Android behavior changed when starting game?

I noticed this too. I hope it's permanent.

As a feature of Android is to eliminate un-needed background apps when the resources are needed, I believe that would have an effect on this for you.

On another note, I keep getting crashes. Oddly enough, it crashes twice, then runs great for the rest of my session, even if it includes visiting all friends. Weird?

It's a nexus 7 (2012) running Kk444.

But the tests were only confirming what others have reported, I was tracing the conditions.

As long as you leave it in recent apps list, and reopen it from there, it seems to resume from where you left it.

I hope this change is permanent too. The FG game resumes without even showing the splash screen first. I appreciate this when I accidentally hit the android home button.

Think twice before updating to Lollipop 5.0.2.
I've got the same tablet and the main thing I use it for is TSTO. Therefore, I was pretty unhappy when the game started running really slowly (not all the time, but most of the time) after the Lollipop upgrade. I downgraded back to 4.4.4, but this was not easy.

ios has it too now with the 4.13.2 update from yesterday

I did the exact same thing!

Lollipop was a crash fest. I blew that out and gave CM11 a try. I really liked the extra features, but it was a little too laggy, so i went back to 4.4.4 Lollipop may be great for newer devices but not this one.


Happy tapping!
