GTA San Andreas on Note 4 sd805 - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
As we all know by now, SA doesn't work quite well with our devices. Reason? God knows. Hopefully lollipop will change it with art or new drivers, maybe Rockstar will release some optimalisation update, whatever...
For the time being try to set the graphics options as on my screen shot and have fun..
The game still looks great and works pretty damn well. Enjoy.

If you use art naybe you should revert back to dalvik
If you enable power saving mode when play, turn it off

GTA SA is my all time favorite game- No issues with the Octa version SM-N910C completed the game and now playing again LOL. Maybe ur using art, also clean ur memory before playing, lemme know if it works

Ya ive been thinking of getting megaman x6 bassman, hows dino crisis? and legend of dragoon icebear?
I've been playing Metal Gear Solid, brought back allot of memories.
However on my way to fight Metal Gear it asks for Disc 2, i eject load disc 2 but it states wrong disc, am i doing something wrong?
Would love to complete again, just so i can say i did on my phone!
I haven't ran Legend of Dragoon on Fpse, but as for the game itself, it's one of my favorite RPGs. Great graphics (for its time), I loved the battle system, and the story was great. Good range of likable characters.

You should, man. I've owned every Megaman game up to X 7, so that's been pretty much all I've been playing.
I haven't bothered with X 4 yet....*shudders* lol

Right my setup for FPSE:
SYSTEM
Bios: SCPH1001
Country: Europe
Mdec Acceleration: Ticked
Gte Acceleration: Ticked
Fast booting: Ticked
HLE: Unticked
Boost Mode: Unticked
Not changed default save / memory:
AUDIO
No sound: Unticked
Spu Sync: Ticked
VIDEO
Framelimiter: Ticked
Frameskip: No frameskip
Frameskip fix: Ticked
Screen filtering: Unticked
Screensize: Fullscreen
Brightness boost: 125 percent
Sharp overlay drawing: Unticked
Screen Orientation: Landscape
Print FPS: Unticked
Invert Colours: Ticked
Enhanced 3D Rendering: Ticked
INPUT
Hardware keys (Obviously same as pad)
Touchscreen:
Draw button 2: Ticked (L1 & L2 onscreen)
Draw button 3: Ticked (R1 & R2 onscreen)
Force feedback: High
This is my default setup and all games i've tried including Metal Gear have worked.
I do switch off Enhanced 3D Rendering on 2D games such as capcom VS SNK (fixes few graphic hiccups)
I do switch off Frameskip fix on Star wars rebel assault (seems to fix sound sync in videos)
Hope this helps and you succeed with Metal Gear.
One last thing to note about metal gear, the graphics do bleed allot in big action sequences, could not find a way to fix this. Still enjoyable to play.
I would like to see an option for just the L1 and R1 or just L2 and R2 to be on the bottom corners of the screen. I guess I could try adding all 4 and mapping the R and L buttons to R2 and L2.
I am also having trouble with the button mapping. It doesn’t save and is a real pain setting up each time I play.
So far I have been playing Spiderman 2 on FPSE.
Have you added a new profile before saving our just clicked save? I did that my first time playing and got mad when it didn't save. Then I realized you have to create a profile to save to first.

Profile? Save?
LOL I don't even have a save. I go into the settings and set them then use the back button. I looked and didn't see a save button. I'll have to look again.
Thanks
Edit: I found a save in the menu but I get "Warning: Only in BIOS mode"
Saving for games and saving a profile are different. It sounds like you need to load a new BIOS to save games, but to save a profile, go to settings>system>default config save. Sorry I was confused for a second. Hope I'm not confused again.
Fixed. Thanks

Games not working as they are supposed to...

Hi friends, this is my first thread in this forum and i'm a complete noob in android.
i got my note 2 on 7 dec and it has been running nicely but i got a problem from some 1 to 2 days ago, i have some games in my phone and have been playing since i got the phone but now there's a problem, when i play each game it gets stuck for few milliseconds then running with more than normal speed and this process is going on continuously(i.e. stopping for some ms and running with more than normal speed again and again, so we can say in general that the games are running with more than normal speed)
Please help me on this one and provide some solution, thanks in advance

I think I might be having this same problem, though not with the same gravity as you do. For instance, sometimes while playing something like Temple Run, the game will get stuck for a few milliseconds and then as soon as it starts again the game would run on super speed for a few milliseconds, thus essentially resulting in the death of my character as I wouldn't be able to control it. It's almost as if the system is compensating for being sruck fir those few milli seconds. But this happens once in maybe 10 games, and I haven't yet seen it in any other game. This never used to happen when I was playing the same game on any other android devices I had. Maybe it's a bug in some note 2 decices, or maybe a bug in the game itself?

Those who help noobs go to heaven. True story.
can this be because of some app i installed?
and @SacGuru in my phone it is happening the same but really fast and continuously so you know there's continuity but because of constantly getting stuck it does not make the game look good and also this happening all of the games, and when i tried uninstalling and installing again it didnt solve my problem but what it did was delete all my savegames
oh hey guys i just figured out the problem, sorry for your time lol, it was an app which used to start power saving mode on its own i turned it off a few times and then i got suspicious and found the app and changed its settings and now everything is working fine
BTW thanks for your help
I told you so ...lol. ....anyways good to be of help

