[Q]Game Dungeon Defenders

This game runs very slow on my evo. I use sprintlovers rom. so, what should i do ?

Try using cm7 and flashing savage zen kernel and overclocking to about 1130ghz. It ran pretty cool for me.

Dude overclocking is safe you must be pretty new at this. Well there's diff kernels you could flash over your current SENSE sprint lovers rom to give it more kick to play your game. That game requires really high end phones with better gpu's. Give your evo that extra boost man for games like that.

Theres also a slider in the options to decrease the gfx a little and make it much more playable as well.

in sum, yes, it can be done, and can be safe, if done right, but the risks are possibly not worth the %10-20 "performance increase". for me, battery drain, overheating, not worth it. but like DD mentioned first, perhaps better to just flash a AOSP based rom, something that's going to be faster "just because" then to force the CPU to work harder.

The Evo's gpu (Adreno 200) is underpowered. That's why you don't see it on the recommended list. They are suggesting at least Andreno 205 which include G2, DesireHD, even the Evo Shift. I've had this game too and tried overclocking, but it's just gpu limited. There's no difference. Don't get me wrong the game will run, but I don't see it playable at 20 fps IMO. I'm gonna save this game for my next device. I'm a bit disappointed too.

Samsung Galaxy s4 Overclock?

hello guys my question is ... im goign to get a S4 soon... but i want to know if the CPu can overclock? im goign to get the Quad-Core Version cuz the International Version is to expensive.. so i want to know if this NEW S600 CPU will be Overclockable? like the CPU of the Droid DNA?

Why would you want to do so? It's fast enough as it is. But to answer your question yes. When you can do it. No idea.

It will be for sure possible but remember that the device already throttles on stock speed.

Seriously guys. No matter how much we clock our s4's. We know that the real life result is actually what matters. I am not very happy to tell you guys that iphone5 with 2 cores runs smoother and opens apps faster than my s4. Specially the camera , dialer and gallery app. However when it comes to in app load times and raw processing, the s4 has the edge.
I am already having overheat issues on my i9500. Can't even think about over clocking it. Instead, I was think of some under clock.

If we talk about cpu temp then I can't tell you but even the battery temp reaches above 55 to 60 for some users. In real life usage. It gets too hot to place it against our ear for a call.

Water cooled would be soo awesome !

there is a theory by turgot, that increasing a faktor wont increase the outcome at a specific point anymore. therefore i would be really interested how your play handles games at that oc. not only a benchmark, something like a video where its possible to see occouring errors, if there are any
this is great work you did, and it may allows some modification to the play.yes im thinking about cooling..even if it wont be that portable anymore. thanks for your help

2.3GHz
I'm currently going where no developer would go before my customized kernel has 26 CPU frequinces all up and a max of 2.3GHz
But without the GPU overclock and a 8mb GPU memory vs Lupus and dooms 4mb

i cant go even more than 1.6ghz

Needed an extra cooler solution and an powerful battery, like Mugen 3600mAh, to maintain this level of OC for diary use. Would be amazing!

Wait, what? Lupus Kernel offers increased amount of VRAM?

IMHO this is perfectly fine if you don't care so much about the device, otherwise you would be crazy. OC'ng so high will eventually cause in-reversable damage. I know what your doing so no need for me to ask questions But even if its stable for you it wont be for others all depends on the chip and as we know each is different. Also even if people don't use 2.x ghz frequencies tend to jump to the highest for a mili second if even on boot, causing problems with the device actually booting.
Well just my 2 cents on OC'ing...

What about 2 cents on this VRAM apparently being doubled?
At the end of the day its not GMEM which is essentially like a processors cache. Our chip has 256kb of it. But the allocated VMEM, would upping it to 8MB provide any sort of performance increase?

Can you post some benchmarks for the CPU? And also tell us more about the VRAM... Did it make any difference?

I believe that the Xplay has good chances of reach 2.0GHZ, running fine, provided has an good thermal solution. In my test, the games run fine for some minutes, before start overheat. Needed of somebody to build an custom cooler, then, make some tests. In my opinion, the safe clock, for sure, is not only 1.6GHZ. Only for default cooler.

I CBF screen shooting but CPU at 2.1 is around 20% faster then 1.6 and the GPU is around 25% faster with a 2600 3d score in antutu without adrenobooster

I know it's kind of not allowed to redistribute this but can u upload the kernel and send it ti me (PM) cus I will take some screens ans my play can handle 2GHz fine but bootloops when gaming after about 30-50 minutwa (depends on intensity of game!)

some apps still use software rendering, this forces them to use the hardware to render. this generally will give you a better experience. more battery.. no, not really.

You can use another governor like "interactive" to get more smoothness.

While some apps aren't as well written as they should be, and Android isn't quite capable of perfectly fluid and hiccup-free performance just yet, use a kernel that doesn't do the ridiculous thing of disabling MPDecision, which is a part of project butter that many kernel developers pretentiously disable, thinking that they're more capable than google+qualcomm. Funny thing is, contrary to general belief, your phone will even heat up less.

That`s total BS! MPDecision= Little smoothness at high price! Hot-plugging is wayyyy better than MPDecision! Less heat!? MAybe if your phone is idling but not if you`re using it!

I am also inclined to believe the opposite here man.. mpdecition has been around and used before project butter and Jelly Bean
. It literally sets your min freq to over 1 gigahertz just on a touch. Creates a lot of heat when turned on. Devs like faux who have building kernels for multiple devices for multiple years do know what their doing.

Yeah well, believe what you want to believe, it's not my job to change your mind.
I did my own testing rather than believing and came to my own conclusions; I could take 30 minutes to explain the actual behaviour of MPdecision compared to those hand written hotplug drivers, but I really have no interest in trying to convince anyone who's happy with their beliefs.
OP was asking for advice on how to make his device smoother (without even mentioning heat or power consumption) and I gave it to him. I'm happier with MPDecision, maybe he'll be as well; I don't really want to start a discussion with whom is already satisfied otherwise.

That was quite elaborative... I am also with mp decision might be... Coz on stock i dont know how but feel much smoothness rather than custom.
This might be might be coz i am not that much techy to tweak further the custom kernel. I run with default values of any custom kernel... Learning: wip. lolx

PIE control

Most important one.. Stability. Needs to be stable, and have a few minor tweaks, it all depends on how the stock kernel is though.. HTC Stock kernels tend to be pretty sweet anyway and just need a few features added IMO.

Have been told that the CPU is way under clocked @2.3,GHz and could handle 3.00ghz easy! Note that this is a rumour, but if true wow!
Really looking forward to it now!

At the price probably only if the device is donated. I'm sure the size is off putting for them.

USB-OTG and USB-Audio support would be stellar (if not included as standard)

I would love to see the GPU and CPU overclocking as well as over/under volt for both for maximum tuning capability. The other things I would like to see though are RAM and bus overclocking access since with so many GPU cores if we get to overclocking we may need some more in those areas too so we can take full advantage of the higher core MHz
