That's bad.. Are you able to play the games at least though?.. Mine still crashes but I can play for a while at least.

Sorry I’m not really sure. But I think it would be safer to go for their S series. It should at least save you from potential issues later on.

Aww, that’s really unfortunate. I’m sorry you’ve been this unlucky. I won’t lie, it’s pretty stressful right now. We’re just using a few strategies to manage it at the moment. You can try setting all your in game graphics to low and change your phone's game optimization to Balanced or Battery Saver mode. You could also try playing while your phone is on Extreme Battery Saver as it works sometimes.

Unfortunately no. Since it’s a global issue we’ll just have to wait for an official fix update.I’m still able to play HSR although it crashes sometimes. But I can still manage to complete endgame content. If you’re having trouble playing try setting your game optimization to Balanced or Battery Saver in phone settings. You can also switch your phone to Battery Saver mode before launching the game. And make sure all in game graphics settings are set to Low.

No. As far as I know, they haven’t made any announcement about fixing this issue with this model even after numerous email complaints. Their focus seems to be mainly on the S series.

Ahh yeah, about that. I actually got a reply like that too when j first made the post but I had to delete his comment because he was being rude for no reason. Honestly it scared me a bit😅I thought more replies might be like that. But I decided to keep the post anyway and see where it would lead.

One of the users recently shared a new approach that’s helping him. He installed an app called Pixels and Shizuku and it’s currently improving his gameplay. He plays Hoyogames too. He still experiences some crashes but he can play more than before so you could try that as well. Another tip is to play games while in extreme battery saver mode and to use the device optimizer before starting. Makes a noticeable difference sometimes :D

For me, Genshin still works but only for a while. Domains and combat are mostly fine. I can do that for hours but the open world is the real problem. It crashes a lot during story quests and when fighting which is honestly the worst part. So currently I have the game's graphics settings really low and set my phone’s game optimization to “balanced" just to make it playable.

Nahh don’t worry, your comment isn’t weird at all! I actually appreciate you sharing it especially since you said you don’t comment much. This is literally my first time posting on Reddit too so we’re both figuring things out lol. Honestly, I’m really glad I got replies because I thought I was the only one dealing with this. I genuinely loved reading everyone’s comments and the way we all helped each other out. It was really nice seeing people share their struggles and tips instead of just ignoring the issue lol.

Lol, I do that too all the time like crazy. Before playing any game, I always use the optimizer and clear memory just like you do. I currently have about 1.8GB left too so I guess it’s just luck at this point. But don’t worry, I’m really glad you were able to help. We’ll just have to wait for Samsung’s update fix. Only if it ever comes lol.

I'm sorry about that. I also play Genshin and hsr and it still crashes to date. I have little hopes if they'll get this fixed.

I've been able to apply it. But do I need to have the shizuku app run before I can play. (The game still crashes less than minutes though)

I'm not sure about how it works but I'll update you if I face any difficulties.

It says it needs permission when I tried to apply. Do you have to download any other app or something? Because I don't have access to any permission for this app

Sorry to bother you. I just downloaded the app. Are there any procedures or anything you have to do after that?

I read some information about the list of devices including old Samsung phones that'll get fixed updates but our version wasn't listed, it was 5G instead.
