I'm running the sense 4.0a ics venemous Rom. I want to know. I have some apps malfunction and I want to know, is this because the apps aren't ics optimized or becUse the Rom isn't ready? Like temple run. It launches fine, but I have to spam the buttons for it to work and swiping right and left makes me jump. No. It's not my bad skills because I tried it on my friends unrooted 2.3 EVO and it worked fine. So is this because the apps don't work for ics 4.0 or because the Rom isn't optimized for gaming. If anyone uses zipsnet ics Rom or icecoldinsomnia, does this happen to u?

the touchscreen isn't calibrated right for games yet. This same problem happened to the ASOP Ics. Wait for an update so it's fixed.
Temple Run works fine for me here. I'm on AOSP ICS (zips)...
It might be the same issues not working on Blackwing's build as well... games don't work on his build either...

Yeah that's why I asked for people using zips to post. So I could distinguish of the problem was because of 4.0 or the Rom. Thnx

I was on Venomous and when i tried to swipe to the right, the little guy just went straight forward. Touchscreen is definetly not calibrated for games. Temple run is a bit more heavy in those terms. Angry birds space works well though

I figured out where the touchscreen is configured to, or atleast for my phone. The very top-rightish is for turning. If u have 2 turns Itl take the left one. If there's only one itl take that one. If u press the middle he jumps, and the top left corner he ducks.

Hello guys,
I recently purchased a game called Dungeon Defenders which is based on unreal3 engine. Sadly, it is kinda choppy on Evo.
I am running CM 6.1.2 with cm6-snap-v7.5-havs925 kernel.
Does anybody tried the DD on 2.3 ROM?
i am just wondering if the update will make the game less laggy.
I just played it for a bit on 2.3, and it seemed smoother. Now this could totally be my imagination, but before, when there were a number of baddies on the screen, I would get bad lag, but I didn't notice it on 2.3. There might still be some slight lag, but it seemed much better. If I get a chance to play for a more extended time, I'll report back.

It shouldn't. Doesn't effect the GPU. So far there's nothing that can upclock the GPU. Probably the closest thing to improcing the GPU is implementing the new 2.3.3 Nexus One GPU drivers but I don't think that Google/HTC has released the source yet.

Its part of snap kernel. I wouldn't bother though - its just some modifications that mostly trick quadrant into benching higher. Actual real use performance will be the same.

You guys sure? This is a very widely known issue and happens on both my EVO/CM7 and N1/Stock 2.3.3.
LP + Froyo with the 3D app drawer used to run at what seemed a smooth 50+ fps. Now it's around half that, definitely took a visual hit. The zooming app drawer transition also took a hit. I've tried every kernel/governor and it's the same.

I only have one issue with LP on CM7. Whenever I reboot, it lags big time and then LP force closes. After the FC it starts right back up and then it runs flawlessly.

This is my understanding as well, it seems we will have to wait for the developers of LP to optimize for GB. There is a HUGE performance difference between 2.2 & 2.3 w/ LP
Fine for me on latest Nightly, however, you could always just wait for the rewrite update, which should be like any week now...

Mine seems to run fairly smooth, however, I also get the crash when I boot the phone, and it seems to occasionally lag a bit, but after a while it'll fix itself and be smooth once more.
OK so just wanted to give my opinion yes Lp does run smooth on GB but it doesnt feal as smooth by when i am running adw EX. And yes i know that adw ex is already rewritten for GB. But as soon as LP rewrites for GB going straight back to LPP. I just love those widgets. BUt i sure love the fluxed icons theme for adw. Is there a way to install the flux theme to LP?
I just tried adw ex on cm7 and it felt just the same as launcher pro plus on cm7.

Don't bulletproof the launcher.
If you did, use default htk launcher.
This is precisely why I devised htk... bulltetproof is nice, but inflexible.

I've found that stock 1.3 rooted is a lot smoother in scrolling animations and such... Will CM7 ever attain this smoothness? Yes, i have tried both overclocked at 1.2-1.3 ghz
What version of CM7? Was it an SD card install?

I've noticed the opposite, as long as cm7 doesn't have too many apps installed.

