Here is an Enhanced D3D Driver for our Touch Pro2. Before you install driver run the D3DDemo file from your phone. Extract D3DMDemo.exe and copy it anywhere on your phone (Storage Card is good). Run it and see how slow it runs with the default D3D Driver. Then install At0mAng Enhanced D3D Driver.cab, restart and run the D3DMDemo again and see the difference
Enjoy!
Just to make things clear. I did not develop the driver, it was from the Samsung Omnia and the libgles_CL.dll comes from NuShrike. I have been using it since my TyTN II days, gave it a shot on the Rhodium and it worked. I did not see it in this forum so I cabbed it up (was OEM in my kitchen) and posted it.
The cab file contains two dlls both from the D3DM driver and the correct registry settings for d3dm_ati.dll.
To learn more about this driver and to try newer releases please see this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=496528
There have been a few reports that the drivers from above thread break a couple of things like the G-Sensor with Opera so I am posting back the original file I had up. Strange since I do not have that problem with the latest drivers from the above thread.
It's up to you to decide which drivers you would like to use.
Rocks!
TF3D is realy faster.

Cool...glad it is working on other devices.
Been using this driver since the TyTN II then to Raphael and now on to Rhodium Not sure if it is a good or bad thing that the same driver works on the last 3 devices I have...
Wow! It really worked and the M3D really is faster!
Cheers mate!
-ilari
On the Telus (MSM7600) it went from 0.85 ish FPS to a smooth test. Very dramatic change
Same for me here too
is it really faster?
does it mean, that the video-playback is also better?
TF3D is using OpenGL ES or Direct3D? If it's written for OpenGL ES the new drivers should not have any impact over it. It's only my opinion.
Any ideas?
Just to let you know I also went from 0.75 FPS to about 25 FPS.
Crazy change, just don't notice much difference in TF3D.
what's the difference between this and neo's beta 3d driver pack?

Same opinion. But I cannot see fps in the demo after installing the new driver.
The increase in fps is recognizible high in the demo. The object first is absolutely stuck without the driver. With the driver installed it runs fluidly.
in this demo I have a big boost with this driver !!
Whith games work with that driver? My old quake dont work on my TP2
Will this work on MSM 7201 chipset as well? I don't want to make hardreset again if something will going wrong on my TP1. Thanks.
Edit>
Nevermind,I tried it. Unfortunately no visible change happens on Raphael.
No Change
It made no difference on my Touch Pro 1
I installed it on Touch Pro2 and test runs a lot faster. And also TouchFLO 3D runs more smoothly. I don't know why, but it's really faster. I think TF3D2 uses OpenGL-ES and Direct3D driver can't change it's performance.

Strange I thought it should so I have been using it with my TP1. I never did try the demo though to see if it actually worked.
great great work At0mAng
i have tested in my HD and workly very very well
Difference in the Demo is quite noticeable.
will this driver accelerate need for speed undercover or xtrakt as well?
Seems to work awsome. Thanks.

Tried the latest cab from here:
Update 11: Direct from Chainfire:
=========================
TF3D QVGA - Release #2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430718
Prior to installing the cab, I unzipped the OpenGL ES software drivers from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=121298&d=1223892257
...to the \WINDOWS directory.
The results: TF3D-QVGA installed in probably 10 minutes. Very slow progress at the beginning, but when the bar hit the 50% mark, installation was completed just after one or two more minutes. Startup time of TF3D is quite good, too. Takes about a minute to fire up. The drawbacks: The software 3D driver seems broken on the BA. No textures, but all white surfaces. One can see, though, that the shapes are rendered correctly. The clock on the Home tab flips correctly, messages on the Mail tabs fly in and out like they should etc. Unfortunately rendering is a tad slow, too. Not very smooth, yet no stills either. One can see the animations, but even if the textures were okay, it would be too slow to really enjoy.
Does anyone have an idea where to find suitable OpenGL ES software drivers for the BA?
Cheers.
which rom are you using ?
on my rom installing takes 30min and startup after soft resett takes 30 min, too.
i also get the white textures.
The "old" Helmi WM6 with German language files, which is really a fantastic ROM (always came back to it). Btw, when I tried TF3D, I already had loaded all kinds of stuff on my device (only about 15MB of internal memory free), so I'm really not talking about a virgin install, either.
BA was never designed for 3D graphic the first place, if you guys really like Manilla interface, I strongly suggest try out the Manilla 2D. just an idea.

