Strange problem with some specific games (that should be compatible)

Hello everyone.
Got myself an Iphone 4 on day one: it's my first apple product and I'm really happy with it (I'm comming from the windows mobile world/****).
But I soon discovered a strange compatibility problem that only happens with some games, even after they got ios4 updates (and those games are working on friends iphones 4).
I thought it could be a software issue so I tried to restore my phone, then re-sync it, but still having the same issues
Problematic games are Worms, Chaos rings, Texting of the bread and Cro-Mag Rally.
When launching Worms, only a quarter of the screen shows up, with messy graphics.
For the other 3, I can enter menus, everything seems fine until the actual game launches, wich gives me the same results as the one described for T17's Worms: only a small portion of the screen shows up, flikering with messy pixeled graphics.
I'm starting to wonder if this could be a hardware issue, even though tones of games are working perfectly (including 3d heavy ones like Epic citadel or Archetype)
Any help would be greatly apreciated!

Sounds like those games are corrupted. Delete them on your phone, then delete them in itunes, when prompted, move all files to trash, empty your trash. Then sync your phone to insure that all traces are removed from your phone. Then re-download them in itunes(you can re-download purchased apps for free), sync them back to your phone. See if this fixes things.

    I encountered a problem with some client machines that use Firefox version 24ESR and IE8.
    Ajax requests of aspx pages from Firefox are getting the following error from the iis server (iis version 7.5):
    Bad Request - Request Too Long
    HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long.
    From analyzing the request that was sent to the server, I saw that the request consist of only the viewstate of the aspx page.
    I tried to disable the viewstate for one page and the server got the request correctly.
    I do not encounter any issues on these laptops with postback requests from Firefox or when running the same application with IE8.

    Sometimes that means that the page address sent is loo long.
    Check the link address you are using.
    I can't help you further and will send for more help.

  • 2 days ago I started having problems with some web sites that previously worked fine. They still work fine on other browsers. What happened & can you fix it?

    On the Times newspaper site I was using December 19 some of the features stopped working. Has Firefox made an update? I tried downloading Firefox 9.0 but the problems persist. At the end of the news articles is a comments section but this no longer displays in Firefox. There is a SuDoku feature in the Puzzles section which is no longer accessible by Firefox.

  • Strange problem with SQL query in toad.

    Guys,
    My colleague is up with a strange problem with an SQL query that if it is run in toad encounters the "ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel" problem,but if run in SQL plus executes just fine.
    Do anyone have thoughts about this strange error in toad?
    Thanks!!!!
    Regards,
    Bhagat

    Not sure what version of TOAD you have but it may have shipped with SQLMonitor which montiors SQL sent from Windows apps . Navigation should be similar to;
    Start~Programs~Quest Software~TOAD for Oracle~Tools~SQLMonitor
    or
    C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\SQLMonitor.exe
    To use it, start TOAD and connect, start SQLMonitor and click the checkbox for TOAD.exe, then execute the query. SQLMonitor will show you the actual query that TOAD sent to the client. It may be exactly what you sent or it may contain some extras.

  • Strange problem with Inheritance

    Hi,
    I have a Strange problem with Inheritance which I think should work, but doesn't.
    I have 3 classes in 3 different packages.
    Class A in package 1 is abstract
    Class B extend class A is also Abstract and is in package 2
    Class C extend Class B and is in package 3
    When i do the following
    C c = new C();
    A a = (A)c;
    I get a class cast exception
    Any ideas?
    Jag

    That should work fine. Can you check the exact classes created (using: System.out.println(c.getClass().toString()). You may have accidentally created an instance of a class with the same name but from a different package.

  • Strange problem with JOptionPane.showInputDialog

    I have a strange problem with JOptionPane.showInputDialog in that when I run a program anything that is typed in is displayed backwards, for example: I type this character > and this < is what is displayed.
    I've uninstalled the sdk and reinstalled it twice but that hasn't solved my problem and the java plug-in in the control panel is displaying the same symptoms.
    I did a search before posting this but all I got really was posts from people who wanted to reverse their text.
    Thanks for your help on this.

    Is it just the < and > characters?

