"and discussion thread" he is suggesting you ask how to fix MC4 performance in the MC4 thread.

Check out some custom kernels. I recommend trinity.

Overclock your GPU to 484 or 520 using Trinity or m kernel or any other kernel that support's GPU overclocking

is overclocking to that rate safe and how do i install kernerls

You flash them in the recovery.

I know this sounds simple, but make sure you have all other app closed when running high performance games. Always worked for me.

It seems you might cause yourself problems if you don't self educate.
You are not going to get PC type performance and graphics on an N7. But you can still have a great experience if you find out what your device can do. The N7 runs many games well. Some better than others. Tweaking is not always the solution.
Good luck

N64oid and Mupen64 performance

Hi guys
Over the past couple of days I have been testing emulators and have noticed that my nexus 7 can't seem to handle games that my desire HD could handle fine,the main culprits being banjo kazooie/tooie and donkey Kong 64
Has anyone else been struggling with these titles?
I am not rooted yet, would a root/deox/over clock help? Has anyone already tested this?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Its the processor mate, both these apps work exactly the same on my HTC one x which exactly the same processor
Its annoying I know, I'm sure its just the case that it'll have to tweaked by the developer. Fingers crossed he does
Edit: as for rooting/custom ROMs Im using glazed jellybean and it does run slightly better on that
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I thought so :/
Is it something like those apps don't have quad core support?
It is a shame, I think development has stopped on both of them
Are there any other n64 emulators?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Tbh I'll be surprised if N64oid has even dual core support given how much better it worked on my old single core DHD
Sadly I don't know of any other N64 emus
Its a shame as virtually every ROM would probably work smoothly if it was designed for our CPUs. I mean fpse (ps emu) runs at 100fps for me on some games with graphics effects at maximum on both of my tegra 3 devices
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Aww that sucks
Was looking forward to playing Banjo Kazooie again on my tablet
My last question is about overclocking, if these emulators don't have multi core support would overclocking help?
Or has anyone already overclocked and would mind testing this for me?
Sorry for posting this in the wrong place
Does anyone have any experience with over clocking and n64 emulators?
The tegras need special instructions to really be utilized. Have you tried forcing GPU acceleration in development options in settings.

Batman runs terrible on my nexus

Just purchased the game and for my surprise it is running really bad here. Low fps and laggy as hell.
I have been researching and it seems that tegra 3 has some issues with games from gameloft.
Anyone else tried and had problems like this ? I am trying to find a solution for this but so far no luck.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Yeah same. Used different kernels too. It's pretty much unplayable.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Forgot to say that I am using motley kernel. If the problem is with tegra maybe it possible to emulate some other api....
Well...back on looking for a solution....
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
The PowerVR / Adreno 2xx / Mali chips do really well with Gameloft games. I guess nVidia needs to increase their market share before Gameloft shows them any love. My phone is using the Adreno 205 chip, and plays some games better than my Tegra device(which sucks).
If i am not mistaken Chainfire had an app to emulate tegra drives on mali so we could run games like shadowgun.
Maybe the opposite could be done either ?

Heh... maybe
Let me try that ChainFire3D, and report back, because I'd like to think this was 25 cents wasted hahaha
*edit* DO NOT flash ChainFire3D. It sent my tablet into bootloops and had to restore a nandroid. Little bug with this phone won't let you go into recovery from bootloader without it being plugged in.
id say its your setup, its running very smooth here, and lag free. do you have force gpu rendering enabled in the main device settings, developer options? rasbean jelly rom with the latest trinity kernel.
Same here runs great, using paranoid android 2.17 and montley kernel 1.1.1 gpu 484.
Runs horribly for me too. Stock kernel and XenonHD,no over clock. Laggy as hell.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Runs laggy here too on rasbeanjelly stock kernal, Franco kernal seemed to have slightly better performance buts dissapointing that gameloft is having us resort to using custom roms/kernals just to get almost decent performance in there games, back on tegra 2 gameloft games were extremely smoove what happened here?

It seems to be a miss and hit scenario, some report it playable and some report unplayable. Suppose everyone has a different outlook on playable, anyway, Gameloft games aren't optimised for Tegra 3. As leelaa pointed out they only use 1 core, which is pretty annoying. Also this should be in Themes & Apps section?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus, if I helped hit thanks.
batman runs fine here..non-rooted..very mild lag sumtimes..but playable..i have complain bout asphalt 7...low gfx..terrible frame rate...

You are correct they aren't optimized yet, if they were you would see all the HD titles on the wapstore, and there's actually none on there other than the simple free games that they have, but hopefully that changes soon

Ran fine on rooted stock when I bought it a while back. Pretty graphics but it's more like watching a movie with predictive actions. After a few tries got bored and uninstalled it.
I'm on stock unrooted and it works perfectly. Very smooth.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
mine lags... almost unplayable.
Could it be possible that some 'variants' of Nexus 7 runs fine?
Let s try to discover what are the settings of those who runs it smooth and copy it.
I will begin to test it here.

I disabled the force gpu under developer and it got way way better. Now it is playable. My nexus frooze while playing. I will increase the voltage and how it works.
Nice...i will keep testing

Hey thanks for this advice,I just ran into this problem and your advice fixed it. So just wanted to say thank you.

Final Fantasy 7 on Nexus 10 (FPSE)

Anyone gotten this game to work on the N10? Please share your settings/experiences with this game. I tried tweaking the settings ad nauseum as recommended by the folks at their site but can't get anything to work....getting very frustrated.
It was either highly pixelated with software rendering, or really slow with hardware rendering :/ Can't remember specifics though exactly...
I use ePSXE and it runs FFVII perfectly.

I'm installing it now, I'll report back shortly.
EDIT: it runs buttery smooth just as everything else I've tried!
Asphalt 8 smooth as butter even on high,no frame drops anywhere,
modern combat 4 is fantastic too.

I don't own many PSP games but it looks like they work alright.
There were a few sound glitches on a few (this probably has more to do with emulator quality). But the phone smashes through the frames. You even get a decent amount of speed up.
Ppsspp all the way... currently playing dbz n naruto

The nexus 7 is a great device for gaming on android. Graphics are crystal clear and it has a great performance on heavy games like modern combat 4 (At least in my experience). Im not sure if you can use it as a phone, but both devices are up to kit kat now.

You dont have to worry about it, the nexus 7 works great on stock, and you can update it without having to fastboot anything. Just give it a go, you wont be dissapointed. You can check some youtube videos about its performance, its definitively worth it.
