So I noticed a stutter while playing games, particularly when having to touch the screen. Such as flappy bird. Every time the screen it touched, it stutters/skips.
Doesn't do this anywhere else on the phone. Smooth as butter. Any suggestions?
Yeah, i noticed the same and wondering why not many people complaining. Did you find a solution? As you said, this stuttering is in thr games with touch contols like flappybird or dont touch the spikes, etc.its really annoying. I love these games and i love my new moto x. Would be disappointed to return it for this reason.
Let me know if sonebody knows the reason, and more importantly, how to fix it.
Cheers

No solution. Received a replacement device due to the back separating, same thing. I assume its on the games side at this point.

Hmm. It could be that these games are not "optimized" for moto x but I'm having hard time understanding the reason. And why its just us complaining? I'll try and get the answer or return the phone for some other android phone. Pity!
That's pretty weird, mine doesn't stutter at all. I haven't tried Flappy Birds yet but Swing Copters is fine and so is Don't Touch The Spikes. I also play a lot of graphically intensive games like Nova 3 and MC5 and they are all perfect too. I'll give Flappy Birds a try in a little bit but I expect it to be just fine.

Well i just dl dont touch the spikes. Im not sure how that game played so i dont know if theres the stutter present. Strange...
Have the stutter as well. Hadn't played Flappy Bird since on my 2013 X. Tried it and it seems like the stutter/skip happens only after having not touched the screen for a second or two. If quickly and repeatedly touching the screen, there is no skip... only after a pause long enough for the phone to not be expecting another. Hoping Lollipop's ART runtime by default will fix this and other issues with scrolling smoothness.
No issues here
I just downloaded flappy bird 3d just to test it out. The game runs and plays absolutely as smooth as butter. Not a single skipped frame.

So I got the psx emulator even though the slide probably isn't the best device to be running the app on. Tried a few of my fave games and the larger roms (like GT2) are slightly laggier then the smaller ones (like Spyro 2). This is probably normal due to size.
I know this is the first release so its not a well pollished app but how much better do you folks think its going to get for us slide users? And is this the same experience the rest of you are having?
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
took the app from 4shared.com amd game won't load. buying it tommorow tho, but it shouldnt run horrid thinking it might run smooth actually, not a fan of how you have to get the roms but hey it ps1 on the go right?
Update: Looks like my Bios was the issue, but works fine now. Games are pretty laggy tried overclocking but not sure it worked out to well, need to try something else. only tried spyro playable but not normal game play like you'd want. Wish we had hummingbird in this! *drools over keyboard* If FF7-9 work good enough for me then. but maybe in the future once its more polished it could become better but playing fighter games or very actiony games maybe not "amazing". Price you must pay for owning a mid-range device.
the games are wayyyy too laggy for slide imho. i just stick with the good ol snes emulator.
I think its the emulator that needs some work because I have heard it runs crappy on the Evo too, but for a work in progress you have to admit that its pretty impressive to be able to load a PSX game onto your phone. I have tried a bunch of different ROMs and so far the only one that is playable is Resident Evil Directors Cut.
I just downloaded this, but I'm enjoying it. It's laggy, but I think the fact that it's even possible is amazing.
I've been watching the psx4droid wiki(can't post a link yet) and another forum. Just checking out to see people's experiences with certain games. I think most of the people that are sharing on the wiki have a bit more mhz than us, but it kind of gives me an idea which games will be ok to run.
I've got FF7 right now and it's definitely laggy, but playable. Sound a bit on the staticy side. Downloading Breath of Fire III, Xenogears and Resident Evil 2.
I'm reading the Resident Evils should be better since a lot of the graphics are pre-rendered and mainly the characters and npcs are 3D.
Running stock, btw. Holding out for 2.2 before determine if I'm going to root.
Also, Hello!

Unfortunately RE2 runs too slow but RE Directors Cut runs well enough to play and the sound isnt terrible. So far thats the best I can find, well Tetris Plus runs fine but there are better Tetris games you can play in the market.

Ah crud. Well I'll probably be trying more things to see what is great. I wasn't really too excited about RE2 anyways. I never really had a PSX, so I didn't play a lot of these games. Of course I could just do it on the PC now, but... well, I do enjoy the slide.
About halfway through disk one of Final Fantasy 7. The game runs perfect on Fenix 1.8 OCed to 844mhz. Zero lag. The only issue is the sound but I usually play it in public places anyway so it's not a deal breaker for me. Even bust out the WiiRemote for a controller sometimes at home
Anyone else having this problem with the One? 2d games run fine but every 5-10 seconds they suddenly get choppy for a second and then go back to full frame rate. I noticed this is mostly happening on games that I guess are iOS ports like angry birds and cut the rope. Is it just because they games aren't optimized properly for quad core processors or is there something going on with my One?
I had heard that this was a bit of an issue on some 2D games, but I haven't come across it yet. Been playing loads of Sonic CD and it runs like butter. My guess is that a future update will iron out these few kinks. The rest of the phone doesn't seem to stutter so it's obviously not a hardware/processor issue.
I had this problem with Bad Roads. Contacted the dev and he fixed the issue very quickly.
Yes, it must be the game which is not optimised for One's cpu.

