Hey guys,
I've been trying to get GTA3 to run on the Tab since launch and it seems I finally found out how!
Here is what you need:
1. You need to find a way to purchase GTA3 from the market! I did this by purchasing it for my SGS2.
2. Make sure to install version 1.1 as version 1.0 crashes and causes a device reset!
3. There is no need for Chainfire3D options to be activated.
Cheers,
C.
Work ON ICS
I have test version 1.1 on My tab running ICS Alpha 3..and its work...^_^
Here the screenshot :
Bump!
I reached Staunton Island and it works just fine.
Missions are harder to complete without a mouse, but the retry system works great and it's really fun!

Working on Stock Firmware provided by Overcome
Installed GTA 3 V 1.1 this night and it worked! Though i seems it's a bit laggy but who gives a **** it works!
Im using the stock firmware provided by overcome, with root priviliges and the overcome kernel and recovery.
Hi, today I downloaded from the market the Grand Theft Auto III and downloaded the files to be able to play the game and I made it with Android 2.3.6 Stock P1000XWJQ8_P1000PHNJQ1_P1000XXJPZ with root and with stock kernel.
Note: Just install the latest GTA III app and you will be able to play the game
i'm running gta 3 on my galaxy tab (with overcome kratos rom) and its laggy as hell. even after a reboot and closing all kind of open applications/tasks it gets nearly unplayable when i enter a vehicle... too bad
a cracked one?
do you guys download crack games?? if so, can anyone give me a link for this game?a cracked one? I'm sorry if i want a crack.. I can't just afford it

Are you kidding me?
IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT, TOUGH! DO NOT ASK FOR WAREZ ON XDA
Version 1.2 works great, and with the full effect turned on
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399258 )
I'm in love again!
I use the sgsll full effects file on either Boca rc1 or icedboca
Lagfree governor, vr scheduler at 1.2 ghz
Unplayable on overcome. Hangs every few seconds and doesnt go far beyond 10fps.
I went into options and put sfx and music to 0. Now the game is playable but still not 100% smooth. Sadly not much else I can do as there's no overclocked kernel for P1010 official gingerbread rom.

Original Samsung Galaxy Tab with Stock Rom 2.3.3 Does play it well
I have Samsung Galaxy Tab with 2.3.3 ( Stock Rom ) DDJPA version recently updated from Froyo. I tried the steps, but game hangs in between. While I have all the HD gameloft games like 9mm, Nova2, MC2, MC3, Asphalt 6 Adrenaline ( all HD versions) , and all of them works flawlessly. Also I have almost 6 GB of free space on Internal Storage while my SD card also has 4 GB free.
Did anyone faced the similar problems on Stock Rom from India -DDJPA versions of Gingerbread. Please help

I contacted rockstar because of my galaxy s2 and they gave me the usual list of things to do...
First, check to verify that your device is listed as a supported device:
http://support.rockstargames.com/en...anniversary-edition-list-of-supported-devices
Unsupported devices may display poor performance or crashing. We are always working to support as many hardware types as possible, and we recommend subscribing to that article for the latest additions to supported devices. Note that Rockstar Games has not tested on jailbroken phones or custom ROMs, and we are unable to guarantee functionality on modified devices.
If your device is supported, here are some troubleshooting steps that may solve crashing issues on Grand Theft Auto III 10th Anniversary Edition:
Close Background Applications Crashing may be caused by playing GTA III while other applications are running in the background. To fix this:
Android: Use an application such as Advanced Task Killer (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rechild. advancedtaskkiller&hl=en) to minimize the number of processes running in the background while playing GTA III Reboot the Device It may also help to restart the device and run GTA III from the fresh boot with no other applications running. To reboot the device:
Android: Some phones have their own unique soft boot methods, but the safest bet is to turn the phone off, wait 30 seconds, and then turn it back on. Hard Reset the Device if Still Crashing After Rebooting
iOS and Android: Try making some room on your device if it is filled with other applications and data. In particular, this has been reported as a fix for some problems on the Galaxy S II, but may improve performance issues or crash problems on other devices as well. Redownload the Game
iOS and Android: To rule out possible data corruption, delete the game from your iOS or Android device and then re-download it from the App Store or Android Market. Be sure that there is enough space for that game and your signal is strong enough to complete the download. Update the OS/Firmware Please ensure that you are running the latest OS/Firmware on your phone or tablet.
Android: Press the "Home" button. Then press the "Menu" button (four horizontal lines, the word "Menu," or four small squares), then select "Settings." Select "About Phone." Choose "System Updates" and follow the on-screen directions to install any updates, if necessary. The lowest supported version is 2.2, but we recommend updating to the latest available. Determine if Other Applications are Causing a Conflict Occasionally, unforseen conflicts may arise between applications and uninstalling some of them may help to isolate the issue.
Android: Go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and uninstall other applications that may be interfering with GTA III. This may be particularly helpful if you are able to see in the error log (directions for recording error logs are in a later section of this article) which other Application could be running in the background, causing a problem. Restore the Device If you are definitely using a supported device and one or more of your applications is crashing consistently, try restoring your device.
Android: If your device is supported and you are crashing frequently in GTA III 10th Anniversary Edition and/or other applications, consider a factory reset. Note that you will lose data and settings. To perform a reset from the Home screen, go to Menu->Settings->SD & Phone Storage->Factory data reset->Confirm. Check the Crash Log
Android Error Log: On Android, we recommend downloading a free app such as aLogcat (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en) to monitor any errors or crashes that occur on your device. This is useful not only when submitting tickets to Rockstar for help, but also as a way to determine yourself what processes or conflicts may be causing the problem.
For more information about Android troubleshooting, please refer to http://www.android.com/.
Personally I find closing all background applications before playing helped alot and rockstar couldn't help me with error logging to see if a background application is causing the problem.

