[Q] Sonic 4 Episode 1, incompatible? - Shield Q&A

So I see "Sonic 4 Episode 1" in the Shield Store, I got a message on "appsales" saying it's on sale for $1.00, so I go to the play store and it says it's incompatible?
That makes no sense right?
Is there a way to bypass this? A way to buy it while it's on sale even tho there is some kind of compatibility block?

I bought it awhile back so I just sideloaded it through my note 3 and it worked fine. I use to be able to download it normally when the shield first came out but I wonder what changed.

Dead Space on Amazon Marketplace - For the Kindle

If you haven't seen this game, you probably should.
The (best?) game I have seen so far for an Android device and this one has been (modified?) for the Kindle Fire.
Kotaku had a video of the game playing here
kotaku (dot) com/5861972/the-kindle-fire-just-might-be-a-kick+ass-gaming-machine
They incorrectly state that its a ipad version running (that version has been out for a while), the actual game is on the Amazon marketplace for $6.99
Funny - in Amazon's App store, when you bring up the page for "Dead Space (Kindle Fire Edition)", it says it's not compatible with my Kindle Fire.
Strange, I was able to purchase, install and play it without any issues last night.

Very nice. Just installed it.
Thanks!
I went out and came back in and now it says it's compatible. I'm gonna try it.
Thanks!
What is everyone's take on the game? It looked good, but I'm skeptical. I also have played both games on 360 already.
Sad stuff, being from EU I can't access the Amazon AppStore and can't purchase it.
Couldn't find it anywhere on the Internet either.
SWETT!
Going to def download this!
They pulled the app, probably due to compatibility issues:
http://www.amazon.com/Dead-Space-Kindle-Fire-Edition/dp/B0066T0EVE
Currently unavailable
We don't know when or if this item will be available again.
Can anyone that already downloaded it please share it?
Cheers

Seeing as it was a paid app, I think that would be frowned upon on this forum.

I think, you only need to give an address in the US to be able to access the amazon appstore.
Issues
I've had many issues with this game since I purchased it, just won't open, takes many many times trying to open it to finally get it to play, and sometimes it will open, but get to the EA screen and Force Close. Once it finally opens all the way thou, it plays perfectly, never force closes or waffles. If it's been pulled, it was prolly pulled for these issues, many reviewers of the game in the Amazon App Store where having the same problems.
Although when it does play, it's very good. The gameplay is is perfect for a tablet, I was surprised at how well it really played, and the graphics look amazing.
I can't find that game in the Market or Amazon App Store
super fun, pref shadowgun more though.
Even though its a paid app if someone would upload it that would be great. Ill buy it when it comes back to the store I'm just excited.

Your willingness to pay for it in the future, no matter how honorable, is not reason enough for anyone to upload this file. If you find it via other sources, good for you, but please don't ask people to do that on this forum.
Alright, sorry about that!

[Q] N.O.V.A. 3 on samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1?

Ok, so I have searched as hard as possible to find a solution or reason as to why N.O.V.A. 3 will not run on my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. There are videos of it working on YouTube and even some of the app reviewers in the market are using it as well. I open the game, Gameloft appears, the main screen pulls up, and dialogue box in the middle of screen says "Your device is not compatible with this game. Please request a refund." All i can click is "Ok" and it closes. Has anyone else experienced this
My SGT 2 10.1 is rooted using Weltwon's method and Superuser
I have same problem with my SGT 2 7"
I have repeatedly tried uninstalling the app AND deleting the Gameloft folder each time.
I would attempt calling for a refund but I'm pretty set on getting this to work with my Sixaxis
By the way my model number is GT-P5113
No help/ideas from anybody?
The gtabs do not include sqlite3, but some custom ROM's do. Maybe they'll fix your problem.

Thank you! Im new to android and still learning. Now I have something new to research.
I installed and am playing it on the 7"...the store indeed says my device is not compatible but the file has been hacked/modified whatever so that it's compatible on a lot of devices.
I can't link anything 'cause that's considered warez..but google should help

Hi, I'm having the same problem with Galaxy S 3.... The device is rooted and youtube is full of people playing the game on SGS3... yet downloaded the game tonite and got the dreaded "your device is not compatible".... to add insult to injury the market place doesn't even give me the option to request refund.
Anyone know of a hack to make the game playable ?
I'm a recent convert from IOS, and am used to everything just working, bit of a supprise to have so few games actually work on the SGS3..... nice to be free of itunes though
Mod edit: Warez are not allowed. Don't suggest it again.
Suggesting people to steal an App is a sure fired way to get banned around here... Just saying. Great write up other than the fact that you won't pay $6 for a great game.
Oh you misunderstand. I would pay for it if i could trust me, but its NOT availiable for my tablet so the only way to get the app (for me) is to do it this way. Once its availiable in the play store I'll buy it cuz i really love gameloft games. and btw i just tried doing the pay thing and it doesnt work
**Note to people using this method -- Dont use it to get around for paying for the game!!!!
-- Also I would change your build.prop back after you are finished.
So I've been busy and missed all these posts. Please let me remind the Mods that i have paid or this app, im just looking to see if a solution is possible. I did just read another thread about Gameloft games not working in general with the tab 2 7 and/or 10.1. I suppose I will wait for updates...
Sent from my GT-P5113 using XDA
idk if gameloft will release an update for a while. I emailed them (as have many others) and it doesnt seem like it will be availiable the normal way for a while
Just an update. I have been back and forth with gameloft. After explaining the problem, they sent me a "fresh" download link for the game. I uninstalled the game and deleted the gameloft sdcard folder. I then installed using their link. Gameloft "G" appears, then the NOVA 3 screen, then a new message appears: "A problem occurred and the download could not be completed successfully. Do you want to restart the download? An unstable network may cause problems when downloading." No matter how many times I click YES, reinstall the game, restart my router, or restart my tab, it continues to show this message.
Once again, I notified gameloft and am waiting for a reply.
Just now I realized the file name sent to me from gameloft is "NOVA_3_Paymium_HD_Samsung_GTP5100_android.apk". Maybe its the difference between a GT-P5100 and my GT-P5113?

