Game performance - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello my friends.
I'm suffering from games on my phone. Even the simplest game , "perfect kick" it lags like hell.
I'm pretty sure that our phone can handle this game!
Xperia arc, on GB , xgamer
I tried rom atomic, it also lags.
The wierd thing, that it doesn't lag on samasung galaxy S 1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any advice?

I dont use GB but all i can say is try increasing ram before playing it?
There is a app on play store called xbooster, u cud try that, it will give a lot of ram (cause a lot of FC's)
Turn on gaming mode before playing and then press 'Quick Boost'
Hopefully it will wok

Try Zelly Cream Rom (ICS) with boost my xperia app. I tried lot of hd games and they worked fine without lag.

There is no way for ICS to be better than GB....... ICS is just too heavy.

You're wrong. ICS has more features than GB. GB wins in terms of performance only.

Believe me, I tried ultimate HD rom.. It is fairly good, but it's nothing compared to GB.... I'm a heavy user.
Although ICS has many awesome features, but when it comes to performance, GB is a killer...

There is no real way to check
Each rom, phone is better compatible with different drivers
Latest is not always the best
I suggest u google drivers for GB
hopefully there is one
On my phone i have tried JB drivers but they werent as good as xperia ray ICS drivers
U have to jst check
But be sure to make a backup so if it isnt as gd u can always revert

try 1100 with smartassv2 and deadline in cpu setting it may work

Temple Run on Galaxy Y?

Hey guys. My girlfriend just bought a galaxy y and I randomly want to ask whether temple run works on it? I know it wont show up in the market but does it work if we manually apk install it?
not compatible
No, not posibble, only on ics. Maybe try an ics custom rom, but its not competable with gingerbread or lower.
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
It's not officially available for devices with ARMv6 processors, only ARMv7. However, there is an APK you can download somewhere around here but it has a few bugs in it...
Sent from my GT-S5360 using XDA
Yeah I found the apk. Doesn't seem to work correctly? Are there any ICS roms available for this phone? If yes, which ones?

You should try panda run, that exactly the same, but compatable with sgy, sgg, sga etc.

yup the one on the themes and apps sections does installs and even runs well
but has a lot of bugs like the graphics glitches wile collectiong coins and even the man dies suddenling wile running,so have to wait for dev to fix it till now you can enjoy it as it is
temple run
that one is useless.....graphics doesnt work when coin appears

well,i've found trick to finish that problem
actually the trick is You Must Finish The Tutorial Session..
after the tutorial session,the game will run (a little) smoothly,even when coin appears..
i'll research that,and i'll post the link as soon as possible..
*updated*
here's the link
**note: to finish the trick,you must watch a video. some of you'll think the video just about play,but actually the fix.
remember,you must have 'Sharp Eye' ,and fast thinking + skill
but the man dies automatically after some time.
is there any fix for this

You can run temple run..but the apk for armv6 has an auto die bug..
In order to run it,install chainfire3d from market..install it and then the phone will reboot
And then install plug.ins...choose your plug.in,then reduce texture...enjoy

I never used Chainfire3D to play it. Apart from the game-killing 'death bug' it works fine

Yes, they should make Temple Run Compatible with our Device, it fun to play that game

I don't want to lose my apps/games data for nothing...
I have a lot of games and apps installed on my device...
So backing up and restoring take time...
But it seems no one of ordinary members tested JB ROMs...
And there is no dualboot kernal for switching between GB and JB...
I think I will stay on GB ROMs for some time...
Just saying, backing up takes 3 minutes. They should be smooth, but the gaming performance won't be as good as GB, I presume.
Works really smooth and fast only thing stopping me using it as a daily rom is the audio routing issue

Better for gaming of course! whit my fix for touchpads and gamepad for CM9 and 10.

JB is better than ICS in many aspects.
The only thing i hate is the camera and audio bug....

Yes i think it just works normal, i never had any problems restoring data from ics to jb. altough going to jb from gb is a bigger step so im not fully sure.
Thanks for the response. I think I'll wait to see if there is ever some sort of touchpad fix to have better compatibility and then I'll move from ICS. Yea, I guess it's because FXP is swamped with those other devices but lets see. I have a feeling though that when Archos release there gaming tablet with that 1000+ game compatibility that someone just might port it over to us. Heres hoping

Do ICS ROMs fair any better? Can you play all games on them? Thinking of installing a custom ROM but won't be looking at an ICS one if it can't play all games with touchpads yet.

Read what i said. You cant have anything. I want an watch with waterfall too. The prob is some of the games are based on Sony framework, that means that they work or they just use some drivers.

Try using some gaming tweaks and RAM tweaks such as Supercharger6, game booster, RAM manager, and so on. Maybe some bloatware stock system apps can be freezed or uninstalled in order to free RAM usage, because usually some stock system apps run in background. Hope this helps..

I'm facing the same problem too with my InDroid V6 REMICS ROM too! Its playable but only when things get nasty like when you hit against a wall with your car during the start... Although Dead Trigger seems to work fine... btw, can you give me the link for your CM10 a2 ROM thingy?
Working Fine now...
I've installed CM10 Alpha 3 and GTA lll works fine but with a few lags... No freezes like my old ROM... I also installed Supercharger V6, TweakZ, Bravia Engine and Geeky Engine MOD on my device and it seems to have no improvement whatsoever.... At least GTA3 work :good:
Thanks anyway!
But it also seems lag, so I will try vice city tomorrow

The only game I'm aware of that doesn't work with ICS is Shadowgun, all other games should generally work on ICS, more so if you're using a custom ROM, I'm using Xperia Ultimate HD2, and it works pretty well, plenty of Ram available, just make sure you don't fill your phone with apps that use up your phones storage and runs in the background, try finding alternative apps that are smaller and don't run on the background constantly. If you have a CPU clocking app, make sure it's set to performance and you should be able to run anything.

Your media apps or modified framework doesn't matter. The fact that you're running ICS already says everything. ICS is a bad choice if you want to play a high end game like Dead Trigger. Please switch to another ROM if you still want to play this game.
