hey guys, my optimus one keeps rebooting whenever i try to install an hd game like air attack hd, drift mania hd etc ..while reckless racing and some others work fine ..has anyone else faced this problem? ..am on megatron v1 and franco kernel v19.2
HD is a suffix that doesn't really mean anything in this context... it just looks cool.
When exactly does the restart happen? When you start the install, after a while, when you're done and launching the game for the first time...?
What's your system like? Do you use anything like DarkTremor? Do you install to internal memory or SD? Have you connected your phone to your PC and checked if there are any leftovers in .android_secure? Do you have ADB ready? Have you cleared your cache?
air attack hd is not compatible for the p500

specifically what hd games are you talking about?
honestly i can't remember THOSE HD GAMES that caused the rebooting..
i remembered just one..
GuerillaBob.. and mostly Gameloft HD Games..
that's all i can remember
The specifics would be:
1. Connect to your PC, check the SD card for errors, then check if the list of files in the .android_secure matches what your phone reports to be installed on SD.
2. To clear the cache, restart into recovery mode, then select "clear cache"
All of this probably won't help with most Gameloft titles though... they are simply not designed for your hardware (and as far as I remember not sold to people with such devices). Obviously that still shouldn't crash the installer (though it is expected to crash the game), but my guess is that the games are simply too big.
guerrilla bob is not even supported on our phone so theres no way you could've downloaded it from the market. WAREZ
i downloaded guerrilla bob from some site and installed it..it runs for a few minutes then closes automatically..but, that's another matter...

it's overclocked to 748mhz..am on megatron v1..i know not all games are compatible with our phone but then it should give some error or something while installing..but the installation goes on forever and then the phone reboots..samurai vengeance, air attack and drift mania are the ones am talking about..

does the game size matter?..nova is running fine even though it's bigger in size than the ones i am talking about..
Let's put it this way: if a game is big, it usually has a more complex structure inside the APK as well and that can cause issues... at least that's what it looks like to me, but I haven't worked my way through that part of the Android source yet. Of course, it should not happen, but who knows what the malware you've downloaded is trying to do. Just stick to the market, for your and our sake, which is BTW also the component that's responsible for "not compatible" messages. APKs themselves don't have any concept of "compatibility".
in regard to the size of the game' i think that doesnt even matter.. i have a NOVA also running on my phone and it works fine on stock 2.2 rom ~
about guerillabob.. i managed to play this game that's when i was on custom rom (void #forever) OC'd @ 768mHz..
HD Games TIP : tried to find APK that is running on ARMV6.. (GuerillaBob for ARMv6) coz i think the APK's that you downloaded are not working on AMRv6 that's why when we tried to install the game' it reboots our phone automatically.. we all know that phone has their different specs' hardware and limitations
HOPE IT HELPS ^_^

Hi all,
I have a mini pro (rooted + xrecovery + apps2sd) and got a problem the last few weeks.
While playing some games the phone after a while freezes for about 10 sec. and then reboots.
At first I thought it might be a problem with the stock 2gb sd card that came with the phone in combination with link2sd that I was using at that time so I decided to buy a new Toshiba 4gb class 4 sd card and use the xrecovery + apps2sd script.
The whole procedure went fine but the problem is still there.
To be more specific I am having this problem as I've noticed in some specific games
- "Drop" is freezing every time after two - three games
- "Abduction 2" will freeze less frequently, so I might be able to play for a long period without any freeze or maybe not.
But I have encountered random freezes in other games too even while I am in the main menu not even playing but this happens really rare.
So is it a sd card problem or something with apps2sd?
Maybe firmware? I am at the latest one (.06) and have to admit that previous versions were much better (less lag etc.)
In other words has anyone encountered the same issue?
Yeah, I have the same problem but it rarely happens. I'm in the latest firmware too, .6

i've had a similar problem while playing air traffic control, sometimes it freezes and closes app after game start and sometimes it freezes after a few minutes of gameplay.
also, when playing hex defense, the games freezes and closes when using the most right cannon (the one that costs $50 in the game and launches energy waves around it), if I don't use this weapon, the game goes on and on normally.
btw, my phone does not reebot after the game crashes, it goes back to "desktop" screen.
So we are three people already with about the same issue...
Anyone with a possible solution?
Same thing happens to me !
but mine isn't rooted so it could be something from stupid SE
the same thing happens on my mini pro
for example, jewels,fruit ninja,4 teh birds and etc.
can jit in 2.2 solve this problem?
my mini pro: rooted, cpuset, link2sd

