Jellybean Touchwiz breaks certain games - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I've been playing this game called Plague Inc. Lately and ever since the official ota, the game crashes on me. I thought it was related to Freegs3 v1 but I loaded stock lj7 and it still crashes.
Anyone else noticing any games or apps that are crashing?
It's not Jellybean related, because aosp roms work fine with it. Maybe it's a Samsung app?

I use to play that game but it kept crashing on ICS for me. I got it again today and have been playing it for a few hours on and off with no issues.

Emulators randomly crashing

Anybody else having a problem where Gameboid and GBCoid keep randomly going back to the select rom screen? The apps aren't force closing either and when it does happen it says in the notification bar "Gameboid is running" as if I just pressed the home button or something. Other emulators such as N64oid or SNESoid don't do this either. Idk its just really annoying because the emulation itself is fantastic. If it helps I'm running Starburst rom v1.3 and the kernel it comes with but I don't think that matters because it was happening before I was rooted. Anyways thanks in advance for any fixes and sorry for the long post.

Happens to me. It's definitely something with the device. Ever since I started running midNIGHT rom v2 I haven't had a crash. Although I only tried it about 10 minutes

Same with me. I'm on starburst rom and I can even play for 5 min without it crashing
Do you guys have any ideas on why this is happening or what we could do to fix it?

This also happens to me on stock. Kinda frustrating, but I have confidence it will be solved in the future.

That's strange. What ROM/kernel are you using? N64oid never crashes on me. (Except for certain roms, such as Zelda).
Stock rom and the latest zedomax kernel. It doesn't force close either.. Just ends the Rom and brings me back to the Rom selection screen.

this happens with just about any kind of game I play, not just emulators. any kind of tower defense game or plants vs zombies or anything that requires some sort of graphics. games like spades or dominoes or games with low graphical requirements seem to be fine. ive been rooted from day one and have always had a custom kernel and rom. my gf's e4gt was stock until about a week ago and her's did the same thing. you can play for 5 - 10 min then the games would just close. no FC, just close. battery temps rise as well when this happens. I wonder if its not a dodgy gpu or gpu driver?

Mine's the opposite. Runs fine on n64oid, Alchemy, Cut the Rope, and even Beats. But Gameboid and GBcoid both randomly crash (without prompting a FC.)
I believe I may have found the culprit, at least for me. I was having the same issue as many of you, SNESDroid would just go back to the main screen without a FC. Then while trying to play the same parts of the game all over again, I decided to fast-forward everything and I noticed for the longest time the game didn't crash on me. So I decided to try something out and disabled the sound in the settings menu. So far the game hasn't crashed on me. It's unfortunate that I don't get to hear anything though, but I'd rather play a quiet game that doesn't crash. Than hear some audio and have the game crash on me every 5 - 10 mins.

I will try this out when I can, but like others, why does it only do this with Gameboid and GBCoid and not the heavier emulators like N64oid?

Has anyone made any headway with this? I've tried a variety of tricks but Gameboid keeps crashing within 5 minutes of starting the game.
I've had the same problems with some emulators from the android market. They would crash within a mintue or two. So I uninstalled them and found NESoid and SNESoid. They last longer but they still crash with no FC message. I'm running Starburst v1.5 and Zedomax OC Kernel

Dead Trigger on job leak issues

Has anyone tried playing dead trigger after updating to job leak? I loaded the game and am now seeing lots of graphics glitches (ghosting in the city map view and zombies skins glinching in and out). I wonder if the GPU drivers in the jb leak are not optimized.

I noticed on a couple of games that i frequently play that there are graphics issues as well, such as glitching and my character sometimes disappearing so i reverted back to stock 4.0.4
Dammit just tried myself and you're 100% right.....WTF?!

Streaming (Pandora) causing random reboots

Is anyone else getting random reboots while streaming pandora? It has happened to me every time I listen to pandora for long periods (over half hour). I have tried it on multiple roms and it happens on all of them. The only thing I havent tried it on is stock. Im going to try that today.
I run Pandora on stock for hours at a time and haven't had any reboots or lockups. (Knock on wood)

Im using pandora 4.0, I have found that if I use the stock rom, Im not having any problems. When I use the stock services.jar, so far I havent had any problems. All of the roms that I have had the issue with have a modded services.jar in them.

Graphics problems with games

Whenever I play gta3 on my Galaxy S3, the controls disappear from the screen at a random time during gameplay.
Also, minecraft PE starts off as just a black screen. The only way to get rid of the screen is by opening the options and then closing it again.
What could this be?

[Q] Fun Run Multiplayer Race on GalaxyMod Universal

I really enjoy playing this game, but for some odd reason every time I try to play it on this ROM, it just force closes or gives me a black screen. I tried this game on other ROM and it worked perfectly. I just love the GalaxyMod ROM because of it features and would like to get Fun Run working of this ROM. Is anyone else having this problem?
Yes its a known problem which is why I left that ROM actually lol
