So I have been trying to play GTA III lately. I notice some lag in my play sometimes it will completely STOP until it catches up. It's quite annoying. Now I would think that our SII could handle such a task. I have it over clocked with SetCPU. I have it in airplane mode. And clear other apps out of memory before I start playing. Are there any other gaming tweaks / mods I could utilize I'm not aware of. I've run other games like Dead Trigger, BIA 2, Skies of Glory with no issue. This just lags and sticks ALOT.. Thanks!

What ROM or kernel? Also, if you had the game, then clean flashed, it might not delete the extra game files you downloaded. This causes issues with the game when you reinstall. Try deleting the app, reinstalling clean, and redownloading the files.

I'm running the legendary Darkside Evolution version 8 with TDJ'S kernel. (Should have included this duh ) I've never flashed over this game. First time install. Thanks for the input!

I'm on Paranoid Android and not overclocking and I've played GTA3 for hours today with not one hiccup. It's awesome. With CM10 and other Roms I've used, different kernels and overclocking it worked great but it had it's occasional lag.

I think that if you were running TDJ's rom/kernel, it would be sufficient to run GTA 3 smoothly. However, still try different rom/kernel combos.
Last time I was playing GTA 3 was when I had AOKP ICS MS4/TDJ's AOKP kernel and i never lagged.
***Also, try switching governors/schedulers to Smartassv2/sio. or to go even extreme performance/sio and see if it still lags. And play around with different combos.
The thing is that he has the best possible ROM to play this game on. TDJs kernel actually has the GPU overclocked. There's something screwing up your installation. If I were you I'd titanium back up your apps and make a clean reinstall of your evo 8 installation. I guarantee you that would fix it.

Thanks for all the help! I'll look into doing these. I used an Aroma installer call. "pimp my rom", maybe it made modifications to TDJ'S Rom in the negative...

Gaming performance has increased for me and my users a lot after flashing this. It also comes with a bunch of other tweaks to. I use it in my Rom
So, is there a lot of difference in this and the pimp my rom mod? Just curious. And also should I perform a fresh flash before I install this rather than installing it on top of the pimp my rom mod?

Nope my rom uses both. When you flash the supremacy script it deletes any tweaks from pimp my rom that might interfere with its own.
So you don't have to "de-pimp" your rom.
Just on off topic question. When I play GTA, I use tilt mode, but it always swerves to the right, and when I put my phone straight up, it turns straight. I was wondering if anyone has a solution to this? I'm sure many people have experienced it and I haven't found a solution through Google search. MIUI 4.1 with h0tcakez 2.3.3.

My phone sleeps like a baby for 89% on Bonsai v5.0.
This issue is usually something trying to sync and the modems being lousy on GB so far. Turn all syncs to manual, FB, Gtalk, emails, Twitter, all...and see if that let's it sleep. Also go into running services and see what apps are in memory. Stop ones that are not system and see if that does it.
Mine sleeps good on marcusiants rc10 rom... with ee03 modem, but wouldn't go into deep sleep with ec05 modem.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
The DK28 modem is also known for this on GB. Also removing brightness.apk or lcdtest.apk can also cause this. And I have seen it right after instlling GB KB from the market, that right a KB ould keep it from going into deep sleep. Once we can tweak the kernels this will all be a thing of the past even if it isnt fixed in the final release.

Dosnt that just drain your battery?
No. It forces the GPU to run instead of the CPU. It works in a similar way as when you run a game, the GPU controls all the graphics while the CPU handles the rest. So the GPU should be used to handle the GUI, not the CPU handling processes and GUI. And leave the GPU doing barely any work.
Also certain apps will not run correctly, like the XDA app

I really do not know what you guys are talking about. I have that option turned on right now, and it works PERFECT. Also, did you know the developers enabled that on GB? But did it do anything bad to the phone? No. Did you guys agree? Yes.

i think it is the default for aokp... i just looked and it was checked on my phone and i don't remember doing it (and i just flashed an updated build yesterday).
I've been using that setting for a couple days now. I've notice no ill effects. Seems fine.

Some pics don't show up in the xda app regardless, that has been an issue for awhile now. Has nothing to do with having that checked.
Are you saying it happens more often with it checked?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The app itself should be optimize to take use of it. If an app can do it, it will automatically do it. I personally recommend leaving it unchecked for various reasons such as the picture problem stated above as well as not every app is coded to work with it properly.
Using the latest XDA app, premium or free.. do you guys still get notified whether its message or thread subscription??? After updating to ICS, I noticed it doesnt notify me anymore..
Idk what you guys are talking about. I've had ICS since the nexus s and ALWAYS tick 2d gpu with every flash. Its become second nature for me. It forces gpu acceleration throughout. There's absolutely no harm done by this. And if you say there is, send a log cat of the error to the dev because its the roms fault.

Hey guys. Just solved an issue with Pandora and not being able to create stations on the newest Pandora and being rooted. Now the only issue I'm having is my music being cut out whenever I open an app or really any button that isn't the main home button. It cuts out for like half a second. It's really annoying is anyone having or have had the same issue and any solutions? I thought it was just cyanogen mood but I've installed different roms and no go.

Try setting your minimum cpu 540mhz or higher sometimes games won't perform unless at a higher cpu
setting. That might not be the problem for final fantasy though. Just a suggestion though.

Don´t know what post you are reading and who is giving such advices, as it´s anyway enabled in Arcos roms. The only thing you can additionally do is to force 2D apps to use GPU rendering as well insteed of using CPU rendering.
In games the GPU and its rendering is anyway used, so that´s pure nonsense and has no sideeffect when forcing other 2d apps to use it as well.