I know, I know. M2D is great, but I miss the opportunity to view multiple appointments on the home tab.
Go to http://www.ac-s2.com/
Download and install Open GL VGA version (yes!)
Download qvga.zip unzip and replace Gfx folder on your Polaris with the folder in qvga.zip
Voila.
It seems to be smoother transitions, although yet a bit laggy. Or am I just imagining it?
Any response would be nice
Tested it with the previous version but the shadows in coverflow were very crappy! For me it was not faster than the normal qvga version. Is it the same with the new version?
I think you'll need to have the P3D driver for this to work fluently. Anyone test it with that already?
Hi,
I have the 3D drivers. It works fine, but coverflow is still not 100% smooth.
But there is an improvement for sure !

I have just managed to work THPS2 accelerated working at full speed on our's X1 So what you need to do?
1. Get Software version of THPS2
2. Get libgles_cl.dll file from this kaiser theard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415523 and copy it into \Windows directory (unpacked of course)
3. Open directory where you have installed THPS2 and delete orginall file libgles_cl.dll from this directory
4. Edit file TH2_OPT.CFG :
- set RESOLUTION=640x480
- set Quality=High
Save file and close.
5. Run THPS2.exe or THPS2 shortcut in Games and enjoy!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UjgJ2q07WU
Do you also got it to display the IN-game grafics full screen `?

Update:
Dont mind. Got it to work

but that it runs good nice one
Yes, it is really nice playable.

Very nice, just tested it out, works very smoothly, full screen, full speed and the screen rotates to the correct orientation once the HW keyboard is opened.
Using the same file and method you can get Quake mobile to start but it crashes once it starts to load the game files. Any Ideas?

Is this file " libgles_cl.dll " an alternative display driver for the X1, does it give any video and performance increases on any other programs you have tested ?

Yes, I have also managed to run Quake III Arena accelerated version (I have problems with texturing yet, but it maybe problem of config file), and software version with more fps (from 7-8 to 14-15). Also DoomGLES is working now but it is not visable ok on the screen (the screen is moved but I have tested only Doom 1 for now).
where to get software version??
I love it when things keep getting better
<3 the X1
Though, is this really full speed? Is the speed the same on the x51v, how do the gpus compare? And is it the gpu or the cpu slowing it down, could maybe overclocking the cpu give me a speed boost? Anyway it's cool you can map the game to the keyboard aswell. Lovely PC ports
By the way, how about the accelerated version of Stuntcar Extreme, does it work too?

Why don't you spend some time to read the thread first?
Added a forwarder to remap hardcoded CL calls to the Imageon CM dll

In others words, it's a wrapper driver to forward calls to our X1's native API to enable hardware accelation on some games.
BTW, I found X1 is even smoother than my x51v in the game play.

That's interesting as I did the GLES benchmark and ended up with measly 880 points in WVGA and around 990 in VGA while the x51v supposedly gets around 1200. I've even seen someone getting 1290 with a diamond, is such low score normal for the X1 or is there a way to improve it?

I don't have THPS2 software either. I was able to get the accelerated version, but it does not work well as there are no textures in the skate parks. I think there is a software AND hardware version of THPS2, and even when I set the hardware version to use software rendering, it will not load the level.
Would be great to get a test version of THPS2 software/unaccelerated, but alas, WAREZ ARE NOT ALLOWED!
I'm also quite interested in Dutty's new D3D drivers. I don't suppose there is a chance that they will wreck my X1, as it looks like you can uninstall them easily. Also, when deleting a file from \Windows, if that file was in ROM, it should reappear correct? (i.e. I delete the Dutty files that were copied to \Windows, and the originals should take their place)

ive not seen any downsides to these drivers yet.
yes if you "overwrite" a file in rom ghe original remains, so as long as you can delete the replacement then the system will go back to using the original
thank you very much

