[Q] P1010 performance improve - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
atlast i bought a P1010 but i regret so bad
I use it for web surfing, chat, facebook and watching videos
all works great except videos
I know it's weak in that spot but i read in forum that some guys increased quadrant scores by using oneclicklagfix and setcpu apps
I want to know how effective are those methods?
can I watch full HD (1080p) videos if I oclf my tab?
what about overclocking? is there any way?
please help me
thanks in advance

Hi, answer no!
But you can watch with no issues 720 with no issues, and honestly this is a better format for the size hehe if the only reason is less file size. Now if you wanted it cause you can hook up to your tv to play then you are out of luck.

thank you so much for the answer
actualy i can play 720p but high bitrate mkv files are blury and pixelate
what does overclocking do exactly?
there is no lag in running apps out of the box and it doesn't improve video playbacks
why people overclock p1010?
what does oclf do?

I have used mobo and mvideo players for mkv files and had no issues with lag before and after rooting and over clocking.
The stock player would not play them for me but then i had a faulty device as well and sammy are replacing it for me.
Overclocking makes the device snapier for most apps but effects battery life.. So depending on what you use it for and how often you can get to a charger will depend.. When get new one next week will tell you if battery performance was solely due to Overclocking >:~}

yes I use mobo for all videos format, it's the best imo, but when playing mkv highbitrates sound and video are unsync
vplayer can play them but the quality sucks
I wish there was a way I could overclock GPU

Chainfire3D 1.9 (eu.chainfire.cf3d)
CPU Master Free 1.5.1
and make sure device is rooted, these help me, and am sure there are others out there >:¬}

thanks again
they say Chainfire isn't related to video playback

I'm gonna try cpu master and set cpu tonight
which one do you think is better?

[Q] How can one improve .MKV video playback on galaxy mini

Hey guys, appreciate the work you guys have done here. Am running stock rom on my galaxy mini, still new to android after ages spent as a wm6.5 lurky hence taking my time before trying to go gingerbread. I have tried mx player, mobo player, qq player rockplayer yet I still can't get •Mkv clips to play well. Video is always choppy though sound is fine, in wm apps had the option to reduce quality unlike in android. Any ideas on how I could improve playback?
yes, the only solution for your problem is buying an upgrade phone.
The Adreno 200 GPU and the 600MHZ CPU is not up to the task of playing any file with higher resolution than 480p. Maybe some MPEG4 files, but H.264 not possible.
MX Player is one of the best players in terms of hw acceleration. If this can't handle well, you are out of luck.

Hmmm bummer, guess I'll start eyeing the galaxy S soon, this happens to be my first crack at android already am suffering from the smartphone upgrade fever! That voice in my head that keeps telling me to upgrade just won't let up! With that said the galaxy mini is still quite cool, for a starter.
Well then whats the max recommended benchmark video resolution I should try to play? I remember having issues with an .mkv 480p big bang episode. whats the highest resolution any of you have played with reasonable results?
You can install tweaked chainfire drivers along with overclocked kernel to see if its working
i think if you oc it will work much more smoother
What is the resolution of the videos ur trying to play?
Convert them 240x320 and try.
This works best for me..though I don't remember how well.mkv plays but I tried various formats in this res a long time back and they all seemed to play well.
Try on both mobo and Qq...
Hmm I'll give Mx a try.
---edit----
Damn this thread is months old!
Haha dont worry about it being a month old, we still read it. Converting videos sounds tideous

ya but that is the best way to get most of the hdvideos to work, afaik.
i use total video converter.
cannot expect a 720 or a 1080p to play on mini without down converting it
btw ya i've had a lil trouble with .mkv, i prefer avi.
.avi always delivers in my mini, its my preferred format, had a chance to fiddle with a pals galaxy s and galaxy s2 and damn I was so freaking blown out of the water! Right now am thinking upgrade, just as soon as I rob a bank to afford one! just rooted galaxy mini, was considering overclock options but am not sure that would do much improvements. Oh and what about CHAINFIRE3D? Do you guys think it can enable smoother mkv play on mx video player or does it only work for games?

I think Cf3d works only with games.

