I downloaded Dungeon Defenders today, rebooted my phone, loaded the game, and it crashes every time I try to play it for more than 5 minutes or so. The game runs veryyy smooth thanks to our processors and GPU speed, but it simply crashes for no reason at random times. Anyone else have this problem?
I'm having the same problem, and I really want to play this game lol.
Trendyent recognizes the problem and says they are trying to fix it but I don't see a fix soon =(
yup same problem here, i emailed them about it and they said they are trying to get a couple units from HTC to test on. They had me send a logcat of the crash. so hopefully that will help.
I think that game is made only for Tegra 2 phones
I have the same issue with Dungeon Defenders and lots of other apps. At first I thought it was the phone, so exchanged it. 3rd one is doing the samething.
Dang, at least I'm not the only one having problems. I know it isn't Tegra 2 exclusive because the Desire HD, Droid 2, etc. are supported and same with even the OGVO. It's also a problem with our sister phone, the Sensation. I hope they patch this soon because when it was running on my phone it was siiiilky smooth.

Have you heard the horror stories of how gameloft treats its employees?
Obviously a company like that isn't worried about making a game work on more devices. Its about making new games to sell for higher price.
i dont think it's the game's fault. I think its more likely to be an issue with the phone's rom. whilst the phone has 1gb of ram (dundef only needs 256) the new sense 3.0 uses up wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much memory. I mean. With ALL my apps killed (as many as possible) there is still only about 200-300mb of ram free(this is on a custom rom as well). On stock roms i remeber i only got less than 200mb of free ram and htc has made sure the oom lowkiller will not kill any sense stuff(launcher, lockscreen and so forth).
so maybe the oom lowkiller is killing dungeondefenders.
Woww. I forgot about this game.
I just put it on my SGT and have gotten nothing done in my real life.
THANKS EMPIRE!
I'm trying to think but nothing happens.

That's interesting. Is anyone running CM or any AOSP rom that can try to run the game on the Evo 3D?
I'm trying to find a tutorial I came across on here that tells you how to alter the build prop on your phone so that the market (and apps, I assume?) think your phone is a Tegra device. I can't find it, though. You guys think that would make a difference in this case?
As soon as i click the icon to open it i get an fc and im on synergy rom

I was just wondering if anyone else with the Motorola photon was having this problem. When I try playing a game, particularly racing games where you have to hold down a button on the screen, the screen will become unresponsive in the one spot.
You can test this by downloading a racing game and then holding down the gas button, if you car or bike goes the entire game without slowing down or stopping you don't have this problem. However, I experience the car slowing down or coming to a stop from holding down that one area for long periods of time (usually 30 seconds). After about 2 seconds, the screen will become responsive in that area again and the car will speed back up, but then it will become again.
This problem I have noticed will multiple racing games from different developers. Here are two games I notice it the most in: RacingMoto and Top Truck Free.
Anyone noticing this?
If this is a problem with the phone sprint should fix since they market this phone as "great for games".
It's an issue for everyone. I forget the exact reasoning but basically the phone stops responding after holding a certain spot for so long in case it's something in your pocket doing it. Dumb idea to me but nothing we can do about it yet.

That kinda defeats the purpose of a "gaming phone". Good thing I only play games on my phone about an hour a month. If I bought this phone to play games on and it did this I'd be pissed at Sprint for terrible marketing.

I definitely agree! I posted it on Motorola's forums so hopefully someone can pass it to their dev team saying this needs a fix (if they can even fix it with a software update). Otherwise Sprint's support is in for a hay day from me

This issue is frustrating. The phone's gaming capabilities are amazing but I can't play racing games?
I did notice that some games are more sensitive to this problem than others, which has me wondering if there isn't something in the app code that is disabling this ridiculous touch timeout feature.

