GTA Vice City Freeze on my GS3 - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hello,
I bought the game GTA : Vice City, but every time I enter a car the game freeze.
The radio keeps playing and the map(compass) move, but the rest (cars, people, lights, etc..) stay still.
On foot the game run great, no problem.
On GTA 3, I have no problem at all, in car or on foot.
Anyone else have problems with this game ?
I am on CM10.1 (10/01/13)
Thanks a lot !
EDIT :
I tryed :
Re-downloading the game.
Changed the graphics options
Additional information :
Nothing happens during the cut scenes, I just hear the voices.
I'm french.
Cheers !

There are reports of Rockstar games not working on CM10.1 for our phone in the main thread and other threads and probably on their app page in the play store.
I'm American.

I've heard of vice city having trouble still. I have gta3 plays real good with no problems

Do you guys have any issues with the game ?
I am currently updating the the lastest nightly.
Will also try :
Disabling HW ovverlay,
Using an other Kernel (Probably KTweaker).

+1 same problem, but I am not french

Okay so the issue is still there after :
11/01 nightly CM10.1
Disabling HW Overlays
Installing an other Kernel
I guess this is a device/rom issue and we have to wait for Rockstar, unless it's working for someone else.

Get the gta3 works great on my stock gs3

Guess you are just gonna have to wait for it to be fixed or downgrade your rom...

Even with stock roms people are having issues with that badly done port. Another way to grab some easy cash without much resource on it.

Its an issue with the vice city game its self they relsased it early and its an issue with the saved game reopening that contains unresolved variables that inturn cuase a crash in the vertual streamed world hence when u drive or walk out of the streamed area everything stops no way to fix it best advice save carfully dont cheat then save make sure you dont save with anything odd

Sorry for bumping a rather old thread but I'm curious as to whether any solution came up. I'm having the exact same problem on my Xperia L stock firmware = fine on foot, no cutscenes, car freezes the screen yet compass keeps going.

Just set resolution to 100% in display options.
Like HiTman said.

Sorry to bump a old thread just wanted to say thank you to he people that said put resolution to 100%
I have a ZTE Supreme (Vital) with Virgin Mobile and kept freezing and not playing cut scenes. Put the resolution up to 100%
and the game plays PERFECT NOW! THANK YOU!!!! Can't wait for GTA SA to come out in December!
Love this phone even more now! Heres to hoping devs give my phone some love with some new roms and kernels but runs FAST!
Much better than my friends GS3!
Cheers and Thank you!

[Q] Performance of Emulators

Moderators please move this thread if it is in the inappropriate place . I couldn't decide where it should be so I decided to put in general just to be safe.
As the topics suggests I would like to know the performance of various emulators for Android such as PSX4droid, NDS4droid, Tigerlabs, gba4droid etc. on the Samsung Galaxy SII. If anyone has tried any type of emulator made for android please post your opinions and evaluations below regarding its perfomance, quality, FPSetc below.
Okay Guys Confirmed Emulators working with full speed on the Samsung Galaxy SII
FPSe
n64oid
SNESoid
GameBoid
More coming soon according to developers........
FPSE (psx emulator) - Full Speed with sound. Played Crash bandicoot, and final fantasy 9
n64oid - no lag in mario kart, ocarina of time, golden eye (sound lags at loading sometimes but i think it's a defect in the emulator)

sorry but it just pisses me off that some people on here assume that everyone is as techy as they are, I've searched in the market and can't find it. My phone is not rooted so don't think you can help me

Its not on the market anymore.
But if you search google for n64oid , you will prob find an apk and then stick that on your phones storage and install.
I dont have it so i don't know where to find it, but if you google you will definatly find it.
btw has anyone tried the sega emulator that went out of development a few months ago on the sg2? How is the emulation on that?
Thanks, I've managed to get N64oid but now struggling to find a good website to download the ROMs, anyone got any good suggestions?

GTA III + Samsung Galaxy S I9000

Does it work with you?
I could open it, download game data but then it closes (no force close) every time I click on the app icon. Downloaded Chainfire 3D, installed it, but no luck.
I9000 + MIUI
Works for me pretty smoothly.
I really want to download this game but i want to know if the i9000 can handle it first =/.
If it doesn't work go into market and hit refund. I believe it gives you a full refund if you uninstall within 15 minutes of downloading.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Yeah thats true but the problem with big games like this is that if you have trouble downloading the additional files the 15 minute window can soon disapear.
They should have left the refund time at 1 hour. 15 minutes just isnt enough half of the time.
Of course it will run smoothly on Galaxy S... It's 1 thread optimized game and actually does not require dual core device.
pls post your kernel, rom or other requirments what we need to play.
thanks.

