I thought SGX540 that's superior than iphone4 would run new games without any lags but for new games such as 9mm and let's golf 3 i've face many stutter on those games. I'd like to ask others that you have problem like me or not ? or maybe next time i'd go back to ios or waiting ice cream sandwich. Those games are smooth in iphone4 but not in galaxy s that has superior GPU.
I didn't play to 9mm and I just tested Lets Golf3, but yeah... it's not strange to have some small lags sometimes.
If gaming on the phone is very important for you I suggest to use samsung roms and not cm7 or miui.
And yeah, maybe you should have buy an iPhone, Android still can beat iOS when it comes to games
im currently on JVT.firmware

I notice the lags too. I strongly believe that the lags are caused primarily by low ram. On Froyo, I never had lags in games, and they were all super smooth. But on gingerbread, after a few hours of usage, the ram drops below 100mb, and the games will lag. The games don't lag on a fresh boot. Hence, the problem is not with the gpu, but with the fact that 512mb of ram is just not enough for gingerbread. If you want to remove the lags in games as well as in the phone interface, I recommend that you flash a 2.2.1 rom. ZSJPK was one of the best roms I've ever used.
Yeah, sgx540 is better than the 535 use in iphone 4, but it's all about drivers and optimisations. And we can't deny that Apple is doing a wonderfull job with iOS.

indeed, i also think the lags are caused by lack of ram...
when you move the camera around in the game it sometimes hangs and when the textures are in RAM, you can continue playing without fps drops or lag
a tip before you start playing:
- root your phone and install "autostarts" to disable all crap which boots up with android
- reboot phone
- after booting go to task manager and cleanup ram
- go to settings => applications => active services and kill unnecessary processes. (for example, when you close the facebook app, it still keeps running as a service, sometimes almost using 50MB ram)
i reduced lag in 9mm alot with the method above...
Is there a custom rom that has a very low ram consumption? that would fix this issues

how many ram does system take with that rom?
For games playing, 2.2.1(JSD) is a Must!

Reboot my phone. Clear memory with task manager. Kill active services... just to game? Why not just close some apps? Common sense, people. It's a brilliant thing.

Yes, it's called V6 Supercharger Script. It's like a ROM, but it's actually just a script... and you can run that script on whatever ROM you want. What it does, is it lets you pick a number. That number decides how much free RAM you'll have. Then, like magic, you just have it.
There hasn't been a single piece of good advice in this thread...

I can't use supercharger with semaphore kernel, and CF bigmem settings (98 mb) doesn't solve the performance issue.

No, custom roms, even so called simple and bare ones, use more ram than stock roms. I recommend ZSJPK 2.2.1, which has about 180mb of ram on boot, and an average of 120-140mb or ram after two days' usage.

Then you do it without the script. What's the problem here? I have over 2,000 games on my phone. And no, that wasn't a typo. None of them lag.

because android automatically closes apps when RAM is low and services always keep running in the background, whether you need them or not.
why would you let a service use your ram when you don't even need it? THAT is common sense.
bigmem kernel may help? its what i use

I've rolled back to froyo and now without apps in the background i0ve about 140mb of ram used, and now 9mm goes smooth. I'm not moving from froyo any more.
Also, now the battery lasts in 6 hours of screen usage, and with jvt only 4 hours

Are they though? When I help someone out, I tell them correct information. If I don't know the correct information, I don't tell them anything. Why? Because incorrect information is worse than not helping at all. Few people in this thread have given remotely acceptable advice. No one needs to do a 3-step process, including rebooting your phone, just to play games; likewise, no one needs to downgrade to Froyo in order to game either.
I have Let's Golf! 3D installed currently, but I don't have the most recent revision of 9MM—although I have played it in the past. I have my phone's CPU and GPU overclocked, like I'm sure many of us do here, and I can play both without noticeable lag. I didn't have to reboot my phone to play them. I didn't have to uninstall apps to play them. I didn't have to flash an entirely new ROM to play them. And I certainly didn't need to stand on one leg with the phone above my head to play them.
Bad advice is just bad.

