cm 12.1 - Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys, running cm.12.1 with 501 software but having this problem,
So far on certain games such as subway surf and temple run, it sounds as if the sound has crashed and is stuck. Managed to fix the issue once by clearing the cache but it's happening again on more than one tablet

[JB][EOS] angry birds graphics

I'm running Team Eos JB 142 and the graphics in angry birds space either locks up or the random things happen to the screen graphics and I end up restarting the game. This happened with the earlier night lies but it seems to be getting worse. I've tried the usual wipe dalvik, wipe cache, and format system before flashing, didn't. help any.
Although I don't play it a lot, i've seen glitches a-plenty from time to time and I'm still on stock jellybean....

Wow, Im on EOS 135 JB nightly (stingray) no issues at all with graphics on angry birds or any other games for that matter. I can run NBA Jams without a glitch. You might want to ask the dev or check
the thread to see if anyone else is having the same issue.
I was having the same random graphics artifacts and freezes with angry birds since build 132 or so. I was using the ondemand kernel governor.
Once I switched to interactive, angry birds was smooth and never froze, with no "floating" artifacts. Seriously! I didn't wipe, change builds, restart, nothing. I just changed the governor and everything was fine. It was odd.
Thanks for the tip. I was already at interactive so I tried one step lower. I switched from interactive to conservative and it helped out a lot.

[Q] HTC One stutter/lag in games and sound

Okay so I've had the HTC One for over a month now and everything was running smoothly until the recent update to 1.29.666.17 (It's a canadian version). Im not sure if it's the update or what since I couldn't find anything similar with anybody, but all of a sudden there are stutters/lags everywhere. I was playing subway surfers which ran smoothly before and now there are alot of audio stutters and alot of game stutters almost making it unplayable and this game was running perfectly before. I restarted the device a couple times but no luck stutters are still there. It's literally everywhere in playing games, using the browser, playing music, watching videos etc.
I checked "Force GPU Rendering" and changed all animations to 0.5x to see if that would help sadly nothing worked. This phone was a powerhouse before and now its like a 3 year old phone running jellybean.
Has anyone else experienced this or is it just me? My phones not rooted nothing special done to it and I doubt it's a defective device as it was running perfectly for a month. Any ideas? Any assisstance would be greatly appreciated.

Some games not running smoothly

Hi everyone,
I have my One for three weeks now and I enjoy almost everything about it. Since I don't own a nexus 7 anymore I play my games on my phone and I have installed about 65-70 games. However I really get annoyed by the fact that some games like Real Racing 3 don't run smoothly. I noticed after resetting the phone that it was very smooth, but when I restored my other apps it was the same story again. I don't think this is normal as this device has the best SoC at the moment. Do I really have to uninstall almost all of my apps to be able to enjoy graphical intense games?
I'd really like to know if there is another issue I'm not aware of or if there is a solution to this apart from having almost no apps.
Thanks in advance

Audio issues CM12

Just flashed CM12 posted in the development section on 2 brand new fires that were on 5.0.1 for my kids. No games play audio properly, its just sound of jibberish \ glitchy. What gives, worked fine on fire OS. Thx
I'm getting this too with some games on the rr rom.

cm.12.1 with 501 software

Yes, Subway Surfers is the game with the issue, and Shopkins. A few games works fine. I have been able to make it work by toggling the sound on/off within the game after minimizing the game and reopening from the recent app menu. I disabled the audiofx as well. I read about a similar issue with CM12.1 on another device forum and it mentioned something about forcing 2 cpu cores to stay active? No idea what that's about. I hope someone can help us with it or I may have to go back to stock.
I'm having the same issue with certain games. It also happens on SlimLP 2.3, which is where I first noticed it. I then tried CM only to find the same issue. :/
And yet for me Temple run and subway surfers works fine, I have the issue with pac-man CE and ski safari 2.

Audio loops in "Adventure Capitalist" also
Audio locks up and loops at high (or sometimes super slow) speed on the game Adventure Capitalist also, typically after viewing an advertisement. This happened on my tablet and I thought it was just mine until I heard my daughter's tablet doing it on Subway Surfers. Both tablets are Amazon Fire 7 5th Gen running CM12.1 Unofficial (from FireOS v5.0.1 via TWRP).
So I had this issue myself and found that turning audio fx off solves it on cm 12.1 and RR
If you are still having the sound issue try that
Damn, disregard. Sound went back to heinous
Was there ever a solution for this problem? I'm on CM 12.1 2016-06-14 and still experiencing these issues, e.g. with "Minions Paradise" and some others. Game itself is running fine but sound is broken...

Seems to be an issue with all custom ROMs for this device. Only FireOS is glitch free.

sadly it's sometimes the app itself. Can you uninstall and re download? It might fix it, but might be a waste of time.

Likely not given problem impacts all custom roms for this device (different developers) and has remained unresolved for 6+ months. If audio performance is a priority might consider returning to FireOS and stripping out all the Amazon crud that makes it a dog.
Audio bug was fixed with CM-12.1 version 2016-08-10. This is really great!!
Thx developers!

Lag in games

Almost every game Ive tried have been laggy on P10 with the latest firmware. A simple game like Subway Surfers that have been working good on every other phone is now stuttering on P10. Ive made a factory reset but still have the lag in games. Anyone now what the hell is going on. This phone should perform much better than this.
