[Q] How to increase tilt sensitivity - T-Mobile LG G2x

ok so, i was playing temple run on my g2x and noticed that i had to tilt my phone all the way to left and right just to run right beside the edges. so is there a way to change it? (some of you might tell me that there's an option for sensitivity on the options of temple run, i know about that and its sensitivity for the swipes not for the tilt sensor)

I know that different roms or kernals don't know which affect your g2xs sensitivity. No idea how to change it though manually.

Look around for the other temple run thread and you will see what's going on, with that knowledge, you are running a CM7 variant?

yes im running cm7 nightly, so i did go to the temple run thread and i kinda found out that some people installed new kernels and fixed it.

Yea, a different kernel will help with that. Try either Faux or Morfic.

Poor gaming performance on kk4 based roms

My phone always seemed to run about every game I threw at it flawlessly till I went to kk4. I'm on my third kk4 rom now and while everything seems lightning quick otherwise, my games seem to stutter quite a bit. I was just trying mc2 and every minute or so the game would stutter and go into the pause menu. Madden 12 is unplayable. Just picked up trial x2 and the first one ran flawlessly on my old froyo roms but again stuttering issues. What can I do to improve this? Clear memory before I launch?

So anything 3D intensive seems to run terrible right now. Very frustrating. Any suggestions? Everything will do the sudden hesitation, nothing is really playable right now. Help someone! Suggestions please!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Try ICS.. My games are faster and smooth than kk4 roms.
I wonder if this is drm related and titanium backup based issue. Because it'll run stuff just fine for maybe 20 seconds then it'll just pause, the screen will flash black and then it'll kick back on and run fine for a bit before it does it again.

Are you running a ROM that includes the thunderbolt tweaks or that has modified the LMK?
I'm currently running stocky 2.2.3 voodoo lag fix enabled, no other modifications

You might want to check that you don't have any scripts hanging around in your init.d folder. Also, check the options for that kernel in CWM. I belive it changes your I/O scheduler and your Governor.
OK stupid question time where is the init.d folder and what do I look for when I get there and wouldn't flashing a new rom clear that anyway?

Not a stupid question at all. Some ROMs are no wipe and don't actully reformat certain areas of the system or data partitions.
/etc/init.d <---I would just check to make sure the folder is empty. If you have anything in there, move it to your SDCARD and then reboot.
OK checked the folder its empty and there were no performance tweaks options in the recovery, it's samauri kernal Btw.

I had to go read what was in that kernel as I haven't used that one yet. This is the only part that concerns me:
topiratiko's ORAM+ inspired LMK settings (not exactly the same but similar)
LMK settings can mess with game play if they are set too high. You could try flashing one of the corn kernels or even the stock kernel to see if that improves it for you. I think you would have to convert back to RFS but I'm not sure. I know Corn does support ext4.
If its no better, you could always flash back to Samuri.
Yeah I was on the corn kernel when I was on Saurom, no voodoo but ext formatting options

EXT4 = Voodoo lag fix
Corn also has the Voodoo Color and Voodoo Sound
Yeah I'm aware of that, wonder if it matters or not if I disable the lagfix before I install the corn kernel
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Check the OP post. I think you have to because the first time it boots it defaults to rfs and then you setup ext4 in the CWM
Cool I'll try swapping kernals when I get off work in a bit. Thanks for the help!

Well I'm on the corn kernal now and sadly nothings changed. I'm using asphalt 6 to test and since it has 3D cars in the menu, the same hesitation happens in the menu.... Hey I just had a thought, could it have to do with having the games on the sd card instead of internal memory?

It could. Try moving it to the internal memory and see if that improves things.
And I just moved asphalt to internal memory and no dice this is really frustrating me, and I'm on my third kk4 rom, i'm really starting to think at&t and samsung broke this rom somehow. I love the speed but it might be time to go back to cyanogenmod

Temple Run - Gyroscope/accelerometer issues?

Anyone else having issues with the internal gyroscope/accelerometer? Whenever i try to get the runner to shift, it have to literally rotate the phone 45 degrees or more. My tablet and iPhone don't need this? Any ideas on how to increase the accelerometer sensitivity phone- wide?
pretty sure its a game issue as it is their first release, give it some time it will be hashed out I'm sure.
I forgot to mention the real reason i posted this--
My phone had a rather harsh fall onto concrete, i was wondering if that could've messed up its internals. Hope it was just a glitch!
Same! I have to turn 45 degree. I look like an idiot playing it. XD
I have this same issue with my tilt controlled games as well. (Doodle Jump & now Temple Run) seems to be a gyroscope calibration issue but since we don't have a way to calibrate (not included on stock rom) then were pretty much stuck playing at a 45° angle.

Mine seems more responsive when held parallel to the ground, but I don't have any issues holding it perpendicular to the ground, in fact just testing this, I scored one of the highest runs I've had yet. I'm running stock 2.3.3
Damn, i was hoping there would be simple fix

What kernel are you using? I remember back when on CM7 based roms, Draw Something wouldn't work, unless you used Faux's kernel.

ya, im running HFS1.4 with harsh kernal and it works fine... BUT on my wifes phone running HFP2.0 with the faux kernal it came with tilt barely works... strange..
I've noticed that it works perfectly on weapon g2x, I think it's an issue with cm7 based roms

I believe it's a kernel issue.

Works on Faux + EB. I have to tilt it a bit but I've gotten used to it.

Have you oc'd at all? Or set scaling to performance?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Off you are on a bml ROM (haven't cheeked out bare bonne so i don't know) you can flash lightning zap then adjust the governor settings... There are instructions on how to do so linked in the OP... That should smooth out fps refresh rate...

Im on the oc kernel so yeah i got that bad boy cranked up to 1400, it was my understanding that only ondemandx and smartass worked in regards to scaling on this particular kernel, but hey i'll try just about anything, if that makes a difference i will let you know.

Each phone is different, tweaks and such that improves your phone performance may not help the next phone. That is also why the game might be unplayable on your device. Also most newer roms have the various tweaks built in. So installing them twice can end up harming your performance.
I was in the same boat as OP. I used Gremlin Remover, and started from scratch, and now I'm getting decent performance from GTA. Still lags some. But not as bad as used to. Definately playable.
It works just fine for my wife.

[Q] CPU Settings for games?

Bought Mass Effect Infiltrator today as it was on sale. Wouldn't boot until I installed Chainfire 3D and disabled MapBuffer Emu I think it was.
Now after logging into Origin for first time, it crashes phone every time I try and reload the game.
My question: Whats the best SetCPU settings? I've been trying a number of max settings, and governors, and all have caused phone to reboot. If anyone knows a magic setting that would keep me from rebooting for hours and hours, it would make my night much easier.
Or are there other tricks I can try?

It doesn't seem to be the phone's settings. Have you tried some other ROMs? I don't know if it was posted here or not, but CM7 reloaded had a change in the video driver and may prove diagnosticly beneficial. What ROM are you running? You may want to try a FroYo ROM. Maybe one with b_kernel?
It runs fine for me on Minimal Triumph and Sharp Roms.
