I'm experiencing problems I hadn't experienced before with most OpenFeint games. I posted this in the general Android Q&A without a single response so I'm hoping maybe this would get more attention here at the Galaxy S forum.

Examples of these games I purchased that used to work fine are

Fruit Ninja
MiniSquadron
Flick Kik Football

These all used to work before but now no matter how many times I've reflashed my phone I always run into issues.

My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S running Froyo JPP via Doc_Rambone's ROM v7.6.2

They ALL encounter the same problem. If I'm connected to WiFi and I try to run any one of these games, OpenFeint as usual will attempt to load prior to the game's main screen. This would happen smoothly before..I get taken to the OpenFeint screen where I am asked to log in or play without using OpenFeint sure no problem..but now whenever I start up any OpenFeint game that loads up OpenFeint at the start I wind up in some sort of boot loop (?!) First it's the intro scene, then it flickers between that and the "Loading Feint" or whatever message, then white, then the intro scene again, then the "Loading Feint" again...and so on... OpenFeint never loads and even if I get to the main screen of the game I can't play cus it's still looping to the white screen and the "Loading Feint" screen... This is kinda really irritating when I want to use OpenFeint.. :| I know this is a problem with OpenFeint because when I turn wifi off, the games run fine again since OpenFeint won't try to load anymore...

Just to give a better description of what exactly happens, I will attempt to run Fruit Ninja while connected to wifi now to describe exactly what happens...

Press Fruit Ninja icon..
Black screen....
Half Brick loading screen for a split second
Black screen...
Half Bring loading screen again..
Black screen...
Main Fruit Ninja screen
Black screen...
Loading Feint with a Split scond of white screen
Black Screen again
Half Brick again...
Black screen since phone goes into the lock screen..
Unlock
Fruit Ninja main screen is squeezed into the top half of the screen, bottom half is just black. :|
I attmept to slice the fruit that says OpenFeint
Loading Feint..
Black screen...
Half Brick...

etc...

Any ideas of what's causing this problem and how to remedy this? I can live without OpenFeint but that shouldn't have to be my only solution. :|
