[Q] Is it possible to install games like GTA VC or GTA III? - Motorola Atrix 2

Hello! I have an ME865 with ICS Leaked 4.0.4 and rooted. I tried to install both GTA's but they keep giving the same error: "xapk file validation failed". It's strange, this is a good phone, how can it not support these games? Is there a way to install it?
Thank you in advance

You can have a read of THIS thread and see if it helps.
Don't let me see any discussion of warez here though, or the thread will be closed and offenders dealt with.

You may need to "change" your location because some apps are only available in select locations (I don't know why). If you know which device(s) is/are supported by the game's developer you can try spoofing your phone model using the method found here:

You can edit the Microsoft ROM images they provide for use in their emulators but there is no way to take a device specific file an emulate it unfortunately.

How does the market determine your location?

Firstly appologies if this is in the wrong place, i was torn between android forum and X10 forum, but the questions are generally about market and android OS, so posted it here.
How does the market determine your location? I was wondering if this was done by your physical/3G/GPS location or if it was done by rom version? the reason being is I finally ditched o2-uk's crappy "unknown" rollout schedules which I remember with the X1 as being non-existent and debranded my X10. The file I debranded it with was titled Generic UK so i fullishly went ahead with it, however now, several of my previously installed apps, whilst showing up fine on appbrain, do not appear in the market.
Is there any way to determine for sure which version of my firmware I am running, whether it is Generic UK or actually something else?
Thanks for any help, and again, appologies if this is in the wrong forum.

build.prop
sorry, i should have mentioned im an absolute android newb, and that means nothing to me
There is a file on your phone that is /system/build.prop
There are many things controlled here that identify your phone in different ways to the network and internal android applications including the market. You will need to search documentation for your area and how your build.prop needs to be modified for your network or try to get the build.prop out of the stock rom and have a look at what the differences are.
I'm in Canada so I don't know what settings you should use. Have a search on Google for build.prop and you may become an expert fairly quick
If you need anything else just keep asking. Ill monitor this thread and help if I can. I'm still fairly new myself
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App
Brilliant! thanks for the in-depth advice on build.prop. I've found the file and coppied it over to my SD card ready to view, however typically a google for "build.prop" "Generic UK" gives me one result..... this thread!! lol
Anyhow, I will do some more research and see if I can find the standard properties expected for my build.prop
Hope all this worked out for you.
I have noticed no activity in a while here so I will discontinue monitoring it unless you need something more in the next 2 days.
build.prop galaxy tab 10.1 canada
can you please put Build.prop here so we can download it? 313mb so to huge for a single file.

And for editing you need "root permission"

It also uses the location of your connection. At least, that's what they've told me before... My sister in law has a different market when she's in Miami. Different apps to acces. Here in holland, she has the same apps as I do. But, with a motorola droid from verizon.

[Q] How to verify a third party apk download?

I have an old phone that uses Android 2.x, I think froyo or gingerbread. I want to download AFWall+ which is a firewall application that's the successor to DroidWall. The problem is the most recent version no longer supports the Android version used by my old phone. The app's details are here (I can't make it a hyperlink because I don't have 10 posts):
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.ukanth.ufirewall&hl=en
The relevant part says:
- Supports 4.x ,5.x and 6.x (for 2.x support use 1.3.4.1 version)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But the problem is I don't know how to get the 1.3.4.1 version and verify it is the legitimate version. There are a lot of websites that offer downloads for older versions of apks but they could inject anything they want in them couldn't they?
I would ask the developer in his thread what is the proper way to go about this but as I mentioned I don't meet the post requirements at the moment.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

@ukanth Sorry to bother you again but I can't find version 1.3.4.1 in your thread. Did you ever get a chance to post it somewhere? I can get it from a 3rd party website but I just need you to give me the hashes of the packages so I don't install something that's trojaned. I'm a computer programmer but I don't know much about phones, so please keep that in mind if you have special instructions. Thanks

Online-app testing environment for 'rooted' apps?

This forum follows restrict rules to prevent spam. Its also hard to find out where to start.
Anyway I'll post the questions here:
- Does anyone provide Online-app testing environment for 'rooted' apps? I checked AWS or
other mobile testing platform, looks like they don't supported apps with root permission. any thoughts?

you can ask any developer or any friend of yours to do that
Unfortunately, my friends don't want to root their mobile! So I was looking for help on that part. If I'm not wrong, here its allowed to share the apk files? or play link with other forum members..and interested can look into them?

yes you are correct
Looks like there is another alternative. Does rooted emulator on android will be fine for this purpose? Has anyone tried it?
