I have searched the forums and can't find someone with the same problems i am experiencing i hope someone can help me with a solution.
Problem:
If i play it for too long the game starts lagging horribly, i found this to happen a lot when playing trough some of the cut scenes.
And i think this one is only on our phone so....
When i press the menu key, which should take me to the home screen, it should save the game at it's current state, but it just closes it and i have to start from my last saved game or checkpoint.
Also i played the game on Froyobread V21 and now on V22 and had to start over because for some reason my apps weren't backed up and i had to download it again.
If you have any of the problems or know solutions write below.

I tried a lot of fixes but nothing works i tried:
Full wipe
Uninstalling the app
Moving it to SD Card (no change in loading speed)
Changing ROMs (Froyobread only!)
But still no solution.
P.S. And i see that Inotia 3 is one of the most downloaded free apps in the market so can someone with Froyobread confirm that it's working without any problem on the rom.
Me too. Even i used OC, mddi, and make it to lower quality using chainfire3d. but it still very laggy for playing it long.
Maybe it is inotia3's bug, or our phone isn't strong enough.
But i still waiting the next version of this game, hope this can be better.
I used Elelinux v.3 and FroyoBread 23b.
Better phone needed for it
Just get used to the fact that X8 is far not the powerful phone. For this type of games you just need a better phone.
As long as I keep having X8 I'm using it only for working/apps purposes. I'll play games when I buy a new phone, since on X8 they load so long, that there is no pleasure from playing them ...

No, no, no, no, That's not true our phone has run games with way better graphics
and i only get Lag on the cutscenes, so no its not that the phone is not powerful enough.
Mee to, Using floyo 1.0
It's very bad, coz it's a good game :s
Its sad to know that many people has the same problem with this game app, when i get laggy ive tried to activated flight mode on my phone, and its work well with the problem, but u cant used the nline shop, because the flight mode will turn off your internet connection. At least i can played in offline mode without laggy prob, and i can play this game in undervolt condition for longlife battery used.
Ps , iam using samsung galaxy tab 7'

That is usefull information. That means it's not the device that causes the problem, it's the app itself. Thank you for the reply.
my brother sent me a addfree version and the problem was over, at least for me...
1.1.5
Yep addfree version fixes the problem.. at least on gingerdx v004
I have tested Flight mode activated, only one crash, and no lag. Don t have a adfree version...

when i used GingerDX 5, i found no more laggy.
still lagging
i just installed gingerdx on my phone few days ago
but i still got major lag on inotia3 game
can anyone tell me if there any kind of setting in gingerdx
that i should do to reduce lag
so far,i still haven't touch any setting in this new rom
especially on cyanogenmod setting
i worried that i would make it worse then it is now

Well.....
Im sorry to say this but i have given up on Inotia 3 because of the bugs and lag.
Good news is i have found a replacement game with the same controls, so no multi-touch needed and the graphics are better also it doesn't have any lag at all.
The game i am talking about is Destinia it's just a great replacement for Inotia and i know that all of you who like Inotia will like it.
Helo people, I am also user who had same problem with Inotia3, lots of lags and reboots.
I am using gingerdx 018, where to find addfree version ?
For me beter replacment is zenonia 3.
I must say thats great game
stock rom - not rooted , cuz i brick it and need to do everything again..

Make a backup before trying this!
You have to dowload supercharger.sh.txt, after, rename it to superchager.sh and place it to the root of your sdcard.
disable "lock home in memory" in your cyanogenmod settings.
Now open terminal emulator in your x8 and write this:
su
sh sdcard/supercharger.sh
in please select scrolling speed, enter 0
in please enter option, enter 1
is home is locked in memory, enter no
and now, you have some settings (2 to 6) just enter a number, I use the aggressive 2 settings (option 3), but some people like the balanced settings 1.
after choosing your option reboot (option 16) and enjoy...
For me it's work great, and sorry for my bad english

