Games laggier on 4.0.4

am i the only one experiencing more lag and slowdowns in gaming after the update?
not sure if it's a kernel or rom problem.

Dito.

some stuff are messed up, maybe they are related due to the compatibility.

I get a bit of lag on fruit ninja paid

No issues with Angry birds space or Wind up Knight, haven't tried any others yet.

no lag here, what games? its most likely app compatibility.

I don't really play much and OPs claim is very vague but I quickly installed Temple Run and it runs flawless. Also the not very demanding games like Cut the Rope and Where is my water run without problems so far. I recently bought Shadowgun for my Tablet. Maybe I'll try that later but I have no comparison to 4.0.2/3 with this game.

I used to play temple run on my 4.0.3 very smoothly without any lag. But after upgrading to 4.0.4 bugless beast it has become very choppy and almost unplayable when there are many coins.

actually. what kernel is OP using? are you using a OC'D GPU kernel? switch back to a kernel with stock GPU (384mhz)
i have NO lag on temple run.

Stock GPU is 307mhz.
That said, there is no lag here either.

I am using stock kernel. It lags when running over the red coins or using power ups at high speed. What CPU governor are u using?

Temple run lag

Has anyone noticed lag while playing temple run on cm9 or aokp? When on android revolution hd theres no lag at all. I really like the extra features on cm9 and aokp, but the speed and fluidity of android revolution forces me to come back.

Try playing it on android revolition hd. It is silky smooth. Also use francos kernel with the roms.

Doesn't lag on stock.

No lag on stock. But sometimes I swear my swipes don't register. But I could be wrong

No lag on cm9, no lag on stock before.

Change governor and choose Interactive. Then the result would be smooth as silk.

I am running aokp and I can tell u that running morfics trinity kernel temple run never ever ever lags for me.....it is a beautiful thing

Slowdown
Yes, I have the same problem too.
Is not just lag, is slowdowns during gameplay. And the swipe problems I have it too, but I think is related with the slowdown, it takes more time to react so you loose.
If you have play on an iPhone you can notice the difference, is smoother.
I have friends that can do 10 million points on iPhone but on my Galaxy Nexus they cannot surpass 1.5 million.
I'm running stock.

I have crossed 5.5 million. But I can't go on anymore. I would suggest to try a different kernel and use Interactive governer for your kernel.

1.5 is pretty darn easy to pass on this phone...conversely, I get nowhere near that on my daughter's ipod...so thats not really scientific evidence. It just so happens they are used to one device, rather than another.

Amazing Spiderman lagging for anyone?

The game seems to be lagging quite badly on my Nexus 7 whereas its pretty smooth on my Galaxy Nexus. Running motley's kernel with GPU at 484Mhz and no OC
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Yes Ive been wondering the same thing tried it last night and it wasn't necessarily laggy but more choppy in parts .... Im going to try batman today and see if its the same
Im running stock, with trinity kernel OC to 1500, no GPU OC my scores were 6900+ so it maybe is the game in some parts?

Did you guys check the force gpu option in the developer settings menu?

yes, lots of people hitting over 7 k
I keep it at 1500 myself, but tried at 1640 with fsync faster, cpu online and force gpu rendering with trinity kernel and stock rom gets you past the 7 k mark, try it
back on topic, seems like batman ran fine not the type of choppiness that was in spiderman, seems like its a game issue.

It's very laggy. Batman runs great but for whatever reason spiderman runs horribly for me.

Got this e-mail from Gameloft:

We would like to inform you that our developers almost finished the new update which will bring a fix for this, I'm asking you to wait for this update hitting Google Play soon.
Kindly take our apologizes for the inconveniences.

yeah, same here, the game seems to lag a lot when spidey is swinging and when too much action happens. I am glad it's not just me then, I was so surprised, thinking if a quad core nexus tab can't handle it, what can?

I've tried a ton of games on my GN2 and I haven't run into a single game that hasn't been smooth. Everything has been great. Whoever said that is crazy.

Max Payne and GTA3 running without even breaking a sweat here.

Same thing here....the phone rocks man....i havent seen a game that runs slow...maybe it does in power saving mode...but normally you would love the big screen

You might wanna check which forums you were researching on where people were saying that....you might have been on an iPhone forum

Everything runs super smooth here

Nova launcher, as well as Apex launcher, both showing significant visual artifacts when scrolling. Makes them unusable for me So I have to use the stock launcher which is really not pleasant... Anyone has any hints on how to improve Nova's behavior?
The latest Opera browser on Note 2 is also much jerkier compared to Galaxy S3, I have both phones and can compare.

Tried playing wildblood nba 2k13 shadowgun (for quad core) no lag at all.

Strangly, Stick Cricket lags a lot on my note2, but heavier games run smooth..
(i never keep power saving on)

I beg to differ, no problems at all here

lol Does this guy know what thread he is talking about? Nova 3 is a game, launcher guy. omg
btw, my note 2 is running CM 10.1.3 and games run great!

Maybe you should mention the games they're playing, because, well, to be honest, I'm not a big gamer, but I do play a little and I have had 0 lag and stutter. Great device for gaming! Let Apple have a better GPU but on a 4" POS screen ... Next will be the iMagnifyingGlass!
Huge screen, and awesome performance. Totally recommended.

NFS Most Wanted - Stuttering Framerates

I've bought and downloaded NFS Most Wanted from the Play Store on my Nexus 7, however, I have noticed that it stutters and the framerate drops quite considerably at some points.
Just by looking at the clock in the corner I can see that it is not running as fast as it should?
I am running AOKP Build-5 at the moment, with the AOKP Kernel, going to put on Franco.Kernel and see if that makes any difference?
Anyone else seeing anything like this?

I saw that many people talknig the same ..but i have no problem..PA rom with PA kernel 25-35 FPS.

This is only when you are nearing to roadblock, just slowing time to have easier to avoid the block. But it feels like a lag.

Really? Run the game and you will see, that game does not have any lag, except before roadblocks.

Because its populating the screen with more active police cars. That is what is causing the slow down. Its too many things for one core to handle which is why it lags.

Not if the game doesn't see it...
That is where optimization comes in most games are not ready for quad core chips. This is a prime example. Otherwise it wouldn't hesitate and would be be running smooth.

Surely there's a simple way to activate all 4 cores in the game? Maybe just one value in some game script somewhere?
