Hey all you Eris heads, i was wondering if anyone has tips on making Angry Birds run faster on our lil Eris'es. I love my phone and Angry Birds but the lag is bad. Im running setCPU at 710 max, 245 min priority 100. Anything i can do to increase the speed?? I really wanna kill pigs faster

All you need is 2 9v batteries, three of those metal cored garbage bag twisties, and 2 rolls of ducktape.
But if you do figure out a way, I would give props.
The lag is not eris specific, it is being reported on a lot of devices. I'm sure the revs will get it worked out.
BTW this is not a dev related post, should be moved to the apps thread.

If you're rooted check out adfree in the market, makes a huge difference, actually playable now.

Downgrade to v1.3.5. There are some missing graphics here and there but its much faster on the Eris than the current 1.4.2.

That's only to a degree. The lag is about the same once you get half way thru the second part of level one. At least that has been my experience.

Turning off the radio helps (via airplane mode) helps, but the graphics are still hard to handle.
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App
I don't see why graphics would be the issue here. I play much more graphic intensive games that work way better then my experience with angry birds. The ads, now that I think about it, could be the culprit. Going to try the suggestion made earlier to block the ads and see if the performance is increased.

I downloaded Abduction! and was really surprised to see it lag and "jitter" in anything but graphics settings to the lowest. Do you experience this too? It's a south east asia legend if that might contribute to differences.
Yes me too. It's a shame that a 2d platformer runs choppy on a 600 mhz processor, programmers should optimize it a little

If the phone is the same, we just have different concepts of smoothness

It runs smooth in my phone.
It depends on level... if you set details at maximum, when there is sun or rain on background it slows down. Check out Hyper Jump: now THIS means smooth, and it has way better graphics
Sent from my HTC Legend using Tapatalk
Tried hyper jump and its really smooth and a lot nicer graphics. Guess it boils down to our definitions of smooth then

Have you rooted yours?
No, I haven't rooted it. However, maybe I should add that I've tested it with the demo version and that I have only played like the first half of the first level.
I'll try advancing further in the game and report whether it makes a difference.

Alright, I've played the first three levels now and I had sun and rain and all I can say is....no lags.

I have a MT3G rooted on Cyanogen 5.0.8. and I get lag too. I tried the lowest settings but it doesn't change anything. This app i just weird on some phones I guess. I don't think my phone is that slow that it can't run a 1mb app properly.
Are you all using the full version? (as I said...there's no lag for me playing the demo....)
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Tried both the full and demo but still lags. Lol, I'm just gonna convince myself its not that fun anyways..
You could try hyper jump or the free game papi jump(hasn't such nice graphics but is the same type of game.)
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
I also tried the full version and no lag here (without root).
Btw try doodle jump. Its the same kind of game .
No lag here as well .. at full settings
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
No lag here either, full settings, stock Bell Legend, demo. even the level with the rain is smooth.
Current have an Inc, Hoping to switch soon. Just wondering, how is performance in 3d applications and gaming? Specifically N64oid. Thanks!
-CM7 ADR6300
I don't have tons of info for you, but I can tell you this... N64oid wouldn't work at all on my fascinate, I could hear sound but no video at all.... Goldeneye 007 (the only game I really care about lol) plays on my tb, but it is a lil choppy, but the app is also very young so I think that has something to do with it....
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
True. It was also pulled from the market until the dev could improve it.
Would you mind trying Orcarina of Time? It runs about 70% speed on the Inc.
-CM7 ADR6300
I can tell you this, havenf played alot of games but this phone makes the dinc feel almost slow. And i LOVE the dinc. But the extra ram and upgraded processor really make for a flawless experience. If u are thinkibg about getting it. Do it

Super Mario 64 Runs Smooth Too. The Graphics are good enough. Way better than old gen Snapdragons SoC for shure. better than Droid X and on par or Near Galaxy S from what people say (Seems bout right to me too). Also to guy with Fascinate, Games worked good for me on my old fascinate. Maybe it depends on game.
I'm coming from the inc, and the performance is much better. Easiest way to tell is by using a live wallpaper. They are much smoother now with the better gpu.

I too came from the inc. It's definitely better in terms of performance especially graphics. The extra screen size makes everything more enjoyable too.

So how do you get NDS on the Motorola Atrix?
And how would I get Pokemon Black/White ENGLISH roms to play on it?
Waste of $10 for a "beta" project. Definitely not paying that much money for an unfinished product.
it is sloooowww
thats why i have a 3DS and a acekard 2i so i can play free ds games. XD later on maybe i can play free 3ds games but for now ill buy my 3ds games. XDD
I have my ways of acquiring this app and thank god I didnt buy it. It is VERY SLOW. Im guessing it hasnt been optimized yet for dual core. I think mine was running on 5fps. I tried playing Advance Wars: Days of Ruin.....very very slow. I didnt bother trying other games since it was a major turn off.
Ill support once the bugs are sorted out.
Yeah its still slow with the current update 1.1.2. I just cant wait till i can play super scribblenauts at a decent speed then I will be fine. Currently it is playable but it slow but playable if you just want to spawn stuff.
Anyone know why videos on Netflix are all pixelated on the x2? Is there a fix?
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
My guess is you have a connection problem of some sort. Are you using it on wireless or 3g? Mine is usually clear. Only time it gets pixelated is when my internet connection is acting up (having trouble with it at home right now). When the connection is working as it should, Netflix works great. If my connection starts going bonkers, the picture will pixelate for a few seconds and then clear up again as the signal gets better. Until my internet problems at home, I never had any problems with it. This reminds me. Have to call my ISP, again.
Tried on my wifi McDonald's wifi 3g. All Pixelated
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
Netflix looks good on mine. On 3G Nd wifi.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Just tried on my home wifi. Looks just fine, although at the beginning it was pixelated. IIRC Netflix tried to use an algorithm to change its quality to best suit your connection speeds. As has been said previously, WIFI is recommended over 3G, but you might also want to look into some scripts (speedy comes to mind, but I haven't kept up with that compared to what comes with the latest roms tbh).