Hi all,
I have a mini pro (rooted + xrecovery + apps2sd) and got a problem the last few weeks.
While playing some games the phone after a while freezes for about 10 sec. and then reboots.
At first I thought it might be a problem with the stock 2gb sd card that came with the phone in combination with link2sd that I was using at that time so I decided to buy a new Toshiba 4gb class 4 sd card and use the xrecovery + apps2sd script.
The whole procedure went fine but the problem is still there.
To be more specific I am having this problem as I've noticed in some specific games
- "Drop" is freezing every time after two - three games
- "Abduction 2" will freeze less frequently, so I might be able to play for a long period without any freeze or maybe not.
But I have encountered random freezes in other games too even while I am in the main menu not even playing but this happens really rare.
So is it a sd card problem or something with apps2sd?
Maybe firmware? I am at the latest one (.06) and have to admit that previous versions were much better (less lag etc.)
In other words has anyone encountered the same issue?
Yeah, I have the same problem but it rarely happens. I'm in the latest firmware too, .6

i've had a similar problem while playing air traffic control, sometimes it freezes and closes app after game start and sometimes it freezes after a few minutes of gameplay.
also, when playing hex defense, the games freezes and closes when using the most right cannon (the one that costs $50 in the game and launches energy waves around it), if I don't use this weapon, the game goes on and on normally.
btw, my phone does not reebot after the game crashes, it goes back to "desktop" screen.
So we are three people already with about the same issue...
Anyone with a possible solution?
Same thing happens to me !
but mine isn't rooted so it could be something from stupid SE
the same thing happens on my mini pro
for example, jewels,fruit ninja,4 teh birds and etc.
can jit in 2.2 solve this problem?
my mini pro: rooted, cpuset, link2sd

I was almost sure that it was something wrong with the latest firmware (.06) as I thought that everyone posted here had it installed but now you really confused me...
I never had any problems with my first 2.1 firmware (.504) with any games but when I installed the latest, I did the whole app2sd thing too and maybe that is the problem.
Probably some games have issues when running from the sd card...
On the other hand "Nayef.Muhiar" said he has the same problem but he is no rooted so no app2sd for him then... So what then???
I am pretty sure it's the defect of the firmware (.06) fr SE.
Phone restarts automatically while playing AngryBird, even I started the game and just put aside. Already flash 3 times still having the same prob. Non-rooted & rooted still the same. Anyway to make a complain?

this problem happened since the upgrade of 2.1
when i was using 1.6, the games (jewels, fruit ninja...)worked perfectly
ps: it should not be the problem of app2sd
i tried to install the game in phone memory but it's just the same
The same problem here on a mini with .504 firmware, it happens when i'm playing game dev story, it freezes but what i do is to lock the phone and then unlock it and the game runs normal again.
My phone: rooted, link2sd, setcpu on demand
Thanks for the posts guys you are really helpful with your info.
Till now seems a problem that:
-Happens in all firmwares
-rooted or not
-app2sd/link2sd or not
-in different games to almost everyone...
For example I don't have any issues with Angry birds like "rickyccp" has etc...
Had freezes with prism3d ans mystique : ch2
Unrooted phone, un flashed phone, .6 update.
Using the default launcher.
Never had this problem with 3d games

Yes it happens randomly, now i don't have any problem with the games, this problem is in minicm too?
i dont know
Update:
So I did some testing and reflashed .06 firmware and just rooted + app2sd but the freezes and reboot still happening.
Afterwards I reflashed again and just rooted without app2sd (games in internal) but still the same...
So I am pretty much sure now that .06 fw is the guilty here.
As I've mentioned in .504 a problem like that never occured.
BTW is there a way to switch back to .504?
Latest update:
Problem still there with floyo.
Can someone please tell me if there is a way to go back to .504 older SE firmware?

