Game freezes and emits a buzzing sound

Here's another video. Shows me exiting the game and force quitting and the buzzing stops...I can do this all day...

 I'm also dealing with the buzz & freeze issue but mine seems slightly different. It started with the Padme update....minor lag and buzzing every couple of seconds. Could watch the cantina droid move & stop, move & stop for a few minutes then all was fine. It only happened a few times a day. Now it has gotten progressively worse to the point where playing the game takes FAR more patience than can be expected. Constant buzzing and freezing, can't scroll down in the store tabs, can't swipe right or left, can't participate in practically anything or the game might freeze and buzz until it crashes or I close the game (where the buzzing continues for about 10-20 seconds). I can literally log into the game and put my phone down for as long as 20 minutes before it clears up enough for me to frantically try to get as much done as possible before it gets ridiculous again. I'll include a video of basic menu navigation plus a squad battle that's so riddled with bugs it's difficult to sit through. Please turn your volume down beforehand.

This bug is getting more prominent in the Geo TB and GAC. Essentially the new content.  This is the third Geo TB in a row where this buzz freeze bug happens on the first CM I do in zone 1.  This is not a mirage or a figment of our imagination. 

This only happens when you enter a battle. There is no other time during gamplay when this happens. It seems random when it happens however. Meaning there is no rhyme or reason that this battle will freeze or not.  Its CRAZY.  Is there any update to this at all?

Happened again today in TB. I had a feeling it would happen during the first CM so I opened the recorder. I didn't know it would happen literally right away...is there any progress or even acknowledgement that this is a thing? I promise you if you play on a OnePlus device it will repro...promise!

Happened to me today in GeoTB

Oneplus 3 that is clean and runs smoothly.

It just lags and freezes after a few secondes. 

Have sounds off, so don't know about the buzz. 

It seems you have plenty of people reporting it, in different models, so we can be assured it doesn't come from our side. 

Thanks in advance for the fix, it's very enraging if it happens in GA or TB

Hi,

With my Moto G5S Plus I have encountered the same issue several times, with the game freezing, and a buzzing sound preceding the freeze by up to a minute. My wife just had the same issue this morning. We both lost a Geo TB match because of the freeze, which hurts us and our guild.

The only solution I've found (if you can call it that) is to close the game and open it before attempting any "one-off" missions or events. This occurs mostly during squad battles, and happens every few days.

I have found a possible reliable reproduction points for you. It seems like you have given up on this however.

In the HSTR as you transition from P1 to P2, this buzzing/freeze crash happens quite often.  So enter P1 of the raid with like 3-4% left...whatever amount that you know you will clear it and progress to P2. During the animation right before P2, the buzzing will happen and you will get into the fight with the ability to move for 20-40 sec and the game will freeze. The only way to clear is either hard reboot of your phone or you can go into the Settings -> Apps -> Force close of the game.

The other common point where this bug happens is in GAC where I face ewoks. I have crashed enough times fighting ewoks that there is something uncommon about that team that causes it.

I promise you if you invest in buying a OnePlus phone...ANY version since its happened to me on the last 4 OnePlus phones (i upgraded on each release), it doesn't matter. Tell you what...if you buy a OnePlus and you CANNOT reproduce this bug, I will buy that phone from you.  Or how about this...can I send you a OnePlus phone and if you do reproduce this, you reimburse me otherwise you get a free phone?  This is really ridiculous that you would let this go on for this long.

I am also having issues on samsing a70. Its a clear app issue. Hopefully you got an expert who can actually repair this. Multiple platforms, multi region its clear your app is broken. So politely ask you to fix this as its ruining the game for many players.  

Please do not suggest it's a phone issue. This feels like going to doctors to be given rest ice compress elevate nonsense.

Rest assured? It's a year later... HALP

@EA_HighCommand Any updates on this?  It's now well over a year since this was reported and apparently being investigated and yet the problem is still evident.  I lost 70 tickets earlier this evening due to the same crash happening on T6 of the GL Rey event.  All the more galling as I purchased a pack earlier today that contained 750 energy specifically to expedite the ultimate farm.  

I just changed my phone from an samsung s 8 to a samsung s 20+ with 5g,and before i did not have this problem but now is a constant problem with atleast 1 freeze per day,no other application does this,it happens on data and wifi,and i could not find any solution to this.I have the OS updated,reinstalled the application,and from what i managed to test is,the buzzing noise can start anywere in game,even at the home screen in game(at the holotables),and it will go without freezing until you go in a battle,once in battle you get maybe 20-30 seconds the it is done you can just force close,also if the buzz starts and you are in a battle already,it will take around 20 seconds before it freezes.Can we please have an update on this since it started affecting my performance in game besides the fact is very frustarting,and also i hope this does not brake my phone in the future,please let us know about this thing since it has well over an year and we have nothing so far and it is on multiple devices 

Again, same issue, still ZERO fix from the dev team...

Just lost my Rey team even before I could use a  single skill.... My lstb is ruined already, thanks.

So I'm restarting the game and am getting an "game out of sync" almost immediately.

Found this thread and came looking for answers.

This happens to me daily, game crash during battle.. phone buzzes and will not stop until I completely stop the app running.

This was getting so frustrating I was considering updating phones because of it, then I read a user with the latest Samsung S21 Ultra has the same issue..

Seems to be alot more people on Android with the issue, although I have read iPhone users get the same issue also.

This thread has been running for a long long time, no fix... so what now??

In running a Samsung S10+ 5G.

Seems to be alot worse over the past 6 months...

bro...welcome to the 5th ring of hell. there is no way out lest you think this will be fixed. lol...

@EA_HighCommand

You were digging into this back in May 2019.

2 years later and dozens of the same issue reported by multiple people... how has your digging been going? 

Have you had any traction with this yet???

Nope. 🤷

It's a joke really...

@EA_HighCommand

Have you been using a toothpick to dig over these years? 

This thread has multiple people calling foul on your app. Its all over reddit too.

Just lost my GAC again because it crashed and buzzing sound until I completely close the app.

This appears to have been fixed (for me at least).  Since the update that introduced the new-style character/ship browser, I haven't had a single crash.  Interested to know if anyone else has had the same experience.

I used to have this issue on my Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact. When I switched to my Zenfone 8 in June 1st, which has a much more powerful cpu, the issue stopped appearing.
