3D driver optimisations

Hello every genius !!
Can someone add 3D driver optimisations in their fabulous kernel / rom like cyanogen mod7?
In cyanogen mod we can notice a real boost performance in 3d applications. So why not include the cyanogen 3d driver in next rom or kernel ?
Thank you all !

I'll quote my post from another topic
Guys, look at that:
http://glbenchmark.com/subtest_results_of_device.jsp?D=Google+Nexus+S&id=405
There are 12 tests of Nexus S in GLBenchmark, and 11 of them are below 2400 points (more or less like our SGS), but the most recent one (uploaded at 2011.02.11) scored 3025 points, more than Tegra 2. This result's is made by someone from GLBenchmark, and shows at "GLBenchmark team tested" page of the results. How is that possible?

So, according to this benchmark, the performance of Nexus S'ses SGX540 increased dramatically somehow. And according to this article,
LG's software build also uses a newer version of Imagination Technologies' driver (1.6 instead of 1.5)
Click to expand...

So, maybe, in the latest update (2.3.2, or whatever) Nexus S got this new 1.6 GPU driver with increased up to 30% performance?

Now this is getting interesting!
any more info about this ?

fake?
I think ots a fake or it was a special rom, i use darys rom with voodoo and have 2537

But wich driver the Cyanogen team use in their cyanogen mod7 ?
Their 3d driver score in quadrant pro is very impresive, nearly 30 to 40% more than stock froyo 2.2 rom.
I will try to ask the cyanogen team.
Kepp in touch

// oh your right
Well.. This really looks interesting.

Now this is interesting

Looking forward to this

Surprised someone with a little more knowledge hasn't commented on this yet. Hopefully we'll have an answer soon

In the meantime -> report here if the sources (I mean precompiled module, which will be inside the package) are online

Are you sure? On my i9000 with CM7, quadrant 3D test even can't be finished normally.

What is your quadrant GPU score in CM? On JS5 2.2.1 i have 2d:293; 3d:879. Are CM scores really better?

SGX540 is much better GPU than the one used in Tegra 2.
So I guess these results are caused by the newer driver version (1.6) released by IT.

with mitra rom i have these score on quadran advanced:
overclocked to 1.3ghz (on set cpu min and max @1.3)
total score 3702
at stock 1ghz (on set cpu min and max @1ghz)
total score 2865
good score for me with this rom.
i thing that the driver are updated...

[ROM] OEX

I don't have an u8800 but I did this for a friend.
I was unsure on whether to share it but oh hell, here we go.
This is Oxygen 17/08 + franco.Kernel 17/08 + Many tweaks I included.
So basically, Oxygen Express = OEX.
All credits go to dzo and whoever he credited on his own Oxygen thread
and franciscofranco for the kernel. In comparison to them, I did nothing.
Make sure to buy them a beer.
Main features (in contrast with Oxygen):
- EXT4 with proper mount options and no journalism
- Removed some applications (torch,terminal,download,talk,gmail,...)
- A thousand tweaks (no seriously, they are many, too many to list)
- zRAM enabled by default, Loopy Smoothness tweak, Auto-Zipalign
- Patched hosts, SE supl instead of Google, blah blah I'm tired already
Download:
- http://www.multiupload.com/18M1MNCBSM
Instructions:
- The usual.
Obs:
- It will format system, data and cache.
- Hint: switch to V(R) I/O Scheduler.
- There'll be no support, I don't have the phone, I did this for a friend.
- If you get stuck on boot, go back to recovery and use ADB to ls /system; if it's empty, well, it happens sometimes. Reflash.
- Don't thank me; thank dzo for the port and franciscofranco for the kernel. Moreover, if they want this thread closed, I will abide.

wow. just installed cm7 yesterday, will try this soon!

i'll try..thx 4 this noejn...

seems to rock it all!
will flash it soon!

Tried flashing 3 times after wiping data/cache/davlik doesn't boot at all..
Edit: On the 4th try and after waiting a while it booted! Will try it and report
Edit Again: 1st bug that i've reported at francokernel thread too is that hands free microphone is not working when you make a call. Unfortunately that's a big bug for me can't continue using it will flash some other rom..

3800 quadrant is kinda impressive. cpu at how much? thats after a clean install?

thanks very much ,i will try it later ,and i hope you can fix some bugs that all the third rom have in comman,such as wifi hot spot so on(sorry for my poor english)
and thank you again for what you have done to the X5 user

thanks , trying it now . Will post if there is any issue/bug .

''- Hint: switch to V(R) I/O Scheduler.'' wHAT do u mean by this?

I will try it now to see if works!

Ok...Flashed at 1st try, just did a quick quadrant @ 1.8 minMax and got a 3500... will further test today but seems that this is the pick for pure performance as is typical of Noejn work anyways... Obrigado!!
p.s (the antutu scores seem a bit low, especially Ram and cpu integer, @1.8 i got 3500 when i used to get 4k any ideas?)
p.s 2 (Wow... for some reason on my second round of tests @1.8 just had a 1000 points drop in both antutu and quadrant, strange.... Wich gov do u recommend Noej)

guys .. is oxygen still cant play 720p video ??? noejn , is there anyway to get it work ?? hard decode fail .

works for me until now no problems thank u!

