[Q] Vice City

Hello guys
I just wanted to ask if anyone has tried to edit build.prop file and buy Grand Theft Auto: Vice City from Google Play. Probably some of you heard that phone freezes while entering to the vehicle or while driving, but by foot it's ok. It's interesting, cause this HTC was supported week ago, like it is on GTA III.
Regards

Hello again,
No one had replied so I took a chance.
I've edited some lines the build.prop file and made HTC Sensation as HTC Rezound temporarily. After restarting the device, I bought and downloaded this game. First impression? It works, entering to the vehicle etc., so our HTC should be supported.
Regards

What's your rom/kernel?

I heard a rumor it works good on GB

Well, tbh the game crashed twice while driving and it rly pissed me off, but later it was playable - especially on medium details and 60% of draw distance and 100% of screen resolution with enabled dynamic shadows and disabled frame limiter. Average FPS is 20.

I have bug of vheicle freezes on ICS/JB/SENSE/AOSP/CM. The problem is in the game...

Yeah, it's a bug with adreno 220.

Hi I want to edit the build.prop for my HTC Sensation XE. Is there any chance id end up in a bootloop? And do I have to use a ps3 controller when playing vice city or can I still use the onscreen buttons? Thanks.

Edited my build.prop and attached a screenshot of it as I have no idea which line you need to change.

I have been having the Tf101 for two years now and still am fund about it.

what video format does the s4 use for recorded videos? usually it's mp4 i think so the tf300 (and the tf101 too) should be able to play.
but that's just native support (hardware decoding)
just download a video player from player (mx player is my favorite), and it will play all video formats for you (software decoding)

Hi.
Yes it is indeed mp4.
But my Tf101 does not pay it properly.
The film stutters and sound stops.
Even with mx player and dice player.
I was hoping that the TF300t would play mp4.
Gives me a reason to buy it and the wife won't bother
Can anyone else confirm that TF300t can play mp4?

Try enabling the S/W decoder in your settings in MX Player. That always made my videos play better.

Boo. Well, I've played mp4 files from my Dropbox & I haven't had a problem. Hm, I'm not sure what it can be. I can't think of anything unless maybe you have apps open in the background, but I'm sure you've checked that. When you play the video files on your CPU, do they play well? I know I had a problem with my old phone where it would record mp4 files, but the video & sound were out of sync & the video skipped frames. It turned out to be a CM9 thing. So maybe it's the video file itself?

Hi.
I don't have any apps running.
I am running a team EOS Rom that's working fine.
The Rom before this also did not play mp4 also.
By the way...that was liquidsmooth.
Pc does play everything perfect!
Could it be the Rom?

I'm not sure what it can be. I just tried playing an mp4 file 2 minutes ago and it played fine on my TF300T. I'm running Paranoid Android. I had CROMi before PA, and it played fine on that ROM as well. I'm out of ideas. :banghead:

I think I found the issue.
By coincidence i opened a mp4 file that had a lower resolution then my vacation movies.
That plays very well.
But all my vacation movies are 1920x1080.
The TF101 and the TF300T both have a 1280x800 screen.
So I think they both won't play my movies

That's a very good possibility. It might be using pushing the device more because of it. I've never tried playing a file that big. If the smaller resolution files play well, then what you mentioned is a good possibility. Try converting the files & load them to you tablet again.

I think I will have to do that.
But it will take some time to convert all files.
Or buy a tablet that supports the files
Tnx for the pm converter link :thumbup:

i downloaded a few 1080p music videos from youtube and my TF300 plays them smoothly using the gallery app (meaning hardware decoding),
so i think it may just be because the TF101 for some reason can't handle 1080p but the TF300 can (maybe because of that tegra 2 chip instead of tegra 3 in TF300) [i think it's like the ipad 1 couldn't play 1080p either, but ipad 2 can]
i never like converting video files because it takes a lot of time and you don't get the "original" quality
so yeah i guess you should just buy a tablet that can play these files instead of converting,
but i don't recommend the tf300

Thanks for bothering to see if it works.
I wanted to ask if someone would download a mp4 1080p film to see if it worked. But thought that would be to much to ask
Ik don't like to convert either.
So your post helps me to decide what is will do.
I think I am going to look for a TF300T.
Thanks a lot.

I'd you're looking for a new tablet , like i said I don't recommend the tf300 simply because of io issues, you're gonna feel the lag almost everywhere

Really? I thought it was a good tablet.
Not even with a custom Rom?
What tablet do you advise me to buy for around the same price?

i never used custom rom so i can't really tell but people reported with a custom rom it's fast,
but still you shouldn't buy it because right now it's already outdated imo,
i don't know which one to recommend but i think the NEW asus transformer pad infinity (not the old tf700 last year) is very good, and rumors say it's going to be $400, that's a good value, but you have to wait (like months), and i guess by the time it's on sale samsung and other companies probably will have a lot of tablets too.
so in short, if you really need a tablet right now, i don't know which one to recommend because most are kinda outdated.
for the best value you could get the nexus 10 though
personally i don't think i'll buy an android tablet again in the next few years because i like the ipad better (and i like android phones better than iphones)

Here it was about 1/2 the price of a Nexus 10 - nothing was in its ball park for price a couple months ago when I bought the TF300, it was more a choice between the Nexus 7 and this tablet.
Played a 1920x800 mp4 fine, even seeking was fast. Probably still not as strenuous as the file the OP was asking about though.

Dropbox and gallery

Hello,
Been searching a while trough the internet. But can't find a suitable answer. But is there a way to get my pictures in dropbox to show up in the stock gallery.

Don't think so, but I think you can with this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cyngn.gallerynext

QuickPic is an awesome gallery app, I've been using it since the old gingerbread days. They just recently added support for online services as Dropbox, Picasa and 500px among others...

Ah nice...gonna try them both

Whats the best gallery now quick pic has been sold.
Need something as good with the file management also

Quickpic
I've installed this apk, and no more update nor Cheetah :

I just started using Google Photos.
It's not too bad once you get used to navigating around it.

I second this, I find the app works really well and always nice to have a photo backup as well.
Otherwise like said I use an non cheetah mobile version of quickpic, still works great along side google photos.

Piktures or Google Photo.

Thanks brother!

I did not know this app.

Focus is cool, but kinda clunky and slow.. Also don't prefer the UI so much. Piktures has now taken QuickPic's long held place. RIP.

full-screen cover art in lockscreen for media playing

hey guys, I just upgraded my S4 mini to the S7 and Im finding little things here and there that I'd grown accustomed to, have changed.
though I do highly appreciate app notifications on my lock screen, I would also like to be able to see the full screen cover of the music I'm playing behind the notifications. you know, the type which can have controls at the top or bottom but you get to see the album art take up the majority of the screen when locked...any ideas?

Try Samsung Good Lock, you can find it on apk mirror
