Games running very badly

:crying:
I am having problems with games running very slowly, it seems the more simple the graphics are the worse it is
Eg "Clear Vision" runs really badly as do a lot of the games from the latest Humble Bundle but gfx intensive games like Shadowgun seem to run fine!!
Anyone got any ideas?

Define "running badly". Display corruption? Tearing? Banding? Lag? Fuzzy?
The only thing I've had is fuzziness. Some apps don't scale well to our extremely high resolution.

Many Android games are yet to properly handle the N10's resolution, or badly optimized anyways, the HW can handle everything, the problem lies at the developers,.

This video claims otherwise

Beach Buggy Blitz and Riptide - both set to max graphics - run very well here. Don't have the Tegra3 special effects but look otherwise even better to me than on the Nex7.

Dont get me wrong im not trolling, a lot of games run really well but I have come across a few that dont and it seems to be the more basic graphics games that dont.

the force gpu acceleration option in the developer settings seems to make them run a little better

Just tried it, must be a bug because the videos are normal speed, as is the game, but the menus animate in slow mo.

Yeah thats what I get, im guessing we just need to wait for app devs to catch up.

the the force gpu acceleration option has vastly improved some games so this might be a work around if anyone else has any issues :laugh:

I would worry about running games at 2560x1600 on a PC, the fact that we're doing it on a tablet is crazy.

New YouTube app full screen button missing when docked on TFs!

Hi,
So Google done gone and broke YouTube in the latest version. The full screen button is now gone when you dock your transformer (any version).
Perhaps someone has a link to the old version they can post....I stupidly had YouTube set to auto update.....
Plus I hate the new interface. It's like it was created for the mentally deficient and blind senior citizens....

YouTube Lags
Hi guys,
i have another problem with the new YouTube app but i didn't want to make a new thread.
Everytime i watch videos in higher quality and in the video are fast movements, it jumps forward for 1 or 2 seconds. I have the impression, that my transformer handles the video to slow, because if i watch films where is no real action, everything is fine.
I hope you understand me and sorry for my bad school english.
Edit: their is a problem with the framerate but i don't know what to do.

Lol yes. Unfortunately that is the case.

Same issue here, no full screen button when docked.
Simply resolved: Go to settings, apps, find the youtube app and uninstall updates. Older version looks MUCH nicer with that Wall!!
New version does show slight improvement in video playback speed though, although could be placebo...

Note 4: heavy stuttering while playing 3D games

Hope you can help me since it seems I can't find a solution to this: I have a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F), when I play a 3D game it's smooth for 10-15 minutes then it starts stuttering heavily and the games become unplayable. Using trepn profiler I noticed that the cpu and gpu frequency are really low when using a 3d game (for examole the gpu is stuck at 200 mhz and doesn't want to go up). It seems to happen when the phone heats up a bit but it's not too hot so why the hell does it happen? On my note 3 all games go perfectly :/ (i have android lollipop 5.1.1)

There are TWO ways to solve this issue....follow either one of the methods
METHOD ONE:
{{{{{disable DVFS...use custom kernel and downlock the cpu to 1.9ghz because throttling starts when cpu hits certain temperature...Downclocking the cpu will help you to maintain consistently low cpu temperature which will not trigger cpu n gpu throttling....}}}}}
METHOD TWO:
root ur device
download NOMOne resloution changer from play store
set your resolution in 1920x1080 and set Dpi to 480ppi
select apply...and play any game...it wont lag
after finished playing that game...select restore default settings in NOMone app
Bingo.......adreno 420 runs every game smoothly in 1080p
So Far these are the only 2 methods that i found to be working in Note 4 snapdragon variant

Or use this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-gltools-1-29-t2828630
You can configure GPU settings per app like forcing 16 bit or lower resolutions or even emulate tegra chipset to play those games too.
btw u must have ROOT for this.
(for the GearVR users here this does not break the services like xposed framework)

Face the reality. To make Note4 playable in 3d games either chipset you choose, you'll have to root and follow any advice from the posts in this thread.
I couldn't face it though and decided to go for the Mate 8 when it's released. Sam**** don't deserve our money after making fools out of us sam fans.
This ain't apple and iphone, luckily we are not as stupid as them.

I know, it's sickening how Sam**** has a bunch of lobby people as alot of other companies too, who hangs around on XDA especially and pukes out all bunch of lies to sell as many items as possible.
My experiance and conclusion is as I recommend everybody to do, buy the phone, test it out for yourself. Return it if it's ****, or eliminate it's existence and move along with your life.
I felt fooled by Sam**** tbh. Hate when my intelligence is being mocked. So just hit them back where it hurts as it supposed to

All new Features:

~Little Change in the interface of camera app.
~The update brings back the tap the Fingerprint to pop out Navigation bar and status bar feature while in full screen mode.
~New restart option.
~The Android update installation now shows a progress bar and the “optimizing apps” screen is now gone.

