I've just installed the amaaazing GTA III ten-year anniversary edition on my Wildfire S. Everything loads, and I managed to find a decent HVGA version of the game data files.
Anyway, it's quite slow running at 600mhz on an unrooted stock rom. Anyway to speed it up a little? Is it because of RAM or CPU or what?
S-ON btw.
Dont think it will run it. All approved devices are dual core with pretty good graphics

Hmm, but I seem to be running it perfectly in terms of graphics. Sound, video everything works and is playable.
It just lags a lot when trying to move around. Like playing in slow motion.
Most likely would work on alquez's kernal.

Well, look at the bright side. You can predict enemy moves and shoot 'em easily.
I wouldn't know unless I installed it. Could just be processing power.
Hahaha, yeah would need some more processing power I guess.
Link to the game and files? Would like to try on CM7. 2 @ 800mhz
Edit: found the game.

No chance of running this on wildfire s guys, this game needs a lot of power.
Tried on my cm7.2.1 overclocked to 806mhz runs like crap, don't waste your time with the 500mb+ data download you'll just be disappointed.
Oh and your phone will heat up like the core of the sun.
The game is on the market, and a few other places but yes doesn't run well at all.
what's the size of apk you installed....
http://www.mediafire.com/?xk8bdqrrrd7yk76
Try this one, this is the ripped version of data pack from Andropalace.com
You can't use the files that the game downloads itself. Find the seperately ported HVGA files.
It does run nicely, it's just slow people.
on my WFS long time ago (1 week) when i was S-ON it run smoothly, people never lag... now, i have rooted WFS with CM7.2 @ 806MHz and it have 2FPS... hate beta CM7..
As much as i have used it....it runs fine on the stock rom without sound,but it lagged like hell on CM7(YES!!WITHOUT SOUND FILES!!)

Looks like the hardware acceleration doesn't work in CM7.

I hope that alquez add hardware acceleration in next stable release
I had installed it, and on CM7.2 with 806MHz it still runs very slow. There's probably no chance of it running well on this phone, and to be honest, the controls for it will suck anyway. I have my old PS2. I might buy the original again.
I also tryed this, but it's very slow, i just waste my time. :S
I found this cool parkour type addictive game, I enjoy it really much, but... is it just my phone or it lags? I'm running the latest version of 'Custom stock rom'. Can somebody try it?

I have the mini note 2 rom too, but sometimes it slows down, really slows down a lot. Like it's lagging, like the time is slow.
yeh i have "lags" as well in certain parts, but i believe its a feature , slowmotion
i had the same thing "Lag" sometimes, and its not a feature,
(You can actually buy this gadget that slows down time)
I played this on my S2 and experienced lags, on my Nexus 7, it runs fast and good...
Same here
Its the same on my S2 I think its the game no lags its in the part of the game its has to slow down but its stupid it makes the game to look like it lags
It's so annoying, you can't enjoy the game to the max with the 'lags' in it.
I've recently started playing this game and been annoyed by how it lags. I'm on a level where there's my guy, a friend and the bad guy and it lags ALL the time. Has anyone found a workaround for this?
Awesome Game
I really like the concept, as for lags it get gets harder on new levels
With the new update just change graphic sitting for less lag.

I have Neat Rom 4.3 (Jelly Bean) and i have lags also... the game graphics aren't anything so special that justifies this.... i believe that the game wasn't well programmed...

Are you having similar problems with other games? If no, then you're probably right. :cyclops:
If the lag is present for other games, it is possible that it's ROM or kernel related (governor, mali driver and etc).

Nop, Only this game. I have other game that doesn't feel so smooth, but it's justified, because it has heavy graphics: Real Racing 3. And even that game i can play it well.
Besides that, i can run all other games with no problem at all in my GS2. I can play NFS Most Wanted without problems, for example.

I see a lot of comments about how good p6 is.
No doubt its a good looking phone. well built.
Software performace is also good if u get latest update. Quick, smooth.
Sound quality is top notch.
On B118 cn performance is even better have i heard (i haven t try B118 ROM yet)
But i m a little disappointed with game performance. I m on B125, custom ROM.
I played FIFA14 and NFS on p6 and after only few minutes of playtime the phone is getting laggy.
So is this phone that good ?

so I understand that the P6 isn't made for heavy gaming (at least for now), and find it pretty normal seen the reduced thickness. I mean, you can't have everything, right?
but what about lighter games like ruzzle, or candy crush, angry birds or similar? can it run them smoothly?

i downloaded a lot of games with max.300-400 MB size and works perfectly with no problem.. for example a game that looks like a good graphic game and i played 100% workerd wonderful was "dead trigger2" but candy crash i have it too.. noo problem.. actualy what i love playing is Chicken Invaders ..

