[Q] Nexus 5 strange lags - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I've got problem with my new nexus 5 (ver EU 32gb)
Some apps and games are working so slow, adobe reader(scrolling is like 15fps), real racing 3(when on the screen are more than 2 cars game is so laggy) even small games like kingdom rush:frontiers runs slow...
And my device have pretty bad scores in quadrant(8000 points) or antutu(22000points).
Is the device working properly? Or is this just 4.4 Kitkat fault? I'm so worried cause on my old sensation with cm10 4.2.2 some apps work better than on new nexus 5 with adreno 330.
PS, device is all stock, no root, no custom rom. I'm using dalvik.

Gaming experience on XOOM

Hey all!
First let me say that I searched and couldn't find any similar topic so excuse me if there's any! It might be my eyes :cyclops:
Ok so I am really considering to buy a XOOM, and I've done some good search about it and i like it! But what i couldn't really know about is the gaming experience!
Since the tab is a bit old now running with the first dual cores generation; i'm afraid that it might not run the new games in a good way!
By that i mean new games like batman, spiderman, asphalt 7, MW3 (bit old), FIFA 2012, 9mm, dead space, nova 3, etc... and all those power hungry games!
Can anyone share with me/us his experience!
And please you are welcomed to open a gaming experience conversation too in this thread so we can all share it together!
Thank you!
PS: I mean real gaming experience, lags, FPS, etc... and not games compatibility!
Don't worry, you'll find on android 80 % of games that are on iOS, and exclusivities also
Moved from 3GS to the XOOM and I downloaded back nearly all the games I had on the 3GS
Gaming on the Xoom is an extremely pleasant experience. All those *new* games work very well and the 10.1 inch screen makes it fun to game.

Asphalt and dead space run fine.
Some minor slow downs on asphalt, but nothing that hinders game play. Haven't tested dead space too much yet.
Asphalt has random slowdowns on most devices, its due to the software, look at reviews for the app and a bunch of people are complaining of lag. Its up to Gameloft to fix the lag.

Do you know what devices have trouble with Asphalt 7? It's like night and day switching between my Xoom and Galaxy Nexus with that game.
My galaxy nexus runs asphalt without a hitch, my Xoom occasionally laggs but nothing to be concerned about.

Waiting for stable version aka 3.0.0
Running at eos build 129, it is stable as hell, n no lags in any game when cpu is set to 312-1400, interactive
My Sim City doesn't work on JB though. It randomly hangs after a while.
Xoom is the best android gaming experience I had. But don't forget you can always overclock

Are you considering to buy a Xoom or Xoom 2?
The Xoom is quite heavy which in my opinion lowers the game quality for some games. I don't know about the weight of Xoom 2 but there are a lot of new tablets of many manufacturers and the prices will decrease a lot. In 6 or 12 months tablets in general will be much cheaper, also the release price for new models will. Prices for used Xoom 1 will be extremely low this year around/after Christmas.
Especially for gaming consider the weight of a tablet!
Anyway good games are Six Guns and Dungeon Defenders (but they are also good on other devices).
Have fun!
The weight doesn't bother me, you get used to it.

[Q] Does Dead Trigger lag only for me? o.O

Hello guys i am new to XDA and i have just a question in mind......
Before purchasing my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 i saw some gaming reviews as i am a gamer and games like Dead Trigger [My Fav.] and MC4 did not lag at all but when i finally purchased it Dead Trigger showed noticeable but negligible lag. I did not expect lag from this! Am i the only one? Need help guys
Info:-
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3100
Rooted
No custom ROM installed!
All dead?
All dead?
The graphic really lagging. So just play with Note
No lag at all with mine.
Even when I was in stock 4.0.3 I used to play MC4 and Deadtrigger just fine. The auto-graphic was set to low, but I manually changed to high and also didn't have any problem with lag.

Our SGT2 7.0's family tab doesn't "lag" unless if I'm changing guns. Its the same with my iPad
(All on High graphics setting). The zombie in the black suit/jacket spits out a ball with blood on the iPad version whereas its only blood on Android.
It was smooth at low graphics!

It was though smooth on low graphics but i want to play with high graphics. Will installing a custom ROM help me?
The lag is negligible but it irritates me
If i had a good pocket i could get a Note for me

Custom Roms do help but have you tried Samsung's 4.1.2 yet? I don't have negligible lags on it but changing guns.
You should have gotten the Nexus 7, its round about the same price but a lot more fragile.
Doesn't have negligible lags even while changing guns unless graphics is on Tegra 3 settings (pity)

If you're willing to avoide your warranty, try this:
CyanogenMOD

AOKP

Most reliable custom roms of all
Than install a custom kernel and overclock

[Q] Best gaming ROM ?

I'm using Cyanogenmod 11 (unlocked bootloader, supercid, s-off) + build.prop from Galaxy S3.
I like this rom a lot but sometimes it likes to crash in big games. Asphalt 8 crashes right after booting the game.
Can you recommend any other rom for gaming? I like it stock as possible + lots of free ram.
CM11 is perfect but... is there any fix for games?
You can try with Paranoid. I'm quite happy with it. Never tried Asphalt 8 though.
It's prety old rom I guess I will just try liberty sixth element...

Nexus 5 Gaming

Hi all, been gaming on my Nexus 5 pretty frequently lately and I have some concerns. I have read some threads about how great games like Dead Trigger 2 look and run but I can't get mine to run stable on medium settings! Is this naturel, because I know it's got a Snapdragon 800 as it's processor and that's a pretty solid setup. I know the processor is aging and so is the phone but shouldn't I be able to run aging games at pretty great FPS'? The rom I am running is a more recent version of Cyanogenmod 12.1 CAF and also use greenify to keep apps hibernated . Also keep in mind I tested this on stock 5.0.1 and 5.1.1 and still the same results. Thanks!
I play heroes of order and chaos.. On default settings.. And it runs pretty smooth.. I also tried asphalt 8 and modern combat.. All ran very well.. Only problem is battery life and heating around camera.. Tested on stock 5.1.1 and pure nexus rom.

Thanks for the reply! Never played Modern Combat, but I have played Asphalt 8, just not on the Nexus 5. Will give them a try and see If I get good results. Also with the processor it has I expect heating and severe battery drain.

Nova 3 Freedom Edition, Heavy Lag :Solution Required

Hey Geeks,
Recently my friend purchased this phone but is facing ridiculous lag while trying to play "Nova 3", truely speaking this game is not playable at all. Even the game videos that come in between stages tend to lag. While i saw couple of gaming review videos where Nova 3 Runs smoothly on this phone except for one user who was also facing heavy lags. My friend got this phone couple days back and there is no software update avaialble for the phone as of now. Spec wise, phone should be able to run this game flawlessly as even xiaomi phones with meditek processor clocked lower are able to run this game smoothly.
I was wondering if anyone could suggest some solution for that.
please clarify if Problem is with the handset itself or some software update screwed it or some tweaking is required to rage CPU to be able to handle this game smoothly.
FYI:Its a 16GB internal, 2GB Ram Version
Regards
Can I have some reply please

Play it on your 1+1?
There's no custom kernels out for oc support so no way to boost performance. I would clear recents and before playing or maybe a full restart to clear out your ram. Re-install app?
Star Wars uprising runs pretty good on my moto g3... few hiccups but overall pretty good.
I don't think overlooking is required at all coz Cpu seems capable enough as I already mentioned that lower spec xiaomi phone can run this game without lag ?
