You can’t even minimize and close the app that it forces you to restart your phone. Sometimes when you leave the game idle it freezes too and you also need to restart your phone. It only occur to the latest versions 1.4.1, 1.4.2, the past versions seems to work fine.

Hmm, it’s a bit confusing. What about 1.4.0?

how to take logs if phone freezes and need to force restart? i think the hardware acceleration for 4.0-5.0 was the cause of phone freezing. Btw 1.4.0 version of J2me is stable to my device

@oatmeal01 Can you take a log? It would be useful since I can’t reproduce this bug, it seems to be really specific.

OK. Then the problem lies elsewhere.

Tested, and the result is still the same phone freezes. Enabled or not. Im okay using v1.4.0 for now.

Try enable and test

@woess nope parallel is not enabled, im loading Templates with no active parallel screen drawing.

I understand very little English. I have an idea how to fix it. I need a clear answer - does “Parallel screen drawing” fix this problem or not (in the latest version)?

@woesss nope it seems like the latest version has a bug that causes freezing. Im using 1.4.0 right now and it is stable.

@Bakugan Stop cussing, nothing is wrong reporting issue. Im not even blaming the dev. Are you stupid?

@oatmeal01, do you have this problem when the “Parallel screen drawing” option is enabled?

Got it, 1.4.0 is stable to my device.

ill try and observe 1.4.0 ill feedback if freezing still occur.

Darn, still my phone hangs after minimizing and going back to the app. 1.4.1 still freezes though.

I guess 1.4.0 should work fine then.

Sorry my mistake, this only occur to 1.4.2 version, i installed 1.4.1 and it works fine now.

Thank you for the info, I will try to reproduce this bug. I have some ideas about it.

Installed 1.4.2 again and still, freezing occur after configuring, phone also freezes when exiting a game. I think im going to stick with the old version of J2me.

Tried 1.3.9 and it works fine. Even when fast tapping START after configuring intalled java.

No, templates can’t cause it.

i dont know if the template is the reason why the app freezes cause i load template from the old versions.

ill try to reinstall 139 and check it if it also freezes

i didn’t notice in 1.3.9 cause everytime i see update i download and install. I just notice this issue after updating to 1.4.1 to the latest. everytime i install java games it freezes when opening after configuring

@oatmeal1 Are you sure you didn’t have this problem in 1.3.9?

Try use other celular.

tried installing different games and for the 6th times my phone freezes when tapping start after configuring the settings after installation.

This happens 3 times in a row right now. I don’t know what triggers the freezing issue. Sometimes its fine, sometimes it freezes.

My Samsung J1 2016 and the emulator is working perfectly.

Yes, all games. Everytime i go to the games configuration and tapping Start the app freezes.

Do you have this issue with all games?
