Why are my game apps all pixelated??

[Android Central Question]

So all morning and afternoon my apps worked fine and now all of the sudden they all became pixelated and can't even see anything..

I am having the same issue. I tried the cache partition wipe yesterday and it worked on a single occasion to play but now the problem is back and the cache partition is not doing anything. I have a Samsung S6. Also noticed that every time I do a restart it gives me the screen for Samsung is initializing, optimizing app x of x which is very annoying (in case this has any relation).

I'd suggest trying it in Safe Mode, but of course you can't test the games out in Safe Mode. So if this is being caused by a 3rd party app, you'd just have to use trial and error and uninstall them one by one to see if the problem goes away.

I had the same problem. i tried searching for a solution but couldn't find any information. but... i tried soft resetting my phone and it worked for 5 hours. I don't know about you but give it a try.

Others are reporting that the cache wipe doesn't work, or doesn't work for too long. I also suggested in the other thread to try uninstalling updates to Android System Webview (for Marshmallow) or Chrome (for Nougat and above).
