[Q] need an advice about kitkat kernels ! - Sony Xperia L

i recently switched to kitkat roms and i have tried AOKP, CM11 (both official and fxp340) i am experiencing a massive change in the battery life, no memory full issue, it's light as well .. there is one major problem though, i like playing games like asphalt 8, nfs mw, shadowgun , mw etc but the thing is that these games are lagging a lot_i have tried stock, thunderzap, phantom kernel so far and none of them are working for me .. i have tried overclocking in thunderzap/phantom kernel, switching to performance, removing the the gpu undervolt setting but still no luck.
what should i do to play games without lag on cm11/aokp because i dont wanna go back to stock jellybean rom (which was ofcourse flawless when it comes to gaming)
please help !

anyone ?

Anyone else having problems with games on jelly bean?

So far something very strange happens with 3 games. The touchscreen and capacitive buttons stop responding altogether and I have to repeatedly turn on off the screen and somehow get to the homescreen. After that I have to go into running services and kill the game to get the phone working. But even then it's very slow and only a reboot fixes it. It's not a problem with all games but currently asphalt 6, oscura and riptide GP are giving me this problem.
All 3 games were running fine in ICS but not after updating to jelly bean. I am running rooted stock 4.1.1. Anyone else having these problems?
Eh it seems like the problem is fixed in 2 games by just reinstalling them.
Gonna try asphalt 6 now.
Problem still with asphalt 6. Please can someone report on asphalt 6? I suppose I should reinstall the data as well but it takes so much time and not sure if that would help.
they probably didn't make the game compatible with jellybean yet. I know when I first switched to ICS there were alot of games that wouldn't work because they werent compatible with ICS. I know a game called "the world of magic" wouldn't work with ICS at first. But it works fine now.
maybe you have to wait and see if that game gets an update
same problem for me with Ski Safari

Also for me: Asphalt 6 doesn't work on JB, while it had no problem with ICS. Same after reinstalling the game and downloading the data.Gotta wait for updates, I think. :crying:

Issues with games and Dolphin browser
I am having issues with several games on my Transformer Prime Jelly Bean. The high end games will just shut down, the screen calibration is off and Dolphin will shut down after a few minutes or refuse to load pages. A restart seems to restart the process. I am using the Black Bean 2 ROM.

[Q] Real Racing 3

Hi,
I tested RR3 on TF101 with CM10.1 but that's lag a lot.
Is it possible to explain how to configure CM10 to avoid this lags ?
Thanks
I haven't used CM10, but if you can overclock try that first. Check my sig for a free app to do it.
You can overclock natively in CM10, it's in performance settings, no app needed.
Comments on Play store say the last updated caused the lag, I have it on EOS4 too
The update is causing lag.
Hope it clears your doubt.
I been playing RR3 on my modded stock rom tf101 and it didn't lag at all...ran perfect along with NFS most wanted...idk but seems to me that these roms y'all have seems to help smoothness and newness of your tf101 but if nothing is wrong then no need to fix or use different ROMs causing your tab to think differently and run harder...but that's just my opinion on this tab as I'm a heavy customizer on other phones...try the touch booster
sent accidentally from my gangsta ASUS Transformer
I am not having issues play RR3 with my TF rooted running only the stock ROM. It would be cool if the mirrors worked though.

Thanks for the info.
Other question : The o/c to 1500 mhz changes something in the game ?
Chainfire works with cm10 ?
Is it something to change in the configuration of cm10 ?
Thanks for your replies :good:
I upgraded but it's always lagging.
Any solutions ? Other games works smoothly (wildbloods, nfs, ...)
I know I am a noob. (I watched the video)
I rooted my tf101 yesterday (CM10.1 nightlies ROM) and now I was trying to install RR3.
The problem that I have is that I cannot install this game.
Device is not compatible.
I know I am doing something wrong and I searched this forum.
Can someone send me in the right direction?

I downloaded the APK over on the Nexus 7 forum & that was a post at the beginning of the month. I don't know if there is an updated version or not. If there is I would like to try it. There is a MOD to the graphics setting to make the mirrors work. I did try it & the game was almost unplayable. I reverted back to the original setting. I am rooted but completely stock & the game is really smooth with the normal settings.

[Q] Stability and Speed of ICS ROMs

Hi,
I've tested some ICS Roms:
- CM10 Nightly IODAK ROM of 5th May 2013 (Current)
- OptimusRS Xperia
- GuilleFS
- Stock v30b AT&T rom
And, after using it for a while Im always having the same problem.
Its seems speedy at starting and gets slowing down in a while. That seems it is a RAM problem, cause Im used to OC the phone to 1,2~>1,3 Ghz, and after killing apps it will get speedy for a while. All we know that its useless killing apps cause Android will be opening it.
Also Im used to uninstall all unneeded apps, besides i control service events with autostarts app.
Before I changed to ICS I had Prometheus Rom and it was smooth and did not have this probs.
The main question, wich is your faster ICS rom for your opinion, please dont tell me about roms with constant FC and Reboots like GuilleFS..
Have a look at zeppelinrox's .jar patching scripts in android general dev/hacking section. It has made my phone run much more smooth. It helps with the app killing, sound/volumes are consistent, etc. Works on any rom apparently...

