it helps in lowering graphics and emulating other gpus so that a game which is tegra exclusive works on all phones
is a must have app on our phone for gaming
i tried lowering graphics using gtools3 on gta and the game is working too good
touch is completely responsive ingame (ie no lags when changing the view) and so on
Go to this thread for gameplay videos on our phone:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51197303
first download free version(limited features) from google play
or the xda version(all features unlocked) provided by the dev frm this thread

(Im using gta 3 as an eg to show how this works)
install gltools
(Note: Enable backup option in the app in case something goes wrong. a cwm flashable zip which can uninstall gltools will be formed)
open app. then give root access and install tex plugin(and not none otherwise this app wont work)
reboot the phone
open app. a list of apps installed will come up
select ur app(gta 3 for me)
check on enable custom setting
tick forcce 16 bit rendering
tick optimize glsl shaders
set enable texture decomp. to all
set enable texture recomp. to none
set downscale textures to 0.5 and check if it still lags make 0.25x(anything below that will make text unreadable)
i also faked gpu info though it may not be needed (i did adreno 320)
in gta 3 display setting i minimised the resolution and draw distance disabled frame limiter
now the game is very smooth (textures are blurred and graphics are low)
thats all
please share ur own config for any game u manage to make smooth
