App/game resolution issues here. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Can we make a list of all games/apps we notice stretching or other issues due to the screen size/resolution issues here for review please?

sounds like a good plan

doodle jump is really bad
lane splitter noticeable but not too bad

Yeah I have problems with age of zombies and also on fruit ninjas it seems pixelated but age of zombies force closes all the time so halfbrick is messing up and spirit hd freezes as well but looks good

I'll give age of zombies a go and see what I get (probably the same thing)

[Q]Fruit ninja graphics Low quality?
Tried fruit ninja and fruit ninja free on my sgsII. all graphics (even the load screen) are very blocky/low-res. The game looked better on my nexus one. Angry birds and other games look great on the sgsII.
Anyone have a fix?

I tried Fruit Ninja Free on my sgsII. I noticed it was blocky at first but once the game started going, it was okay. Resolution seemed okay. When I would go back to the launch screen though, it would often crash.
If you have a solution, I'd like to hear it too.

By graphics I assume you mean everything including playing the game right?
Just downloaded it on my phone, main screen looked fine, not stretched at all. Started a new game and it took a second to start recognizing my swipes, but after that it worked great. Game looks and plays great. The only thing i've done that could possibly make a difference is download spare parts and turn off compatibility mode.
Edit
Looks great, but just froze up when I started it again...
Edit
Looks like it is now unplayable... Freezes every time I try to play it.

If you need your fruit slicing fix and fruit ninja isn't working for you, try Fruit Slice.. Free from the market

Emulators randomly crashing

Anybody else having a problem where Gameboid and GBCoid keep randomly going back to the select rom screen? The apps aren't force closing either and when it does happen it says in the notification bar "Gameboid is running" as if I just pressed the home button or something. Other emulators such as N64oid or SNESoid don't do this either. Idk its just really annoying because the emulation itself is fantastic. If it helps I'm running Starburst rom v1.3 and the kernel it comes with but I don't think that matters because it was happening before I was rooted. Anyways thanks in advance for any fixes and sorry for the long post.

Happens to me. It's definitely something with the device. Ever since I started running midNIGHT rom v2 I haven't had a crash. Although I only tried it about 10 minutes
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Same with me. I'm on starburst rom and I can even play for 5 min without it crashing
Do you guys have any ideas on why this is happening or what we could do to fix it?

This also happens to me on stock. Kinda frustrating, but I have confidence it will be solved in the future.

That's strange. What ROM/kernel are you using? N64oid never crashes on me. (Except for certain roms, such as Zelda).
Stock rom and the latest zedomax kernel. It doesn't force close either.. Just ends the Rom and brings me back to the Rom selection screen.

this happens with just about any kind of game I play, not just emulators. any kind of tower defense game or plants vs zombies or anything that requires some sort of graphics. games like spades or dominoes or games with low graphical requirements seem to be fine. ive been rooted from day one and have always had a custom kernel and rom. my gf's e4gt was stock until about a week ago and her's did the same thing. you can play for 5 - 10 min then the games would just close. no FC, just close. battery temps rise as well when this happens. I wonder if its not a dodgy gpu or gpu driver?

Mine's the opposite. Runs fine on n64oid, Alchemy, Cut the Rope, and even Beats. But Gameboid and GBcoid both randomly crash (without prompting a FC.)
I believe I may have found the culprit, at least for me. I was having the same issue as many of you, SNESDroid would just go back to the main screen without a FC. Then while trying to play the same parts of the game all over again, I decided to fast-forward everything and I noticed for the longest time the game didn't crash on me. So I decided to try something out and disabled the sound in the settings menu. So far the game hasn't crashed on me. It's unfortunate that I don't get to hear anything though, but I'd rather play a quiet game that doesn't crash. Than hear some audio and have the game crash on me every 5 - 10 mins.

I will try this out when I can, but like others, why does it only do this with Gameboid and GBCoid and not the heavier emulators like N64oid?

Has anyone made any headway with this? I've tried a variety of tricks but Gameboid keeps crashing within 5 minutes of starting the game.
I've had the same problems with some emulators from the android market. They would crash within a mintue or two. So I uninstalled them and found NESoid and SNESoid. They last longer but they still crash with no FC message. I'm running Starburst v1.5 and Zedomax OC Kernel

Lag while playing my favorite game

Does anyone else play Home Run Battle 2? If so, do you notice any lag? Sometimes the game will play smooth but other times, it lags so bad that sometimes you can't even play it. Is anyone noticing lag in any other game or this game?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Dude yes! I notice it with temple run and it sux because this phone is powerful. I just hope its the app/game not being optimized yet
I feel your pain man with restaurant story all TW ROMs lag in these type of games even OC to 1.8ghz when I go to a CM9 or CM10 jellybean type ROM they work perfectly fine smooth and with my G2 games ran smooth as well not sure what's the deal here. I'm on AOKP based of CM10 and they work fine but I sure do miss TW.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I suppose this sounds like a software problem which sucks. If the games are running fine on different roms then it looks like the hardware is obviously powerful enough. I hope this issue gets fixed quickly.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I think it's app related. On my HTC One S playing temple run I would get lag and it would be bad enough for me to miss a jump, slide show and die. I get is far less on the gs3 but it's still a bit noticeable.

It's a 1.8gig install. How fast is your connection?
Is it still all laggy? I bought it a while back with my free N7 money and it was not smooth. I haven't bothered redownloading it since.
Its fast enuf... (Wi fi) for other games like horn it all got downloaded properly ( i know d size is bit less, and game downloads data after installing)
But the prob here is that its not getting to actual download... its not getting to even that 0% or 1% ...

For me there is no lag and I love it. It is a little weird how the combat is so similar with the console Batman games.
what are you running? I'm on just PA and stock kernel. Idk, for me some framerates seem to slow occasionally. And I feel the camera is too close... hard to fight when a bunch of guys are around. But, i've only got to play a few minutes. I'll see after playing a little more.