[Q] Games like Temple Run,Temple Run 2,GTA Vice City Lags [Minor Lags[

Hello Everybody,
Well,I guess its over a month since I've bought my smartphone [Grand 2] but I am noticing very minor lags on even low end games.
Well,Grand 2 is well equipped with quite good specifications but Still games like Temple run,Temple run 2,GTA Vice City is lagging.Though,The lags are very minor.Touch is responsive but there's a lil lag in Graphics rendering.
I don't why its happening so,
I tried almost each and everything- Disabled Bloatwares [NO ROOT],Disable S Voice,No widgets at Home Screen,Tried clearing RAM before each gameplay,Changed Windows and Animation scales to "OFF" in Developers Settings but still there no such effect.
I also own a Nexus 7 but I am able to play each and every game without any lag even GTA SAN and GTA VC.
I don't know what's the issue with this Samsung Galaxy Grand 2.
Can anyone please help me out of this trouble?
I am really regretting right now that Why I am bought this smartphone.
Thank you!!
Thats weird. I've been playing a lot of Low-end as well as High-end games on Grand 2 and Rarely experience any lags.
I'm not really sure if this works :fingers-crossed: but you can try downloading Clean Master from the play store. It provides a Game booster feature which says that it'll speed up your games by up to 25%. You can add a game booster shortcut folder on your homescreen and whenever you start games from this folder, it'll speed em up.
I am sure you would have checked it but still, did you bychance have the power saving mode on?

update to the latest version this lag had been fixed. and while playing game disabled power saving mode ,close all the running apps and do force stop and clear ram and sometimes phone memory get fulled also caused phone slow so see ur internal memory as well.
Do you mean, HD games want to play well & smooth on midrange smartphone?
Just try to disable unwanted apps like samsung apps etc...
In my experience, maintain ram free above 500mb. Now i can able to play games smooth & without more lag.

Galaxy s7 edge performance problem

Hi I just bought galaxy s7 edge, phone is amazing but the biggest issue is performance, most games dropping frames below 30fps even temple run 2 or candy crush soda, sky force, heartstone etc. These games where running on may galaxy s5 smooth I'm really disappointed right now and don't know what to do. Is it a hardware or software issue? Can u help me please?
temple run and candy crush works fine on my phone
ye GS7 has the worst gaming performance in flagship device for years, there is not much u can do without root, and even with root the solution is not optimal to use.
U can however disable gameservice which might help or not, u need package disable pro in order to do so if u don't have root.
You mean best gaming perform. Zero issues here
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
no one of the worst, the fact that u don't have issues does not mean it's working perfect, u might not be able to see it.
Again not all games effected, mine games currently are Tekken on PPSSPP and Angry birds 2 on high levels 200+, both lags so bad it's not funny, Note 5 on 5.1.1 was light years ahead of S7.

i did everything, i can prove that it's the software that throttling the phone, not hardware.
If u disable DVFS via root, 85% of the lag is gone just like that.

I just give up to play Need for Speed No Limits on my S7 Edge Exynos. Is just impossible to play after 5 minutes.
Just as a information I played the same game on a old Galaxy S4 Mini witch has much lower hardware specs, and no problems at all. Samsung just lie when says a S7 is a phone for games
the hardware is there, the software is limiting and yes that annoying, guys just spam their twitter account and try to go to higher ranks, if we all work together something might happen.
Make sure you don't have any accessibility services enabled. I had to have it enabled for a swipe down to open the notification drawer in my launcher, but discovered that enabling any accessibility service really slows down the entire phone.

S7 Edge Exynos GPU throttle

I've been using s7 exynos variant for quite some time and it's a very nice phone but there's one huge problem with it, when I start playing some games like modern combat 5, Hit etc at first I get 60 fps then after some time the performance drops. It's probably due to aggressive gpu throttle as the device barely gets warm. Is there any way to disable the gpu throttle?

My phone is rooted with xposed installed so I'm ready to make some modifications to the system
BUMP
Firstly, i have no idea what modifications you could make as i dont have any issues like what you report.
Secondly, modifying any throttling is inherently dangerous. A slight tweak and your phone could overheat and batteries tend to explode when overheated! You've been warned!
I would suggest you look at whether its an app issue before doing something that could brick, damage or destroy you phone. Its also kinda jumping the gun a little to say straight away its GPU throttling as it could be CPU doing work of the GPU due to a dev error (and thats seriously slow!) or even a delay due to loading graphics from an SD card etc.
Also, it could very well be root related...

Try uninstalling xposed and be happy with a phone which works as it should (and gain the ~25% performance lost because of xposed...)

Thanks but I have had this problem before installing xposed
It's not root related, i know exactly what you're talking about. I sold my S6, got an S7 just because of this problem. Exact same problem. Now i have the S7 edge, still the same. I dont know what's the problem, but it's very annoying.
Works fine on my shield tablet though
All i can suggest now is to wait for Modern Combat Versus, hopefully it will be better optimised, with Vulkan support
Update : So I recently updated my phone with Nougat and the problem still exists BUT I have noticed something weird, As I said before the game loses fps in less than a minute (it's still quite playable but it's definitely not 60fps), when I press the recent button/key and jump out of the game and press it again and get right into it again I start getting 60fps, then again after a minute I lose the frames.

Been waiting for more than half year for the fix or solution without rooting

I think I've found a solution but it requires root. if your device is rooted then install any kernel manager that supports your rom (I use EX Kernel Manager) and choose the "high performance" profile for both the cpu and gpu. no overclocking is required. now I get full fps all the time. Actually the device throttles the cpu after some time when a resource heavy app is launched (I've done my own testing with on-screen cpu monitor app) so selecting a high performance profile disables the throttling but keep in mind, the device tends to get hotter than usual but not too much. hope this helps
