Derp i figured it out now, i got the games i wanted to work.
sorry for the dumb questions lol

I've heard most people have better luck using Gederom to play certain games that would otherwise be unavailable for the kindle.

Sure, stock is the best since all games running on it. ICS from gede also not bad, my meaning the games which runing on it just play smooth than on stock ROM but some GAMELOFT games crashed, Modern Combat 3 play very well, better than on stock.

Do you know if there is a difference between gede having the Galaxy Nexus as the build.prop compared to say like Hashcode's build.prop saying Kindle Fire?
If there is a difference then im so going to gedes rom

I should recommend you this ICS rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619550
Why is it better than any other rom for gaming?
Well first of all I am using it myself. Don't have any problems.
Second, as you can see, there is a line in the thread:
Modified build.prop
Most Gameloft games working
Decreased powerconsumption
Gameloft games usually don't run on Kindle Fire. With that rom they do. I installed and played my self Real football 2012. Works like a charm!
And the last thing is that you can remove the status bar while playing or watching videos! Full screen enjoyment at its best. If you`ll install this rom, just hold the power button for like sec or 2, a window will pop up and on the down side you`ll see show/hide status bar.
I hope this helps you, since I use it myself
Also: If you haven't rooted/rotted a while ago update everything with this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399889
You will have latest root, FireFireFire 1.4 and TWRP installed. This way it will be easier to do stuff.
If any questions: PM me, will be glad to help!
Good luck!
EDIT: If you want also use the Hashcode's kernel. Kinda like it more than ged preintstalled kernel

Problem with some gameloft games on ICS/JB

Many of Gameloft games closes on ICS/JB roms,,mostly due to some problem in multitouch..i found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443949 where some tweaks have been done to the zoom to make the games working.can these be done to the epic too??

What games?
I have quite a few running on my Epic with CM9 RC2 with no issues, such as Asphalt 7, Asphalt 6, UNO, and N.O.V.A. 2 - Near Orbit…
I did not do any special configuration to get them to work.
side note: I DID add the info from THIS THREAD to the end of my build.prop, but that was to help with the battery life

Maybe a bit off the subject, but I had GTAIII on my HTC EVO4G (unrooted) and I loved it.
Now, I have the Epic 4G (rooted) and I have the game purchased on the market but of course it isnt compatible.
So, I notice some people doo have it on their Epic, I'm wondering how you get it to work ?

I run GTA3 on my Epic all the time, luv'n the save game with a Tank!
I do tone down the details and OC a bit, but it does startup and run with no issue.
Also run Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation and Backstab with no issues
In general, I have no issues with Gameloft games, so I would guess this is just an issue with games Gameloft has not bothered to update for ICS, which kinda sucks for those that paid for them.

That is so weird that it works now because I've tried awhile back and it didn't work, it'd give me a black screen after opening it. But I checked out that thread which helped a ton, and I got it installed and working! 100% .. not one problem.. yet haha.
Ahh, just like PS2 lol, lovin' it! I just found the GTA||| v1.2 apk and downloaded the SD data once (which I've read you may have to d/l it twice) and once it was done it opened just fine and has been working great ever since.
Thank you DCRocks :good:

1) Watch where you're posting. I know there might not be a separate forum for Micromax A89 (and there will not be!) but anyway one can always go to Android General/Apps and similar sections for this kind of problems.
2) As for what you mentioned, yes I'm experiencing the same with an older version of Asphalt 6, only that it exits ONLY WHEN I do a multi-touch action. The problem exists across Android 4.x. I don't care about that game so I deleted it for all my Android 4.x ROMs. Best bet for you is to see if the game you're playing has any recent upgrade. But then again, if you happen to be playing Asphalt 5 or even older games... Time to move on to better games and a better phone!

Yongzh's emulators lag in ICS

Hello. Is anyone else having issues with Yongzh's emulators (snesoid, gameboid...) when running them in ICS?
I get slightly poor performance and sound issues that don't manifest themselves when using Gingerbread. The same happens in Android 4.0 and 4.0.4. I've tried different ROMs too and I even tried overclocking the CPU to 1.5 GHz. Nothing helps.
I'm looking either for a fix or for some nice alternatives (some other emulators work nicely, but they're not as good).
What are you using since switching to ICS?

No kidding. That's one of the reasons the ICS update was dropped, it killed performance.

So if I read this post correctly, I guess its answering my other thread.. that I guess Yongzh's emulators are no good anymore and we should buy a new emulator off the market?

I don't know about not being good, they're still my favorite, but they perform badly in ICS for some reason and they're actually one of the main reasons I can't decide whether I want ICS or GB.

Glad I came across this thread tho.. didnt even know they had issues in ICS.. Maybe I will have to buy a newer version emulator, unless anyone knows if he is still updating for ics on slideme wasnt it?

Hey, I'd like to know if this is ROM specific. Perhaps the emulators might work smoothly in some ROMs that I haven't tried. Please post your experiences. I'd mostly like to hear about CM9 (I haven't tried it yet).

I tried Tiger Arcade and Tiger Genesis and they both work like a charm in ICS. Consider this emulators as an option.

Hey mate

your issue really is not with a specific rom but with a specific game, what i can advise you is to try different set ups, different governors, try with andreno boosters, or maybe try with gaming mode with boost my xperia app, its really hard to advise a rom for you my friend since i think your main goal is to optimized a game which is NFS. but hopefully trying out my suggestions could help you

I'm using AuroraPlay and feeling satisfied with it. It's fast, lightweight and the performance is great. However, don't expect to run heavy games without lags. You can't force a 2-year old android phone to play modern heavy graphical games

[Q] Strange dual touch issue

Hello. I'm new on this forum so please don't attack me for this post.
I am a big fan of classic JRPG-s and i enjoy playing them on my HTC Desire.
The problem is that with every custom rom that has ICS or JB with which i tried to run any GBA emulator like Gameboid i have a huge problem.
The emulator works flawlessly except one big issue that i didn't have on my stock Froyo 2.2 rom or Cyanogenmod 7 2.3 rom. Whenever i press my display on two different places the emulator restarts or makes a quick load from last quick save state that i had and it makes some games unplayable. Does anyone knows what causes this or how to cure it. Can it have anything to do with kernel maybe?
I'm currently using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070704 ROM.
Btw i tried 3 maybe 4 emulators like gameboid and My boy and they all have the exactly same issue. Other games that use dual touch from market work normally.
I tried searching but i didn't find anything that could help me with the issue.
Any kind of help would be kindly appreciated.
