Hey guys! I have this really weird issue, each time I try to play Stardunk or Gun Bros, the phone would crash. The LED light starts flashing pink, there's a crying smilie face with the message simply saying the phone has crashed and that is saving a log to the SD card and that the battery should not be removed.
It also says that for more information, to visit https:// wiki.sonyericsson.net/androiki/c/ which brings me to a dead-end on any browser I try.
I've cleared the cache, re-install the apps and tried moving them back and forth between the phone and the SD card (32GB, class 4). It also happened with the original SD card that came with the phone. I also didn't install any apps until updating to 2.3.3 and then rooting 4.0.A.2.330.
So far only those games are giving me that problem but I'm going to check if more apps do the same, any suggestions? Is anyone else going through the same?
Thank you very much for your time!

dont use pirated software?
Well, I didn't know that just rooting the stock firmware and downloading free games from the market would mean I'm using "pirated" software... I just wanted to confirm if the problem was my phone or if other users with this phone are having the same issue... But thanks anyway.
I tried over 60 apps and games over the week and only those two games crash the phone. I'll try un-rooting and see if it helps.
****EDIT****
If more Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro (International, SK17i) users have the same problem, then perhaps we can make a list of apps that don't work on our phones, it would also benefit Mini and Active owners.
Gun Bros didnt make my phone crash just didnt start up. It aint working on our devices.

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
Sent from my E10a using XDA App
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?

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
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 ^_^

Hey,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II with stock rom.
I saw someone else had almost the same problem on another phone and posted it there in that phone's section but didn't get much help.
The device acts as if it has been paused every minute or so.
That means that whatever application I have open does whatever it would do if I would push the "sleep" (is it called that?) button and then opened it again.
For example, while writing a text message the keyboard would hide.
while running a game, the loading screen would come back on and then resume right where I was.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys, I have the same problem. I'm rooted. My phone is Cherry Mobile Flare 3.
I don't know exactly what is the cause of this problem and still unsolved. This happened when I tried to install modded play store but I think I don't like it cause I need Visa card. Then I want to bring back the original playstore with lucky patcher but it doesn't work. First I tried to back up all my apps and games with titanium back free version. And did a Factory data reset. After that I restore all my apps but whenever i tried to play games, music, videos. It always randomly pausing. F*** @-%[email protected]# I'm so tired of finding solutions. Please help me
Same problem after hard reset htc desire 310.... i think i will reset it again, and if problem persist, i Will flash the stock rom ... help, me if i have other solutions
Hello,
It has been a while since I bought my archos 70IT and since the beginning, it kept freezing a lot, I had to kill all the apps every 2 minutes...
So I didn't really use it but now I want to use it again. I have installed Urukdroid because I thought maybe I could solve this problem by lowing the memory level where the device kills the apps... But know, the problem appears even more often than before... I don't know what to do... Sometimes it freezes when I use the menu, or when I'm on Google Play or when I use some apps, I don't think there is a specific trigger, only the memory. It is the 250MB hard drive model.
The screens stops and I can't do anything but reset the device.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.
Please do yourself a favor and read the UrukDroid threads.
It is clearly stated that UD isn't really suited for the hd versions of the tablet, as it is installed on the HD, not the internal sd, wich means everytime the hd powers down the os is stalled, or the hd can't power down.
The only thing you can try is the orginal fw.
Wich Apps did you install?
I installed the market with arctools but the device froze even before it.
I also remember the device freezing when I transefered some media with the USB connection, before I installed UD.
If I shouldn't use UD, what is the best way to be root then? I mean, on a HD device.
Thanks!

