[Q] Best gaming ROM ? - HTC One S

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...

is it only me or everyone? (lag in most games)

i usually feel lag in most of the 3d games like MC3 Fallen nation,nova 2,3 , asphalt 7 bla bla bla,,, and when i see videos on youtube running the same games with neo v , arc, desire HD, they look a lot smoother ,,
why does it lag on my desire s????
are you running stock Rom with sense? It was one of the reasons I rooted mine, solved the lag issue straight away.

Well if you're running the rom that's in your signature it's no surprise considering it's using the cm9 kernel which is still in alpha stages. You're not going to get the same performance on a rom that doesn't have the best drivers and optimized kernel compared to the stock gingerbread or stock sense ICS roms such as the incredible s rom that was ported over using our ICS 3.0 sense kernel. If you're using the stock rom then it could be that you're nearly full on memory or you have to many apps running. Those games are really resource heavy games and the desire s is only a 1ghz single core device. In today's standards that's becoming quite poor. But the games shouldn't be lagging too much. You're going to get lag on nova 3 and asphalt 7 because they are brand new so they will be optimized for dual core devices on ICS

I'm running asphalt 7 and nova 3 with no lag whatsoever, ok I'm oc but only to 1250. Don't know why they would lag, only thing I can think of is the sense elements taking ram

I must of installed over 20 different roms when I had my desire and I didn't find one that was as "smooth" as the stock rom. Maybe a little bit quicker but not as smooth. I think the main problem could be someones view on what they think is laggy and what they think isn't. There are people out there who think anything less than 50fps is laggy which is ridiculously smooth or people like me who think anything less than about 25fps is laggy. It would help if the Op replied to this thread to let us know what rom he is running
Im running project X
4.0 sense 4 rom. Before i was running ice cold sandwich ,but that was scary ,bcoz my device all ways frozed during running heavy games.

what rom r u using?
Currently I'm running codename, and before this blindIce, Blindbean and Reaper. I've avoided all sense Roms like the plague. No offense to the devs just don't like sense anymore.

at the moment video playback forces restart, but is still only a test port, blindndumb will probably look at it after he's sorted out to build from source

By the way i got know: ICE DS v.6.0 Rom
Android Version: 4.0.4
Sense: 3.6
Kernel: 3.0.46-Ck1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1567715
And i tried today gangster rio. and it worked way smoother than the other roms. but there is still a bit of irritation lag here and there?
i even overclocked it to 1,5 ghz. the fps raised but. however it's still laggs.
Can someone please help me or give me some advice to run games smooth on a good rom!
By the way sorry for Pretty bad english!
I couldn't realy help you, but i can say I'm playing Asphalt 7 and Temple Run on my DS. I'm uing the sam ROM like you and there are no laggs, crashes or freezes. In case of the other games I could not say anything.
Did you flash FULL_WIPE_DS befor installing ICE_DS? Maybe there is gone some performance?
AOSP ROMs will be better for this case.
Not sure how they will run on JB ROMs, but I had great performance on CM7 a long time ago. Not lag-free, DS hardware isn't capable enough, but manageable.

yes!! same here,, i bought nfs most wanted today,, played one race ,, it was laggy, went on youtube , watched a video of xperia play running the same game with few lags and running like a boss!! then i thought it must be my rom or something,, went again on youtube , watched a video of desire hd running the same game ,, and it was also lagging ,just as mine,, its kinda weird , play have the same specs as compared to our desire s, and 256 mb less ram , still it runs the game smoother,,,,,,,,,

^^^ What he said ^^^ I don't play games on my phone much, but never had a problem either on pure CM7 or on Reaper. The latest games are going to struggle as devs are optimising them for quad-core devices, but that's to be expected.

Firstly, you are playing modern games which are designed for the newer phones - quad-core etc.
Secondly, there have been at least 10 threads this month from people asking for the best ROM for gaming. Try a non-ICS ROM - Reaper, CM7.2, Endymion.
Agree with Simon, but I think a lot of the lag is actually due to sense running in the background. I've noticed lag all all sense roms granted not to the extent to which you describe. Reaper is a lovely rom for gaming though.

[Q] Nexus 5 strange lags

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.

Heavy 2d lag on Parallel Kingdom

Seems like this a quite common problem with the new KitKat version, but I cant play 2d games on my phone without heavy graphic lag, worst is parallel kingdom wich is a game that im crazy addicted to. There is some solutions on the internet regarding this problem (hw overlay thing and the force gpu render on 2d graphic in dev settings) but nothing works.
Ive also written to the dev team behind the game but they claim that the problem is solved and they dont want to provide me with an answer.
Is there anyway I can fix this problem?
I have a Moto G Google Play edition, runs great on every 3d intense game.

Do you mean parallel kingdom AOT? Well i just installed it on my moto g 16 gb retail edition with the latest kitkat from germany and the games runs OK, no visible lags for me, are you rooted or did you unlock your bootloader? if yes, maybe flashing a retail stock rom or a custom rom would help you, maybe its the google play edition rom thats fault

PK has always been slow on android devices.... while on iOS it is buttery smooth. I have contacted the developers about implementing 2D acceleration on Android and posting2 versions of the game on Google Play - one version for new android devices and another one for older devices. They denied it at the time, in 2013.
I have played it on iPad retina, iPhone 4S and it is WAY faster than on Galaxy S4, LG G2, Galaxy Tab Pro, you name it!
Mind you, root police, that the game has been tested on android devices with stock ROMs, unrooted, rooted, and with CM or other modded ROMs. At all times the game has presented a much inferior performance, compared to that on iOS devices.
If anyone knows of a fix for this, please let me know!!! Or send emails to the developers, maybe they will fix it!!