I was almost sure that it was something wrong with the latest firmware (.06) as I thought that everyone posted here had it installed but now you really confused me...
I never had any problems with my first 2.1 firmware (.504) with any games but when I installed the latest, I did the whole app2sd thing too and maybe that is the problem.
Probably some games have issues when running from the sd card...
On the other hand "Nayef.Muhiar" said he has the same problem but he is no rooted so no app2sd for him then... So what then???
I am pretty sure it's the defect of the firmware (.06) fr SE.
Phone restarts automatically while playing AngryBird, even I started the game and just put aside. Already flash 3 times still having the same prob. Non-rooted & rooted still the same. Anyway to make a complain?

this problem happened since the upgrade of 2.1
when i was using 1.6, the games (jewels, fruit ninja...)worked perfectly
ps: it should not be the problem of app2sd
i tried to install the game in phone memory but it's just the same
The same problem here on a mini with .504 firmware, it happens when i'm playing game dev story, it freezes but what i do is to lock the phone and then unlock it and the game runs normal again.
My phone: rooted, link2sd, setcpu on demand
Thanks for the posts guys you are really helpful with your info.
Till now seems a problem that:
-Happens in all firmwares
-rooted or not
-app2sd/link2sd or not
-in different games to almost everyone...
For example I don't have any issues with Angry birds like "rickyccp" has etc...
Had freezes with prism3d ans mystique : ch2
Unrooted phone, un flashed phone, .6 update.
Using the default launcher.
Never had this problem with 3d games

Yes it happens randomly, now i don't have any problem with the games, this problem is in minicm too?
i dont know
Update:
So I did some testing and reflashed .06 firmware and just rooted + app2sd but the freezes and reboot still happening.
Afterwards I reflashed again and just rooted without app2sd (games in internal) but still the same...
So I am pretty much sure now that .06 fw is the guilty here.
As I've mentioned in .504 a problem like that never occured.
BTW is there a way to switch back to .504?
Latest update:
Problem still there with floyo.
Can someone please tell me if there is a way to go back to .504 older SE firmware?

omg...
you may search for the official .504 rom and flash it by Xrecovery
but i am not sure whether such a rom is available in the internet
mine is on .06 and it restarts on speedx 3d game
i think it a problem for the SE stupid software
Everytime I touch Install Driver it said: Cannot mount.
Rom used: UrukDroid 1.0 So it fully rooted.
I tried to play Plan&zombie but it keep closed,
ive gotten past the mount issue, it reboots but then next time i load the software it still asks me to install... no issues though
edit:
ive got it working , need superuser but a not r/w access given at boot im guessing it cant mount something thats already mounted
right issue... it doesnt keep after reboots...

How did you get it working?
installed Chainfire3D 1.9 on Uruk 1.1b3 today without any issue. Just install like any app, set some setting and played with Contract Killer. No much diff though.

You can install it on UD1.0 too
Since the Version 1.8 (of chainfire) the app works on our gen8
+1 Install works fine since 1.8.
And what's the difference with or without it?

There doesn't seem to be much difference, maybe more stability, but if you install the Tegra plugin, you can play Tegra 2 games such as Samurai 2 Vengeance, though the performance is a bit laggy. There's two other plugins as well, but I haven't researched which games they enable.
Also, I love Night Mode when I'm out late bow-fishing. I can turn the screen on to change songs without killing my night vision.

Somebody say that they have a better game experience with it
i can say: Gun Bros works better
and you can set a few options for games about graphics details and quality
from my opinion its very good
OK, it seems it's worth to install I'll try it. I'm not a hardcore gamer, all I need is Filler and HexDefence and Need for Speed sometimes but if Starcraft will be ported to Android this could help, I think.
I set Chainfire 3d to these settings for Shadowgun.
In Chainfire3d: Default OpenGL settings
Reduce texture quality
Reduce texture size
Disable MapBuffer emu
The download of the additional files gets to 100% and then it crashes. Any idea on how I can get it to finish?
I have it on my XOOM, where in its file structure can I just copy it over to my Nook? Thanks.
I just copied over the entire com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder from my SD card on my phone and put it on the sd card for my nook. After doing that I started the app, it downloaded past 100 percent, but started right up. Plays perfectly so far.
You guys got shadiwgun working on this wow make me regret giving my nook to my wife and getting a Acer iconia tab
Lol