Hi there, users!
As everyone knows, GTA3 mobile came to Android market yesterday and I immediatly decided to buy it on my phone. And as a rule, I made a quick gameplay demo on my Neo to show it,how it runs and what features it has.
ENjoy=)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQAunxsRWm0
Thanks for the video. works fine on my Neo too
i get black screen, after waiting couple hours of downloading....
Try uninstall and download again. I got a black screen on my transformer first time I tried and had to reinstall to get it to work. Of course it didn't take me 2 hours! Even here on crappy NZ internet it took all of 4 mins to download.
Not sure why but I've read a few reports of people having to redownload the data for it to work. Must be that maybe their downloader isn't great and files are easily corrupted in transit.
Worked first time for me on my Neo though. Frame rates pretty iffy compared to the Tegra 2 which unfortunately is pretty choppy at time itself. I definitely couldn't play it on my phone
it's working on my phone , and the frame rates are great !
i'm overclocked to 1.5 GHZ though , but it's working nicely !
Having the neo, but not even with a single tweak... and playing this, the game is playable, but sometimes it just lags ! Dx... but overall playable,
at 1st, the game had no sounds, but i added them manually, be4 sounds, the game was smoother !..
What can i do?!, nothing, but rooting then overclocking !?
It works fine, but sometimes the game just crashes, probably due to a lack of resources on the phone.
Please Upload sd data and send me a link! I Dont Have WiFi.
Works fine on my Neo
Overclocked to 1.4Ghz for perfectness
The gsme can also be played if you are underclocked to 800Mhz
Not much lag
wow...nice video...

Well, mine crashes too sometimes, overclocked to 1,4 GHz. But will the logo stay in the statusbar, like "click to resume game". It's pretty annoying, but at least you can go on where you was.

3.The download request shows up and you just have to hit the "back button" once.
4.then hit the "home button" one time and then press back button.
5.game will now start

Looks great so far. The Home launcher is much more responsive so I can do away with ADW EX for now.
Kind of wish there were more small apps, but browser, calculator and IR remote are great choices for those and they work terrifically.
What do you guys think so far?

Uninstall from settings and go in as market... That fixed it for me...
The tablet was initially very laggy after the update but a reboot seemed to fix things, with the exception of the notification menu. It stutters very noticeably and is extremely annoying. Many apps also don't rotate properly anymore.
Still better than Honeycomb despiute those drawbacks.

DAMN YOU SONY!!!
Things i hate:
- this annoying wifi keepalive issue is still there!!! there is no way to keep wifi active during standby -.- damned why don't they let us users the choice... there IS an option to set the standby behavior but its still completely useless....
- sometimes there are widget issues (doesn't matter if 3rd party or preinstalled) that widgets change into editor mode when just pressing a button like update... changing screen ang going back will fix this temporarily... had this 2 times now...
- auto brigtness issue still not resolved... in low light the screen is MUCH too dark and when changing from full brightess to automatic it keeps full for a while and then goes down to min
- homescreen lag is still too much in portrait
- forced portrait is still not changable (damn i'm righthanded and want to hold it on the ROUND side when portrait is forced!!!!)
- the new ICS launcher... Sonys previous own launcher had a better overview with the sorting possibilities but ok we can have folders now...
- still no thumb keyboard -.-
things i like:
- media from SD card is now directly available and nut just for transfer... finally i have enough memory also without root and mounting stuff ^^
- the new mini-apps are nice but there is still much potential for more apps
- the new version of "Favorites" App is very nice animated and faster
- ICS possibility to deactivate system apps that are not removable... finally i get this google music player away
- a few other ICS related things...
ALL IN ALL this update is a big disappointement... they updated to ICS, integrated one or thwo new features and that's it??? all the big issues are still there since more than six months!!!!!
I have personally had a fantastic experience with the ICS update. Everything seems faster across the board. Menus more responsive, faster browser, better keyboard response/feedback. I also like the ICS look and feel and the mini apps. Really happy with the update so far.
I used to be able to DL directly to my SD Card, and using ES File Manager to move files around. Now it refuses to do so. Anyone else having this issue? If not, what file manager are you using?
My tablet seems to have gone really slow after the ICS update.
I tried a factory restore to ensure that I didnt have too many things installed and decided to start afresh. Didnt help. The tablet is still very slow. While the touch is responsive and I like the features of ICS like slide to dismiss, reading files directly from SD card etc, I definitely donot like the amount of lag I am noticing.
All my apps seem to be really really slow.
My Honeycomb seemed to be far more faster irrespective of all the issues that it had.
Any suggestions anyone?? I am on non rooted US version 16Gb Wifi.