Its most likely a network difference. The Thunderbolt has 4G, and the X2 has 3G. The reason you just downgraded is because the X2 is way faster than the Thunderbolt. The Tegra 2 processor is no joke.
Actually its a major upgrade. Even rooted with cm7 the thunderbolt is blowing the x2 out of the water

Mmhmm.... Where are you getting your information? What are you basing this on? Which device was running CM7?
Basing it off being able to fly through app after app, webpages being crystal clear, music not skipping or forcing closed. The x2 was running cm7. The locked bootloader sucked balls. I like changing kernels,radios, etc. Thunderbolt does everything I ask it to without hesitating
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
While I do agree that a locked bootloader is terrible (my previous device was unlocked), I have to say that your other evidence merely comes from OS tweaks, not speed. The Xperia play browser is smoother in scrolling than the X2s, but that doesn't mean that it is faster. A good way to see performance differences is to try heavy emulators like N64oid and FPSe with 0 frameskips and graphics smoothing on and you will see a significant difference in performance, especially with FPSe, which has dual core optimization.
When I put my cm7 x2 next to my RF stock TB yea the x2 wins in quadrant scores, but that means nothing when a game like fruit ninja lags on my phone but not hers. Or videos from SD card are pixelated but not on the tb

I've owned a bunch of HTC phones but have been having issues with my new HTC Rezound. Whenever I exit certain applications the stock launcher reloads and displays the HTC Splash Screen. Seems to happen most often with Draw Something (but does happen with other apps as well). Anyone else have a similar issue or know of a fix?

I am actually surprised to say this but I am going to say it (knocks on wood) anyway. I know exactly the issue you are speaking of with sense phones in general. have had it happen tons of times on phones from the Droid Eris, to Incredible 1 & 2, TBolt, and they have all done this. I am into week 2 of my rezound and haven't seen it once. {walks away and launcher redraws}.
Are you running any tweaks or mods like the leedroid tweaks?

On my Incredible, I used V6 Supercharger to prevent this (and it worked amazingly well!).
I have V6 on my Rezound, and in the 30+ days I've had it, I've had exactly one re-draw of the launcher, and I really think that was my fault. Check it out!
V6 Supercharger
Thanks for the input. Mine is totally bone stock...I just received it yesterday. On my Incredible it would happen once in a great while. On the Rezound it happens almost consistently. And I wouldn't mind if it didn't take the launcher so long to recover.

When sense does that it either has run out of Memory or forced closed
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound
I figured as much. But that means I'm constantly out of memory which is odd for a bone stock phone. I even turned off back ground processes that might have been sucking up memory. It's bad enough that it makes me want to return the phone.

It could be a memory leak in an app. If you notice it happening with a particular app try uninstalling it and see how it runs.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I've turned off fast boot and cpu timelines which has seemed to help thus far. Worse case I guess I could just restore the phone and reinstall one app at a time. Main culprit definitely seems to be Draw Something though.

Have you checked to see how much memory draw something uses? I know that words with friends is a memory hog.
Sent from my Kindle Fire using Tapatalk
Good call. Draw Something uses 72MB which is nearly twice as much as other average apps. In fact I would argue that it's almost unacceptable. I still can't believe the launcher wouldn't have a higher memory priority over other user apps though.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
I noticed this happens when I use Scramble With Friends. It used about 130 MB of memory. Sometimes more so I uninstalled it. Sense uses about the same amount of memory. I think because the phone gets low on memory it shuts down Sense because it is using lots of memory. Seems ridiculous that this happens, but it does.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Sense 3.5 takes up a ton of memory so when its not used and other programs require more ram sense is unloaded. Once you go back to the home screen it has to be reloaded.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
Draw Something, Facebook, Any of those games and whatnot constantly streaming data, seem to decide to use all your ram for no reason. I like ICS for the reason that now you can close stuff when your done with it
So when ICS rolls out with Sense 3.6 they'll hopefully have this fixed. I bought this phone for Sense and I'm just amazed how fickle it seems this far.

That's half the answer the problem is the ram is supposed to dump the apps from the ram in order of least important but for some reason the sense launcher drops to a less important level when not in use (to give back more ram I guess). Like many people have said V6 will fix this problem and is super easy to use so I would give that a try is a great script.