I posted what helped reducing lag in 9mm on my phone.
if you don't need the help i posted, that's too ****ing bad. the fact this topic was started shows people are facing the same problem with lack of usable ram memory for 9mm.
looks like you have some sort of magic phone with unlimited amounts of ram memory that never lags
the reason why i told him to reboot his phone is because ram usage is much less in most cases, right after booting up.
and btw, next time do some more effort instead of posting one line if my information is not correct
Hello all,
I am the owner of a rooted xperia play with stock rom.
I've installed link2sd so that I can save some ram and space: moved most of my apps on the SD card, and deleted some unwanted native apps (Bruce Lee, Fifa, etc...) and "freezed" the others I did not dare to delete.
But this is not enough for me to play games like GTA III and Dead Trigger smoothly, even with a task killer and airplane mode set on. I suffer from many lags while playing greedy games.
I've done some researches on this forum and found some potential solutions:
- Using boosting apps like: gamebooster, ram manager pro, chainfire 3D pro, etc...
- Overclock the processor up to 1,6ghz with setCPU or other apps.
-Increase SD card performance and optimize ram as explained below:
Increase SD card performance
1. Navigate to /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0 folder in your Xperia Play
2. Press and hold on the read_ahead_kb file. This action will pop out a new menu.
3. Choose Open With Text Editor option
4. Change the current value to 1024
5. Save your changes and exit
Optimize RAM
1. Grab the Juwe_Update18082011_RAM_Script.zip
2. Extract the file and put it on your SD card
3. Launch the Root Explorer
4. Navigate to /system/etc/
5. Create a new folder, named it as init.d
6. Copy the S97ramscript file into that folder
7. Set the perms of S97ramscript file to rwxrwxrwx
What is your advice? Can I use safely one (or several) of those solutions? What are the risks? Which solution is really effective and will allow me to play demanding games?
My xperia play is still under warranty so I don't want to lose it. Which means I don't want to try custom roms or custom kernels... Until my warranty ends.
Thanks for your help!
Well, the biggest performance boost, overclocking, requires a custom kernel. Not much else really makes a huge difference
Also, I believe using the init.d directory requires a custom kernel as well

Did not know about this one...
It has a lot of success judging from the number of pages in the official v6 Supercharger thread...
But seems a bit complicated to me. Does it really works? Have you noticed some improvements in your performances?
More importantly, does it preserve the phone's warranty? I've read somewhere that it can be uninstalled so I guess so, but I'd like a confimation first.
Thanks for your help.
Look, the amount of times I have seen this type of thread open is astounding I would like to point that you use gingerbread any version (2.3.7 Moded to look like rom) and a custom kernel such as Doomlords etc. Supercharge or use a rom like Dike's. You only get best performance with using less apps, rebooting the phone before playing a game, task killers, clean your cache, installing phone eco friendly apps and use a governer for your preference!

No you wont because you have to root, rooting voids the warranty anyway but you can simply unroot after...

I saw a vast improvement in my phone with V6. Its really easy. Just place the scirpt on your SDcard. Download script manager, then select the V6 script, check run as root, and hit go. Follow the on screen selection.
I did the following
512 HP super unleaded (Bulletproof home)
Nitro Lag nullifier
Seriously.... BIG difference in my phone. I could b playing a game and hit the home button.. BAM... there instant no lag no redraw, nothing just all there ready to go. Seriously cannot praise it enough.
nice..
Just to share my experience.
I've bought Ram Manager Pro finally.
I know it's probably not as effective as an overclock or V6 Supercharger, but I do not want to mess with the kernel, custom roms or scripts.
I'm running on stock gingerbread rooted, I've removed the bloatwares and I think it's enough modifications already. I don't want any bugs or troubles with stability so I don't want to modify the OS too much.
Anyway, I'm using Advanced Task Killer along with Ram Manager Pro... And it works! Really.
I was not able to play GTA because it was too laggy, but with Ram Manger Pro set on "Hard Gaming", I was able to improve the graphics (max details, dynamic shadows, 75% clipping and 80% resolution) and it plays rather nicely. It's not really smooth (not like 60 FPS) but it's far enough to be playable and enjoyable.
It wasn't without Ram Pro Manager. SO it's worth trying. Don't expect miracles but some gain in performances, surely.
Maybe I should try an alternative launcher as I heard it can improve performances as well... Any suggestions for a light and modest one?
Also, is there anyway to prevent Maps, Facebook, Crash bandicoot or Super Monkey Ball to start automatically even with task killer? I can understand (to a certain extent) that Maps and Facebook needs to start and connect, but Crash Bandicoot and Monkey Ball??? Seriously? WTF?

