My buddy has the captivate, my other buddy and iphone 4.
We all play Homerun Battle 3d and their baseball bats move around super smooth, but mine is choppy.
Other than that the FPS in the game is the same across all 3 phones.
Thoughts?
I installed the lagfix and that did nothing.
I don't play Homerun3D but on Asphalt 5, the racing game, it is very responsive for me. I don't really play any other accelerometer-based games so I can't comment further.
I tried this fix from another post, it says to download "android sensor data" from the market and run it.
After running it my accelerometer is much smoother, but after reboot it becomes choppy again.

Exactly right. Run Android Sensor Data for around 10-20 seconds after each reboot and you'll be good to go.

Yea hr3d ran real choppy when I installed it. I was so disappointed since I had it on my old iphone. But thsts just one game. I can live without it. Im happy to be back on an android device

I was surfing the internet and realized someone on xda made a program called "chainfire 3d"....here is the market link....https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d&feature=search_result
the program allows you to change your drivers to nvidia drives and im now able to play samurai II vengeance (which is only meant for tegra 2 phones)....here is the instructions to get the driver to work...http://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?f=399&t=199488
The game runs perfectly on my phone and I haven't noticed any side effects yet..
p.s. the programs allows to even use the qualcomm drivers as well
EDIT....make sure journaling is on...here is the link for journaling......http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1071723
thanks @063_XOBX for the heads up for having journaling on before....have a nandroid backuop before applying this as well
p.s. some roms already have journaling on, so make sure to check on that before you flash the "journaling on" zip
O.O thanks for sharing! I'm going to try this out later.

I saw that yesterday but didn't even think of a use for it. Awesome that it works.

Just a warning for anyone who runs no-journaled, it will force reboot your phone which might cause issues.

Are you on EXT4?

The question is, are there any Tegra 2 games that are worth buying right now?

Fruit Ninja THD is pretty nice, but not enough changes other than having multiplayer (it's splitscreen, not online)
I'm trying Samurai II: Vengeance right now. I'll report back after. So far it seems good.
@whosdaman: download the Tegra Zone app off the market.
Where do you get the Tegra Games?
Alright, I've had enough time to test out Samurai II: Vengeance and the verdict is it's good. It's not amazing, but it's very smooth, seems like an interesting story, and time consuming. However, it is the classic "Hit, hit, slice, roll" controls that can seem repetitive if that's not your style. Otherwise, for a gamer like myself I think it's worth it.
Fruit Ninja THD isn't worth the upgrade, but if you've never tried Fruit Ninja before, get THD immediately!

Holy crap does it work flawlessly. That is kinda pathetic for the Tegra 2 that our phones can play their games effortlessly with a hacked opengl driver. I thought the games would at least be chugging a little bit, but they are perfect. At least Samurai II: Vengeance is.
About to try Monster Madness.
Edit: Monster Madness does not work.

Agreed! Although, this shouldn't be shocking. The reason why these games are meant for dual-core is because of the CPU usage these games use, and their ability to drain the battery pretty quickly if you play for a decent amount of time. Our phones do run the games well, however it does take up a lot of CPU usage, which is why Dual-core is more efficient since it can balance the memory between each processor without stressing either one.
But, does that really matter if you're home or at work next to a charger trying to find a way to pass some time? Of course not. Which is why this is amazing.
Chainfire is a god. Almost makes me want to find out what phone he has and switch to that. He just singlehandedly saved Android a HUGE amount of fragmentation. Seeing developers make games and apps that could only run on a specific hardware setup was worrying to me more than any other sort of fragmentation.

It's only on Tablets right now, I think.
If you look at the Tegra Zone app, it's released for Android phones sometime in June.

Did the news get around about a guy named butcher pete?
i figured everything out...i started over by restoring my nandroid backup...im running urbanlegend rom and i think it already has journaling on (im not sure and I don't know how to check if its on or not)...everything I flashed the zip for the "journaling on", my phone bootlooped...so i restored my old backup and just ran the app and everything works perfectly now...the chainfire app will works now and i am currently playing samurai ( a bit repetitive but a great game)
[email protected] i think this chainfire guy might have solved the android gaming issue also (hopefully)...being able to play games for different processers is awesome and i hope our galaxy s can keep up with the new processers and games that come out next year
the lack of a nvidia chipset is the only bump that is stopping me from getting a Galx2
So i thought it would be a good idea to create a thread in order to allow Desire HD users to share their experiences with Chainfire3D and what apps do or don't work.
The plugin used is listed on the left of the game.
WORKING
[nvidia]Fruit Ninja THD - runs great
[nvidia]Hardwood Solitaire - a little laggy in menus, gameplay is fine
[nvidia]Riptide - a little laggy during gameplay, but playable. Character's graphic a little messed up.
[nvidia]Samuria II: Vengeance - perfect, apart from some menu glitches. Press home and return for temp fix
[none]Plants vs. Zombies HD - works perfect, but buttons very small because tablet optimized
[nvidia]Pinball HD for Tegra - works perfect
[nvidia]My First TRAINZ Set - works but very slow - unplayable.
[nvidia]Backbreaker - works but animations broken
NOT WORKING
Big Bang Racing
Monster Madness
Any other games you have tried with Chainfire? I've been curious to know how Aftermath XHD plays on the Desire HD. Anyone tried that?
I'll try keep this post updated.

yeah i get that too. No big deal really.
Well,given the fact that,being underage,I have no credit card,I only tried Dungeon Defenders THD and it won't play.It instantly closes when I try to launch it.
Just to make sure,you are using the Nvidia plugin,aren't you Beaver?
Big bang racing doesn't work. Just starts up with a screen about device not meeting minimum hardware requirements, seems to be the only game so far that doesn't work.

