OpenGL davey

Expected Behavior

When doing logcat | grep OpenGl the output should be empty ( Behaviour on stock ROM )

Current Behavior

Using logcat you can see that there are a Loooot of frameskips. Screenshot_20221218-031321_Termux

This gets even worse when flashing a different gpu driver , from frameskip every 20 second to frameskip every second.... ( Picture above is with custom driver , you'll notice it's one month old - I've since reflashed stock lineage and left it as is but I still get the Daveys - same exact message just the frequency is much lower - every 10 to 20 seconds )

Link to custom drivers ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/adreno-driver-for-poco-f3-and-sm8xxx-sm7xxx-sm6xxx.4392655/ )

I'd LOVE to use custom drivers , performance increase is insane - actual fps difference of 10-20% if not higher ( Less heat as well ).

But it's not possible sadly... ( frameskips are happening every second - multiple frames gone... )

Device has mini freezes , where it stalls for few miliseconds then it resumes drawing frames , when playing you don't notice freeze because who can actually notice 3-5 frame skips... it becomes apparent when new frames start drawing tho - it teleports your character. Like imagine walking: one step > two steps > three steps > 6 steps , it feels weird ,you notice it subconsciously but it took me a while to figure out that what exactly is going on )

Steps to Reproduce

Flash rom and do logcat | grep OpenGl

This happens on a clean install, no modifications whatsoever. I personally use older firmware than the one recommended ( ik ik... but I asked others that are using recommended firmware and they too are having same issue )

To debug custom drivers - open telegram group, use bot to get links to download latest magisk version of drivers and install it ( Magisk version is less stable but it's less work setting it up than twrp )

Flashing twrp version will fail due to force encryption of android, it requires flashing dfe ( disable force encryption ) , this will delete encryption and delete your data. Only then you can flash twrp drivers