Thanks Cornelious but the prblem is that the bootloader is locked and is 2.3.5 so i can't unlock it, i also can't acess the files with adb i think is because the screen autolocks by default when the phone starts so adb does not recognize the device.. any sugestions?
Hi all,
Couldn't find a thread about this, sorry if it exists.
My EVO 3D has been experiencing what can best be described as phantom touches. I leave the phone alone with the screen on and it moves the home screens in a jittery fashion or randomly presses the screen. Approx middle, slightly to the left just below the centre of the screen and also closer to the home/menu soft keys. It's not a permanent issue, but it does go absolutely "mental" at times making the phone unusable until it settles down.
It also interferes with the lock screen, playing havoc with the pattern unlock.
Tried all the usual... factory reset etc etc but to no avail.
Has anybody else come across this?

I've had mine do that albeit, rarely. He home screen goes sporadic or the app drawer scrolling is messed up.

Video record it! Then take it to the sprint store and say that you're scared of your phone and get a new one. If it can work for my neighbor, it can work for you! ⊙﹏⊙
Mine does this horribly when my phone is in cold air. My last 3d also had this issue and it was replaced when installing a new digitizer did not help.
It's getting more frequent.
I'm in the UK.. I'd have to be REALLY scared of it to go to Sprint in the US

I took the screen protector (Martin Fields) off and was trouble free for two days. I suspect that was coincidence though as it's now worse than it was prior to that.

Mine doesn't do that but there are times when I unlock it and it automagically goes to what ever app is in the lower right side of the screen. My wifes has started doing it also. Even replacements that I have gotten have done it.
i actually just had mine swapped out for the same reason.
did it on ICS, MIUI, and warm.
I say take a chance at running the newer OTA update combo pack that Xhausx put out. It does include some sorry of touch panel firmware update I believe. It's worth a shot just for the hell of it.

Likewise. After a month of having my Evo 3D, the screen would act possessed. No matter what I flashed or did, nothing would make the slightest difference. It got so bad that I ended up returning it.
OP, return it. It's a common issue with these phones.
SAME PROBLEM! i have flashed viper, synergy, olympus, warm, and more im sure! Same problem every time ! Please let me know if anyone finds a fix without returning the phone! THANK YOU!
It is a hardware problem, changing the ROM isn't going to help.
My d1 did the same thing after a year or so. It actually still works as long as you can keep the phone at a certain temp, but as soon as it warms up from use it goes back to it.
My girlfriends started doing that today
downloaded touchscreen tester from the market and what do you know digitizer is jacked some spots show as multitouch with only one finger
ok that helps. so, do i have to actually return the phone to fix the problem? or can i get a touchscreen tester and find the problem and fix it? or is that not even worth the trouble?
Thanks for the help
Oddly I just started encountering the same issue two days ago and now can barely use this phone.
Bit of an update.
I did S-On and so far haven't had the issue reappear. Obviously since it is an intermittent problem, it's not definitely gone.
I'll give it a day or so and report back.

+1 on this.
Now I know it's not me being crazy. I've always had random apps opening up after preforming an action even though I was sure I never touched that app.
I'm starting to get more and more irritated with this phone. I sent my galaxy nexus back for this one and I am starting to regret it. Every time I browse facebook and swipe up or down sometimes it lags about a split second and then it will scroll. It also does it on web pages. I also play the drag racing game and I experience some lag in that game as well. Has anybody had problems like this?

picky are we? lol
here is the thing brother..... you gotta keep this in mind, when these devices are designed/programmed(but this has mostly to do with the programming aspect) the developers try to find a healthy balance between performance and battery efficiency. every now and then you may see it sputter ever so slightly, but it is intentionally designed that way. your other option is to have your GPU in overdrive every time you even breathe on your screen and suck your battery every time you send a text.
don't be so picky. you have a 400mHz GPU with multi-point rendering capability.... it's not the hardware brother....
Sense 4.0 lags sometimes, it sucks but I don't think we can totally eliminate it. I notice it on different occasions, usually when I wake the phone up or open the app drawer.

