Hello people!
I'm looking for an Android ROM, that would suit my needs.
I want to play 3D games on it, especially Dungeon Hunter II and Asphalt 6. I tried a lot a ROMs, but the gameplay is too laggy on all of them. So my question is: which ROM could run these games with good framerates, without lagging ?
Thank you in advance!

They could be laggy for many reasons not just the rom you are using. You can try installing a App killer which will give you more free ram.
You could also try using Chainfire3D driver from the market which will allow you to change gfx and also enable you to play Tegra 2 and other non-compatible games that are designed for higher powered mobiles/tablets.
If you want to try a slim, fast , stable rom you should install the NexusHD2 rom as its 99% stock Android.
i tried chainfire3D too but it will not help..
i think theres no really rom for dungeon hunter 2 :/
(i want to play this really nice game too )
Why don't you take a look at Frankinstines they are stable and functional

I am using gbx 12 rom and dungeon hunter 2 doesnt lag at all. It plays smoothly. Otherwise, check your default cpu setting. Mine is set by default at 997mhz.
If u r using android on SD then jagauralani's gamer edition is amazing I play asphalt 6 on it smoothly for first time ever, also fifa 10

But look at this guy:

he is using TyphooN... an older version, with Tytung r9 kernel... and it runs so smooth for him. I installed that build today (the same one) and it lags like hell. I don't know how he did it ?

Well, he is russian. And that explains alot.
My two favorite roms are :
NexusHD2 - by Tytung
HyperDroid GBX V12 - by Pongster
Both are among the fastest, most smooth and stable roms available.
Overclock ur CPU using SetCPU. And using Typhoon Cyangenomod with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14695842#post14695842 this. More ram .
Strange but that guy in the video has so nice frames/second in the game.. I tried many-many things, but the game is slow for me.. any ideas ?
Bump. Someone ?

Sorry, Dont mean to hijack the thread but I dont have enough posts to make a new one yet..
Looking for a recent rom that I can install using USB flasher in MAGLDR..
I can not use CMR because my SGS2 and 16Gb sdcard got stolen on the way to Lisbon yesterday.
I had my HD2 in my luggage, but no SD ;(
Preferably a non-sense rom that is flashable from my puter.
Again, sorry for the hijack
Where do people get these games Tegra 2, & fifa 10,and Asplaht, I want to get them but never see in the market, would someone send me the apks

Hi all,
for the last couple of days i've been thinking about giving CM7 a try. i've only ever used stock based roms so far and just wanted to hear peoples thoughts on the comparisons between CM7 and stock SE roms and what sort of experiences people have had with CM7.
many thanks
tom
basically both are ok but if you want the most gamepad compatibility stick with the stock SE firmware as CM7 tends to have more issues

CM7 basically removes the playstation from your playstation phone, i've tried CM7 a few times, but always gone back to stock.

I really like cm7 but not being able to play ea games or gameloft games with touchpads on cm7 was a deal breaker for me.

I don't know what your talking about. I can play EA and Gameloft games on CM7 just fine. Feels no different than stock.

Yeah thats the conclution i came too, on the other hand, if you don't game that much, CM7 is super fast and has some great features!

It's not that dramatic, you can keep playing emulators and many current games, without any issue. It's a bummer for Gameloft and EA games though.
i like stock more because touchpads are not fully working on cm7
thanks everyone, been reading thru some of the posts on the cm7 thread and people seem to have random glitches that, although they can also happen on stock, have swayed me towards sticking with stock firmwares. add to that the possibility that the touchpads will be iffy at best. again, thanks to everyone who took the time to reply and offer their views on the subject
tom
p.s. the leaked ics rom had nothing to do with what i decided on. honest guv
Interesting thread.
I was going to switch over to a custom rom but this has kind of put me off.
Is this just for CM7? (regarding controls)
I have this phone only because of the controls, but feel like I'm not getting the best out of it with the stock rom. What rom should I be looking at if any?
Thanks!
I got fed up with the amount of bloatware and things I never used running in the background, so I gave the FreeXperia PROJECT rom a go, so far I'm loving it.
The only issue is the touchpads BUT there are games that have that driver built in (Age of Zombies, THE DEAD: Chapter One), apart from GTA3 I've yet to find a game I like that uses them (Dead Space and Fifa not my cup of tea).
I mainly use FPse (touchpads not needed) and have truly fallen in love with my Play.
Each to there own though
I just got CM7 FXP054 fully working, and overclocked to 1.6GHz, on my r800x last night. The touchpads don't work on GTA III, but do work every other game I play. I'm loving it and I'm getting suprisingly great battery life. I still wish r800x users had more roms and kernels to choose from.
the touch pads in gta3, the left one changes the radio station and the right one moves your aiming when your zoomed in the sniper rifle, so they are pretty useless,would be nice if you could move the camera or look behind,maybe steer.
ive been thinking about flashing since i want to overclock to improve gta3 and just have a basic functions, never tried CM before, does doom kernel have working touchpads?

