There is now a bug entry for this: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=7520 . Please vote for it by clicking on the star. Also I just posted a new 2D benchmark program to the Market called "Fps2D". It shows instant and average fps, and a log10 histogram of all the frame rates observ

Hi, I modified the Phil's LagTest to run in parallel a busy thread that just forces the cpu to run at full speed. With this test on my Nexus One and my G1 the fps is constantly at 60fps. A waste of cpu but just for testing. It's interesting to see, using the profiler, the scheduling of the drawing

Hi, did you check the cpu frequency on both phones while the test was running? You can from the shell on the phone run the following command that check the frequency every second: while true; do cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ scaling_cur_freq; sleep 1; done Maybe they have done some opt

Hi Phil, Actually, I saw this on a post on the replica island blog here : http://replicaisland.blogspot.com/ In one of the comment, the author explained that his aimed to be played at 50 Fps on a G1, but that he can achieve such a fps on a Droid or a Nexus one. I think the 3D graphic cards are abo

Same here. Just updated manually, played my previous 3d & 2d OGL games - 80-100 fps in native res, same as before. Then tried the 2D canvas game and it's much worse. Average fps isn't too bad at ~45 but it's jumping between 35 and 60 all the time. Used to be smooth 50-60 on 2.0.1, and now it's clos

I have the official 2.1 update on my Droid. It came OTA and installed normally. I observed that my 3 GL games run great on it but my 2D canvas one does not. It feels like it lurches a bit now and it was totally smooth on 2.0.1. Strange. I would think it would run locked at 30 but still smooth.

patbenatar, Verizon started the rollout of 2.1 to Droid devices earlier this week. If it has been halted, it's news to me. On Apr 2, 10:30 pm, patbenatar wrote: > If you updated to 2.1, you must have root and have installed some > custom ROM, correct? Motorola has not yet rolled out 2.1 updates

Emmanuel, my test uses only 2D (Canvas) graphics. Are these also limited to 30fps? What about the Droid? What exactly does fill- limited mean? I have not heard of this limitation before. On Apr 2, 9:16 pm, Emmanuel wrote: > I think the Nexus One can't go above 30 FPS in OGL because of the > s

If you updated to 2.1, you must have root and have installed some custom ROM, correct? Motorola has not yet rolled out 2.1 updates [and from what I've been hearing they've put it on some sort of indefinite hiatus] so any version of 2.1 you're running is not OFFICIALLY built for Droid... Maybe the R

No. Only the Motorola Droid with 2.1 seems to be affected, and only 2D graphics, not OpenGL. On Apr 2, 3:55 pm, Ralf Schneider wrote: > UUUhh! > > Does this mean the Nexus One would be faster if it would use 2.0.1? > > Is OpenGL affected, too? This would explain why it is nearly impossible to >
