[Q] Real Racing 3 freezes! - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
Real Racing 3 is freezing when i enter the app, it just does that right after several seconds, and it freezes the whole phone, i have to restart it by holding the power button.
Phone: Galaxy S2
ROM: CM10.1 20130213 NIGHTLY i9100
Kernel: Siyah-s2-v6.0b5
Can anybody help me? I really want to play this game.
And Real Racing 3 is not the only one who freezes, just that R3 is freezing right at start, not like other games which freeze after 5-10 mins of gameplay.
Thank you!
P.S. For question "Why didn't you post it on ROM/Kernel forum, already did it before which no response.

Bump! Anyone please?

Got the same problem bro, freezes at race startup or when i receive notificaton! Other games working perfect! I'm on resurrection remix 3.1.3 (4.2.1) with dorimanx kernel! It seems we'll have to wait until new version and fix of the problem!?

it might be from ROM too, i don't know

Easy way to find out is to make a nandroid back up, flash a stock ROM, see if it works there, then load back your backup.
If it works on stock, then it's your ROM. If it doesn't work on stock, then it's the app.

thanks, installed stock galaxy s2 jelly bean rom and everything works good until now
looks like cyanogen devs must work hard lol

The game want to start in high quality (probably) that's unsupported on your device and then hangs (I have to remove the battery to make it restart). I think that the modded kernel fool the game.
On my Galaxy Nexus with franco kernel I solved doing this in the terminal emulator:
Code:
cd /sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.games.r3_row/.depot/eds
mv AndroidHigh.plist AndroidHigh.plist.old
cp AndroidMid.plist AndroidHigh.plist
Now it works

Why dont you try stock CM kernel? Also try a stable version, I9100 only has CM 9.1 stable....
I think that Siyah and Dorimanx (which is based on Siyah) might be the base of your problem...

Me too, and it freezes even after i used your changes.. After some time, it just freezes. Not somehow set graphics option in the kernel? I Kernel_Siyah-Dorimanx-V9.32-[01-08] - [17-06] JB-CM-AOKP-SGII-PWR-CORE and I just need it because I do not want to loose multiboot with other ROM. I tryied JellyBam 8.1.0 and ResurrectionRemix as it did the same thing. I'm really upset. It's working only on stock or ics (no support from my kernel). Criskelo Rom 4.0.4 was very good, but its old. Who understand the gpu settings in the kernel please try some others. For me it's hard.

To solve the freezes in Real Racing 3:

On my chinese phone, Real Racing 3 is not even downloading the data.
It installs the app, and then it sudennly freezes when its downloading the data for the game.
The little circle keeps making rounds but there is no progress going on.
Of course im downloading over wifi

Got the same problem, but on Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, none of these posts helped me, please reply to me :crying:

[BETA][DEPRECATED]HC3.2 Prime 1.7 Beta Testing over

This is a full build of HC3.2 with some customisation. Please use this for testing purposes only.
Testing over - Please get the final version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204267
Beta Release
Prime 1.7 Beta
MD5: af5726b84c58f36052f843d2846670f3
Alpha Release
http://kan.gd/uzo
MD5: bc34b39b1c2702ba35da7ce1d86ac561
Custom Kernels from 3.1 sources DO NOT WORK with this so it's your own fault if you try and it breaks! There is now at least one kernel that works on 3.2. Please report feedback on compatibility.
I'm not sure whether all the built in apps are working ok as deodexing this was a ***** so please test to destruction.
I'll be adding all of the features from previous builds when I get time and also fixing any bugs reported in this thread.
To Do:
Deodex
Optimise and Zipalign apk's
Add init.d Support
Tweak scripts
Get AnyConnect working
Add PowerMods
Add Dock Battery Meter
Update pre installed apps to latest versions
Add WIFI Ad-Hoc Support
Bugs found so far (These may also be present in the stock ROM)
Weather Widget - Last update time shows PM 0:38 (Should be PM 12:38)
Flash framerate problem still present for some. There doesn't seem to be anything I can do with the ROM to fix the issue as it has to do with /data
Problems for some with Videos/Pictures not loading properly. Backup and wipe to see if the problem persists. - Appears to be inherited from the Asus Stock ROM
I'm uploading a beta release, everything form my previous ROMs is now in. I have more to do like play about with VPN stuff but this is of the standard of my previous builds atm.
I've also added a zipalign on boot script and an automatic module loader so cifs, voodoo and hopefully tun as well work out the box.
Zipalign on boot script donated by the Xoom Tiamat team and written for Bugless Beast by Pete.
Automatic module loader script was also from the Xoom team but I have modified that to suit my needs.
Also a special thanks to Tera Tike for the new boot animation sequence.
To all patiently putting up with my rubbish UK upload speeds...
I'll update the thread title when the upload completes so you don't have to keep checking in the thread. f5f5f5f5
Why alpha? Whats the main bug in this rom?
Can this be used on WW versions? Or only US?
Sounds pretty Awesome!
Alpha version? So, still buggy...

