It works fine on my Nexus 7, but says it's not compatible with the TF700, any idea why? Is Game Loft just lazy again?
Probably. It wouldn't be the first time.

I think their problem is they do everything on a whitelist rather than let people just try it out. So even if a device is capable of running it, since Gameloft hasn't thoroughly tested it, they block it off. As the Infinity just hit, it'll be a while before Gameloft adds compatibility to any of their games, if they do at all.
A much better approach would be to show a big disclaimer on "untested" devices that the game may not run properly and the person runs it at their own risk. If a person really feels unsure, the warning gives them time to use their google play refund.

ya i was pissed when i saw it wasn't compatible. i was going to purchase it on my galaxy nexus and then transfer it over to my infinity. but i dont want to spend $7 if it doesnt work on it since i have no interest in playing it on my phone.
@OP have you tried copying the apk over from your nexus to see if it would work? if it has licensing then it should still work since you are using the same accounts.

Thanks, I will try that! I don't know why I didn't think of that, I space at night lol
I asked GameLoft on Facebook when they would support this game on the TF700, and why they hadn't as of yet, I got this reply-
"Check the availability of your phone by accessing http://www.gameloft.com/mobile-games/
The "Games for your phone" link will let you know which games are available for your device.
Have a great day!""
Quick reply, and nice, but completely useless.
I got it! I backed it up in Titanium on my Nexus 7, then uploaded that to Box, then using Titanium on my TF700 I used the Box integration and restored it to my TF700, and, well, Batman is rocking the Infinity too! Take that Game Loft I still have about 15 bucks left on my $25 Play Store credit on my Nexus 7, I think I'll pick up the new Spider Man game too, now that I know this works.

Did you have to have the infinity rooted? and how about the nexus 7? can this be done with other games as well that are "not compatible" such as black ops zombies or spiderman?
Wow....this is an interesting 'discovery'. I like to play MYSTERY MANOR, but it, too, complains that my device is not compatible. Wonder if I backup the game on the SGS3, and then bring it over to the TF700......will this work?? I have root on both devices - is anything esle needed??
For whats it worth, Play does say it's compatible if you are running the unofficial cm10. I got it for .25. Well it does play, it does not appear to be optimized as it can be choppy.

I tried buying out from the game loft site but had technical difficulties so I just bought our from the market.any way it works although I bought out because of the gyro controls.how am io suppose to enable it?
i would suggest anyone looking for gameloft titles to go the gameloft.com FROM YOUR PHONE. you can 1)charge to your phone bill 2) there's a buy one get one free sale 3) if you buy via the sale... they're cheaper than buying regular (ie.. buy NOVA standalone is 4.99.. purchase on sale it's 2.99 PLUS a free game). I spet 12 bux and got a ton of great games that all work on the g2x. BUY THESE GAMES. Support gameloft so they can stop being punks and GO INTO THE MARKET FULLY.

That sounds great and all........but what about for us addicted with flashing ROMs. My experience with Gameloft.com in the past, is as soon as I switched ROMs I could no longer use the game because it was purchased under the previous ROM. I don't know if things changed, but it seemed Gameloft used to have their games on lock down pretty well before. If things have changed and we can use the same .apk throughout multiple ROM swithches, then sweet I'll be all over it. So let me know if anyone has tried purchasing these games off of Gameloft.com and tried using them after flashing different ROMs.
I use titanium backup to restore em.. no problems what so ever chief. I just flashed back from CM7 (2.3) to stock today.. picked up right where I left off.
Also make sure you keep you're APKs in case you need to reinstall. secondly.. i read somewhere yesterday (and tested it) Gameloft lets you redownload apps as long as you can log back in.

Sweetness!!! That sounds awesome. Guess now that I think about it I never used TiBu in the past to restore my games because I used to have problems in the past. This was from my N1 times. LOL! Ok, though, thanks a lot for your response, that's exactly what I wanted to hear.
just remember if you switch from stock to cm you have to copy the gameloft directory over. (needs to be on external sd for CM7 and internal memory for stock).
EDIT: also.. i tried downloading some games I purchased on my G2 and got a "this is not an orginal.. bla bla bla" error. Hopefully they're working on it.. doesn't look like "cross device" installs will work. they're still device specific.. but cross roms is works with titanium
yea btate sometimes when i switch roms i go to titanium to restore some of my games n i get the error ur talkin about
really? that's odd.. i just flashed CM7 again and restored via titan and all is peachy (wanted to fact check so I didn't mislead anyone). However reinstalling with the APK.. that's a problem. Titanium solved that issue for me.
which games were you trying to run? i darn near have them all so maybe that issue could be game specific? (i didn't run each one. just spot checked 2 of them)
Also.. make sure you're copying your gameloft directory to the right place.

