Epic Citadel: Fantastic benchmark - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Had no idea our SGSIII's are this capable. Worth the download. Possibly the most impressive example of where mobile computing/gaming is going. Makes everything out there look dated.

From what I've seen
On high roofs of buildings render crappy
50% resolution borked the game
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

There's an issue with a few of the roof textures ... [email protected] 1280x720 @ constant > 30fps average of 45 or so on high quality. ...
Its a new demo...im sure a fix for the minor glitches can come out...
Just a guess...by the looks of the corruption it is a frame buffer issue with that surface. No biggie.
So much looks good though, its forgivable for now

so is the main purpose of this app just to show off the great graphics? or is there an actual game to play?? kinda confused and just walking through the enviroment..

Just a tech demo and benchmark.

Looks beautiful. I didn't know this phone was capable of such good graphics. Of course, if that were a game, it wouldn't run it so smoothly with all these other scripts and whatnot running in the background. But still really nice.

XDA Premium App Image Resolution

I can't seem to figure out how to make the images a higher resolution within the XDA Premium App. Whenever I view any image on my phone the resolution is very low and pixelated. But if I am viewing the website on my computer everything is high res. Am I the only one with this problem of is that just how the app is?

You're not the only one buddy

That's what I figured, I just wanted to confirm. I just find that it's unfortunate that we can't see the images at full quality.
Sometimes when I exit the AP and come back it shows.

Speaking of the premium app. Do you see some color flickering in your app at times. I have a few other apps on my phone but this is the only one that causes the color to flicker.

Facebook

The big update finally hit android users. It's way faster. !!!

Doesn't seem any faster at all. I can't tell one bit of a difference. I have a 25 mbit connection and it still takes ages to load photo albums. Still a horrible app.

Idk dude every update that Facebook claims to be "faster" and have "less battery consumption" just seems like bull. It sucks battery no matter what and the app is no faster and completely identical to the mobile site. In fact if you just set your profile to send email notifications it notifies you on everything instantly

Supposedly the app is a complete rewrite to be Android native...Testing it for myself...I've been a big fan of FriendCaster Pro, so I hope they took a few notes from them
I love the new ui. No problems on my end

GS4 lag, weird discovery

So we all know the GS4 out of the box has some atrocious lag. Well I went through the steps to clear a lot of it out without rooting. Just stock, and changing some settings within the OS itself. But I was still noticing some small lag here and there. Well it turns out I put my GS4 on the charger and start using it, and I notice that there is significantly less lag, I unplug it, and then it goes back to usual lag. I have done this back and forth a couple of times, with the same results.
So could it be that Samsung ramps up the CPU when on the charger?

I never experienced lag on this phone until yesterday and I noticed google services was using uo my battery. Went to the google settings and there is a new option call android device manager and I unchecked all the location settings and lag gone. Also if you have google currents go into settings and disable background sync.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
Checked that and it's completely off. I wouldn't put it past Samsung do that, we've already seen them ramp up the processor and gpu for the benchmark rests, my guess is that they lower the clock speed when not charging or maybe below a certain percentage.
Sent from my GS4
No lag here. Sorry to hear that bro
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
It's not like it's everywhere, it's just in a few places, like hangouts, where my One never lagged, or sometimes a jitter when swiping through apps or home screens. Guess I'm just not used to it coming from the One. But there is a difference in performance when plugged into a charger and not.

Watch a movie on the one or play a game. Its night and day compared to the S4.
My cousin has the one. YouTube takes at least 2 more seconds, worse quality, and skips.
Games skip/lag, and loading time is longer for the One.
You gotta take the good with the bad with either phone.

That is true, the YouTube app is much more solid on the GS4. But one small thing is that I get this huge black bar at the top of my YouTube app when I switch from portrait to landscape. Anyone know how to fix that?

That's just the app itself. That's not even a problem. If something like that REALLY bother you, then you're EXTREMELY anal about things.
P.s. I think you're a ONE fanboy that came on here to put down the S4.

The way I installed it was that I uninstalled first using Titanium Backup, and then instead the new version. But you have to be rooted for that.
poor video quality.
Has any one noticed that it doesn't play in 1080p? I hope it can be fixed.
Yea the quality is really ****ty...
I went to general and made sure the high quality square was checked.... Also the three little Dots in the upper right hand corner where you push them while the video is playing it gives a option from CC OR HD.