Mine works until its loading the first level. I can see the intro flawlessly, but when it finishes or is skipped I crash after a while in the loading screen. I don't get FC it just got back to previous screen (Chainfire)
it plays. very stuttery and jerky past the first level, but it still plays. When I first bought the game i couldn't get it to play but if you know how to search right, you can find a version floating around that has been optimized for none dual core devices.
That's the best I can give you. I paid for the game so i won't direct anyone to a pirated copy, but there is one floating out there that doesn't need tegra.
I tried the low version and still got same result. Maybe there's something wrong with my sd cache files since it kept freezing during the download...
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk
Here is what I did to get it to work:
1) Get ShadowGun v1.0 and SD files
2) On Chainfire3D go to default open gl settings
3) Set plugin "NVIDIA", check "reduce texture size", "disable mapbuffer emu" and "hide cf3d id" (check reduce texture quality if you want better performance)
4) Run game.
5) ???????
6) Yeah... Profit!
How do I get it from the market is says my nook color is not compatable?
The market version isn't going to work. You have to google for it.
Where do u get the plugin from? Can anyone help?
google "chainfire 3d plugins". you should be able to find it. By the way, the plugins are zip files, once you've extracted them from the file you download just put them on the root of your sd card and install from the program.
I have tried several times, but it will not find my plugin file. I downloaded the correct one and used drop box to put it on my nook. Can anyone help thanks
The files:
libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.zip
libGLEMU_POWERVR.zip
libGLEMU_NVIDIA.zip
need to be on the root folder of your SDcard.
Don't forget that you need to "install plugins" before "Use plugin/Load a plugin"
Igot that done, but now it bombs out after it gets to 99% of the first download. Any suggestions?
I had it bomb on all of the downloads. It you keep trying, they usually download. Did you try installing the sd files? When I did it caused me to freeze on the downloads. Keep trying, took me awhile... Nothing like downloading til 99% then freezing.. drove me nuts

well I got everything installed, and the game seems to run smooth, but my controls aren't on the screen.....
-_- Are you kidding me..
Read my graphically intensive games thread (includes Modern Combat 3, NOVA 3, Dead Trigger, Shadow Gun, and Mass Effect Infiltraitor) for any games info and how it works, why it works, and how to do it yourself. No Chainfire is needed. Shadowgun and Dead Trigger can even be downloaded from the Play Store. Im not trying to sound like an ass, but make sure you SEARCH before you post. I had to learn it the hard way xD
All the stuff in the thread is CM7 and CM9 compatible.

Hi!
I have read almost everyone gets AG original to run on 5830i,but on mine it freezes on the intro screen/"movie" just before first level.
Game starts, I choose first stage,first level, I see intro screen where the birds looks at empty nest the music plays. The screen shold slide to right but it does not it stays, music stops playing... and THATS IT. When I open Task manager I see 0,00% 3.10% cpu usage for AG orig when I came back to the game I see only black screen.
left it over night - I have read it loads slow - didn't help
cleared the cache and memory - did not help
installed not from market, from rovio site, some other - same black screen
I just got this phone, it supposed to be brand new, has stock 2.3 Gingerbread with sammy touchwiz.
I have 102 MB of free internal mem, and 1,4 GB of SD.
Please any advice. Is the unit faulty or badly flashed or something?

I reflashed my phone with same stock rom with full wipe but the problem persists. Angry Birds still freezes on intro.
What can I?
Probably try modified rom and see if it freezes.Any other options to try if modified rom fails to amend it? Hardware bug?

I can try modded roms on weekend to see if it makes any diffrence.
If you have any suggestions or routines/apps to test graphic hardware on S5830 feel free to shoot.

Hi guys I wonder if you can help me. I have had an ASUS ZENFONE 6 for a couple of years now and it has become very glitchy and erratic.
Also I can no longer install apps like Showbox, Cartoon HD and Tubemate. They will download but when I come to install them the option at the bottom has 2 boxes to click either cancel or install but install will not do anything like it is not an option.
This phone used to be fine and I ran all the above mentioned programs on it previously no problem.
I have ticked the UNKOWN SOURCES option and I have also reset to factory settings a few times which seems to make the phone work fine and responsive again but it quickly becomes glitchy again over the course of a day or 2.
I have also run mobile antivirus such as AVAST and others but they never find an issue , however I am convinced this phone is infected or something like that.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated such as what anti virus to use that actually work.

Thank you for that advice Augustoandro however id already thought of that and as i suspected it did not work. There is clearly something infected on this phone because as i said these apps and many others i have installed previously on this phone some of them more than once and there was never this issue before. Something must be blocking the option to install these apps disabling the install buttons
it has root access? if it has maybe thats a problem if you have a virus.try to install the stock rom again to clear the system. in case that the phone is infected and you have root access a virus can hide inside the system and get used over and over again.i will explain to you what i mean and why i suggest you to install the stock rom again even if you aren't rooted.
when you reset the phone actually what you do is to delete the user data included the apps you have install. when you install the rom is like you do a CLEAR format at windows.
See here a guy who made a decoy phone to spy anyone who stole this phone in purpose of course. well you can see the entire video if you want but i suggest you to skip to 2:40 because there he explains that i am telling you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpN9NzO4Mo8 . So please try to install the stock rom again and if the problem is still there, well then i can't think anything else right now... please feedback.