Ah ok good stuff. Yeah I remember the games always making a Gameloft directory folder on the external sd. I'll remember to copy it over. Right now I'm on EB1.0.4FR, so I'm still pretty much on stock ROM. But yeah, I can understand when you try to play a game you downloaded for a previous model phone on your new phone that it gives you that bullcrap error. BAH!!! Oh well! Hopefully they fix it, but I won't get my hopes up. LOL!
nova and nfs shift and sometimes it says something about a copy???
were they originally purchased on the G2X? like i said.. i can't get any of the games I purchased on other hardware to run.. but I can anything I purchased on teh G2X over different roms... at least starfront is working. I am starting to have a sinking feeling that I should just insert foot to mouth. i'm going to switch back to stock momentarily and double check this. oy vey.

This is why I refuse to buy games from Gameloft.
just confirmed. starfront DEFINITELY works across different roms. restored from backup on CM7... played fine.. just went back to a nandoid stock rom.. playing now.. picked up right where I left off. mileage varies i guess
well.. going forward, theoretically the ones you guy from the market should work accross devices.. which is why i'm suggesting everyone support and show gameloft YO.. GET YOUR BEHIND IN THE MARKET! maybe my thinking is backwards.. but I want gameloft to know that the android community supports them and we're willing to pay if they get off their behinds with that awesome catalogue of games.
has anyone got this to work on the transformer?
saw it on the iPad and it looked awesome.
i have it running on my vibrant but i want to take advantage of the Tegra 2 on this larger screen.
every time i start it it just close. no force close, no error that my device isnt supported, just closes.
very unfortunate.
That's probably because the version released to the market is not compatible....
Go to The Market on your Transformer and it's not listed.
Go to The Market on your PC and your Transformer is not listed as compatible.
So, I don't know how you even managed to download it, let alone install it in the first place?
i downloaded it since its a free app on my samsung vibrant and then grabbed the APK and side loaded it onto the transformer. you can also download the free APK using google as well.
there are a lot of games that are not listed as :compatible: but still work on the tablets and transformer as well but for many reaons are not in the market for the device.
thats why i decided to try this game on the tablet but now see it really doesnt work.
i figured other people are working hard to get other games to work on the trnsformer such as the spider man game etc so why not ask about this one?
looks like i got my answer though, thanks

No problem... Shame as it looks a nice game.
So I made the switch from the TF201 to the TF700, and I've got to say my overall experience is happy. The one thing I'm having trouble with is some of the games I have purchased are not compatible. I'm not one for pirating, but I do want these games on my tablet that I've already paid for.
Anyone know where I can pick up the APKs for Asphalt 6 and 7, Mass Effect Infiltrator, and BackStab? I'm not rooted, and really don't want to... But I do want the apps that I've already paid for.

Absolutely not condoning any kind of piracy, but I feel your pain. Here is a process I have to do a quick search for any apk that is out there.
1. If you are just looking for a canonical listing of all APKs:
http://www.google.com/search?q=-inurl:htm+-inurl:html+-inurl:asp+intitle:"index+of"++(apk)
2. If you are looking for a specific APK and you know what it is called add it right before the end of the string:
http://www.google.com/search?q=-inurl:htm+-inurl:html+-inurl:asp+intitle:%22index+of%22+%2B(<appname>.apk )
3. Wildcards in the appname area are supported but do result occasionally in unexpected results.

I may log in on a friends TF300 and see if I can pull them and back them up that way.... I'm not having any luck finding the APKs... But I haven't ever pirated anything on Android either. I choose to support the developers. I just wish I could make the market not hate my device.
Oops, so you haven't.
If you have another Android device (like even a smartphone) you could install them to and copy this way, and if you don't, I think you should consider contacting these games' devs/support, they are normally very friendly, I had the best of experience with most of them.

I installed asphalt 7 on my galaxy note and used the titanium backup files to put it on my infinity. Works great. The Dark Knight says I don't have enough space to download files... I've got more room in the infinity than I do on the note...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
From the release of the Infinity, there has been low compatibility with apps and especially games. Some have said it is related to lack of developer support for the high res screen. Others have suggested the Nexus 10 will force developers into support for the new generation of where's-those-pixels tablets.
Both Skype and Rock star announced tablet optimised app releases in the coming fortnight (the latter for Vice City). The TF201 is on both compatibility lists but no Infinity. Is this deliberate? Or did hardly any Infinities sell and hence support for it make no business sense? In addition I don't see many EA or Gameloft releases, both old and new, supporting our machine.
Perhaps I'm being impatient and this is just the early adopter first world problem. Or maybe it's another reason to jump ship to the N10.