I'm thinking of buying the sony tablet s. I've read on various reviews that this tablet's battery life is not that impressive (Honeycomb0, is that true? And btw how is the battery life after the ics update? Is there any improvement?
someone can connect tablet with PC on MTP usb
i tried many times but i couldn't
ics update
i havent played around much since the update but the little time i did spend with my tab i found it more responsive and smoother.... i am liking the ics update... dont know why others having issues but i think we should give it a couple of days so that all issues are ironed out....

On the first time, it took a while to show up as windows tried to reinstall the drivers for the tablet. Maybe you should keep it connected on USB and wait for a while and see if it shows up?

The problem with that app from the market is that it keeps the device awake when you turn off the screen, and it eats through the battery.
On the Android phones I've used (Legend, Desire, Arc S), the WiFi remained connected, but the phone also went to sleep, battery drain was minimal.
This is the behaviour we were expecting to see in the ICS update, but unfortunately it hasn't been fixed...
Hey, i have a 3g tablet, because that i have to wait for upgrading.
But i have an important question for hifi guys: What is with the IR-Remote app...

pls check it and give a response to me
Hi u all !
I am one of those that couldn't play any game more than 2 minutes without a crash...
As a last try after months... and before considering a hard reset... I tried something that seems to resolve all my crash problems !
What I did:
- Remove ASUS Task manager widget from launcher
- Remove my normal IMAP mail account
- Remove my work exchange account (Calendar, contacts....)
- Removed Battery Monitor Widget
- Removed System Tuner Pro
- 2 pages totally empty in launcher (the rest with many widgets)
Result (after a reboot):
No crashes at all ! and IU seems way faster (good improvement but not enough for a quad core in my opinion... the IU should fly.... even in economic mode...)
I don't know what of those 3 things did the trick (maybe a mix of them)... anyway no more crashes for me...
Would be nice if more people with crashes (and using any of those things) could try this... Maybe this is the bug so many people have been looking for !
Anyway.... after so many months.... and no way to just be able to use my tablet as it should.... come on ASUS....
Please feedback !
See U !
good observation. ill try one by one. ill start with task manager widget first. don't want to remove my email accounts or my system tuner pro. I have system tuner pro set up to eliminate alot of apps from starting up on boot.
Perfect... Let us know what u find.
I have to say that for my is a complete success !! I am trying one by one all my games (I am even not closing them... just pressing home button) all are working.... no reboot needed.... no crash at all (for now).
I am really happy !
Since I have been playing with the settings in the developer section right from the start and I never experienced any crashes I can not give you any feedback on your finding.
But while using my HTC Tegraphone I discovered what is described in that thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599214.
Maybe you check it out and find something that helps you, otherwise I hope you get your crashy Asus resolved soon and someone else can give you additional information.
Good luck
For me, the only crashes i got was due to playing some games while on powersaving mode. The autocontrast or autobrightness (not sure which) that tegra3 forces while on powersaving mode conflicts with a few games.
The screen starts flashing (and the game freezes), and even if you quit the game and re-start, it'll simply crash (force close). You need a reboot.

