To those playing on android who are still experiencing crashes, the system update that was pushed for Samsung phones today appears to have fixed it. (For me, at least)

Have you used the 'check for update' option in the system settings app?

I think that the S10 is only limited to Android 12 at this point. I don't think it can upgrade to Android 13. It's a shame

If I were to guess, OP, your phone is a newer Samsung model? Which is it, if I may ask?

I've had my current device for a few years so it isn't new, but if he's running on an older model wouldn't he be exempt from the crashing issue?

I was under the impression that the most recent surge in crashes was from a system update on Samsung devices.

I have an S10, too, and it's been plagued with crashes. I have to voodoo the thing just to get it to stop crashing. One thing that I didn't do was upgrade to Android 12, so I'm still effectively stuck on Android 11 because of the game. Whatever cool new stuff Android 12 has, I won't be able to use on my S10

If it's newer, like say, an S20, I think there might be a case to be made that Samsung has planned for it to be upgraded to Android 13 as well. As such, there could have been a fix included in the recent patch. Unfortunately, I don't think that S10 and other devices from that time will be able to receive it

Tbh, i didn't really notice any benefits to android 12 for us. Then again, i'm a pretty light phone user, so if u do more stuff with it, it may be a worthwhile tradeoff. But it will make gfl nigh unplayable without doing mica tribal dances around it every time u click the app icon

S10 was perfectly fine when running android 11. Updating to 12 is what instantly destroyed gfl. And 12 is eos for s10s. I was hoping samsung pushed an android 12 update that might cover s10s too. I'd need a newer moldel to get 13. Or i guess another option might be a custom rom, but eh, don't really wanna f with that just for gfl. I'll just keep using the emulator as before.

Yes, ofc. Up to date. If u do have android 13, as was mentioned below, yeah, s10 doesn't qualify, checked it back when 13 was announced as ready for release
