anybody able to play Dungeon Defenders flawlessly?
i like the game but it gets really laggy on my nexus s when theres enemies on the map. im thinking that this game requires a lot of ram which the nexus s does not have a lot. before i start the game i check my available ram. it varies from 120-150 each time i check. i have CM7 RC1 loaded on my phone with netacrhy 1.2.4 cfs.
anybody have the same problems?
Have you tried using a bfs kernel? I remember on the HTC desire, cfs always lagged more than bfs kernels, not 100% sure but just a thought.

or even overclock. use SetCPU to overclock since you're already using 1.2.4

thanks for the quick reply guys!
i tried over clocking my phone but its still laggy. im gonna try bfs now see if that fixes the lag problems.
well, bfs didnt work as expected. its just about the same as the cfs. still experiencing lag. did you guys have the same problems?
I am able to play dungeon defenders flawlessly. I'm using cm7 and 1.2.2 bfs netarchy kernel without overclocking. I have yet to experience any lag and play frequently.

i know some are going to flame me but...
do you use any task killers? i do, and it helps to keep my phone running smoothly. i rather decide when ram memory needs to be freed rather then let android decide. before playing dungeon defenders, i usually kill all the background apps first.
weird, no Task killers here and dungeon defenders runs flawless

runs flawlessly here too, even without task killers
Damn. I have a task killer but I still lag. Maybe I just have to do a wipe. See if that helps.

update: i restored my phone to factory default. 2.3.2 and dungeon defender plays better now. ill try to see what the cause of the lag was when i was on cm7-netarchy124cfs
I'm was using nightlies but just today I switched to rc1 and it works great just like before.

runing legles here.though it was after reboot and only 94MB in usage.
make sure you have enough MB's free.
and dont use task killer!!
gingerbread already has one build-in.well..sorta
reflashing made everything smoother.
RAM doesn't mean everything.
Its like, so many people think that having 24 GB of ram in your computer is the s***. The desire hd has 768 mb of ram, but that doesn't make it faster

Anyone have any suggestions for the best kernel that runs 3D games smoothly? Mainly gameloft games
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
If I had to guess, it would be Imoseyon's leanKernel 1.92X.
None. No kernel will speed up the GPU from what it runs stock.
Gameloft games run fine for me. You having problems?
I really dont think Kernel will do anything for gaming. Kernel's just control the cpu speeds and more geared for improving the battery. Anything over 1.4ghz has shown to be pointless on the thunderbolt according to the tests. I haven't had any problem with any of the games even at 1ghz.
I was using 1.92x leankernel except i noticed that some apps wud sort of lag more than my other kernel
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
i use either drodspeed or adrynalyne. But your best shot is to test around with different kernels and see which runs best on your device
if try many ICS ROM and many kernel, but there are no one can play my SplinterCellHD more than 5 minutes, it always said 'unfortunatrly blah.. blah.. blah'
any idea for this case?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Slim ICS + Trinity Kernel + over clock!! Should do the trick!!
Greetzz, Jojoost.

They can all play HD. You just need to install chainfire3d driver and you'll be good to go.
thanks for the answere, ill try to install chainfire first.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Using CM9 4.0.3 v2.1 with Air kernal 2.9 (200-1100, lulzactive(stock setting)/sio).
No FC when playing HD games, some games even dont need Chainfire 3D to run.
But it drains my battery
Anyway..there is no error of HD games with CM9
Try it and hope it works on you!
Um... a low available RAM is it's reason, isn't it?
I use a Ram manager PRO, setting ram manager pro Hard gaming, I play HD games and there isn't FC
and my phone's is CyberGR 7 + Air 3.0!
Make sure to install the driver after you install the chainfire app. Once phone reboots you should be good.
I already try all this methods, try to use chainfire and driver install on it, slim ICS, Trinity kernel, overclocked, ram optimation, all are still have same problems. But the longest time I can play its while I'm try to stop common application that running in background, so I think its a RAM problems.