Speed up the galaxy y smartphoneGuys today I am going to teach you how to speed up the galaxy y.The galaxy y has many problems.Low ram and processor speed being one of them.However,this is mostly due to factors which can be reduced and avoided.This guide is divided into two parts.Root section and Non root section.The rooted users can follow the non root section too but the non rooted users cant follow the root section(Duh!!)After following these steps your galaxy y should run like a galaxy s2!!!:laugh::laugh::laugh:
Non Root Section
Apps
Get these two cool apps to boost your phones speed:
1)Android Speed booster(its Free)
2)Smart Ram booster(free and paid)
Some ppl use Nq mobile booster but i personally think its meant for high end phones.The Nq mobile booster itself hogs abt 20 mb ram in the background and,for the most part,its like an antivirus.
Widgets
Widgets are meant for quick access and are one of android's biggest selling points.However,loading up your home screen with widgets can be counterproductive as they hog ram.one or two widgets are O.K but over three? cause for worry.And,avoid interactive widgets like animated ones.they are ram hoggers!!
Service Check
Many people will be surprised to see this here but really,its one of the most important steps.Long press on the home screen.Go to Add>Shortcuts>Settings>Running Services.It should then place a shortcut on your home screen.Periodically,click on the shortcut and check how many services are running in the background.Useless ones like games services can be terminated!
This step may sound tedious at first,but itll soon beccome a habit for speed geeks.Try this step,youll be surprised how many useless servicves can be terminated,thus freeing up precious ram...
Antivirus
Are you using lookout? if yes,then change to AVG.Lookout hogs over 25 mb ram in the background!!Sorry lookout fans!!
App configurations
Have you configured a app to run in the background?? if so ask yourself this questiono I really need that service?At the cost of ram??If the answer is no,then change the app configuration.If its yes,then you arent a speed freak
Launchers
Launchers are awesome.period!Not only are they more customizable and look better,many a time,they also use less ram than your stock launcher!So,what are you waiting for,if youve not already got one,them get one!!!Some of the best launchers(graded on speed,storage usage,and memory)are:-Lightning launcher,Adw launcher and launcher pro.Go launcher uses too much ram and storage,making it an ideal choice for high end phones but not for the y!!
Root Your Phone!!
The following steps require root access.So go ahead root your phone! its 99.9% safe!Just google root the galaxy y and there appears the process!Its a really simple process really.Just6 downloading a file called update.zip and installing it in recovery!
Root Section
V6 Supercharger by zeppelinrox
As any speed freak would know,the v6 supercharger is an awesome script made by an xda dev called zeppelinrox.It basically defragments your ram,changes priorities and most importantly,makes your phone blazingly fast!Here is the link to a guide made by another xda dev called carl dean catabay:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603953
Apps
Get the following apps for root to speed up your phone
1)Autokiller memory optimizer
2)Game booster
I dont think they are available on play store,so get them as apks!
Bloatware and Crapware
Apps preinstalled by the manufacturer and wireless carrier are called bloatwares.Most of them are absolutely useless and do nothing but hog ram and storage.So,do you want them on your phone?Hell no!!So get a root file explorer and delete them in system/app!!
Custom Rom
A custom rom can greatly enhance your phone!Besides,its also a certificate of geekiness!So,get a custom rom today!!But before that,i would like to say that custom roms and V6 Supercharger dont mix well.So,first check whether your rom is compatible or not before running V6 supercharger.
Authors NoteI would first of all like to say that I am not responsible for any damage to your device which may have occurred from not following some root steps properly.It is,as i said,99.9% safe but some noobs will have still bricked their phones!Secondly,I would like to ask you not to copy my guide onto other forums.Lastly,please rate this thread five stars if it helped.New steps will be added soon!!

