At least with me it was not compatible by default. I had to use CF3D.
Update: Also I can not confirm If CF3D really works since the game content download gets stuck before it even starts.

I finally got to download the resources. Don't ask how because I did nothing, just tried several times (lets say one a day for one week or so).
The thing is it is only working when I have internet connection, which I don't because I am currently abroad...
It's useless for me this game, at least until I get home.

FWIW: Says it's not compatible with my rooted Nook Color using CWM, at 100, 160, or 200 pixel density.

It's working fine on the s2.

I had it as com.ea.simcitydeluxe_na but I had to change it to com.ea.simcitydeluxe_row.
Works now.

I got the game to start up using cf3d and the powervr plug in as well a the powervr data directory.
Now I get memory heap errors when I try to build a power plant.
Had anyone been able to play the game?
What data directory and for cf3d plug in did you use?

Just a little bumpity bump. Doesn't anyone love Simcity and use a Galaxy S2?

Google really screwed with games
Why don't all games use open GL and why do we have to get a specific version for each terminal, that sucks!
Google shouldn't allow things such as Tegra only games, it's a really bad thing for Android.

How is it a bad thing for Android for game developers to be able to push the most (graphically and performance) for each specific model?
Sent from my GT-I9100

Games should be like those on PC: only one version and you apply the different settings according to your hardware.
On Android it's crazy, it's as if on PC, devellopers would have to release a different version of their games for each different type of graphic card or processor or memory and wouldn't use Direct X, that would be really stupid!
I really despise Tegra only games, if the phone isn't powerfull enough to run the game at full specs, just let the user lower the settings so we can still enjoy the game (much better than no game at all).

Scrolling smoothness

Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the OnePlus 3 under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Butter smooth to say the least! I never really experience any stutter.

The only place I've experienced stutter is in Google Inbox, when opening a message; from my understanding that's more Google's fault.

Got scrolling lag rarely only when browsing, not in any other app. This is browsers fault, so i don't count it as a minus.

Great
Never an issue with scrolling, whether running a stock/ rooted stock/ or a custom rom. Simply amazing.

I have this problem too, but it's really noticeable in Google Play store, like little jumps/stutters when i scroll keeping my finger on the screen, touching it (like moving the screen up or down, in "medium" speed)
Could you please check if this happens to you too? i'm worried i might have some touch issue

In other thread some users said that Nougat beta is way smoother, i hope that's the case =) i'll be waiting for OTA then
Thank you so much again for your time

I'm wondering if the touch latency issue of OP3/T might be related, i know it's not the same thing, not the direct cause, but it might have something to do with it
Thanks again

I got the same and noticed when i open the top menu in e.g. play store with two fingers and then scroll again it is smooth until i close the app again. It has something to do with a failure in vsync. But i didn't found a solution.

I experience lagginess on chrome and chrome like browsers like kiwi and brave when scrolling through Google search results! The lag is lesser on lighter browsers like Via. It's so weird. Does any one else experience this?
And I've some choppiness on Google maps.

App restarts rather than resume [PIE]

Hi, after upgrading to PIE, i get the above problem. Say i'm watching a video on youtube and i got a whatsapp notification and i go in to reply and once i go back to youtube, i find myself at the youtube starting page, not being able to resume it. is anyone having this issue too?

That's weird ?
I haven't this issue, maybe it's an app which is responsible for that. Go to the developer options and search for "memory" or "Running services". There you will find the apps which are running in the background and it will show you how much memory it need.
If you can't solve your problem a Hard-Reset might work. I think it's a software problem because my phone works very stable with Pie and without such memory problems.

Have you checked battery optimize and modify draw over apps etc settings?

I have the same damn problem with multitasking... Tried everything, went through all battery settings, developer's settings and such. Tried every option. Multitasking is simply impossible on Mi A2 Lite (Pie 9.0). Apps turns off instantly after I leave them. Optimization for each app is turned off, Adaptable battery turned off, Battery saver turned off, also. Nothing helps; So sad, and it seems there is no solution for this.

Xiaomi is famous for theirs memory management algorithms. They are too aggressive, leading to premature app killing.