Yeah using the Nvidia plugin. Maybe try it without the plugin? Or try playing around with the graphic settings in the Chainfire app.
I think, contrary to ethics and all that, the best thing to do is actually pirate a game, see if it works, then buy it if it works. Especially if it's not on this list.
If you buy a game (such as Doktaphex presumably did with Big Bang Racing) and find it doesn't work, you've essentially wasted money on a game that doesn't work.
I know some people will take this the wrong way, but I firmly believe it's the best way to do it.

I tried that a week or so back. It worked without even using Chainfire. But its kind of useless because its optimized for tablets so all the buttons are so small.
Aftermath XHD works fine on the DHD... runs smoothly !

Yep, works perfectly. Thank you so much, now to play games nvidia. Greetings
Well,I can confirm that Dungeon Defenders works,just not the Tegra edition.When you launch it first time with the Tegra plugin,it downloads the Tegra files,but it cannot start the game itself.If you download the game with the Tegra plugin,then switch the plugin off and run it,it will download the Qualcomm files and run ok.Just a little choppy at times but whatever!
It's quite good in fact.I just got addicted!

Just like to add Pinball HD for Tegra works too ... flawlessly!

My First TRAINZ Set works too... to slowly tho ... is unplayable
Kris
Alright ill add them to the op when I get on my pc
omg thats awesome!!
My First TRAINZ Set is a pity, I wanted that game...
While most games work I have a few that don't.
Asphalt 5 or 6 don't work... most likely a build. prop issue.
Heavy Gunner has an xy axis issue that is reported to be an ICS issue.
GTA III does work.
Has anyone moved the build.prop to get more games to install?

Not sure about build prop but I can say that Nova2 HD doesn't work (Gameloft sucks), Shadowgun force closes sometimes. Dead Space, Temple Run, Angry Birds Space and N64 emulator all work well.

it works on mine...try to download the latest version, try the HD version, i'm using it.
GTAIII only barely works for me. It ends up freezing the controls, so if I was running, he just keeps running as I am still touching the controls. The controls also seem to lag greatly causing me to get my butt kicked when I am trying to mug people.
i'm considering buying this tab and games if definatly an interest. Was wondering has anyone tried a PSemulator on the tab? Wonder how that would play with something like say, FF7 also curious how Mini Motor Racing plays on the tab.

I removed it and re-installed it. Still doesn't work. It downloads the levels, goes to the PopCap screen then hangs forever, sometimes it makes it to the next screen (Loading...), then hangs.
I can't find a HD version, just the regular pay for version. It works just fine on my Atrix 2.
Real Racing 2 doesn't work. It installs but gets a server error 5002 when launched. I bought the Tab just for this awesome game!
I got a bunch of Gameloft games to work, by changing the build.prop to Galaxy Nexus. Same GPU as our tab, and high resolution, so the games should be optimized. Unzip this and overwrite the one inside /system/
Make a backup first, this might cause problems down the line.
EDIT: Yeah this kills sound. So, after you change your build.prop, download the games, install the data and restore your backed up build.prop. Sound will work again. The games will also still work.
There is an app on the market called "Device Spoofer" that makes this process easier.

That message you got is called a "force close" Some apps do this s8metimes especially if there are many apps fighting for Ram, thats when you need the multirasking butt8n, which looks like 2 frames with an overlap, selecting "Remove all" will clear up Ram.
Thats all i really know, feel free to PM me for further issues.

hi!
PvZ works great for me, I am using version 1.3.16 with included data files to sd card.
however, it is always asking for network, just for starting the app.
GTA 3 work fine for me CM 10/1 and aopk oc kernel :good:

Nop, i can run Modern combat 4, GTA, dead trigger, spider man etc perfectly without any lag, using cm10.1 but with a official Rom it should the same.
So I got "The Dark Knight Rises" game from Google play. Took me quite a long time to download. But it was just the beginning of my problems. The game lags so much to the point that it freezes during gameplay and force closes. I have tried using chainfire 3D and loaded Tegra plug-in and tried playing but no joy. So after paying around $ 7.00 for this supposedly awesome game, I am not even able to play it. I can't even ask for a refund. Has anybody downloaded this game and played on our 7.7? Any suggestion on how to make it lag free? I have used System tuner Pro and killed almost all except for the required tasks. I have uninstalled so many of my favorite games and apps just so that I could play this game. I am all ear to all the suggestions for a better gameplay.
I am still using android 3.2 though my phone is rooted.
