PPSSPP emulator slow performance after Marshmallow update Galaxy S6 - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
So I used to run ppsspp(psp emulator ) on my galaxy s6 and it ran nearly full speed all the time,but after updating to Marshmallow the performance took a huge hit .I'm getting 12 fps in God of war while I used to get like 40-50 fps on lollipop .
If anyone know why is that or if there's anyway to get the performance back that would be great . thanks in advance .

Same here. Even antutu shows 47k scores compared to 80k on lollipop.

I switched to adam kernel just to see if maybe samsung did something in the kernel that cripples performance to save battery but there was no difference . I don't know what may cause this but everything else is smooth ,really thinking about switching back to xtrestolite if I dont find a way to fix this .

do u guys use wireless joypad or on screen controls

Mini-Review The Dark Knight Rises HD video

Hello all!
Here is my mini review of the game.
So the game is great...outstanding graphics etc. Things that need to be fixed...Performance. It is laggy and not only on the Note.
So if it lags on the GS3 then I expect an update to fix it soon...or at least I hope :laugh:
Also, it wouldn't hurt if people actually moved their mouths during cut scenes!
Anyways, I hope you enjoy it.
Dont forget to watch in HD
The sixaxis touch profile is attached to the post as well. Stock DPI.

ive got this game on my gnote using the miui rom but its extremely laggy even if im oerclocked to 1.6 Ghz
MIUI is based on CM9/AOKP not Samsung ROMs correct?
If so, that is normal. Currently those roms cannot match the speed of Samsung ones specially since the kernal I am using has an overclocked GPU.
I am a CM9 fan from my Captivate days but for the NOTE, it is still not on par sadly.
Running 4.0.4 Classic rom with Notecore v7 EX
This game lags terribly and heats up the phone so much near the camera area, its crazy...
Tested it out on my wives Ipad 2 and it runs like a dream, looks better and also sits in multitask area and opens again no problem, why the hell with a 1.6mhz dual core super machine can we not get it to run anywhere near as good as bloomin god I hate apple, but they always get it right
Is not optimized for android. Check the GS3 having the same lag. If that one with a quad core and faster GPU cannot handle it then you know is the game. I hope Gameloft fixes it soon though as the lag does take away from the fun :\
my CPU is ocd to 1.6 and GPU to 400mhz (notecore v7, cleanote 3.1 rom), still laggy as hell. spent the last hour to tweak the setting using chainfire 3d, trying different plugins. and it seems better, but maybe its just a placebo effect.
def, need an update for performance...
I dont even try with chainfire. For now, Notecore is as good as it gets. The only thing that made me smile was seeing the GS3 with the same issues...a little bit of hope I mean, it still plays fine but I rather wait and play it better...hopefully.
To be honest even my newly updated Lets Golf 3 lags like hell, even though im OC'd to 1.6 with Notecore, I suppose its down to the shear size of the screen the graphics are having to push too.
Not sure these huge 3D games are ever going to run well on our notes
Nova 3 , Mass Effect 3 , Real Racing 2, etc..all run super smooth. Have you tried those?
Also, is screen resolution not size that matters.
What ROM you using?
Sent from a galaxy note far far away
Clean Note latest.
Aha, used to use clean note, was fantastic, will return to it
Sent from a galaxy note far far away
Sweet. Post back if you can, to see if you got some improvement.
Tried Cleanote 3.1 and Classic also tried stock ICS and GB still all lag pretty bad...
Then I stumbled across this rom
AniDroid-N7000 ICS ROM
This game certainly runs the smoothest, with a few lags but not as bad as the others i have tried, also tested Lets golf and it runs superbly smooth, not sure what he has done with this ROM, but it works for me.

agreed. what dev's do is just port the game over to android instead of starting from scratch thus giving android devices a bad name if the game does not properly run on android platforms. A quad core SIII should be able to handle this game with no lags or whatsoever. The galaxy note is not far behind the SIII so we should be able to play the game smoothly, a few fps drops is acceptable

Did you try the OCed kernel with Cleannote ?
I have tried that ROM you mentioned and the performance was not close to CleanNote with the OCed kernel in any of the highend games I tried before.
Its weird I tried Cleanote last night with OC Notecore EX ver 7 and this game ran exactly the same as when I tried it with Classic ROM with the same Notecore.
Now this morning i am testing AniDroid-N7000 ICS ROM and my findings are very much better, cant explain why, would love to know. I can actually play this game now and enjoy it, Ok its not quite as smooth and nice as the IPAD version but then thats not our Notes fault I guess, its down to the production of the game on Android, would love to hear others experiences with other roms.
Another point with Dead Trigger I was finding graphics set to high I would occasionally get screen freezes, but with the AniDroid rom it runs smooth, not had a screen freeze.
That is very odd indeed. I just played Dead Trigger for a while yesterday with the very high settings (Tegra 3) without a hiccup. In fact, that will be my next video
Gotta love how everyone's experience can be so different even with the same phones.
What OC settings do you use ?
I just leave Notecore defaults. Sometimes change to pegasusq maybe but everything else I leave as default for the OC kernel.

