One game (Crayon Physics) suddenly running slow and no sound.

Guys, so I installed this Crayon Physics game last night and played it without a problem. Today, I opened the game again and strangely it produced no sound and the game ran very slow. Mind you, I haven't made any major change to my phone since last night. Resetting the device doesn't have any effect. Neither does reinstalling the game in different location (internal memory). All other games run just fine. Anyone knows what might be the problem? Thanks.

Run a checkdisk program on the card ASAP.

Reinstall it if that doesn't work.

I have reinstalled the game and reinstalled it on the device instead of storage card. Please read my first post.

have the game... do a soft reboot ... that fixes the problem for me ... crayon physics isnt efficient code wise thats the problem...

funny how they mentioned both things you've tried
i would see if it is completly uninstalled if you have sk tools or something
or personally check the files then re download the game and use the new cab

ok, i reinstalled it once more time on my device. now it's smooth but still no sound. tried soft reset after that, but it only made the game lag although not as bad as yesterday. hmm this is confusing.

I had performance issues as well with Crayon, very laggy on my TG01.
Disabling the sound ingame did the trick for me, smooth as silk

G-sensor problem

I have tried to install racing games on my Adam lately, but there is a major problem. The screen is in landscape, but the steering (g-sensor) is acting like the device is in portrait mode.
Have anyone else experienced this problem and maybe found a solution?

No configuration in the settings for the game?

Nope, unfortunately enough

It's a known issue.

A known issue with certain games, not the Adam itself. This would also affect most other tablets including the Xoom and Transformer.
Some games are hardcoded with phones in mind, and their default setup is portrait, not landscape. As time goes on, Android game devs will likely correct these issues (and in many cases they have, in the last few months). But it will probably be a long time before it's 100%.

[Q] Screen Freezes on some Graphically Intensive Games

I have recently experienced an issue that never happened before while playing demanding games. Basically, my a500 will seemingly randomly freeze on an individual frame of the game an the screen will start to flicker on and off. Audio and touch input from the screen still work as I can hear the sound effects made from touching the areas of the screen (gun firing etc.), however the screen refuses to do anything but flicker on the same frame until I force close the app from the task manager (it isn't even detected as unresponsive). This has taken place on NOVA 2 and MC3 as well playstation and n64 emulators. I just upgraded to Civato's flex jb so I'm not sure if its a compatibility issue with a500, but I seem to remember all of these apps working when I first upgraded so I'm not sure what gives now. Any help would be appreciated.

I have exactly the same problem with my a500

I have exactly the same problem with my Acer a500. It's incredible to see that it has passed more than a year and there still isn't a solution for this problem. Many a500 users say that it may be a memory problem. Since then, when I need to run some graphic demanding games or apps, I first stop some applications that are running.

My Gt3 does it on mupen too but only if I load state from slower game speed like 50 %

GT 7510 gaming performance

OK I play order and chaos. My tab burns through everything else ( even Nova 3 with no hiccups at all). But order and chaos, I'm getting at best 15 fps and nothing I do changes that. I've OC,ed this thing up to 1600 with no change whatsoever. I've tried multiple roms with different options and kernals. Has anybody found a fix or work around? I know the tab can blow this game away.

Black screen on several games at start up

Hi guys!
First off, long time lurker, I've been hitting up this site for XP stuff since 2012, only joined today to ask something to pretty well the only still active XP community out there. Forgive me for this post that is almost certainly in the wrong spot and the wrong thing entirely.
Anyways, I bought a new XP a couple of weeks ago and so far it's been great. Only thing is, a few games don't work as well as they did back in 2013/14 when I still used this phone as my mainer.
Namely, Age of Zombies and Modern Combat 4.
Age of Zombies lost support for the control pad way back when and I remember being so bummed about it, but anyway, the demo hasn't been patched in a couple years and should still work with it, right? All I want is survival mode after all and that's in there. So I download the lite version off the Play Store fine and then it gets a black screen when I start it, every time. Full game works fine (touch screen only obviously though) which is why it's weird. I did the same thing with Minecraft too, full version lost support for controls (which is ironic since it launched there, but whatever) and I went back to the demo version, but that works fine.
MC 4 on the other hand, I've deleted and reinstalled the game countless times now, deleted and reinstalled just the patch, moved to SD, moved back to phone, even tried a couple of pirate versions after a while and nothing. It just crashes every time I launch the game. It will show the Gameloft logo and then crash to the menu every time without fail. I've got MC 3 running on it fine though which makes it even more annoying.
Anyway, I'm running normal old 2.3.3 with absolutely zero mods done to it (I forgot this poor sucker is stuck with auto brightness and an inability to take screenshots) and everything else is running fine. Vice City runs a champ, ePSXe is going strong, MC 3 as I said earlier, and so on.
Neon Shadow also gets the black screen, but my memory was lying to me when it thought that game supported the XP gamepad anyways so I don't care, runs fine on my Nexus anyways.
Anyhoo, any and all help would be greatly appreciated and hopefully it is something like me being too stupid to turn on an obvious option or something. Thanks guys!
