hi i am having the same problem with my xperia arc s which i recently bought, one week!! and yet as i start playing a game i got lag and game when to pause state, i have check my OS version which is the latest one. so i am still wondering where is this issue coming. can anyone help me on this?
Phone OS version : Gingerbread 2.3.4
Kernel version:2.6.32.9
Build:4.0.2.A.0.42
do you have a taskiller installed in your phone?
was the game from the market or is it an emulator?
are you running other heavy apps in the backgroun?
yes i got a task killer on, and this problem applies for all my games from market and other, games from emulator works fine
the problem might be the taskkiller, you don't need the taskiller, it was needed before but now a days, it's not necessary, it drains battery and makes the phone act up.
did this happened before the update?
it was already 2.3.4 when i bought the phone, is it necessary to use "chainfire 3D" to play these games? let me give a try uninstalling taskiller
nope same thing happening, i have just uninstall taskiller but same thing
you have to uninstall it -> turn off your phone -> take the battery out -> press and hold the power button for 5 seconds -> put the battery back on -> try again
ok it is working fine for now thanks for your help but was wondering why would taskiller bug all games
taskillers might stop some parts of the OS that are needed, or sometimes it stop certain extra permissions that a game needs or wants to use
