I'm experiencing this on my Shadowgun THD leftover pack version on prime. after playing the game for a little the game will freeze up and screen will start jumping/flashing. its annoying as a mofo. My Gangstarr Rio and Dungueon hunter 3 does the same thing. those are modded tf101 versions that work on Prime. If anything develops or some sort of fix found, let us know. I had contacted the Asus representative Gary Keys, in Transformer Prime section, on the issue with games randomly crashing/freezing. he updated his thread and said he will be meeting with Google and nvidia next week to address the issue. Someone had suggested it might be some kind of memory leak or something causing this to happen. seems tl only happen with graphically intense games like Shadowgun or certain ones from gameloft. I have alot of games and most are fine and never show the issue. Hopefully Nvidia can fix it and be incorporated into a new firmware update.

your comments apply to the Prime only right? AP33 should have a been a revision to deal with silicon issues

yes but by seeing alot of prime owners experiencing the same thing as you described, it might be a tegra3 error in general no matter if regular tegra3 or AP33 version. someone posted that it might be some kind of memory leak causing the issue on graphically intense games or 3D one. because rebooting tablet will fix the issue for a while. Asus is meeting with Nvidia and Google next week to address that matter and the browser issue of random freezes/crashing/or pop up to wait. I see some other people in here not to pleased with stock browser also. so it may be a Nvidia driver or memory leak issue they need to address. tegra3 and nvidia is the only common thing Prime & One X has. Aside from both being android..lol
if you find any info or updates, pop in prime forums and let us know. or send a pm
Also we have 1.8Ghz overclock now and stable(plus they working on going even higher). if we achieving this already on regular tegra3, I'm anxious to see what the AP33 version is capable of.

can anyone please upload the SD card data ?

[Q] Zen Pinball - does it stutter for you?

My One X is running perfectly smoothly with everything EXCEPT Zen Pinball, which is meant to be optimised for Tegra 3. It is almost unplayable, as it jerks every few seconds and suffers from severe slowdown - which is a shame, as the game seems pretty good (And is free).
Have any of you guys had the same problems? And if you haven't tried, could youc heck please?
Same for me...
Same here seems the game needs some optimization for the One X, try to contact the develloper i will do the same.
Yes, stutters here too. As it was the first Tegra game I played on my new HOX, I was really disappointed. Luckily, everything else seems to run perfectly. Hope we get a fix for this soon... disappointing that the developer released this (presumably) without having tested it on the One X first (even if it is free) as some users will see this as a weakness with the device rather than the app.
GTA III is also choppy like hell for me along with Zen pinball.
Same here. Fruit Ninja too.
Me too.
I found GTA3 to be choppy too but it's playable at least.

Hmm Fruit Ninja seems to be running OK for me, but, to my extreme distress, Homerun Battle 3D is not smooth at all! That is like one of my favourite mobile games!!!!
Are developers going to be bothering to sort this sort of stuff out? I mean surely, the One X is more than powerful enough to handle stuff like this no?
Yes unplayable here too..; Along with alot of other games; Mostly all "ball" games. Love to play teeter when waiting somewhere, ball stutters over the screen instead of running smooth.
All fruit slice games stutter when you slice the fruit and don't run smooth; Wonder if this gets better with updates.
Try glowball it's a proper demonstration of what the one x can do.
Does make mine get hot really quickly tho.

same here with zen and gta3 maybe a custom rom might solve the problem?
getting weird lag even in built-in stock teeter game ?!
Just installed it on my device this morning and yes it lags during the game rendering but user interface is responsive.
I have written an email to the devs let's hope they will fix it.
Works fine for me !
I just fell back in my youth and played a couple of pinball-games after I had red about this issue. Wow, was good fun still I prefer the bigger screen on my Prime.
The responsiveness of the H1X is a bit laggy but the game goes flawless so I can adjust to it.
Test passed, once again I am happy I am not having any issue with my H1X.
Well done HTC.
Yeah Zen pinball is laggy for me as well! shame really because i love it on 360 & PS3. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
Surprised that Teeter is laggy as well!! It runs smoother on my Desire...strange!
Game was made for Tegra 2. Either the Game needs an Update or the One X...
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your report, we will look into and try to address this in the next game update.
Best Regards,
Zen Pinball Team

Yes it is, although it doesn't always run very smooth (not even after update 1.28). It's fairly playable though.
Yes but on my one x its laggy/choppy/frame drops With 1.26 and with the new ota 1.28

I dont think the game itself is optimized for any phone yet..
I'd like to think that its just a throwntogetherpiece for their 10 year celebration or w/e it was.
Yes, works perfect here.
Make sure you use the correct version of GTA III guys.
I'm not experiencing any lag at all, could even say it's too fast/smooth.

