my phone is still stock, I could not put a permanent root yet, but I think I'll do to better performance.

Coming from PC Graphics if the display is doing that it looks like a fault with the GPU, possible over heating, not making contact with heatsink etc. Perhaps the game is making you phone overheat? I'll have to try the game myself and see if it does it.

Happened since the 2.3.4 update.

So,it might be the problem with the Game itself...generally i am limited to Angrybirds and Unblock Me types of games...so dont have much idea.

This is the only correct reply in the thread so far.
Custom kernels have fixed this.

This is because of stock kernel. HTC screwed up and you can't play heavier games games now. Known issue

Same thing happened to me on stock with the same game. Haven't tried it with CM7 and Faux's kernel yet.

Wow seriously? Wtf is up with HTC? They are really dropping the ball with this one.

Mine force closes samurai if I don't have wifi on ever since the 2.3.4 update. I just uninstalled samurai for now until htc fixes the problem. I don't really play games that much so it doesn't bother me. I do watch a lot of movies on my phone, so as long as it plays movies fine, then I am good.

Other games work fine. Gameloft games, battleheart, zombieville. They run on the unity engine, like samurai ii

Tested it out, works really well. No issues at all. To clarify, I'm running CM7 Alpha 5 and Faux's CM7/AOSP 0.1.9 kernel.

Rom help!

Hello,
I have mine and my wives sensations s-off and rooted and both running the latest Android Revoluttion 3.5 Roms with beats. My phone is fast and everything works great, apart from very occasional black screen freeze and lock up. Quick battery removal/restart fixes it. But the wives phone lags, freezez, loses WiFi. What should I do to fix it? Tried reflashing the Rom, but to no avail. She wants me to make it s on and remove root. Any suggestions before I do?
Thanks

Ps, this should be in Q&A

What radio are you using? Is the the new ICS leaks you are using?
You might want to ask stuff like this in sensation Q&A dude. Many people including devs might not appreciate this post in the dev section.

P.s don't remove root. Its like going back to stone age
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium

reflash with the full super wipes and if it is the ics rom, its only test version so don't expect it to be perfect. if all else fails, swap sensations to satisfy her

un-root it. your wife sounds like mine. they don't care and they don't want you messing with their phone.

Thanks for all the replies. I super wiped, redownloaded and replaced 3.6.11 AR ROM, and reflashed. So far so good. If it starts acting up, ill just remove the root. I dont need the extra nagging!

Same problem here, the wife uses Instagram on my phone and it kills it pretty much every time.

Freezing here too
Regularly freezes my phone, particularly during the application of tilt-shift and/or when clicking on the top right hand side arrow to process pic and upload. Really annoying. E-mailed them as well, hoping for a fix. In the meantime, no one cracked this yet?

this problem rekated with apk, not phone. i'm using xe with arhd without sny instagram problem but i tried same apk on desire, ideos x5 and galaxy ace, and noticed errors. if the program wants to work, it work like a charm. if it doesnt want to, you have nothing to do.
generally iphone port apps doesnt work stable.

I'm having the same issue

its new to android. give it time before the billion dollar app is stable on our phones. my phone has issues with it too.
sent from the Nudy Bar.

Since the most recent update it seems to be much more stable.
And by much more stable I mean being able to process and upload a picture without a hard reboot

I've found that if I reboot BEFORE I use instagram, it works perfectly. If I do NOT reboot it freezes. I've learned to work around this issue by rebooting BEFORE use. Then it works perfectly for me. My current Rom Beats by Grogg 3.0 v.B. but I think the reboots will work with ANY Rom. Give it a try. It solved my freezing issue, perhaps it will also solve your issue hope this helps! Good luck
Works for me!

There had been confirmed issues with some specific drivers and some specific apps (skype and istagram eg.), you can take a look in this thead for the drivers you might want try.

For those with Instagram problems, those drivers should fix it :

Please do report the results.

