[Q] Gameloft data issue (legit) - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

I bought a few games when Gameloft was doing the £1 a throw deal.
All working ok but i got round to starting the last one i got today, NOVA2.
Problem is, when i launch & it requests to download the further 403mb it quits soon after with the error message " The download could not be completed successfully, do you want to try again? "
Doesn't matter how many times I try i get the same error & it usually just starts from the beginning.
I emailed Gameloft support with my receipt but all they did was send me a link to redownload the apk, which hasn't solved the problem at all.
Anyone had the same issue?

Iv got a few gameloft games installed with online capabilities on them and for some reason i keep getting thrown off the multiplayer services when playing them, so maybe it has something to do with their servers?

I doubt it, seems to bug out on me at the same point every time, like, 30seconds into the download.

I had a similar problem. It should continue the download rather than restart from the begining. In the end when it asked me do I want to retry I selected no then restarted the app.
Once you start playing there should be no further issues like this.

Tried that dude but it does bug out literally every 15-30seconds or so, and does restart from scratch after a few tries.

make a post on the gameloft forums, they will then ask for proof of payment then send you the fixed/updated file via email.
I've had 3 games with issues, all work fine now doing the above
http://forum.gameloft.com/index.php

Happens to me all the time too. I generally reboot each time it stalls, and if it still won't work I remove all of the downloaded data from SD card & start afresh.
Pain in the a$$ for sure, I still have Backstab to reinstall & my latest game Starfront finally installed but quits after the intro move

this has happend to me, i got around it by. deleting the SD data for the game off the SD card /sd/gamesloft/games/, then going to manage applications, and deleting the data for the app, then launch the game and do the whole download again

I had that issue but for me it turned out that a 32gb memory card id bought was a fake. fine when I went back to the 16gb that came with the phone.

Tried that, still bugging.

Well, I got an email from Gameloft, basically saying that it must be a problem with my handset, so they've kindly offered to give me a replacement game...
Not much good seeing as I bought all of their games when they were a quid!
I just want to play NOVA2, boo hoo!!

I've tried deleting the NOVA2 folder from the gameloft/games folder, any othrr data i should delete.
Ive also deleted the game data from app settings, uninstalled the game & reinstalled, but to no avail.

i have the same prob with real football 2 any one know a solution?

Gameloft issue

Ok so i have a t-mobile htc sensation 4g but when i try and download asphult 5 which i own form the market it installes percect but the game wont download the files it errors every time at 1/4 through the bar and says no internet even though im on wifi?
even on 3g it does the same thing
gonna test diffrent sdcard soon
diffrent sd card same error
I've been having trouble trying to get their site to recognize my Sensation. I have an account and either manually setup my device or have it try using the phone number. Doesn't seem to keep. Trying to download a game from them (Let's Golf 2) and the text link never let's me download, just redirects to their default site page.
Also been trying my cracked versions which worked on previous HTC Snapdragon procs. Most don't end up running either due to some type of crash or the resolution difference.
Did any of you try Order & Chaos online If it doesn't work it's a deal breaker for me

[Q] Crash Bandicoot doesn't download from server anymore?

Hello guys,
I don't have crash bandicoot pre-installed on my sd card no more. I'd like to try out using the Native psx emulator developed by yifanlu, but when i run my crash bandicoot, it seems to get stuck on "Updating" and never changes.
I've tried the US version as well, same result. Left it on for over 2 hours and still showing Updating page and nothing moves...
Anyone have any idea what i can do?
Thanks!

Maybe you will have more luck, if you push it back to /system/app where it came from rather than just installing
Thanks for the tip, but I didn't realize that within system/app I already have the same file that you uploaded. So I installed it from that location, but when I try to open it. All it keeps saying is updating... And I don't think it changes? Is it meant to change page to say maybe downloading or something? Is it meant to take ages to download?
This is getting quite annoying =.=
Anymore tips? Or should I just keep leaving it on the updating page?