Method to unlock 90fps on games which supports high refresh frame

Hi guys!
I understand some of the people who realised that games which support higher refresh, but OnePlus was capped to 60fps for massive games, this is ridiculous. Before I provide solutions to unlock 90fps, let me share some thoughts about how I discovered that games were capped to 60fps!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.razer.cortex&hl=en just provided new features to able shows FPS, but I discovered that while I playing Dead Trigger 2 with max settings, the phone shows 60fps. PUBG China version able to running with 90fps without stress!
Image below is Dead Trigger 2 which capped 60fps by OnePlus:

Below is PUBG China version:
So I suspected that OnePlus done something for it.
So I tried jOnePlus Tools [adb/root], and Force 90Hz:
And... volia! Full video link showing many games finally runs 90fps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIT0yBCPwis
If anyone doesn't trust the video above, you may try the app that I found to Force 90hz for your OnePlus device, witness it for yourself. I understand force 90hz on gaming will cause battery drain, but we have Warp Charge which still retains fast charging speed while gaming, so who cares?
I hope the OnePlus team developer can do something about frame limited issues on massive games.

Games list which supports high refresh rate: https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/09/15/android-games-phones-high-frame-rates-90-120fps/

All apps show 89-90fps. I play GTA SA and Razer show 89-90fps, but game have max 30fps.

That's because those games you tested are default at 30fps.

Become smoother and more responsive while gaming. For battery, getting more consumption.

This app suck. Cortex always show 90fps...

I know this is a old thread but is this still a issue on op7t? Also does this trick actually work or does it just force the screen to stay at 90hz but game still runs at 60?

This trick works, watch the video from OP.
For stay at 90Hz but game still runs at 60Hz, just change to Auto 90Hz (from jOnePlusTools) or set to 90Hz from Settings App, because that's phone's default settings.

Hi thanks for reply... Yeah I don't have the op7t I'm using the X2 Pro so can't use the app.... We have the same issue and was mainly curious to see if game updates or system updates sorted the issue.

Does you now is there any different from force 90Hz by using ADB command ?
Is this same as this... and what actually is show in phone Settings?
adb shell settings put global oneplus_screen_refresh_rate 0
Can you test both metods? Tnx

I was able to see the 'force 90hz' and 'refresh rate' option in the 'app' untill i updated to ob2 on my 7t.
Anyway fixes ?
nevermind, fixed it. i was using pixel 4 props and that's why couldn't see the option

Thankyou for the answers love to read the point of views from the different peoples here also

Question Throttling with Game Turbo

Hi team.
Is anyone experiencing overheating issues while gaming with Game Turbo on?
I got the phone throttle while playing Diablo and Call of Duty with the default in-game settings.
Tried several different Game Turbo configs but none of them makes any difference.
Tried resetting the phone, although it is new, with no luck...
Disabling Game Turbo solves the problem.
Reproduced the issue with 3DMark.
Disabling Game Turbo yields lower but stable results.

I don't mind the lower graphics but I like the in-game menu Game Turbo provides.
Stock MIUI 13.0.5, Android 12
Game Turbo (Security app) 6.2.3

I had overheating issue while recording the timelapse on the sun.
After 20 minutes of 30-minute timelapse phone stops with overheating message.
I didn't enable performance mode or Game Turbo mode at all.
I think that the phone will work well in normal conditions but if you push it will overheat due small size and not enough room for proper cooling.

have you tried disable joyose app?
Lot of conflict report but many people say it's the culprit.

I debloated my 12X few days ago using this guide - https://lucacesarano.medium.com/xiaomi-super-bloatware-list-2020-db38ace9e9e1

the phone doesn't overheat and throttle while playing without Game Turbo, despite its small size;
perhaps the sun heated up your phone additionally

Tried updating it instead to latest version - the heating problem persists.

Updated Game Turbo (Security App) to latest version.
Tried even the Chinese one.
The issue still persists.

Anyone knows a proven way to submit the issue to Xiaomi?
Did that via the Feedback app, but I am sceptic about it.

The phone is stock, default EU version. Just debloated. I am planning to unlock the bootloader and install Xiaomi.eu, but that will wait a little bit.
I didn't have any issues with debloating so I presume you will be fine. Of course, debloat the phone at your own risk.
I usually don't use the phone for gaming so I don't know what to do in that part.
I use DND and power save mode overnight, not that this will help you, but it might save a little battery time.
Also, I tried to play Diablo Immortal for a few hours and didn't experience any issues. The phone got warmer, but that's it.

de-bloated the phone - all apps from the suggested list were removed, including Joyose, although some were not even installed;
the good thing is that everything seems fine after the de-bloat;
the bad - my phone still throttles...
Security and Battery and performance apps updated and all data cleared;
rebooted;
Edit: I enabled the Perf Optimization option in Turbo (disabled by default), and hallelujah - no throttling

That is great to hear!

The issue re-appeared a couple of weeks after the initial fix...
No auto updates.
No Joyose app.
Disabling Game Turbo (with Battery and perf app data wipe) is the only fix so far...
Will update relevant apps and will post results soon.