Is there always a trafficjam on saturday afternoon around toulouse?
Drove by last saturday and it was bad ( not as bad as lyon though , but...)
Thanks but I think I will stay not rooted and without installing google play and google apps. It's not as good as it could but it seems to work better...
By the way, does anyone know a good calendar app available on appslib? To import calendars by url.
PS: Yeah, the Toulouse traffic is really bad! That's the main drawback of this city I think...
I have no idea what could be causing this. I've never heard of anything like it, and I have yet to find any posts or anything on Google pertaining to it. The problem is simple. I install an app or game. Play or use it. Go do something else for 20 minutes to an hour come back expecting to use said app, and its gone. Its not in the launcher or manage apps, and play store acts as if it wasn't yet installed. I can go to market again to install it but that's just bothersome. I'm on an 8gb nook tab running an emmc install of cm10, looks like its the 2012-9-3 acclaim build according to about tab. Other than that I'm not sure which ROM exactly.
Any thoughts would be awesome.

I only downloaded this ROM about four days ago. That combined with the fact that that was my second post on xda, it wouldn't be far fetched to assume I didn't know there was an updated version. May I ask what your recommendation of most stable cm10 ROM would be?

Is there a "place holder" icon in place of the disappeared app? (home screen and app drawer, either or both) Would appear as a generic android icon.
Also, what apps are disappearing specifically?

When Ext-Sd card auto unmounts (known bug) everything installed on it (because ext-sdcard are default one /sdcard1) is then shown as a green android without their normal icon.
I've been having this issue as well with Business Calendar Pro. It isn't installed to the SDCARD. I haven't had the problem with the latest version of the ROM though.

I can't compare it to stock or CM7, though -- I haven't run either stock or CM7 since April or so. It does seem to suck the battery down much faster than Chris' CM10, though. To deal with that, I've been doing a full power-off (long press and select "Power Off") instead of a soft power-off when I know I won't be using the tablet for a while.

Almost any app. Here's an updated play by play.
Install app. App can be used.
After a while it disappears.
Can reinstall and use again.
Usually disappears again.
If tab is rebooted apps reappear. Icon and all.
If you attempt to open they force close. I don't remember the error message.
This mostly happens on large apps or games.
I'm gonna attempt to update my ROM and see if it still has the same problems.
Updated to the latest cherry picks ROM. I wiped and cleared everything. Same problem. Same symptoms. Any thoughts on causes and possible solutions? Or is this just a bug with the ROM?

I've experienced a similar issue, and it appears to be the result of the SD card getting (forcibly?) unmounted while sleeping. I have no idea how to prevent it other than moving all apps to internal storage if possible. Maybe ensuring that any apps the rely on storing data on the SD card are terminated before sleeping?
FWIW, I've had the same thing happen in the past with the stock BN ROM so it wasn't a huge surprise to me when it happened running CM10.

Okay, so the exact same thing happened that the OP described to me this morning on 27/09. I had moved several apps to the SD card and then when I came back to my Nook about a half-hour later, all those apps showed as Android icons and could not be launched. Rebooting made it possible to launch the apps again and brought back the normal icons.
Update: Perhaps it's coincidence but it seems that whenever I manually disable WiFi before sleeping my Nook (running 27/09 here), then everything is fine. However, if I forget to disable WiFi, then for some reason the SD has a chance to be unmounted while sleeping which requires me to re-install any apps that are installed on the SD card or that depend on the SD card for normal use.
I'm also thinking that maybe it doesn't have anything at all to do with WiFi being enabled, but instead perhaps it's just having apps running that depend on the SD when the unit sleeps (such as XDA premium which I've had to re-install several times over the last couple of days ) .
In all, it seems like a really vague and random issue that occurs and reiterating my previous posts, I've seen the SD card get unmounted using the original ROM so I'm just not sure what the deal is here.
I have a problem,with my tablet. I found that 3 of my favour apps has disappeared from my apps list and tablet . I don,'t uninstalled it. What can I do to recover an install it again. When I go in my Googly Store my apps list The 3 apps that is disappeared is not listed there. The 3 apps thats is disappeared is Mxit beta, Google translate and Opera Mini web browser. Is there anything I can do to find this disappered apps on my MTN Steppa 7" Tablet. Finally When I try to download a app from the webside or google play store it shows dowloading by don,t stop the download arrow flashing on and on even when I swiched off the mobile data it still shows downloading but nothing stops. When Switched on the Mini data the the download app is Queued. What can I do to stopit and removed it.
i hope really that you can help mevwhit this problem.