Android has its own taskkiller and it manages accordingly, using taskkiller will result in a decrease of performance...

On the defensive now,apps like speed booster just kill unnecessary apps and clear cache,thus giving a quick,temporary,but effective speed boost.thus,they dont need root
As for antivirus,in this day and age its just stupid not to have an antivirus.AVG used5mb ram,lookout uses 26!thus i say switch to AVG.
By app config,i mean the setting of the app.for example, enabling real time scanner on a antivirus could have a negative effect on performance.such settings can be tweaked inside the app itself.
V6 supercharger works 90%of the time.and cuz of xda,even the other 10%can get it to work!!
I didnt get ur look above.
And,noobs are not generally speed freaks.so,i thought any not noob would know the difference between bloatware and important app
And custom roms give speed increases and a new lease of life to devices.
Thanks for the advice,
Hope i clarified things.

And,noobs are not generally speed freaks.so,i thought any not noob would know the difference between bloatware and important app
And custom roms give speed increases and a new lease of life to devices.
Thanks for the advice,
Hope i clarified things.

all task killer not kill unnecessary apps, they kill random unlucky apps. they don't know which one is unnecessary. if you open browser then need do something like check your mail, then your task killer think your browser is useless because it' not active, then all your opened page is lost and need to reopen (download). that's not fast
and what do you mean with cache? io/storage cache in memory? only kernel can do it, and it's completely automatic. and cache make io/storage access faster. or disk cache? you need root access.
and android already have build in task killer which is already working great in gingerbread.
antivirus? freaks don't need antivirus. freaks read apps permission. freaks not install apps from untrusted source. freaks aware if something wrong with his/her device.
good custom rom give speed improvement. bad one is not. the question is which one is good ? if your answer is non noob would know which one is good, then all non noob already know all you tips. they don't need it.
i love android. unfortunately android community have a lot of myth and misconception

if you insist...in a more explained reason. no user level app could kill another user level app. more ram space is also always be a bad idea in a linux based system like android. a simple test with an app like antutu will shows you an objective and measurable result. no performance boost
As for antivirus,in this day and age its just stupid not to have an antivirus.AVG used5mb ram,lookout uses 26!thus i say switch to AVG.

personally I prefer to use none of it. no malware reported could damage our system. most of them only a kind of data stealing app. we could filter it faster than any antivirus did. even if we accidentally installed one, we can simply uninstall it. system damage count-->zero. the ram usage is only one thing. we should also consider the cpu load on our device. these kind of app use more resource than usual app.

can you run it on stock rom with stock kernel? of course not. you can check the values between this tweak and the one in the system. most of them are different.
1. these tweak needs a custom kernel with init.d support.
2. galaxy series tweak like adrenaline, stamatis's or nitrospeed is more favored since they're specially designed for low ram devices like sgy. v6 is too general and not suitable with our device. you should understand it better than anyone else

nope...even a dev need that list. if this thread isn't for noob then why should it exist? most advanced user already know about this stuffs. they even make their own tweak and rom for theirselves.
for the custom rom, are you sure it faster? most of custom roms have a kind of placebo effect, makes the user 'feels' that it faster than stock rom. well, that's a subjective view on it. on an objective view, custom rom have average 1800-1900 antutu score. the highest result is ~2100 with repencis rom. on other hand stock rom could hit 1900+ easily. the highest score is ~2200. none of custom rom could beat it ^,^v

Nope, it doesnt increase battery life too, it instead decreases..androids default task killer isnt horrible, its the correct balance between ram, performance and battery saving.
Game booster never overclocks(lol), its a placebo effect, you need a overclock kernel to do that.
Did I cuss something there? You seriously should learn what "Crap" means..Go on and report to techno, I did nothing wrong there..
LOL you a geek? Seriously dude, wait let me explain the whole thing you got there..you have many misconceptions, its not being a noob thats wrong, drawing misconceptions and false statements make it wrong.

It does give a boost, but you guys dont mean what boost is, it kills the background processes hence giving a boost, but the processes need to run in background at all times, hence they will open again automatically, you close them, then open, its like a cycle, will it increase any battery saving or performance? Its common sense..

