Massive Graphical Problems after Update zo 4.3

sci666 — Thu, 30 Jan 2014 12:11:32 GMT

i updated my sony xperia Z1 to Android 4.3 build 14.2.A.0.290 and i got massive graphical problems ! most of the games doesnt work anymore.

the games start but half ot the graphics is missing - for example the background layer is shown but the foreground layer is missing with buttons, player charackter , landscapes and so on .... for example hungry shark evolution, elder sign, i, gladiator, dead trigger 2. some games are working normally like asphalt 8 .... but 80% are NOT working ....

why does sony put this update live ????

ya, after 4.3 update I'm also noticed same problem in my z1, eg subway surfer game. but it's not big issue just backup ur phone and reset the phone, then ur problem will be solved. after the phone reset many other issues also solved like sound enhancement issue nd nfc, etc.

That's a compatibility issue that the game developer has to address

I think this could be related to the games and Android 4.3 not being fully compatible with older versions of the game APK.

Some developers provide a different APK for different Android versions.

Have you tried to uninstall and download the games again from Google Play store?

If it still wont work I think the game developer may need to optimize the game for Android 4.3.

Were all this games downloaded from the playstore?