Not just the TF700. The Note 10.1 has the same issue. As does pretty much every other HD tablet.
They work fine. I've got nearly every supposedly 'not-compatible' game running, no issues...
The thing is this. Devs made their games in a low res. They're too lazy to re-release the games with a higher resolution. (adding the infinity to the list won't change the ingame res, it'll still be upscaled.)
All they have to do is update the texture packs, but they simply won't. Of course not,
EA has always been too arrogant for customer support. (Don't believe me? The EA Master Server was dead every day in BF2, and they haven't changed anything, not even a cable, 8 years, 7 Triple-A games and 9 expansions later. The Master server still erases profiles&progress nearly once a day, fails twice a week completely and crapped out on the release night of BF3 and stayed down for almost 3 days...)
Gameloft is Ubisoft's mobile section, so that speaks for itself in terms of a completely non-existent customer support.
To be fair, though, Gameloft has a decent amount. EA is just an arse:

Please clarify. There's a hundred ways in which you 'can't download'. Error? Doesn't start? What?
I side loaded most of my gameloft games that's not available on the market and they work fine. Some games however will have smaller menu screens or smaller on screen buttons. An example is wild blood. Come to think of it's that the only one I recall right now. EA games however, you get a server error when games open. With the exception of NFS Most Wanted. It can open but plays slow. Like playing in slow motion. Theres a mod to make it faster though. Glu games are all available. Most other apps are too.
On nexus 10 almost all the games for gameloft, EA are available from the market and all work without issues. Once exception is wild blood is not available but can be side loaded but buttons are even smaller and menus are blank. So really not playable. Most other apps are available too.
It maybe a matter of not being able to test their apps so they dont make it in the compatibility list? But it does suck that tf700 out of the box is not supported by most. Seems like its the misfit of all the devices due to its unique screen resolution.

That's a resolution-not-found error.
Basically, it means the installer can't find the files related to the device's resolution. (Evidently, as they don't exist.) You can call them until hell freezes over, it's not going to be resolved.
There's only one way around that, and that is to download and install the SDdata manually. There's plenty of sites that offer them. I don't think it counts as illegal to manually download the data if you already paid for the .apk in the playstore.

Same issue, same result. Not able to copy data from my S3 for this. Any solution?
My result with NFS most wanted is sideloading the apk from my s3 worked fine and it downloaded the data when I opened the game. Game is in slow motion however.
For NBA jam or Mass Effect when I transfer the apks and open the game I get an error. I copied the SD data also but same error on Mass Effect and on NBA jam the screen just flickers with the NBA jam logo.

I have nba jam on my tf700 and I downloaded it directly from the market when it came out, works fine too.
Edit: Oh F Me, I must've not downloaded the extra files, now I get the server error 5002 crap. I am just about done with this, either google steps up, takes a hit to make customers happy and apply some rules to the market, or people are going to start to leave the android tablet market and seek refuge with apple, at least we know they have rules for supporting their devices. I know, I know- itunes, evil apple and closed system, but I am willing to live with that but I would be able to download and play every game on their market without worries that my device would be incompatible for years to come.
GOOGLE GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER AND FIX THIS, IT'S BEEN AND IS GETTING WORSE, NOT BETTER!
I wouldnt necessarily blame google though. They have set of guidelines that if followed, apps should upscale correctly to fit larger resolution screen. Devs are just lazy and unfortunately some of them don't support tf700.