Installing now. I am coming from Clemsyn Rom and Kernel Combo and did a full wipe. Since this is a full package I hope it works. Thanks for you fast work on this Roach.
Flashed it, working great.
Anyconnect from Cisco still doesn't work, but VPN Connections does!
I think the problem with Anyconnect lies with Busybox. It the seems the software tries to install some files, but fails somehow.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041502
Just installed it, apparently all the flashing process and loading the ROM was smooth and OK. So far I have noticed 2 issues: Quadrant benchmark cannot be run it gets stuck and freezes , the system tries to force fit to screen and also landscape mode, maybe this is the cause, the other is that I cannot play .mkv 720P or 1080P files that I used to be able to play before, the first video I tried to play oddly enough it offered me to start playing from where it was stopped last time(had memorized it apparently) but then it told me it couldn't play it, this was with the stock video player, then I tried it with Mobo player resulting in the same error: not able to play. This was tested with and without mini-hdmi connection to an external LCD TV. I will keep on testing it and reporting any issue. Maybe I will flash the netformer 1.5 kernel to see what happens....
I installed it and it boots fine. But 1.6 was smoother and the inputlag is really bad. I have just wiped cache and dalvik
Edit: ok, just let it settle a bit and now it runs great. Thank you for your work
wewt!
THANK YOU! great work once again roach ^_^ ; looks like my summer vacation has been cut short....lol

Good for you then! I tried several times and in the best case it showed a couple of graphical tests but stopped and did not finish, also I could not just get out of that application had to press the HOME icon.
Flashed Netformer and its not working. I get juust a lots of coloured stripes a croos the screen. Not possible to see anything. Going back to Alpha kernel and further testing
Sweet,quick work roach,i just got home,gonna try it now.
Edit:Works great so far,no problems so far,changed the wallpaper,connected to wifi ok,scrolls smooth and fast,internet browser seems to work fine,i dont see any big improvements or changes in this asus update,it looks and runs just like 3.1 to me,but then again im not technically smart,so i dont know what os improvements this brought for development.

How did you root your sgs2?
I'm on VK rom... I really flashed a lot of roms and this is the one I stick with, it still updates so thats good...
I maybe suggest to start all over. backup everything you need to backup and wipe your whole system. then just flash the vk rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559009
and if the battery issue is still there... charge your phone 100%, enter recovery mode and wipe your battery stats.
hope I helped a bit
The phone-bricker rom also looks good!! gonna flash and test it right away!! I'll let you know what I think of it...
I love the kitchen!!! Checkrom also has it! still waiting for that ICS rom to come.
grts!!!
unfortunatetly, the phone-bricker rom does not respond well in my sgs2... my BACK button and my homebutton aren't working... flashed it twice after full wipe. you know why this could happen??

so, the phone-bricker rom really bricked my phone. I tested it and as I said, my backbutton and homebutton didn't work anymore... and when people call me they only hear some loud noise, as if I was somewhere with a lot of wind, but not my voice at al (tested it by calling myself ) so I tried to start over and as I flashed the original ICS back, the call problem was gone. flashed the phone-bricker again and had the same problems. it's a real phone-bricker!! maybe other phones react differently...
still prefere the VK rom!! making my way back to it now...
grts
I also used many but so far, ICS Resurrection Remix and Liting' Rom are the best and stable.
Yeah now running the new remis and it is just what I want! A light smooth rom! But I don't get the tablet mode as you also can find in D4 rom... Is it a setting that I must change? I wanna try the sgs2 tablet!

