[Q] Will this run a PSX emulator?

With a decent frame rate?
I assume it will run GameBoid Advance perfectly too? (My Hero does, but a bit laggy sometimes)

Yes.
I tried Policenauts on it and it started perfect. Too bad it doesn't get past the title screen.

Really? Did you just try the one game?

This phone has better specs then the N1 and the N1 had no issues playing FF7

YOU SHOULD OF SAID SOMETHING TO ME BRO NOW I FEEL LIKE A ****
also are these kind of topics even allowed? I'm p. sure that you can't even download the playstation bios legally yet right?

So far I have tried:
Driver 2 - Works ok, framerate is low but do able.
Grand Theft Auto 2 - Works great.
Tekken 3 - Frame rate is low, its like fighting in slowmo.
Tenchu, Stealth Assassins - Works ok. not played for long as nagivating is kinda hard.
I reckon when you overclock your phone it should be better,right.
I used PSX4DROID on my Desire Z. (original)

[Q] How good is the A100 for Gaming?

Howdy all
Long time forum lurker here, never bothered of making an account.
But now I need to ask this, how good is the A100 for gaming? I can buy one really soon but I was reading reviews and apparently in the press release it is described as a "mom's" tablet.
The dual core and NVidia Tegra 250 + Small screen looks really good and I figured it should run games fine but I want people who own this tablet to let me know first how good it is. My main usage will be films and games, and I mean real games ie GTAIII, gangstar Rio, Asphalt, Modern Combat, ect.
Thank you all for your time and I wish you a good day!
- Noops.

I'm playing Ashpalt 6, Riptide GT, Cut the rope, Let's Golf 3, Road Warior.All of them running fine without glitches or lag.
Although Asphalt is not listed in the market like compatible with the device .
The device itself have some bug with the touchscreen sometimes, search this forum and you will find for what i'm talking about.I see it too but very rarely and only when typing.
For the movies 720p resolution is playable and is good looking on the device.The battery life is almost 4 hours without stop playing .Some people say that is a weak point but ... it's up to you to decide.

I agree, it can game just fine. I have not played Gta though. One Problem is a bunch of games aren't listed in the market, so you have to find the apk online and load it up. 720p runs awesome too.

Editing the build.prop to that of the A500 should make it work (and let it show up in the market).

i used this build.prop
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554259
and flexreaper rom but the game does not appear =(

All of the games that are actually compatible with it seem to run very well on it. Gameloft is finally putting some support on for this device; they have 15 games available for it now.
The hardware supports everything I've run on it well. When I think of a "Mom's tablet" I think Kindle Fire. This one is far more capable.

No problems then with sending the apks to your tab from phone? I thought about just using titanium and hoping that restores market links for updates

Gameloft has Ashalt 6 listed as compatible with the a100. I bought it from them back in January.

How can it be?
I managed to see asphalt changing the build.prop and i installed it. When the game tries to download the resources the first time it says the device is not compatible. This message comes up with both a500 and a100 build.prop.
So now what? (Is it possible this game is compatible with a100 depending on country? I know this is dumb but I can't see any other reason at this point)

Haven't tried the others, but Most Wanted certainly works just fine. Had a hell of a time getting it to download (it all of a sudden did, after leaving it alone for a while).

Need for Speed works flawless on mine. Have not tried others.

I can get Nova Multiplayer to work fine, but not the single player. Quite annoying.

I can't get Heroes or Order and chaos or Wild Blood to work correctly. Wild Blood lacks lots of graphics and Heroes crashes on the tutorial without explanation. Anyone have some thoughts?

TomTom doesn't work, but that isn't a game. Some drawing apps don't work yet either (all from the Hello ColorPencil variety), but I'm sure they will be fixed and aren't games.

The Simpsons tapped out has so much lag that I can't play it with this tablet, yet there is no problem when I play the same game on the first note 10.1, I wish I knew what the issue is, maybe it's the 4.3 problem ?.??..

I found it to be very frustrating as well. Turning "power saver" off seems to have little effects as well. I'm thinking that there just isn't good support for the tablet as of yet, it's only two weeks old.

What version of the note are you using? Wifi or lte edition ( exynos or snapdragon)
Could everyone write up what version of the note you're having issues with, that way we might be able to find a patern. I.e what SoC is more stable, reliable.

Basing on similar Note 3 the Snapdragon 800 version has better app compatibility along with better performance.

This is so frustrating. I'm pretty annoyed that I purchased an expensive tablet, and it can't run popular apps/games due to it's processor. Are there any advantages to having the 600?

I'm assuming you meant the 800 snapdragon?
It's faster, a tad more stable ( as far as I've been able to gather ) and seems to have broader support within games/ apps / development.
In essence
Snapdragon better GPU
Exynos Better CPU

Sorry I meant the P600 which has the Exynos. I don't really see any benefit to having it. Sure it has "8" cores, but if it can't run things properly, why bother?

You guys are on drugs if you think the hardware isn't capable of running these games.
Just wait for the developers to update it won't be the end of the world.
-see most wanted and dead trigger 2 for reference, kthx.

I think it's more than capable. I'm worried about actual development more than anything. I think we'll see fewer roms/kernels, and less support for apps/games.

Yeah, we probably won't see roms or kernels thats true, i'm fine with that part as it defeats the purpose of this device.
As far as support from games it will be okay since these devices are selling fairly well (Note 10.1 & morso Note 3).

Asphalt 8 Runs like crap no high settings available
Hey guys,
Its strange to me that Dead Trigger 2, and Need 4 Speed Most Wanted look amazing and run flawless yet Asphalt 8 looks horrible, has terrible framrates, and does not allow you to enable graphics higher than low on this tablet. Hope the devs can update this game so I can enjoy.

