App for measuring real world performance released - Beta - About xda-developers.com

Hello XDA Members,
Have you ever wondered how fast a game runs on an Android device? We have an app that can tell you that using a easy to understand rating system!
And all of this without root **NO ROOT REQUIRED**
We are looking for Android enthusiasts to try this app out and give us feedback.
1 - What is the overall performance of a 3D game? What is the FPS(Frames per second) measure?
2 - How much battery is consumed for a gaming session? How many hours of gameplay can I get when playing my favourite game?
3 - How much CPU does the app/game use? How many CPU cores are being used by the device when playing the game?
4 - What is the GPU Utilization of the game? We are the first app to measure GPU Utilization for devices that have either Qualcomm Adreno GPUs or Imagination Power VR GPUs.
5- Do you want to know when your frame rate drops, what was being rendered? The app collects screen shots for co-relating performance drops.
We are unable to post the link for the download here. If you send us a mail then we can send you the link
[email protected]
Prerequisites to install:
- The App has a native service that needs to be started. So a ADB Connection is required to the device.

[App] FPS Meter - Measure the smoothness of project butter & Games ;)

Just came across this app, was so desperate to have something similar for very long since ics.
FPS meter - play store link[App on Christmas discount sale for .99$)
This tool would be very handy in measuring how smooth a rom is. :good::good:
For gamers it would be very handy to check fps of games ... similar to fraps in pc (hope u people know fraps )
Disclaimer :
dunno if this will work with every available 2d/3d games, better read the feedback in store for reviews.
Case study:
with ll5 rom and stock kernel
* as we have project butter i can see a cap at 60 fps (vsync is there in project butter).
* while scrolling through some apps the fps fluctuates around 50 to 60 , afaik the fluctuation should not be there with project butter as it uses triple buffering along with vsync to maintain a constant 60 fps.
* enabling power saving mode in samsung roms caps the fps at 40.
wondering how much force gpu rendering will have an effect on project butter
>apps that maintain 60fps constant when scrolling
* stock touchwiz launcher
>apps that fluctuates fps in scrolling
* stock gallery
.
rest to be tested
ill add an expanded comparison of few apps if there is a difference between stock kernel and custom kernel (especially with gpu overclocked )
lets talk and share about fps in games along with fps in various apps here
Awesome share. Thanks button preseed :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-I9300
Cool idea
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Interesting I think I'm leaving this on just for the sake of knowing. You can see the fps drops causing the jerky scrolling in tapatalk. The fps drops with the load towards a bare minimum until touched.

Noticed frames are maxed at 40 when power save cpu enabled.

Purchased. Great app.

Recommended System Requirements:
CPU Quad-Core 1.6+ or Dual-core 1.5+GHz, equivalent or better.
GPU Adreno 220, Nvidia Tegra2/3, equivalent or better.
1GB, 512. My Config asks for a min or 256MB & shouldn't be run on a device with less than this.
8GB disk space
1)Install DosBox Turbo. Go into Config/DosBoxSettings/ and make sure Manual mode is selected. You will need to restart the app for it to take effect.
2)Download and extrat the Half Life for Android folder.
3)Copy and paste the two files (HL.img & dosbox.conf) into the internal memory or sdcard on your device.
4)Start DosBox Turbo and enjoy Half Life.
Notes:
-You can enable GPU Rendering by go to settings/Screen and Rotation Settings/GPU Rendering(Check)
-You can improve the scale quality by going to settings/Screen and Rotation wettings/Scale Quality/HQ Scale(Slower)
-Galaxy Notes users may want to disable "Power Saving" mode to improve performance.

Sweeeeet! Using your guide, I got it working on my Nexus 7. I did make one change, I set cycles = max and that seems to have make the audio much much better, the tradeoff being that the framerate is a bit slower.

Hey, glad you got it working! The auto setting will give you the best sound quality but will cost you some performance.
Try doing this

Half-Life on Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 with Stock Rooted 4.1.2 Firmware
Good work, but this barely passes for even mildly playable. Why? 1-10 fps is nothing but a big pile of steaming bs. I mean, why waste time on this crap when you can play better native games.
Also, I think we should all be thankful to the id software, because if they had not released their game engine as free-source, the guy called n0n3m or something like that could have never developed the DIII4A app. Its fantastic, I got a rock steady 25-30 fps without fail. Also, I played Quake 1,2,and 3 along with RTCW(Return to Castle Wolfenstien) with HD enabled 1080p screen size without problems.
As far as HL is concerned, this game cannot be enjoyed at the framerate the DOSbox turbo is giving. Quite frankly,its pathetic and one should not even try to waste time as I did, because the game is a classic and can be only be enjoyed with full audio. Oh, and did I forget to mention the fact that there is no audio in the gameplay?
My Verdict: This project has a rock solid future as just being able to even get to the in-game screen was like drinking the sweet morning dew from the leaf blades of lemon grass, but quite frankly, it has a long way to go to even come under the category of playable.
: TECHNICAL CONCLUSION :
1) PLAYABLE : Yes, goes in game and is playable as long as you dont mind the bs framerate.
2) FRAME RATE : 1 -10 on a QUAD-CORE PROCESSOR WITH QUAD-CORE GPU
3) AUDIO : No
4) GLITCHES : Yes, Multiple, with wierd graphics here and there.
5) WORTH TRYING : Hell yeah, if you are a dev and wanna contribute to make it better, or just a casual tester or a user. Definitely worth a shot.
Wow...this community is great. I swear...people are blowing me away with these kind of mods. Good stuff sir!
HELP!!!!
This worked for the first time but after i tried to load it again it said has performed an illegal operation and must be shutdown!
I tried everything but it wont boot

FPS in games

Hey,
I have found this video on YT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrJM5OVpmMI .
He wrote: "Cpu is not overclocked. I have rooted phone."
And I'm confused ;\ why this guy a way better fps in this games? Shadowgun Dead Zone in UNPLAYABLE on my htc one v. In Trial Extreme 3 I have about 33% less FPS :\
btw. I have cleared cache\ram. I have 150mb of free ram.
I have found a work around method so I'll write it down, maybe it will be useful for someone:
I dunno why this guy has so good fps on a 'standard' device but I have found a good way to increase fps in games:
If you have CyanogenMod go to settings and at the bottom you will have 'performance' option; inside you can find 'processor', inside maximum something. - go there and change 1024MHz to 1400MHz. Also change 2nd option from ondemand to SMARTASSV2. That will gives you better performance when processor will need it, like in games. In fact it gives about 30% more fps without any serious consequences. (No, no serious battery draining or crashing or anything).

[APP]Fps meter (now free)

Hi I want to share this great app that show you how many fps you have
It's usefull when tunning your kernel setting so you can see if a game run at a higher frame rate

app is no longer there :c

Question OnePlus capping game fps to 55

OnePlus capping game fps to 55, reducing cpu and gpu clockspeed to the lowest possible whenever battery temps are close to 40°c or above. So users who have a habit of playing games at 90-120fps can face this problem. For now the only solution is to uninstall system battery app, root device and use some kernel manager app. Here i have attached few screenshots with an app call Scene 6 to show how badly it drops. So the only hope OnePlus users have is to have a custom rom where we can get rid of these issues
apex , call of duty , and co are not games that need mega fat clocks to run at 60fps (most games that run at 120fps can only be played at 120fps with low graphics settings anyway) you better use scene app check it out whether the scene app with fas is not your problem. or if your environment is too warm
And ps
This is not normal cod mobil he play it with modding like fps unkock for playing it with 120fps on max Graphics setting plus scene in performance profile plus vivo thermal disabler