I tried GTA 3 while on CM7 and it didn't even recognise when the control pad was slid out thus forcing you to use on screen controls, may have been fixed in recent builds though, really hope that touchpads get fixed asap, as soon as they do, CM7 is my daily driver forever!
This is with FXP054
There are things about CM7 that I love: the non-sony themes throughout, customisation options built into the ROM, custom kernel (could NOT get custom kernel working on my stock ROM) AND MY BELOVED CRT LOCK ANIMATION
There were three issues for me though that stop me from using CM7:
1. Battery life is atrocious! I can actually see the battery percentage dropping during normal use, nothing out of the ordinary running and it just drains, from 15 minutes of facebook, 10 minutes of twitter, 1 hour of watching shows with Moboplayer the battery had 20% left from a full charge 4 hours ago. With stock ROM the battery will be about 65% after all that (daily routine)
2. Sound output just sucks. I plug the phone into my car stereo for my drive to/from work, no matter how much I play with the equaliser and all of the sound settings audio playback sounds bad. The bass is distorted and it's a lot quieter than stock ROM. I experienced this same sound output phenomenon with a different handset running CM7 so I think it's a CM issue
3. Automatic screen brightness doesn't seem to work at all

The only problem of these that I'm experiencing is the last one. The auto-brightness is all over the place. My battery life is a little bit less but not enough to bother me, and I'm guessing that's from my overclock.
I started using CyanogenMod7 in Febuary last year. When I got my Play, I messed around with Stock ROM, and while it was slick, bloatware free and fast, and I was impressed, it lacked CM's little tweaks I had to have. The dodgy touchpad support is a nuiscance, but a minor one.

Noone besides you is able to. I gave the ROM you claim works with these games a try, and it didn't work at all for me.
I choose CM7 over stock since I don't play any games that are broken on CM. Would be nice if GTAIII worked, but it doesn't work well with stock, so I can give up that ghost until Rockstar better supports our device.
I just wanted to know 1 good rom for playing hard games like NFS Shift, Modern Combat, Nova etc. To have 1.5 GHz+OC and to be stable and good for everyday use. No sense, better to be version 2.3+ it could be Cyanogen. Thanks.

No ROM will give you a particularly great gaming experience for HD/3D games to be honest. NFS Shift runs alright though, and I'm using Typhoon with the stock kernel. From what I've heard, any CM7 ROM will do fine, but stick with those. Probably Dorimanx as it appears to be the best, but I CBA to flash a new ROM right now
Honestly any and all roms on HD2 aren't going to give you gaming experience that you yearn for. Simple gaming is pie ... Yet, trying to play any game that requires a lot of your hardware will only leave you at best a little disappointed.

Hey, I'd just like to know, which rom is the fastest for game like temple run. Is it possuble to play games like that smoothly?
PS:I know, that therr are tons of topics like this, but I think, that they might be outdated. Thanks