I'm not sure abt cf3d cuz it has lots of options..and if u use it properly(knowing what does wat),it mite have some effect.
head over to that thread.
I actually have chainfire installed, just freaked out by the warning it gave just before I install the openGL driver so am still growing a pair before activating it . Read the forum and pretty much still I can't tell heads or tails about what it really does. And also from the looks of things it seems to be complimented better by overclocking abilities on your phone. I have been using stock froyo for a while and now am feeling ready to graduate to the big boys league, just can't decide yet between going for a stock gingerbread rom or cyanogen rom. As time goes am sure more solutions will come out to tackle this problem coz .mkv is a pretty important format these days especially in phones coz of its small storage size requirements, wish android and samsung had taken more time to make it more compatible with their hardware and software respectively

Heavy games problem

Hello guys my problem today is heavy games like mass effects and asphalt 6
Problem is my phone runs those games slowly very slowly and I think it should be faster than this but why heavy games are slowly if we compare it with iPhone 4 (has same processor speed)iPhone runs them very fast so should I do something to run them vary fastwithout hangs thnx

Try closing some background apps. Performance also depends on what android version you run (but I don't think you use Froyo, gingerbread is way better )

GPU in Black is not first class. Actually it's rather old and even if CPU speed is the same than in Apple then GPU is much way weaker.
Can I use chainfire???!!!!
chainfire will make only things worse - it will emulate another GPU...
Sorry I mislead you - GPU in IPhone4 is comparable with that in Black - IPhone4S
just crashes Black's...
I don't have those games so I can't check how it run at my config. But Real Racing 2 runs fine on Black.
thats wierd cause, if my mind doesn't trick me, I remember when first using my OB for first time, a year ago or something, it had froyo and asphalt6HD and I spend hours playing it without problem before I even know about this forum...
now with the big wave of new roms, you can play almost anything you want

that is absolutely not true!!!!....the GPU of black is still on par with most mid range droids rolling over adreno 200/205.
and of the Iphone, i feel u r comparing OB with iPhone 4 and not 4S, since they are on par. iPhone 4's GPU is as much powerful as OB's. the optimization is of the light (read "flash" free )OS
my OB plays most games seriously well... i feel it's a seriously well balanced device for the price range.
@hemo ali: try and use a task manager before your game start to clear off and release RAM. and avoid intensive apps like browsing, streaming etc while playing.
or better yet, get zeus/marvel
thnx for advice I hope to use zeus or marvel but my problem is in rtl support
is Zeus or Marvel supports rtl???
also what about graphics can I use chainfire without getting worse graphics??
okay another big problem after installing chainfire drivers And i noticed it goes well
but now another big problem(priority is very high)phone full hangs and stopped 4time/1day And I should release battery then put it again why is it related with chinfire???!!
I use cm7.2 rc3 with heux 4.0 kernerl, with chain fire 3d with smartass2 governer.
I play asphalt6, st iv and ShadowGun.
I dont find any perofrmance issues.
The games some time lag, and I see in CPU spy the CPU is stuck at 300 Mhz, killing the game and relaunching it fixes it. I see in CPU spy that CPU is scalled at 1 Ghz
I use Zeus 6.28n and i play both games + front line commando.. and i have no lag and works fine. i didn't change any frequency.. i use RARELY the memory booster when i switch from game to game..

Nook Color Latest Mirage cm7 - Laggy flash player

Hello all
I have a pretty big problem with my nook.
Im running latest Mirage cm7 Kang build, web browsing at 600-1000 mhz ondemand, and youtube videos (desktop website version) are very very very laggy. Sound is fine, but they show at 1-2 fps.
I've tried flash player 11, and flash player 10.3, 10.3 is a bit better but still very laggy. I even tried changing browser, but the problem persist in dolphin hd and even in dolphin mini. Is it supposed to be like this or is a flash player version specific for nook out there? Also could someone please link me a working HQ youtube apk?
im pretty disappointed by these performance, because my lg optimus one, which is arm v6, plays youtube videos be it on website or app very smootly, and it has a much slower cpu. Please someone help me

sounds like you have a daft nook color I have never overclocked mine and it plays youtube via dolphin browser and the app perfectly.
How can i have a daft nook color? if it turn on and work well for everything, it's something on the software side... by the way antutu is 27xx, seems pretty legit and normal for this device.. I dont think it's some hardware fault

I hope it's only a rom problem do you mind running an antutu benchmark and posting here your scores? Maybe i can see if i score low in video or cpu in respect to yours and find out if it's an hardware problem.. returning it it's not an option for me, i live in italy and i bought it refurbished from ebay, it would take forever and i dont know if im even in warranty..