Hey
i have tested various display drivers with xperia (stock rom) and here's the info i got it .....it might be useful to u to select which driver u wanna install....
i choose these software to check
1.Sktool 4.4.7.1 (benchmark)
2.D3d tool (attachment in omnia D3D.rar)
3.coreplayer (to check vedio FPS)
here's the result:
A. X1 with Stock Drivers(driver name libgles_cm.dll in windows)
Sktool....1st 673
2nd 774
3rd 775
4th 780
5th 781 = 3783/5 =756.6 (took an avg)
FPS........31.550
--------------------------------------------------------------
B. X1 with Samsung Omnia Display Drivers
Sktool....1st 772
2nd 774
3rd 774
4th 769
5th 780 = 3869/5 =773.8 (took an avg)
FPS.......34.875
-------------------------------------------------------------
C. X1 with HTC Diamond display Drivers(driver name libgles_cl.dll in Attachment)
sktool....1st 743
2nd 772
3rd 773
4th 769
5th 766 = 3823/5 =764.6 (took an avg)
FPS.......33.026
So, i think Samsung omnia display drivers is best for x1 between the 3 ....
**needed htc touch hd display driver to test if someone have plz post in this thread**
omnia D3D
i forgot to attachment in 1 st post
Is mere 10% worth the trouble ?
try a true 3d benchmark for 3d drivers.. which is what you've been testing. Sktools bench isn't that good.
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Benchmark/GLBenchmark-Windows-Mobile-OpenGL-ES-CL-33651.shtml
I'll up the wimax, HD and some others if you want (there's the stock htc one and another inside most roms).
Then there's all the Ddraw drivers to test, and the way they interact with the DDI (which is prebuilt into the XIP) for 2d stuff which is what more people are likely to see a benefit from.
heres the 4 ! from the quartz (wimax)
For the Stock ROM test, are you using the R2A10 rom?
yes m using stock rom n ver R1AA017 GENERIC_UK
Moin.
how can i update/install the graphics driver.
Thanks
I believe you just download the cab and run it, then soft reset? Not sure but I also want to try.
i've tried the omnia drivers and there is a slight improvement when loading up the panels and changing how they are laid out. Were you able to get hold of the touch hd drivers as i'm sure i've seen the panels work much smoother on the touch hd
The quartz and Touch HD drivers are pretty identical. I've posted the quartz up above.
i dont really care about d3d too much since no applications (except for panels) that i have installed uses it.
I would kill for some 2d acceleration during regular windows operation, however. as far as i know there is none and probably never will be
whats the touch hd driver called? i have one and would help if i could
The Omnia driver doesn't use the Imageon hardware (since the Omnia doesn't have it). It's completely software-emulated, if anyone was wondering.

Where do you extract the files to? Windows folder?
just installed omnia drivers, there is a speed difference. All Good
Yeah, omnia driver seems faster.
SO, has anyone tested the 3d drivers with GLBenchmark and is willing to post results? I want the best 3d performance I can get for my xperia.
Where do you extract the files to?!! how to instal the driver?
sjoerdexperia said:

You don't. Just extract it on your computer than put the extracted folder on the memory stick. From there, use "File Explorer" or "total commander" from your Xperia to browse through the folder and click the ".exe" Click it once. Even though it may seem it won't load, do NOT click on it again. Just go to the homescreen and wait a while. It will load eventually.
In my opinion, this isn't worth the trouble. It also adds 1500 tracks to the Media Panel... which totally ruins it.. but that is a different story.
whats best for gaming??
Has anybody tried running the new GfxBoost program on their Touch Cruises?
I was wondering if there was an increase in performance and also if it impacted the battery life of the phone.
I tried version 1.0 but my Cruise freezes...
Now im using Neos2007SVG drivers...
I tried version 1.0 service work well but camera no work

Do you notice any speed improvement? 3D or 2D?
version 1.1 works on my polaris with wm6.5
installs ok, SR, process & service works, camera works
now i use MS3 + M2D together and its like it was, after SR graphics works slow then i turn screen off & on and it works fast as it was but i see no improvements,
windows wm6.5 default today plugin works not very smooth as it was,
file explorers (resco and windows explorer) scrolls same speed as it was,
3d games (virtual pool & 3d mines) works same as it was,
igo8 same as it was
so....it works but doesnt improve
edit:
i tried now driver from HERE and its definitely improving file explorer scroll
