Hello everyone,
I have had my HTC One S since december 2013 and it's really an upgrade to my old Galaxy S Advance, though there is one thing that's bothering me. The lag. Yes. I really don't know why, but my HTC One S lags in the simplest games. When in Flappy Bird, the event where Flappy heads down again creates a slight stuttering resulting in me hitting pipes. My HTC outstands my S Advance in all aspects, though on my Samsung, this lag is not happening.
In Monkey Flight, also a very simple 2D game, lag is occurring as well. I recently installed "Bouncing Slime", which also suffers from the same kind of "falling lag" (when you jump and you start falling down again). I have absolutely no clue why this is happening, because my HTC handles games like Injustice or Riptide GP2 just fine.
I suspected some time the lag was created by the ads in a game when the game is loaded, though it occurs also when my phone is offline. I really don't have a clue. Also, my Beats audio is turned off as I never play with headphones (I read somewhere Beats Audio causes lag).
Technical information:
HTC One S: 4.1.2 | European radio
Everything is as closed as it can be. Not rooted and no bootloader stuff. I'm fully stock.
If anyone knows what's wrong, please let me know. This truly affects my experience with this phone.
(I am fine with rooting the phone btw, as long as I don't touch my bootloader)
Thanks in advance,
Anthe
I case of Flappy Bird everbody on every device have a lag. Even on Galaxy S4 there is a lag. It's not you device it's your system. I'm on cm11 and it work's great. Even with high end game.

Hello this is my first post here.I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s i9000 that i bought a week ago. I downloaded Pocket Legends from the market and when i play it ,the phone seems to overheat,the back side of it is really hot,especially the upper part. I thought that the processor might be heavly running to support the graphics and that might be the reason, but i am a little afraid cause i dont want to burn my phone.So,is it normal if the phone overheats when playing good graphics games?
Sorry for my english and if i posted in the wrong place.Thank you.

Hey I have the same thing when playing 3D games and web browsing.
Recently I was playing Pocket Legends and my phone got so hot it went black and into safe mode.
Anyone can help with this? I made a similar thread.
I have a Galaxy S and I don't have any problems while browsing or playing 3d games. No heat whatsoever. You should go to the nearest service and get it looked at if its still in the warranty...especially if it turns off because of the heat.
I have been using Darky's ROM and have been having trouble with pocket legends. Everything would be good and all, then it would freeze. No force close, just hang and a force reboot would be needed. Does anyone else have this?
I have had my Verizon S6 for a little over two weeks now. In general I like it, but I've noticed it seems to overheat easily. A repeatable scenario is while playing Olaf's Adventures (Don't judge me!) for about 10 minutes I'll get the "Cooling Down" warning. I won't have anything else running in the background. I tends to happen the fastest when I'm playing that and doing multiple things in the game at the same time (have Olaf run around & interact with his world at the same time).
To those of you who have a S6 could you download this free game and see if your phones overheat as well? I'm wondering if it's just my phone, or if all the S6s are that way.
Thanks!
I personally never had the overheat issue while playing graphic intensive games, such as WoT and Modern Combat 5. I think it's the issue with the app, not the phone itself.
Yes it gets really hot after playing for 7-8 minutes . But didn't show any warning . I think it's just an app issue.
I'll check out Modern Combat 5 and WoT and see what happens there. I also noticed it happened with Google Cardboard.
I downloaded and tried Modern Combat 5 and watched the temps with CPUz. It didn't seem to get above 61c, so either it isn't as demanding, or like you said Olaf's Adventures is poorly written. It worries me that Google Cardboard also caused overheating though. Does anyone else have heating issues with Google Cardboard? Again it could be the apps fault. I believe it was some VR theater that caused the overheating.
Got a brand new Galaxy S7 from AT&T a few days ago - everything is very fast as expected except one thing... games.
Noticed it first in Candy Crush Jelly - sometimes things will "freeze" like a lag spike hits them. When I move something in the game, the screen animation doesn't do anything at first then will catch up a second later.
Verified it by testing a few other games (Sonic Dash, Rayman Adventures) - there are definite hiccups among animations from time to time. It isn't TOO obvious but it's there.
I have tried disabling all the Samsung Game services and Game Launcher - doesn't solve it. Also tried using Google Now launcher but there is quite a bit of free RAM no matter the launcher in use so not sure that's it either.
I switched from iPhone where this wasn't an issue so it's fairly noticeable - is it normal or is this something I can fix?
iphone in general superior than android in gaming, and S7 is the worst gaming device i ever seen, sammy screwed up with 6.0.1 in that regard, Note 5 is light years faster than s7 with android 5.1.1, but with 6.0.1 it suffers the same freezes.
There is no solution atm, not all games effected but a lot, at least all i tested.
I just wanted to find out everyone experience with this game in terms of performance. I have a Snapdragon S8+ and notice that the game can stutter very noticeable at times even though most of the time it runs at 60 fps. My understanding is that it dynamically loads/streams content in which could explain the temporary dips in fps. I played the game when I originally got the S8+ and I don't recall having any stutter at that time. However, I went back to it recently and have noticed it now. I just wanted to confirm that this is a common issue with this game or if it's something specific to my device.
I'm having the exact same problems, certain parts are unplayable (where you rescue the girl and wander through the frozen palace).
Did you install via Play or from elsewhere? I picked it up as part of a humble bundle so I'm curious to see if the latest play store version is the same.

