There is an updated version 213 (which you can find attached to the first post).

This is supposedly the latest version for Sensation and is faster that for instance the 213 version that is included in AHRD 6.6.3 (don't ask me why there is a difference if it's the same version, it is a fact).

Now there is also a version 218, which is supposedly a port from the One X or so, that seems to be even faster, but less stable. The link to that one is somewhere in the thread (sorry don't have it handy).

Hope that clears things for you ;-)

JP.

    This Adreno GPU update is ONLY designed to work on Qualcomm S3 ARM7 Devices running ICS.

    Greetings, I have been on XDA for a long time and I hope that you all can benefit from this patch as we have over at the Amaze Forums. Here is a link to my Original Thread and evidence of this patch's success for our Qualcomm S3 Adreno 220 GPU devices running ICS.

    We have proven that this driver Patch has doubled our GPU throughput for 2D and 3D rendering.

    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631223

    I have only tested this on my T-Mobile HTC Amaze (Qualcomm S3 Adreno 220 GPU) and have not experienced any issues.

    I have created this Recovery Flashable Patch to Install the Qualcomm Updated Adreno Drivers on the "Official Ruby ICS" release.

    Qualcomm Developers Website

    I did not get a screenshot of the results before flashing this, however I have seen dramatically improved result on my Quadrant 3D scores with "Force 2D GPU rendering" UNCHECKED in the Setting->Develop Options Menu of this ICS Release. With this option checked I have seen improvements on both 2D and 3D. Although results are slightly degraded for 3D from post update the 2D results have doubled in value.

    Quadrant results were obtained immediately after restart to avoid any other processes interfering with the results.

    AFTER "Adreno ICS Update" Screenshot 2D Rendering NOT checked.
    attachment.php


    AFTER "Adreno ICS Update" Screenshot 2D Rendering CHECKED.

    If someone would post a screenshot of the before Quadrant result I would gladly add it to this post. Please only post results Immediately after restart for conformity.

    Android Ice Cream Sandwich Required
    Root Required

    1. Pre Requisites fulfilled (Root) (ICS)
    2. Install "Adreno ICS Update" to the root of your SD Card
    3. Toggle Signature Verification in Recovery
    4. Install zip via Recovery
    5. Fix Permissions
    6. Reboot
    7. ENJOI!!!

    Thank you dhkr234 for the flashable zip framework.

    Please post any other tested configurations and I will add them for other community members reference.

    The usual warning goes here. I'm not responsible for what you do, or how you execute, use this at your own risk!

    no offense, but most of of your results don't say anything since Quadrant is really bull**** let me explain why.

    -Quadrant is hackable by multiple applications which let u cheat with it.
    -One X gets lower 3D/2D then Sensation, which shows how bad the application is cause that is just not possible.
    -Quadrant does more mem/cpu/i-o testing then GL so its useless to test those gl drivers with quadrant.
    -Quadrant's points change by every benchmark, if you test with NenaMark2 you will get much more reliable results.

    And i want to warn all of you,

    Most rom's include the OpenGLES 2.0 2184622 instead of the GL files from this thread, so with the drivers from this thread u will actually remove the newer OpenGL files which came from One S series.

    be sure to check your gl version with opengles extension viewer.

    Tried this out with Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 and Fauxs 6b4.

    Using Antutu, my original score was around 6200. After flashing, it was around 4500. I noticed my RAM took a drop from ~1350 down to ~600.

    No difference in 2D and 3D for me.

    Seeing others' results though makes me think it's something with VI...idk.
