Is There any ROM which is good for gaming and is ICS,JB with good battery life
I like CyanogenMod, but some basic games(Temple Run, Subway Surfer) sometimes lags
i think its due to high RAM usage

try CM9 or other ICS based ROM
Try and flash some roms, and you will definitely have your answer.

I wouldn't use ICS for Gaming, since (even) Temple Run is lagging very hard... (never tried, but people tell Temple Run is lagging..)
I advise you to use Cow Rom v2 OC because it's overclocked to 1,8GhZ (make sure you download the OC Version!), which should be more than enough for Games like for example. Modern Combat 3. The rest of the Rom is fast, too. Not only gaming of course.
BUT(!), don't expect the Battery Life Time to be high..! 1,8GhZ is alot... and that will eat alot of battery...
You got to keep that in mind, and come over it if you want really good gaming...
Im not a gamer at all, not playing anything ! Busy with school, Photography, Design etc. So I don't need that, and can't give you a really "good" advise, but I told you what I think could be the best Rom for Gaming.
Enjoy Gaming

Thank for the advice but what you mean by OC version

It means overclocked.
It tweaks your processor to run at higher speed, which means, your device will process data faster than usual

Normal Version is 1,4GhZ
OC (Ovetclocked) is 1,8GhZ
For gaming you need 1,8 GhZ
Happy gaming

Thanks For all you guys for helping me.:highfive::good:
As I know, Cow kernel is only better in benchmarking, those ROM with stock XXLM8 kernel may be better a bit in term of battery life & real performance (ps: if the game requires a lot of processing power, the OC kernel such as Cow will be better, anyway the original 1.4GHz is already powerful enough for quite a number of games, mostly it lags because SGW is lack of RAM)
Please think twice before overclocking as it may reduce your CPU&GPU lifespan
Good luck

Battery Life in ROMs

Hello all,
I was looking for input as to which ROMs others have found gave them the best battery life, whether it be from a custom kernel, or battery saving features packed into the ROM itself. I am definitely open to opinions too, doesn't really need to be statistically backed.
Just and F.Y.I, I currently use the last Miui.us official supported ROM for the G2 (Just before v4).. For a long time I've had held to the belief that it offered the best degree of battery life for features provided; a trade off, as one might say. I've tried the older Cyanogenmod (back in 8-9ish lol, actually had worse battery life experience than MIUI) and virtuous (urgh, not too much luck, looked nice, buttery smooth...when it finally loaded..G2 doesn't seem to have enough RAM to have any kind of app running without reloading that pesky Rosie launcher) and a few other less-than-well-known ROMs.
I would also like to add that I have steered clear of ICS ROMs, mainly for the fact I can't seem to find a clear superior version that's stable, that also goes for recent sense ROMs, i.e Sense 4.
Any and all advice/opinions are appreciated
Regards,
MIUI
So far I've had best battery life with MIUI, without any tweaks. I think its beacaue most of other custom roms, specialy ICS and sense 3+ roms are overclocked for better performance. Overclocking=Less Battery Life.
From my experience CM7/9 also have a good battery life. If you want more you can reduce max-cpu-speed and min_cpu_speed for lower values. 245Mhz and 800Mhz. this should do the trick. and use some app like Juice Defender. it helps a bit.
I run one of the older AOKP builds and while off for a few days and very light use, had ~20% at 44 hours. During normal days I run quite heavy with BT and wifi hotspot, I can drain it very very quickly.
Elitemod cm7 was the best for me. 10-12 hrs easy heavy use and is real smooth.

Yeah i used elite mod at some point also.. I think I may go back to it now.
I'm getting about 80 hours of light usage (~20 sms and 2 calls, maybe little data, per day) on latest official Miui GB (2.3.23). But with heavy usage (games, wifi, music) i can get it down to 12 hours.

That sounds about the same for me on miui...anyone use juice defender or undervolting? I actually still get like 12 hours moderate/heavy usage clocked to 1587mhz smartassv2.
That 512mb ram optimized Sense4 is looking pretty nice right now though..

Original Xperia T ICS Rom v5.1 for ARC/ARC-S based on (4.0.4) 587 [25-Oct-2012] by zohaib0001, kernel KTG 1.52, BB 77

Return to Stock!!!!!!!

Hey guys I was running nxt 1.3 on the Xperia play and at first it was running games pretty smooth. Then I started restoring my old games and downloading more apps. All of a sudden the games have become very slow and lag badly. I increased my overclock frequency to 1.6 GHz and games were a little smoother but still unacceptable. I was getting about 17 fps in vice city, 23 in real racing 2 and about 24 in modern combat 3.
I couldn't take it anymore so I returned to stock and I flashed doomkernel and now I have overclock frequency of 1.2 and here's the fps scores .
24 GTA vice city, 27 real racing 2 and 33 modern combat 3.
Please return to stock. And get the best gaming performance
hmm.

Hmm Do you mind sharing your whole setup ? I mean what performance tweaks have you done except removing bloatware from stock ofcourse? Also, have you tried Lupus instead of Doomkernel with stock ?

Well I am a bit new here too . But as far as I know , I think u can remove bloatware by rooting and using root explorer. I was gonna flash Nxt rom because essentially its cutted stock rom so in theory it should be better. But quite a few ppl like you seem to be returning to stock and finding it better for gaming. So i did make a question about it too ( which u can see) but havent got satisfactory answer yet . I think I might have to just flash nxt myself and compare performance with stock :s. Btw, I think considering Lupus is still developing for our phones and doomkernel isnt maybe u should give Lupus a try .
xdark
you could also try XDark ICS V0.2 Rom, i find gameplay on this quite good, i got quite a lot of lag on NXT. I use Doomkernel V3. Also Darkforest ICS is good, but i like Xdark as it is closer to sony stock look.

[Q] Battery life - ICS vs GB

I've been trying to test the battery life of GB vs ICS. But the my calculation got confused, could someone help me out and tell me wether i should use GB or ICS for best battery life . For now i'm on stock 62. with doomkernel v22....
Battery life depends on usage really so its irrelevant which is best, and up to you to decide.

Battery life is affected by a lot of things..
How the ROM is tweaked, your personal choice of kernel, installed apps, Facebook, wakelocks etc etc. It is possible to get better battery life out of ICS than GB - just use it right and tweak it for battery then.. yes!

I think GB is good in battery life, just in my opinion :good:
