No gameloft games?

Is it me, or is ATT blocking gamesloft games?

Must be on your end, I see Asphalt 6 and Modern Combat in my market.

Not to mention the fact that Asphalt 5 is part of AT&T's bloatware....

Gameloft doesnt really use the android market. Gotta get apps directly from them.

Well, before i rooted i went to gameloft.com and it said, "sorry, your device is not supported." Now that ive flashed a rom, and my device lists as a desire hd, BEHOLD! I can buy them now... Explain that one geniuses

One word, genius: Sideloading. AT&T phones can't do it, Gameloft's website requires it, end of story.

I used my stock browser in mobile mode. Go to Google.com search for gameloft. Click the android link under the first result. Find the game you want, and buy then download it. If you do not have sideloading enabled yet, you have to hook the phone to the computer. Go through your sd card under downloads, your game .apk should be there. Now copy it to your computer hard drive, and use sideload wonder machine to install it on the phone. This worked for me, I now have Lets Golf 2, and GT Racing Motor Academy. If you don't have sideload wonder machine, google it. It was very easy to do with full instructions, and worked beautifully.

Sorry, there was someone in the bathroom and I _REALLY_ had to go. Just forgot to dump it... My bad.

Comes up in the market for me. The tegra games don't but I think you need the tegra zone deal. If your looking for blocked apps on the market just enable airplane mode, enable WiFi only and search away.. used to work anyway.
Modern combat 2 is a bad ass game, definetly recommend it. I am hooked on that tegra pinball game though, **** is sick. Samurai 2 is fun but tedious to me. Just my. 02

I think you guys are too easily offended
But anyway, there are only a few gameloft games through the market, no Nova1/2 or hawx or any good ones

I'da done that either way . Seriously, probably the best way to get the Gameloft games without rooting and having Sideloading enabled is probably the method posted earlier with the sideload wonder machine. That's how I used to get Amazon App Store stuff before I rooted.
That, or root. It's so worth it!

Alright, well thanks for the help, I was really just kinda curious, i was just trying to figure out what it was or if it was what I thought it was. It was just kinda weird that it said it wasnt supported. i guess it was cus of the sideloading thing, But really, thanks for trying, I just like the people that try, and I know there are plenty of them on here. thats why im here

Order and chaos finally out but do i buy from android market place or gameloft site??

Its just appeared on both the android market and the gameloft site on my phone. The gameloft site sells it for £3 and the android market for £4.99. Would both include correct optimization for xperia play controls? Anyone know? Also is it true that if I buy from gameloft site then change phone sometime I won't be able to redownload but I can if I get it from the market? Please respond soon as I'm itching to buy it
---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------
Ok I gave in and bought from Android market (in case I ever change phone) I'll find out the hard way if the controls work

I loved Order & Chaos on iOS. I'll be buying it too, but first I'll keep peeled to see how you like the controls

Its a ***** to get gameloft to send you the apks again. When I wiped my phone I asked them and they flat out told me I never bought the games. Luckily I realized I had the apks on my SD card still

The other issue is if you buy from the gameloft store, you can never use that apk on another android device. They are always tied to the device type. I learn that lesson the hard way. I had 6 games from them on my droid x, couldn't install a single one on my XP.
I'll never buy another gameloft game, or that BS from the ea flexion store.

If you bought legitmently the game,just google deeper to retain
I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?

Just bought it on the market so I can install it on my Xoom as well.

Wow, really? They've been good about giving me the latest APKs when I have an issue.
The purchase history section of their mobile store is unreliable at best, but when I provide proof of purchase (I ALWAYS buy through Amazon Payments so I have an undeniable source) they usually send me the APK... and have even given me free games to make up for issues I've had :\

Ok I bought it from android market, the xperia play controls do not work and seems to be no option to enable them? I waited all this time to buy it too... Should have just googled for it ages ago eh...since gameloft spent so much time on NOT optimizing it.

Funny; I was just wondering the same thing and bought it from the Gameloft Store based on that thought...
As a side note, I notice the Amazon Payments option is gone >_<, but on the plus side there's now an account system (and an e-mail notification upon purchase) so I have a more reliable system of seeing what I purchased. That was a VERY necessary change.
I'll report if my story's any different after the data download is complete. Right off the bat I don't see it in the Xperia PLAY Game Launcher... not a good sign.

I hope it's just an update issue and will be fixed soon.

FFFF.... subscription expired... damn, it wasn't that long since I ditched iOS.
...anyway, I can't report anything because my subscription's up and the son of a ***** subscription service is down (apparently it's been down for days too).

Awww.. was hoping to find out, if anyone else tests out the gameloft site's download of Order and Chaos on Xperia play can you let us know if the controls work? Its just touch screen which is ok...but disappointing....

Well, I've been questioning Gameloft on the issue, and from what they say - it may just be a bug (does Gameloft have a error testing staff? Surely someone is testing to avoid these major issues...).
Gameloft's good about giving away free stuff to distract us from issues... hopefully they'll just bump my subscription some months or something so I can find out if this is really Xperia PLAY Optimized... or at least play while I wait for a version I can play without (lame) touch controls.

