I have been using Xperia TX for over 4 months now. I bought it with the Android 4.0.4. Everything was working perfectly well until I updated it to 4.1.2. After the update, the problems started appearing. I'm facing problems specially while playing games. When I play Temple Run 1 or 2, the games keep on pausing in between so very frequently. I tried repairing the mobile and the games worked well a couple of days and the problems came back. Could anyone help me out? Any suggestions guys???
you mean by pausing like going back to Menu of the game? or a delay like a lag?
Not only that, anyone notice that sometime the phone is lock, but the screen backlight still on and battery drain extremely fast.
Which way did you update?
Ftf, zip or Sony pc companion?

I used PC Companion for updating. By Pausing I mean that as if I had pressed the pause button. At times the game does lag too... And that's right sometimes when I press the power button to lock the screen, the screen does not lock instead the back light remains on which does cause the battery to drain fast...
I won't upgrade to JB until the problem is solve.
yeah experienced it with global, unbranded, russian and my original one. Its been a week now trying to get some time reading the forums for any solution before I will update to jb again, cause jb is a lot faster but not design for gaming .:crying:
SOLVED
first the reason of the games lag that THe CPU DROPS FROM 1512 To 380+ the corespeed i`m talking about here <<<
so i had to root and install SET CPU and made 2 profiles for games like temple run i just set the minnum and maximum frequency and its very smooth now so no problems with games..
just relock the phone and and backlit will go ..
Have you tried playing dead trigger and deadzone? Do you have any trouble?

Can you help me out in rooting the TX running Jelly Bean?
Hey guys. I try to flash back to ICS 7.0.A.3.212 and update with PC Companion again. I don't know why now my battery usage are same as ICS, not drain that fast like last time I just updated to JB. I root with Easyrootingkit and I deleted all the useless apps but not Google Now. I realize that after deleted the Google Now and restart my phone, the battery will drain faster, just leave your Google Now there and is better don't turn it on. And don't try to make any changes from the CPU especially using SetCPU, I realize if I change any setting there, when I close the apps, the CPU frequency will change to lower. I know nothing more else, but just trying to share with those who have the same problem like me last time. This method works for me but I don't know others. Now I can used JB normally without and problem.

i think it's a rom problem,i face it when i'm on that build,but now i change to gueste.. and everything works,try to change kernel.. or rom..
I also had this problem on Parandroid CM10, no sign of life from the phone at all.
However, I reflashed the rom and now it works great.
Ok rom issue then. I will reflash it with a different one and kernel. Any kernel recomendations?

Happened to me on gueste2x v3.8 last night while I was USB tethering...and I was just pushing for a record time running made it to 160 hours and had to pull battery out to get it working again. As mentioned already, it's probably something to do about background data/wifi activity.
Nevertheless, I still recommend gueste2x v3.8 :thumbup: Give it a try

There are answers in forum. Do you even read? Or just post new threads with questions???
I see you are new here. See this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA
P.S. When you allready opened it, let me answer. But you do not deserve it, you are lazy.
Turn OFF Powersaving mode. Swipe down notification and turn it off. It put your CPU to 800MHz instead of 1GHz. If that do not help, look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092627
Because of usless posts like yours, the one with answers are gone on 4th-5th page. And you can't find it!
its has nothing to do with power saving mode...even clearing ram does not help.the lag is noticable only few times but wen it happens one has to turn the device off and reboot.

Sometimes my phone is very smooth, but every now and then it will suddenly act like a single core phone, this is particularly noticeable if I play a game, it will be smooth usually but when this happens it lags like hell, home stutters and multitasking problems are also present. I've tried everything, deleted system/bin/thermald and overheat control apk, lowered the go max speed load of the CPU, increased readahead size, changed to deadline scheduler... The list goes on! I'm on the latest JB firmware and have a locked BL, any roms that don't have these random lag spikes? Or any other fix? I'll even revert to ICS if its more stable, I did this on my LG before

sometimes it is SMOOTH, sometimes it lagges, especially in games
you know, having Performance governor is not a real solution, it will drain battery the worst way possible, we have to know the reason, since i've done whatever you said as well,EVERYTHING, and yes, when i put in performance mode, it's ok..

EGG ZAKT LY!!!
when i was on ICS, the games were amazing, no lag whatsoever to call ISSUE, but unfortunately, the lag was INSIDE OF OS, even the phonebook, dialer, messaging, all of the system apps, started slowly, but the gaming performance was awesome, on the other hand, in JB, the whole UI and OS is just smooth and beautiful, but games are awful
BTW, how do you modify GPU governor? i thought we could only change CPU
Well its settled, I'm moving to ICS to compare. Is there any ICS ROM where I can avoid using flashtool? Anyway about the GPU gov, use trickster mod kernel settings

the difference is quite HUGE, at the very moment of entering the game, it's total new world...
so, in this case, in which your preferred gaming console is your phone, go for ICS, the UI lags a bit, and i repeat, A BIT, but gaming is brilliant, just like it doubles the graphic power, i've tested NFS MW on both platform, ICS EASILY outperforms JB
hope you'll have good time there, in ICS

I'm not so familiar with initial releases, since i've bought TX recently, when JB was out...
you know, the main problem with me is that i'm always a pure-stock fan, i won't change launcher, walkman, gallery and these basic things, but if you do, as you say, it would help the hickup
are locked or unlocked? if you are unlocked, i can provide you with the best STOCK-BASED kernel for ICS, in which the only midification is having CWM onboard, so that you can flash SU easily to have root

Those who have the sudden reboot issue please get a kmsg of your boot process

Wait a 60 seconds then close window and upload, do this as soon as you boot. We need also a last_kmsg of the reboot issue if one is created (sometimes it isn't). For this just copy /proc/last_kmsg and upload after the reboot happens, if it doesn't exist then it wasn't created during your reboot. My friend @laufersteppenwolf is working on a fix for this, he thinks its due to bad sources, he already has my logs but some additional "testimony" might be helpful
The boot log is not required, only the log, recording the crash

Kmsg sometimes gives different stuff, no pipe error, system bin files not existing, and sometimes no error at all.

