NG won't run under ICS
« on: February 16, 2012, 09:17:14 PM »
I flashed one of the Ice Cream Sandwich builds yesterday and afterwards I found that Neongeo (v 1.149) won't start.  As soon as I tap the icon to start it, it pops up a dialog box saying it has stopped.  I tried clearing the cache and reinstalling, but the behavior persisted.

I went back to a non-ICS flash this morning (BlackIce v1.27b8) and NG works fine there.

If you can give more detail - what phone, what ROM etc, then we can try to help.

When you did you ROM, did you do a full wipe as not doing this often leads to issues with programs.

 
  • wipe data /Factory reset
  • wipe cache
  • wipe dalvik cache
  • wipe battery stats

I am using NG on a HTC Leo running ICS (v4.0.3) and a Motorola Xoom running ICS (v4.0.3). It works flawelessly on both devices. It might be something ROM-specific.

Also installed ICS (4.0.3) and couldn't find anything related to instant FC.

Some other stability issue detected and fixed, since debugging features have improved a lot from previous Android versions, loving ICS for that :)

upgrading my s2 to went ok, running neongeo was also ok. Then I got the update for the live update this morning, and now neongeo fails to start.  :'( I have submitted several crash reports.

For me it started working again after turning disabling Force GPU Rendering in Settings / Developer Options.

Thanks for the info!

I'll be digging into this issue asap. As a side note, Neongeo uses mixed software and harware rendering techniques. Basically, Map View is GPU rendered, while other views use Android high-level graphic components.