I do blame google, they allow the apps on the market without trying to hold the devs accountable to following the rules. why have guidelines if they aren't going to be enforced in any fashion. Sure, our devices were the first to hit the 1080p resolution in the Android market, but **** none of the big players are interested in supporting it. Even if they say they support it they really don't. As an example, you can buy need for speed for the infinity, it says it's compatible in the market, you can download the base files, but your f'd trying to download the additional files needed to play. ow whos fault is that? Google for allowing it to happen or EA for even allowing the base file to be downloaded? In this case, it's both parties, but when it comes to overall compatibility it's on googles shoulders for not enforcing some sort penalty.
It really doesn't matter what I think, they got my money and I'll make sure I don't fall in the shame on me catagory.
Oh and the Zen pinball not compatible issue, they turned it back on for the tf700 after I had a nice conversation with them about it not working. I will cut and paste my emails and their responses. BTW it all happened in a 30-45 minute window.
This is how devs should respond to issues with their apps.
This is me emailing them about the problem with Zen Pinball after the latest update.
"Hi,
I am a little more than frustrated with your company right now. I had this game running perfectly fine before the latest update, which broke portrait mode, so I figured I would un-install it then re-install it to see if that would fix the issue. Low and behold my device is NOW INCOMPATIBLE, which is a crock of you know what, it worked great before this last update. My device is a tegra 3 device, this game is marketed as a tegra 3 game with enhanced visuals, my daughters FUHU NABI 2 is compatible, a friggin kids tablet is compatible but my $600 Infinity isn't? Pleae send me the old apk so I can play one of my favorite games again.
Thank You".
Their response,
"Hi Cris,
Thank you for your email. We are aware of the issue with portrait mode, and will be issuing a fix shortly.
I am not sure why your device is now listed as incompatible, but I will look into this right away.
These updates are tricky, there always seems to be issues that we could not test for, or weird settings that we need to look at in the Google Store."
My response back,
"I appreciate your timely response to this problem, I contacted google play and they looked on the blacklist and the infinity is listed on that, just an FYI. Once this issue is resolved can you please email me and let me know because it really was my favorite game on the market.
Thank You."
And their response,
"We are turning the device back on momentarily. Portrait mode will not work yet, but should work soon as well. Apologies for the inconvenience."
Talk about easy, I mean they gave personal responses, not canned, looked into the problem and made available again in less then an hour. This is great customer service and in turn make me want to buy more of their games.
Edit:
More information from Zen Studios
Hi Cris,
The device was turned on about an hour ago, but could take up to an hour longer to reinstate. Please let me know if things continue to not work for you a few hours from now.
I know theres a thread about this game already but I didnt want to add to the thread as its for a leaked version. But the game is now available on the app market but I dont see it there yet. Is it the same for eveyone else? I can see it with my s3 and prime however.

That's because Gameloft is an arse: (Well duh, it's Ubisoft.)
ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
This item is not compatible with your device.
So you won't see it if you access the playstore through the TF700.
I just side loaded it after I paid and downloaded it on the s3. Works pretty good but not silk smooth like it is on the nexus 10 or s3 though. I say l prime, and tf700 is about the same..slightly lower frame rate.

I bought it and downloaded it on my Note 2 then TB the game and copies over the game data and work just as good and my note 2. I wish Gameloft would just fu**ing support controller s already!

I cant seem to open the game anymore and all I did was unlocked my device. I get a license check error
Edit: copied data over and it works again.

Do you guys think the game will ever be officially supported for the TF700T? I can't believe that it's supported on older devices but not this beast. It runs perfectly fine for me on my Transformer Infinity, when I create a local multiplayer match there is no graphic lag at all. During the campaign I ran into lag once in a while when there were lots of AI and graphic effects but the game always stayed at a playable frame rate. All of the issus I experienced weren't anything that couldn't be fixed with the slightest code optimizations as well. As far as some people had issues with the RAM running out, I had no issue like that whatsoever.

If you're using the dock that might be the issue. Try it without it.

Why? The only reason seems to be that games like this restrict installation on "FHD" devices for whatever reason...

Got the game running - it runs pretty smooth, areas of intense combat lag it up a fair amount, but nothing i cant deal with i guess.
Some of the HUD buttons are missing from the screen e.g. sprint, ADS, fire, crouch etc. Any reasons why?
Also, and this is the big thing, sprint doesn't seem to work properly - as a result i cant sprint over obstacles and barricades, which means i can't progress on the first mission. Anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance

There's a bug when its docked. You can't see some of the huds but still function. Just undock and they'll show up.
I think the sprinting is also due to the dock if I recall.

That did the trick, thanks very much for that, both problems fixed. Wonder why that happened....
Hi guys, could anyone tell me how I can sideload it onto my device?

I know this is a old thread but hopefully. you or someone else will read it and tell me how to use TB to transfer files over. I was able to download it to my Viewsonic Gtab.

What you do is you find an .apk of the game and install that. You then get the TB files and put them into your TB folder where all the other backups are kept. Once that's done, you go into TB and 'restore' the app and data (might just be app, might just be data, cant quite remember). That should do the trick.
If it does not, then you probably need to get the SD data for the game and put it in the right place and then TB the game.
Once that's done you should be able to play it. Im pretty sure thats all the things you need.

Appologies for not replying before, but see my previous post.
Both .apk files and SD data files can be found, just make sure when you find those two (and the TB files possibly?) they all correspond to the same version of the .apk
Hope this helps.

I may be confused here. When you say TB are you talking about Titanium Backup?

I was able to download Modern Combat 4 from the Play store to my Viewsonic Gtab and it downloaded the extra files. Another member suggested I use SugarSync, it allows you to sync files between devices. But I have a problem, I can not find the files. I looked in /data and did not see any MC4 files. What do I look or and where do I find them, please. Thanks
