hello so i have a r800x and recently i went to play temple run and the runner was staying to the left of the screen. so i thought it was just the app and re downloaded it but same problem. so i got a device test to test my sensors and the accelerometer was off to the left when i was holding it straight. so i got a friends phone a samsung fascinate and it was fine so can someone help plzzzz...... P.S. i tried a calibrator with no avail so plz help
I have this issue too but only in temple run. Temple run brave and other similar games are good.

Its a problem of the xperia play, i checked it on two R800a devices and its the same, on every game or program the accelerometer is tilted to the left.
I have the same problem with the last update of Temple run, I thought that I was the only one with this issue. All the other games don't have the problem so, I think is a bug from the game with its last update.
Don't worry it's just lag, when the system starts to get stressed, the accelerometer will temporarily stop working. If it gets more stressed, it will stop serving touch screen response, ultimately triggering an ANR (application not responding).
It also happens with Running Fred when your device gets stressed by trying to run lots of apps at the same time, etc. But I believe this type of lag is the developer's fault when coding the app.

the game turns goes on fine until the loading screen that takes you to the actual gaming part. the loading screen starts flickering and i can hear everything in the background but the screen just keeps flickering and i cant play. any solutions?
and apparently it cant handle sims 3. and a couple other games i forget but will add if i remember
games might not be compatible with the aria
So there's no way to fix this then?

Is anyone else having this. In nova 2 the left trackpad work brilliantly for the move and strafe but with the right one it doesnt keep turning for the aim it just moves like a laptop trackpad and i have to keep swiping the pad to get it to move. also in star battalion it very spazmodic on if it work or not, sometimes it will turn the ship in all directions sometimes it will forget how to turn uphill etc etc. just wondering if this is game implimentation issues or if i have a faulty handset.
yh for me too in start battalion its pretty horrible and sometimes the sensitivity seems just plain random. however playing spiderman HD, Asphalt or Gun Bros the track pads work flawlessly!
im guessing it comes down to how the devs code the apps to use the trackpads.
Im having the same issues with star battalion.
Its odd that devs are having trouble getting used to real controls again.
Optimizing for touch screens must have been a huge step backwards for them as well as the gamers who used it
do you get this problem with crash bandicoot too? i noticed i had that problem with nova and another gameloft game dont think ill buy another fps from them anytime soon try a different game.
I've been having a few issues with a couple of games freezing and have also had the phone get quite hot, particularly around the camera end. The two games I've had freeze up a lot are Fruit Slice and Pinball Classic, neither are spectacular graphics wise. Basically the games just freeze up and either I'm ejected to the home screen or I have to power off/restart. Occasionally I do get the "Force Close" box, but not very often, this contrary to what I would expect if it were just a normal bug related issue. sometimes it crashes after 5 mins or so, other times straight away. What makes me think it might be overheating is that once it does freeze up, it will do so again almost instantly if I relaunch. The rest of the phone seems okay in operation, I've run a few benchmarks and stress tests, all run okay so far. However (and it is a BIG however), once the phone has got warm, if I go to adjust my screen brightness I am limited to how high I can raise it and receive the following message: "To avoid overheating, maximum brightness has been reduced" (I've attached a screen print below).
Does anybody else get these issues or that message?
Got that "To avoid overheating..." message too while using Navigon Mobile Navigator inside my car (attached to charger).
In some other post I also read about a message like "To avoid overheating, the charging process has been paused", but this depends on the temperature of the battery only (I think).
Regarding the crashing games, that might be a problem of the game. But I had some crashing games, too, but I could not find a relation to the temperature of the phone.
Anyway, it could still be a heat problem.
In my opinion it would had be better for samsung to make the phone some mm thicker to better deal with heat and including a more powerful battery than just claiming to have the thinnest superphone.
Anyway, its still a great device.
Useful to hear it happens on other handsets, in fact I've now found a few threads talking about the issue happening on other models of samsung phone, such as the Infuse.
On the crashing games front, would you mind trying out Fruit Slice for a bit, to see if it hangs on you? If it dosen't crash after 10 mins or so I would think you're okay.
about overheating
i did experience it
when i left the phone in the car it became very hot and i get the same message

I'll try that as soon as I have it back (and if I remember to test), its currently at the repair facility because of a faulty camera.

Cheers, really appreiated. Just to update, I played it again just now, managed 3 games before it froze and kicked me out to the home screen; again no crash dialoge asking force close/wait?! I also checked my temp immediatly after it crashed, using Stability Test V1.5, it reported 31c, which dosen't sound too hot from what I've heard...who knows, cheers agian though!

sorry about the double post
Okay, I've been playing now about 15+ minutes without any problem. The phone doesnt get even hot, just a little bit warm. Using Navigon Navigator it gets a LOT more hotter.
So maybe you should try a factory reset? Or its a faulty phone...
By the way, I had display brightness set to Auto and I'm on german KE7 firmware.
When I play games like gta 3 with accelerometer it doesn't detect that its in landscape mode so it keeps veering off to one side. How can I fix it?
I thought gta 3 doesnt use the accelerometer since it has the on screen controls for you to play with?
sometimes riptide gp does this to me. The solution i found was fully exit the app, lay nexus on flat surface, restart the app, then pick up nexus and play. Corrects issue in riptide when i do that

Is the problem with the Accelerometer a problem though??
My Accelerometer is wonky as well. Please can you other Nexus 7 owners test your Accelerometer by playing a racing game that utilises it.
I would like to determine if this is a fault or not.
Thanks in Advance.
Depending on how you're holding it when you start the game it does seem to cause some issues.
Like in a racing game, constantly veering to one side. If you exit and start it back up with the tablet laying flat it corrects it.

OK, when I start a game, lets take Asphalt 7: Heat, I press the app, immediately I hold the tablet in landscape mode and navigate to a race that way. Then upon starting a race i hold the tab in both hands completely vertically almost.
Is this a software issue I wonder?

I am convinced now this is a software issue. Having various things I can get it to work and also make the problem occur.

I replaced the Nexus 7 today and it works better now.
Using androsensor app, my accelerometer seems to always be going several meters per second. Not playing a racing games so it doesn't really matter

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 %
