i'm playing samurai II: vengeance thd now on my sgs2.. it's damn smooth and i dont feel any difference with atrix / optimus2x~

with SGS2's superb graphic and excellent multitouch display, tell me.. who needs tegra2?  thumbup.gif

to anyone interested to know how to play tegra2 game..

* pre requisite:
- root + superuser access

steps:

0) download the 3 plugins from google (search "chainfire") > put all these 3 files at root of internal memory
1) buy and download chainfire3d pro (have to use market enabler to see it in android market)
2) choose cf3d driver to install the drivers
3) install plugin (the 3 plugins that we put in internal sd card just now)
4) go to default openGL settings > Use plugins > Nvidia
5) go to Per-app OpenGL settings > Tegra Zone > Use plugin > Nvidia
6) fix market settings
7) go to market, and download your desire tegra2 games!
8) enjoy!

* this is still under development, but at least the future looks promising for non tegra device!

in this link, the reviewer states that he only gets 6 hours battery life on normal usage. This is bad.... real BAD

shocking.gif not sure what they did. When I first got my phone with half battery in it, 5hours it takes to drain till 0%. With 100% I roughly get 20-25 hours, with gf like to raid my phone and play fruit ninja. sweat.gif

problem fixed smile.gif had to do manual setup and change a few things around, not sure why mine is so hard to add but managed to find a solution after googling alot, seems it is a dominant problem in the samsung galaxy s series!

also am i correct that to flash KE7 using odin, i DO NOT have to root my phone? mine is still unrooted and on KE1.


Added on May 26, 2011, 6:36 pmoh and should i be using ODIN or KIES to upgrade firmware?

i recall reading somewhere back in the thread that KIES is hard to use but cant remember if thats right!

Use KIES if you wan to get frustrated. laugh.gif

thanks h11g, jonrwg, and weeluvmal smile.gif and yes i do appreciate all the sarcasm tongue.gif

so im going to use odin to upgrade to KE7 using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

just want to confirm, i only need to download the Generic XEU right?

no need to download the stock kernel unless i root the phone later on, is that correct?
*
Yes and yes. smile.gif

QUOTE(noleave @ May 26 2011, 11:16 PM)
dummy here..  Do we require root to flash the firmware via odin? (it wrote no need there..just to confirm)
after flashing the XWKE7 firmware without root, can we use ChainFire's insecure KDD kernel to root the phone? (coz in his thread, he stated that his method is only for KDD, but our version is now KE7)
thx for answering.. btw i'm not sgs2 user yet smile.gif just out of curiosity reading  those expert's thread before getting the phone
*
You don require root to flash FW. Use ChainFire insecure KDD kernel to gain root and then flash back KE7 kernel. (note: Flash only KE7 kernel not the whole Firmware.)

More accurate when swyping or typing 1 by 1.