Where did u get one for Tegra 3 ? I didnt find a Tegra 3 version...
Maybe you downloaded a "Ultra performance version" for lower end phones?
sorry for digging up an oldish thread but for me as well it lags a lot, bit disappointed in this regard as i thought the phone would be able to run it no problem..
It seems the one x doesn't do well in performance with apps and games, its a real disappointment.

Hmm, I got my copy through the TegraZone, however that's just the same as buying & downloading from the Play Store the usual way.
I know that HTC is aware of a problem with the initial drivers for the Tegra, the 1.28 update improves gaming a hell of a lot, I'm yet to receive 1.29, but supposedly that does too. There's a 1.3x update rumored soon, that should fix most problems with any phones right now.
Mine runs fine though, it's just Temple Run that's choppy right now

Gameloft working on tegra 3 optimization!!!!

I contacted gl to let them know about the issues with tegra 3 and they are already aware about it and are working on it
soon we will get to enjoy gameloft games lag free on our HOX
HIT THANKS if i helped!!!!!!
It's the halo effect of the N7. Now that Google's pushing Teg3 by putting in one of their devices that's destined to sell in the tens of million you'll see a lot of app developers that ignored Teg3 or never optimized for it getting on board. The N7 is the best thing that ever could have happened to Teg3.

Nice! My one x will be a little bit happier once this happens as we've recently opened up our gpu speeds to FAST :good:Thanks faux123
I already saw that but I don't think it's true, Gameloft guys are just a bunch of liars, I went to their forum and they're most of the time ignoring the Tegra 3 related complaints or answering the exact same way they answered to you (it's like if they're all doing a ctrl+c-ctrl+v)
And, considering the way Asphalt 7 and The Amazing Spider Man (this game doesn't even support post-treatment for Tegra 3!) were optimised for Tegra 3 and considering that Gameloft had time to do the work before releasing these apps, I guess that nVidia didn't pay the extra money Samsung paid to get properly optimised apps...
Even The Dark Knight Rises was not THAT well optimised...
Considering all that I would assume that Gameloft developpers don't know their work or what "optimising" means but considering how Gameloft games work on SGS2 and SGS3 I think that Samsung just paid some money...
They said the same to me and I really complained bout mc3 because I loved that on my xplay I put a good bit of money onto it and that sent me a t3 version but it lags abit online ill try and find the email

This is just an unoptimised version with device check deactivated so it runs but lags...
By the way, Modern Combat 3 is available on the Play Store for the One X but I assume it's again not properly optimised and I won't spent a dime again to Gameloft after seeing the "amazing" work they did with Asphalt 7...

That isn't optimizing, it's butchery!
Just look at Hamdir's thread on Wildblood & Gameloft optimization! You'll see it only uses one core out of all 12 on the HOX, that's not optimizing my friend...

correction it uses 1 core out of 4 CPU cores i wasnt talking about GPU
CPU can be used to accelerate all the particles and physics processing, which GL chose to ignore the extra 3 cores
looking at Nova3 you can see its smooth but once you have around 3 enemies with their phsycis simluation, it lags bad, the CPU is the ideal place to deal wtih physics and ragdoll but yea, what can i say, its GL, they are spoiled and like the GPU to do all the job and not bother with multithreaded coding
I wonder if the extra 200 mhz in the HOX+ will help in this lag issue.

I doubt it'll be a major improvement if at all. If you consider the fact that it will still be using one core.
I'm no expert in this field but one thing i can say for sure is that operating with just one single core is dependent on the type of game....and If gameloft games are more demanding as i assume in terms of graphics (i don't really game much if at all on phones) then using just that one core is ridiculous, especially if you consider the fact that we are talking about gaming and even further if we are talking about a GAMING PHONE with a quad-core.

One thing I don't get is some Gameloft titles run ok on dual core phones but those exact same titles run laggy on quad core Tegra 3 phones. Can't remember exactly which games those are.