Thanks mate, been waiting for a while - id always buy from the market, more resiliance in the long run!
We should all join a guild together, what server are you going on (i'd recommend the top one)

I don't have an account so I'll have to wait until the subscription service errors are fixed.

Thanks, ive emailed them too. I made a char on the European server, storm cape.

Well I downloaded it and it seems fun but there is a lot of lag. Like when I cast a spell the animation and everything plays but the spell itself won't cast well after it's cast time. Also adding xperia play support would greatly enhance the experience as it's pretty annoying at times with the touch screen controls.

Gamestring Adrenalin Gamecast to android.

I have started playing around with Gamestring a couple of days ago. I spent a number of hours re-installing Bioshock and Gears of War to see what would happen...nothing. Gamestring will probably need a games compatibility list more so than. "If the game renders in Direct X" is not enough.

I dont get the point with this thread

Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk

I was hoping someone else in this forum had played with the application and had a better experience than I did. Or maybe someone has a few tips for game compatibility. The Gamestring forum are very new and has very little info for the user to troubleshoot issues with app, connection or setup. I thought this would be a good place to ask. "Has anyone been able to stream a game from gamestring to Xperia play."

Start by explaining what Gamestring Adrenalin is?

Sorry. Adrenlin Gamestring is an application that allows you to use a host computer to run a game ex: WoW(World of Warcraft) then capture the game and broadcast it to your device. Similar to OnLive but using your PC as the host and your own games to broadcast. There is an open beta at:
http://adrenalin.gamestring.com
I have had little success with the app. It seems that games have to render in DirectX 9 no higher. Still testing.

The advantages are, this app was designed to stream games rather than being a remote desktop app (like splashtop) so it "should" offer much higher framerates.

Similar to Splashtop, but purposefully built for gaming. I assumed, based on the graphics used on the site that they are aiming at the Xperia play crowd. I have tried both Gears of War and Bioshock, but neither has worked. The service doesn't seem to "hook" the game properly even in DX9 mode. The mouse does seem to move the mouse on the host but no audio or video.
The plus. The possibly of playing emulators like dolphin or or other games that I already own for free on my phone.
The down. (Besides the fact I can't get it to work! LOL) The service requires WIFI no 3g and no analog support yet.

Oh cool.. but i totaly lose interest when you say Wifi-only. Why? I rather sit by my xbox or my computer if i wanna play those games. Why play it on a small screen when you can play it on your TV or computer screen?
And i guess that it doesn't work with another wifi-connection then your own, because you stream your game.. am i right?
So yeah.. cool thing.. but so not usefull IMO

Wifi only sometimes isnt bad, say for instance your in a bg and suddenly you have the urge to have a crap. Load this app and go poop. Its good enough to keep you from getting flagged as away in game. Basicly this app replaces the piss bucket for mmo junkies

I have heard that the WIFI is a deal breaker for a number of people. I kinda feel the same way. Since I am not a big WoW player, I thought it would be a good way to play the rated M games that I don't wanna play in front of the kiddies.

And even IF it should work via 3g, it would fry up your phone bill like crazy anyway so haha ^^

Anyone notice PSOne games are now missing from Google Play store

Seems that the Sony PSOne games are missing, just did a search and came up blank. Anyone else?

I just looked, and I can still see them?

If I had to guess, I'd say your running a custom ROM that doesn't have the right build info - seems to be a recurring theme with custom ROMs. Search on here there should be a fix (if that is indeed the case) - something about modifying the build.prop file I think?

I have the stock rom. I am going to the Play website, not even on my phone and if I type in any of the game name or "Sony computer entertainment america" I get nothing.
I can't even download the games anyway thanks to Verizon blocking them. I tried market enabler but with no luck.

as am I, my only problem is my contract is up in March, and I was thinking go for an unlocked R800i or a, but the reality is this phone is getting a bit long in the tooth compared to the non gaming features and speed of all the other phones out there, I'm not sure I want to spend $200-$300 on something I have already and is already 2 years old tech wise. AND also missing out on 4G LTE as well. But then again I'll HATE not having the physical controls. Sony really needs to come out with a new one.

It looks like Sony is now keeping these PS one Classics exclusive to the PS Vita. Sony confirmed that over 100 PS One classics will be available to download on the handheld from August 28th including Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid, and Resident Evil 2.

Seriously you gotta be ****ing kidding me.
Wipeout is the ONLY game I have wanted to play on this ****ing phone since I got it. I have tried unsuccessfully to get Market Enabler to let me download it (thanks to them being ****ing blocked on Verizon), I have been waiting for this PS Mobile **** to be able to get it, and now they decide no more PS ports on Android. ****ing dicks.
I'm going to try and pirate the damn game now, **** them. Sony you're a bunch of assholes.

And then I lol'd hard. :laugh:

I was able to still pull up the games for purchase on my phone.
I'm using the PlayStation pocket app and MarketEnabler.
Open MarketEnabler, go to Settings list, long press [ca] Rogers and set it. Then open the PlayStation pocket app, hit the search button on the top right, it will show about 8 games. Click on any of the 8 and it links you to the Google Play Store.
Make sure you use PlayStation pocket, not PS pocket. PS Pocket tries to open the PS Store.
I'll post screen shots if you guys want later.

