[GUIDE]Fix Asphalt 7 Lag Note 2 without decreasing graphic quality. - Galaxy Note II General

########It's misunderstanding.###############
I found this fix eventually. You have to install Asphalt 7 Galaxy S3 1.02 Samsung Apps version. (And it's free for S3 users :laugh: )Its framerate is very playable. from 22-40 fps (measured with FPS Meter app) with no decreasing graphic quality like my previous mod : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2047321
Note 2 users can't see Asphalt 7 paid nor free in Samsung Apps. Why? Why? Samsung.
I can't distribute the APK. Because it checks the license for first time online, then it finds out that you haven't purchase it for FREE in Samsung Apps, so it won't open.
So, let's begin.
1.Root your device
2.Use a root file browser to open \system\build.prop with a text editor
3.Look for ro.product.model=GT-N7100 and change it to ro.product.model=GT-i9300 (You can change it back to GT-N7100 later)
4.Reboot
5.Just open Samsung Apps. You don't have to wipe data for Samsung Apps.
6.Search for Asphalt 7, and install it for free! It's version 1.02 though.
7.Enjoy lag free asphalt 7 with no loss graphic quality! :good:
8.You have to change to ro.product.model=GT-N7100 and reboot, or you can't use S Note.
########It's misunderstanding.###############
Here is the correct guide.
After you change back to ro.product.model=GT-N7100. You will find out that the game become lag again. Both Samsung Apps and Google Play version.
So whenever you want to play Asphalt 7. Edit build.prop to ro.product.model=GT-i9300. Reboot once. And play without lags both GOOGLE PLAY and SAMSUNG APPS version.
When you finished playing it. Edit build.prop to change back to ro.product.model=GT-N7100, or you can't use S Note,

I can see asphalt 7 free in samsung apps without any problems.
Works just fine without editing anything! Maybe it's a case with availability in your country.

So, it is not available in Thailand for Note 2. = =

Games....

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:
do you guys experience any lag in games on custom or official firmware and which firmware is best for gaming? I will get gtab 2 7.0 in few days so I thought it would be good to ask.

gedeROM Game/app Compatibility List

I can't seem to get any gameloft games besides 9mm to play. tried about half of them and they crash on boot or won't finish
downloading from gameloft servers due to some error(checked my wifi no problems).
Is there some sort of compatibility list for KF and ICS for games or apps??
If not making one would be cool so people could avoid wastin time downloading **** that doesn't work(like me)
GT Free+ HD works fine.
UNO (Kindle Fire version from Amazon App Store) works fine when restored from Titanium Backup. UNO from the Play store runs, but doesn't work well (touchscreen issues)
I haven't been able to get Asphalt 6 to work (KF version from Amazon store restored from Titanium Backup, nor the Google Play store version)
Shrek Kart (Kindle Fire version from Amazon) doesn't work either from Titanium Backup.
That's all I've tried so far.
KF running gedeROM v1.45
I got Nova 2 HD to work but theres issues with the touchscreen locking inputs in
(aim left and it continues to wave or shoot and doesn't stop)just pausing the game
and unpausing resets it so its not that bad.
Counter strike and Minecraft work too.
The games I have tried haven't been from either store.. torrented them.
Guess I'll start tryin different sources and different Versions and post'em if i get lucky
EDIT::::: I think It might have something with the tablet thinking its a galaxy nexus and the
versions of the apk aren't really compatible with it. Do all versions of ICS show KF as a Galaxy nexus
or do they differ from which ICS was ripped from????
Has anyone had any luck with game console emulators, such as NESoid, SNESoid, N64oid, etc? I tried them last on Hashcode's vanilla release, but they failed to load ALL game roms. I haven't had the chance to try them yet on gedeRom, but I expect the same results since all ICS roms for the Kindle Fire are still in early development.

No, just this ROM masquerades the Kindle as a Galaxy Nexus. Others, like Hashcode's, show it as a Kindle Fire.

Dungeon Hunter 2 crashes after the opening cinematic, even the GTP1000 version which works for CM7. Such a shame. DH3 is boring as hell.
I've just tried NESoid and SNESoid. Both apps work, but when the scaling is set to "Stretched" and used in the landscape orientation everything is extremely blurry. Even the on-screen gamepad controls are blurred. It looks fine in the portrait orientation though. I'm not sure what's causing this...
EDIT: I was going to take a screenshot of the blurry screen to post here, but the screenshot is not blurry at all. So strange...

You have PvZ working in ICS? I've only gotten it to work in GB, what version are you using? For me, it works for about 30 seconds then freezes, which is common for ICS from what I could gather in the PvZ forums.
I am using gederom 1.55, with stock build.prop (ie galaxy nexus).
Works great for me, love that game!
No chainfire.
To the other guy, PvZ is fine on ICS, i dont play it often, but it worked for 1 game on same rom as above. Dunno, ive never had problems, just make sure you use powervr APK. If the market has problems, there is something wrong with the ROM i presume.
Hope ive helped!

