and with doomkernel v11 78FPS!!!

On which game/app do you get those fps??
also is there any app like fraps for pc to print fps on screen??
Thanks nickholtus!
Using dualboot kernel here and I have bad frameskipping issues.i am using quadrant standard for this..
no i don´t have any glitches.
if you get some i will try to fix that
Regarding this, the device cannot truly run at more than 60fps (we have a 60Hz screen) so what will happen if you got 120 fps then you will only see 60 of the 120 frames, 60 will be skipped, so you still get the same viewable framerate

Excellent work Nick, thanks for this
Yes that would work (don't forget to reboot after)

Do you mind explaining steps on what to do through the phone with terminal. I just want to make sure i am doing this right.
Thanks!
Open up a command prompt which can run adb then:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell copy /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak
adb shell echo "debug.gr.swapinterval=0" >> /system/build.prop
adb rebootThe phone should reboot and change be made

So let's say if we're using the device, and the homescreen looks like it's running at about 30FPS (I kinda got an eye for 30 vs 60), would using this tweak give it a jump in speed or just remove the limit cap only? I know what you mean by only getting 60FPS because of using a 60Hz screen. Just a thought.

Swap interval usually means v-sync for computers but since this is a phone, I'm not sure why the refresh rate would be halved for 30 fps...
I'll have to test this out later.

If you were replying to what I said, I didn't mean the count being split in half in that way. Some launchers are heavier than others, so maybe if using a launcher with many widgets, causing framedrop, vs using Launcher7 or Zeam which are very lightweight.
You can enable vsync too, but I think most custom kernels don't contain the stuff to do it
It has really bugged out my screen, disabled it for now. If you are epileptic don't touch this

Makes sense. I was just brainstorming.

I have other GPU & UI tweaks built into build.prop. I'm curious to see how well all of them work together.
all these "tweaks"/"hacks" are useless for daily use...
i dont think we need Unlock FPS for Xperia 2011... we have 60 FPS limit which is fine as the UI is smooth...
these hacks are useful on devices like Xperia X10 where there is 30 FPS cap...
this has all been tested way back (almost a year back) and will just cause TONS of artifacts even with small things like menu scrolling...

the only use is to show high benchmark numbers

so its like frameskipping since the screen is a 60hz screen and cant except anymore than 60fps sounds like a waste of time