[Q] HTC Sensation laging extremely on AOSP/CM/MIUI(AOSP) ROMS

Guys, I am quite a flashomaniac. I usually install every single ROMs released in forums. But recently i am getting some serious lag issues on my phone.
After installing Sense ROMs(Sense 3.6 ICS, Sense 4.1 ICS or Sense 4+ JB 4.1) my phone performs perfectly without lag(with normal usage, nothing heavy).
But these ROMs being so large in size and some HTC bloat, and my hatred for sense, i want to use AOSP roms. But when I install AOSP/CM(10/10.1) roms, my phone lags like f**k after installing 2-3 apps(usually some themes, viber and Line) and using them. I always wipe my partitions and format my sdcard regularly. Still facing same lags. I try running my CPU at max frequency(my phone's chip supports only to 1728 GHz) and at performance governer. Still those lags remain.
I installed whole firmware package from latest HTC RUU too, still have same issues.
Does anyone have any idea about this?

if there are any apps that you don't need and consumes ram use app quarantine from play store to disable them
see then how it goes

I mentioned my basic apps. I see lags after installing those apps only. And I use Greenify too.
Yesterday i thought of trying to limit background processes to 2(from dev settings) and its working okay, but at the cost of having almost no-multitasking.

Yea but the device has magnetomer and accelometer isnt there a way to virtualize that gyroscope? And you say that the game lags?

For the lags I suggest you to use it with "Android Open Source Project [AOSP+RRO] " MM Rom! Try to greenify background apps and it will work more smoothly!

It actually has a gyroscope, I can't say what the exact issue is for the app.

I don't think that Xperia L has a gyroscope. It only has an accelerometer and the VR doesn't work with that.
Anyway the game lags massively for me as well, after playing for a bit it lags so much it's barely playable... sometimes it freezes completely.. i am currently using the CM 12.1, i wonder if the game runs better on the CM13, can anyone attest to that?

Yeah it doesn't but I remember when I was using 4.2.2 the AR effect was there ported for the camera working awesomely! I think the app or the camera app doesn't have right camera libs!
Like I said before CM13 RRO with greenify you may able to run it much better!

I experienced those lags using RR5.7.0 (which basically is CM13).

I am using the latest Resurrection Remix. As long as I don't do AR, it's usually not too bad. Just need to keep it plugged in or use an external battery booster. Thing just absolutely hammers the GPS.
A main part of it is I have no idea of knowing how much of it is down to how well the L runs PoGo, and how much is just the sheer popularity of the game and the strain it puts on the servers.

On mine works fine. I use AOSP+PRO rom and greenify(Thanks to @Rockmins ) and it works fine, not much lags at all, the game has frozen only 2 times and i think its because of the servers, but the battery drain from the game is big and AR doesn`t work. Try to install it from apk mirror, not google play and you need to be running android 4.4+ on stock rom it won`t work.

Try to Flash ZDkernel with this same Rom (also with ZD kernel control app make sure to overclock it to 1.5ghz , use smartmax governor and tripndroid as I/O Scheduler) ! And using greenify hibernate all other network using apps!. :good:

Just visit apkmirror.com, search for pokemon go, download apk, put file on your internal storage. you should also install es file explorer from google play first., then find your apk and install

Hi,
I'm using CM 12.1 (gapps 5.1.1). Pokémon Go used to lag a lot and freeze after some minutes. Every time it happened, I had to pull off the battery and start the phone again. I solved the problem installing ROEHSOFT RAMEXPANDER. I have a 32 GB Micro SD Card, so I have plenty of space to share with memory swapping. The game didn't freeze anymore, but the lagging was still there. It was annoying.
Then I flashed Thunderzap 4.16 kernel so as to control CPU, I/O scheduller etc. After flashing Thunderzap, I felt as if the phone itself got a little bit slower, even with the possibility to overclock the CPU to 1.7 GHz. I haven't found out yet an optimal setting to CPU governor, I/O schedduller and readahead size. The best I could do was "On Demand", BFQ (or Tripndroid) and 16384 kb, respectively. Even using this config, Pokémon Go still lags a lot. Sometimes is playable, sometimes not. And don't even think about battling... When there is a lot of graphic demand, the performance is awful.
Well, it's needless to say that Xperia L has a small internal memory and storage and all new apps you may want to install will "eat" a great deal of it. I created a second primary partition on my SD Card and installed Link2SD so I could move big "system apps" such as Chrome, Maps etc. Anyway, as expected, the phone is slow and even trying Greenify, it isn't getting much better. A lot of apps crash unexpectedly.
Does anybody know if there is a better setting I could use with CM 12.1 so the phone could run more smoothly? Or the better option is really flashing AOSP-RRO (which I haven't tried out yet)?
(P.s.: I HATE when I find a new Pokémon and the game crashes... ¬¬)

Sometimes making the phone work on 1.7ghz can bring lag to the game(and it's not a good frequency for the XL to operate in also).I'm sorry I cannot comment on how to make it good on Lollipop Roms cause I haven't downgraded from Marshmallow. If you are moving to RRO I suggest you to use ZD kernel (and ZD app) and prepare to sacrifice some of the internal storage for free space(Gapps Pico).

Thanks for the hint.
Yeah, 1.7 GHz it's too much for XL. I keep it at 1.5 GHz. I've run a few tests and the best setting I could come up with was CPU governor Interactive (or Intlliactive), I/O Scheduller Deadline with 2.048 kB of Read Ahead. I don't like Deadline scheduller, but for PoGo, it performs well. And with less drive cache also the game runs better. With this config XL is running more smoothly.
About the Gapps, when I first flashed the Gapps 5.1.1, I end up removing all the Google junk I didn't want. Anyway, I'll keep CM 12.1 for a while and I'll do a little more of "user experience". When I change my ROM, I'll let you know.
Guys, I tested for a few days the AOSP-RRO ROM and didn't like it. For playing Pokémon Go only, I have to say that it's great, but I didn't like the other options and features that the ROM gave me.
Now I'm using CM12.1 with PICO GAPPs (5.1.1). It made the whole difference. I keep using all the other apps that I suggested above to make the performance better.
Pokémon Go runs smoothly now with a few lags. And the phone also is working smoothly.
