Need Auto-Tuning Mode to select what is the best setting for each game to optimize performance per watt.
some game can run at 45fps but another game can run 90fps if Game Booster can select CPU Speed, Framerate Target for each game. I think it perfect.
Sorry for bad english.
Thanks.

I only have the second rp and I have no idea. If I had to guess it would be maybe a difference in how Pie displays and runs background services or it doesn't need to keep running the program to keep the clocks set.



I thought maybe it would be something like that. Its just weird to me. Game booster in the RP1 is running constantly always. And I've never seen it in running service on my RP2 with pie. On the other hand never had a lot of Google play services running on the RP1 but on the 2 there's like 10-13 running always.

Crickets. Really no one has noticed this or has any input?

I was wondering I have both Razer phones. And cortex and game booster on both. I noticed that on the RP1 Android 8.1 game booster runs non-stop no matter if your using the app or not. But on the RP2 with 9.0 it doesn't show up in running services at all any time.
Just wondering if anyone else noticed this or may have any input.

I really like the Cortex app along with the game booster. I like how all my game stuff is automatically added.

I would actually like the added option of locking the FPS at 30. Some apps, like Pokemon Go, don't behave correctly at higher framerates do to the app's polling and make certain actions more difficult. Currently, the lowest you can go is 40 FPS. I haven't been able to figure out a per app way to lock framerate.

About 50% of the games I play have the adjustment within the app. Either thru V-Sync or direct selection to lock it to 30FPS. I would rather keep this as an app dependent feature with a choice of using the app settings instead of the gamebooster selections.

The 2 examples below would be from Modern Strike and ArmaJet

So in main i think it is a good thing. I had better performance with the Game Booster and compared to other applications they where not that good as the one from Razer. I think you did a good job!

Need to add everything this has. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zappcues.gamingmode

Do set the Power Management mode of the Game Booster to Not Optimise. Otherwise sometimes, android will kill the Game Booster. Been there, tried there.

I would like to have the list to show the recent or most played games on the top. Easy to customise your favourite game! Simple feature, yet useful, right?

Anyways, pokemon go at 90hz are solidly fluid, i think your problem is with the screen protector. For me, I don't use any. Juz the screen and stock coating! Very well made.

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but...

I'd like to see an option to set a different refresh rate for display and input. My particular want for this is with Pokémon Go.

The game looks and runs great at 120 Hz, however there is a detriment to this: spinning Poké Balls (for curve throws) is A LOT harder to pull off than at 60 Hz. Due to this, I run the game at 60 Hz.

Seems this would be technically possible. I've had it "glitch" on me a couple of times. Despite being set to 60 Hz, sometimes when I open the game (either from waking the phone or switching back to it from another app), the display is running at 120 Hz, but inputs are still at 60 Hz (i.e. not difficult to pull off a curved throw).

How about iOS support, on Razer Phone it’s preload and it runs pretty well on my usage. I need that for my Applepad Pro 11, and if it could having on screen FPS counters as @Rox598 mentioned you can charge Rich Apple Fansboy €5 to even €10, to me please free code:big_grin_:

There was a cortex update and unfortunately all the issues I mentioned before are still present.

Version 3.1.58

Also seems to have removed the ability to see your wallpaper behind the games list? I liked that function so would be good to have that back.


The latest update has fixed these issues and the settings now stay the way you set them 🙂

Thanks to everyone that reported this!

1) A good improvement would be an in-game overlay for instant changes if something doesnt work properly...

2) I would really like to see the specs that each mode is using... Nobody ever specified this. I am confused if it uses the optimal options of games or is it full cpu, frames, etc. If its there, it gives a fake but always welcoming emotion of power in your hands... (I m on marketing sector)

3) It would also be nice to give (+gathering for company... Data is gold) some stats of the last gaming sessions played and what kind of games the user plays, etc. This would not only make the user start to guide himself between the thousands of mobile games, but it would make him understand where he stuck most to... This creates a more specified database which can lead to more personalized benefits and help categorize users in target groups. For example game deals for the user, some more specified recommendations of set ups depending on his own preferences of games.
Furthermore it could also give some trends about the Razer Phone users... For example, they prefer full performance in some games? or just dont mind and just saving as much battery as they can?

4) taking (3) as granted, the phone could save some settings in case of reinstalling a game, or the specific category of games that will be downloaded in the future.

Not saving set specs at custom is really annoying, is mentioned above... Without it, I only twice (got the phone since February 2018) sat down and had each game set up separately.

Hope I helped.

Integrating internal recording software would be appreciated. Currently, YouTube Gaming just doesn't do the essence of the Razer Phone justice.

This is a thread I made on Reddit as supplimentary materials.

Nope Razer Phone only due to framework and licenses etc. It might be available later at as launcher but who knows.

But doesn't Samsung devices have it's own version?


Yes, that's what i though after seing that i couldn"t use it.
And yes, there's an equivalent in Samsung but i'd like to see how Razer's one would have worked.
My bad for english mistakes but i try my best.

Didn't know there was a mobile game booster.
Since i often use the PC version, i'll try it quickly.

Edit : Too bad, it isn't compatible with my S7.....:frown_:

I miss the video recorder. I prefer to have my recording software at easy access for those really great, or really bad moments (pratically need it now in days as an in-game anti-griefing dashcam ready to record at a moment's notice). Wish we had that feature again


I don't think the Mobile Cortex app ever had this ability are you getting mixed up with the desktop Cortex?

It would be nice to have a highlights feature or if thats too hard to implement maybe have like a recording function for gameplay inside the app so we can customize how we can record gameplay.

Would love some customization options with the game booster like levels so that even some important notifications are still fed through, maybe some special phone numbers that could be marked as important.