Yes, dynamic app-shortcuts are beautiful. Take a look at this screenshot from android 7.1.1 with pixel launcher and you can see. Best update ever. Thanks motorola. Feels good!

Would someone be so kind and run one of the GPSTest or GPS Test apps to see if they added Galileo support?
Thanks!

I have found one more new feature. Now there is a reboot button on the power-button menu. That's pretty kewl. Don't have found bugs until now. Works very good. If I found a bug I will tell you.

Not only brightness, but gamma as well. But that's pixel exclusive. Google had the code hidden on 7.0, which few apps from play store been able to expose as well. Those apps used to work on my previous Nexus phones, but never worked on MZP. Now we have 7.1 and unfortunately Google has erased the code completely... Now we can't reveal it through any 3rd party apps anymore...but few OEMs have their own solution like One Plus, Moto Z2 Play

Is the android 7.1.1 really so much bigger? On android 7.0 I had 1.5GB free on system-partition. 800MB bigger? Why? Or is the update.zip in there and must be removed? Would like to understand that. Thanks!

Or I'm wrong and I remember wrong values from before? :silly: Or is it for the update.zip? But would it be so, then android would remove it after update, or? Can you check how it is on your phone, please Hope that I'm not switch off the usb plug to early

For All The People Who Faces Lag in Games or Generally using the device!

Today I found something interesting happened to my phone it was running buttery smooth like it should be (821), and most of all the game i play everyday wasnt lagging at all, PUBG
Solution: DO NOT USE SMART CLEANING app or any other kind of it, your phone will start running smooth in next 3 4 days or maybe less.
Try this and share me your experiences.
Comment to let me know you're trying this.

Thanks. I'll give it a try and see if it makes a difference, because the amount of lag I experience while playing Cytus II is unbearably bad and makes the game nearly unplayable.

So dont use anything at all and itll work smooth? ok ill try that

Hi
Are you referring to the Smart Doctor build in app?
Did you disable or uninstall it?

It's been 3 days and I've reached a verdict. Doing as the OP said actually made games run better. By that, I mean I disabled Smart Cleaning via LG Package Disabler and deleted Google Files Go.
I'm not kidding about this helping. Cytus II is playable now at full 1440p 60fps, with very few lagspikes. Other games I've played, like Alto's Odyssey, run somewhat better as well.
Go try it out yourself, it may help a lot!

After a factory reset a couple days ago the antutu graphics benchmark got noticeably choppier, especially the "marooned" scene which was previously completely fluid. That was a disappointment since that was one of the reasons for going through that process! I've now removed Google files go and I will see if that makes a difference, I hope it does. If so, thank you in advance.
Btw I think you meant "1440p" (QHD) not "2160p", that's 4k! ?

This is serious guys, I deleted Smart Cleaning by ADB and my gaming experience increase magically, Shadowgun Legends can run quite good with Ultra high 60fps setting, it couldn't do that before. Unbelievable
PS: Tested only with latest Android 7.0

I have zero lag and i use smart doctor every other day.

Well, two weeks from when i see this thread and i stop using SmartDoctor / SmartCleaning app, just to say, this guy is right, using SmartDoctor / SmartCleaning app will (somehow, and i dont know how and why) make you phone laggy and in my tests if i open it like between 2 or 3 days and make a clean all UI and the app frezzes and i need to wait almost 1 minute to phone get out of the app and all be OK again.
So, my test really gives reason to this guy and i will delete the app from the phone, and i recomend all people with rooted G6 to do the same and use CCleaner instead to clean cache from apps and so on...
to the guy who discover the guilty of the lag: i cant pay you a beer, but you will be my hero forever.

Not working for me unfortunately... Still quite a bit of lag playing heavier games like csr2, Rr3 (practically unplayable), hungry shark world ?

I've had the phone since September last year and I don't think I've used it for more than 10 times. It lags anyway. Lowering the resolution does wonders, but it has some bugs that I don't like so I've switched back to lag.

If you are rooted, I highly recommend installing the new Adreno 530 driver, there is a decent improvement in games and definitely in Antutu...

does this stil work as of now?

This reads like bull****. What is "smart cleaning"? Is it supposed to be an app? The instructions are super unclear.
Smart Doctor cannot be disabled either. You can just disable it running in the background.
