Games won't run, RAM overload issue?

[Howard Sylve]

Lately I've noticed games I've had no issues running on my N5 in the past are no suddenly crashing without any explanation. I'm not talking easy on the RAM games like Candy Crush or Guess The Emoji, but rather games like Dead Trigger 2 or other RPG games with high quality graphics and have plenty happening on screen during play. I've tried closing all other apps before starting the games and that doesn't work. I should mention I'm using ART but have been doing so since it's discovery and have no issues. I'm also on 4.4.4. Any suggestions? I'd really like to continue playing titles on my N5.

Android doesn't allow the phone to run out of RAM so I don't think that is the issue. I would try uninstalling one of the games and reinstalling it. Let me know if that works.

I have this problem too with brave frontier. No other apps open etc and it lags all the time when it used to run seamlessly. Crashes once and a while.
I'm also running art

I would recommend you clear/wipe your cache partition.