Yep, my friend also told me Antutu dropped a bit.
Some of the tweaks aren't benchmarks friendly but as long as it is snappier (which I've been told it is), it's fine.

Anyone else having issues with android market app? it crashes everytime I try to install any apps.
Completely fresh install on a brand new phone (updated to b136 before installing this ROM)
Edit: Now it crashes when starting market filename: com.android.vending.

pretty cool mod!

Well, i flashed this rom.
It worked at the first try. im using it with InteractiveX: 614-1209 mhz, no freezes or reboots. The amrket works also well. I have a +200 pionts in antutu compared to the normal oxygen. so: Thank you Noejn
But i have 1 problem^^: i cant change my wallpaper :d can you help me? it says that its changing but after thaht its the same wallpaper^^

here I can get E-mail default app?

Ok sorted my stuff out.. just another issue what amss is this rom on ? 162?

[Guide][CM9][Easy-to-do] Performance Boost

Found and tested some init.d tweaks for CM9 for me it worked marvelous used in minicm9 nightlies sept.14
How to use:
Part 1
1.Flash latest naa ics kernel
2.download latest nightlies
3.download the attached file
4.extract files to destop
5.drag the 2 ini.d tweaks to rom's init.d folder
(system/etc/init.d)
6.save
7. Debloat the rom (remove unnecessary apps on system apps folder) (optional)
8. put rom to sd then flash
Part 2(more tweak)
1.open rom and go to to /system/lib/egl/
2.Open the file named "egl.cfg"
3.Delete the first line"0 0 android" or something like that
4.Go back into the egl folder and delete libGLES_android.so
Settings that i used:
[email protected] 245-748mhz
cwm swap partition
KSM-on
Allow purging of asset- on
zRam- 26% (use 18 if you want more battery life)
force GPU rendering
allow mock location off (some say it makes battery last longer)
THE TWEAKS ARE NOT MADE BY ME. I'm just sharing
Credits:
to the person who made the init.d tweaks
nAa for making ICS possible to our senior citizen phone
If mods found this offending to anyone feel free to remove the post just sharing my own experience

About the software rendering removal, please note that by removing that, gaming on our X8's would suck, big time more so on our little phones.

I think,no.

then our phone will have only ICS but we cant play simple video even :'(

It works in Cm7 too, and for dialy use it is really good. It's not just making the phone usage smoother, but dramatically makes the battery last longer. It disables the Cpu rendering everywhere, and only the GPU do it, so the CPU can "concentrate" to calculations in the background processes. I use it since yesterday and started with 100% battery, and I can say it is true that battery is draining much slower.

i never had that problem since i'm not an avid fan of watching movie or video on a small screen

noproblem for appropriate resolution video... you can use app to watch HD videos

I went through it. Apparently some of the scripts were optimized for the ACE. I have no problem, however, some of them are optimizing nothing. Example, some of them are optimizing CPU Governors that aren't in our X8's, like Ondemandx and lulzactive. If you want, I can help you make it more X8 friendly

The following quote explains it well :
I have a very valuable use for Mock Locations. I am a full-time RVer and travel the USA constantly. While traveling, GPS constantly tells me where I am. However, when i want to know the location of campgrounds for the night, search engines and apps like "Places" and "Where" will only search the area where GPS says I am NOW. Mock locations (using My Fake Location) allows me to search the area where I WILL BE later in the day by faking the GPS location. Works GREAT.

[MOD]Disable CPU rendering/Full GPU rendering/Improve the performance of your GPU

Introduction:
The UI of android keeps improving as updates from the android team keep flowing in. There has been a massive improvement in the aesthetics and looks of the system UI from the ancient Eclair till Jelly Bean. With improving UI and better graphics the system keeps becoming an resource hog. All android smartphones these days come with a separate GPU to satisfy the graphics rendering needs of the apps these days. However the GPU doesn’t exactly help in rendering of the system UI that means the load falls of the CPU to render the system UI and other system framework.
so here is a Mod that will disable CPU rendering and enable full GPU rendering,which will let you enjoy the true power of your adreno200!
Improvements:
-Improved performance.
-Blazing speed.
-Better sound quality.
-Improved responsiveness.
-Smoother UI experience.
-Some apps(bloatware) that earlier ran slow like Facebook will turn snappy.
-Free up CPU for other tasks.
requirements:
-Rooted device
-CWM installed 4 or 5!
How to install:
1-Download the file.
2-boot to recovery mod.
3-Make a nandroid backup just in case.
4-install zip from sdcard.
5-choose Zip from sdcard and choose the file.
6-Reboot your device!

For android 4.4 but it should work with 4.3 (untested)

Loving the latest Kernel mate, nice work.
I can quite agree with Nvidia making modding this tablet hardwork with their sources being like they are.
Whats even better with this Kernel is we can now have Custom bootanimations without it hitting the dam /lbh partition for it. So now i have a Android L Bootanimation lol