Oh really? Then that means I seriously have something wrong with mine...that's alright thanks for your help! I will try and figure it out...hopefully.
Thanks again!
Any luck on the stuck at updating ? Im having same problem and it will never stop updating!!! Just sits at updating screen for hours
Problem Solved
I went back through and started replacing .apk's i had deleted. I even tried installing crash different ways, put it back into system an still no good, installed to sd card didnt work, installed to system normally didnt work. So when the Syphon Filter didnt work for me either, and I had all the sd files for syphon filter already, but even that said updating. It wasnt crash. There is an app called "preinstalledservice.apk" and idk why but none of the sony playstation game apps would work without it. Just put that .apk back into system apps and change permissions on it. Everything works great now, oddly enough the preinstalledservice.apk also has a weird looking icon... I attached it below, almost like its smiling with razor like teeth just because it knew I was gonna need it back in system lol....
Is your phone unlocked? I read somewhere that if your phone is unlocked then you lose drm support...since unlocking my phone I have not been able to download any new xperia games.....

Interesting...... On another forum someone mentioned how Sony said a long time ago the emulator will work on Tegra 2 (which it does, as in the Sony S1 tablet). However you would think ok then why wouldn't it work on any Tegra 2 phone, well the Playstation Certification of course. But what could that entail? Simply a build.prop modification? Based on this maybe not, maybe this .apk is specific to hardware to make sure that its running on PS Certified devices only.
Just my theory....

I would have to agree with you because without that apk I couldnt run anything. And when Syphon Filter 1 or 3 opened and froze at updating , I knew it had to be something missing on my phone because the Syphon Filters weren't released for xperia play on verizon, So they didnt need to update anything because I already had the files needed and they were modified to work on any xperia play model/carrier.

Your wifi needs to disconnect then reconnect.
I was/am having wifi problems.
It still says connected but doesn't work. I think it happens when the phone goes to sleep.
Ask Gameloft for support. They've been known to give free games to some people who have had problems as well.
i tried everything i even tried the cracked version for some of gameloft games
still same problem
i tried to disconnect and reconnect again but with no luck
i sent them couple of mails but they didn't reply ?
i guess i will have to wait
thank you my friends for trying to help me
appreciate your help
Are you using an ad blocker? if so that could be the problem.
Try revertig it if u use one.
Or could you're router firewall be blocking the port used by gameloft to download the game
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
Sometimes these games just act stupid. After my last restore I had to retry the download for Asphalt 6 like 50 times, but then Eternal Legacy worked the first time and Sacred Odyssey took like 3 tries.
Gameloft doesn't respond to emails for some reason. I had to call them. They also gave me free games for clicking download to many times and not going into My Downloads first. If you try to re-download the game t charges you again. So technically I did pay for them. But they were nice about it. (Accept they wouldn’t just refund it )
i have the same problem
I am having the same problem with all of the gameloft games... Has anyone come up with the solution yet ?
Might as well be SD card issues. You could try a to back-up your information and format the SD card.
phone is brand new, sd card brand new.. even so, tryed formating, tryed factory reset.. nothing helps
i have the same problem with modern combat 3. i paid for it . but i can't download data to play. any solution? thx
Had the same problem
What i had to do is to download the game data on my computer and copy it to my android/data for it to work/

[Q] An annoying problem with Shadowgun.

Hello people.
I have a friend's HTC Inspire 4G, he wanted me to install Shadowgun, which I did. I downloaded the 1.1.0 APK version. When I executed it, it began to download the required data and when it finish I began to play. Everything worked perfect, but when I reset the phone, the game ask me for download the data again... and when I check the
Code:
Android/data/
folder on SD-Card, I can see the Shadowgun data in a
Code:
com.madfinger.shadowgun
I can't remember the exact name. The thing is that folder have 1GB of data... meaning the Shadowgun data is really there. So I have no idea why the game ask me for download again.
Is this a common issue? How do I fix it?
Best regards.
maybe go to the market and redownload a fresh copy, possibly corrupted download?

