So, every game plays great on my Photon, with the exception of Fruit Ninja THD. For some reason, it lags horribly, even with minimal apps running in the background. Anybody else?
It's odd, because really this is the ONLY place where I see any performance issues with the phone.
other than occasional lag, it plays fine
Well, right, precisely: the game lags (for me, more than occasionally). And strangely enough it's the only game that does. I play it on my Asus Transformer and there's zero lag.
Just noting it because it's a bit strange that this one Tegra 2 game would lag this badly. Oh well, not a biggie.
Try the non hd version?

I think it's the in-built ads that cause this lag. Sometimes the game becomes unresponsive and I have to wait a few seconds before the ad shows up and I can back out of it.
Interesting thing i did when my heapsize is above 42 it does not lag at all, i used 64 abd 80 had no issues now back at 42all i get the occastinal lag and it runs slower
Hi,
so I got a dell streak yesterday and I love alot of things about it, but there are some things that are just really getting on my nerves...it is with rogers wireless and on a three year contract...so as soon as I got it, I did the over the air update push from android 1.6 to 2.2.1 and its alot faster abv and all that...but Ive noticed some odd things here they are:
1. Touchscreen seems over sensitive and almost jittery and sometimes it clicks the wrong thing, and yes I did calibrate the touchscreen several times through the bootloader...im a little more used to it now, but its still unacceptable..
2. The most annoying issue is around 50% of the time when I turn the device on it will not recognize the MicroSD as being plugged in and so I turn it off and simply reboot without taking ondd the cover or anything...and it works...so how just that make sense eh?
3. Im surprised that the graphics performance seems pretty bad actually...I know this device is running the Adreno 200 Graphics Chip unlike the 205 on some other smartphones..and it run the decent snapdragon processor, its odd I noticed it lagging on fruit ninja even...which is silly since its not even fully 3d
4. I had this issue with playing videos which seems to be gone for now...where if I played a video through any player (youtube, cnn, media players...etc)
it would stop on the first frame and keep playing the audio and if I forced it to fastforward it would get one more frame and the weirdest part was that it was playing with the color all messed up not negative more like the hue was different...it made peoples heads blue and stuff and it seemed to only apply to 60% of the frame...its working normally now...any ideas on these issues?
thx in advance!
Im Running:
Dell Streak 5 with Android 2.2.1 (rooted)
I purchased a Droid RAZR on the day it was released and it has been running just fine. As of right now I am satisfied but I ran into something that worried me slightly.
Earlier today I had my phone in the Kickstand case/belt clip and hadn't used it for about an hour. When I took the phone out of the belt clip it was scolding hot. Battery, screen, all of it. I regretfully didn't have something to monitor the temperature to check what it had gotten to, but it was nearing pain just to hold.
Has anyone else been running into overheating problems with their RAZR of this magnitude or does anyone know any cause/solutions? Any input would be appreciated.
Sounds like you had 4g turned on and a lot of activity going on
also sounds like it got hot, i did not "overheat".
My razr gets warm in the case too... Does your case have a magnetic closer thing? Mine does and I am wondering if that is playing a part as I know old motorola droids (Droid 1 ) would not play nice with magnetic cases.
Mine has never been got hot. Not even warm...
But I've heard that many of you are experiencing problems like this so, maybe, it's my device the exception.
P.S.: Always running in HSPA+ with data connected. It got a little warm after 30 minutes of playing on WebTop (on my ATRIX LapDock)
I noticed this today. Went without my otterbox on an after 10 min of listening to pandora the thing was almost to hot to touch. Going to exchange this.

No it does not.
And there were not a lot of activities going on. Up until that point I had made a phone call. That was it. And I checked to see what was active and there wasnt aanything that shouldn't have been.

Mine is XT910 and it is kinda cold even after surfing HSPDA+ for 15mins. The 4G LTE radio in the XT912 aka Droid Razr should be the cause of this issue. I believe they'll roll maintenance updates soon enough to fix this kind of baseband issues.
My device too has been getting hot. I have the Droid Razr. It will overheat with no case, weather i am streaming in 4g or not. constantly losing 4g connection. also once it is over heating it will begin to powercycle. I have also noticed now due to the over heating the kevlar backing now has a huge air bubble underneath it where it has come detached. you can run your finger across hte bottom and just hear the popping sound of it moving around.
Check in Display Settings if In-Pocket detection is ticked. You never know. It is an active process if ticked.
For the past couple days I've noticed when I am in bed I've been using my fiance's EVO 3D charger and it's been heating up the screen pretty good, hot enough to really feel it on your palm of hand, not warm, i'm talking hot. I unplug it, shut it down and within minutes it's cool again.
is this an LTE phone?
I noticed the phone get hot (noticeably hotter than expected) the first day of use when I was hammering LTE and opening/closing things. I didn't use LTE a lot after that. I used the (google) navigator app in the car for a good 11 hours straight and it barely got warm but using 3g.
Since then, I've installed the leaked update which contains a new radio and updates the os to 2.3.6. I've been running 4G and It hasn't been anywhere close to hot. It might get SLIGHTLY warm while downloading/watching some youtube vids but it seems much improved.
No such issues with mine. Scolding hot? You sure you are not exaggerating a little?

