Game Freeze on Charging

When my phone’s battery drops to a certain level and begins charging, I experience a peculiar issue while gaming. The game gradually starts to stutter and, after a short while, completely freezes for approximately 30 to 40 seconds. Although the game eventually resumes on its own, it disconnects me from the server, seemingly interpreting the freeze as if I had closed the application. Notably, the rest of the phone’s functions and background processes continue to operate smoothly, with only the game being affected by this anomaly.

Device: Redmi Note 9 Pro Max

maybe your device is at battery save mode, check battery modes maybe this helps :)

No it’s not. I have checked every setting thoroughly.

Hi, Welcome to the community!

Did you notice if IF functionality returns immediately if you unplug your device during the appearance of the problem?

Also, did you have this problem only once, occasionally during charging, or consistently occurs whenever charging starts?

Yes it returns immediately and yes it only happens once or twice during a long haul flight

Sorry to hear of your trouble. I don’t have any definite idea, but I do have what appears to be a damaged port on my phone which will no longer offload data but can still charge the phone.

However, when I have my malfunctioning port plugged in for charge, depending on the charger I use, my device functionality is impaired (functionality is substantially frozen) to the point that I’ve given up using my device when charging.

I just bring this up because there is some overlap with what you are experiencing, though of course I don’t know the chances of my particular case applying to your situation (a likely faulty charging port, somehow affecting device functionality while connected to external power).

Functionality also returns as soon as I unplug.

It may be your phone getting hot due to the Charging this may result in decreased performance. Turn off something like Anti aliasing

Nah bro my device doesn’t get that hot that it will start to lose performance

Nah bro I don’t think it’s the charging port because I keep my phone plugged in all day and it won’t happen at any other time other than when it starts to charge.
