Oh I've been doing this a long while. I wouldnt have said anything if I haven't tested. Stock gpu settings, no under clock or under volt. Have tried different settings, reinstalling, etc. it's not a huge deal I don't game a lot. Rom is fabulous.

I've had this problem since day 1. I also tried other 4.2.2 Roms and had the same problem. This lead. me to believe this is a compatibility issues. Not all 3d games crash. So far the Simpsons tapped out game crashes on all the 4.2.2 Roms that I have flashed. So please try out this and let me know if it crashes on your phone also. But god dam such a smooth n beautiful rom otherwise, keep up the great work.

Idk why the games are crashing on you guys but i can honestly say that the games mention above works since x1 and still working for me now. So its not exactly the roms fault. Did you guys format the system when upgrading?

Cause i read on a few other ROMs that its needed. Can you guys do a cwm backup the full wipe with format system. See if it solve the game issues.

On stweak try disabling cortex brain. See if the extra boost help.

Is your stweak set stock or did you change some settings around?

I've had this problem since x1 with full wipes and download apps from the playstore. I've only restored data either from titanium backup or carbon. Still same problem.

I'm going to agree with those having performance issues with games. Mildly-intensive games were lagging, so I can't imagine how the heavy-duty games would handle. Potential fix: once I switched to ondemand (performance is too aggressive), my problems melted away.

bricked

Last night i was playing a game and my low bat notice came up. I plugged phone in and continued playing. The phone shut down out of the blue. No notice saying it was shutting down. I figured the game just took more juice then charger was giving so i waited a bit and tried to restart it and there is nothing. I left on charge all night got up this morning and same thing. Sometimes when you plug it in the bat pops up on screen then just goes away. Has anyone had this happen to them? I love the rom and have been running x1 and x2 no problem at all. X4 had been running most of day with no funny issues very smooth. I am at a loss on this. Any ideas? It wont boot to recovery download mode or anything. It is just a brick.

Try removing the battery for 30m or more. Then try it again. Have you tried using the computer to charge?

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X4][New Mali]

Anyone else having issues with random reboots? Ive had 4 till now...i think. One was while using xda app one while checking email (opening an attachment), while sending a text via text free. One was just phone not waking up. With that being said maybe a full wipe is in order. I only did dalvik and other cache as I was on x2. Just wondering if anyone else having similar issues. No gaming issues though.