Oh I see,thanks.
Hmm, I found it but it says "Only for Atrix 2" and after that it says "Not Compatible With Your Device". Could someone who has the Redemption App PM me the APK or something?
Thanks.

Ouch, if I went to download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.meg&hl=en from the Play store, it refuses as "This app is incompatible with all of your devices. Airtel Motorola MB865: This item cannot be installed in your device's country. Motorola XT720: This item cannot be installed in your device's country." I am not thru VPN, so my IP addr should clearly show I am from India. So if anyone post the APK I'll give it a shot. However, I got NFS Hot Pursuit pre-installed in my phone.
I'm in the US, I didn't know the promo was only for india (IIRC Motorola has it on their US site)
I got it from Amazon Wireless as an upgrade for ATT (1 penny)
That's stupid, well if anyone has a APK it would still be worth trying.

So, try this, I am sure there are enough checks built in the app to verify if your country/scheme/whatever is eligible for the offer.
Remember posting rules guys, this thread belongs in themes and apps
And thanks for the hint! I'll be getting some tonight!

Thank you so much man! It works.
Weird though, that you can't buy most of these through the GooglePlay Store.
And sorry, I though Theme's and App's was for posting custom apps or something.
Hey, just so you guys know, Real Racing 2 and Hot Pursuit seem to be on the Redemption Program now, RR2 wasn't yesterday but is now.
Not sure why, but I'm not complaining lol
I see newer games on list, is there a way to download more than 9 games?
New Games till I remember:
Madden NFL 12 HD
Battlefield Bad Company 2 HD
Real Racing 2 HD
games
I've got my Atrix 2 in US at AT&T in January. I've never knew about those 10 free games, but I downloaded the app posted earlier in this thread and it let me download 9 apps with no issues. I'm currently in Europe, so I don't know if it has anything to do with it
And it doesn't end there.. i have downloaded more than 10 games. And the redemption app says i got '-3' games left! Love ya moto..

Works on my wife's AT&T Atrix 2 running latest ICS leak (after you manually install the APK). Nice!
Just to share a small experience, When was on unrooted stock GB had done a factory reset and had saved the earlier 10 redeemed apks & then when checked the EA redemption app got later, got 10 more games additionally like BFBC2, Madden NFL 12, Tiger Woods 12 etc. Also yet showed in minus (-) games for additional downloads & now after updating to ICS the EA app exists but get message "your device is not supported by this app" which is fine as got more than bargained for.
One question..i download and install these games..after that if i do a factory reset then do i have download all the data again??

If you have NOT formatted the memory card then you don't need to download the game data.. you still need to download the games though.

What the Hell !

So Xbox smart glass app came out yesterday. My friend has it on his Samsung Galaxy S 3. I have it for my old ass HTC HD2 running a 4.0.4 ICS ROM but for some stupid [email protected]#$%&* reason I can't see it in the marketplace when checking with the tablet. So installed it on my HD2 so I would see it in my "ALL" downloaded section and it says not compatible with your device. WTF!
So does anyone know why this would be? I would think my Tab would be able to use it before my 2/3 year old HD2
Sorry. Rant over:laugh:

Don't know if that will work. When i use the tablet to check every app I have downloaded it does show the app but says not compatible with your device.
I googled it and it seems tablets don't have access to it yet. At least not the NOTE10.1

Same here, on the market, but not compatible
D'argo, he.so.fuuuny
"No"
"Yes"
"Bite me"
Just side loaded
Sided loaded this app and it retains the same orientation as the phone app. I hope that they are working on a tablet version of this app. I think it is pretty nifty
A good amount of the "not compatible" apps in the market can be side loaded with no ill effects. Also 1mobile is decent because they let you load any free app.

Trying to install amazon app store

I'd like to try out another market and I thought since this is it on kindle products, I'd give it a shot.
I've got unknown sources allowed, downloaded it from amazon itself... I follow the steps until wanting you to sign in... I can't do that cuz it won't install or even attempt. I can click cancel, or scroll up and down what it needs access to, but that's it?
What else can I try?
Tried mobogenie, but it wouldn't work properly.
Thanks.

I have an update to my situation.. I tried installing the store again today just randomly... It worked!
But now I wonder if I can somehow sync my play store purchases to amazon?
Or do I have to keep the play store hanging around to update my already installed apps?
I'm not even sure yet if it has the same selection... I just know that it doesn't need play services and that should make my battery happier.
I'll keep those around but disabled, in case the odd time I might use something else that needs it. But for the most part I really don't use gapps all that much :/