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

  • Problems with textures in games, strange info in BIOS etc. G4MX440

    specs:
    athlon 1700+
    G4MX440
    power supply:
    3,3V 20A
    5V 30A
    problems:  ?(
     1) in "Black&White" and "No one lives forever" i get strange problems with textures - it shows everything at the same time  (ie what's behind a wall), it all blinks. (isn't that connected with Z-buffer??)
     2) the MSI program i've installed gives me warnings that the voltage in the graphics card or the fan speed has changed. In BIOS i can see the statistics:
    ie "4,89v" (it changes every 2 seconds) next to a "5v"
    I've read some of the threads, and i think that you'll say it's the power supply, but what else could it be? i'd like to try all the other things before changing (buying a new) power supply. The drivers are newest, and games like: Medal of Honor, Morrowind, Wolfenstein, Quake III run great.
                                      rg

    rg,
    You are running an NV17 which is not has power hungry as the NV25.
    I would try using the latest nVidia Detonator4 Drivers from the nVidia Website.
    Good Luck,

  • Satellite L870-16C -display problems with some games

    Hi,
    I've bought this laptop recently and it turned out that i have tearing problems with some games.
    But really not with all games, just some of them (ex: the witcher, borderlands, trine...).
    So i was wondering what the problem could be?
    So far, i've heard it could be a v-sync problem, but everything i've done regarding this didn't change a thing.
    Is it just a software issue or could it be a hardware problem with the graphic card?
    I'm considering sending back my laptop to Toshiba, so i wanted to know if this was the only solution (and if it was a solution indeed).
    For information, it's a L870-16C with a ati radeon HD 7670m graphic card (driver version: 12.10-130101a-151427E-ATI), operating on windows 8 64 bit.
    Does anyone have some clues?
    thanks

    What game problems do you have exactly?
    Could you be more precise?
    You said that you have some problems but NOT with all games.
    Therefore I dont think that you have an hardware problem
    In most cases (any) games issues are related to graphic card drivers in my long gaming experience, all issues which I had in the past were related to compatibility problems between driver and game.

  • Some strange problem with Flash/As3

    Hi,
    I am having some strange problem with my flash cs3.
    Whatever script I write in as3  doesn't work, even a stop() function doesn't work . But when I change my publish setting to as2 it works fine.
    Not sure about the root cause, may be some setting or preference or my cs3 is corrupted.
    Can anybody please advise.
    Thanks,
    Kishor

    You can only see them in "batches" of ten. As far as I know there is no way to obtain a comprehensive summary.
    The prices are tabulated in that list. If they were supposed to be free, and they show that you were charged, then click the arrow next to the suspect purchases and click "report a problem".

  • Strange problem with DatagramSocket and DatagramPacket.

    Hi!
    I got a strange problem with UDP sockets:
    Client (hardware device) send binary data messages, consisting of bytes and shorts fields (8 and 16 bits). But when I tried to read byte array, received from socket, I got some type anomaly. For example:
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, 1024);
    socket.receive(packet);
    byte[] data = packet.getData();
    System.out.println("Received data:");
    for (int i = 0; i < packet.getLength(); i++) {
      System.out.printf("%h:", data);
    I got such thing: 34:4:fffffff1:ffffffdb:ffffffdc:20:1:1:0:2:50
    If I try to parse it using ByteArrayInputStream and DataInputStream
    ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(packet.getData());
    DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
    int head = dis.readByte();
    int recvinfo = dis.readByte();
    short count = (short)dis.readShort();
    System.err.printf("Decoded:\n head: %h\n recvinfo: %h\n count: %h\n",
         head, recvinfo, count);i got following:
    Decoded:
    head: 34
    recvinfo: 4
    count: fffff1db
    So I get Integer entries in byte?! array. I also got Integer even I try to read and cast it as short in short!!! variable.
    Please help!
    P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

    Rather fortunate that it auto-casts(or rather, that 0xFF is int by default, rather than attempting any type-detection as most languages do), as otherwise the brackets would have been in the wrong place. If it was still a byte after the "& 0xFF", sign extension would still occur.
    For the sake of the less bit-literate reading this thread, it should be explained that the reason for this was large bytes being interpreted as negative numbers, which translate to negative int, which in hexa become very large ints. That's about as verbose as I can be about this without writing the equivalent of a wikipedia entry about 2s complement.
