What games and apps crash on your phone?

[MannyZ28]

So far I have found 2:

Warheads
Random Mahjong Pro

Both play just fine until they freeze and just bring you back to the homescreen without any error message.

I can play about 15 mins before they crash.

Is this phone hardware, or just bad, no optimized programming of the app?

Plants vs Zombies

MAME4droid and Virtual City do too.

 

[JDAustin]

Plants vs Zombies

Its at the same point every time also.

Hm, that's not so good to hear, I hope there will be fixes for those games.

Games crashing has been reported since day 1 of release. I don't play games on my phone, but I do hope it gets fixed soon for those that do.

I have found that Grave Defense HD tends to crash somewhat regularly on the phone. It seems to happen when I touch the screen rapidly in a few different places to try to upgrade or place new towers.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling without any fix. My wife can play the same game just fine on her Evo.

Out of the games i play Third Blade crashes on me after a minute. I have played cut the rope for almost an hour no issues but can't pass the the second screen of play... I am not that big of a game player either but i do hope they fix these issues. IMO I think its more the app then the phone.

Pandora keeps crashing for me uinstalled and went with Tune-In Radio and it runs as smooth as butter no crashing and buffers quickly.

Yeah, that Mali 400 gpu supposedly has a weird way to handle texture compression, read that somewhere.

Fruit Ninja, Pinball Deluxe and glow hockey kept crashing on mine. All of those use a good amount of multi-touch. I turned off the stupid tilt to zoom feature to see if that might have been messing it up. Its working so far. I've been playing for almost an hour and not one freeze or crash. Hopefully it it will continue to work fine.
Try this and let me know if it works for you.

Fruit ninja just crashed again, so never mind I guess

Crazy Snowboard hasn't crashed but my phone did get up to 111? F after 10 minutes of playing which kind of concerns me.

Pocket Legends and Muffin Knight consistently crash on me.

Alien Invasion. It's so annoying when I get so much money in a level and then it crashes to home screen.

 

[crumbkake]

Plants vs Zombies

Same. Drives me bonkers.

All from the Amazon Appstore:

Plants vs Zombies
Fieldrunners HD
Grave Defense HD
Airport Mania 2
Checkers


Yeah... checkers... I was playing a 2 player game of checkers... and after the magical 12 minutes or so passed... bam... back to homescreen.

I'm sorry that CHECKERS was too graphically and/or sound intensive for you phone.

... I really wish we knew what was causing this because its so random. For example Airport Mania 1 plays just fine... but Airport Mania 2 suffers the bug... and the games are almost identical.

Plants vs zombies (as others have stated). Play fruit ninja for only 5 minutes or so at a time so haven't reached that magical time limit it seems yet.
