[Q] Android Market vs Xperia Play App

Right now I'm a little bit confused. When I slide out the gamepad and the Xperia Play App appears, I've got access to all games developed to XP. In the top right corner there is a link to the Android Market where it lists the "Xperia Play Optimized" Apps.
Here's my question, why there are some games there are listed on the Android Market that do not appear in the XP App? For example Baseball Superstars 2011, just to mention the first I found in the list.
I understand why some games don't appear on Android Market (ex. Gameloft's), but the opposite I can't understand why.
This is confusing and doesn't make much sense. Not to mention the PS Pocket games, if this is a Playstation certified device, PS games should be the first to appear when the gamepad is open.
I end with a suggestion, why not reunite all games together when the slide is open, PS Pocket included.

And that is, not counting the PlayNow market. Sony should cut on the different markets' malarky.

Yes, I forgot the Play Now market. For me it's just another useless app on my phone.

I got rid of that play now piece of ****, yeah I dunno, it would have been better to have the slide out with XP games on one tab down the bottom and PS1 games on the other, and in order to buy more games, have a button in the top right (like now)! Then do away with the 2 other markets...!

I bought morden combat 2 on my old phone thur market and when I try to search for it in market its not there anymore only in xperia play market which there makin me buy again is there a way around that

To show up in the Xperia Play app directly, app developers need to submit their apps directly to Sony Ericsson. That's why not all apps in the Market show up.

E-mail Gameloft?

I guess it's because the version you buy in the Xperia Play market is the Xperia Play optimized one, and the non-optimized versions will not appear anywhere.

Apple and Android market the crap out of how many millions of apps they have.
Truth is, most of them are useless.
Probably 99.99% of them are total crud

Yeah, I thought it was something like that. Shame on the developers then

[Q] asphalt 6 won't work

I got asphalt 6 last night and I downloaded the extra data, and I was playing it for about an hour. Today, everytime I try to run it, it immediately force closes. I've tried different kernels, rebooted, etc.
Anyone have experience with this problem? It is a gameloft game, and I am running CM7 nightly 87 (was running same nightly last night when I installed it and played it).

I am having the same issue. I have not found a fix yet myself for cm7... Hopefully some1 smarter than myself can figure this out.

I got mine working. I received this from gameloft after waiting almost a week.
To have the game work properly, please follow these steps:
- Uninstall the game
- Delete the SD data saved on the card (the folders below)
o Example (For Hawx): SDCard\gameloft\games\Hawx
- Install the game from this link: http://dl.gameloft.com/cm/t0/0qziO3AoypU/Asphalt6Adrenaline.apk
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

When I download the apk from that link you provided, it allows me to install it (yes, I uninstalled the original asphalt 6 + data beforehand), but then when the application starts, it says, "This is not an original copy of Asphalt 6"

Same problem here can't get it to work

[Q] need for speed shift problem

I bought need for speed shift off of the android market but the xperia play buttons aren't working with the game. what should I do?

oh my God did you read anything I said? I said ever since flashing to stock u.k. 2.33 the get games/xperia play games application doesn't work. when I click on a game there is just takes me the general website. for example if I click on asphalt 6 it just takes me to gameloft. com. same thing with EA games.

I would email them and tell them you have an Xperia play.they should send you a code to download from their website

that's the thing when I try to go to their website on my play it says my handset is not supported.
How do I contact EA mobile?

They are in Japanese and upon installing and loading it does perform a Square Enix market check which I have not been able to get around.
Hoping that others maybe be able to find a way around that check.

If there is a god, we will be able to get these working and translate the games our damn selves!

I find it funny that I had to use a vpn to make it look like I was in Japan, then use market enabler to make it look like I was on the Docomo carrier just to download the apks only to have it do another check after you install..... guess they had me or others like what I did in mind.

For those interested here is the sign up page for the square enix market. Unfortunately it its Japanese and if you try to do a Google translate on the page it will mess up the site works.

Just wanted to let you all know people are at work on bringing tmout the FF to the masses in English by porting the iPhone English to the FF games. Can't give a time frame as I am not the one or ones working on it. I just got a hold of the apks. And I cannot say what FF will be going with first. Just simply being a messenger right now. So don't shoot me.

I'm not sure, but those games was released in iPhone time ago.

that is correct, they were released first on iOS and are now in Japan only slowly being released to android. I just happend to get extremely lucky in getting past the Square Enix Region check and was able to download the APKs, the additional SD files for each game is another story, that is being worked on and hope to have goo news shortly... cross your fingers ya'll!!!!

I think but I don't know if possible that someone must pick the files from the iPhone version and check if exists a file with the translation.

How can i download the SD files??? I don't know how to play those games. Anyone can help me???
Thanks

Oh god, why can't they just bring chrono trigger to the NA market. It's like they just don't want my money. Thanks for the apk's OP!
EDIT: if someone finds a way to get around the square enix store pop-up, PLEASE post it here!

