ;p.
I got cynogen 7 and I got a app called GTA III setting and its wonderful.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone tried the n64oid app on their EVO? And if so how well does it preform? I am wanting to know before I buy the app.
Thanks!

Runs fine for me.....
Runs fine for me, just a lil sound lag, but its expected.
Decent for me on LOZ:OOT. Bit laggy though.
Ive used it, but quite laggy on the game i was playing, Diddy Kong Racing. It will get better tho
I just downloaded it, and EVERY rom i've downloaded on the EVO for n64oid is Super laggy, unplayable. Anyone know why?
ive had the same problem on my evo, except for mario 64 and harvest moon 64, but otherwise all the other roms are so laggy i can barely play them, even though some of the same roms i've seen youtube videos of them running perfectly. same question as above; anybody know why?

is there the option of changing the framerate? the higher the frame rate, the smoother the game, but it takes a heavy toll on your battery, you'll be best to play while tethered to the wall via charger cable
I just bought this app as well. Downloaded Goldeneye, Mario, and Mario Kart. All games are extremely laggy. Mario kart is playable, but the on screen timer takes about 3 seconds for every second in real time. Goldeneye, which I was really looking forward to, wont even load past the pre-game animated video. Very disappointing.
I changed the frame rate in mario kart, it worked okay, but still really laggy. Goldeneye and NFL Blitz were terrible no matter what the framerate!! I thought EVOs were fast?!!! What's going on?

Our processors are fast, our GPUs are outdated though. All the cool people run Adreno 205, we're stuck at 200.
Plus, as someone noted, it'll get better. There's a lot of stuff for the developer to work out to make the programming as efficient as possible so we don't experience so much lag. If you recall, it took the guy who did SNESoid several months before he could even get Super Mario RPG to work, and even so there's still enhancements being made to make it more playable.
patience...or buy a phone with better hardware. your choice.
Its not our phone, the dev clearly states at the bottom that the app should be considered an Alpha as he has so many performance updates to push thru to get it working close to perfect on most high end phones. Just give it time.

Yes, the results posted here are actually typical of most phones right now. The Evo does have a slightly lower GPU, but that actually doesn't matter with these emulators. Someone explained that unless the emulator was using openGL, which it apparently isn't, it shouldn't matter. I don't know, I just read that.
I have tested it on two roms. Myns 2.2 RSL5, and UltimateDroid 2.5. Both with kernels that support overclocking. On the sense rom, I have to download setcpu and set it to performance. On UD, I can set it in the settings. I overclock to 1.19GHZ.
In the app I have found it doesn't really matter if sound is checked on or off. Turning up the frameskips seemed to help. My results so far are the following games play well:
Mario 64 (flawless)
Mario Kart 64 (just a little bit laggy, but very enjoyable)
Star Fox 64 (menus and videos are very choppy, but in game it's super smooth and definately worth the download)
If for nothing more than these 3 games, this was well worth $6. I would have gladly bought these for $2 each if there were available as standalones somewhere.
That being said, the developer is known for updating all the time. Star Fox is running much more smoothly now than it was when the app first was released, so already I have seen a compatibilty increase.
Expect to continue to see updates, and as they do, more games will be available.
Now, if ANYONE has some complaint about the $6 they paid, go complain somewhere else. We don't want to hear it.
Runs like bunk on the evo because of the adreno 200.
Just ran it on an epic and it works perfect with the almighty powervr. (although the rest of the phone sucks)
It has potential so I bought it. I just want to play Zelda and Mario Kart. I can't wait until the Dreamcast emulator comes out so I can play Shenmue.

if you install CM7 and over clock to 1.1ghz it runs a lot better.
I've owned Android devices prior the Nexus, and one thing that's always bothered me is that my Android could never run games as smoothly as the iPhone, while it has more power under the hood. I download Fruit Ninja and Scrambled on my Nexus and it seems to lag and stutters... are all games like this on the Nexus?
I would think it's because the game is not optimized for ICS yet. So you will get some lag and stuttering with those games.
What rom/kernel combo you running? On aokp & franco kernel, I play jelly defense, battle heart, scramble with friends, draw something, sprinkle, etc & have no lag...

Temple Run is lagging when you play it for a while, same with many other 3D games....
AOKP + franco r135 512mhz GPU and I have no lag in games. Little Empire, Dead Space, Modern Combat 3, Legendary Heroes, Zenonia 4. I run those and more all lag free and atleast 50-60 fps at all times.

384 is the stock clock =/= 2x gpu clock. Even then it only makes a 5-6 fps differnece in most circumstances. Could have better results in different apps but nenamark i saw a 5-6 fps difference.
Temple Run is stuttering in Galaxy Nexus 4.0.4 stock
I really think it's just software optimizaitons that need to be done imo. I'm sure with time it'll get better. Cause I'm running Temple Run perfectly no lag/stutters.
I personally wouldn't play Fruit ninja as they were in news in hot water over passing on our details.
As for games on Galaxy Nexus, they run slower than SGS2 and I think that's simply the limitations of the graphics chip which is as old as the hills.
I use a GSM Galaxy Nexus, stock, no overclock, no frills, just rooted to use Titanium Backup, never had any lags in Fruit Ninja, runs fine... Temple Run, ocasionally will stutter, but it is rare and most of the time I just play 20, 30 times and no stutter at all... GTA III also plays fine.
Obviously it is not the best performer, and, as you probably now, there is the same iPhone 4 GPU under the hood of our devices, only that it got extra memory bandwidth and extra clock to perform better (and also a HD screen that will eat-up some of this extra performance)... But I believe, at least as far as my own experience goes, that it is a decent performer, altough there are better alternatives as far as gaming goes (and I would believe that probably HTC One X would be the best Android gaming phone alternative as far as graphic performance is concerned right now).

