Tegra 3 performance problems..

Hi all. Looked around a bit and couldn't find an answer so here goes..
I'm a HEAVY gamer and since my phone is the nicest thing I own, I primarily use it.
I upgraded to my lg 4x hd from my motorola atrix mb860, and I saw a few major differences. Namely, lag. I could play nova 3, modern combat 3, mass effect infiltrator, n64 games etc without getting any more than a little warm on the atrix, and with no more than the occasional hiccup of lag. But with the 4x, I have periods of stuttering or hanging, and the back will get alarmingly hot. My questions are these; why does my tegra3 4x lag so bad compared to my tegra2 atrix? Is it possible to emulate tegra2 so I won't have these problems? Or even to force the smaller 800x480 res on the big 4x, so it'll have less pixels to move around? If no to these, what can I do to fix it?

I'd like to add that rooting, unlocking bootloader, etc won't be a problem.

Tested on stock, zaiben rom, and every werewolf build up to 5, cm official and nightly on the 4x. Still the same.

C'mon, 107 views but nothing to say?
Also, now tested on zaiben rom, slim bean, official/nightly cm, and the latest iodak, werewolf, eternity, and Optimus prime kernels as of June 25. With ANY improvements came vicious heat and battery drain. I think that if our devs could accomplish what I proposed, we'd have insane battery life and graphics performance, at only the cost of some tegra effects and a couple hundred pixels too fine for our eyes to see.

Tested on all ROMs by demitris, all versions of optimus prime, and currently with EPRJ 4.3, which is the best so far. Cmon, folks, help a guy out.

I've abandoned the 4x for a note 2. I just couldn't deal with the heat and performance problems of tegra 3

toshiba excite pro (love it)

Hey,
Must say this tablet is amazing,, screen is crisp, tegra 4 doesnt seem to really perform much different but heh the tegra 3 doesnt have to hit this res... but trust me I work for a company with a fruit as a logo and this blows all there tablets out the water//

I hope Toshiba gets a hit with their new tablets. Not an iPad hater, just prefer competition for the consumers to choose from.

How warm does it run? Roughly how long is the battery life?

Ive read that the display isn't as sharp as nexus 10's ones because oft the white subpixels. Could you pls tell sth about it? +heat & +battery

About the screen not true imo, but about the heat part, yes it heats like a mofo when in full speed mode. When in battery saving mode it caps the cpu frequency to 1.0 and almost no heat, when its not 1.8 and heats like an oven.

How about the battery?

As they promised it would behave.

I'm still looking for this tablet in a retail store so that I can check it out in person. Can't seem to find anyone else selling it besides Best Buy (online only) and a few third party vendors on Amazon.

To me, Toshiba excite pro is between all tables the best!

Well, these are my impressions:
The screen is very good
The bluetooth keyboard stand is incredibly good design. Never seen better. This magnet stuff is nicely flexible and stable as well. does work well having it on the lap like a netbook.
The performance with the stock ROM is incredibly BAD. I've got frequent lags, especially in the browser, but also when waking the device and sometimes without an apperant cause. And the most incredible thing is that this device is supposed to work on a 1.8GHz quad core - how is such a bad performance possible with such a monster processor?!

for me its the fastest Tablet i have ever seen. it gets warm...yes. But thats probably because it is really fast. I had an transformer prime before and this is considerably faster. (I use the aosp browser). display is sharp and crisp. not as good as my htc one but also really good.
Problems:
1. WLAN Connection is unstable (there is an Update but currently only in the us)
2. Sometimes it just wont respond to anything. Hard Restart is the only solution. (same here update should be available)
3. Root would be nice
4. would be great if some skilled user would take a deeper look...

I having excite pro almost week and did not found any fault so far.
WiFi work spotless and reconnect in matter of second (from standby or from deep sleep)
10" Screen whit light sensor is one the best on market for me.
Battery life is pretty good(five to six hours watching movies from single charge) and sound one the best I heard on tablet.
Some apps don't work well like opera browser (crashing all times) but Firefox works fine.
Abbot heat I not playing games on it but watching movies,you tube and browsing internet, no heat whats so ever (not using battery saving mode because browsing can be glitchy).
Not latest android installed on it but jelly bean 4.2.1 is pretty good and Toshiba did nice touch with apps winch almost all can be disabled inducing Toshiba one.

It looks interesting, I didn't know about them. Maybe I will look for further information.

Is there a user forum anywhere for this device?
Picked one up like so many others from Amazon for £170 knowing there would be no root option but satisfied to use it primarily for media playback.
Ive tried a couple of media files on it since arrival this morning and playback on some is a little stuttery using the Tosh's own media player and BSPLAYER. Can anyone recommend one capable of playing AVI with AC3 / MKV and x264 please.
Thanks

Just ordered one. ...
Hope its as good as u guys make out! !

Also have u done firmware update? 4.3 update?

I was on 4.3 got bsplayer working properly in the end but had a look at mx as well and that seemed ok too. Thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay getting back.

No worries.
My only major problem is the sound which is on the quiet side.
I'm hoping someone has a fix for that.