[Q] Q.Unique Problems with CM9

I am using remICS-UX v1.4 ported for sl by rockysenu
problems faced after 2-3 days of using phone are
- Lag like hell while typing anything.
- Auto switch off sometimes.
- facelock not woirking(but thats not imp)
it would be appreciated if someone could help me here a bit. have been searchin threads regarding this lag from past one week...
Change your kernel, In development thread search arindam kernel with power efficiency. Go to recovery mode install zip it. Then wipe cahce.
1. Regarding keyboard lags, out seems to be a problem with the rom itself.
Though the rom is quite lag free, the swype seems to lag. Try porting some other swype from s2 our the original stock keyboard of sl, seemed to work better.
The problem its not with the swype supplied with rom as I tried porting the swype from remics to pandora rom, aroma miui and stock xxkpu. It worked like a charm. Its simply seems to some compatibility issues with the particular version.
Another solution I figured out for working with the same version of swype is, just give a small pause while starting each word you are going to type. It lags while detecting the first alphabet, so give a pause for each first alphabet.
2. Try switching to vurrut kernel or the arindam kernel as told above.
3. I'm not much a fan of face unlock, so don't try to work out
Press thanks if helped

[Q] Custom ROM, Custom Recovery & Custom Kernel

Hello!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Advance i9070.
I just customized it from 2.3.6 stock, to Light JellyBean v1.2. I use CoCore-E-8.6.4 as custom kernel.
I don't know what to do, the phone is very slow. Sometimes it freezes for a very long time, it freezes in the menus, it freezes on google play, etc. Sometimes it's for a short period of time, but sometimes it crashes the whole ROM and the phone reboots... :crying::crying:
What should I do? On 2.3.6 the phone worked like a charm...
Please teach me how to make it better (4.1.2 of course). Tell me what is the best ROM, best KERNEL, best everything for S Advance i9070?
Thank you in Advance!

Our device has got stable cm10.1, cm10.2, cm11(wifi toggle buggy), omni rom, slimkat, carbon and many Rome see the s advance original development thread for more details

Thanks for the answer. If I could have done it, it would have been great. It might still work, if I find the apps in .apk, it might just work, like an ordinary app. Does S-Voice belong to Samsung or Google? That's the only app that I want, I think. And I have it in .apk. I also have AccuWheather and Samsung Apps in .apk. I would lose Kies(I think), but the software is crap, backup and restore works only 70%. But there are more softwares out there that can do what Kies does, only better. So, I don't know, it's something to think about...

This is a Linux based (3.0.101) Kernel which is maintained by me kept inline with the Cyangenmod Kernel so this is compatible with ALL the latest KitKat Roms (unless otherwise stated in the ROM).
Please report anything good and bad so that I know what to keep and what not to keep for the next release. This also helps me push out fixes faster when presented with lots of information (such as logs etc.).

Are you sure that problem is directly related to the kernel? It sounds more like a Rom issue....does it work on your rom's stock kernel?

