Hello i was going to buy the Asus padfone 2 when i saw it on the internet but after i saw the tablet resolution and the HTC One i decided to buy HTC One with a Nexus 7 but my question is the nexus 7 laggy for me i play a lot of games like Dead trigger N.O.V.A 3 and Shadowgun and Fifa 13
so i will install like 80+ games is it laggy for this kind of user???
Well there's no lag in games like Shadow gun and ravensword. It can pretty much handle every android game I throw at it and also emulates ps1 and N64 very well.

I should also note that N.O.V. A 3 runs spectacularly. I'm running smooth rom and Franco kernel which helps a lot too.
what i mean is not if it laggs in the game or not i mean after installing all this games will it lagg when am using chrome or any other thing
I would say that the Nexus 7 is not a perfect gaming device, and it is definitely not "lag-free" when you are stock. When I was stock I also figured that chrome was a bit laggy, so I recommend dolphin browser.
If you have any browser opened, it should not affect the gaming too much, but it is optimal to have none apps opened. Android have a really good multitasking system, so it should be no problem actually.
Well the n7 isn't going to have any more than 32gb. So it would be pretty impossible to install 80+ games on it, and as with any device, it will slow down substantially once your hard drive is almost full. I wouldn't suggest buying it if you need all of those games installed at once.

I've basically been playing a few games like asphalt 7&8 and modern combat 4 and I've noticed that it doesn't really perform well. MC4 and asphalt 7 ran quite well with occasional stutters, but overall it's quite smooth. On asphalt 7, if I were to go to the homescreen and back into the game, the accelerometer will become laggy, like... the car would take 1/2 a second to turn when I tilt the device instead of instantly. The device also gets very hot on asphalt 7. On asphalt 8, the screen transitions in games are not smooth at all, and in game I would have frequent framerate drops to 20+. I've watched youtube videos of G2 playing asphalt 8 and they never had that problem. The phone doesn't get very hot but it still is slow. Anyone else had performance problems with gaming? I'm really bummed cos I can't exchange it. :crying::crying::crying:
Is there some kind of Power Saving mode on the G2?
I don't own the phone yet, but On the Galaxy devices you have Power Saving toggle that will underclock the CPU causing games to run like crap.
Strange, because I play all games smooth and maxed out on my G2 (international).
Played modern combat for 1 hour straight no lag
Best device i played this game on as well, actually feels a little smoother than my nexus 10.
No lag and no heat.
I play those two games as well. No issues on my g2. The accelerometer is a bit laggy though I guess.

I'm pretty sure these games just have bad optimisation for Snapdragon 800, and people just are used to gaming at low framerates, because this and this is exactly the type of stuff I see too. Remember that YouTube is limited to 30 fps, but you can still see how this dips to 15 at times, which just shouldn't be possible on a Snapdragon 800 as we can see that this game runs butter smooth. Might also be the dreadful thermal throttling, that LG really need to fix.

It might also be that something is wrong with the device, in which case I also have a problem

Does GTA still lags so badly on G2?
On nexus 5 (same s800 soc) it's much better:

Testing GTA III to see whether I should get a new one now. Would you say it runs at 60 FPS on stock firmware? Would it be possible for you to film you playing it and upload it for me? (send the file, YouTube is rubbish for showing how a game runs)

Testing Vice City on G2 gave me abysmal performance. If GTA III runs this bad too, I will get another unit and test further. I hope my unit is faulty, otherwise LG really needs to bring 4.4 to G2 and fix it.

Maybe it's because LG is lowering gpu frequency to save battery, have you tried a custom kernel?

You can also try this:
1) In the dialer write 3845#*802#
2) Set High Temperature Property to ON
3) power off the G2 and wait 10 seconds, then reboot
Let me know if it works, thanks.

Done testing GTA III on G2. Did a factory reset afnd got bad performance again. Not as bad as Vice City, it still stuttered when loading textures and I experienced some pop-ins and overall sluggishness.

First of all, thanks for the help, I appreciate it
Second of all, after trying this, it didn't fix the problems I had with Vice City at all. I guess I'll have to take it to the store tomorrow for replacement and if it still doesn't work I'll wait for an update to roll out. No way this baby isn't gonna be mine.
I can tell you I've tested 3 g2s 1 was a att version 2 were T-Mobile . 1 was stock other 2 were rooted and running a custom ROM. I only play 1 game, clash of clans .. I can only go a few mins and the phone heats up a lot and the screen becomes laggy to the point I have to shut the game off for a few mins. so its def a issue with this phone. And I've played that game on like 6 androids and I phones and never had this issue.

This seems to be a general issue with the phone, so I guess LG will fix it when they bring 4.4 to it. Will try and get another G2 today to see whether I got unlucky with my first.
OP, sorry for hijacking, what I really wanted was to check whether it's an issue with the phone or whether it's an issue with our specific phones.
My guess is its just these phones in general .

Bad kernel, bad optimization from both LG and the game devs and old Android version. The hardware is great, everything else... Not so much.

Went and got myself another unit. Still has the same problems. LG ought to fix this.
Dead Trigger 1 & 2 runs perfectly smooth, but Doodle Jump occasionally stutters.
for me i cant wait to play openTTD , Plague , psx games etc
what games are you going to play?
Whichever poker game is flavor of the month.
Emulators!
I really hope that this device will support MHL 3.0!
Clash of Clans for sure. It's one of those games that's begging for a hi-res tablet. Should be a HUGE upgrade from playing on my Nexus 5.
I also want to check out that new Sim City Build It game to see how it is. EA touts it as being "optimized for tablets". Lots of 3d buildings on-screen that should take advantage of the Tegra K1 chip.
I think building games in general benefit the most from a good tablet.
smash bros melee + 2 dualshok 3 controllers, connected with bluetooth endless fun!
and afcourse mario card double dash
Going to play with this:
Moga Pro Power
:highfive:
Not really going to play games on it
Maybe TWD S2 since i beat S1 on the 360
I like to play strategy games, business games like transport tycoon, also red alert type games.
got this device for games...
sat on the plane last trip only able to play emulators on my phone... cant wait for the larger screen size and power
as many games as i can fit on it, emulators (game boy, psx, n64, etc)
i really don't know what's the problem here.
I tried some games and this phone lags here and there while in these apps. If this would have been a mid range phone i wouldv tought that those apps were made for high end smartphones,but this phone it's a beast,it has better scores that gaming tablets -
My question is why are games like Fifa 2016 (the new edition ) ; Heartstone etc lagging? Bad optimization?
Please leave your opinions below and post here any info about any game that's lagging on your s7 edge so we can test it and post our personal opinions.
I want to purchase the McLaren Edition soon but I was wondering if any of you play Golf Clash? I would like to know how game play of golf clash is on this device? Is there any issues what so ever? Thanks
It plays just fine.
I played that game everyday for a while. No issues whatsoever. Ran great.
I guess I kinda figured it would play ok but maybe I should have been more specific? Is there any sort of lag or needle skips ever while playing the game? Also what does the actual screen look like with the notch? Is there any issues there at all? If anyone could can you post up a picture or two of what it actually looks like on the screen? Thanks guys