Which superuser app do you use? After switching from supersu to clockwork su reboots seem to have stopped. But sometimes they don't happen for a while. What I'm gonna do is use the app "root logger" to trace shell activity, maybe something I use is accidentally issuing this command, because it does it like terminal does it.

New from three, only a month in, they gave me a second one, still happens sometimes. The new .142 firmware helped, now it only seems to happen with < 35% battery, so I think it relates to that. You said you had some shutdowns on low battery too right? I think on the previous firmware something really intensive like playing modern combat 4 online caused some sort of power failure, on the new one its only unstable once the battery is low. So its bearable now, once my battery is that low I tend to recharge
Sent from my LT30p using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I am affraid that the battery in T is big fail. It is not normal, to have such big drop in voltage (in li-on battery) on heavy load.
In full load, the voltage drop can be about 300 - 400 mV, which means when you have 3,6V (which could be around 40%) and the battery drops to 3,2V, that the phone shuts down. Android probably doesn't know that, because it isn't stable 3,2V so there is no notification.
Install Cooltool, go to advanced, custom label path, write there "/sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8921-core/pm8921-charger/power_supply/battery/voltage_now" and select labels, custom label.
Watch the voltage when playing.
I already ordered new battery, so I will test it with new.
Btw what is the capacity of your battery? There are two - 1850 and 1780 mAh.
I recently installed Real racing on xperia sp but after playing it for sometime it just crashes without any warning and the device is usually a little bit hotter at that particular moment.. this doesnt happens to any other game btw... I am only .257 and currently rooted through doomlord's rooting kit..
graphics are splendid.. i dont know what seems to be the problem.. would love to get feedback on this problem!
I think it is because of overheat. If you make some pauses between races or during a long race for the device to get colder you'll be able to play more time. Any thing you do to keep the phone from overheating will let the game last longer without crashing

I play Real Racing 3 all day and I have never experiences crashes (except when trying to use FPS Meter while playing).
Try clearing all your RAM before playing (killing tasks, etc etc), that's what I do, or you can install RAM Manager and set to Hard Gaming.

Actually I don't play other heavy games so I don't know. It was also crashing on my device but since I blow some fresh air on the back of my device between each race to get it colder, I haven't had crashes anymore. That's why I thought of overheat. Also I found once an app called "prevent overheat" in the running apps just after I played Real Racing 3. Still it may just be a lack of RAM. Or maybe next winter when it's not as hot as now it'll work better
Edit :
I just remembered I also changed ROM to one with other memory management. Maybe that made the difference.
I am also having same issues. Earlier I thought it is due to overheat as I used to play CSR Racing for few minutes & then play RR3. But for last 2 days it crashes as soon as the 1st race, that too when RR3 is the 1st game I play after picking up my phone.
Thanks for the replies guys.. Sorry for the late reply.. I was searching for the solution on my own.. First of all I installed game booster from play.. It gave me a head start of above 10-15 races.. I thought this might do it.. What game booster does is it only frees more ram and shut down processes on its own.. But after 10-15 races.. It crashed so I came to the conclusion that it was a combined problem of ram and overheating.. There should be a solution for overhearing.. I tried removing the back cover while playing and blowing some air.. Lol.. But it isn't that effective.. It just prolongs the crash..

@sonyxperiaplayer...Dude.. How... I am curious.. Everyone else is having trouble in gaming.. Btw the things you do.. I usually take it to the next level.. I kill tasks.. Freeze tasks through titanium.. In developers option.. Check no background activities.. A dn check on don't keep activities.. After all these things I play this game.. But still crash on the first race..
Btw I will try ram management and come back to you on this..

Uh? I've never had any problems with any game. Maybe NFS:MW closing randomly about 2 times but I played that game a lot
I guess you should try and backup your data (and you internal SD Card), reset your phone and see if that helps.
Maybe 1 app is hogging the CPU and RAM...
Good luck

I am having same problem. Only with RR3. I played dead trigger and real boxing for hours and do not crash. My phone heats above the normal, but no too much, but it heats more than in other games.
I noticed that sometimes it crashes when I get some notification, if it can help in your investigation...
By the way....where you go when you want to clear RAM?. I cannot found it in my XSP

Download Advanced Task Manager from the Play store and use that

Keep playing for a few times, now still din see the problem, maybe need to play in longer period and see
BTW the graphic level and detail improve in the latest firmware, now u almost can see the same level graphic and detail as in iPad 4 and iPhone 5...
It crashes because u have bad intrnet connection..not bcause ram or what...

So after play half of hours and my cars is repairing , it doesn't crash anymore

I have updated my SP to 2.245 build version & now I can play RR3 for about 30 mins before the game crashes. I just restart the game & can now play for another 15-20 mins before 2nd crash. Occasional stuttering is also there.
On older versions like 1.257, it used to crash after 15 mins maximum at first. After that, it used to last for one race maximum before crashing again.
So I can say that 2.245 update has solved the issue to a large extent.
