[JB] GPU Memory

Hey guys,
I havent flashed Jelly Bean yet but I think i know why for example Temple Run 2 lags.
The GPU has not enough RAM allocated.
At GB the GPU has around 200 of RAM
At JB it has only around 100.
Anybody know how to change it?
Even if u play 720P video, it lags and sometimes freezes I experienced that.

200MB of RAM allocated to the GPU? That's impossible, on GB we had 555MB of usable RAM, 213MB was hardware reserved, some of this was allocated to the camera, some for HD 720p playback and a tiny amount for the GPU itself, the specific amount to be allocated is kernel dependent. You can't do anything about that. The change to kernel 3.0 brought several changes, the whole Mali libs were reworked and newer modules were used, that should bring better performance in theory.
The reason behind the lags in Temple Run 2 may be either hardware acceleration (which may not be working as it should) or a GPU lib issue. Both shall be fixed in the final firmware. You can't just expect things to work right away in such an experimental firmware which wasn't even meant to be used on a daily basis.

yes, basically it is not for end user, this is just experimental rom so we can find what's inside the rom (feature etc) and find some bug if exist.

Ever thought that this "leak" brings Samsung free testing? In a relatively short amount of time people found some bugs with battery drain and BT issues.
It could be a premeditated release to help developers build a bug free firmware sooner.
Next step would be to make the source code public and then they would get help with code generation as well
Just a theory, don't want to start any flames

To any of you who might have concerns, there is no doubt about it -- performance is lower on JB at this point, but hell...
IT'S NOT GPU RELATED.
The issues you've been reporting directly address video decoding issue and/or lower CPU performance in some scenarios.
GPU does not take care of video encoding/decoding. My guess is there is still no full HW accelerated decoding available.
On a side note, vRAM is irrelevant to GPU performance as well. vRAM keeps pre-rendered frames and texture data. How does that quantity make GPU faster or slower? If there was not enough vRAM to handle all the texture data and pre-rendered frames - you'd see artifacts on the screen, yet you don't.

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).

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

[App][Share] Gl tools. Increase Gaming performance

Hello everyone
I found this app named GLtools it can increase gaming perfomance by decreasing quality I play gta 3 on.my xperia tipo lag is almost nill by using 0.5x resolution
It works same as chain fire 3d
Its an awesome app everyone should try it
I tried on xperia tipo on cm10
Heres the playstore link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ce=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=gltools
Feature list
- Change resolution and rendering bitness in any app, even if it doesn't support that by default.
- Change GPU name and enjoy enhanced graphics even on a noname low-end GPU.
- Take full control over textures: now you can decompress/recompress them (even if your GPU doesn't support that
texture format) and resize. Note that decompression feature is available only if you'll install a plugin (internet is
required to do that)
- Optimize shaders on-the-fly for optimal performance (the same optimizer is used in Unity3D engine by default)
- Enable MSAA or CSAA in any app to improve graphics quality (make sure that your GPU supports that)
- Measure gained performance with a nice onscreen FPS counter (or you can output FPS information to Logcat if you
are a pro)
Also attached my benchmark on xperia tipo

This thing is seriously effective; with this and Seeder, you won't see any lag while gaming!
The settings I use: AA is 4x non-Tegra (yes, I know AA makes it slower), textures downscaled to 0.5x, full resolution, fake GPU info of Adreno 320, no decompression or recompression of textures (I don't know how it affects performance).

Nope, not for me. Expanding RAM will decrease the life of your SD card. I paid 20 Euros for my Class 10 16 GB card, and I'm not in the mood to buy a new one soon... I am using swap in the system and cache partition, but that's because those aren't completely full and swapping won't have a negative effect(thanks to @[email protected] for the explanation)
Will try GLTools in the afternoon, looking forward to it.

Well, you can flash it. It won't brick your device. But it's a different phone with different spaces in the partitions. I'm not sure if you will benefit from it.
Just make a back-up and flash it. See if you gain performance or if it doesn't make a difference.
For me, it does.

Cause it tries to fill your phone's screen, even though you have set it to 0.25 times the resolution, so it just tiles itself?
Lowering resolution is the most effective framerate-wise, but the viewing experience is crap.
