[Q] Download games as Xoom for transformer on Gameloft

Ok.. so right now gameloft is offering games for 99 cents. The only way to get this deal is by following this link.
I guess I can't post the link.. head over to droid life to find the link...
However, you can only do this on your device. When I click on the link from my transformer it my device is not compatible with any games. How can I make GameLoft think I have a Xoom or something like that?
I have tried changing the device type but I loose the special pricing.
Any ideas?

Ok, great! So how does one trick the site from your tablet?

Gameloft for Android devices is so frustrating. I WANT to give them my money, but there are so many issues with purchasing and using their games on android devices. When they had a sale on ipad games the other day, I picked up a whole bunch because I knew there wouldn't be any problems.

Yeah it is kind of irritating for me as well. I have a the Transformer and I have a captivate (running cyanogenmod 7) and I can't download anything from their mobile store to get the .99 games they were offering.
Seriously frustrating. I want to spend money with them but can't. I have a tablet and a phone that both have virtually the same hardware and os as other phone/tablets that can be used to purchase and download games. What is the deal with that?

Look on the XDA Nook Color - Apps forum (Gameloft). There's a post on how to configure to buy on Gameloft.
It seems that you can choose India / Other telco and select Acer Iconia A500 and it will let you download games for your TF.
Asphalt 6HD works, Starfront Collision does not. Its a mixed bag at best.
Gameloft should get smart and get these on the Google Market. They'd make some SERIOUS money. I think they're telco agreements are locking them out for now.

Sonic 4 Episode I R800x problem?

So with Episode 2 now officially available, I wanted to load up Episode 1, b/c there's some connectivity bonuses, and when I go to the Play store to download Ep1 to my play, it says the game isn't compatible? What?? I have an R800x. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

I dont think it was ever released officially for the Play. I know, it makes no sense to release part II for the Play but not part I.
There are other ways to get it (and it does run fine), but I say support those game makers that you can.

That makes no types of sense. Wow, Sega.
I bought it and played it on my TF101 before I sold it, so I have a TB backup of the app, but whenever I try to play it on my Play, the movement physics are a bit wonky. Is this how it should be?

No, I have a copy on my Play and it runs very well. Some stages have a little bit of slow down but it gets right back up to speed most of the time.
I also bought it legitimately on the Market for my Tablet S

I bought it for my r800i from the play store

See, I figured this should be true. Have any r800x users been able to download it?

how did u do that? i tried too but i couldnt play it...

If it wasn't made immediately obvious by now, the problem here is that SEGA only allows R800i users to play Sonic 4 Ep. I, and likewise - it's just one build.prop edit away.
I've notified them on multiple occasions; SEGA's being absolutely resilient to fix this issue.

Dead trigger

Has anyone played dead trigger and if so how are the graphics

I have dead trigger modded for the tegra 3 graphics on my tf101. Looks great! Im pretty impressed actually.
And after i stopped drooling over the graphics i found out the game is fun too.

I got dead trigger for free today so check your tab and see if it is free too

yes dead trigger is free now

Was able to download this last night for free.

Updated to 1.1.0. The graphics hack still works and more cool stuff.

That's it. Remember to restart the game and not just resume it. Remove it from recent apps then run the game.

Love how they make it seem like the ultra settings are tegra 3 when its just a setting that is preventing non-tegra 3 devices from playing at max settings.

Slightly unrelated quasi-rant
It is a shame Dead trigger is now free. The alleged reason it went free was the level of piracy on android.
They said they rather leave it as free to play than charge, since they were not making any money out of it.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/appsblog/2012/jul/23/dead-trigger-android-free-piracy
Now, if that is really true, that is a shame.
I was also reading the Instapaper case and found out that the developer of Instapaper is making 6 digits annual profit from the app sales alone, while Papermill developers said they would need around 5 years to pay off dev costs.
http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2012/01/31/146152273/the-tuesday-podcast-the-app-economy
http://www.papermill.me/firstweeks/
Now, I don't care if one agrees with papermill's developer approach of blaming the users or not. My point is: Android installed base is huge. A 99 cents app should not go free due to piracy on a universe of 250M+ users.
I think this points to a fundamental difference between ios users and android users, in which ios users are used to pay premium prices for their apps.
Although i still find hard to believe, in mathematical terms, that Madfinger was really not making any money at all from Dead Trigger. Too large of a userbase to simply not make any money at all.

I have big problems with this game and with Shadowgun too. Both games freezing and very often shake screen too. I cannot play some level without freeze. I wrote to support but without any reaction. I pay and now is free. Never more any game from this terrible studio. :thumbdown:

Google Now

I'm sure i saw a video of google now being used and it was asked "what score was the Lakers game last night" or something along those lines and the answer came up on the card. How do i replicate this? preferably for football matches.

