if it's not in the app options settings then no. You can only make it run smoother and such with different ROMs/kernels/governors. some ROM's have graphic tweak but I don't know if that affects apps like real racing.
phones are still nowhere close to desktop perfomance

whatever i tried...it is compared to my desire HD sooo slow...it doesn't load multiplayer on time...just after 3 full minutes it responds....:Swhile i am hearing from other sensation(xe)users that it plays without any problems...what the heck am i doing wrong
Try updating ur game to New version but I'm assuming you haven't done it already but I think the game has got faster at loading and playing but I think it can be even better.

Sensation's N.O.V.A. 3 advanced graphics and effects

Hi people, since Nova's 3 release, i've been wondering why our Sensation version has no full video effects (like blur, depth of field, hi-res textures and improved shaders...), and another phones like SGS 2, have it. Take a look over Youtube and search S2 gameplay and Sensation gameplay; youll be able to see the difference. Why is it possible? If I use Chainfire 3d I can see the full effect mode, but in certain part of the game (sometimes at first load) game stasrs to turn the screen to black and show glitches and artifacts that ruin the game because they do it unplayable. Anyone has the Sensation and can play nova with full effect?
Rrgsrds!!
on my galaxy tab 7+ the gameplay is like ps3 but on sensation it is like nova 1
how did you get it to play? it refuses to download on my sensation because "it is not compatible"

I just bought it on Play Store. I'm using ICS AOSP (sense based) ROM - Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2.
Anyone else have tried it and want to conplain? We can write emails to Gameloft. It's not too fair paying 6 euros by a low end version.

Here same as you. Probably its due to Adreno 22x processor architecture or something like that, because the HTC One S has this problem too. But the matter is... Its likely that Gameloft fixes the One S problem soon, but Im afraid the HTC Sensation won't be that lucky. Gameloft develop a low version for the Sensa and avoid working on it because it isnt new like the HTC One s. Bussiness matters...
What do u think guys?
ya i play nova 3 on my htc sensation with full effect
I play N.O.V.A. 3 without put Chainfire 3d , and the game i perfect with full effects . I'm with Elegancia Sens 4 v.2.2.0 and everithinh is perfect , it's fly

After suffering the screen turning black issue, i have had some success. I am running the elegancia sense 3.6, 2.5 rom with the sebastian kernel, and chainfire drivers. I checked the box to hide CF running, and disabled the mapbuffer emu, in the settings and am using the powervr plugin. this is working really well with no issues so far.

If you hide CF, you play the low end stock version of the game for our Sensation, because the game doesn't detect the cf driver, so you are not enabling the advanced effects. The question is... why doesn't gameloft enable the high graphics to the Sensation? It posseses a high end hardware like Adreno 220. Why?

I have played through the entire game on my Sensation. At first I was hesitant to purchase it because I didn't know if it would run at all. To my surprise it ran reasonably well even on the stock Sense image I was using at the time. However, after playing through it a little there was obvious lag, stutters and just hiccups that would come at inopportune times and cause you to lose the race. I then switched launchers to Nova while still retaining the stock Sense ROM. Things got better, much better actually, but still not good enough. Then I rooted and went to cm9.1 stable + Nova and things were almost perfect! I played through the rest of the game, actually pretty much the whole game, with cm9.1 + stable and there were only a few occasions where framerates degraded or hiccups/stutters messed up the gameplay. I thought what I was seeing was pretty much the best the sensation could do. That was until I recently upgraded to Albinoman's CM10.1 Kang. With that ROM NFS-MW is now running practically perfect. I think the key difference here is the amount of free RAM. With CM10.1 I have significantly more free RAM and can hold open 2 or 3 times more apps than with CM9.1. The Sensation is severely lacking in the RAM department and NFS-MW is a very memory-demanding game. The lighter the OS load, the more RAM is available to the game, the less swapping occurs and the ultimately the more fluid the game plays. Hope that helps.

if you are running sense, use faux kernel 10b9 or 10b8 overclock it to 1.7 then use intellidemand as governor.

Enable both cores ^^ and Set gov to Performance
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
Faux's kernel has both cores active by default, and the CPU is already clocked at max when 3D gaming.
As for the lag, it could be a lack of RAM. You could try using a swap partition and see if that makes a difference.

How exactly do you enable both cores?
I ran the game on the same mobile and kernel with gov set to Performance and i noticed both CPU cores are around 50% during the first race (with Micro CPU monitor)
I got 57% performance of the normal bitrate; 17.3fps if the normal 30fps

Faux's kernel doesn't use mpdecision so both cores are always active.

Bad graphics on games

I've been trying some games on my GT p3110 and I've noticed the graphics are pretty weak compared to other devices', games such as The Dark Knight Rises, MC4 and others. I'm uploading some printscreens of Blitz Brigade I took while playing. Check out the outlines of the shapes..Are your graphics better than this or it's normal on this device?

Our tab isn't the best option for games... maybe its normal for our tab.

First of all post high res pics .

I don't see any graphics issue leaving games like real racing 3 which set graphics intensity according to devices(which can be set to high with some patches after which it too works great).

I guess they read the device specifications and automatically they include only resolutions that the device would run

U can probably do something similar with other games!
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
If you run custom ROMs like CyanogenMod or flash a custom kernel such as KK, you realise that most graphic issues are resolved. The problem lies mostly with the outdated/poor implementation of PowerVR drivers in Samsung's stock ROM. Custom ROMs & kernels are using newer drivers.
HM I tried to do that with the game in example (Real Racing 3) and it worked but I don't see how to do that with other games

There's some patching tool for Modern Combat 4 that can tweak the graphics if I recall. I think you can check in the HTC One X forum.
But that's beside the point, the main point being that the PowerVR SGX540 GPU is starting to feel a little underpowered as it shows its age. Even if you could force the games to run on high or max settings, performance would take a big hit, in some cases, the game slows to an unplayable pace.
The reason why there are patches, tools & mods to manually tweak graphics settings is because of the fragmented nature of Android, some devices have powerful hardware but have not been properly supported by the game developer yet.
---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------
By the way, I have checked out the screenshots in this thread, they seem fine?
I would recommend the threadstarter to check out these games on other PowerVR SGX540 devices for a better comparison. If these games look better on other PowerVR SGX540 devices, then it would warrant further investigation.
As I mentioned already, the stock Samsung firmware for P31xx uses older PowerVR drivers according to various modders. By switching to custom ROMs or kernels that implement newer PowerVR drivers, users have reported better graphic performance/compatibility in games.
Well i had bad graphics with brotherhood of violence
I had installed brotherhood of violence game and was surprised to see the difference in graphics between s2 and tab2 for the same game. Graphics were soo terrible that i had tp uninstall the game from my tab and had to play on s2....
Well one possibility to have better graphics is to overclock the gpu(more computations per second) and then use patches for higher settings in games... as previously mentioned in the thread some developers ( mainly gameloff) seriously cap the performance...
u can use any custom kernel like kk's blackhawk/next kernel or dhollem kernel to overclock the GPU... see their respective threads for more info..
Our tabs GPU is clocked at 304mHz by default in stick and cm... these kernels allow overclocking 384mHz and 512mHz..
so the problem of frame rate drops when using patches can be solved by overclocking the GPU...
But we need to remember that Powervr540 is at least 4 yr old technology( i first saw it in galaxy s)... so we need to cut it some slack...
Cheers
