Develop Bugs

So I got the tab pro 10.1 WiFi.. but

I got the device mainly becouse I found a good deal it fit my not too high budget for a tablet. I am also a mobile gamer and I thought with its octa cpu it would handle all games perfectly. That does not seem to be the case, on highest grafics setting asphalt 8 runs at <20 fps while my HTC One m7 runs it perfectly. Is there any way to fix that? Also is there any chance of cyanogenmod for this device? I know it's hard for exynos cpus but is there really no way?

same here...
I tried asphalt 8 and the FPS was very low... I was very disapointed.
but I'm pretty sure the problem is software related (this game is not optimized for the device), because I installed NFS most wanted and I was blown away with the graphics and smoothness of the game. If you like a good racing game similar (even better in my opinion) to asphalt 8, I highly recommend that you install NFS most wanted.:good:
an update by samsung or gameloft will eventually solve these problems...

Yeah I also found out the problem must be related to asphalt because other games, even mc and gta sa run very well I will check out need for speed as well then

NOVA3 Free and Asphalt 8 slower than a Huawei honor 6

This is really crazy,
I've compared NOVA3 Free and Asphalt 8 with a Honor 6 and to my surprise, the Honor 6 is more fluent.
The 550ML have some scenes which are slower (for example the long view in the start of Nova3 free)
3Dmar score is 18300 for my 550ML and 13200 for the Honor6, Honor6 is in Full HD.
How is this possible ? The lag on the 550ML is not enormous but still you can observe it.
No applications runnning in the background, no powersave mode enabled, latest update.
Could it be that lollipop is not optimised for games ?

I don't have the games you mention, but I do play a few, namely Traffic Racer, Lane Splitter, Cut the Rope, Angry Birds... and all of these are fantastic on my 550ML.
But I also have Parking Mania installed and it is terrible, the screen rendering as the game scene moves is lagging badly and making it difficult to play. I find it difficult to blame the phone given that some of the other games which work well should be even more demanding on the system.
Could it be that some games just don't run well on Intel Chip? (I'm no expert so tell me if I'm talking crap).

I have 551ML and i have tried NOVA 3 freedom edition... Its plays smoothly no lags no frame drops...Graphics are amazing...No problems faced by me in any games yet..I played Nova 3 Freedom edition, Modern Combat 4 Zero Hour, Modern Combat 5...All these games played well without any issues..I have high end variant of zenfone 2 so have enough ram...Maybe Ram is your culprit.. Try closing apps which are not in use and use in-built ram booster

I also noticed some lag on a few games.. Subway Surfers, DomiNations, Simcity are a few examples. Games that aren't at all that demanding, especially Subway, which always ran smoothly on my 1st gen Moto G, without any problems, and on my 550ML it's noticeable some frame drops. Now I don't think this can be RAM problems, considering Moto G has half the ram and never had such drops. Maybe some games aren't optimized for this soc? .. It has to be because, I've tested games that are flat out heavier and don't have this consistent lag..
One thing is for sure, this phone should have more than enough horsepower to run all these games without issues, yet it doesn't.

Or this could be related to lollipop since some games are running low slower on lollipop than on Kitkat, at least it is what i've read.
A bit disappointed this frames drop on the 550ML, when you see the benchmark, you cannot think of having this.

Lollipop don't make games run slower. They played roughly the same after I updated my Nexus 4 and G2 to Lollipop months ago, and the Nexus 9 didn't display any lag even after I reduced the GPU speed by 50%.
There's likely something problematic with the drivers for the PowerVR, or a general lack of optimization for this Intel chipset. Games that are smooth on an iPhone 5S are sluggish on this phone.

If it is a lack of optimization how am i able to play it smoothly shouldn't my device also lag while playing Nova 3... I didn't notice any lag in any games..I even tried psp emulator and games are working fine

When you see this video "www".youtube.com/watch?v=xzcxFMbjlME (Remowe the two "" for the link) Asphalt8 has been way slower on Lollipop than kitkat event if the 3Dmark score is two times lower than the 551ML.
We can ask ourselves if the chipset of 550ML has not a leak of performance instead of the 551.
I have created a ticket also for that issue, we'll see what asus answer me.

I don't have Nova 3, so maybe there's something wrong with their device. All the games I have such as Real Racing & Mortal Kombat are fine.

I don't know but it seems many many people complaining are 550ML users... I hardly saw 551ML users complaining (except for battery drain and network drops)

I also don't believe that it is a RAM issue. I always use the game booster for RAM and start playing with about 1.2GB of RAM free.
I have checked the Google Play feedback on the game that gives me problems (Parking Mania) and nobody complains of the lag. I can't believe that everyone reviewing this game is using a phone with 4GB RAM.
Whatever the issue is, it certainly does not affect all games, so I am tending to think that we should not be blaming Asus for this one.