What sd card where you using? Not all are made the same.
I've used 7.0.3, 7.1RC1, and nightlies between around 140-165. All emmc
I don't deal with stock so can't tell how smoothness it is but it's a good sign.
If you like rooted stock ROM then go ahead and use it.
I like CM7, but I like the smoothness of stock. The bad thing is the missing features
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I have the same problem. My theory is that CM7 is just missing hardware acceleration on the nook at this time (I think I remember reading this somewhere). Maybe a driver issue?
I thought they had that worked out in the first stable release? Maybe that was just video acceleration
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Video is fixed, but that my be a different part of the driver.
(This is entirely speculation on my part, based on my somewhat sporadic - and decidedly incomplete - knowlage.) My guess: there are 3 parts to the video "card" driver. 2D hardware, 3D hardware, and coprocessor functions. When they fixed video, they probably got the coprocessor functions working, but not the 2D or 3D hardware.
There is a good chance I am wrong, so correct me if you know.
On a side note, why cant CM7 use the video driver from the stock FW? It's still a Linux kernel underneath so shouldn't the drivers work, or am I missing something completely?
That makes some sense, but games(at least angry birds haha) work okay... So I dont know.
On using the kernel from stock: they probably can't use the stock kernel, because stock is based on Froyo, and CM7 is Gingerbread

Almost none of the stock rom is open source. I'm pretty sure the stock video driver was never released.
On the topic of smoothness:
I have found CM7 to be much smoother than stock. It probably just depends on your set up.

I would have to say Quattro. Its too smooth I ran it for about two days but I was missing FM radio. I would suggest give it a spin.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Hands down, Quattro
For me, none of the available ICS ROMs.
I appreciate the great effort of all the devs but having a dd without a working camera is not an option.
I gave Andromadus beta 8 a go last night. Got to admit, I'm not liking the new look. My problem is just with the recent apps list. on gb, i use it constantly as it holds all the apps i ever use so i never have to go searching through the app list. But the new version is a lot of effort having to scroll and manage apps. Plus the app listis annoying itself having to swipe horizontally. i assume I'd need to change launchers for that. Oh well, back to gb it is.

Tried Both Andromadus and Quattro and have to say that Quattro feels better so far.
Have tried the Virtous Quattro beta, and its really great looking at this stage. A shame the camera is so hard to get working. Except from the missing camera, this ROM can IMO easily be used for everyday use at the current stage.
+1 for Quattro....Beta 3 is rockin....

I'm guessing that you are referring to the keyboard back lights, these currently only work when you have automatic brightness enabled.
I have the same graphical glitches occasionally, a temporary fix is to manually stop the launcher in system settings.
None of them. Honestly it's frustrating for us users when the updates are once every 2 days, and we have to deal with constant reflashing of roms + all the random errors that will occur.
Just be patient and wait for CM9.
I tried Quattro and there were graphical glitches among other things.

I tried andromadus an quattro. But none has a well performance and all drained to much battery. On my Opinion you should wait for a final release, not trying all these alpha-beta version

I have tried several ICS roms over the last few weeks. LOADS of updates and alpha/beta. Basically I've been enjoying seeing the dev's work develop. I've tried
Taz's desire z port
Andromadus
Flemmard's original betas which became part of virtuous quattro
I've not tried every revision of these but almost!
With all I have been going back to my highly tuned very stable virtuous affinity DD but I am now on Quattro genuinely as a DD. It is very smooth and stable. With beta 6 I am struggling to recreate the graphical glitches that have been an issue. The features being added are all useful and add something to the rom. Overall very impressed.
Obviously no camera yet and yep almost daily updates is to be expected with betas but that's part of the fun!
Interesting to see what the virtuous team do to distinguish their rom if/when CM9 is released on vision. Unity/Affinity had a substantial userbase due to their super slick/smooth 'almost stock to look at' sense based roms. I don't envisage htc releasing a sense ics for vision so they will have to produce something virtuous from a pure android ics - looking forward to it.
Currently using Virtuous Quattro as my DD. Running quite well for me.