Will have to check my version but Bsplayer volume goes up to 200% when using my finger on the screen where using the volume rocker it only goes up to 70%.
Would be nice to have somewhere us excite pro users could call our own.
If we did I would be able to ask questions like
1 - Is Angry Birds Go crashing for anybody else?
2 - What launchers is everyone using?
3 - What browser is everyone using as chrome seems a little clunky?
1 is now fixed following recent upgrade

This is an excellent device for the cost excellent. ..
Except sound. It's just not loud enough. Sound is excellent just not loud enough

I too have one, love it but the lack of root is frustrating. However, I have discovered that most of the updated Google apps can be sideloaded. This morning I updated the stock email Client to the one that ships with KitKat and it works flawlessly with the new exchange services. Going to look at seeing if anything else can be taken across.
Ran quadrant on my rooted Asus Memo pad and the Tosh and the Tosh scored double and more. The only area it is weaker in is 3d graphics which does surprise me.

MTL09 B143 - Browsing/Fb struggles and stutters..

Hi, I've tried several browsers, there's always stuttering and lag, same for Facebook.
My zenfone 6 [Duak core intel] was so much more smooth, like butter.
Other interfaces interestingly are absolutely find, just browsing sucks
I've tried going from smart to normal, no difference..
Pls help.

Suffer from exactly the same!

I had the same issue and followed the suggestion in your quoted thread and I've been scrolling like butter ever since. Had it on Normal for about 4 days now and there's no noticeable difference in battery consumption either

I switched it to the normal mode but it made only a little difference, I really miss my old LG G2, was a good boy

You guys need to use better browser.
This thread was posted a whilst ago.
Enjoy
Ps - ucbrowser hd ftw!

OK guys I did the following to greatly improve chrome Browsing:
-disable Tapatalk and or TalkBack, whatever its called
- disable. Motion app, not sure what it does but yea.
- increase chrome tilesize to 512, Google for instructions.
- force gpu rendering.
It's considerably better but scrolling isn't buttery. Chrome
lags due to Google ads and JavaScript. To get buttery smooth scrolling, you have to disable JavaScript but plenty of sites are broken that way. Chrome JavaScript engine is just isn't optimised for us, while googling I saw same complaints on galaxy s6 users! So this is case of Huawei and Samsung not optimising their drivers etc. This is in no way a hardware or weaker gpu issue. This is just poor implementation of Android by Huawei.
- I stopped using chrome and am using UC browser, (not HD or any other version) its super smooth.
Fb is still meh. Hoping for inputs regarding fb.

I've MT7-TL10 I never got lags when I'm browsing
very smooth scrolling
Using Google chrome, firefox, and the default one

A 615 phone that ISNT laggy

I've been really dissapointed by the Mi4i. Its a mostly all round, fantastic phone. But, I just can't get used to the subpar performance. This got me thinking, is the processor really to blame or is it poorly optimized software.....
Well, just check out this video of the Moto X play. Same specs pretty much, but buttery smooth. Also in a recent Reddit AMA, the Moto X play is said to barely heat up atall. Pretty sure Motorola have worked some magic on the software front and I'm wondering if it'll be possible to use bits from its kernel source (When released) to improve our experience.

I so hope this phone gets updated soon! So close to perfection....

Use the xiaomi europe 5.8.6 rom..it muh better..smooth, faster, better battery life
Sent from my Mi 4i using XDA Free mobile app

mi4i lag problem is because of the throttle and hotplug kicks in way too early .
just adjust / remove them and you won't have lag problem anymore. (modify thermal config )
as for the heat, I'm also interested on moto x play "no heat" claim, we'll see in more reviews later ..
but you can try to set cpu runs at 533/499 interactive . (or at least lower than default 960/800 )
all above works nice in miui

so, basicly is all come from the software?

So mate 8 or lg v10???soo confused any suggestions???

I wanna to buy new phone but I am really confused
I had p8max in was great
I had note 5 was great but much faster and smooth
Is mate 8 really fast and smooth ? Or lg v10 is faster ??
I need phone runs smooth like butter

I had the same two to choose from, I went with Mate 8.
However if you want a good camera, then you must go for the LG but i think the Mate is better in other aspects.

I looked at the LG V10 and the Mate 8 - I went for the Mate at as it has a better frequency range in the UK.
It is amazingly fast (coming from a one plus one) - Not having an apps folder is a little odd but ok
I have only found one actual problme so far - I can't figure out how NFC works!

Don't personally have it yet.
From friends and such my feedback is that it is bloody fast and smooth. CPU is also really good.
Gaming sometimes has some issues for some people but only on demanding games which im sure isnt device related but game related (works perfectly for others for all games)
Also the camera issue you mentioned has been improved already, still not great though, but rest assure they are trying very hard at the moment to get that fixed.

No worries, the main thing i'm sure you will join most of us in is waiting for a root confirmation.
Which if you are interested, keep an eye out HERE AT THIS OTHER XDA FORUM POST as it will be the first place to find out most likely.