Based on guesswork but I would say Dorimanx. CM7, 1.6GHz kernel, zRam etc. so it is possibly the fastest ROM (although I haven't actually used it, but statistically, it should be the best gaming ROM). However, no ROM will be smooth enough for games such as GTA which are extremely high end.
From today fastest ROM for gaming is this ICS CM9 with hardware acceleration
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622788
In nex few days you can expect more ICS roms with Hardware Acceleration.
This roms easily beats any Gingerbread ROM. Im playing ShadowGun completely smooth with no lag. Its impressively fluid. And it was almost unplayable on Gingerbread roms. You can even play Modern Combat 3 on this ROM.
Only problem is there are bugs in this ROM and it still needs development and tweaking. But when its finished it will bring HD2 to completely new level.
i would say dorimax
cm9 beta1 leo +1
Typhoon CM7
Typhoon CM7,the purpose of this build is to port the latest stock CyanogenMod 7 Desire (bravo) base to HD2 with the minimal amount of changes required with no custom apps. Keep in mind that this is my personal build and I am sharing it with you.

Recently got my S4 i9505 back, runs on factory stock 5.0.1 touchwiz, looking to root it, and install a rom? Which touchwiz, or pure android rom do you recommend?
Well, many ROMS around are done in amazing way... the best idea is to try each of them for like 5-7 days and pick a choice urself.. Some ROMs rock if u are a gamer type, some are well optimized for daily messages/calls/browsing with fine battery life... Some of them u won't like after 2hours of usage, it happens, so...
All I know for sure is that theres no the best rom, at first I didn't belive, but if u try them out, u will see...

well, the problem is that i am not a gamer at all, but i read long time ago that people had a great expirience with these roms:
TW based: imperium, wiz cyan

depends on what u like
and u can check shark jungle profile on youtube, he describes almost all ROMs...

Ressurection has many modification and customization, but i faced a little worst battery life than jdct one .... test both and see urself bro
stef_zii says rigth.
For me:
Give a Shot these -> JDCTeam(AOSP or LOS based) - LineageOS(LOS based) - Wizcyan(TW based) - SuperTW(TW based)
These are mostly known and good ones. RR has some (actually so much) bugs and Devs don't fix them, but you can try it.
Tw roms based Android 5 or 4 and some of them using Samsung galaxy S5-6-7-8 or Note4-5-7 framework that looks like these devices, but not same.
On the other hand AOSP&LOS based roms are pretty nice designed and looks cool. Substratum is a world that you can change mostly everything in your phone. Stability and daily speed better but i don't know if gaming speed good or not(i don't play games, just sometimes little games). But you couldn't feel any lag at heavy games like GTA San Andreas (at medium or medium-high settings), Asphalt 8, NFS, or others..
And at AOSP&LOS based roms, try Android 6-7 and 8(still beta in AOSP but LOS is optimazed, still not fully trust).
Edit: Forgot to say that, camera in TW roms gives better quality than others because of Samsung's tricks.. But enough for me at daily usage & Stability & Style/Design better at AOSP&LOS based roms for me.
So, if you have any question, i'll be here. But mostly, you need to try many of roms.

Thanks! i was actually thinking of just installing Google Play Edition 5.1, it looks fast and perfect for what i want, also as i'm not installing a newer version of android, which would slightly slow down the device with only lags here and there. While having S4 at 5.1 will possibly give really good performance?
is it stable?
how about performance?
maybe daily driver?

Actuay, i tried both GPE Android 4.4.4 and 5.1, but i don't remember 5.1. GPE 4.4.4 really nice and still it gives best performance for daily usage, but has a little bug which so many videos at youtube lags.
Don't forget that you need a custom kernel for both. Because random reboots broke everything if you use it at stock kernel(as i remember).
Google made a good job even at S4.
I know daily usage at 5.1 but not for long time, it was a few days before random reboots(i want a advanture with stock kernel), so actually it was really good. But as you probably know that Android 5.1 will always have some bad stuffs about structer of itself. Just give a shot for both.. (Camera still can't be reach to TW based roms quality)

Hi This is exactly what I was looking for. My sister's phone got stolen. No money to buy a new one yet. I gave her my old S4 i9505 to use but I am afraid she might find it a little to slow from what she is used to. I had mine rooted so I am trying to find a good Rom for her. She is not a gamer though. All I need is Rom that allows her S4 to have a great battery life, is fast and stable... Oh and it would even better if it was above Android 5.0... Android 5.1 or above would be great or.... A rom that only looks as if it was above 5.0.
Any recommendations? Please help. Thank u in advance.