By app config,i mean the setting of the app.for example, enabling real time scanner on a antivirus could have a negative effect on performance.such settings can be tweaked inside the app itself.

Linux doesnt have any viruses(aside from spywares which steal your personal info) like windows..also, its almost impossible to create a virus on android..using avg or any antivirus is waste of ram+battery since the play store applications wont have any viruses in it, unless you download apks from unknown sources, an antivirus is not required. BTW,on my experimentation, avg antivirus with real time scanning uses more battery than a launcher or anything (Dont draw conclusions that its just 5 MB, it needs to run 24x7, needs to verify every site you browse, need to scan sd card every time it mounts up, so it takes more battery than a launcher or a refreshing home widget takes)

Get the following apps for root to speed up your phone
1)Autokiller memory optimizer
2)Game booster
I dont think they are available on play store,so get them as apks!

Same as the first case, your battery life, performance and everything will decrease, these apps dont do your device any good

Dude, you got any proof for this?
Stock ROM is way better than custom ROM, custom ROMs are just smooth to use thats it, battery backup, gaming, multi tasking, everything is a lot better
than custom ROMs. Go check antutu benchmarks and no custom ROM can touch stock ROMs benchmarks, now that makes some sense isnt it?
Guys u say that avg is best antivirus on speed . I use kaspersky. Is that OK or how compared to avg?

Ok guys, i installed ICS 4.0.4 from the Sony site then later removed all the unwanted bloatwares....
Installed LINK2SD and now i got 340 mb free internal storage..
But when it comes to playing games, it lags alottttt. I used task killer, history cleaner all of it still no use. Games lag. Temple run lags the most... I tried swapper but i dont think it helped either (or maybe i did the steps wrong)
How do i make my phone fast?
ics will lag
SUGGESTIONS
1. go to settings and force stop each application manually(don't use any task killer)!!!
2. then go to cached memory(press the menu button) and force stop every application....
3. IF using any custom kernel then try to overclock at a higher freq..(be careful!!overclocking is dangerous)
**ICS rom can run smoothly(NON GAMING) on your device but due to low amount of ram it can't play every application without lag:crying:
**FOR GAMING ON YOUR DEVICE I WILL SUGGEST YOU TO INSTALL GB>>:good:

Dude, flash Xperia Pureness ROM v13 and Sega kernel v9 (with WiFi modules) and you will get the best gaming performance on ICS. Ever!

No problem with games on ICS.
Backup your imprtant data. Repair with pc companion. Enjoy a faster device.
Ps. Dont use pc companion if unlocked bootloader.
I did this first time ICS went out and i have no lagg, most games are smooth
Remember to set both animationsettings to 0.5x feels smoother

mmmm mmm let me try n c :fingers-crossed:
instal v2 superscript or install a good rom like ultimate hd o jjhybrid
Hello to everyone, i have installed a custom rom for my Xperia Play with Locked Bootloader, the Custom Rom is NXT 1.3 and its performance in games was excellent newly installed, but when i started to install my apps or restore my apps the performance felt. So i thought that was ocurred cause was filling up the internal memory, so I put most of the applications on the SD card and some go to the ROM, but the performance doesn't improve as well, i read and a i have try different things like install Ram Manager Pro to free more RAM in games, to Use Task killer for Tasks in Ejecution and i dont see an considerable change in its performance. So Can i do for play more smooth?
The another thing is the NXT 1.3 have Busybox and support for scripts Init.d but i try to use an option for swap but maybe my stock kernel dont support it and another option for max size aplication's data in Ram Manager Pro ask me for busybox as if i didnt installed it, and i don't know why.
Thank yo
PD: Sorry for my poor English cause my native language is Spanish. XD
you need to overclock your rom.
here is the link for download No-frills CPU Control (i use this one): https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wOSwiaXQuc2luZW8uYW5kcm9pZC5ub0ZyaWxsc0NQVSJd
After download that overclock it to: Max - 1,709 Ghz | Min - 249 Mhz | Governor - smartassV2 | I/Oscheduler - sio