I haven't been getting terrible frame rates, granted it doesn't look amazing, but it's not at all bad. Have you turned power saving off?

Sorry to dredge up an old thread but I just got the 2014 edition yesterday and I'm finding this game almost unbearable. But here's the weird part, previously I had the original Note 10.1 and it played fine, just like you say. When I got the new one I wiped the old one to give it to my wife. Now the old one lags terribly too.
This is really frustrating, but at the same time gives me some hope. It ran fine on the old one until I did the factory reset. So that tells me there might be a setting somewhere that can fix this issue.
Of course, this thread is so old you guys might have already solved the issue. If so, please post how you fixed it.

Still an issue. I've tried a number of things - factory reset, CleamROM, standing on my head, starting a new game, etc. Can't get decent performance out of my favourite game! This sucks!
Maybe I should try to open a support ticket with Samsung - wonder if they'd even respond.

lg g3 lag problem

hello guys ....yesterday i bought lg g3 32/3 edition ....and it worked all good and performes without lag at home screen >>>so today i got asphalt 8 from my brother's galaxy s4 and it worked >>>but it has alot of lag slutters .....it lagged even on very low quality i get the same lag ...idk why ...then i got amazing spider man 2 and modern combat 5 (modded apk) and it lags alot even thoughe all those games dont lag on galaxy note 2 which has alot weaker proccessor >>>>so anyone knows wut wrong with the device ....is this happened cause i didnt download from play store ....or is it because the quad hd res ????the phone is on warranty >>should i get it to warranty .....i dont care much about big size games ...but iam afraid that the phone is bricked ......another thing that i tried to start a race on both devices at both times (my lg and galaxy s4 )and the race began on galaxy s4 3 seconds earlier from my phone...
another problem is that the obb files i put them inside android/obb got lost after i reboot the device ..idk why ?the first time this happened i did a factory reset (because the obb files didnt get removed ...they disapperead ...and the storage remains as if they were exists ....(when i open storage ...misc ....i found out that system data uses 14.9 gb of the storage )) i hope anyone can help ....i need to know if i should replace the phone on warranty
ill be thankful
and sorry for the very baad english

There is nothing wrong with your phone. A bricked phone cannot boot, you aren't even close to that. The obb files probably have the wrong permissions set. As for warranty, again there is nothing wrong with your device. Games are not optimized with the larger screen is most likely the cause

so the phone sux at gaming?
u mean that there is nothing wrong with the phone as it performes sux at gaming ....so wut should i do ...i saw guys on youtube plays asphalt at maximum graphics without lag ....why cant i then

That's the performance you get from the G3. For a QHD screen you need a more powerful processor like the 805 for gaming.

so
So guys ....no soultion ? But at least my phone isnt misfunctioning but at least there is something i can do

easy solution; if you are within the return period, then exchange it for a different phone

[Q] lags and stutters while gaming in zenfone 2 ze551 4gb

i recently bought Asus zenfone 2 ze551ml 4gb variant but i was very disappointing with its performance. i got the phone and it showed me system update 2.19.40 so i updated it and then installed a few games like asphalt 8, nova, mc5, etc. which i though this device would be able to handle pretty well. but to my surprise the these games didn't performed smooth...there weren't any lags but stutters in almost all the games. now i had seen many videos of gaming performance before buying this phone and everywhere it performed up to the mark. now i heard some where that the latest update is causing this. is this true?
is there a solution to this problem?

The version you are referring to is not the latest update... Asus provided some graphic optimization in some update (i cant recall which update it was) So update your phone to the latest firmware (2.19.40.22) and then check... I am on latest firmware and i have mc4, mc5, nova and they all play fine...smooth no lags no stutters or glitches

thank you for the reply sir. yes, i checked, i am on the same firmware as you. the main issue is with asphalt 8. nova and mc5 are still ok, even riptide gp 2 has the same unsmooth game play...there is no lag but it looks like there are heavy frame drops. can you check it with asphalt 8. i am getting an fps of 28 (checked it with gamebench).

Yes, I played mc5 and asphalt 8 and also experienced micro stutter on the 551ml with the newest firmware. Gameplays looked alot smoother on youtube videos.
I tried moving the games to internal memory, but same problem.

But really, can this be a hardware problem?

Exactly, even i am worried if its an hardware issue. Though i got a score of 47k on antutu so i doubt it is. Games like overkill 3 laG like hell. I am worried. Should i get my lhone replaced or what? Can anyone test on gamebench for fps of asphalt 8 who has it running smooth plz. Thank you.

I just downloaded reptide gp 2 and it's running smooth for now. I'll test the fps using gamebench in a bit.
Can't get gamebench to work. Sorry. :/

No problem. Thanks a lot for the reply though. Do let me know if it works.

You may have seen this forum already, but nevertheless..http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=8531..
I got the zf2 about a week ago, so I'm unable to compare it to the performance before the latest updates.

Thanks for the reply, but those are steps I took before playing each game, and i always clear my cache after each firmware update. So I do not believe any of those steps offered a viable solution.
Edit-- These are the results of Asphalt 8. Phone was off charger, and in performance mode. Cache was also cleared in recovery. Also, in the xda review of the zf2, he said he got 45 fps.

Thanks manman but I got it to work, I had multiple devices connected to adb.

Reptide gp 2 has huge fps drops.(20-30 fps).
I tried overkill 3, it was unplayable.
Can someone please check the fps on their device ? It would really help.
I do not believe it is a hardware problem, because i'm getting a decent score on antutu.