Actually, 307mhz is because Google underclocked it, stock.

It doesn´t lag, bit it run like at 25fps or so, not as smooth as 60fps (I am refering when there are many coins in the screen and you are running too fast)
How are you quantifying that it runs at 25fps? Is there a fps counter somewhere?

nope, not for me. it runs even smoother than the version for the iphone .
maybe the gpu in the nexus is not the fastest one, maybe there are other phones that are much faster.... I DON'T CARE! i didn't bought my nexus to play games all day, i bought it to synchronize my calender, my notes, make calls and write sms and maybe some internet surfing.
you also all bought this phone, so why complain? it's like buying yourself a motorbike and then complaining about the fact that it only has 2 wheels.
Enabling Force GPU acceleration in the developer options under Settings might improve the performance of some games. Although it will might also make some games look weird.

Games are already GPU accelerated. You can't doubly accelerate them
i play gta iii, MC3, wind-up knight, shadow gun and fifa and no lag whatsoever

Hi I am kind of dissapointed with the gaming performance, almost all games have frame lag shadowgun runs really choppy from start to finish, also samurai 2 is fairly laggy at some parts, and some low end apps that have reflections lag really bad,.. does any else experience this ? I'm on 4.0.2, also my t.prime doesn't run as smooth as it should, I'll try it on my Xperia s and see how it does.. it may be the game or just Ics....

The GPU in the GNex isn't the best. It's an overclocked version of the one found in the GT-i9000 Galaxy S.
That still doesn't make it a bad phone.

+1. Shadowgun, Dead Space, Spectral Souls run perfect. Never had an issue you're describing.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
No problems here. The gpu may be old but that doesn't make it bad.
Try 4.0.4
I've played Shadowgun and Dead Space just fine. All other casual games run great too.
MOST games runs smoother on my Tmobile Galaxy S2, compared to my Galaxy Nexus. What really bothers me is when something pops up on screen (like changing the volume) while gaming, it's really laggy. Some say it's ICS, some say it's the GPU, and some says because of the higher resolution of the Nexus.
Try playing a game like Mega Jump (free on play google), and while playing, adjust the volume. Why does it lag so much?
Cause toast notifications just aren't tweaked right. Maybe not run thru the gpu or something.
weird my epic didn't lag when swiping pages and the toast notification was on. And it has the same gpu. Same rom too cm9.

I have none of the issues you are reporting. In fact, it looks like a lot of other GN users also DON'T have that problem. I have played Dead Space, ShadowGun, BackStab, and others and they play without lag. I don't like lag and slowdown. I would not even bother playing them if there like this. ShadowGun for instance, I would not have played it as long as I have. Or got as far as I did if it was bad or lagged. Not sure why we all can play these games fine and you can't.

True this. It's still a good GPU that plays all games I've tried beautifully. Even GTA III plays buttery smooth.
If one game doesn't play smooth for any of you, you can always try Chainfire3D.

Just letting you guys know. Great game!
I wonder how it runs on the GSII.
I know GTA III runs poorly. I have to crank the CPU MIN to 1500 to get it to run like butter. Afterwards I have to turn it off.

I play it on sensation, sniper rifle sounds so awesome. Sgs2 plays it just as well
Yeah it works great on the T989 its a large game and the data takes a while to download
I like my Roms the way I like my women..... Clean and smooth
I've played many high end Apps on my SGS2 for quite some time (IE:Shadow Gun, Modern Combat, etc) with no problem or lag whatsoever. But now a days it feels as if those same games feel rather laggy on my same phone. (Stock but rooted). I found Need For Speed Most Wanted to be rather fun but there are times where it lags very badly. Is this everyone? And if so.. How can I over clock but stay as stock as possible? A guide would be lovely. Thanks in advance

I have a few lag issues (unnoticeable). Maybe trying running an AOSP ROM like CM10 or AOKP? Also you could try the h0tcakez kernel, which also has GPU Overclock. Also trying using the CPU rendering = GPU rendering mod which helps to free up the CPU.
The adreno 220 chip in these phones is already past its prime guys. Be thankful the games even play half as well as they do.

It's true though, three GPU in or phone was nothing new when it went in in the first place... but is far from not being good enough to play these new games.
I have also been play NFS most wanted, but i have not had any of the slow Downs of lag your seeing. Granted i am on paranoid android with my CPU and GPU OC'd'... but my wife's sensation also plays it super smooth and i have her CPU undercloxked to help with battery same CPU and GPU...