I purchased and installed it from the play store. Its version is 1.0.0 and no updates since May 05, 2016.

The same version as mine then.
It's a really good game, just virtually unplayable in parts. How far did you get?

I didn't get too far into from the first time I played it (I was still in Chapter 1). When I went back to it recently it was lagging with almost every step I took.
After playing around with a few things on my device yesterday I mentioned in order to get rid of the stutter I was seeing. I downloaded a software update HQH1 which appears to contains only the August 1st security update. I also uninstalled a few apps since I was running low on internal space. I also uninstalled Samsung Game Live since I kept getting a memory low warning message that was related to it and I wasn't using it in any event. After doing that and starting a new game, the stutter went away! I will play through the game and see how it goes but there was definitely something that appeared to be causing an issue. My suspicion is that the Samsung Game Live may have been causing an issue even though I wasn't actively using it.
Played this game on steam before. Sad ending
I was able to narrow down the issue with the constant stutter I am getting in the game. If I'm connected to a Bluetooth audio device such as my wireless headphones the stutter disappears right away. However, if the audio is playing through the S8+ speaker or even if connected to my headphones using the audio jack, the stutter returns which in turn makes the game virtually unplayable. At least now I have a work around to the issue. This reminds me another game, Badland, that has a really bad audio reverberation when connected to Bluetooth but the audio plays normally otherwise. I recall the developer for that game acknowledged that it was a bug in the audio driver they were using that it appears to have never been addressed.
Hi everyone.
Someone else experiencing problems while gaming?
I'm playing Dragon Ball Legends and sometimes the game becomes very very slow.
Tried deleting the game from Game Space, and it seemed worked at first but happened again...
I've set 120hz and 60hz manually also, and the problem persists.
Sometimes going to the home screen and back to the game works but I play online, it's annoying.
I think it's inadmissible for an expensive phone like this to have such issues. It's my first Chinese smartphone, and I'm not so happy with it
i find the GPU is set a little to passive. (slow to ramp up). Works well for battery though not so much for gaming. You can use "Game Space" an pre-installed app to make it run full power all the time. Games run great. Though phone gets hot and battery suffers.
IV been trying to use my PS4 controller via Bluetooth to play COD but it's just really bad lag and after touch movement, it's like after you stop moving or ADS it's like it keeps moving for about half a second very unplayable anyone else come across this?

Dragon Ball Legends works great on mine in any settings. I don't play online matches though. Maybe you just have poor connection?

Hi.
I fixed it turning off the battery saver option at the game settings!
That sh*t was bugging the game performance somehow, instead of helping me lol

Of course battery saving would decrease game performance. I'm glad you found the solution.

Well, I had a S7 edge and the Xperia xz2 before, always playing with the battery saver ON and had no big issues...
Yes the fps was far away from now, but I could play without any problems.
With the Oppo it's impossible to play.
My gaming experience has been less optimal lately, Fortnite is laggy even if I lower the graphics. Maybe the game is not well optimised? I'm on C57. Have you noticed anything like that?
