[Q] Angry Birds Hangs after some time - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hi All
I have been playing Angry Birds Rio , Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds on LG Optimus One with miks CM7 rom . I noticed it gets hanged after playing Angry Birds for some time . when i check the cpu utilization it spikes to 70% .
I have to kill the app and restart Angry Birds .
Has anyone noticed this problem .

I take the chance to ask here. Do you also have lag in angry birds? I run cm7+francokernel+zram and i still encounter lag. Way lower than in stock rom but still, is there any way to make it run smooth?
To answer the question, no it never hangs or fc-s for me.

It probably because there are too many services running on the background etc. and have made the internal task killer (not those you download from market) kill the angry birds process as it is really taking a lot of ram spaces because of its huge amount of particles... bricks, birds, velocity, physics calculation, audio...
normally the internal task killer is set to kill the foreground app to maintain system stability when your ram has only got ~5-10 mb left, but its surprising to happen in mik's cm7 as there are a lot of tweaks to make the system occupy much much less ram space.
maybe you should check whether there are too many services running in the background. in worse cases, you may try downloading auto memory manager from market and adjust the lowest 3 bars higher so that the ram will be harder to reach a low amount

as mentioned above, there are a lot of particles to be loaded in angry birds.. its not a game like racing cars, they count every brick's physics separately, whatever that you can touch with the birds, are monitored.
so as to run smooth its just a problem of your hardware, you just need a higher cpu speed.
faq: wtf why it runs so smooth on iphone then?
a: dont forget its single task but on ur android theres a lot of process running in the background while you are playing angry birds
solution: just wait some seconds when you start every level and play when the birds are jumping smoothly

You are right about what you say, but i have seen angry birds running smooth on nokia phones for god's sake with ~522 mhz cpu-s, while we run a better model and ~729 mhz. Not to mention the great rom and kernel that we have.

Hi Miasmic/vador9
Thanks for the replies .
@ vador9
Lag is present if im in stock processor speed 600 .
If OC the cpu to 480 - 730 . lag is reduced to a larger extent .
it doesnt fc for me but hangs .
@Miasmic
I checked not many process or services are running on my phone . 250MB memory is available only the cpu utiliztion spikes to 70% .
I will be check with the auto memory manager installed .

haha,
1) as same as apple, nokia provides single tasking so it can use all the cpu for the game
2) angry birds for android provides high resolution graphics vs low resolution on symbian phones thats why they seems to run smoother

oh then maybe it is not the problem of the ram, did you move the angry birds app to the sd card? (froyo+ a2sd - moving the app excluding dalvik cache to the fat-partition) try turn off ur phone, unmount your card and wipe it cleanly (i mean using a tissue paper not custom recovery lol) sometime this helps to solve some problems
ehm but i see something strange here... if you are playing apps like angry birds the cpu should have be raised to 90-100%... why only 70 on ur phone?

Hi Miasmic
Yes i had moved Angry birds to Sd card .
Thanks

try launching a stress test with setcpu with the highest stable frequency on ur phone, and see whether there are errors. also install something that you can see ur cpu stress on the status bar from market. check if the cpu is running as high as possible.
running angry birds with 70% can only be seen on a duel core phone lol its strange on p500.
if i helped anything i dont mind if you press the thx button xd
good luck!