I guess the burning question for me if this includes all of Sultan's bluetooth fixes. His kernel for CM really is the gold standard for our device thus far.
I see you mentioned him in the OP so I am hopeful lol. I'd love to be able to flash this kernel with any rom knowing the usual plagues (such as the constant BT disconnect) are no longer an issue.
Thanks a lot for this! Nice to see the SR still getting some love

I'm pretty sure it's at the kernel level only because it works with @Sultanxda's kernel. His is the only 4.4.x kernel that WiFi direct has ever worked on for me on the skyrocket. It worked on the official CM10.2 ROMS/kernels but every since CM11 was introduced it's been broken. The ROM I'm using now could connect with WIFI direct when built with Sultan's kernel.
Even with Sultans kernel, Miracast (with uses WIFI direct) will connect but the graphics are all scrambled. I suspect that has to do with some of the memory enhancements he's made. If I knew how to build kernels I'd like to try using the official CM11 kernel source and only applying his WIFI direct commit to see what the results are, but unfortunately I don't know how to build them and can't seem to find the time to do the research to learn. Maybe one day.
I've had no issues otherwise and I've been using it for a few days now. Thanks

Once your screen goes black from the reboot, hold both the volume buttons until your device goes into recovery. Then either use ADB or your recovery's file manager to retrieve /proc/last_kmsg and it post it here. It always helps to present issues with a log ready, for future reference.
So... I got bored.
I installed the following ROM's and got bootloops for each (basically every 4.4.4 ROM I know of for Skyrocket):
AOKP - Dated 15-Sep-14

Once your screen goes black from the reboot, hold both the volume buttons until your device goes into recovery. Then either use ADB or your recovery's file manager to retrieve /proc/last_kmsg and it post it here. It always helps to present issues with a log ready, for future reference.

Never done this before (well, I know how to get into recovery...lol). I'll post the file in a few minutes after reflashing one of the ones above. Can i empty this folder when I'm done? There's 200 or so subfolders in there.
ETA: Added attachment.

Hmm interesting, since I dont have this device, I can't do this myself. But do u think u can you do the following?
1. Flash one of the Roms you listed that bootlooped above
2. Open my kernel installer and delete /system/bin/thermald
3. Push it to your device and install
4. Does it boot?

Sadly, bootloops again (I installed the AOKP rom; clean, no GApps, let it boot once, boot to recovery and flash modified zip).

Too bad i hope emmanuel fix this.. Anything i can do ..
Reboots
I was playing around in Tame earlier and my phone rebooted a few times. I wasn't doing anything too crazy, turned off SweepToWake, changed the governor to Lazy and it froze and rebooted. The first time it happened I had changed the max frequency and a couple of other things, so I attributed the reboot to that, however when it booted back up I only changed the two items mentioned above and it rebooted again, this time it stayed off so I booted into recovery and got the kMsg, hopefully it helps. That's not the first time I've used Tame, I initially installed it, changed a few things and everything was fine, but my phone had been turned off since then so I was going back in to set it back the way I had it.
I'm currently using the liquidsmooth as my ROM, and this is really the first issue I've had with your kernel (other than WIFI direct, but that's pretty much all the kernels for this device). I think you've even improved my battery life, I don't do gaming or anything so I don't really ever notice any performance gains or that sort of thing, but I haven't noticed anything moving slower, which is good.
Update
Another minor update today, sorry about the initial discrepancies! Blame me, since I don't actually have this device. Well it should boot on all ROMs now, enjoy .... I guess.
Works great on PA! I'll mess with it for a bit and provide useful feedback.

Flashed successfully on Carbon 10/17 nightly. Seems pretty snappy so far. Nice work! :thumbup:
Hi. Thanks for sharing this Kernel. I have a question...
Before, I was using Carbon with its stock kernel, Conservative governor and noop; there was no lag at all, but battery seems to last too little time in continous use and even when it was with screen off. Even before that, the CPU governor was set by default at Interactive, but the Skyrocket freezes in several times, sometimes after unplug it from charger or after unlocking it after a time (like 1 hour or something), sometimes the device hangs so long until I reboot it or it reboots itself. So, Interactive isn't the best choice for me.
The question is: What is the best choice for a governor if I want the longest battery life, but with any freezing any time?
Could you please help me?

Yes, I'm sorry, I forgot to say that actually I'm using Lazy governor at 96-1350 and sio as you recommended it, but I thought that maybe there's a no listed recommendation for maximun battery or something like that.
