Settings?

Is this a bug anyone else has encountered? It just randomly turns off and its not because the i turned it off. Some things i noticed thou is it only happens while playing this game and unfortunatly this is the only reliable device i have that i can use, so its not like i can try it on another phone or tablet. It also happens on an alt i play, the sound will suddenly stop working, but when I log off and come back on its fine. There are a lot of other little bugs too that are fixed using the same method, like, i cant target someone sometimes or touch my pet (and u can imagine how that might effect pvp), but when i do a log off and come back it works again. I found this cure all exsists for a number of issues like when weapon is on auto fire, auto fish, auto chop, auto mine.. i logg and come back and its temporarly fixed.

As i play i notice more to it like my keyboard still makes typing sounds although the music has stopped. I think the sound effects stop also, but im not sure they do (i'll try to make more observations) but when it happens i cant generate effects sspontaniously so im not sure, but once i think i heard a cow moo.

Should i unistall the app and reinstall it again? That might be the only real trouble shooting thing i can think of worth trying, but thats why im asking. if its an issue that should be investigated i wanted to point it out to be fixed. Thank you!

As a first investigation step, please try cleaning the app cache and observing if it's helping :)

I missed this thread when it was originally posted.
Hope you got it worked out.
Clearing the cache was a good idea; also, you could reinstall too.
The point of the green devils, although not really helpful, is true and even kinda funny.

I am not really tech savvy; but I do have experience with games.
Typically, bugs like this can be caused by having an under-spec device (which is unlikely with FT); it can even be caused by lag.
I myself get some wifi performance spikes, which cause all sorts of bugs, including the ones you describe.
How good is your internet connection? Can you test that?
Also a possibility, is that you have apps running in the background... this could cause symptoms similar to an under-spec device.
Check to see what you have running, and close anything you do not need.

Other than that, maybe it could be a conflict with your exact device?
I really couldn't say... but if you let us know what you're using, maybe it could help.

EDIT: See also, Ryaca's reply directly below this post, as it could be a possibility as well. Thanks Ryaca.

Also, try. Not having too many things downloaded to your device like music, pictures, apps, and videos etc.
