Speed up games in ics - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

It freezes because it's insufficient ram while playing. Try to close some apps before playing.

Try using some gaming tweaks and RAM tweaks such as Supercharger6, game booster, RAM manager, and so on. Maybe some bloatware stock system apps can be freezed or uninstalled in order to free RAM usage, because usually some stock system apps run in background. Hope this helps..

okay i'll try it. thanks
Same here
I'm facing the same problem too with my InDroid V6 REMICS ROM too! Its playable but only when things get nasty like when you hit against a wall with your car during the start... Although Dead Trigger seems to work fine... btw, can you give me the link for your CM10 a2 ROM thingy?
Working Fine now...
I've installed CM10 Alpha 3 and GTA lll works fine but with a few lags... No freezes like my old ROM... I also installed Supercharger V6, TweakZ, Bravia Engine and Geeky Engine MOD on my device and it seems to have no improvement whatsoever.... At least GTA3 work :good:
Thanks anyway!
But it also seems lag, so I will try vice city tomorrow

Not possible with ICS,on any ROM,games lag to much,i have tried ICS stock,and with Ultimate HD but to laggy,so i downgrade it to GB.GB rocks with heavy gaming.

The only game I'm aware of that doesn't work with ICS is Shadowgun, all other games should generally work on ICS, more so if you're using a custom ROM, I'm using Xperia Ultimate HD2, and it works pretty well, plenty of Ram available, just make sure you don't fill your phone with apps that use up your phones storage and runs in the background, try finding alternative apps that are smaller and don't run on the background constantly. If you have a CPU clocking app, make sure it's set to performance and you should be able to run anything.

Did you play heroes o&c? My arc s runs runs smooth in tutorial but when I loading match, it fc.
Btw, thanks for your advices

Ah, no I haven't, I don't really like games on mobile devices, and I refuse to download a game that's 800mb, mainly because I only have an 8gb S.D card, if you check the reviews, people with our phone seem to be able to play it.

if you're much of a gamer, just install x-gamer rom. it's based on GB but tweaked

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.

Close any apps that you don't use while playing the game or switch to a custom ROM dedicated to gaming. Reboots in game usually means not enough RAM.

Have you overclocked your CPU? This is the main reason, why reboots happen.

Not enough RAM would not reboot the phone, but Android would just shut down unneeded apps, first background apps, then the main app (in this case, the game) etc etc.