Not sure if it works at all on the Gtab but you guys need to get this working. Lots of fun so far.
Works great, I have been playing it on my G Tablet. It is so awesome to play this game on a 10" screen too. Almost feels like cheating.
I couldn't get it to install (failed to install). Tried 2 different apk's.
I've played it on my iPhone, but don't see it in my tablet's marketplace. Not sure where to look for the right apk.
Pocket Legends won't install, maybe related to Angry Birds issue?

How did you install it? I've tried on the zpad clean ROM, as well as on CyanogenROM beta 2 and 3, and although it shows up in the market and downloads, it will not install.
Possibly this is akin to the Angry Birds issue? I know it has some issues with the way the sdcard is made available on the gtablet.
I can confirm that Pocket Legends is working after the Tap UI 1.01 update
This was my go to "show off" app for my Gpad. The most current version of Pocket Legends doesnt install on my CM B2 Gpad. However, the older one installs fine and you have no problems logging in. Luckily I had a backup from my Titanium autobackups. Hmm would it be against TOS to post the APK?
If you like Pocket Legends, check this out. http://droidgamers.com/index.php/ga...ers-on-the-way-great-ready-for-more-craziness The game looks even more polished.
Works well on cyanogen beta 4. Seems to be affected by the same periodic lag that plagues all 3d games on the tab.

does anyone else experience an error when using purchased apps? on both the zpad rom and on tnt 2.02 I cannot install or run some paid apps due to market authentication errors.

I have this same problem before with cpu going 100% then serious lag. What fixed this in my defy is I downloaded sysctl from market then adjusted min free kbytes to 8192. this is the same method from another thread that discusses google maps hanging. Hope it works

update your phone to 2.3.3 new release its awesome, you wont face any lags / hangs..gingerbread is nice
fyi :: you can always go back to your original rom if you dont like it. Follow the nandroid method and you are good to go. enjoy
Defy cannot be bricked so go on try your hands on gingerbread official orange leaks now.
Reconsider it if you are really into games. My NFS and Asphalt games aren't working anymore after having Gingerbread 2.3.3. Work fine with my Froyo 2.2.2. Other games like GTracing, Angry birds, MotoGP and etc work fine..
I tried numerous ways but all failed to run the NFS and Asphalt. Thought something must have block the games from running. Hope someone have an answer for this work around method.
However, I still stick with gingerbread 2.3.3 as it simply awesome speed and overall performance. Games wise I'm not really playing them in my phone. I have PSP and PS3 to release my addicts with.
I have made it to 8192 but before what is the rate

I Am currently running Infused v2 Custom ROM on my Samsung Infuse and was able to successfully download many gameloft games without even having the initial SD files (which I couldnt do on Stock ROM.) After downloading Shadow Guardian, however it gets stuck at the loading screen and crashes my whole phone, causing a reboot.
When trying to install Backstab as well, I am stuck with "your device is not compatible with this game" although I was able to successfully install it on the stock ROM (with a downloaded apk and SD cache). Does anybody know why this is happening? I love the Infused v2 ROM but I want my Gameloft!!!
I have Splinter Cell, Fishing Kings, Asphalt, etc. installed but the games I really want won't work!!!
Thanks
I hear your pain, i have the same problem, i have Order and Chaos, and i can play it only in a froyo based rom, but for some reason gingerbread based roms are not working with these games. I have no idea why.

My first guess is it's SGH-I997R (Rogers) vs SGH-I997 (AT&T), and the whole Canadian locale thing.
Unfortunately none of the devs play Gameloft games so no way to easily debug since they are paid apps without logcats of crashes.
Hi,
Hoping someone with experience on apps and development can help.
I bought Monopoly for my Android Tablet.
If I'm running ICS, I get a connection failed when it tries to download the extra files. Basically download bar stays at NAN and times out. So I downgraded my tablet to GB and managed to install the App.
However, due to the spec of my Tablet (not great) the game crashes. Even with using Chainfire 3D drivers and tweaking. I can prolong the crash, but it does crash!
I then installed the game on my Desire HD and noticed that it was a lower spec'd version, i.e. Handset version.
So I copied the download files from my DHD to the Tablet.
The game now loads and will probably work better as it's not a HD Tablet version and uses less memory, but the text is all messed up and unplayable.
I think there should be an easy fix and just some missing files or fonts. But I don't know where to start looking.
Can someone please help? Guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kiz
Hello, I installed DraStic DS Emulator r2.1.3a and I attempted to load GTA Chinatown War with file format .nds and the app crashed. Is .nds format supported or do I need to adjust the setting configuration? Running on Note 2 N7100. Thanks.

Firstly, .nds files are rom files or games files. They only come in this format or at least this is the most common excluding zips and rars.There is a compatibility list for the emulator. Just google it. GTA isn't on there. Don't expect it to run perfectly or it to run well. It may be the best android emulator out there at the moment, but it is really new. I've been using it and it crashes for me. I'm going to guess that it's not on there because it hasn't been tested yet officially. It's one of those games that just doesn't work. Try getting it frrrom a different source; that sometimes works.
Being in the early stages that it is, there are going to be bugs. In terms of settings, there isn't much you can do. With some games, turning sound off stops them from running. I know this happens with pokemon games but it's going to vary. Sorry if this isn't much help but all we can do is wait until they bring out updates to sort out bugs like these.
Another thing you can try is updating the emulator. I believe it's now at 2.1.6.2a. This may only be bug fixes but it may fix bugs that stop the game running in the first place. It's worth a try so give it a go. Also, try looking on other forums, they may have the answer. I don't have your device so I don't know how to fix the problems you have if they're device specific.
Pls Help . Just Right I Open Drastic. It Keep Crashing And Does Not Work . Please Help