you are basing "better" on blips in the user interface? lol come on maannn
and for the record... every nexus i have picked up was laggy as balls.... maybe that has something to do with the fact that it has the same GPU in it as the OG nexus
just sayin
i mean if it is TERRIBLY BAD then i would say it is the rom you are on, some misc tweak, maybe your 2d forced rendering isn't checked under the settings, who knows.... but i have had mine for a week now and have maybe seen it sputter like once. and i use it pretty heavily.
The EVO is better for some coming off different phones with completely different hardware. The evo 4g vs LTE is a no brainer. LTE wins. The nexus on the otherhand has similar specs as the EVO. (Dual core, ics, screen resolution?) Anyways you get the point. Get a phone based on personal preference. Not because its "the next big thing" the nexus is a great phone for some. Definetly not for me. Hence the reason why I got the LTE rather than the ole so stunning S3 or nexus..
hardware is beyond than extraordinary. Root the beast and unleash its full potential (when the proper Roms are fully functional). Or wait out official HTC updates.. my 2 cents

What's not better?
better screen

better camera
and more, but that's it for now.
Maybe you're just having a buyer's remorse cause you didn't go with the GS3 and convincing yourself the Evo is not good enough.
Two top phones right now for sprint is Evo LTE and GS3, everything else falls short.
The only stuttering or lag I get is sometimes on my lockscreen. I am using the weather lockscreen and the weather will stutter it's way in instead of being fluid. I think it is just the phone coming out of sleep.

Lol thanks for all the feedback guys and for not completely criticizing me. I never wanted the S3 to begin with. But I will agree with some things that were said about sense being a little buggy and what not. And I didn't get this phone because it was the next big thing. I got it because my nexus would get really hot when I was using it and the battery life was bad.

I’ve actually noticed this as well and I agree that it’s a little annoying. When scrolling in pretty much any app, my finger will move about 0.2” before the screen reacts. Once it realizes that my finger is on there, there is no problem tracking.
I downloaded Touch Test from the market and confirmed that this is not a hardware issue. In that app, the moment my finger touches the display, it begins tracking. The lock ring also moves immediately on the lock screen, so it must be something in certain apps.
I have noticed lag in the browser when scrolling when I have flash enabled. I noticed on my Galaxy S2 that when I would scroll down a web page with flash content, any flash content that is active continues to to be active while scrolling and it was VERY smooth. On the EVO LTE however, anything active flash content will become inactive. The lag I have experienced seems to be when the Evo takes a split second to "pause" any active flash before it begins scrolling. The more flash on a page, the more lag I experience. I've simply turned off my flash player. It's annoying to have to do that, but I have come to terms with it.

Edit.....tried it, played for 5 mins then my phone locked up and rebooted
Same here, only thing is, it didn't even last for 5 minutes... I even enabled my 2nd core, over clocked it to 1556 and over clocked the gpu and same problem. Like I said, gta iii works like a charm but vice city just locks up. I don't know if I'm downloading the wrong data or the wrong apk, it just doesn't work.

It is compatible with HTC Rezound, same hardware but much higher screen resolution. So it should work better on our phones than Rezound as 3D's screen resolution is less.
I also installed GTA VC on Atrix 2 ICS 4.0.4 stock. It froze on it too while entering a vehicle and returned to homescreen even though it is compatible with Atrix 2. On Jellybean,it worked fine but with stuttering sound.

It isn't compatible with the Evo LTE either, though GTA 3 is and plays perfectly fine. Not a big deal for me, as I bought it for my Asus Infinity (TF700T) and it plays great on it. One of my main reasons for having tablets is for gaming. I'm just surprised that Vice City isn't compatible with more devices since GTA3 is.

Are both GTA 3 and VC compatible with our phone on play store? It says not compatible with mine. Our phones are better than Xperia Play and same as HTC rezound (except screen resolution) then why are they not combatible? I guess HTC rezound plays them fine.