The gaming problem is actually random/inconsistent and not specific to heavy games. There are heavy games that work very well on p6, but on other hand there are those that don't. So its a luck. Part of the problem i think is the heat the processor makes that then automatically powers down to reduce heat, while other problem is that the GPU is not widely used and hence the game developers didn't optimize games for this. This optimization problem can happen even if you had the top range phone. On the firmware development side, we have seen the latest b118cn was said to have better game performance, so we will be seeing such gradual improved performance to some extent.
On the whole though, if someone plays heavy games whole day on their device, then P6 is not the phone for them, not just with processor, but also the battery. They should wait for p6s that has fixed the heat problem and used a game optimized gpu.

I think all those games u stated run very well.There is also some random heavy games that work fine on p6 like MC4 or Real racing 3
i guess it all comes down to your preferences or the reason why you have this phone.
I bought my p6 because of its design, cheap price. I mainly use this for browsing and emails. Therefore Im really satisfied with what I got.
I agree that game performance of P6 is not good. But still I am not disapointed at all.

There is no need to be upset.
It s not ur fault if p6 doesn t perform on some games.

But i think this phone has yet room for improvement.
well 1,5 quad core with 2 RAM should be good enough for some heavy games.

Maybe the right word should be NOT OPTIMIZED for SOME games. Just like what other people is saying. Some experience lags, some dont. On your case, you are lucky for having a high rate of games working Perfectly. On my case, its not. I had experience lags playing hungry shark and Deer Hunter. Just like what you said, its your experience, its different from mine.
and again, overall, this is a really solid phone.

So I have the 10 for about a week now. Awesome phone, but I really dislike the speakers and video camera
Speakers sucks with both boomsoud mods. Hope it's gets better with updates and Audio mods.

I haven't tested a lot of video, but I thought I read the video would be 60 fps at 1080p and 30 at 4k.
For me the biggest drawback so far has been the screen quality. The resolution is nice, but it has this weird shine effect that is bugging me. You can only see it when it's text on white, and it is more pronounced when you tilt slightly, but it is also there when you're looking straight on.
Didn't see it at first but now I can't look without seeing it and it's killing me.

Hmm I'm also experiencing alot of stutter in apps and even in settings (did several wipes, always the same). It's not that bad but it is definitely not 100% smooth. But nobody mentions it in the forums. You're the first one.
I'm comparing it to my M8, which is nexus-like smooth, with almost no stutter at all. The only app where 10 is smoother is chrome.
I think we have to wait till custom kernels pop up. I was hoping the stock experience would be 100% smooth like the nexus phones.

According to reviewers Galaxy S6 and S7 are also stutter-free. Main reason I returned my S7 is because it was so laggy. But I guess most people really don't care. Doing a little search on google I only see people who used a nexus phone complaining about stutters on devices like S6, S7, etc.
Btw I did a little test here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66729920&postcount=226
Odd: my S7 Edge is very fast and barely has any stutter etc which has surprised me. I was expecting the opposite go figure.

Really? Could you do a test with your s7 with the graphical bars option turned on from dev options.
Btw my S7 was indeed very fast, but just stuttery in chrome (with ads blocked) and apps like YouTube.

I noticed that by default Boost+ will "automatically clear memory in the background", which I had disabled since day one. Perhaps it causes stutter?

This is my result. In settings and youtube, the stutter is less often than yours (it happens), however Play Store is a lagging hell(sometimes worse than the screenshot below).
Not sure if it's a hardware fault or what.
As far as I know htc got their own cpu scheduling implementation, maybe that's the problem.

Yep it's definitely not stutter free. Once you've used a device where the bars stay below the line, these micro stutters are very noticeable.
I hope custom kernels gonna fix it.

