Tip: Sick of Temple Run Crashing, Try Using the “Back” Button Instead of “Run Again”

by: | posted 03.27.12 | Apps, News, Tips

We know that you are feverishly playing Temple Run today as it was released on Android only a few hours ago, but we also know that many of you are running into the same crashing issues that we are. If you time a jump wrong, forget to slide under a fire, or are eaten by a crocodile, your first reaction is probably to press the “Run Again” button. As one of our readers points out, pressing the “Back” button on your phone seems to be a much more stable option. It’s not flawless, but I was able to rattle off a dozen or so games without it crashing by using this little trick. And at least it’s something to tide us over while Imangi works out some of these initial launch bugs.

Cheers @NorCalDroid!

Temple Run Not Available to the RAZR and Bionic, Imangi “Hopes” to Make It Available in the “Future”

by: | posted 03.27.12 | Games, News

Temple Run was finally released on Android last night, but unfortunately, those with a RAZR or Bionic were left out of the fun. We reached out to Imangi Studios’ PR to see what the status was on bringing support to these phones and were told that they “hope to be available on those devices in the future.” They did not have a specific time frame to give us.

We are trying to figure out how the DROID 4 got the thumbs up though, when it runs essentially the same chipset as those two phones? Also, we see that the LG Spectrum, Galaxy SII, XOOM, and Tegra 3-powered Transformer Prime are all supported with their varying range of processors and screens. Someone fire up the “fragmentation!” engines…

And just like that, Temple Run is official on Android. Well, it’s not here yet, but it will be March 27 for free. So until that day, you can stop trolling the Android Market and stressing over whether or not the latest fake is real or not. Because it won’t be, again, until March 27. All good? 

Previously Thought to be Released Sometime This Month, Temple Run is Not Ready for Android Yet

by: | posted 02.27.12 | Games, News

Another update from the Temple Run team on Facebook has some people raging a bit more this Monday. Unfortunately, back in January, Temple Run was said to be ready for launch this month, but over the weekend, hopes have been crushed. The Temple Run team states that they want to make sure the experience users receive is flawless, so we can understand why they’re taking their time. According to their statement on Facebook, they are actually in beta testing right now, so we shouldn’t have too much longer to wait. In the mean time, prepare your torches and pitchforks until we have an official release date.