I am working on trying to find a way around all that but its proving to be a booger.
Also here is the link to my other thread and in it I have a video link that shows off the G-Gee market Japan/Korea released only game of King of Fighters Android.... the thing that urks me the most is that K of F is in English..... sigh

The main task for now is to find the cache (SD data)
All SquareEnix games that do not require the cache is working.
Japanese server, we are not allowed to download the cache, it must find other ways ...

Actually since i posted this thread I have been able to download and playt many G-Gee games including K of F. Problem is that G-Gee does not use apks for their games, it uses a proprietary software to play the games, all games are run through the G-Gee market in order to play... I have done many videos since this thread started...

This thread about SquareEnix Games, and theirs Market.
At the moment we can play only in Final Fantasy I and 774 Death because in them all the data included in the apk.
Not available for us a Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy III, Chaos Rings, Chaos Rings Omega... etc.
And the only chance to play in them (except for the probability of their occurrence outside of Japan) - to find a cache (downloaded data) of these games.
And I ask you, if you can find (or download) the data, please let us know.

This is what I use to access the Square Enix Market and the downloaded files, if I am not able to get them from my friend in Japan.

Before I used the above I was unable to download any of the Square Enix APKs, used this about 2 weeks ago to get all the Square Enix apk games... FF!, FF2, Chaos Rings, etc.... I will first wait to hear back from my friend but if I do not or he is not able to get them I will repeat the above to get the files...

[Q] Ghost Touch in Play Store

I Just bought a new china phone called iOcean X7 Elite and it's wonderful! I love it! But I have this funny problem where when I open the play store it would start having random ghost touches all over the place until I close the play store. This only happens when I open the play store! How can I fix this?
What I've done:
1) Googled about it. Can't find anything about ghost touch on a specific app.
2) No mention of this on any other iOcean phones but I have 2 phones and it happens on both
3) Found a workaround to install apps. Google the app, click the link and open with play store. That way I can open play store without ghost touch until I go to the main menu then only the ghost touches will start again.
4) I tried reinstalling the latest gapps (I'm on Android 4.2.1 btw) and it still has the same problem.
5) Tried to force 2D rendering because I read somewhere that that helped get rid of ghost touches but nothing.
Can anybody help me with this please? It's not really a big issue because I have a workaround but it is annoying!!

Thanks for the reply. Tried it. Still have the same problem. This is so weird because it only happens when I open up Play Store so I know it's not my digitizer..

Mine does it as well. Good phone but this is so annoying.
Short term fix is /settings./ apps/ Google play/ uninstall updates.
Let's you access apps in the old play store for a while but Google play auto updates after a few minutes. Tried all sorts to prevent it
Auto updating but no luck yet.
Think it must be a glitch in the ROM cos mine came pre rooted so the ROM has been tweaked
Somewhere along the line. Hope this helps. Colin.

On that basis, try using Titanium Backup to freeze the old version of the Play Store so it can't be updated.

iocean x7
Think you have to buy the premium version to be
Able to use freeze. Call me a tight git but I.ll manage with uninstalling play updates
For now. Lol. Don.t wanna brick it just yet. Not that confident in such things
any how. thanks for the input. Colin

u dont need to pay to freeze apps.. system tuner does the same job(and even more) for free

Ive an Iocean x7 elite which has the same problem.....for me uninstall playstore update did not work..

iocean x7
Bought titanium backup and froze Google play but can.t access Google
Play at all now whilst it.s frozen. Colin

Now unfreeze playstore or if u have rooted ur phone then back up play store & then uninstall playstore and install it again by system apps installer & uninstaller master!!

I will try downloading some custom ROMS to see if there is any improvement.
For those of you who would like to try, I have verified these to work but I haven't tested it myself.

You cannot acess an app when it is frozen... u must defrost it to use it again... and u have to try a clean uninstall and reinsall of gstore... use your backup or downloaded apks

Nice 1 dude! Now time to look at custom ROMs to fix gps, audio, battery and some other customizations. =]

Solved my GPS issues by buying a Bluetooth
GPS receiver. 20 quid off eBay. Just pair it to you.re
Phone and download an app and off you go.
Very accurate and lightning fixes. Plus you don.t have
to ram youre phone up against the car window.
And another bonus no insane battery drain cos the
Module.s doing all the work .

Ghost touches
Wtf. I too had the same problem - checked with the supplier and he tried a new piece with him - said that didn't have the problem - so sent my old one back and waiting for the new one to come in tomorrow. From this thread, it seems like the new one, too, will have the same problem !
I've downloaded and kept ready a new ROM from NeeedRom which says it's "Custom and Modified" in the banner - am hoping it will solve the issue - anyone tried this to solve the Ghost touches ?