Considering I couldn't find any reason that this phone will perform worse than the competition, with same SoC and same DDR4 memory, the only logical explanation is that htc have a stricter frequency control (persumbly GPU) for a better battery life.
Guys I need help with my G4, situation with gaming is kinda unbelievable... I'm running android 6.0, and most games can't hit over 20fps mark, practically gaming it's more of frustration than fun
Examples:
Dragons rise of berk - 15-16 fps
Real Racing 3 - 20-21 fps
Jurasic World - 18-19fps
FF lagacy - 25-26fps
And things gets more interesting, I have also G2 that makes on average 30% better fps on the same games. Did an Antutu test, G4 is way better than the same G2, huge difference in 3d test.
Checked the net for the issue and found on this site folks that have it but hadn't have in with the Lollipop before that. Please give me some pointers for a future actions, is it wise to try go back to 5.1 or maybe wait for the next update? Or anything at all, I'm open to all ideas as long as they don't cost me my warranty (these LGs are not the most durable devices out there...).
Thanks!
I swear its d3vice to d3vice. I use ps1 and other emulators all the time ive never really watched the frame rates but never noticed lag. I got a gear vr ive been doin a bunch of games on it and it runs killer.
But im on lolipop heavly debloated bare core system.
Stock rom is riddled with throttling while gaming, I did notice games like hearthstone and minecraft getting unplayable after 20 minutes or so, fix is the way of going custom kernel and disabling stock thermal settings, soc on our phone doesn't heat up as much as 810 anyways (also 1440p much more demanding than 1080p take that in to consideration as well)
Of course i tested the heating issue, when the phone is cold is just a bit better, but the same thing basically. For example it would be 1fps difference cold-hot. Also interestingly on Antutu my device scores more than the same G4 with the same soft. Just watching the 3d garden part the phone G4 kills G2, many times smother, but when you try real game is the other way around.
In the other threads people that can't play also score normal on benchmarks.
My phone came with 6.0 stock, so can anyone made the upgrade from Lollipop share their experience? Also if anyone with MM can actually play some on the games I mentioned above as an example?

Just watching the 3d garden part the phone G4 kills G2, many times smother, but when you try real game is the other way around.
In the other threads people that can't play also score normal on benchmarks.
My phone came with 6.0 stock, so can anyone made the upgrade from Lollipop share their experience? Also if anyone with MM can actually play some on the games I mentioned above as an example?

wich kernel you use on G2? i wish there was a dorimanx for G4..
3.10.84 and the soft is V20d-EUR-XX. I'm definitely not a gamer, but can't accept having a G4 that performs like a 80$ lenovo neither... Honestly I was thinking of switching to Samsung, but 20min of reading and I was left with the feeling that this action would just gain me changing one problem with another ones. At lest here I have only that FPS issue...and besides it I like the phone and would strongly prefer not to switch with another brand.
The most irritating thing is that the phone has no signs of hardware problems. On the Gamebench site there's plenty of test done with the stock 5.1 rom - https://www.gamebench.net/en/node/117
As you can see the same games do on average 30fps, witch is as it should be.
Just found a thread discussing the same issue on Galaxy S6....thats it with the brand switching idea...
I don't believe I'll ever have a phone that has everything working in order...

The g3 was a good one
G2 was even better considering the time it first came up, it was also faster than G3. Anyways G4 is better than both, i'm pretty sure this is just a software issue.
Disabling LOGD needs root, right?

Rolled back to lollipop.....now Antutu scores are higher, but gaming is better just a bit. Do you other G4 owners play any games at all? Can't believe no one complains?
Is a hardware problem possible if the phone runs all benchmark and stress tests perfectly?

There is a setting that you can toggle in Settings > Battery & power saving, and then turn off Game optimizer. Don't know if it would help, but it's worth a shot.

I've mentioned it a few times in previous posts, I think the gaming performance on this device is just simply horrendous.

Like i said i play ps1 and loads of games on mine. never notice any lag. I just modded my gear vr to work on my g4 and all the vr apps and games run surprisingly very well. Ive never been one to do benchmarks. Look and feel is more important than numbers to me. Ive seen phones get low benchmarks and game really well.
Im on lolipop by the way
Tested another thing, picked 2 games from the gamebench site that have been tested on g4... So Modern Combat 5 - 29fps Boom Beach - 58fps, both run super fluid. And the scores are exactly like in their test.
Having said that Real Racing continues to be a lot worse but they do 32fps on average. How is this possible? Look like the problem is concentrated on some games, not logical to me? How would it be possible every device to chose individually what games it likes??

Try Sim City BuildIt out on your phone and follow the tutorial right through to Dans City and see how that runs, its pretty poor on mine.
Will try it, even better its a strategy one. Btw, phonearena had complains about underperforming gpu on this phone. Was playing in 1080p trick possible without root?

Dont know about without root but that might be it. i forgot i had my resolution dropped to 1080 for a long time now.
Ive been runnin all my vr 3d intensives in 1080. And like i said ive never noticed lags.

When I play 3d scenes in Antutu they are 1080p, and G4 plays them a LOT smother than G2. So I guess that might solve the problem, 2k is absolutely unnecessary for gaming purposes on this small screen.
Also I'm not sure that the acctual intensity of the game is the main reason, thing looks more like game to game or optimizing issues.