Man, Razr has a high voltage battery..... dont ever try to charge it with another phone's charger,,,,
you can charge via laptop.....
My GSM RAZR does get hot, but after about 20 mins of browsing the net + chatting + fb all using 3g....get worried at times...but it goes off. just hoping for my back cover not to bulge, like some has.

Just how 'high' do you think the voltage is on the battery? I have used various chargers and they all work fine.
I had to echange my Razr after 2 weeks because the camera kept freezing but 4-5 times I would feel my pocket get hot. It was very hot and would partially drain the battery quick. Only have 3G in my area. I would reboot it and it would cool down.The new Razr has always stayed cool.
I've had similar problems in the past with my phone randomly becoming extremely hot and the battery dying within a few hours. I eventually downloaded an app called Android System Info on the market. It will tell you exactly what processes are running and how much of the CPU they are using. I found out that a process named android.process.media was starting and hogging 70% or more of my CPU at random intervals. After some research I figured out this was possibly caused by my phone attempting to sync with the media on my micro SD card and failing, but continuously retrying.

Disregard that message as it is ridiculous.
If the Razr couldn't be used with a standard micro-usb charger then they would have put a proprietary charger port on it. And secondly, even the cheapest plug-in charger has far more juice than what a laptop USB port provides.
When I first received my RAZR, it too became very, very hot at times. Uncomfortably hot. To the point where I feared for internal components. On the plus side, some of those 'black blotches' under the screen seemed to disappear.
As above, narrowed it down to the media scanner. Solution was initially to use the phone without an SD card, but that was hardly a long term fix. In the end, I rooted, froze the terrible Blur music app, hid as many folders as possible with .nomedia files, and used the feature of PowerAMP that disables the system media scanner for its database.
Have not had the same problem on 2.3.6 firmware, thankfully.

I have used HDMI about a dozen times and seven times after 15 minutes or more, the external display goes blank, the Razr freezes and then reboots. The only reboots I have gotten is when using HDMI. Has not mattered if just web browsing, games or playing vieo- same result. The Razr does not seem to heat up enough for heat to be the reason for the issue.
Anybody else having the issue? I will return this unit for another one.
Does it happen when you are on mirror display mode or on webtop mode? Or both?
I am asking because my Bionic does that same freeze/reboot thing but only when Im mirror(ing?). Its never happened while using the webtop. See if yours does the same thing.
My pops just got a Razr and Im gonna supe it up for him tonight, ill see if he has the same hdmi problem too. Ill follow up manana.

I have only used mirror mode (no Webtop).
I have used Netflix and played a couple of games connected to my TV...no reboots.
I was on Wifi. Someone else mentioned this happening, they were on 4G tho. Since I'm in a bad reception area and my apt is a virtual dead zone...I cant really test it on 4G.
So I'm trying out some games to test out this nice new GPU we've got. Nova 3 starts out running great, but over multiple tests I noticed that once the tablet heats up, the game will continue run smoothly but not register inputs for sometimes a few seconds at a time. Any similar experiences? Not sure if it's the app or the tablet. Stock rooted.
Bump
My N9 gets REALLY hot when playing games. Upwards of 180 with Dead Trigger 2 and I've never had it freeze on me. I'll test Nova 3 when I get home and let you know what happens.

I'm not a gamer and yet freezes on me multiple times. I'm going to try reflashing the system image and see if that helps any.

I notice it sometimes playing Sky Force for an extended period of time. It's not so much the touch that's freezing but the whole game. It starts to lag and then freeze up for seconds at a time before resuming smoothly only to lag and freeze again at another time within the same game session.
It plays smooth as butter for at least the first 15 mins or so of gameplay, so im guessing this might have something to do with cpu throttling or whatever is controlling it.
