Hi, i hv facing some critical issues on my XPERIA XA, first of all it overheated after playing some high end games, e.g. MORTAL COMBAT X, REAL RACING 3, MC5 etc, and drained battery more faster than any other phone i'v. Any one facing problem like that, is any solution?

It's gonna get hot playing high end graphically intensive games just the same as any other device on the market will and drain the battery in the blink of a eye that's what games do.
The solution is either don't play games graphically intensive games for too long or play them where the device can get cool air if possible won't be a cure but it may help, or don't play them at all not really solutions I know but constantly overheating the device won't do it any good or using it while charging it.

My main purpose to buy the butterfly is to gaming on this full hd beast, but ended up dissapointed.
1st game I try- temple run oz- playable but full of spike lag.
2nd game I try- frontline commando d day- playable and full of spike lag too.
3rd game I try- gun bros 2- totally unplayable, loading super slow, ingame performance smooth while running around, but when happen explosion or too much enemies, game will freeze for 2-3 sec.
SnapdragonS4, 2gb ram, adreno320 should be very impressive SPEC. But gaming sucks a lot on the butterfly. Others scrolling performance is smooth.

Strange, my son plays these games also (i am too old for that **** ) but i didn\t hear him complain. Should be as smooth as butter(fly) :laugh:
Are you from some other manufacturers go into this topic to put the Butterfly down (like SS fan did)? He he, just for kidding. I play some heavy 3D games such as PS3 simulation, N4SP... and everything perfect. Butterfly is so smooth, fast.

PS1 emulator is fine for me. But I just dont know why Temple Run and Gun Bros 2 lagging like hell. the graphic not really high enough. is it because i using stock rom?
If i look the results of Antutu benchmark an performance increasement of 20 procent is possible by flashing a custom ROM
Think there may be something wrong with your model. The HTC Butterfly has the Snapdragon S4 Pro (was the best in the world a few months ago) so it should be perfectly fine with games like those since they aren't particularly high on the graphics part
Temple Run 2- running smoothly, no lag
Gun Bros 2- no freezing / no lag
Real Racing 3- (which i believe is one of the most graphic intensive games)- running smoothly.
For Temple Run & Gun Bros, I am playing on Power Save On. Real Racing I haven't tried yet, but generally I switch off Power Save mode.
Try restoring to Factory Settings and play again. S4 Pro is a very good processor and Adreno 320 is the latest thing.

your model? mine is X920D. running stock rom. Is it i must flash custom rom to play those game smoothly?
X920D.. Stock ROM.. Not even rooted till now..
Rooting and flashing a custom ROM might increase performance, however it shouldn't be a must since the phone is really fast. I also think maybe something wrong with your phone. I have seen scores with antutu approx 22000 so i cannot imagine not be able to play the latest games......
There must be some problem with your unit. I managed to play those games on my Butterfly when I got it. Temple Run 2 did have some freeze ups but I didn't blame it on the phone but the game since heck I can play modern combat 4 and dead trigger very smoothly. Is it also possible that you have multiple apps running in the background like skype, viber, whatsapp, and others (if you see a lot of icons in your status bar's top left side)?
I generally get great battery life using regular apps throughout the day. But many games seems to eat up battery life quicker than I would have thought. That coupled with how hot my phone gets, I'm a little worried there may be an issue with my phone.
The two games where my phone feels like it is burning up are Plants vs Zombies 2 and Anomaly 2. After playing a session, a quick look at the battery graph shows an extremely steep drop.
Is this normal? Maybe it is, but it doesn't feel or seem right.

its normal. cpu and gpu intensive games will warm up your device to a toasty level. but that why they make the phone have a thermal throttle. when it hits a certain temp, you phone will automatically reduce the cpu speed to cool down a little. but the heat from gpu/cpu intensive games is more than normal, its expected. btw, the safety shutdown temp for the n5 is 100C, which youll never reach because of the thermal throttle, only if you have root and disable thermal throttle, then it could hit the safety shutdown temp
I know about the problem with Plants vs Zombies 2, it eats through battery like crazy. I don't think that there is an issue with your phone, because your battery doesn't drop like that at any other intensive game, does it?

I've noticed the exact same thing with PvZ 2. It's addictive as all hell, but chews through my battery.
I really wish they would release it on the Amazon Appstore so I could put it on my Kindle Fire. Unfortunately, because of the Google Play integration you can't even sideload it to a Kindle, you just get a black screen when you try to launch it.

I don't play any intensive games actually and I wouldn't even catagorize PvZ2 as intensive. Maybe it is just suboptimally coded apps. Anomaly2 isn't even really that intensive. Not like a FPS/3D game anyway.

PvZ2 is terrible. Get Franco kernel + his updater app. Set the per app mode of PvZ @ 652MHz. Still runs fine. The only difference you will notice is when the last big wave hits, there can be a little slow down, but it goes away quickly. With all 4 cores running at 652MHz, there is virtually no heat. Will get you 1+ hour more game time. I'm experimenting with underclocking the GPU for it as well. I don't want to underclock the phone when I'm just using apps, but these games are using much more power than they need to be using. 4x, at least.
I think it's poor coding, as @flintdragon suggested.
I noticed that the Galaxy S6 drains quite a lot of battery while playing games and I'm not talking about heavy games like MC5 or Real racing 3, I was just playing some 8Ball pool and some amazing brick..The battery goes down very fast..
Do you experience this too?
Share your thoughts on this issue.
Iam thinking to buy xperia z5
I don't experience any heat problems
Sent from my Xperia™ Z5 using Tapatalk
I received the xperia z5 1 month ago. First i had a z3 compact with snapdragon 801. I have noted some heat differences. It's true that the z5 is an hot device, but not so much as you think. The most important problem is the battery... 1 day of normal use. With z3c i was having 2 days in normal usage.
Sorry for my bad english, never studied it.
That's right, I have no heating issues, but the battery could do better.
I have heating issue when play any game above 300mb it heat like heater so not able to play any good game but sometimes it dont heat while playing games like asphalt 8
I think its heat related to cores when shift
I experienced some pretty bad heat problems, the phone will get really hot while watching YouTube videos or open more than 4 apps. I still like it but it can get pretty hot sometimes.
I'm playing have games but my op6 /8gb heating too much....... already hard rest & flashed full Rom ...
Any suggestions ?
i have no problems with ehating my i dont play high demanding games like minnecraft or fortnite or pubg so if you play 1 of these games then its normal that it makes the phone hot.... i played VR on my galaxy phone and it also got very very hot.
Maybe you should send your OP6 in for warranty.
I'm playing demanding games and the temperature never exceeds 50 degrees celsius.