Tried and tested nova 3..1.5gb file....no lag what so ever...only one I notice my phone got to 45 c when playing this...nah....i go back to fifa 15 ..maybe you got so many files on you phone...i have a 800 ram free when playing nova 3....550ml user here..ww

A video is better than a long explination.
Here is a video taken where i can show some latency and frames drop, sorry for the very bad picture quality
link "www66.zippyshare.com/v/ym89Djkd/file.html"

i experiancing a strange problem
none of the gameloft games are not working in my device. and fifa15 too.:angel:

All of the Gameloft games I have tried are working fine. Usually no lag, but frame rate can drop if there is a lot going on.

Has frame rate improved since last update? Someone on another thread noticed an improvement on a couple of his games.

I and someone else noticed improvements in a few games so I think the GPU drivers were updated
But I've also noticed that the game I had seen improvement in and only game I had trouble with, The Witcher Battle Arena, that it now spikes CPU usage (usage rises to mid to high 90s) and locks the frequency to the highest step. Not sure if the game is poorly optimized for x86 and/or NDK issues and/or lingering driver issues or what. After a while the phone overheats and throttles.

I have noticed a performance improvement with this procedure :
Go into Settings then Developer Options and check Disable HW Overlays,

120fps games

Hi , i couldn't find any threads about the main purpose of asus rog phone 2
Let's share our experience with those games supports 120hz display

Shadowgun legends
It looks amazing on rog phone 2

Asus released a list of 120 fps games.

After watching a streamer play it, I've been playing Sommoner's War. It's a real chill game you can relax with. Smooth af on this thing.
I also played CoD Mobile today and it's definitely not as smooth. It's really fun tho if you like Call of Duty. I just wish the fonts were bigger and bolder.

Well i almost tried all it seems shadowgun legends is the best game for showing the power of rog phone 2 , asus will send a nice outfit and gun as a gift also , i got a nice costume from Asus in PUBG also
Please if anyone can find a game with better graphics let me know also

Critical ops. Don't know why the list doesn't mention it. Best counter strike clone on mobile.

You'll have to level up a few (level 5+ i think). Then you can pvp, coop, dungeons, etc. It's not a bad game. Runs great on the ROG phone 2.

What games on S20 Ultra plays in 120fps mode?

I've tried few games like Real Racing 3 and Shadow Legends which both ran on 120fps on ROG Phone 2, but they only show 60fps on S20 Ultra. so was wondering what games supports S20 Ultra 120hz display.

I believe Asphalt 9 does. How do you check at what refresh rate the game will play at?
Edit: found this list.

every game if you use this

Pokemon GO definitely

Have you tried dolphin?
Lol been asking everyone to test this.
Not sure if they have a 120 fps mode but would be nice to see if it actually runs games.
If it does then anything on the play store will be a breeze

Really? Will check it out. There's a Mali optimized version.
The windwaker on GameCube ran perfect on the oneplus 5, perfect when I removed the page file on the P20 Pro and added performance mode via magisk (utterly unplayable without those tweaks)
Literally no settings would allow the pro to run those games..
If the 77 can run GameCube games and perhaps Wii then I'll be impressed.
I know the 865 is something special and this is Samsung's last chip is making, just hope they optimize it, for £1400 it should be able to run anything.
I think I'm going to find it's bottleneck, my money's on the GPU.

Yea thats the SD mate I knew it would work perfectly on that, i'm just curious about the Exynos, it's been way behind in the past, hoping this year it'll be up to scratch, for the price it certainly should be.

Mine seems to fade in and out. Game looks amazing then it fizzles out and looks worse than my S20+

World Of Tanks Blitz is one of my favorites.

Call of duty Mobile and I think PUBG and Fortune too.

Question A72 and Dota Underlords

Hey there today I broke the screen of my Huawei P30 Pro,and now I am in need of a new phone and dont have a lot of money and I was considering A72,but the one and only thing that I am botherd with since its procesor is much weaker then that of my p30 pro, Can it run Dota underlords, it is literaly the only game I play and its a bit of an ritual for me,morning coffe and underlords. I chose A72 cause of price,big screen and watter resistance, and its curently on sale in one of the store in my country. Can someone test it pl for 20,30 mins on good graphic settings,or if someone by any chance already plays that game on the A72. I need fast reply cause the sale is only today,thank you in advance!

DOTA Underlords has like .. very low requirements, it can even run on 32-bit devices, 1.5 GB of RAM, ...
Consider seeing this video for A72 PUBG gameplay. Even the older A71 is a great choice.
Developers also optimize games for Snapdragon chips more than they do for Kirin chips, comparing a chip vs. chip isn't the same as comparing device vs. device.

I used to play this game, but now I switched to Auto chess, because Dota optimization was very upsetting (. You can read reviews in the market, everyone writes about poor optimization. I'll say this, it's not comfortable to play at high settings. The game is generally unoptimized.
A72 is not to say that the game. For this price, you can take a smartphone with a more powerful processor for games. A72 is still more about cameras