I9000? Which ROM?
I'm getting a bit closer now... I can now watch the two intros, but then it exits again.
Doesn't work for me (Cyanogenfortomorrow). Damn, i first bought it on Galaxy S, than i got my money back. Later i tried on galaxy nexus, where it isn't working either, and now i can't get back my money.
It's not working for me either (i'm on Darkys 10.2 EE),i'm now installing Chainfire 3d as you suggested
edit: doesnt work with chainfire3d either...
Lame!
I really wanted to download this game =[

How did you get it to work? Help us!
It almost works for me
It opens, and when I leave it, it shows the credits while music is playing. However, when I touch the screen, it turns black and nothing seems to happen anymore.
I am running Simplicity 2.1
edit: just got it as far as the homescreen, clicked start game, and now I have a black screen and nothing happens :-(
edit2: with chainfire3d it doesn't work either
Maybe he was telling porky pies
Has anyone on a stock rom tried running it?
Has anyone been on the android market on their PC and searched for this game?
Why is their like 5 different versions of it with like 1 pence difference

GTA 3 still crashes....

I have tried with different roms and kernels and after driving in the first mission the game crashes and goes out.
Any recommendation?

mines running fine, did you buy the game? i would suggest contacting rockstar
Im running CM7 Alpha 2. No problems with GTA3
You should wipe all and fresh install a rom. Then install GTA3 first. An app could prevent it from working properly. And test the game after every 2 or 3 app installs, then you can narrow it down.
Clear data... then reinstall the data files

Hang tight guys. Rockstar is working on a patch for our exact model right now. I have been in talks with them over several days while they tried to patch it. They released a patch today but did it for the international gs2. I forgot to tell them it was the T989.
They just told me a patch would come tomorrow for us and they're working right now to white list our exact model.
——————————
Deebo took your bike too?
Thank you all.
I will try these options.
Btw: The game won't run on the stock rom. I've tried. It does run on Mr. X's rom though.
Just wait and be patient.
——————————
Deebo took your bike too?
I found the problem. This game did not work because I had the nvidia plugin activated on chainfire. Once the "none" option is selected the game will work perfectly.
Thank you guys anyway
Please use original thread to post about GTA. Thanks.

[Q] App Question - Sonic Retro Engine (Android ports of Sonic 1/2/CD)

Hi all,
Bit of an odd one, but I love my G Pad, it gets used heavily. I know this possibly out of the scope of this forum, but I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing an issue with Sonic 1, 2 or CD on this tablet. It's a weird issue, due to at first playing silky smooth - then it gets 20 seconds in and suddenly it goes slow-motion.
I'm on KitKat - does it work well for anyone else? If so any suggestions for what could be causing it to work perfectly for a set amount of time then slowing down?
any idea for fixes?
If more than me experiences these issues I'll chase the developer!

Yes, 4.4.2 stock. I didn't get to try out Sonic on 4.2.2 because the first thing I did when I got the G Pad was update it. (I only got this device last week)

Well if I get a response I'll let you know. I got my tablet in May. It's a great little device. Hardly put mine down
Hi,
Same thing here (v20a 4.4.2 root)
Tested Sonic 2 and Sonic CD. These games ran flawlessly two days ago, when I was still in 4.2.2...
FYI same problem with "Leo's Fortune" now, which also ran fine before the update
No such problem in "Type Rider" for instance (similar gameplay)
These are the only ones I tested so far
Any problem with other games ?
edit : When it happens, pressing Home button then going back to the game gives another 20 seconds of smooth gameplay, but then...
In another (french) forum, a guy reported having this issue with 4.4.2 stock, but not anymore after installing CM11
Sounds like LG software might be the problem, not KitKat

Hmm interesting. At first I was very much against rooting and installing a custom rom on this tablet, but slowly the benefits are starting to outweigh the stock. Screen casting and higher app compatibility... hmm.
I would love to see how to make character mods on sonic cd , sonic 1, sonic 2 android and ios ports.Including sprites of sonic, Tails or knuckles from Sonic mania.