I'm running the 7/30 CM7.2 MiRaGe build. My NC is overclocked to 1.2GHz using the Interactive governor. YouTube videos play well at non-HQ setting. My Quadrant score on 1st run is 2026. I haven't made any real attempts to optimize performance, as I'm more concerned about battery life.
You could try creating a bootable uSD card using a different firmware version, or a clean version of what you've got installed to see if it's something specific to your configuration. The NC is certainly up to playing YouTube videos with reasonable performance.
Ok, i did some more testing... I ran a quadrant and scored 2152 with conservative... However I noticed that the 3d fps are somewhat low in respect to some other devices with the same or lower specs. I think all nook are like this, everything else is ok.
Then i 've done some more testing with videos and YouTube. Turns out that the choppy performance was because some videos default at 480p. At 360p videos are watchable, even if they lag a little bit (in particular if I don't disable the adds banners). But I found and old YouTube apk in which hq work, and here playback is silk smooth and load times are fast.
So I'm happy to say that my nook seems perfectly fine , thanks to all for the time and for the resolution tip.. I completely forgot about that lol
Is the "old YouTube apk" available to the public???

[Q] Video Playback and Camera Problem after updating to 4.0.3 from Gingerbread.

Hi
I updated to to 4.0.3 from Gingerbread. I was initially very happy as it felt like a brand new phone.
But now I am facing 2 problems:
1. Video files are really really choppy and it goes out of sync and eventually hangs the phone.... I am using BS Video Player app for videos. In Gingerbread I was able to play even HD (720p) movies quite easily but now much smaller videos are not playing properly. I have tried other (including the default one) players also
Have you guys faced similar problem? Is there solution you could suggest?
2. Camera won’t start sometime. Sometimes it starts and then it works fine.
Is there any solution for this?
I can kind of answer your first question, for some reason some video codec supports are dropped when going to ICS+ (I had a 720p recording of a science experiment that played wonderfully on GB, but couldn't even play on ICS and above). So your solution is third-party video players (I personally like DicePlayer, but all work well).
As for the camera, that's probably a bug in the rom you're using.

I am using a 3rd party player (BS Player) only, Earlier it played everything fine. Now it's really choppy and tries SW mode after struggling in hardware mode for sometime, then it hangs.... And with default it's always saying that the video can't be played after few minutes.

Some ROMs/kernels use bigger part of the RAM for the apps, on costs of the video recording. As you didn't provide info about which rom and kernel do you use, it would be best to check the source threads of their developers and read what other people write about it

That should be a Kernel issue... Some Kernels use some of the available for use with apps removing some useability from the camera. You should check if your free Ram is bigger than 370 Mb. Usually most Kernels with bigger free memory has that problem...
Thanks guys for replying

How can bigger free memory create problem? or did you mean the other way around?
Is there any lightweight and fully functional that you guys can suggest for my good old GalaxyS i9000?

Usually developers add some more free memory for general use, removing some from other parts of the Kernel used for example by the camera.
But if you only installed that Rom, usually the Stock Kernels don't have that problem. But depends on what Kernel that Rom uses... I don't know.

I have a Galaxy S+ (GT-i9001) and I use the K^Kernel that has great performance and awesome battery life. But for i9000 I don't know, sorry...
For i9001 there are 3 versions of this Kernel: 360 Mb; 370 Mb & 390 Mb of free memory.
In the 390 Mb version, 720p Video doesn't work also...

Elite Performance

I have spent crazy amount of time tuning my Galaxy S5 G900F running the latest CM13 release with the stable Boeffla kernel and I finally think I totally mastered the performance level at perfect stability without any overheating issues or crashes.
I just got a splendid 64676 score from the latest antutu benchmark! That is way higher than any old 32bit Snapdragon 801 device has ever gotten and the RAM and I/O performance is just ridiculous that beats much newer and more expensive phones.
This is enabling me to play VP9 videos at 1080p completely smooth without any drop in quality or FPS. The best part is that the phone newer overheats or lags. I can run some serious multitasking and download at least 8 files simultaneously from 8 multi-threads at blistering speed including complex merging, decoding and encoding procedures just fine and using the phone for common tasks in the meantime.
For those who want to be able to shoot 60 FPS 720p videos get the Snap Camera HDR app and with correct settings that will be quite possible. Just let me know if you need instructions how to set it up properly.
I included a screen shot of the benchmark score.
Can you post your boeffla setup?
Sure thing just need a moment to figure out the best way to show my setup.

Damn, good job!
Here is a link to my Setup Demonstration YouTube video where I show the tweaks I've done to improve the performance of my phone:
I uninstalled the AdClear app because it just was too recourse demanding and network speed trap. Instead I installed the latest version of AdAway and configured it so ads in all the apps including MX Player successfully and free of VPN and system load. I attached screenshot of the configuration.
So why did you remove the video?
How did you enabled the [email protected]? @Ragnar Eldur
Hah oh problem with my account, remind me what I was saying, long time ago.
