Nice, very nice Finally, full hardware accelerated web browser!

Head to 50 seconds ...
Happy .. Happy .. Happy ..
I can now ditched Opera Mobile .
Hell, it's "finally, hardware accelerated UI!".
Lmao. Late to the party. One of the requirements of ICS is hardware acceleration of 2d elements of the ui/os. Its about f'in time google.
I voided my warranty and your mum.
I was hoping some of the browser controls would be at the bottom of the screen since it'll make browsing with one hand easier kinda like in opera mobile, reaching the top tab button will be a pita with your thumb with such a tall screen..
Is scrolling hardware accelerated too? One of the main reasons I liked samsung devices is because of the amazinh smooth scrolling.
Between the click of the light and the start of a dream.
The scrolling and pinching/zooming looks pretty quick and smooth.
I'd like to see the results of a SGS2 browser test ran the Galaxy Nexus: open a bunch of pages with flash videos playing at the same time (I think there were over 10), and then zoom/pinch one of them. The SGS2 handled that without lag. I'd like to see the HTML5 and Flash results from the GUIMark3 benchmark, too.
The Sunspider result is 1983ms (vs. 3385ms for SGS2, smaller is better) and the V8 version 6 result is 1387 (vs. 336 for SGS2, larger is better), so that bodes well for browsing on the Galaxy Nexus.
Cant wait for the ics to my nexus s. Damn smooth
Every video I see makes me more and more excited for ICS and the GN. So damn sick.
[Q] GPU rendering (smoooth scrolling) in Browser
Hi,
I can't find info whether Google implemented GPU scrolling in ICS ala iOS or Samsung in their latest 2.3.4+ firmwares for GS and GS2?
That's only thing that's keeping me away from AOSP (CM7 now), but if it's in the ICS now, I wouldn't care about Samsung abandoning SG1.
If anyone has NG, please try. Thanks.
From the videos I've seen, the whole os is hardware accelerated including the browser

Everything OS-wise is supposed to be 2D Hardware Accelerated according to the Android Code release page. However, it might be more sluggish compared to the SGS2, as they're both Hardware-Accelerated, but the SGS2 is only pushing 480*800 while the Nexus coming in at 1280*720.

The British tech blog, The Inquirer, posted a short review of the Galaxy Prime. This is what it had to say about performance:
"We certainly noticed the speed when browsing the web and opening apps, but we did notice a slight lag when changing the orientation of the device."
The article doesn't mention if the review device was running 4.01 that had the fix for video stuttering and whatnot.

You'd be surprised how little power is required to perform full 2D acceleration.

In Android Central's quick look video of the Galaxy Nexus that was posted today, the narrator mentions that the entire device is hardware accelerated multiple times.
I can't post links yet, but you can find the video embedded in the 4th story on the second page of Android Central. Likewise, you can search YouTube for "galaxy nexus, today" (without the quotes) and it's the first video.
Hope this helps!

I've just seen the video at the AndroidCentral.com. The browser is fast, but the point is not how quick you can scroll the page (it is quick), but how smooth is the actuall scrolling. If you saw iOS in personal (or Samsung 2.3.5+ firmwares for SGS1/SGS2) compared to AOSP, you'd know what I'm talking about.
No smooth browsing as I can see so far, unfortunately.

How do you expect to see 60fps smoothness on a heavily compressed 30 fps video?
And it's getting worse since there is no vsync between phone display and camera when recording the video (of course).

Do you see on the long webpage partial appearing of the page while scrolling on sgs2? On NG?
Have you ever tried Opera Mobile? Even on my SGS it has amazing performance, and you don't see parts of the webpage only render correctly after a delay. It's all 60FPS and rendered right away.
These guys beat Samsung and Google for performance. Only issue is their browser takes a few seconds to start up.
From this video I would say the scrolling in the browser is quite smooth. I had a SGS II before so I have the comparison.

Good eh? Happy now?
Hi does any of you suffer lagging issues from live wallpaper? when i slide between my home screens the animation halt and then resume a second later. the best part is there is no beam in my phase beam wallpaper, lol?
yes same on me
Im suspecting its the Tegra 3 causing the trouble. My tablet with tegra 2 also suffers from lags with live wallpaper

Or the 3D-effect which still also sense 4 have? Since I have this effect on my old desire (with sense 3.5), the live wallpapers stops when I slide the homescreens. And the desire have surely no Tegra
That's likely because the CPU is doing the rendering. The Tegra 3 GPU is better suited for such tasks.
Android Revolution HD rom for the One X should not have such issues since CPU rendering is entirely disabled and all rendering done via the GPU.
In future, we should be able to do this without flashing a ROM as long as you have root. Anyone know which value to edit to disable CPU rendering?
I think this is caused by Sene... Same on sense 3.0, 3.5 & 3.6... Same wallpaper i am using on my Transformer works smooth.
Using this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS5ka2Vlc3RvLmRpZ2l0YWxoaXZlZnJlZSJd
GPU 2D Rendering cannot be enabled...so can't test it...
This is a feature of sense, nothing to do with the Tegra, it was implemented by HTC, if a AOSP rom is built for the One X then it won't have this "feature"
I forced GPU rendering and GPU UI rendering on my One X. Does not solve this problem.
I agree. This is a HTC sense problem. Probably due to the Carousel effect. Finding a way to modify Rosie.apk to remove this effect and see if it works fine after that.

Certain apps like Bacon reader and Words with Friends have a bit of a stutter when you scroll.
I just noticed this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKV3...T7H5tICpulyJw&index=1&feature=plpp_video&hd=1
and was wondering if I flash ICS onto my Inc2, will I be able to activate the GPU acceleration and make the stutter go away?

Hopefully but I am not sure if we will have that option in the real ICS.
Only game I am having issues with playing is:
The Infinite Black
Anyone else play this game and having low fps? I am getting 36 fps on chat, but when I look at map, I drop to 4 fps.
Rebooted, reinstalled, cleared ram, even tried force gpu in dev.options. everything i could think of doing to make it play better. Even tried chainfire app to lower textures, that i had from my G2X.
Trying to figure out if my phone is screwed or the game. Every other game i play is flawless.
S3 stock room, rooted

The map does seem rather choppy. At least I assume that was what it was, the colored circles with lines connecting them (I've played this game once, a long time ago.) I downloaded it to check it out, see if it would give me the same issue. Have you tested it on other devices? I just tested it on my Prime (which is outperformed by my S3) and it was relatively smooth. It seems it is just the game.
Using cm10 am getting 35fps. Not sure what the low fps on ics is.
Went back to ics, 4fps.
Not sure why the galaxy on ics is so slow.
Oh well. My fix was jelly bean.

If power-saving is enabled at all on a stock based s3 ICS rom it seems to slow the phone down a lot, especially when swiping through screens.
I pay restaurant story and its so choppy on all ICS that I've try but my So my girl G2x ran it really smooth , I install CM 10 game runs smooth as heck idk what's the deal here but I love my TW

According to my tests with System Tuner, power saving mode lowers max CPU speed to 1.13ghz.
So I've had my S3 for a couple of months now, and I was just wondering about the performance. I thought the S3 was supposed to be extremely powerful, yet it lags on high end games such as NOVA or Modern Combat. Also when texting, the keyboard will sometimes lag. Does this happen for anyone else, and is there a solution to fix it, such as trying a different ROM or something? I also want to keep a decent battery life.
Set all animations to 0.5x in developers options, force 2d gpu rendering check it. Might help. I've played nova and it didn't lag on me.