It always comes down to optimization. With that i mean capable hardware, and i'm sure tegra 3, despite not having the greatest graphic hardware is capable
This can be seen in computer games benchmarks. Since i'm planning for a pc upgrade and i'm deciding upon a graphic card, i don't recall exactly which one that was. But there was an incident where a radeon graphic card hit a somewhat better score than the nvidia card. At that point i already thought i knew "hey, we have a winner here already"
..next page there was a game again, where nvidia had clearly beaten the radeon graphic card, where the frame difference was even bigger. Then in other games they performed similarly.
So really, optimization is what it comes down to for capable hardware.
Hahahahaha.. I'm really laughing out loud.. if this real.. no need for me and @Hamdir waste the whole week for Wildblood..

Asphalt 7 released

Finaly the guys at gameloft released the Asphalt 7,i've allready bought it (1 Dollar),but i don't know why the tilting doesn't work,i mean,i tilt my phone but the car doesn't steer,the only way i can play is with the buttons on the touchscreen.Any ideea?Anybody had this problem?

The framerate makes it unplayable for me at stock, it's just too much of a distraction.
I'm waiting on a gameloft update. (sigh)
However, with faux and game booster app it plays pretty good with a decent framerate , but still annoys me that it's still not the framerate it should be & not what iOS users get.
Stock users - I'd say not to bother yet, as the framerate is choppy hell.

Sorry, (in the nicest way possible) .... you must be blind if you think the framerate is ok .
Go have a look at the trailer on the play store, that's how it's supposed to run.
Everyone I've spoken to has mentioned the very poor framerate, even android police the other day mentioned it to be 'definitely choppy' in the pre-review.
It's not Tegra 3 compatible, not really.
It runs at terrible framerates on both my Nexus 7 & HOX.
It may work, but we have to wait on Gameloft for the fix.
This game doesn't even run completely smooth at all on base 2.05, faux kernel and game booster app - stock 1.29 has no chance.
......
Unless your using a U.S snapdragon S4 version, not sure how it runs on that HOX.

Lol, that may be true for NFS, but the size of gameloft games are wayyyyy too big in size.
To think Torchlight is under 600mb for the PC, makes you wonder how a racing game for a phone could be 1.3gb. - ouch.
i don't think the price of an app is an excuse for poor coding - the game shouldn't have been released yet, not in its current state.
I've heard the SGS3 also has framerate issues with this game (just not and severe as most of GL games for Tegra3 devices) and that's operating on a year old GPU, so it shouldn't have optimisation issues - but even here, it does.
But, HOPEFULLY - they will release a fix soon, and not wait a month like they did for batman on Tegra 3.
Sadly, gameloft ain't like madfinger who will respond to you quickly and issue a fix quickly if it's their problem.

Yeah,unfortunaly i've sent an email to them regarding the accelerometer problems,sayd they will investigate the problem,but so far,nothing...i am not an expert programmer,i understand some codes,but i mean,how hard can an accelerometer problem be to solve it?
Luckly that i've got used with the touchscreen "virtual buttons",otherwise i wouldn't played this game.
As for the size of them,i maybe saying something stupid....but...aren't the guys at gameloft using Unity to make the graphics like the guys who made Dead Trigger?I tried like 1 or 2 years ago Unity and the graphics made with that program always use to much space.
Reached championship 9 so far .
Yeah, I think android police agreed with most of us.
Hopefully, gameloft will take note with some bad publicity & make a quick fix.
It definitely seems to be affecting all android devices.
Gameloft should definitely come with a disclaimer warning that it is optimized for iOS only.

Graphics And Performance
Even with the above foibles, Asphalt 7 could be a good game. The deal breaker for me is the overwhelming mediocrity of the graphics. Judging from the screenshots on the Play Store page, this should be a gorgeous game. Instead, it's just average. Even then, only on some devices. On the Nexus 7 the texture resolution is absolutely terrible. Everything in the environment looks muddy. The cars aren't bad, but there is noticeable aliasing along the edges.
I also looked at things on the Galaxy Nexus, and the textures were a little better. I was still not impressed with the overall fuzziness of the roads and buildings, though. The jaggies are not as prevalent here, possibly because the screen is smaller, and I can't see them as well. For whatever reason, performance is questionable on both devices. Both will get a spot of lag from time to time, and the Nexus 7 seems to have a lower frame rate The brightness also looks too high, making the game oddly washed-out. There are a few places that I could barely see where I was going because the gentle blue track markers blended in too well with the background. Turning my device's brightness down did nothing to fix this. I could also see distant objects drawing as I rocketed along. That should not happen on any modern device.
For 1.4GB of game data, I expected stunning graphics. I really feel like some of the smaller Need For Speed games look better than this. Asphalt 7 is not ugly, but it's just not pretty like the screenshots would lead you to believe.
Conclusion
On the surface, Asphalt 7 is a fine game. The controls are solid, and there are plenty of tracks and race types. I can even deal with the in-app purchases because they don't seem exploitative. This is essentially a $7 game that you can have for $0.99, so dropping a few dollars on better cars seems alright. The learning curve is steep, but not to a fault However, the requirement that you have internet access is beyond ridiculous. Things fall apart for me when it comes to visuals and performance. I'm just disappointed in how this game runs on the Nexus 7, and it's not terribly good on the Galaxy Nexus. Lag, low frame rates, and blurry graphics are not what I expect out of 1.4GB of game data. If this game was free, I'd definitely suggest you pick it up to try. As it stands, you could spend $0.99 if you like Asphalt racing games, but there's just nothing that special here.