Did any of the users find the phone lag at any point of time? Please help me out with this. I have heard that the phone to lags, is it true? Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

oh god no, mine is fast as lightening, I am still amazed (after having it for more than one month) at how fast it is. Switching between apps is instant, browsing the gallery the same.

I was reluctant to believe that it was laggy. Since it uses the same chipset as the nexus 4 or a better version. How is the heavy games performing? I know there plenty of videos regarding gaming reviews. But I just want a views from a user of xperia zr. Since its a little on the costly side for me and want to make sure it's worth it.
not so laggy . my zr is smooth when running apps . a little bit laggy when play heavy games ,but not so obvious . this is a great phone with a little cost :fingers-crossed:

You mean the Game lags are not much noticeable? I would be installing Asphalt 7, if I get this phone. How would xperia zr stand up to nexus 4 in performance section?
Mine is laggy, not all the time but if you keep screen on for about 10 minutes and launching apps after apps, it gets really laggy especially on Chrome. I even have display issues where black screen are displayed on certain apps for awhile before showing up. Not sure if it's because I have too many sync data and background apps going on but I don't understand how anyone can use a smartphone these days without a minimum of such things going on

That sounds quite bad, mine definitely does not do that. However, I have to say Chrome is laggy on any kind of phone, I would never use it, especially because of that. I use Dolphin these days.
It will drop frames in heavy gaming because of overheat. it works well in gaming as long as you can keep it cool.
there is not lag in daily uses.
even Asphalt 8 can run smoothly on XZR
Well the phone is kinda brand new so.. in this price range its expected to be smooth and fast no doubt about it. The 2 gigs and 1.5 quad boy do the job.Have the phone from more than a month and I can tell you if u have the money go for it. the heating is abit ****ty when you play heavy games more than 30 min but every smatphone heats so..its not a big deal

Other than in the lockscreen, any lag in other area too?
I have been using my zr for about two months. Lag is virtually non existent. I am happy with the performance. Dead trigger plays very well. Only problems are heating during heavy gameplay like deadtrigger or using chrome and those flaps covering headphone jack and usb port. :thumbup:

I think it's just some games that just resource hogging and seems to cause those delay and black screens.
Sony roms are the most laggy roms ever (Specially if you have many background app running!) So expect some lag when connecting to internet
Not laggy. try factory reset.
Hey all,
I recently got my Butterfly S and I'm absolutely loving this phone. I think HTC nails it when it comes to UI design but there is two areas that I'm having some issues. When trying to play 3d games like Real Racing 3, Riptide GP2 and Asphalt 7(For some reason 8 isn't supported on this device) I see quite a bit of slow down. I'm wondering if there is a issue on my end or if anyone else is having similar problems? I know the SD600 and Adreno 320 should be more than capable of running these games smoothly.
My second is when it comes to playing back mkv files. I'm using MK player as my main video playback app and I'm getting a lot of slowdown and freezing. Could any recommend a method to fix this or a different player app that could alleviate this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah I don't really know what's wrong... RR3 doesn't even run in 1080p unless you do the rotation trick I mentioned in the gaming thread. Blitz Brigade also crashes on me.
I believe there are some optimization issues but it's strange cuz FIFA 14 and Fast and Furious 6 seem to run fine.

Me too! I'm currently playing GTA:Vice City on my Butterfly S and it lags a lot! My girlfriend's older Galaxy Note 2 seems to be able to play it quite well. So I'm thinking there is something inside which do not support heavy graphic games well.
None the less, I do love my Butterfly S and never regretted switching to this from my iPhone 4S.
lagging sucks

Mine kinda lags too, i thought only my phone had this problem but i can see many others are having the same problem too. It should be the app itself then. Scrolling, web browsing has no problem. Mine lags in real racing 3, despicable me, n even on camera 360 app. I hope htc fixes all the problem soon.
Does anybody else experience some pretty bad lag in some games on their N6?
I've only tried a couple games, but one of my favorites, "Whale Trail Frenzy" lags something fierce when you get into frenzy mode. I did a google search and saw some people a couple months back having trouble with madden too, and some suggested it might be an issue of the app not being compatible with Lollipop but I tried it on my M8 with lollipop and runs just fine.
Does anyone else still have this issue and if so have you found a fix?

One day I had some lags in GT Racing 2, however, they disappeared presumably with a reboot.

I just wiped the cache and rebooted (as you have to to wipe) and am going to try again now.
[edit] Still have noticeable lag. Reboot, wipe cache didn't help. Can somebody else download Whale Trail Frenzy and play a couple games and see if you experience this slowdown too? All of my other games seem to be working okay. Maybe its just the game clashing with this specific phone.
If you are a big gamer I word seriously recommend getting a phone with a lower resolution ... The high resolution definitely impacts game performance on the G3, note 4, and this phone.

I can feel some framedrops on modern combat 5 but very less on modern combat 4. I'm a heavy gamer, yeah it annoys me a lot. Some games like NOVA 3 makes the phone to shut down forcefully cause of the RAM leaking issue. I'm pretty sure that the bad gaming performance is due to the RAM leaking issue