If you mean REAL football (i.e your in the UK) then it doesn't support it yet, can only get up american scores atm

Yeah, i'm in the UK. Thanks for the answer

Seems kinda hit and miss what Google Now gives you cards to i think...
It gives me cards every now and again for Premier League updates (upcoming match/latest result).
As you can tell, I'm in Luxembourg, but have language settings set to English UK so.

In the us here, it gives nice cards and speech for baseball but can't seem to get them for American football. Also, I could have sworn I saw a demo where the voice command was used to turn off WiFi, but I can't seem to get that to work either.

i also can't get it to give me american footbal scores....hoping it is because we are still in pre-season and they will work during regular season.
and FWIW, i cannot get it to turn stuff on/off. hoping that comes with 4.1.2 or something.

Scores cards on Google Now
It appears the cards come up only when relevant. For NFL scores and schedules, I wish the cards were up a few days beforehand to prepare for the next weeks games. The preferences won't even let me update my teams in the settings, it was greyed out, but now just baseball. It's a little frustrating. The video demo shows all kinds of cards in use. I'm not impressed right at the moment.

I'm in the UK and all the Premier League teams are working fine except the newly promoted teams. As a West ham fan this is as annoying as our team has been playing so far! :crying:

How have you got it to work?

Just search for the team you want and as long as when the Google search comes up it has a list of a few previous and current matches then Google now should remember the team and show current scores. I can get most the premier league teams up.

Thanks, will try

Give it some time. Took about 5 tries for the tigers card to show up after I started using it. I have faith it will work as advertised once regular season starts. Just ask the score for your team and when the next game is a couple times and it will stick eventually

My Little Pony Friendship is Magic (AVAILABLE NOW, FREE!)

Yeah so... I might be the only person here who's looking forward to this game. There's no official release date available yet, but Gameloft has announced that it will be available 'later this year' and will be on both iOS and Android.
From what I can tell it looks to be a city builder type game. Playing mini games to earn points, then using those points to buy houses, ponies, items...so on and so forth.
So my questions to you all is: Are you excited for this game? Do you think It'll satisfy My Little Pony fans? Will you be buying this? & If so how much are you willing to pay?
I personally think I will be a good game if they do 2 simple things. Listen to what the fans have to say, and have it reflect future episodes, meaning if new ponies make their appearance in season 3, I think Gameloft should add them into the game and to do as much as possible to have the game reflect the TV show. If they keep the updates coming this game should have some lasting appeal & replay value.
Check out the iPad game play demo and let me know what you think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlBInHiJ-74

As a fellow brony, this excites me. /)
Like you said, as long as Gameloft listens to what the fans have to say. And of course new ponies and cannon names and the whatnot. And I hope that they include some of the maybe not so well known background ponies. Such as Lyra, Bon Bon, and Dr. Whooves, etc.. I'd probably pay anywhere between 5 and 10 dollars. Depending on how much content is actually in the game.

Possibly....even if I stopped watching it after season 2 episode 1....I still read the fanfics though lol.

Thanks for the heads up, my wife loves games like this and the more cutesy the better
Edit: just watched the video, no way will this run on her ****ty wildfire s

They could make great use of the Xperia Plays touch pads on this game, instead of touch swiping the screen to navigate you could just use the touch pads. And the mini games could make great use of the D-pad. The game has huge potential hopefully they put effort into this instead of just selling the name and making a quick buck.

OMG! I LOVE PONIES!!!!
Must buy, must have!
Oh wait. Not for Android.

What is it with ponies?

The game seemed to run rather slow on my r800x, when scrolling.

I've been playing for about 12 hours now, runs flawlessly 98% of the time.
Running on my 800X. Pretty entertaining none the less.

Lol thats awesome

The only 'major' issue I've come across is the inability to connect to Gameloft & stay connected.
It's a flaw in the game, I expect this to be fixed pretty soon considering most challenges have to do with connecting to gameloft and interacting with other ponies.
All in all a pretty good game tho, I've played it more than Halo 4 so far...

Lol, you just made me download the game Xperia-player

Do you feel forced to make in app purchases or can you play the game fine without? I've only started really but read negative reviews stating this.

things get sort of expensive later down the road, but they don't force it on you. I'm level 23 and I haven't spent a dollar yet. As long as you manage your in game money you should be fine.

Thanks for the answer. The game isn't too bad. Does it ever feel like a grind?

Not really, after you hit level 20 everything you need is pretty much there. I currently have 35,000+ bits right now and that number increases every 3 minutes or so. I've also done all the available 'challenges' for the time being (besides the GL ones obviously)
So yeah hopefully we'll see an update soon...
