Anyone else tried PSXDroid on their G2?
I tried playing marvel vs capcom, chrono cross, and x=men vs street fighter.
Im using PSX4DROID v 1.3
The sound is super laggy and glitched and games are not running at 100%. However, i have read many comments taht say v1.3 is just a horrible version of the emulator. Anyone else playing and having a good experience?
How does it work?

With sound on, everything is very laggy. but i just saw this video on youtube and his PSX4DROID emulator is running much faster, so i think its the version i have.

Well try the older version... because you know its NOT the phone. The G2 is the most powerful android phone out there, period. Let us know your results... I was thinking about getting it but heard its too buggy for use.
When I first got the G2 I tried out Chrono Cross on psx4droid. It ran very well, although I did have the sound off (not a fan of annoying sounds while playing games on my phone).
But after updating psx4droid from the market yesterday, the emulator runs very poorly. Hopefully the dev undoes whatever he changed so that it will start running well again.

Yeah, it might be the update. From past experience with many emulators, sound off always runs better. The problem is not that the g2 can't handle ps games but it has to emulate them in a player than runs inside android if that makes any sense. In other words native games like nova or heavy gunner which are graphic equivilant to ps games run better because they run pretty much natively. Where ps games are ran inside a emulator coded to run natively in android. I know that explanation is poor but you get the point. The ps emulator is relatively new too compared to the others. But ps games are pushing the limits... have you heard if any N64 emulators that run well or at all yet?
well, either find a better warez source to update to 1.5, or stop being cheap and buy the app from market; sound is crappy, but when it is off ff9 and chrono cross run very smooth

Newest ver on the market is 1.5 (you know that though since you purchased it )
Ran 1.5 today w/ ROMS on class(6) and it was about the same performance I believe: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=802147
Haven't tested with sound much, but on my G2 with psx4droid 1.1 I've been playing:
FFVII
FF Tactics
Megaman Legends
all with no problems, great playability
I purchased it (support your developers, anusholes), but it does seem laggy and sound is glitchy when I play parappa the rappa. Haven't tried any other games.
I have had extensive experience comparing the galaxy phones to the g2 performance in psx4droid. First of version 1.1 is the fastest. It is also the buggiest. On psx4droid 1.1 the g2 does very playable speeds on all games but really heavy polygonal games like fighters and whatnot. Zodttd released versions 1.3 and 1.4 that were much slower while trying to fix bugs. Now 1.5 is the best balance. Only slightly slower than 1.1 but slow
enough to make a lot of games unenjoyable on the g2 while the galaxy phones are able to keep up. Side by side they are like 30 percent faster than the g2 in psx4droid. Im hoping for root soon so we can overclock.

Thanks, this was very helpful
i'm currently running Tmobile G2 overclocked to 1.45 GHZ using a root module, and unfortunately psx4droid 1.61 is playing horridly aweful =(. This was an upgrade from 1.5, which played phenomenially better than 1.61. In 1.5 if the CPU could not process enough power (logically), the game would be a little slower, however 1.61 has sound that is TOO FAST for ALL games, with slow graphics (wtf)?. So in other words, My sound for the game is INCREDIBLY fast, while the in game graphics are sloooww to a crawl. Is there anyone that's willing to host the psx4droid 1.5 apk for me to obtain? I've bought this emulator expecting only improvement, not drawback =(
Hello there, community!
This is my first post on xda forums and I will try to make it quick.
I'm looking for a fast ROM that will run smoothly sacrificing more unneeded features and options. I found stock 4.0.3 rom stuttering and lagging from time to time, even in Contacts section.
With no work in the background, my LG has around 80-100 RAM left, which I'd like to increase. I also plan on running some more advanced 3d games, so a little overclock would also be nice - I know this CPU is already oc'd from 800 to 1000 mhz but maybe it's worth trying to push it a bit more and take the weight off by disabling CPU rendering in favor of the GPU (I mean this great performance boost everyone is talking about when you force GPU rendering). If it works the way I think and with the GPU taking care of all the rendering, maybe processor won't heat so much and could be overclocked above 1 Ghz. What do you guys think?
In short, I'm looking for a fast ROM with a gaming and overclocking potential. Thanks in advance for the replies!
I use Slimbean 4.1.2 and it's really smooth and fast!
It's also perfect for my gaming needs but I don't really know what games you're after though!
Give it a try, you will certainly like it!

Well, I'm looking for overall better performance. For example on this stock rom, in the game Galaxy on Fire sound and interface lags etc. I found it odd that some simple games like Jetpack Joyride often stutter during gameplay, but Rayman Jungle Run with much better sound and graphics runs smoothly.
I'll check the rom you mentioned. Any more sugestions?
You should give a try to PAC ROM 4.3.Even it has some bugs,I found it smoother than I thought.After it will become stable,it will be one of the best or even the best ROM as performances.
Hello!
I got my g pad a few days ago and I got it rooted running xposed with greenidy and G2 modules with nova launcher. Antutu scored about 23600 and performence is pretty great excpet for one thing : gaming.
Most if not all Games are laggy, some start laggy and some become Luggy after a few seconds.
What should I do?

