Chainfire 3d app breaks gingerbread KH2 - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Warning: Installing driver in Chainfire 3d app may break gingerbread KH2. I tried installing it and got into an endless reboot, couldn't recover, had to go through the entire reinstallation process. I haven't tried to test it a second time!

I had that happen on froyo, sometimes it just doesn't go well. Reflash and try again. I'm on kh2 and running the chainfire driver with the powerv Plugin, so it certainly does work.

What is this app supposed to do? Aside from the "night mode", which makes the phone difficult to read, I haven't noticed any difference running it.

You can load special drivers so you can play games like the Tegra 2 only games and Qualcomm games like Bruce Lee.

Are the games any good? The games I've seen for android to date are on the level of old Atari games.

Uh look into gameloft, polarbit and other developers. I mostly only like fully 3d games that are using the GPU. There are tons of games with "advanced" graphics. Most games you don't even need chainfire for.

[Q] Dungeon Defenders lag

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.

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

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

[Q] Modern Combat 2

I have heard many people in this forum mention that they are playing Modern Combat 2 on their infuse but when i try to install it it says my device isnt compatible. I purchased it from the market and have tried running it on CM7 and MIUI. Can someone who has been able to play it on their infuse please tell if there is something i need to do to get this thing to run?
Thanks in advance!
Do you have your ro.sf.lcd_density set to any value other than 240 in your build.prop file?

On MIUI and CM7 Modern Combat 2 does not work. Try GSInfuse that is far better. I used to think that MIUI and CM7 were good but to tell the truth they lag a LOT and are secretly unstable. Modern Combat 2 nor any Gameloft game will work if u have MIUI or CM7. And even if they do...it will lag a lot. My fps on MIUI when rendering complex opengl scenes such as the ones in MC2 is at max 30. On any other ROM im always maxed out at 57 and never go below 40. That goes to say...for a gamer...stay away from MIUI and CM7 for now. Lag is something i cant stand but MIUI was my favourite ROM. I want it again but with the normal android features and its awesome theming. Thats really all its good at. Theming
I'm using the j2 leak and it works fine. Also used infused 2.2.3

have you tried putting your phone into airplane mode and then activiting wifi and then DL'ing and installing the game that way? I did and it worked from me. Ive got both modern combats. both N.O.V.A's, Burnout 6, splinter cell, hawx, rainbow 6, BIA 2, need for speed shift, and GT racer, spiderman, and dungeon hunter and dungeon defender. All work perfectly on the inuse (infused 2.2.3).
And if you download chainfire 3D and the plugins you can even get both Deadspace 1 and 2 work! this Phone can kick some ass when it comes to gaming

Not true. I am running the latest version of MIUI and I have several gameloft games that play excellent. Modern combat 2, backstab, shadow guardian, splinter cell, and others. Absolutely no lag.

Grand Theft Auto III now available in Android Market (may support our device).

As announced earlier,Rockstar Games has released GTA III in the Android Market today. Available now for $4.99, it works on select Android devices, mainly those running on NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, although company is promising a TI OMAP supported version soon, which will work on devices like Galaxy Nexus.
Games Features via Market Description:
Visually stunning updated graphics, character and vehicle models
HD quality resolution
Gameplay optimized for touch screen devices
Custom controls for the mobile platform
Countless hours of gameplay
Gamepad Support for select USB controllers
since,gt-i9003 uses T1 OMAP chipset,so i believe it will work on our device.
Tried to install the apk today, and got "There is a problem parsing the package." message.
not sure if its because of the chip or because i'm still running stock froyo that came with the phone "FROYO.JPKC2" (2.2.1) (arabic version).
If there is anyone who tried the game with gingerbread or a custom rom, please share if its working, and if it requires chainfire, etc,
thanks guys

does droid 3 use the nvidia chip? if not, you and the others that are testing the version of the game intended for nvidia are seeing that you should wait for the omap version, as OP stated
New version (1.1) supports PowerVR and works in our device (no FC after intro), but the game is slow, especially when you're driving a car. I have tried reducing textures and quality on chainfire, but doesn't improve too much.
I am on KPQ and CF-root without OC, you can try with UC OC, and will post here the results.

i playing like xplay enjoy guys
My download stopped about halfway through, and when i opened it again, surprise surprise, it worked!! with no sound tho :S
the graphix are pretty smooth and the controls are very responsive, however the FPS drops a little with sharp turns or quick view changes, still quite playable.
I'm on stock froyo without chainfire 3D or any custom kernals.
Update: The download was corrupted as the memory card became full and save games are corrupted. Perhaps the sound files were never downloaded in the first place.
Without audio it works like a charm..

(Q) GTA3 working on Charge

Anyone have GTA3 from market working on their charge?
Mine downloaded fine but then just sits at a black screen the goes back to launcher after about 5 seconds.
I'm running infinity 1204
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Sorry to say, but our Samsung Charges don't have the nVidia Tegra 2 that GTA3 for Android was built around... You're SOL man. Might still be able to refund your purchase and get yourself a PSP. All jokes aside though I did the same thing and looked it up after. Only phones with the chipset Tegra 2 can operate GTA3.
Have you tried using Chainfire 3D?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
Tried with Chainfire, no luck. Chainfire emulates Tegra's decoding and processing, but can't emulate its hardware, IIRC, so some games (Riptide GP) work perfectly, some games (Galaxy on Fire 2) are glitchy as hell but playable, and some (well, this) just don't work at all.
There's some people without tegras workings. Just depends I guess.

There may be hope. I was poking around in the Galaxy Tab forums (I have one, plus it has the same CPU and GPU). lo and behold, I found the same thread there. One person said this:
misterjom said:
Might be good news:
I found out through LogCat that the problem might lie within the PowerVR SGX540. Which is in fact the same GPU as the Galaxy Nexus, in which Rockstar states will fix soon. So yeah, it should work, just wait a bit for an update.

It worked for me after the update, however, the game lagged pretty bad and eventually froze. It didn't FC, it eventually came back but it wasn't playable. I haven't tried it again since.
So after uninstalling GTA3, I am not unable to re-install it. The Market claims my device in not compatible with it. How did I download it before then??? Any ideas here?