Asphalt 7 Note 2 Lag Fix - Modded DeviceConfig.xml

Hi, for unknown reason that Asphalt 7 Lag on Galaxy Note 2. It is smooth on Galaxy S3 with high detail graphics, while Galaxy Note 2 CPU+GPU is the same as Galaxy S3 and even faster. I took about 3 hours editing and testing DeviceConfig.xml. Asphalt 7 on Note 2 uses Galaxy S3 config or android_high in DeviceConfig.xml
After trials, I found the best config for Galaxy Note 2. I changed these setting.
use_hires_map from true to false -> road reflection effects are disabled. some building textures are blured. road textures in distant are blured.
use_high_quality_car_shader from false to true -> not sure what it did, but it doesn't affect framerates. Just trying to compensate low hires_map setting.
use_traffic_shadow from false to true -> Maybe enable traffic car shadow, but it doesn't affect framerates. Just trying to compensate low hires_map setting.
And the game framerate is silky smooth! If you prefer fluid framerate than graphic details. You should install this mod.
To install it
Please note that I have only tested on Asphalt 7 Google Play Version 1.04. Not sure it will work without modification on other versions.
1.Copy patch.1040.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb from \GT-N7100\Phone\Android\obb\com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM (Might be different path if you use DirectoryBind) to anywhere on your computer storage.
If you are trying to mod on another version. You will need to copy another obb file. For example modding 1.03, you will need to copy and edit patch.1030.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb. Modding 1.01, you will need to copy and edit main obb : main.101.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb
(But I'm not sure my mod will work with other versions than 1.04)
Backup the original .obb file in case you want to roll back this mod.
2.Rename file extension of .obb to .tar
3.Open it with WinRAR, Navigate to \data\DeviceConfig inside the .tar file.
4.Download my modded DeviceConfig.xml file from this post attachment, drag it and drop into WinRAR window opened .tar file in order to replace DeviceConfig.xml. Choose compression method as Store, and click OK.
5.Exit WinRAR and rename .tar to .obb
6.Copy newly modded .obb to replace the old .obb in \GT-N7100\Phone\Android\obb\com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM
7.Open the game and enjoy lag free Asphalt 7, but with lower graphic details.

Really? There are some tracks like Shang Hai, Hawaii, Paris that lag badly to unplayable. Some tracks like Havana is smooth and playable. Search for note 2 asphalt 7 on youtube. There is a lot of gameplay video showing lag.
What game version are you running on?
Thanks
Hey, I tried buying the game from Gameloft Wapstore. It's even more expensive than Google Play Version. Its 1.03. And it is laggy like the Google Play version. So dont buy the Wapstore Version.

I tried 1.0.0. It lags like old. Going back to 1.0.4 with my mod.
Error in start up
Hi ninekaw9, I tried following your steps 1-by-1 but in my Note 2 but in start-up of Asphalt, it is looking for an internet connection (which is not required before), when I tried to connect via wifi it says please reinstall whole game.
Thank you so much for this.
It's sad that, while A7 is nowhere near NFS: MW graphics-wise (and otherwise), compromises like this have to be made. Shame on Gameloft.
A7 running smooth as butter.

noob Root

k , now that my Gtab is rooted what else (apps) should I install?
I know when I was into rooting my smart phones there were alot of apps like titanium and root explorer and several other essential ones. But even a game or two would be nice to have . LOL

That depends on why you rooted it. I'm a Linux person, so the first thing I did was to put Busybox on it so I can get a larger range of commands.
Titanium Backup for sure, since that's a great backup/restore tool. But, remember that the "sdcard" in the Gtab isn't removable. If you do backups (nandroid or Ti) you've got to pull them from internal storage in case you've got to recover. (I'm in that state now with a two month old nandroid.) :crying:
Wifi Tether is also another reason to root.
When I root a new device I usually start out by flashing a custom ROM. Then I get the "most-needed" root apps, like Titanium Backup, AdAway, DroidWall, AppAdmin, Voltage Control and Busybox installer. And that's pretty much all I use root for. I might also flash some cool mod, like AC!D Sound or AwesomeBeats, or a custom kernel
As for games, You didn't mention what types You like, but here's a short list of games I enjoy on my Tab:
- Deadtrigger
- ShadowguneadZone
- GTA Vice City
- Great Little War Game
- Great Big War Game
I found Asphalt 7, DeadSpace and MassEffect:Infiltrator to be very laggy...

I would recommend to stay away from sites like that, as they distribute illegal pirated apps, that may (read: most-likely) contain malware. Never use a pirated root-app, as You actually don't know what You give root-access.
Malware with root-access = You're gonna have a bad time !

- AdFree

Note 4 and Real Racing 3, low frame rate and some lags

I have a 910F (so snapdragon) Original Rom lollipop 5.0.1
I installed Real Racing 3, I expected a good quality and no lags... but unluckily there are a very annoying low frame rate.
What could be the problem?
If the problem is that default resolution is too high... there is some way to put a lower quality?
Hmmm... this should be hard to tell how to optimize. But there's a way for lower lags!
1. If you have any "Battery saver" or "Phone Speed Optimizer" downloaded from Play Store or anywhere else, remove it.
2. Any apps that you downloaded earlier but not being used for more than a month? Remove it.
3. I'm sorry, I can't find anything else to optimize even more. But if it helped, even it helped you a little bit, give me a like! If you can find even more tips about optimizing, give me a like, then quote this post and say any tricks you can find (except installing apps from Play Store or elsewhere that they says that "Can Optimize".
in the normal use my phone don't has any lags... it's only with this game the problem
that is strange , you are using one of the most advanced cellphones that is shipped with powerful hardware .... there should be nothing wrong with the note 4 , check power saving toggle
Funny i've noticed Real Racing 3 being laggy lately. I'm gonna blame the latest update, never used to lag.
