Do you have root.
I can provide you the stock gallery app... Just replace it using root explorer
Right now, I'm using my stock rom but i've used creed and infected rom before. And of course, i have rooted my phone and have installed chanfire 3d.

Ya, you must have tweaked graphics with chainfire3d, try uninstalling the driver of chainfire3d or just disable all tweaks of it
Sent from my GT-S5360 using Tapatalk 2
Just un-check the box for reduce texture and other checkbox and use default (NONE) for shredder
Thanks guys. Might i know how it's connected?? I mean, chainfire 3d is used for playing games.

Chainfire3d's driver sits between your rom instructions and the original gpu driver....
So making any tweak will affect the display of many apps... Not specific to only games

Its used gaming for gaming for better graphic and performance
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
From what I have experienced using it, is that it lowers down the graphic performance so that the game can run smoothly. Speed at the cost of high end graphics
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
It is a GUI modification software, it is capable of lowering down graphic details so that a certain program can run in lower performance phones. But it does not support most games though, I tried, uninstalled. It can even reduce quality of your launcher if you wanted to. But then your phone will look bad.
all the previous posts are relatively correct but ill just tell you one thing

the dev of the app was the one who said his app doesn't support ics or jb (it has no improvement when its installed and applied, no changes are done) so i guess if u can see any improvement using it on miui, u shall tell him

In a nutshell:
Gingerbread ROMs are known to have incomplete OpenGL ES support. 3D games *require* OpenGL ES. Chainfire 3D adds the necessary drivers to Gingerbread.

Thanks everyone for the BIG replies... Anyway I tried installing it on my CM9 ROM and it does work cos' i think i set everything to perfomance graphics and then when i reboot, EVERYTHING become distorted including the icons... Temple Run does work weirdly but it SO smooth using it... Now, due to my MASS flashing power, Im using MIUI and i will install Chainfire 3d

i've been using this app since my GB days with my wonder,,
and i can say that its working for me,,,
i've tried it with raiden legacy,, reduce to 16 bit,,, and now there's no white screen problem within the game compared to playing this one without chainfire3d
NICE! So in order to make gaming smoother, i have to reduce to 16 BIT? I tried with CM9 once and icons became distorted... :/ What configs do you use ?

Hello all.
I have my Xperia S for one month now and I am becoming more and more frustrated with the frequent lags and slowness of the system in general.
On the same day I bought it, I discovered that I was with a locked bootloader and from then on, despite my attempts to improve the system by rooting and trying several Roms I am about to give up hope.
I am now with KA25 ROM but already tried XZXperience 2 and Turbo ROM. From all of these I must say that sooner or later the system becomes laggy and starts to have strangely large access times to some actions or apps.
I notice this in the contacts app a lot, in the messaging app, on the in-call and after call screens, slow loading times while performing normal tasks, like in the album scrolling and accessing images, hiccups and annoying sounds within the Walkman app. Don't know where to even start or stop.
Sometimes I feel that it must be something related to ICS but I would like to have your opinion on these issues.
Also, I am having thoughts about going back to basics and just factory reset the whole phone. Would this clean all of the "debris" the rooting and appliance of several Roms could have done to the phone?
How would I do this? Just flashing with flashtool a clean stock image?
Any advice or any second thoughts, or even the sharing of similar experiences would be great and I would be grateful.
Looking to hear from you soon.

Thanks for the feedback. When you mention tweaks what do you precisely mean? Because I have tried some tools like Pimp my ROM which state to have entropy generators and other speed tweaks but up until now it is pretty much of the same...
However I must agree that waiting for Jelly Bean is the most straightforward solution however I am surprised that a good device like Xperia S has this difficulty dealing with ICS or any usual tasks.
I came from an HTC Sensation XE and with ICS ROMS these issues were not so frequent.
However and I must address this in the topic I have been restoring the apps from ROM manager when changing ROM. Would this have any influence in the short term to the system stability and general speed?
Many thanks.

Here's what i did,hope i can help you with smoothness.First of all clean flash your stock ftf to remove all tweaks.After that flash the seeder zip file in cwm(search for it in forum).No other tweaks should be there except the touch screen pressure in system-user-idc set it to .001.Now install Mr.Nice guy app in playstore or from blackmart.Download the latest xperia launcher v 2.05b (set its transparency of app drawer to 70%,app drawer size 6*5).Now in mr.nice guy app set this xperia launcher priority to high. Thats it now you will have a very smooth rom.Not to mention you can always install the sony widgets for this launcher

Regarding your advices I am only having trouble with Mr. Nice Guy app as it is a paid one and reviews are not very convincing.
However I am having up until now a very smoother experience, nevertheless I am considering changing the launcher as this one is not allowing any changes with the icons and also my favourite widget (Walkman) still does not appear.

On grand, has anyone been able to achieve full graphics? When i change build.prop model name to I9505 ( forgot the whole name), the high graphics are cool, but not all effects are seen, for example, the tyre smoke effects,crash glass, sparks etc. The ones noticeable are blur effects,blur when nitro,water on roads,headlights of cars(they are seen in low graphics too :/ ).Also the objects and other vehicles are missing(i saw them when i changed model name to the one of note 2 iirc). I am running stock 4.2.2 atm and plan to flash CWM 10.2 . Has anyone been able to get all graphics, as advertised(i saw a few effects on gameloft official website, the animations were shown- a mobile and the game running on it)) ? If so, what mod/settings have you used? I really wanna play this game.
You can try to change the model number to N7000 by editing in build.prop and it will have smoky effect, headlight effect and many effects are there..
Hope it helps..
