Does anyone know why on my nexus 4 it shows the extra graphics/ effects but doesn't on my nexus 7?

GPU
its because the adreno 320 is a much better gpu then tegra 3 i think its about 2.5x stronger so if gameloft put max graphics on nexus 7 it would lag
Wrong by a long shot!!! Tegra is one of the best CPU's around, just gotta tweak it. Also for your answer try a different ROM and kernel. Should help!!

I own both a nexus 7 and N4 and the nexus 4 is a lot faster even with the n4 CPU @800 and n7 CPU @1500 its still faster than the n7 in graphics
EDIt: anyone with a brain knows S4Pro is a. much stronger soc than tegra 3 do you work for nvidia or something oh yeahs when's the last time nvidia released drivers that's right never
Is there any way to improve the graphics?

You can find modded APKs (I am not gonna link them) but 90% of the time they won't work. You can try editing some config file in the data directory. Dunno which though.

Anyone out there have NOVA 3 on their tablet and is it working better now? Is it playable? Is it enjoyable? Worth buying? Thanks!
I tried it a while back... still laggy as crap.

It's my understanding that Gameloft games are not optimized for our devices with multi-core processors.. I play it from time to time..isn't too bad..but should be better. Gameloft is a more apple-biased company with much less support for android.

I have in and with a different kernel and an overclocked GPU, of ran pretty good but still not as good as the iPad or Samsung tablets. I've heard its because the tegra GPU doesn't have as much raw power as the others, and it was developed for the iPad first so its just a really bad port to the nexus 7
I wanted to know if there was a way to find out if all 4 cores are working on my nexus 4?
an app like System Panel will tell you
Get prefmon . seriously awesome for checking the cores in real time

Is the N7 is a good tablet for Gaming?
I thinking on getting tablet but the main use would be for gaming.
Or should I get another tablet?
The price of this tablet is one cheaper out there, if have you have another option tell me.
Thanks in advance.
Lol really? Let see, 4 core tegra 3, 1.3 GHz, 1gb ram, hogy 12 gpu.
Short answer is yes.

I game on mine pretty often. Plays pretty much anything.

It's a perfect tablet for portable gaming

All I have to really say is Tegra 3. 1GB of RAM? No problem. Small device.
I mainly ONLY use mine for gaming. Perfect size and it runs smoothly.
Thanks for your help, I'm getting N7 soon.

Anytime the Nexus 7 can handle anything you throw at it gamewise.

I have had no problems at all with my nexus plays anything and everything easy. I find 7" easier than 10" for tablet gaming.
My one recomendation would be get the 32gb nexus cause 16 aint enough if your gaming. Most games are coming in around 2gb each for the top games anyway.
Best tablet for gaming <3
If it was a 412MHz ARM9 with a Adreno 130 I'd we worried. Its a Quad Core T30L so tamed are pretty smooth with only a few dropped frames.

Yep, I strictly use mine for gaming.
I like to think of my Nexus 7 as a "Multimedia Consumption Device"
I use it for Gaming, Movies, FB, Music, Instagram, YouTube, Tumblr, you name it. If it's gaming, social, pictures, music or video it's on my Nexus.
It'll be just fine for anything.

UI still runs super smooth at 128MHz, so will setting it to this have any major positive effect on battery life? If not playing games I'm guessing u won't really need all that GPU power.

Well, in technical terms it *should* give you better battery life because it's reducing stress on a main hardware component so it doesn't have to work as hard (the harder it works, the more battery it takes). Same thing with the screen; the lower the brightness, the better the battery.

Wouldn't it have to work harder for longer because it can't do anything as fast? It isn't like if you set the GPU clock to 487mhz it runs at 487mhz all the time, so ramping up to 487mhz would allow it to finish whatever it is doing faster wouldn't it?

Then wouldn't it be the same with the CPU? When I answered I was thinking like how a CPU would work. I understand your thinking though.

Well I would like to add that the 540 sgx can power the 720P in the Galaxy Nexus... That dino is significantly weaker than the Adreno 320 even over clocked. I run 128 only and it works fine for games and even HD videos(YouTube). To confirm I tried Most wanted, dead trigger, temple run, riptide,etc and there weren't any issues(also toggled vSync). And if you use benchmarks like Epic cidel or antutu you'll see the frames are still pretty high.
So I'll say that 128 or even 200mhz is sufficient for this GPU and most purposes. However a good I/o scheduler and governor are still recommended.

I think another advantage if it runs what you want at a good frame rate is less heat.
Hi people
Ive been using nexus for a year now.
And it is the best device I ever used.
However Im getting bored of this phone a bit >< and I thought of moving on.
Do you guys have any devices you are looking forward to?
P.s. Hows xperia z compared to our nexus 4?
Display and camera seems better but Im not sure for other stuff

Note 3 is amazing. It would be a dream in Google edition.

If you just want a faster device with higher resolution I would suggest LG G2/N5.

Be aware that LG ponies never see more than one update. Even the flagship device.

I feel like everything is a little "undercooked" now.
64bit CPU's are on the way.
4K Displays are in the discussion while the GPU's would still not be powerful enough to drive games on them in a serious way.
Nvidia and Qualcomm start adding new GPU features like Desktop Open Gl, Tesselation. Meanwhile Snapdragon's OpenGl Es 3.0 drivers are still broken and unusable.
Intel wants to enter the ARM market and could bring some really good CPU's.
It is time for the manufacturing tech to go below 28nm, which has been used for quite a while and is still used in Snapdragon 805 and Tegra K1. It could save some serious Watts.
The HEVC/H265 video codec is on the way, and until now only the Snapdragon 805 can handle it.
The European GPS System Galileo is supposed to start this year, yet none of the phones features support for it.
And then there is always the simple truth that the Nexus 4 is still incredibly powerful and fast.
You could argue, that tech always develops incredibly fast, but I will wait and see how it works out until 2015.
I made myself a list of "must have" features, before I buy a new phone again.

Umm I guess I just want to try new phones. Nexus 4 is still powerful and fulfills my needs but I want to experience other new phones in the market
