GPU Overclock doubt - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey there guys,
I'm currently on latest PA and mpokang. My question is how does GPU overclocking help? I read about a few stuff on Google. It says it improves our graphics, ok, but I didn't notice any change in my graphics while playing, Fifa 14 suppose. Just my phone heats up pretty fast.
Help maybe?

It gives your phone more power in graphic intensive tasks. It means you'll have more FPS in games for example which will make game run smoother

[Q] Best for Gaming?

What is the best Rom/Kernel for playing 3d games? Im trying to play emulators and all of them are really slow, but I'm sure theres a way to speed things up a bit.
And YES I DID SEARCH THE THREAD BEFORE POSTING :0
CM7 is nice for gaming. But if its just slow, go into your governor settings and ramp up your cpu usage just a bit.
Been using Salvage-Mod 1.1 for gaming. Works great for me : )

Gangstar Rio Question

hi guys. Im using ICS Beta with KA11 rom. I've overclocked to 1.4 ghz, and set gaming profile in ram manager. but when i was driving car, the games lagging a very. and I Can't get working gamepad. Gamepad/Touchpad didn't work. Should I back to stock ?
The games not lagging, it just runs at a low frame rate for some reason. As for the gamepad, I don't know.

I got a R800X 2.3.3 fully bloatware free and no programs running when i play this game and is very slow, to the point is not fun to play at all, its too bad because it looks as a good game if the framerate was good
Believe me, it's the game, not your phone.
Woow its good. But how can i fix this lag problem. And gamepad problem ?

I wish they released a patch or someone find a way to play at good speed, find weird that they optimized the controls for the play but not the running fps (my play gamepad works fine in this game) i just cant play because of the speed

[Q] SGH-I747M (Bell S3) Gaming LAG?

Is it normal for this device to lag when playing 3D games?
I understand that 3D games are quite resource intensive, but I expected better than this.
N.O.V.A 3 is almost unplayable, Modern Combat 3 suffers less lag than N.O.V.A but still a considerable amount, Mass Effect Infiltrator suffers huge lag spikes when multiple enemies are onscreen and even Monsters ate my Condo is lagging.
I am on stock touchwiz, not rooted. No custom kernel. Na-da.
Also, which may not have anything to do with this, the keyboard often lags in the messages (texting) app. Sometimes bad enough that I can watch the sentence finish itself. That's always fun, right?
Thanks in advanced to anyone who can give me any insight.

I know it will sound like a stupid question but can you make sure your power saving (from the statusbar widget) is not activated. I've notice lag on Nova Launcher while this was turned on even if I set the powersaving option not to affect CPU performance.

Thanks for a quick reply
And no, power saving mode is not on. I never activate this mode as every single task becomes extremely laggy D:
I would return this phone. This is no normal behavior. I played those game before rooting without a lag. I even downloaded torrent while playing without any lag. The phone heated up a little but hey it's a phone!

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking for; just some insight as to whether it's normal or not.
I'll look into whether I can get this sorted out. I've just gotta find the right way to get this covered by warranty or just pay a deductible for a new phone
Good thing I have an extended warranty!

