Phone cuts out during games?

From what i've read seems like a regualr problem, Just picked the phone myself, But when playing things like Temple Run 2, Candy Crush & Tapped out, the phone just cuts out.
Problem has happened with Stock ROM, and on CM 10.1.
What am I best doing?

Sometimes apps can close on their own if Android is running out of free memory. Check to see how many processes you have running and free up some memory before you start the game by closing running apps . There are so many memory cleaner & app manager apps but the best I have found is a very basic app called fmr memory cleaner and then I use SystemCleanup by inteks which is the best cache cleaner out of so many that I've tried. So if this is the reason your apps are closing this should fix the problem.

I use GO Task Manager to clean up my RAM memory. They have a nice little widget which shows the percentages of RAM in use. Click the button (might have to click it 2 times every once in a while) and you'll see the percentage go down. This might help clear up some RAM for your games.
If this doesn't help, try reinstalling the ROM, preferably with a full whipe (remember to back up your data, just in case).

Hi Simon,
In any case; you can try to clear data if you go to settings-apps-[all-tab]Google play music->Clear Data.
If youre running a custom rom and you have you DPI changed, you might want to try a different dpi. I myself have google play music working on 210 dpi.

Shoulnd matter if you erased the data properly.
If you switch to landscape; does the problem go away or stays as it is, shaking pictures?

Same problem in landscape.
After hard reset SecSetupwizard crashed. No chance to test it.
Last hours i made the update to XXLT4. Terrible day. note freezing, yellow trianlge, boot loops...
Now my note is clean and cover moves smooth. next step is to restore data and apps. i will restore one app after the other. maybe an app caused the problem.
Edit: Can't believe ist. Made some settings and same problem. But this time i remembered a setting i made. i hate animations and deactivated them. atfer activating it, the cover moves smooth. i don't know the english words for the settings. settings - developer - "animator dauerskala" (third point of animations under developer settings).

Ah yea well that explains it. You are forcing gpu rendering?
Yea, that explains symptoms like zfighting; where images both try to be on top of an object. I woulnd mess with that if you arent debugging something...
Anyway, you found your problem.
Goodluck!

Games don't work?

So I've had my moto x rooted for a while and everything worked perfectly fine. Then I got busy and didn't play many games on my phone until I tried to recently and they don't work. I downloaded the smashhit game which looks like fun but it doesn't work. I can see that the app opens but its transparent and I can see my home screen. Pushing the recent apps but shows that the app opened but its not showing. So I redownloaded and same thing. Downloaded another game and same thing. I have my phone rooted with xposed framework installed but the weird thing is that games worked when I first installed it. Another weird issue with my phone is when I try to switch to ART runtime the phone reboots but doesn't go through the phase of adjusting all the apps and stay on delvik. Has anybody else experienced this?

If the games don't work, I doubt its the phone....its the games.
And if you have Xposed, art will not stay on. Its art or Xposed.

PSA: GS5 REALLY doesn't like ART runtime.

One of the first things I did when I got this device was switch it to art before loading all of my apps, settings, etc. I could not believe how slow the phone was opening apps and running in general. Also, even though we have root, titanium backup would just not function. I wasn't able to freeze anything.
As I was about to return the phone and also after searching for a tibu fix I got the notion to switch back to Dalvik.
Problem solved. Tibu works, and the phone runs fast as it should in 2014.
I had read some people attesting to the great performance of art in some threads, so I guess ymmv, but for me switching back to Dalvik really turned things around.
I guess maybe the samsung engineers knew this in advance - maybe that is why the unlocked/tampered icon appears at the boot screen when in art runtime?
Either way. Hopefully this turns some people back on to the device who may have been on the verge of tossing it out a window as I was.

I was in ART mode as well and noticed some small issues with things not running right. I changed back to Dalvik and everything seems to run as it should now.

Same here, imo it actually runs slower than Dalvil, plus I had some issues with Titanium Back up and some other apps. Back to Dalvik. Phones runs great.

I've been running ART for some time with no noticeable issues. I've heard some apps have issues with ART but I haven't seen anything that bothered me. Perhaps your combo of apps did not agree with ART but for me it is fine.

same issues with ART
When I switched,:crying: chrome, my banking apps, Sirius radio and a few others were not happy campers. So I wood always send crash reports.

Take note how long apps take to open. The try switch runtime and compare.
For me the only app that wouldn't work as intended was tibu, but the actual speed of even opening up common apps such as Gmail was discouraging. On dalvik it seems to be almost instantaneous if not instantaneous.

I read this thread thinking I was on art. I then checked my settings to see I was on dalvik, and after changing it feels zippier. Idk I feel art is nicer imo.

I just realized that after trying to switch to art and having the reboot, that ART doesn't stick and automatically switches back to Davlik. Is anyone else having this problem?

I started running some test early on as well

I just realized that when running ART, private mode will no longer work

I when I activate the "art" so the phone overheats to the point it begins to smell of overheated circuit on the screen. It is something that the mobile force to migrate.
Thought that the battery would explode or something.
and many applications fail, unfortunately the android system is not ready for art, no support for art, is very poor,
I returned to dalvik and holy remedy. :highfive:

My phone won't even switch to art.

Same here. ART working fine for me, and it is a noticeable improvement in app startup speed and execution. I think it does come down to the apps you currently are running. I prefer ART over Dalvik and run all my Samsung devices with it. YMMV

I have to agree, my phone has been running art for over a week, and it is faster, everything works fine.
It has to be an app or something that is not optimized.
I do not run xposed or really any of its modules, and remember not every APP is made to run on ART yet. With the entrance of L
this will in the future force app developers to make the apps so they have to to run on art..

I too have had major issues with ART. It creeps along and at times was very unresponsive. I believe several people are right in that there are some apps out there not optimized for ART yet, but will be forced to if they want to survive in Android L.

OP3T - stuttering animations

For the last few days I'm experiencing this therrible stutter whenerver I want to acces quick options or open app drawer. On video with such low bitrate it's not that obvious, but if you watch carefully you will see. I mean this kind of hickup. App drawer does the same somewhere in the middle. I've tried to wipe cache numerous times, then full wipe using built-in recovery, but it's still happening. And other than that the phone is a beast and performs great, it's just annoying to have one of the fastest Android devices out there and being forced to look at those stutters every time I want to use quick settings or app drawer.. Anyone know what may be the case here?

Hi, I had the same issue after the 7.0 & 4.0 update, after a few days of using it. Cleared the cache and factory reset from recovery solved it. Also, I`ve reconfigured my phone from the scratch, without making any backups ( just contacts ) . Hope it helps
