Help with DPI changing. - Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps

Hiya peeps, have some questions about changing the dpi on my transformer. Have been looking to download a good racing game eg, real racer2/3 gt racing ect but having no luck (not compatible). After doing some research i got to the conclusion that the compatability issue is down to dpi, right?. Well heres the next question, i have managed to get a download which appears to work up untill the screen res changes (i think) so would manualy changing the sreen dpi with a third party app allow it to run?. And finaly can anything go wrong using apps to change the dpi regularly?. Any help you can offer would be great TIA.

I don't think DPI is the problem, just downloaded RR3 on my tab and it works great!
What rom are you using?

Stock although I am rooted. Rr2 also shows as non compatible . Really wanna play this too. I am in the UK, is that an issue?

Im using cm10.1 on Brazil and it works great. Try to download an app called "lucky patcher" and patch your play store to be compatible with all apps.

Hi, back again. Have managed to get lucky patcher but to be honest i am not sure quite what to do with it. Can you give me some pointers on what it does and how to do it?. Custom Patch, remove lisence, change permissions, create modified APK?.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

You have to select the play store app from the list. It will display custom patch if you are using one of the latest versions. Then it will present you with an option to unlock the compatibility with every app you want.

Yeah on the tf its an additional app.
On my nexus one out actually replaced the market. Guessing its not HC optimized yet
Looks like I will have to wait a little longer for google movies.
looks pretty sweet I guss well have to wait for the movies though:/ but is it just me or is it a little bit laggy?
it looks like not optimized for tablet, how can I revert to stock market app?

go into settings -> applications -> all -> market -> uninstall updates
Does anyone who's used the new market know if Google have improved
a) The damned search engine
b) A way of differentiating "tablet optimised" or "universal" apps from phone only ones?
(I know it'll probably be redundant by the time Ice Cream Sandwich comes out - but still)
I see movies on my phone

Has anyone tried it who is not rooted? While using temp root on my evo3d I don't have the options for movies but as soon as I reboot and loose temp root I do.
May be the same with our tablets. The movies only show without root.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Ok, I was able to verify that even without Root that the movies don't show up on the tab.
This is a bit frustrating.
On my EVO 3D that had temp root, the new market simply had no spot for the movies but I remembered that Google said rooted devices wouldn't be able to use that function. I then rebooted my EVO 3D and voila, I now am able to preview/rent movies on the market so I was hoping that you guys just had not tried that yet here since there is already permanent root for the transformer.
How is this not an option on our tablet? I don't get it.
There is an article that was written a couple of months ago about Google Movies which might be of interest for some people.
The new market is supposed to be for phones. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones.html Read the title.
I have a rooted MT4G and the new market works just fine. I even have the movies tab, btw I like the new market, it looks great.
How is working on the TF ?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
This works great on my Samsung Fascinate and looks nice. Haven't tried it on my TF yet but will later today.
Hey the next market is for phones. Wouldn't install it on your tablets, it's not even tablet optimized. Step backwards.

Is working super great on my TF so I recomend.
Its working better than the original.
You can unistall if you want to dont replace your original when you install so that means that you will have 2 markets.

Chainfire 3D

Ive downloaded the pro version, along with the plugins. No matter which plugin i use, I never notice any different games in the market. NOVA, Modern Combat etc. Are still not showing up. Yes i pressed the 'fix market' button still to no avail. Has anyone gotten this to actually work with their device?

I had chainfire3d on my captivate and loved it.
I am having all kinds of trouble getting it to install on my skyrocket tho.
I have tried downloading from the market and from the www page. directly to the phone and transferred from usb.
NO matter what I cant get the pluggins to install. I am root. so doesnt make any sense.
I remember needing to punch some code into terminal emulator with the cappy and i have searched and typed a few different commands into VrE again to NO avail. Getting kinda bummed about it now as its been 24 hours since root..I also installed the 2.3.6 rom on our forums last night.
SR was delivered wednsday with 2.3.5 stock from the Amazon . penny sale.
Anyone kn ow what I am doing wrong?
reinstall your phone and try again. I have it installed on my i727r and it works perfect

You google the game and find out which device it was made for. Also many of the gameloft games aren't on the market. Search for shadowgun.
Why are guys even using chain fire? I switched to the skyrocket from a Dell streak 5 with the original snapdragon processor and all my old gameloft games work and most others as well, even shadow gun runs flawlessly from the market with no mods at all. I'm completely stock, not even rooted on 2.3.6

Because we have games that need it.
You should atleast root it so you have CPU controls and app.controls because it saves on battery

Galaxy on Fire 2, Pinball HD, and better versions of Fruit Ninja, Backbreaker, and others. Also, even though it's not a compatibility thing, installing Chainfire 3D made the textures in Riptide GP load at a much higher res.

New A700 & Draw Something

I opened the a700 box, charged it , let it do its update and installed Draw Something from the android market. So it has whatever that version is.
It has 4.04 with 2.6.39.4+ kernel if that helps.
Crashes here too. Prolly they dont support the resolution yet - so not the tabs fault but more zyngas.

Comparison of Browsers
After while a short time playing with KF, I tried Dolphin, Skyfire and built-in browser of [CM10] Jelly Bean ROM using SGT7 enhancements [Linaro].
My experience is that default built-in browser is quite good, Dolphin has gesture features, Skyfire has video plug-in something.
So, besides what I see above, is there anything outstanding of browser u'r using? plz share with me (us). what's that video plug-in of Skyfire for? I dont like the way Dolphin asks to enter gesture mode, why cant we just use gesture directly when browsing?

It did the job and works well on the tablet. I bought the subscription and I know that my wife would be quite happy about it. I don't know why Amazon does not allow other tablets use this application too. It is more sells for Amazon for sure.

theme support
okay, this is probably a stupid question, with an obvious answer, but i'll ask anyway. i just flashed the Jandycane ROM to my Kindle, and everything works wonderfully, however i have no idea where to find a different theme for it. there is a Theme Chooser that was installed with the ROM, but i have no idea what themes are supported, nor where to look for them...and my forum searches have been fruitless, although i'm sure i'm searching for the wrong thing...
can someone point me in the right direction, please?
Hi, I wanna ask is it possible to replace or remove camera shortcut on lock screen in Jelly Bean AOSP Rom (NOT a CM10)?

I havent tried it yet, but will soon.
anyone got this up and running? how is is it? as always, use at own risk.

seems like CM10 peopel are having issues and TW based people are having success. PLease give some feedback for others to follow.
Hope someone gets it fully working soon. Been waiting for this..
Running well for a hacked version. I got a few errors trying to dl the free game. After the 3rd try it worked. Interface is nice. You can only play the free game 5 times before u have to buy it.
Heres a look at the games:
http://kotaku.com/5949228/the-ultimate-playstation-mobile-launch-game-guide
My q? is how does the in app store get updated and how will we update the app itself since it doesnt show up in the Play store list?
This is pretty interesting. Since I already bought a game from playstation mobile on my ps vita, can anyone confirm If I can download the same game through my existing psn account on a different device? Im assuming I could, but I dont trust them 100%.

Are you running a normal stock rom? I installed running a touchwiz jellybean rom (incubus release 8), anything I do causes a force quit.
The app itself may not be compatible with JB yet. You might have to wait till PS updates the app to work with JB.
