Graphics app? - EVO 4G General

I was wondering if there is an app/game to show off the high end graphics in my evo?

Need for speed shift and reckless racing are two good ones to for showing off.
A good free one is called cordy, super smooth and flashy graphics.

All right, ill try them. Thanks.

But it works though and I haven't noticed any inability to play the "high end" games without any problems.

On Sense roms it was unplayable. On Cmod 7, it's not unplayable for me, but it's not smooth either. But this is a good example.

Angry Birds issues..

I downloaded Angry Birds from Getjar since it's not on the market on my Hero. I have a few issues with it. All the graphics don's show, such as the small mountains that are supposed to be brown. They are all white in mine and blend it with the background. It's also extremely choppy, and very rarely does it run smooth. I guess this phone just can't keep up with this simple game.. My friends Droid X plays this game smooth as butter, and all the graphics show.

Correct, hopefully the devs release a lower res version eventually.
Unfortunately I also experience the same problem with some of the textures not loading.
oc710 over clock mybe the reason
My htc magic with CM1.6ROM Could run the game,but can't get full speed.
After i install oc710, the same problem occurred
I would stick with the 1.3.5 version. It's old, but at least it runs smoother on the Hero than the latest one. It slows down here and there, but at least I can enjoy it.

Evo smoothness

What is the biggest reason that the evo isn't "Iphone" smooth? I got to play with a Nexus S at bestbuy a week ago and it really was "Iphone" smooth. Is it fps or something else in the system? Before anyone flames me understand that I love my Evo and would never give it up for the iphone, just a honest and curious question. Thanks in advanced

I heard that the iphone uses the gpu for hardware acceleration of the ui. Android phones don't yet...

I run cm6 on my 0004 evo and it wasn't iPhone smooth on sense, but it is now....thanks cyanogen and team.

It's true; well to be 100% accurate, not all of Android is HW accelerated. Some parts are.
On top of that the iPhone 4 has a PowerVR SGX 535 GPU which is twice as fast as the EVO's Adreno 200 GPU. For comparison, the Nexus S has the better PowerVR SGX 540 GPU (twice as fast as the 535 in the iPhone 4) but iOS's hardware acceleration still makes the UI smoother than the Nexus S with 2.3. It's rumored that Honeycomb will bring full HW acceleration and that should bring it to iOS/WP7 level smoothness for the GPUs it will support.

I don't understand, they wanted money for what exactly? Isn't having HW accel. on in the first place even a better selling point than nothing?
Just install CM6 for super silky smoothness.

I don't know, could be a number of reasons. Android was first influenced by the blackberry OS and started changing it to be more iOS like once the iPhone was released. Could be that its taken this long to catch up to something which was lower in priority. Maybe it's because there are tons of GPUs on Android phones and its hard to support them all. A lot of the early Android phones were from HTC (which Google used to build the platform - G1, Ion, and only comparably, the N1) and had some pretty crap GPUs, maybe that held it back. Most likely it was a combination of these.

IPhone might be smooth but the lack of REAL push notifications, lack of TRUE multitasking killed it for me but that was back when I had one. Don't know if its still the same lol but its overrated for sure if you ask me.

Yeah I hope so.
So the bottom line for the UI to be smooth is hardware acceleration.... which is expected to be included in Android 3.0?

I don't disagree with you at all, but this thread is about the smoothness, not all the other features.

my girl has an iphone. i'd say i can make a pretty accurate comparison, being able to hold one in each hand at the same time.
don't get all butthurt because someone is saying you're wrong.
I'm not butthurt at all. I should have said iPhone4, because that is what I was referring to. If she has an older iPhone then I would say yes, the EVO *can be* smoother. But If she has an iPhone4, then you need to get your eyes checked.

[OFFTOPIC] Exynos 3D demo @1080p / 60fps

Its hardly breaking a sweat

Just can say : WOWEEEEHHHH !
A generic looking Starfox demo? I am still skeptical about the grafix race on smartphones. It's getting caught in the same mire as the PC. Tech demos that don't mean anything beyond fps counters and nerd bragging rights. The games that people actually play, like Magicka and Minecraft, can work on ancient hardware, not to mention WoW. As long as it helps multimedia use, UI acceleration, and power consumption, it is still justified. But beyond that when the focus is purely 3D gaming and the battery life goes to hell and the phone turns into a hand toaster, hopefully they will reel it in and stay pragmatic.

They've upped the graphical features since Cataclysm. Water physics/splashes are now in the game, for example.

What happened to Skies Of Glory?

Just wondering if there were any other SOG fans in here. It used to be such a great game. I just recently downloaded it again on Google play and now it doesn't work and the reloaded version doesn't work. Kinda sucks as it was as a great detailed WWII flight combat game. I tried some of the others and they just weren't the same. I'm not really into WWI games as much. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions as to a good replacement or how they stop that game free music FC on devices? Thanks!

I played SoG from the beginning of its release. As far as the Nexus 7 goes, it has never worked on it. The reason is that it is not compatible with the tegra 3, which is what we have for a graphics chip. It would require a major overhaul, and that will never happen. And as far as I can tell, it wont run on any android running 4.1.x or higher. Yes, it is a great game. But, it was released in December of 2009, and never got a good update to keep up with androids advancing versions.

Well thanks for the info. I thought I read somewhere about the Android 4.1.X or higher thing.. That's a shame. Have you found anything that satisfied that genre for you? I just haven't found it yet. Sky Gamblers is very similar but it's all WWI and that kinda limits the awesomeness.. Lol

No, I have found nothing of that genre to replace it for me. I didnt really like RoG either. D-pad games annoy me on devices with a full gyroscope. SoG was a perfect platform for control. Gyro and rudders.

I don't remember. I had installed on my GS2 back in the day and just recently thought "Hey that would be fun to play again" lol. These jet games suck too by the way.. Lol. Gosh makes me sad. I guess I could play the WWI games. The sad thing is that there are games out there that seem fun just mostly multi player online. I like the campaign modes. I used to have this one simulator back on pc that had this AWESOME mission were you had to protect a bunch of B-52's from the dang Germans.. Lol it was fun about 30,000 feet up planes everywhere bombs falling... Lol. Loved it.
