No, I have LG e970 and used kitkat 4.4.2Is your Model Galaxy s5 SM G900H and you using Android Kitkat ???
Either was banned or deleted his account. The OP is NOT the developer of the app.
I remember he was something like "n0n4me".. He rather posted on google play to earn money.
My device is an I9505.i put the 3cf plugins in device storage.after that i installed gltools.klicked on tex that it became white.by the way there are wriiten in red "(GPL)(Patent).i install and everytime i open app it comes the same installing pic.what did i wrong?
Hi all. Seems like something is wrong with this thread, so find another OP to receive updates of XDA version please. (I prefer to provide updates by gmail because I visit XDA very rare).
Are there any tricks you used to install this on the Note 3 other than having a custom kernel? I keep hearing about people bricking their devices and I've been hesitant to attempt installing.
This doesn't use any of the chainfire plugins. All you do is click the 2nd plugin and check the three check boxes and click install.
Hi all.
Seems like plugin server uses the new API (again), so the current XDA-developers version support is discontinued.
If someone wants to take control of this thread (and fix anything what happened here, I mean that OP's messages were removed) - email me and I'll send you a xda-developers version (but note that this thread should be fixed first).
If no one will do that - anyone can use a pirated one as well, since it is ad-supported from v1.28 (and has no restriction except ads).

Hi guys,I have a Sony xperia L and i downloaded the gl tools and use this,my quiestion is: can i have any problem with my phone,because i use MSAA16 anti aliasing in gt racing2? Don't damage the gpu? Sorry for my bad English
No it wont damage
In extreme cases it will lag on full antialiasing
Otherwise it cant damage anything

Just installed and it's working great on my Note 3 with Lean Kernel, just choose the install option that wasn't default and BAM Wolf Among Us is working. Great app
Any suggestions for running modern combat 4 in wiko stairway ... I have downloaded latest version of GL tools from google play ... Any custom settings to make it work ...

for galaxy star follow the steps in the above threadrecommended settings for asphalt 7 plz ??
thank you
also use trial and error with different gpus (or if u know the particular gpu the game works on then do that)

Uninstall GLTools libs through it's menu, it will do a fast reboot, now make sure you open it with a working internet connection.
Above it will show deafault and TeX plugin, select TeX plugin (it will show with white color) and tick all 3 below and install.
There are 3 ways that developers do their games:
1. Specific platform:
They are only for a specific platform and for tegra they have THD in their name.
Only way to download a game like this if it's blocked, is to change build.prop device names temporary to let's say Tegra shield.
This will trick Play store into thinking that you have Tegra Shield and will let you download the game.
Restore build.prop backup and fake gpu in GLTools
2. Many platforms, different revisions for each
This is like Horn. They support Adreno, Mali, PowerVR and Tegra.
Whatever you have, will download different files (apk+obb). Obb are different because they use specific gpu vendor compressed textures and shaders.
In this category you change again build.prop to trick play store into downloading the correct version. If you 1st buy the game, you have to uninstall it and then change build.prop and download it again.
Restore build.prop backup and fake gpu in GLTools
3. Same for all
Like Dead trigger. Apk and obb is compatible with all. You only configure GLTools.
Decompression better be in Unsupported only. "All" requires a lot of ram, you don't have a problem so try this also.
Recompression the best quality is "Disable", this also will give probably faster load times. I leave it to Decompressed only though.
This needs a little clarification though. Because leaving compression sometimes helps in performance.
You certainly need Decompression to unsupported only and up though. Otherwise proprietary texture formats will show us black.
So basically it uncompress the textures, then it will load them and if the original was for let's say for tegra it will recompress it to one that is supported natively from the gpu you have. This is speculation though
But I think that's why Recompressing all is not recommended.
Test case speculation:
So let's say we have Format1 (for adreno), Format2 (tegra unsupported natively) and Raw (uncomressed):
Code:Settings: Decomp "Unsupported only", Recomp "Decompressed only" Raw->Load it Format1->Load it Format2->raw->Format1->Load itCode:Settings: Decomp "All", Recomp "Decompressed only" Raw->Load it Format1->Raw->Load it Format2->Raw->Format1->Load itCode:Settings: Decomp "All", Recomp "Disable" Raw->Load it Format1->Raw->Load it Format2->Raw->Load itCode:Settings: Decomp "Unsupported only", Recomp "Disable" Raw->Load it Format1->Load it Format2->Raw->Load it
So for Quality: All and Disable
For performance and low ram: Unsupported only and Unsupported only
For performance: Unsupported only and Disable
Correct me if I'm wrong
EDIT1:-------------
Played Horn 1.3.2.6
Works great.
Settings:
Decomp: Unsupp. only
Recomp: Decomp. only (Disabled gave me crashes)
Fake GPU with Tegra 3 profile
The game has no difference between T3 and T4. I sticked to Tegra 3 for compatibility.
1.3.2.7 version has Tegra 4 Support. Will check with that and see the graphical differencies.
EDIT2:----
Fixed some typos.
Also about having uncompressed textures it seems that because of the architecture of all gpus, this is not a good idea.
Currently optimized game uses uncompressed textures and that's to optimize vram buffers and performance.
So it seems that there's no need to uncompress them because the quality is already reduced.
Like mp3s. There's no need to make it wav. The bitrate is already lost.
So Decomp should really just be to unsupported only (without it you can't play DXT textures in let's say adreno gpu).
And recompress should be decompressed only, so it you can have optimized buffers.5Hi all:

I switched from different GPU ID, from Adreno to Tegra. I took some screenies for comparison.
Adreno mode (original)
Tegra 4 mode
Noticed that some of the textures like crowd, race flags and fences dissappeared in Tegra but it smoothed out the jaggies from Adreno, put some added reflections and depth blur.5
Your mediaserver crashes, when loading vorbis (.ogg) files. Specifically at native functions:
Code:#00 pc 000059dc /system/lib/libcutils.so (android_atomic_add) #01 pc 0001bfae /system/lib/libutils.so (_ZN7android7RefBase12weakref_type7incWeakEPKv) #02 pc 0001bff6 /system/lib/libutils.so (_ZNK7android7RefBase9incStrongEPKv) #03 pc 00008bea /system/bin/mediaserver #04 pc 00016cfc /system/lib/libc.so (__libc_init)
Dev will know probably what to do.
Yours is easier to understand. It crashes when loading icon.
The nativeHeap runs out of memory. Probably because you have loads (and I mean looooads) of apps, or you enabled system-wide texture decompression of all apps and recompression disabled.
So I think that this is fixed easily by putting android:largeHeap="true" in GLTools AndroidManifest.xml
I can make a modified xda version for you to try, but it will probably fail on license check.
Here's your logcat bit of info:

On another note, it's true that the best options for texture is Decomp: Unsupported only and Recomp: decompressed only.
I checked with Horn:
Recomp: decomp only: 411mb of ram
Recomp: disabled: 928mb of ram. (Faster loading though)
So yeah disabled gives me crashes, because some times it can reach more than 1.5GB ram usage.
And as I said before there's is no need to have decompression: All, because the extra quality is already lost and also the performance is way better with compressed textures. Don't forget gpu can load the compressed textures right away if they are supported.
Also having decomp: All, recomp: decomp only will increase your load times by a lot!
So I want to ask the dev, for tegra games on an adreno/powervr/mali gpu, if he can ask Saem Persunt to implement texture recompression,
by using Renderscript as an option. If the code is good this will use the gpu and the loading times will be waaaaaaay faster.3here is the instruction to right work this app:
- insert the plugins.rar (from chainfire3d) in the root memory of the smartphone
- install and download gltools from playstore
- open gltools and now you see that the texture hve a name of developer of the plugin
- click on install
- the device will reboot
- now select your game to mod with tegra driver
- now all works!
