I have on my Folio found a way to tweak the nvrm_daemon, to increase the frame draw rate.. on folio its was limited to 51 frames (tested with app: fps2d) and this tweak increases it to 78 and it shows in the fps2d app too.
Just so everybody is clear on what this hack does.. its changing the framebuffer rate, NOT screen refreshrate.
see this (
http://hometheater.about.com/od/televisionbasics/qt/framevsrefresh.htm) link if you are not sure what that means
testing this with NeoCore benchmark we hit 56 frames.. so im guessing Viewsonic Gtab also could benefit from it, but as i don't have one i cannot verify if the screen type works with this change..
Anyone with just a small linux knowledge and knows how to replace a binary, please verify this , and you might have another enhancement if it works.
download the attached zip and put the nvrm_daemon into the /system/bin and do a chmod 755 /system/bin/nvrm_daemon on the file too.. (remember /system need to be r/w)
reboot and test with "fps2d" from Market, and let me know if you gain 78 frames too ... (i hope so)
it should work on all custom roms, as im sure, you all use the same Gtab binaries for your hardware here..
