Having gaming performance issues after updating to Oreo. Is there anyway to improve games to make them run smoother?
Any particular game or just all? As i don't encounter any issues in gaming.

Mainly with hearthstone but sometimes other games have some lag spikes
South Park Phone Destroyer has started lagging for me since the upgrade.

Gl tools might do the trick...I've used it before in my older devices. U can lower the graphic settings of the app but u won't even notice the difference!! GL tools is very good app
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2604723
This is a paid app
But the developer was kind enough to provide us with an XDA developer version of the same app
Pls do support him !!!
I do not take credit for any of those works
Don't mess around too much cus it could cause bootloops ...pls don't forget to take a backup
I'm on nougat and it doesn't work bud, I can't get passed the 3 check marks to install. Bought the app too and tried to do the steps and it just crashes the game...

I think that Minicm is the best rom for gaming

CM is pretty smooth, fast and overclockable, Cyanogenmod would be my first choice for a fast, stable ROM that's good for games. Carbon is also nice, but Slim is also a good choice because it doesn't use nor take up lots of space. After you choose your ROM you can also use Greenify to hibernate apps consuming processor speed too.
Just bought Asphalt 8, honestly expected it to run flawlessly on my Black GS4-i9500 but that was not the case. Installation was fine, but game is really laggy and the graphic is kind of messed up and unstable. It's like the graphic card is not powerful enough to run it at full speed. I'm playing on default settings and I made sure there is no other application running besides Airborne. My phone is a genuine one and have not rooted it. It's the same for Minion Rush and Asphalt 7.
What might be causing this problem according to you guys and is there any way to fix this?
Many thanks.

Had no lags like this on stock. Everything ran flawlessly.
but smearing issue bothered me so I rooted it and installed perseus kernel. Everything is fast as hell. And using wanam rom.
try a factory reset. Then update to latest ota. And test again.
There is no such thing called "lag" on my I9500, on GE Port or stock Touchwiz.
But yes, my phone is rooted and got swapped external to internal.
Probably there's something wrong in your beloved storage.

It is the way it is.
Forget these guys who says Asphalt 8 run flawlessly on I9500/I9505, it doesn't. Flawlessly is 60fps all the time. S4 can't deliver that.
It doesn't matter which ROM you are using, they do little to no help on GPU performance, unless when you are OCing the GPU.
Just make sure you don't have background apps running.
For Asphalt 8 on I9500 expect a frame rate on High Quality averaging on 30fps, with peaks on 40fps and dips on 15fps.
I9505 is a few frames worse.
If you really want have a gain on FPS, you should have root, be on Android 4.2 and change the resolution to let's say 720x1280.
got ard 30fps, can't say perfect but good enough to play. Anyway racing game don't require very high fps.
If you experience HEAVY LAG then something must be wrong.

I am playing real racing on i9500 from past few days. and IT SUCKS. fone get stuck time to time while loading game. I have to reboot it again and again
Sorry I'm a little bit out of the main subject.
Is there any way to show FPS when gaming on android devices ? I looked in playstore and there's none.
To get back to the subject, you should see what's wrong with your phone .. Asphalt runs well on S4 as it's running on IPAD 4 (but the bigger screen makes it better experience really) .. S2 also runs it well with medium graphics.
I thought the 3d titles were a bit laggy or jerky but played on iPhone 5 and we're the same smaller screen was rubbish.

FPS Meter (root required)
It is paid though... It used to be cheaper, I paid U$ 1.00 (maybe I bought it on specials days, don't know...) but now it is around U$ 4.00.
It shows fps on screen. It affects the performance a little bit when active, something around 5%-10%.

It effects much more than 5%-10%. It is taking down the FPS by about 10-15FPS!
I found no Lag yet on my phone. I've played and still playing Asphalt 8, Modern Combat 4, shadowgun:deadzone etc. and all run smooth.

I had the same problem with my S4, I noticed that it only happened when playing using the Bumper Cam view.
Since switching to the hood view its never frozen or stopped once.
been playing asphalt 8 for 2 weeks now, never had a problem.

Wow. All this time, I've been thinking that it is running at 1080. Are you sure its at 720? I mean have you tried to run the game at 720p and noticed any difference?

Works fine for me. Never had a problem
Asphalt 8, NFS Mostwanted, Fifa 2014, GTA Vicecity, all running smoothly and lagfree on my I9500 on Omega rom V14 stock kernel
i have no problem in my i9500 and i9505 i am using wanam rom in both
Somethings weird on your phone... To everyone, the Adreno 320 and PowerVR SGX544 are pretty much the same in performance. On that note, I'm playing Asphalt 8 at around 40-50 FPS. No frame drops at all. Using a Canadian SGS4 so its a S600. Running Broodplanks Pure AOSP. Its most likely the best ROM for gaming. Gets 29000 in Antutu without any over clock.

here asphalt 8 is just fine..
around 40-55 fps. No overclock.

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
My phone was lagging on heavy games such as Dead Effect, End of tomorrow and asphalt 8. My phone also lags on 2d games such as virtual city (heavy volume objects). I thought that s4 was a good phone but now I had a bad impression in gaming.
Anyway, I am using Phoenix rom v8.
I have no idea if the "rom" affects the game because of some scripts or is it just my phone. I really have no idea what was causing.
Is it because of ext2sd? Greenify?
I optimize the ram before I play and see if 50% of ram and below is available.
I am a noob? Yes.

Sounds like it may be the DVFS introduced by Samsung that a lot of people have problems with. There is a way of disabling this, check the link below.

Thank you so much!! To be honest, I didn't know it was the cause of bottleneck. I tested some games including the ones I mention and yeah, it was awfully working now as it is..

Have you tried custom kernel? or GameTuner from PlayStore,change resolution and will be good
Well you have 2 options:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-gltools-1-29-t2828630
this one is an per app graphics config. You can choose witch app to run on what resolution and you can set filters like MSAA and antistropic filtering and such.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nomone.resolution_changer&hl=nl
2nd one changes the resolution of your whole system to gain more framerate but things may crash like touchwiz and keyboard.
I my self use GLtools the most and i'm pretty happy with the functionality.
Offcourse you need ROOT for both of these apps.

Just use the Performance governor when you are gaming, for both GPU and CPU, and try to increase the freq of GPU if needed.

Snapdragon version is bad for gaming, no way around it, but since you are still on lollipop, you should install Xposed & wanam xposed module & disabe dvfs, it used to work for me, but ever since I updated to marshmallow, I am out of luck since xposed is not working now