1. I'm running mostly stock since I bought the device. Yes, not even rooted. Not using any widget either.... And only using 1 page out of 5. Simply using GMAIL app as well with none being sync. Oh, and I manually update all of my apps from Play Store as well...
Since launch, I have installed exactly... 14 apps. Out of those 14, only 3 were added since .21 f/w update (they happen to be games... Dark Meadow, Sonic, Mass Effect). Out of those 14 apps, only 10 are still installed in my tablet (had to delete Google Chrome to increase browser performance).
I rarely play game on my tablet but this is an issue I recently found out as I wanted to play Sonic. Anyways, with this intro out of the way....
Based on my history, when it comes to gaming issue.... I mostly have problems on Tegra 3 optimized games. Games such as Shadowgun, Sonic, Riptide, Dark Meadow........ I actually haven't had any crash/reboot issue while playing Mass Effect.. yet. However, this is only "one" non-tegra 3 graphic intensive non-tegra 3 optimized games. So, it isn't enough of a "data" for me to say.... "hmm, maybe it is just tegra 3 games" yet.
Would be nice if people with no crashes at all could show us this kind of use feedback:
- Using ASUS Task manager widget in launcher --> YES / NO
- Using normal IMAP mail account --> YES / NO
- Using exchange account (Calendar, contacts....) --> YES / NO
- Using Battery Monitor Widget --> YES / NO
- Using System Tuner Pro --> YES / NO
- 2 pages totally empty in launcher (the rest with many widgets) --> How many pages are full for u ?? all ??...
People with crashes could also report the same... and of course please try to do the same and let us know if It fix crashes !
TY for all the feedback !

1. I'm running mostly stock since I bought the device. Yes, not even rooted. Not using any widget either.... And only using 1 page out of 5. Simply using GMAIL app as well with none being sync. Oh, and I manually update all of my apps from Play Store as well...
Since launch, I have installed exactly... 14 apps. Out of those 14, only 3 were added since .21 f/w update (they happen to be games... Dark Meadow, Sonic, Mass Effect). Out of those 14 apps, only 10 are still installed in my tablet (had to delete Google Chrome to increase browser performance).
I rarely play game on my tablet but this is an issue I recently found out as I wanted to play Sonic. Anyways, with this intro out of the way....

TY for the info !
This "solution" is to fix a little different problem. Is for people like me with crashes in ALL games randomly. ALL !
Of course we could find some games with real problems with prime. At this moment I have no crashes in any game ! Raptide, Sonic, Mass Effect, Dead Space, Dark Meadow, Gof 2, Shadowgun THD......
TY again !
The bottom line is a rewrite is in order to free up the bottlenecks in the T3. Something its very wrong when benches are awesome and real life performance is just so so.

Task killers could easily cause a system crash...
I don't have crashes, but do see Widgets take a long time to refresh occasionally.

the bottom line is not a blanket fix but rather a "if you have this, then do (or do not do) this." Sorry if you do not agree but my prime works great and yours "just so so" points to you using a software combination that proves unworkable.

as on every android rom i have ever run i agree widgets are the devil.
Mine is like that already, and I still get crashes with many apps and games.
Pretty much anything that uses a bit more memory and graphics.
Update: Even Market is crashing now... rebooted last night, did not use tablet at all till checking Market just now.
Sorry if this doesn't help for my is working incredible good !
Maybe the reason is a combination of SW... (for me was something of those things).
Anyway It is sad that after a lot of months ROMs are not stable enough... even stock one...
UI is also slow... at least slow considering we are speaking about a high end tablet.
Anyway I am happy... now and after various months... I can use my tablet !