it can still have a file corruption, wasnt trying to be mean to you. just saying its probably the easiest thing to try first before delving deeper into it. i did search around and went through market comments looking for a similar problem and couldnt find any. so that brought me to the conclusion that theres possibly something wrong with the apk. one flipped bit in a file can show at install or it could keep u from viewing the ending of a game.
at first i thought maybe you got the THD version of it but seeing as that one was 1.0.1 and you mentioned you had 1.1.0 that wasnt the case. Got to start somewhere with troubleshooting
Question...where did you download shadowgun from? If you did from the market then try emailing the devs. The contact info will be on the market page for shadowgun.
If you downloaded it from another place, and did it for free, please stop asking for help. That is a paid app. You should not be able to receive help here on xda for paid apps that were pirated.
I got your 10 char right here

I know you wasn't mean with be bro, in fact I thank you, certainly you're the only posting here besides me.
OK I know it's not a corrupted APK because in my Galaxy S II (i9100) I have the same APK with the same data, and it goes like heaven, so I don't know.

<Mod Edit> Deleted contents. Condoning Warez, violation of XDA Rules.
If you are having the same issue then why do you need the files? Just download them and back them up yourself.
<Mod Edit. Deleted.>
Take Notice on Warez
I believe this same (edited) post asking for data files, was deleted from the General forum earlier.
And the same outcome. It is strictly against XDA rules, to ask for or condone the practice of sharing PAID Apps. Violations result in infraction points, and ultimately a ban from XDA.
Whether you paid for the app, is not a concern. In this case, your first avenue is the Dev of the program. NOT asking members to upload data files. You KNOW the rules, paid app or not.
I should hope I won't need to post again on this topic.
yeah .. i have same problem..

hi, its my first time here in the forum and i have read your problem with shadowgun.. i have also htc inspire phone installed with shadow gun.. i got this in android.mob.org at first, i downloaded this game in the torrent but i came up with the same problem with you. so here what you are going to do
1. download shadowgun to the mentioned site(put the cache file of the game into any folder of ur device but do not put it directly to sdcard/android/data/ bcoz at first launch it will be deleted)
2. then install apk
3. set your phone to airplane mode
4. then run the game
5. then press begin download (it will show some unknown javascript and let it
6. minimize the game.. do not close
7. copy the the files inside the com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder into the sdcard/android/data there is already a folder there with the same name with that folder.
8. open the minimized game shadowgun and it will now run smoothly
i hope it helped...

[REQ] Gear VR File!

Ya so...
I wont go into details (seriously, this post seems long but its 1/5th what I sent to Oculus Support), but the basics are got a new Gear VR to complete my set (Note 4/Gear S/Gear Circle/Gear VR), plug it in, it does initial setup install, then "Install VR Apps" DIES IN A FIRE...
Or more to the point all the installations fail, in the notifications area when I click on the failed message it gives me an update required message for Oculus System Activities, I hit the update, it seems to start downloading com.oculus.systemactivities but once it finish's it doesnt seem to actually install...
Tried factory resetting my phone as well this evening, no joy...
I have a ticket into Oculus but with the posts in the Oculus forum's about replys from them and other members replys... figured I would post here!
IF ANYONE WITH A GEAR VR THAT WORKS CAN GO INTO APPS MAKE SURE THEY HAVE Oculus System Activities, PLEASE send me the com.oculus.systemactivities apk file...
Either way, thanks as well

I forgot to note I had factory reset my phone and started from scratch!
Needless to say, I did see someone mentioning something about Facebook buying Oculus, however I seem to have Happily put it out of my mind (cannot stand facebook), went to all 3 facebook apps force stopped, cleared updates and cleared data, then tried again...
TA FRACKING DA! Its too late for me to play with it tonight, but I will tomorrow...
but SERIOUSLY, whats happened with developers who don't, 1 list dependencies, and 2, build warnings in... I recalls apps where I would try to run and they would say "you need this app" or "you have disabled this needed app" or "this app failed to start and is needed, clear cache"... now you just get unhelpful error reports or most of the time, nothing happens to let you know something isnt working right!
Needless to say, I don't need the file, but Ill still post it here later in the case someone else needs it...