I will test. thanks
These games are not in HD gameloft calls all their nexus game HD...480x800 is not HD resolution
You don't need chainfire unless your using adreno or tegra version of the game and u already stated u can play for up to 5 mins
And u don't need a particular rom or kernel
If was a ram issue you would see performance degrade over the course of gameplay(lower fps stuttering...ect) before is actually crashes
Could be corrupt data.
delete all the content in gameloft folder for game on SD card
Start up the game and re download game data.
pirated version it could be old version not optimised for ics
Or could be trying to do a licence check and when it can't verify it boots u from game
Edit
splinter cell isn't even listed on game loft website for nexus s.
Ive upgraded to the S3 gave my son my ns4g. He plays games on it and it keeps freezing up. Running rasbean. With matrix. Tried CM10 stable too.
Any suggestions on a rom and kernel?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
It is subjective to the game you (your son) are trying to play. Apart from that, check the CPU frequencies and use a bit of overclocked frequency. Also, try to shift the Governor
He played them on his evo4g I guess ill switch it back to that.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
try jellyshot rom with marmite kernel.you probably won't have any issues for games destinated for nexus s.i play gameloft games with severe demands and have no lags or forced closures.
Like others said previously, a little overclock can go a long way. Just be careful not to overdo it!
Hi everyone. I'm a noob.
I was wondering if it was possible to make my HTC Desire S running PACman v20.0.1 ROM able to run Real Racing 3. It doesn't appear in the play store and online it says incompatible. Please reply
Thanks.
I would normally tell you to use market unlocker app, but it doesn't work anymore, so the only thing left would be warez try looking on the net for an apk... I'm playing rr3 on my DS overclocked to 1.7ghz but it's still leggy. Laggy but playable

lower the oc to 1k-1.2k, high oc is known to cause lag in some games.

Real Racing 3 was available on 28th February. I downloaded it, installed, noticed that it was laggy on my ROM. I've changed the ROM and it wasn't available. Since then I've tried some other ROMs and also incompatible. Installed with the .apk file and I'm now playing it(although it's lagging, especially after hacking and buying all cars )
Reaper V4.0 is probably the most stable rom available. Gaming performance proves to be much better on this rom, so you might want to give it a try.

Maybe the game performance would be great on it, but it's on GB. I have flashed the Desire XS and the performance of Real Racing 3 is even better, than on CM and PACman with overclocked CPU. But thanks anyway for your advice!

Your call. Something to remember is that many things affect gaming performance including governors and I/O schedulers. Also, you might want to try using V6 Supercharger script (link is in my sig) and GameBooster 2
Haven't got a chance a chance to try GameBooster 2 yet but judging from the responses in the play store, it seems to work well.

Lately I've been switching back and forth from Stock Samsung JB rom to Custom JB roms (4.2.2) and notice a huge difference in gaming performance and general smoothness.
For me, I feel like all recent custom roms that I've tried, whether its CM10.1, or SLIM6 or AOKP, seem to be a bit laggy when running games compared to the stock JB feel of the same games. It seems like the only way I can get reasonable performance is if I disable hardware overlays, but its still not quite as nice and smooth as stock.
Is this type of thing purely KERNAL controlled? Or is it just the fact that its 4.2.2 and not really optimized for the skyrocket yet? I mean the Android UI feels smoother on custom roms, but in games it does not... I can't wrap my head around that...
Its bugging me because I feel like all these lightweight custom roms should blow away the stock rom in almost all aspects... but if performance can't be better, its a deal breaker for me as daily driver.
I'm sure all the devs are doing their best to work on performance issues and I do appreciate all the hard work going into all the custom roms by the devs, as without them, we'd have nothing to cure our flashing itch of course... :laugh:
Sorry for my lack of knowledge on this, but does anyone have any proven methods of boosting performance of games?

Oh ok, well are you running any other mods/scripts/tools that would speed up performance? I tried stable as well but it still stuttered for me "out of the box".
ALSO, I can't even get the free game "Subway Surfers" to load off the Play Store at all... does it work for you? It used to work fine for me, but now I'm just getting a black screen on game load (soft keys are lit and system is not frozen), it never starts. I've always done a full wipe, even tried wiping internal SD, and it still won't run. If I go back to stock JB rom, it works perfectly fine everytime....
Maybe the game developer locked it down to only stock kernals with a recent update?!?... is that even possible?

No worries man but thanks for the replys. I went back to a 4.1.2 Rom and everything is fast and smooth again.