i use doomlord kernel.
A Question
But if i have locked bootloader and by that stock kernel i cant to overclock cause i cant change kernel. is there another option for improve the game experience with the NXT 1.3 Rom or another???
I know this might not help but could you tell me how good heavy 3d gaming was when you first installed the ROM. Did you play games like GTA:VC/GTA 3/Modern Combat 3/4 / Batman Dark Knight Rises etc without NO LAG or with minimal lag? Im on dixperia 2 and out of the 3 ROMs ive been on, its provided me with the good performance although it does slightly lag when doing heavy 3d gaming...
Nxt Light 1.3
I was experiencing the same issue. I am using the light version of the custom ROM, and it was blazing fast upon installation. Now that all of my games are installed, it is slightly slower than it was before, not very noticable though. If it helps, before playing a game, I use Es Task Manager to clear up about 200mb of memory so more is available for the games. My bootloader is locked as well. I wish there was a stable ICS on the Xperia Play. The ICS user interface, in my opinion, is much smoother than gingerbread.
Well i played games as Nova 3, Modern Combat 3, Pes 2012, Fifa 12, Asphalt 7 and i felt the rom really smooth but later when i had all my apps restored and time after working with the rom, definitely the was slower than rom newsly installed, now i have lag in all games :S. I have Advance task killer installed and when i'm going to play i free memory with the task killer, i used chainfire with Qualcomm and i free cache memory, but i never have 200 Mb free only when i reboot. Cause the services are restarted and the Ram memory is fill up really fast and i dont know why and what i can do :S
Dont use any task killer!!! This has been discuss throughout XDA in any android dev. All custom rom hav init.d support & they hav thier own set of minfrees'. Using task killer/manager will conflict with all the roms' tweak. Capish!!!

Many task managers are there just to run ads, they can eat up your battery, the programs will try to load in the free ram, it will kill it and over and over.
Install LBE (in my signature), it have the feature to prevent user and system programs from autostarting, although there might be other lighter apps that does this. Leave the ram management to android, just clear the ram before you launch a game.
You could try and watch what programs use up the most ram and see if you can replace it worth lighter apps. Launchers and widgets tends to, especially weather ones. I use holo launcher with light widgets only.

Thank you man, but i have another question if i have Ram Manager Pro running for "Harder Gamming" it is going a trouble with the NXT rom? cause that to free RAM too but i have lag too. The Task killer i used only for free ram before i play, or maybe can you tell me how can i do for boost my gamming experience on NXT rom in my XP with locked bootloader. Thank you people for your support!

Thank you, can you tell me what apps can i use for improve the gamming experience in XP or maybe boost the XP with NXT rom cause i have almost 20 apps and i have 100 mb free on Internal Memory, the Rom Memory with 35 Mb free, but the RAM fill up fast and i only use the defalult launcher of NXT Rom with Static Theme and a few widgets like Timescape, Photos/Videos, Searchbox and Music. But i feel the rom less smooth than newlsy installed, Thank you for answering!!!
Dont do anything. Just use it as is. If it gets laggy, reboot, wipe cache/dalvik-cache. Solve. Custom rom hav init.d support. That alone is enough to giv u the perf u need. Any other ram management app will only eat ur intrnal mem & ram at the same time. Just find some init.d & build.prop tweak all over XDA. Its impossible to "NOT" find any. Cheerio.

Another question my friend what app can i used for cache/dalvik cache (For no reboot all time XD) and i can't use swapping on Stock Kernel? cause i cant in my XP with NXT ROM with locked bootloader. Thank you!!!
U can use swap if u need'em. As for cache/dalvik-cache, there's an init.d tweak for it. U just gotta find it. I think dixperia 2 hav'em. Did u tried that rom before?? If dont, mybe u should giv it a try. If not try finding them tweaks.

I've tried to install a swapper but when i verify if it is running on memory use the swap space are in 0 like if i didnt install the swapper or if it isn't running, what can i do? The another question is this:
I found a tweaks collection and i want to try that but i dont know if that could generate conflict with the tweaks of the NXT ROM have with it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456777
Somebody said games are better installed in internal memory than SD Card, that is right? by the way what configuration or tweaks or apps you used for games like Nova 3, Asphalt 7 or Street Fighter IV? Thank you for answering!!!!
Remember i have locked bootloader and by that stock kernel :S.
