Galaxy 5 has a graphics chip...thus it works ....unlike g3 which don't have graphics chip but depends on open gl drivers....
sent from the amazing galaxy 3

still wondering why people open their mouth without knowing what the heck their talking about...
3D games wont work on our SG3 or will work but with many problems.
My advice is dont waste money on 3D games (requires 3d video support) for sg3.

Thumder racing can i play perfectly my sg3 is overclocked to
1,3 ghz look after buraks rom 1.5
But why can play the g5 nfs shift and the sg3 not???

It depends where did you get those games. Some/most pirated versions have white textures because they are not pirated correctly. Download a legit version and you'll be fine. Maybe legit nfs works, I'm old enough not to try it, it's 200 + mb! Raging thunder 1 and 2 work without any issues on Froyo.
Why nfs does not work on Sg3 is a question you should ask Gameloft.
And for the last time, Sg3 has a GPU!

use wifi to download the 150 mb gamedata and you should be fine.. If it doesn't work, search for "nfs shift best android downloads" in google.. You can download the gamedata from there and put in the sdcard.. Good luck

Anyone tried gaming on this phone?

I wonder how well riptide gp performs on the snapdragon s4 with Adreno 225. Something is wrong with the GS3 international version. It's very choppy when there are other jetskis on screen.

Even in race mode? Have you tried dead space? Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm also quite curious, will get around to testing it out soon

Downloaded riptide today, the graphics were top notch and no lag at all...also you guys should check out Dead Trigger its really sweet.

Tried Shadow Gun and Front Line Commando both very good with excellent gfx.

Lol this thing SEEMS to destroy my tegra 3 tablet in gaming. Ultra smooth

That's good to hear. Now if only there's a way to test the actual fps in a game. I doubt the Egypt off screen benchmarks that reviews trend to use paints an accurate picture of gaming performance. The Adreno 225 performs poorly in off screen test compared to Tegra 3 and Mali400.

Is Nova 3 compatible yet? Btw do games look better on the screen with more pixels ? or about the same as before? Jw since I do not have the phone yet >_<!

Nova3 is awesome on this phone! Super nice graphics. Looked weird on my Atrix4g but silky smooth on the GS3LTE
Also tested Mass Effect Infiltrator with fantastic results.

Downloaded the new Dead Trigger today. Works well with my sixaxis PS3 controller and the game runs like butter! Crazy graphics that rival the ps Vita. Seriously.

Riptide works super smooth... However Dead Space isn't working... It installs but crashes after 20 seconds of the game... Unless someone knows a workaround?

How do you connect this games with a ps3 controller

Is there evidence of added visuals? I wonder if running through Chainfire will add anything to the game.

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.

3d games you play?

Hey guys, after successfully overclocking to 1.7 ghz, with I have been on the lookout for a 3d game that might challenge this processor. Any suggestions?
Also, I'm trying to determine whether or not the gpu was overclocked with the ts alpha 96 kernel I flashed? I'm assuming no.

Check out Dead Trigger, it's free and pretty awesome graphics.
Most kernels aren't overclocked by default.

Right, I had too use the trinity app to actually overclock. What app would i use for a gpu overclock? I'll try dead trigger
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Try Asphalt or Temple Run

Dead Trigger is a good choice. Any THD optimized game should heat up the device just fine.

Try E. Warriors 2

Download the tegrazone app which features all new tegra games
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app

Nova3 or shadowgun thd are the most graphic intense games out now. or mass effect infiltrator. dead trigger good but its graphics wont tax system as much as those listed oreviously.

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 ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

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.

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