Sounds like it's definitely a software issue, try going into settings/apps and clearing market data.
A lot of these sound like typical Android problems that any Android device sees along its lifespan.
OP, this thread was a great idea. I haven't had any crashes but I'm not a big gamer. I would be glad to use your example thread and do trial and error to see what useful data I can contribute to your thread.
Is this only for stock roms, or are custom roms allowed?
well removing the task manager didn't resolve games crashes. I went back to .21(I was previously on new firmware test build) to test this theory out. I'm not going to remove my email accounts. I really love the Asus battery widget but, I will remove it to try out also.
Removing task manager did seem to make things more stable aside from games though. I don't get that stupid message anymore saying task manager has stopped. plus I'm not busy killing stuff on the task manager that pops up. Actually ICS handles the memory manage very well. seems like I have more memory left vs. before when I had task manager up. ill just let android handle the tasks, which it seems to do a great job of.
ill remove battery widget now and see if that helps the gaming issue.
I WILL NOT REMOVE SYSTEM TUNER PRO THOUGH. lol. that app is too valuable and useful. I know that's not the reason. games crashed before I even got it.
All those widgets....
Sorry to disappoint, and please don't flame me but....
I'm running all those widgets with emails and doing heavy gaming and I have no crashes at all. I'm only reporting this cuz you asked someone who has no crashing to post their findings.
I run several Tegra 3 games and have actually never had a crash in 2 months I've had it, other than the obvious "Asus Task Manager quit unexpectidly..."
I've also hopped roms quite a bit. Ran Virtuous a lot simply for the full functionality during school. Then for the last two months, CM9 and AOKP are fully optimized for the most part and I've been back and forth.
And why you say no stable ROMS???? Completely incorrect. I can think of at least five.....
I have no idea of the hell you people are talking about,
First of all I on stock and not rooted, second I run all that stock crap(widgets, managers) + I have over 150 apps installed acording to the play store and I never had a crash unless it was the apps foult. From time to time when I check the memory usage with system panel it gets quite full, but I always seem to have atleast 100-200mb free ram left.I somehow don't play games much, but for example GTA runs like a charm for me. The only way I can make something crash is when I start switching apps like crazy(GTA,Skype,Chrome,Skype,Gta,Teamviewer ect.)
But talking off topic, is there anyway to say repair the glass? I have a nasty scrach on it that I just cant get my eyes off when the screen is off

My prime is not unlocked... I am speaking about ASUS ROMS.
I know there are many people with no problems but at the same time there are many people with problems... Now I am happy because for any reason my ROM is stable... But.... What a nightmare till this moment.... I was getting crashes with ICS all of the time since the first day (prime release in Spain)...
I don't use GPS, Wifi cannot be improved...so I just don't think about it... And I have no browser problems since I use dolphin (the best !) So... The only thing I miss now is a fluid launcher....I am just using 3 pages for widgets, and ui is so slow (more knowing this is a quad core...)... My Sensation moves ui far better... And a are speaking about a sense launcher !
TY all four the info.

Did you do a full wipe (not just factory reset)? Are you overclocked or undervolted?
Also what ROM are you on, some older ones don't have the best drivers...

Latest nightly cm9
Update it did full wipe and formate system. Put it on and install rohan tweaks and dpi 132.
And works for now... but browser still same went on a site and ping gone browser... re open it. No restore tabs or some thing.... it not cool on some sites hw does that....
The only way I managed to get decent video performance was buying Chainfire 3D and enabling the EGL drivers (yu need the purchase version for EGL.)
Aren't the Rohan tweaks outdated for use with the most current CM9 Nighlies?
and maybe i wil buy other tablet
If the nexus 7 comes for 100euro i buy one.... because like i saw in other thread. The touchpad isnt smooth..... not for me atleast. Webos was good but yeah im a gamer so webos got bored with 20games....
But yeah. I would only buy the nexus if it goes for100 euro. 200 to much for me and to much for something without hdmi or sd or even 32gb and 7" screen.
But yeah... and the touchpad is heavy after somw time in your hands... 700gr is a lot... to hold hole day..

Mine is pretty smooth without any tweaks. Are you restoring these games or installing them clean from the Play Store?

Loooks like after some time the tablet forgets the 3d drivers or something...
Sorry for bad explaination not so good in english...

I would try doing it clean once and install one of these games clean from the Store, and see if it still lags. At least that will help diagnose your problem. I've played several shooters without major lags on mine.

Mine is running god awful as well. I have no idea why. I'm running apex launcher currently, but none of the launchers are smooth. They chug badly scrolling from screen to screen. Any advice anyone?

Try backing up and doing a clean flash. See if it's still slow. If it is, it's probably some app in the background or some app misbehaving.

It can be that.
I just did a fresh install from OaTs LnT to the latest nightly and I do notice the lag when swiping on the home screen (using Apex). Everything else works fine though, so far. However now that I think about it I reinstalled Apex plus data through Titanium BU, gonna try a fresh install to see.

Apex Launcher version 1.3.0 and newer lags on the touchpad. I reverted to an older version (1.2.5), things are silky smooth.