Just got my Minix Neo X7

First thing first... I was super excited to get this going....
After I collect myself, the first thing I did was update the new firmware, install XBMC that is recommended on Minix forum and setup RK remote control.
I notice 1080p movies has a bit stutter on the video, but 720p was great.
What's next?
recomended apps?
launchers?
accessories? - Next thing i'm picking up is the A2 airmouse
I only had 2 hours to play with it yesterday.................

You will find more on the MINIX forums Im an admin over their and till stick pc gets more mainstream you won't find a lot of help on these forms I check everyday ... I love xda I use it all day every day for my s3 and nexus 7.2 but not good for sticks/set top boxes yet
My name over their is keepinitdroid if you have any questions
But to answer your question here. I love TV launcher or use xbmc for your launcher I use pimp my ROM and ROM tool box to tweak several different aspects of the x5 and x7.
A really good app I love is videomixpro in the other forums I have a Dropbox link to the free version or you can find it on Google its kinda like Netflix on steroids but has a one time fee like 2 bucks.
If you like gaming the x7 can play almost every game ive thrown at it ashphalt 8 plays well plus a slew of emulators I use my x7 as game slash media center good luck

Thank You for all the help Brett.
I sign up for Minix Forums yesterday.

I have received my one a few days ago and waited to give it a proper try until i fixed my Logitech K400.
Soon i will add a few things i've run upon, let me say, minor annoyances, but in general the piece is running good, i am as speaking, currently updating to 005 release and will give it another try until the review.

I haven't installed the 005 update yet. I have been running Finless Bob's rom from freaktab, and it's been treating me pretty well. Strauzo's sdk2 one ran well, but i only have the minix crap remote, so not having the rkremote available made me switch back to the finless bob. We need to get some people who are smart devs to work on developing a great firmware

heh, found out about freaktab just an hour ago, that nexus thing caught my attention, might give it a try as i really need multi-user enviroment.
anyway, as i mentioned earlier, there are some stuff that bugged me a bit. one major problem right now is External HDDs, got two of them connected and none of them is mounted, i just get a notification that the usb storage can be safely removed. Stock firmware, ull notice 1080p is kinda 1080i, doesnt feel FullHD, but then i noticed everybody noticed this, and should be a matter of time until this is addressed.
Then the hardware keyboard needs more attention on this area. "Enter" key does not work in no app as a send command, whether it is a facebook send message or an enter to confirm a password. right click is back button, and moving around pages with two finger scroll is too sensitive (but i was so in Win and OS X with the Logitech K400).
Basically, Minix got not much to do except stimulate a more dev friendly device so it can be community rich, with little to adapt to i see 4.3/4.4 on the way faster then on phones definitely.
Havent done any gaming yet, nor stress tested it with some 1080p material, but using it for browsing and chitchat, flawless until now .

I have a small problem... Just rooted my X7. Everything works fine except there is no app to set root permission like supersu. Every app has full access without asking me. Should I just install supersu or what? I have no custom recovery...

I believe you can download the SuperSU app from the PlayStore but not 100%
check with the guys from minixforum.com
Btw which link you followed to root your unit?

Imortant: You have to replace the adb.exe wich is old and does not work anymore. Take it from android sdk.
Should not be dangerous, because you can always flash a clean firmware. But use at your own risk.

So MX Player, XBMC, similar video players output interlace mode? 1sometimes with interlace lines? how to fix any jerky / choppy playback in 1080? doesn't MXPlayer and XBMC support H/W accel decoding? is there a work-around trick to fix the interlace issue?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Head on over to freaktab.com They have all you need to run 4.4 and OC kernel which will fix choppy video, check out finless 1.8 and lewys hybrid. Also a just Xbmc ROM

As the post above says, freaktab.com is by far the best community regarding the sticks/boxes. How i see it, the X7 is getting the most attention right now due to its support, but the community is more alive from shared knowledge, and leaked stuff .
Regarding the technical side, i did try Paragon for exfat, and gave up since they only support that if you contact them, for some reason exfat is not really included on the app. And to be even more honest, i rooted and did not have any problems whatsoever dealing with hardware.
1080p playback is in its final touches, there is a rom based on the kitkat sdk sources released, it is blazing fast yet it uses an old kernel, minix promised that they're next move is going to be with a new kernel, so we have to see what that is going to bring. The only thing is, just like any manufacturer, if they release a newer device then the old ones are going to suffer from official support.
Those devices in my opinion are pretty much under heavy testing era, they still under-perform for the values they've got inside. The more community it has though, the faster they evolve.

Hi Brett,
Have you any idea about how to install and play games that requires downloaded contents ? I had no success with real racing 3, something wrong with the extra download requiring WiFi but even with Wi-Fi on, it still doesn't want to download it's content. I've seen peoples having similar issue but couldn't find any solution even on freaktab.
Im using hybrid firmware.
