Xperia S Lag issue

Post by luiscesjr » Fri Dec 27, 2013 8:39 am

First of all Hi everyone, and second of all Congrats exophase, you
achieved another miracle making this run so smooth on smartphones.

Now to the matter at hand. The emulator plays all the roms I tested at
fullspeed, with no lag on my Xperia S, but after like 30 mins of gameplay
it starts lagging until it freezes. I know my phone is really shitty, the battery
is so good right now it depletes even on charge, but this shouldn't be normal right?

Thanks in advance.

i dont recommend playing drastic when device is on charge coz it may lower bqttery lifespan. as for slowdowns, can you tell me your general settings? maybe we can check something with it.

Well, it's default really, form latest version.
Any specific setting?

Frameskip - Auto and set to 4
Don't use FF
Filter - Linear
No multithreaded render
Sound and microphone enabled (I read somehwere that microphone
had some issues, might turn that off later, I really don't need it)
Latency - High

Other that these, I think they are irrelevant. Does it matter
if I use zip or unziped roms? I don't remember it having a great change
of efficiency on gpSP for ex.

May sound silly but try playing it without the filter and see if you get the same result.
Devices running Android:

- Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (CM12.1, overclocked, undervolted)
- Asus Nexus 7 2013 (Stock Marshmallow...to play Pokemon GO on...)
- Tenfifteen QW09 SmartWatch (Kitkat)
- Fujitsu Lifebook T4410 Touchscreen Laptop (Remix OS 3.0)

Ohhh that was simple =) It helps a lot, takes longer to lag, the thing is,
I think the problem is my phone itself, it happens on most game apps.

Since last sony's official update, it became better, it was worse before,
thanks for the help!