Will this work with pkmn rom?
Sent from my evolving HTC Sensation 4G

Absolutely Ricky!
They should work no problem with every ROM, clearing cache is also a good thing to do.

what do those drivers do exactly ? And I noticed this is for an adreno 200 but the sensation has adreno 220 ?

Gta3 and Max Payne sound issues?

Is anyone else having crackling sound issues in these games. Its driving me insane....

No issues here , I have heard that downloading over data and not WiFi will cause issues such as u stated ... Try re installing

I have the same problem. Dont know whats causing it other than rockstar havent programed somthing correctly.
Im running a HTC ONE XL, Telstra branded.

Same here - EVO 3D with ICS, sound is crackling

Same issue, att HOX. I thought it was beats audio at first, but even when you turn it off, the crackling remains.

You're not alone, I get the same with Max Payne, with GTA3, occasionally with Osmos HD... Some games are fine, others aren't.

I was having the same issue when I got the ICS update to my HTC EVO 3D. I contacted Rockstar and this is what they are telling me:
"I was talking to some people here in the office and they said that we have had previous problems with sound on the Ice Cream Sandwhich with GTA III Mobile. It looks like as of now there isn't a direct fix. You may want to revert back to your previous OS to fix the issue.
I'm really sorry for the inconvenience"
So yeah. Its all about the game and I dont think an update is coming for this issue. Not right now at least...

Yeah. I have this problem and it's really annoying. Only seems to happen when playing quality sound games like GTA. Doesn't happen in scramble free.
I called HTC support and they said it's because their speakers are too small.

No its not beacuse of HTC, its because of Rockstar and their programming. I was playing without any issues when I was running Andoird 2.3.4, but when OTA ICS update came, the crackling started. Its not becuase of the speakers, its all about the game.
I never tried GTA3 after the update, but it was fine for me when I was on 2.3.4, didnt had any issues, it was running without any issues just like Max Payne.

I'm happy to confirm that this issue stopped for me after installing the stock Asia 2.23 ROM. :good:

I never had that issue on my HOX, but I have on my TouchPad. It appears to happen for no rhyme or reason.

What
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium HD app

Me too!
I do not have sound issues with this game.

What could be causing these problems?

A few days ago I started getting random reboots and a bit more lag than usually. I thought maybe it was because of UV (-87.5) so I changed it to -50, but it didn't help. The reboots happen two-three times a day usually a second after turning the screen on. Also the lag is getting a bit annoying, it is noticible even when scrolling through the screens. It was better a while ago.
What could be causing such a problem? I am running android 4.0.3 rooted and unlocked S-OFF Elegancia Rom Sense 3.6. more info in attachments.
Also, I recently installed Dualcore Badass Tweaks By Iba21 CPU 384~1566 badass gov an Bricked kernel was installed earlier with 192 mghz min 1566 mhz max, max scrennoff 486, could this mean something?
Any help appreciated.

Have you tried changing your kernel yet? Try changing your kernel and see if the problem persists. Also check battery make sure it has no "wiggle" to it in the housing. If it does wiggle, stabilize it with a piece of paper. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

No, I didn't try changing the kernel yet. Will try it right away. The battery holds firmly, no wiggle whatsoever. Could this have to do anything with the governor changing when going to screen on?

thats fine ..the ram its showing is usable ram thats all
and yes ..after soff if you have unlocked hboot then the number shows 1.27.1111(juopunutbear hboot) and its not a problem

So I changed the kernel from bricked to faux123 192~1.51 cpu. Everything looked ok, but yesterday I got 2 reboots, both when taking a photo, what else could be a problem?

Have you checked to see if battery is loose ? If it has some wiggle this could be causing the reboots. If you find a wiggle put a small wedge of paper to stabilize the battery. Also make sure you're not under or over volted right now, this could be the cause too. For right now while your figuring this out don't under or over volt and see what happens. Try those two suggestions and hopefully the issue will resolve.

No, the battery seems ok. My cpu is currently undervolted by 50 mv,.but it was working fine even on -87.5. Will delete uv and report back.
