Gyroscope games and touch screen get really buggy when plugged in

So I play a lot of Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus online. Since this is a detailed 3D game, it uses loads of power. Like I can play for a good 45 minutes or so until my battery dies. Because of this, I need to keep my touch plugged in when I'm playing. The only problem is that when I plug it in and start playing the game, the gyroscope/touch controls go CRAZY. Like the whole screen shakes, it will randomly throw grenades, shoot, or just randomly have me spin in circles. Because of this, playing the game while plugged in is impossible. Does anyone know whats wrong? Is is a defective gyroscope or a bug or something? Also, I'm using a wall charger (non-apple brand) if that makes a difference. It wasn't doing this about a week ago and now its driving me crazy
Any tips?
Thanks!

Sounds like something may not be grounded right using that charger. I would try an Apple-brand charger.

  • My new iPod touch is getting really warm while I use it. Is it normal? I mean, I have silicone cover, maybe it's the reason for iPod being so HOT?... How do you think, is it too important to have a cover on the iPod? How about screen protector? :S

    Likely that the battery is dead.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm. Apple will replace the battery for this price:

    There are third-party places which may be less expensive.  Here is one. Google for more.

  • Is it possible for a iPod touch to get a virus when downloading free games off the internet? If yes, is there an antivirus program to protect the ipod. and can some of the current apps be saved from the virus damage?

    I had one game permanently just stop working, it usually does crash, but that last time it just went bad, I don't know the reason, I tried powering off iPod, relaunching game, but the game never worked again. I think it corrupted its own save file or some of its own data.
    Have you tried another game or app, do those work? If they do, then I guess you know where the problem lies, but if they all stop working, then what about apps, can apps launch?
    Lastly, apps from the app store are checked by Apple, so they are clean.

  • The touch screen is not working when I am in the Music app of my iPod Touch.  How do I get it to begin working?  It just stopped today.

    Does anyone know what I can do?  I am unable to switch screens, and I can not see the track that is playing.  The only was I can switch between songs is to use the controls on my headphones.

    Try the stamdard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Periodically the home key and touch screen are unresponsive

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone4 and have recently noticed that the home key and touch screen are becomming less responsive. Sometimes I have to press the home key a few times to get it to respond also with the touch screen very rarely does it respond when i swipe to unlock or answer a call. The only way to get the swipe to unlock or answer to work is to press the sleep/wake button which is annoying if trying to answer a call.
    Any suggestions?

    it's the hardware issue.
    someway you show may act the lifetime of Home button .

  • TS3293 iPad not backed up message appears and touch screen does not respond

    iPad not backed up message appears and touch screen does not respond

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot

    Worked fine last night. It's running Snow Leopard.

    Does your iMac fail to boot every time or only some of the time?  Here are some things to try:
    - Boot into "safe mode", which will run the equivalent of Disk Utility's "repair disk" operation.
    - Boot from the system install disc that came with that Mac with the "D" key held down to run the diagnostics.  Run them several times to see if any hardware problems are reported.
    - If you can't identify the problem or fix it any other way, download and install the OS X 10.6.7 "combo" updater.
    - If that still doesn't help, try reinstalling OS X 10.6 over the top of what's on the disk.

  • What should i do if my ipod is getting really hot when i use it/

    I need help my ipod keeps getting really hot when i use it

    I would suggest you stop use for a period of time until it cools down. When you turn it off, make sure you exit out of whatever program you are running. If it persists getting hotter, to the point where it's hard to hold, I would suggest you take it into the Apple store nearest you. Depending on how long you have had it, they may be able to replace it for you free of charge.
    It is abnormal for that device to get extremely hot but when it is running multiple programs, such as playing music and surfing safari, it can heat up.

  • In my macbook pro 15 inch mid 2012 model, my cpu and gpu will get very hot, when gaming or rendering sometimes over 200F. The fans only spin at max about 2900 rpm, when their max is 6400. I downloaded a fan control app, but how can i fix it?

    Hi rhaughan,
    I see that you have concerns about your operating temperature of your computer while using resource-heavy applications such as gaming applications. I have an article that will address some of the concerns you have mentioned:
    Mac notebooks: Operating temperature - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201640
    While there are third-party utilities that measure the temperature of a notebook computer, it is important to understand that these utilities are not measuring the external case temperature. The actual case temperature is much lower. Never use third-party applications to diagnose possible hardware issues—instead, contact Apple or go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    You should also see this article for even further information about your fans:

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please help.

    This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
    or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
    Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
    or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
