Model Number: SM-J510F*
Location: Portugal
Wifi: Yes
Cellular: 4G
Data Provider: MEO
OS: Android
OS version: 7.1.1

So currently I can't install OSRS on my phone. I have all the requirements needed and my country is not on the not avalable ones list, so isn't my phone. What could be causing the game to display as not compatible with my phone? Thanks for any help you provide. (ans soz for any grammar mistakes as english is not my first language xD)

I was a beta tester since the open beta where I joined on the first batch of downloads since then everything was working fine but now that the app was fully released it is saying that the app isn't compatible with my phone which I find weird since i have the beta still installed and it runs perfectly yes it heats up a bit but all you have to do is take your case off and it's ok it works fine. Which is also the reason i haven't left the beta programme. Since it does asy it isn't compatible with the device I'm pretty positive that it wouldn't let me download it again

For those of you posting about the Samsung Galaxy J5, there's some information about that here:

https://twitter.***/JagexRoq/status/1057665023030558720

Quoted from the tweet:
"Hey Ruben, i did a bit of digging and found out the reason why. The device you have will no longer be applicable to the release version of the game due to some issues we experience with that device. We looking to try and fix them before we think about re-enabling that device." Glad to be of service

Data Provider: Proximus
OS: Android
OS version: 6.0.1

How is the app performing for you?:
It is not, I cant find it on the play store itself so when I try to open it trough the website it sais that my device is not compatible, even tough I have android 6.0.1 and 2gb or ram. I would really like to know why I cant play, I have been waiting so long for mobile so it really sucks that I cant play it, knowing that my phone probably would be able to run it. So I would really like to have some answers for my problem and hopefully a fix. thanks for reading

Ps: On earlier forum comments, I have seen someone using a motorola G2 and he could play :/

I actually play old school runescape,but my problem is that the game lags like hell. Literally 1fps even in the login screen, I waited for so long to play on my phone since I don't have a PC, and it really sucks that I can't play it...By the way my phone has 2gb of ram in general but only like 1.2gb can be used.
Also the sound plays totally fine and does not lag in any way

well. aside from log in issues, any connection disruption results in no longer being able to log in. world changing has the same results. usually I can only play on the first world chosen for me.

Device name: Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation
Model Number: Doesn't say in phone, but guessing from W*kiped*a I'll say XT1550
Location: New Zealand
Wifi: Yes
Cellular: 4G LTE
Data Provider: Spark
OS: Android
OS version: 6.0.1

The app doesn't show up on the app store on my phone, and when I check on pc it says that my device is not compatible with the app. It'd be nice to know what the device compatibility ratings actually are, seeing as officially it's just Android 5.0, which apparently is not the case.

EDIT: Had a quick scroll through the forum, seems to be an exclusive issue with moto G3s. reported to be compatible with G1's, G2's, Z's, and E's. The G1 and G2 in particular are older, are less up-to-date, and have worse hardware, so what gives?

EDIT2: The RS3 beta does seem to be compatible

I've played since open beta, for around 3 months or so. I was playing on a Galaxy J7 and my experience was great. Did everything from killing cows to Zulrah and got my fire cape. I've just switched to this phone a few days ago and I'm having issues with my fps. My fps dip when i open a bank, in heavily populated areas (expected), when zoomed out, or in some areas such as the Catacombs of Kourend, and while using multi-combat or using the toxic staff (cant think of what its called). For some reason when I multi-task while I'm doing most of these things (such as reply to a message or switch apps) my fps doubles and everything seems flawless for a little while until it dips again in a few minutes. I consider this phone an upgrade, and it shouldnt be having these issues. It runs other more demanding games just fine. I've searched everywhere and cant find a solution to this issue. Phone over-heating is also bot an issue. Please help!!!