[Q] how to fix Gaming Lag in games

Hi, i'm using the franco kernel r66 nightly with android revolution 10 rom 4.2.2, The newest one now. Oc'd to 1.5 ghz with 700mhz min and interactive governer and i'm experiencing lag in the game need for speed most wanted. I have no tasks open and it feels really really slow, 0.5x slower, like the timer in the top right counting up is choppy. How can i get the performance that youtube demos of this game on the gnex has? The videos on youtube, they're playing it perfectly but im not playing it perfectly.
I also have force gpu rendering on with android revolution hd
You are playing the game with all graphics unlocked AKA QuadCore quality smartphones
It happened because franco kernel overclocked the graphics to 512mhz, and the game thinks you have a awesome phone ( and you do!)
If you force it to go back to the original Nexus graphics, you'll want the nice graphics back, so my sugestion, is:
If you want to play the game, CPU - 1500mhz or 1600, and Governor: Performance (this is the key point)
You can also tweak other performance settings in the custom kernel part (in the franco kernel updater app), like finding what IO suits you best for the game.
With those tweaks, i run the game with full 30fps, except 1 or 2 tracks, in which there is a lot of water on the ground, but in those tracks it is completely playable still(23~27fps), but the game runs well in most tracks, with amazing refletions and shadows
Edit: Don't force GPU rendering
Wait, Wouldn't it make the game think i dont have the quad core phone if i use a trinity kernel 384mhz gpu? Then wouldn't that be fine?
Thankyou for the tip.
No idea, but it might work like that
Although in my opinion, i prefer the game with those graphics
I can withstand those 1 or 2 tracks
Thank you for everything, I flashed trinity and it worked, Honestly i dont see the difference but now its so much fun since it's playable now

Does Lag Free Gaming Really Exist?

Hi Guys, i missed my xperia play so i bought a new one, the scene has changed on here since i left it a year ago for the better, brilliant roms and kernels now!
However am i doing something wrong?
I've tried many kernels and rom combinations but im still experience lag in games (not as bad as a year ago though)
It annoys me as i will be enjoying a game then it will just lag really bad and i lose control of the dpad / touchpad for a few seconds.
Its not constant lag but enough to bug me!
I've tried LuPuS v12 480p and extremkernel R2 000p with the following roms:
Gin2jellybean
Aurora Play
XElite
Atomic
I cant get bane of speed to install (keep getting E: partition error? help?)
These are all GB roms will i have better success on Ice Cream Sanswhich?
i usually OC with 1.6ghz smartass v2 / sio (However i've tried all settings even under-clocked)
Any advice / help would be great
p.s.
Major annoyance is when i play Mario kart 64 on n64oid it freezes my phone no matter what kernel / rom / OC settings im on!!! v2.7 doesn't crash on mupen any ideas?
You should really try ICS roms. Pritty much stable and able to run even heavier games. Just keep in mind that in ICS roms it's everlasting battle in perfomance vs features. Use lupus ICS/GB 480p kernel.
Ofcorse, it depends what games/emulators you are playing, but i can say ICS is compatible with 95% of games (that i try).

Did u data reset before tryuing each rom? (use Tiyanium Backup to backup and resote apps exactly where they were!)

Edit
Imo best rom is stock debloted+RTmixManager/v6SuperXharger/Pizza_Box(not all jusr 1 of em)
Edit2
Sounds weird but keep ur oc to 1.2 GHz in games, just try thqt, nd dont use performancr govenor unless emulating
It is obviously personal preference - i have just spent the whole night testing roms.
Don't like the ICS roms they all seem too fiddly,
I finally settled on LuPuS v12 480p and Gin2jellybean 1.4ghz / smartassv2 / sio
UI is smooth and modern looking and most games run fast as! only getting the odd stutter during a game but only on some and its rare.
I have one major issue now which i dont know if its the rom or the kernel, but i'll pick 2 games its occurring on: Rage of the gladiator and Lara Croft both games are not playing videos in game?
The phone doesn't play any mp4 on the basic stock player, anyway i can fix this? (3rd party players do work but not for the in game videos)
Thanks in advance
why don't you try JB ROMS ..try this one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357756
always wipe data/cache/system/rom before installing a new ROM. hopefully this should fix your problem..

It was the kernel learnt the difference between full / ram (full contains video playback) im all happy now it doesnt have seemed to affect the games in anyway that i can notice anyway.
thanks for all your help and suggestions
I use performance for gaming as it keeps the frequency set. Smartass changes frequencies constantly and that could have some affect

On the lupus 480 kernel I get that too with the videos not playing. Asphalt 6 wontload the opening video but says it's unable to play it. Then it loads the game