Haven't tried the others, but Most Wanted certainly works just fine. Had a hell of a time getting it to download (it all of a sudden did, after leaving it alone for a while).

Need for Speed works flawless on mine. Have not tried others.
I can get Nova Multiplayer to work fine, but not the single player. Quite annoying.
I can't get Heroes or Order and chaos or Wild Blood to work correctly. Wild Blood lacks lots of graphics and Heroes crashes on the tutorial without explanation. Anyone have some thoughts?
TomTom doesn't work, but that isn't a game. Some drawing apps don't work yet either (all from the Hello ColorPencil variety), but I'm sure they will be fixed and aren't games.
The Simpsons tapped out has so much lag that I can't play it with this tablet, yet there is no problem when I play the same game on the first note 10.1, I wish I knew what the issue is, maybe it's the 4.3 problem ?.??..

I found it to be very frustrating as well. Turning "power saver" off seems to have little effects as well. I'm thinking that there just isn't good support for the tablet as of yet, it's only two weeks old.

What version of the note are you using? Wifi or lte edition ( exynos or snapdragon)
Could everyone write up what version of the note you're having issues with, that way we might be able to find a patern. I.e what SoC is more stable, reliable.
Basing on similar Note 3 the Snapdragon 800 version has better app compatibility along with better performance.

This is so frustrating. I'm pretty annoyed that I purchased an expensive tablet, and it can't run popular apps/games due to it's processor. Are there any advantages to having the 600?

I'm assuming you meant the 800 snapdragon?
It's faster, a tad more stable ( as far as I've been able to gather ) and seems to have broader support within games/ apps / development.
In essence
Snapdragon better GPU
Exynos Better CPU

Sorry I meant the P600 which has the Exynos. I don't really see any benefit to having it. Sure it has "8" cores, but if it can't run things properly, why bother?
You guys are on drugs if you think the hardware isn't capable of running these games.
Just wait for the developers to update it won't be the end of the world.
-see most wanted and dead trigger 2 for reference, kthx.

I think it's more than capable. I'm worried about actual development more than anything. I think we'll see fewer roms/kernels, and less support for apps/games.
Yeah, we probably won't see roms or kernels thats true, i'm fine with that part as it defeats the purpose of this device.
As far as support from games it will be okay since these devices are selling fairly well (Note 10.1 & morso Note 3).
Asphalt 8 Runs like crap no high settings available
Hey guys,
Its strange to me that Dead Trigger 2, and Need 4 Speed Most Wanted look amazing and run flawless yet Asphalt 8 looks horrible, has terrible framrates, and does not allow you to enable graphics higher than low on this tablet. Hope the devs can update this game so I can enjoy.

I haven't been getting terrible frame rates, granted it doesn't look amazing, but it's not at all bad. Have you turned power saving off?

Sorry to dredge up an old thread but I just got the 2014 edition yesterday and I'm finding this game almost unbearable. But here's the weird part, previously I had the original Note 10.1 and it played fine, just like you say. When I got the new one I wiped the old one to give it to my wife. Now the old one lags terribly too.
This is really frustrating, but at the same time gives me some hope. It ran fine on the old one until I did the factory reset. So that tells me there might be a setting somewhere that can fix this issue.
Of course, this thread is so old you guys might have already solved the issue. If so, please post how you fixed it.

Still an issue. I've tried a number of things - factory reset, CleamROM, standing on my head, starting a new game, etc. Can't get decent performance out of my favourite game! This sucks!
Maybe I should try to open a support ticket with Samsung - wonder if they'd even respond.
