Or what is the difference between froyo and honeycomb when running apss?
Doesn't every software use the hardware and how is it possible to run app without using the hardware?
I can't get it, so please explain
Honeycomb will use the GPU to accelerate the UI, Internet Browser etc. (So 2D elements too, not just 3D - that means full hardware acceleration).
Honeycomb will come with hardware acceleration, and with just a single line of code, existing applications can take advantage of the 2D hardware acceleration. Honeycomb will come with a new engine for powering 3D graphics on your devices.

I ported essential i1 rom from z to zl today. Everything seems to be working fine except that hw rendering is broken even 3gp videos lag in hw rendering both in sony and 3rd party players. Can anybody hep me.
Which libs should i replace to get hw rendering working again

So we all know we can force 2D GPU acceleration in the developer menu. This makes older apps run much smoother, with best example being the official adobe reader. This app changes from laggy mess to smooth butter when GPU acceleration is enabled.
On the other hand, my nexus 7 commonly freezes ("black screen of death"). I am suspecting this to be caused by this GPU acceleration option. Is there a way to enable GPU acceleration for certain app, so that it turns off when the app is exited?
Thanks!
Is there a new ROM with hardware acceleration on KitKat? Browsing With Cm si really slow compared to 4.3..
Hi all,
I seems to have a little problem when it comes to reading h.265 encoded files. I'm on MX Player and while the software decoder works (but with stutters on the image, except for very low size files) the hardware decoding option gives me a black image at all times. I don't understand why i can't seem to decode h.265 since qualcomm affirms that snapdragon is able to decode it.
Any idea where this is coming from ?
I'm on stock LP rom with the last update.
Thank you

Try a different player - BS Player for example (or VLC Player).
Tried a whole bunch of player but none is working unfortunatly
All failed too decode smoothly with software (either video lagging and getting out of sync with audio or partialy grey image). Our 801 isn't powerful enough to decode h.265 with some software...
What i don't get is why no player seems to be able to use hardware support to decode the video since qualcomm said that we got h.265 support Could it be rom related ?

Well, I'm on OmniROM and have the exact same behaviour...

That doesn't sound good
I also tried to change the screen resolution (to FHD and HD) while playing a video but same issue, i get the sound but no image in hardware mode...
I'm starting to think that h.265 support from the snapdragon 801 isn't real :/
Update!
I'm actually running a test drive on the SlimSaber LP ROM, and I'm totally able to smoothly play HEVC /h265 files using MX Player and the HW decoder.... :victory:
However, it complains that the HW+ decoder isn't supported.
That's some good news
Gonna give it a try, thanks for the update
About, HW+ decoder, i can't get it to work on any of my devices... Doesn't really matter when we already have HW i guess^^
EDIT : Little update here ! Tried SlimSaber to see about the hw decoding support (thax to AngryHapposai), worked fine, then went back to Color OS and hw decodinf was still supported ! Problem was the kernel on stock wasn't able to give us hw but the kernel from slimsaber (Linux 3.4.x) was... Restore with TWRP didn't reset kernel and after 3 days of use everything seems to work like a charm, hardware decoding included !