GTA San Andreas is laggy on my GPad then I tried to flash custom rom then the game became smooth on max settings
Mine also. i have several that freeze up but work perfect on a custom rom. Rayman jungle run and reckless racing 2 amongst others. kinda sucks as i like the lg rom.
I play asphalt 7 and 8 also real racing 3 and gt racing 2 with no problem at all.
That's true. But If a quad-core snapdragon 600 clocked 1.7ghz and 2gb of RAM can't handle a game smoothly then I think that's the optimization of the app's fault, not the hardware. My San Andreas also lags, at half resolution, medium details and 70% draw distance. That sucks : /. Order and Chaos Online is so laggy that it's taking away any joy from playing, while a LG L9 with 2x1Ghz handles it perfectly...... I think this is unacceptable that a flagship device has such issues

Is it laggy from the start or after a minute of playing? Seems that this tablet gets hot quickly and keeps throttling CPU/GPU
Real boxing lags for me sometimes. Other games like Riptide GP2, Injustice, and Modern Combat 4 all play perfectly though.
Those games are laggy:
BADLAND, Pivvot, Subway Surfers (A little bit), Rayman Jungle Run (Half of the time buttery smooth, other half laggy)
But after further testing I found out:
I also have games that don't lag: Modern Combat 4 (which is very demanding!), Zynga Poker (but a galaxy s wouldn't lag on that one), Lumber Jacked, Reaper.
I guess it's a compability issue, hope I could get better performence on AOSP ROMs (although I heard they have a gaming problem, maybe it will be sorted out soon)
Just installed latest cmb rom, all games are buttery smooth.
I laugh at lag's face now.
Only problem : pivvot doesn't respond to touch. Oh well, probably a 4.4.2 compatibility issue
it plays even intensive games like Asphalt 8: Airborne well, and nothing ever felt overly laggy. But stock KitKat clearly comes with a huge speed boost, and switching from one model to the other for days at a time, I always noticed the difference.

Yeah, Absolutley NO LAG on kitkat. The S600 is truly superior.
Gaming..

Is the S600 another model type of this tab ? Anyhow after a week of using the tablet and reading and using and Romming and ...you get it.I have noticed lags here and there w/ certain games , YouTube etc but Browsing is good. Gaming depends on what game you play Nova 3 lags a little not as smooth as N7 , Nitro Nation is fine lags here and there no biggie, injustice lags some,Dead Trigger 2 is OK doesn't really lag very much but I haven't installed the graphics mod either .Deer hunter stutters a bit,Respawnables, shadowgun super smooth online or off My experience so far.
Well I'm on Malladus 1.2.5, and I have absolutely no lag at all. RR3 runs perfectly smooth during the races (but the graphics seem to be in low settings everywhere, so that shouldn't come as a surprise), Angry Birds Go is equally good, and Asphalt 8 is perfect in high settings. I did have some lags on all of them while I was on stock though.
I also tried CM11, and apart from some games that just wouldn't launch, all of the above ran perfectly.

Could you two me about Malladus 1.2.5? Do all stock features work? Can you do apps to sd sym linking? Will this prevent lg app updates... How is battery life improved
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using Tapatalk
Yes, all stock features work if you flash the LG apps with the Rom. As far as I can tell, it's a custom stock rom, with a bit of optimizations and tweaks.
I don't know about SD sym linking. I'm assuming you're talking about Link2SD ability to create a link with your external SD card, and I can't see why it wouldn't work.
Battery life seems to be a bit better, but it could be a placebo effect.
Hello,
i downloaded a few games and i`m surprised that on Snap800 are some lags...
Assassins Creed Pirates
GTA San Andreas
at last this 2 game has lagged for me and idk why? can anyone help?
If games are not optimised for the chip, lag will occur. If games aren't properly coded or graphically intensive the phone will use a lot of processing power and heat up quickly. Then it will start throttling the CPU to avoid overheating.

Ok, thanks for answer... but can be removed some lags via changing rom? cuz im now at stock wit no root and maybe such lags?its really noticable
Try disabling thermal throttling. I would consider this a design flaw

i dont want warm phone for this games, i already have disabled high temp off, if ut suggestion wont warm phone ill do it
actually on GTA not so many lags as on assassin xD bu gta sucks as his gameplay so not so interesting game, im worry about assassin lag its sometime goes really noticable but still playble but i saw that that game was running smooth on nexus 7 abt interesting wrf with ubisoft that cannot make game optimized x.x or aaah im confused what ti do that not warm phone and makes games smooth
hello guys,
I have recently bought G2 D802 and i have found the same type of lagging in my device to, previously i was using S3 and S4 and gaming was smooth in both of my previous devices. I play games which do not have high graphics like Temple run 2, Granny Smith and Banana Kong.
It is such a costly device and i am ruing the day i bought this device because i also dont like the camera result of my G2, hoping that update will resolve this problem....
try setting down_differential to 70 in ondemand settings. this stops the CPU frequency jumping up and down so much
you can use apps like trickster to do this easily, but you need to be rooted
remember to turn it back to 10 after playing your games for better battery efficiency
edit.. oops, sorry I brought up an old thread, I forgot I was looking at search results
Good day everyone, im using g9350, on toxic rom and using mtweaks. I'm a heavy gamer, always wanting that smooth gaming experience but I have a problem when it comes playing, it lags alot when my device gets a little hot and its annoying. Can anyone recommend me the settings to keep the game smooth and yet it won't lag even if it heats up? Any tweaks i can do?
Buy a console, phones games are crappy, just good graphics...
