Riptide update works with Xperia Play Controls

The latest update for Tegra Zone game Riptide, has added support for external game controllers on honeycomb tablets. I loaded up the latest version of Riptide using Chainfire 3D(of course), and when I went into the settings menu it let me map every area of the Play! As far as I am concerned, this game is now Xperia Play optimized, just gotta added a little edit to the XML file and Ill be all set.

Tegra Zone store does not work with Xperia Play. Can you list it on the normal market?

You have to use Chainfire Pro to enable Tegra games on the Market.

Which also means you'll need root...
I emailed the Riptide devs and they said they will come out with a non-tegra version this fall and are looking into making it Xperia Play optimized.

I guess none of the others are optimized so it's not really worth bothering enabling it really.

Could you share the specific settings you applied through chainfire on this game please

All I did was use the nvidia plugin. Didn't tick any boxes. In the game, you can go into the settings menu and go to controller setup and map the controls.

But you need a separate plugin, right? I've never got to play Tegra games on my Play despite having CF3D... could you point out where the plugin is?

Awesome find! Checking this out now. I heard some news that it'd be Xperia PLAY Optimized a couple days ago, but I definitely didn't expect it to happen that fast!
Now lets see if this brings something to the table that Asphalt 6, the Need for Speed games and Raging Thunder 2 didn't.

Nice share mate..
Downloading n will report soon

AWESOME!
Downloading

Go to settings, then Controller, keep scrolling right on the controls and you will eventually get to controls for hardware. It uses the buttons and the Dpad for control.
Been trying this and I like it, nice graphics, cars handle pretty nicely too.

can any one share the game data.. ?? its taking forever to download.

You must have missed it, go to settings, controls, in Control style swipte it all the way to the end (left), you then see the option Gamepad Control. That works on the play and works for me.

This game is awsome. The best racing game on a droid. I LOVE IT!! Very well made.
Sent from my R800x using Tapatalk

I Jane 4 different styles and game pad isn't one of them there are no words just 4 wee images. You also say swipe to the end. You can't swipe. Only hit the wee arrows. Maybe its giving me an older version but I'm downloading from market do doubt it

SpyKit Camera for S4

Hi everybody, let me present you SpyKit, and app designed for taking spy pictures in a very simple yet powerful way!
The motivation was to address the main problems in most of the existing spy cameras: lack of polisheness and counter intuitive user interfaces.
Right now this is the only spy camera that works when you screen is truly turned off!
How to use it?
The first thing you have to do is activate it through the main switch in the upper right corner. You can also put a widget in your desktop for quickly enable it.
Then there two ways you can use the app:
-> Using your device buttons. (PLAY, PAUSE, VOLUME UP/DOWN)
By default all buttons are mapped to the Single Picture Action.
-> Using the Motion Detection feature.
By default motion detection is mapped to the Continuous Shooting Action
You, of course, can change this mappings at the settings screen.
SpyKit, by default, displays a floating preview which you can drag and resize as you like. It allows you to keep using your other apps while the preview is active!.
If you don't want the preview to be shown, you can disable it at the settings screen.

We are trying to make a good quality app and we would love to hear what you think what we have built so far, from new ideas to even translation things (we are not native english speakers).
Thank you all!

The thing about digital zoom is that they do almost nothing... It would be the same if you just crop and enlarge the image using photoshop. Anyway I will take your request into account!
Thanks!

LG Home Hidden Menu_Enable Theme and Landscape mode

Hi, found this 'activity' LG HOME HIDDEN MENU while figure out how to enable 'theme' in G Flex2. By enable/disable some settings in the menu, accidentally also found a way to enable landscape mode in home screen.
What you need:
App: securesettings to create widget link to 'activity' (there may other app able to achieve same function).
Root? I'm rooted so not sure non rooted is it working.
1. Add a widget from home screen, select securesettings.
2. Under securesettings, select Action > Launch Activity> Select app 'Home'> select activity called [HOME].DEBUG.LGHOMEHiddenMenuACTIVITY.
3. Launch the widget created. Here is where you can play around many settings for the LG Home.
To enable theme:
search for theme> enable FEATURE_USE_THEME > save Home > save Workplace.
Escape and look for theme in display setting. Bingo!

Escape and now home screen redraw in landscape mode.
Enjoy!

Need root for those activities.

hi,
I've did these tweaks but nothing changed

I noticed you have the android wear app, so I assume you have an android wear watch. What is your battery life with it like? I just got a wear watch and my battery was horrible with kernel using like 60% and the phone using about 34.5% of the battery/hour.

Can someone confirm if this works and if you need root or not?
Thanks

IDK whay, but for me neither landscape work nor tabs are removed..

What file does this write to? Maybe I can add the lines manually. I could only get themes to work.

#root. really now ?
anyways thanks for giving me an extra reason to root my flex 2. im really envy of my friends Z3 landscape mode.

can confirm wont work w/o root

No it wont work without root

Honor Note 10 turbo button question

Hi, is there anyone able to get the turbo button working in-game? the button definitely works since i can use it for camera. But when i press for game, it doesn't show any option for turbo. No drop-down either. I'm in latest ota.

So far ve read it only works in a few games.. PUBG being one of them.

I've tried looking online but I'd love to know what this says..
I was under the assumption that it didn't involve any interaction from the user. When you pressed the button it just did its thing in the background...

Thanks. i was wondering if the button really works, as i can't see any feedback shown

The button does work and launches gpu turbo but this only works for certain games as not all games take advantage of the gpu turbo function

From Google Translate
You are welcome to use the Turbo button. This function includes:
1 · Turbo mode: This function can improve the performance of the whole machine, but running too long may lead to high power consumption or equipment heating.
2 game hover menu: Use this function to add the game to the game assistant list and start the Turbo button in the game interface, and do not uninstall the game assistant
3 camera shortcuts, the screen display time function

Works for me on war robots. When the game is open and I press the turbo button a little drop down menu appears, then tap the turbo on the left

Thank you. But I couldn't copy the text to paste it into Google... Many thanks..

you need to put the games inside the game suite app first then run the game and press turbo key and voila! Works for me everytime.

thanksss bro...

Works flawlessly on the temple run games hahaha
Seriously it does work on those games, think it's hit n miss what it works with and what it doesn't, just try with a variety of games
