ICS/JB rom compatible with most games? - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As most gamers will know, lots of older HD games have trouble with the latest android versions, so as the title says, which roms, if any, are compatible with the most games? Roms other functions must be stable for daily use

It depends, same rom's may work different on different phones. Games like Asphalt, HAWX, MC3, ShadowGun worked OK on my defy (with CM10, WIUI) but the Assassins Creed FC's after couple of minutes.
Regards,

Thanks, I'm on quarx cm10 which is great but a few of my favorite games don't work, guess that's the game devs fault though as its generally older games

[Q] Suggest an Android ROM for me, please.

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 ?

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.

Again, sorry for the hijack

[Q] Best rom for games?

So which is the best rom for games? And I do not mean 3D High end ones just games in general
I have a hard time deciding between CM7.1 and Elite Blade.
I can't speak for Elite Blade because I haven't used it, but I'm currently on CM7.1 and all the games I've tried thus far have run smoothly.
Yes, i think that the CM is the best. CM7.1 is smoothly in games.
yeppp cm7 best for games

[Q] Stock or CM for gaming?

I've a rooted KF with CM7 barebones and I've bought this device primarily for gaming, so I'm loving this ROM.
However, I do want to use other apps such as XDA forum app and browsing/reading apps. But some of these apps don't seem to be stable on CM. The irony especially is that the XDA app keeps crashing whenever I log in. So I can only browse the forum as a guest from my KF.
Now are there any gamers out there who are able to play games smoothly on a stock or stock rooted KF? I think especially games like Frontline Commando or Modern Combat 3 are heavy on the resources and if they play well on the Stock KF, then I should be happy with it.
Any inputs? Are there ones that really prefer the Stock ROM over CM7 for reasons other than stability - for reasons such as performance for instance?
Also, if I have a rooted stock KF and the anroid market, then are all the apps/games on the Market visible and installable? I am asking this since the CM7 spoofs Galaxy Tab to ensure compatibility.
I use MIUI 2.1.20 to play NOVA, Modern Combat, Shadow Gun, etc... I haven't found a single app that doesn't work (I've been using it for 6 days). Hope that helped! Feel free to send me a message if you wanna know more.
I'm running rooted stock and am able to play shadowgun without a hitch.

Have you tried GTA3 and Sonic CD?
well... xda isnt stable on stock either. on rooted, without modifying build.prop, it wont show 75% of the games you mentioned. cm7 is definetly a better option.

I've tried GTA III but not sonic CD
Just to throw in my two cents... while I do like the customizations that are possible with CM7 and ICS I find that modified stock is more stable and, for my usage, better battery life.
You should try a Xbox 360 or a PS3 for actual gaming. Just saying...

Because the PS3 and Xbox fit great in your coat pocket for on-the-go.... (rolls eyes).
I've had pretty good luck with the MoDaCo rom. You get the advantages/stability of stock with everything under the hood modded, including the build.prop, market access, etc. It's ran everything I've thrown at it so far.
Thanks all for your inputs. I went to MoDaCo from CM7-Barebones as I wanted to try the stock feel. The stock Kindle is way way better for reading thanks to the various font size and typography features.
Even the games ran quite well on the MoDaCo and I was quite happy all these days as everything was working without a glitch.
However, when I wanted to play some gameloft games - I have purchased Modern Combat and Nova series, then poof... they don't appear on the market. I even changed the build.prop but no go. MoDaCo says they have the tweak that will show the Fire as Galaxy Tab on the market for more compatibility but even that didn't work.
So today I am back to CM7 and glad to see that the apps I want show up on market. Need to play around and see how this goes. Sad that I will be missing out on the reader experience though.
I am running CM7 with ravens kernel and play many of the same games you mentioned without issue. I had to download the modified build.prop but have not had any issues. Battery life is excellent and since ravens kernel overclocks performance is good.
try modaco custom rom with ravens kernel. It handled all the games I've thrown at it. I get like 2400-2500 quadrant scores from ravens kernel compared to 2000 stock kernel. So if you want the fastest stock experience I say go for that.

I'm on GR6 but think I'm using a stock kernel. Do you have a link to Raven's Kernel and some install instructions?
Also, what launcher do you use with MoDaCo ROM as I can't get ADW to run (immediately FCs).
Here's the link to the kernel.

[Q]Best rom for gaming?

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.

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.