How is your internet connection? This can drastically affect the games speed & smoothness. Try standing/sitting right at the router for a bit. See what happens. If that helps see if a wireless extender is in the offing. I got one for $15 shipped on eBay.
How fast is your internet? Cable can be a drag in a crowded neighborhood.
Also, if you have root, try uninstalling the Acer bloatware w/ Root App Delete or similar. Most of the Acer apps are duplicates of the Android ones anyways. Disable the Acer Ring too.
oc kernal for 10.1.2+, ?
Somewhere I read that JB/cm10.1.+ on the a700 has some extra hardware layers,
I think that slows ya down.
I wonder what the fps would of be on ICS

What do u mean with this kernel?
Would it be possible that someone will type how to install stock kernel?
Since kernel is only for stock roms im not able to install custom rom with it.
And btw Am I wrong becouse of feeling that this tablet is not so good for gaming?
Also i would like u to ask if the nexus 10 would be better for gaming?
I would be gr8full for fast replay.
Looking forward for answers

Nah . It is not the Internet fault. i have tested game on many net connections
Kiteman kernel v4.1 works with cm10.1.2 stable
A700 is not praised for its gpu , and slightly funky screen size.
I got one to only mess with cm10.1
The nexus 10 should be better with extra mem and better gpu.
My antutu gpu score is 1878

Ok so now i just need to install cm in the same way as they type in its guide and everything will work?
Can't say everything will work,
just saying there is a custom kernel available for cm10.1
Need to load it after loading rom.
I'm not sure it will help your fps issue much
What is your antutu gpu score?

[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:

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

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.

Sammy throttling S7 way too much

Just read a review for G5, while its not my cup of tea it does wipe the floor with s7 in gaming due to less throttling and better coding.
http://www.techspot.com/review/1175-lg-g5/page4.html
It just super annoying
I think the solution will arrive when there is a custom kernel available. Then you will be able to choose which governor to use.
I think we won't have to wait too much...

They just found the one benchmark where the G5 is actually good and build an article around it. I have an xbox one and a ps4 so I couldn't care less about the s7 edge throttling my freecell. Have you even tried the G5? It is fast, the camera is great and that's it. I bought one on Thursday and posted it on Kijiji on Tuesday.
Sent from my SM-G935W8 everything stock...
the point is the Note 5 was the perfect gaming device for me, it the only phone that rank tekken 6 at 60fps on QHD resolution and never get too hot, fps didn't drop at all!!!
After 6.0.1 update it all went to hell, same with S7 and the S7 is capable of much more.
Fake for me because I had z5 and g5 and this device was hotter then s7 edge check YouTube g5 going to 46 Celsius degree s7 edge max to 40 and throttling is bigger on g5
Exynos on pe9
First run 32k I basemark x on hight
Second run : 18k
3 run: 26 k
4 run 32k
5 run 32k
6 run 32k
7.8.8.10 run 32 k
On outside with auto brightest
Sooo yeah phone was cool maybe 35 Celsius
benchmarks means nothing, test it in real games. it barely plays tekken dark resurrection and stutter endlessly, if ppsspp not crashing due to samsung stupid driver error, on Note 5 it works 60 fps ALL THE TIME!!!
All until sammy 6.0.1, that update ruined gaming for me on both devices.
I fix my problem with need for speed with bad fps.
Try this: open game tuner (instal it if dont have it)
Go to setings and then to aplication category. Search for your game and select that is not a game.
Then try again and see 60fps+

This trick will also prevent it from changing screen modes.
I think that made the trick that I hopelessly waited for so long, thank you, I will try it more to obtain a conclusive result but, currently my problems seem to have gone
Didn't notice any difference in games like Temple Run Oz - a game which used to run fluently with highest settings on a Nexus 2013... It's unplayable, regardless if set as game or not.
Changing to governor to performance temporarely fixes the problem completely though.

As another poster said, it doesnt work.
Marvel Champions still drops down to 30fps lock pretty damn quickly, killing the fluidity of it.
Looking like custom kernels are the only way to fix this mess that Samsung have created.

There is no need for a custom kernel. You can just disable GameMode with Package Disabler Pro.

it's not working for everyone, i disabled it and it didn't help at all, my games are cpu intensive and GPU intensive, but ran perfect on Note 5 before 6.0.1, there is no hope, samsung never gonna fix it.

Did nothing sadly.
Custom kernel seemed to just make it look like 30fps on crack (responsiveness of 60fps, with judder of 30fps).

Report it to Samsung if you haven't yet. I hope they're aware of this issue already though, and this is (luckily) a pure software issue though, so no need to freak out

i reported, posted two different video's on youtube, went through several sammy channels, and they said they will forward it further... but tbh nothing will happen.
I did the same with Note 5 on 21 Feb, when it got 6.0.1 and performance in games were poor, very very poor, going back to 5.1.1 made it perfect again, again samsung will never care for it.
its killing me on marvel contest of champions. thiking about returning the damn phone and that sucks... otherwise i love it but if u spend an hour a day or more gaming it becomes unbearable

that true, i wouldn't advise gaming on S7, it pure crap at that, on software level, at least with root u can make it managable, idk how sammy fail so hard at a simple task...
You actually need a custom kernel, set big cores to blu_active governor and everything works at 60fps
ondemand seems to do the trick too, but heck we need to root for this.
