Some games not compatible? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

One of my favourite game "Blood and Glory" from Glu won't work on my H8. It would install fine but wont start when I open it and simply close. I had the same problem with my old honor 5x. It worked fine on my old S4 mini. There are like 3 versions of the game and none of them would work.
Any ideas? I could not understand this....

I'll try downloading it later and see if I get the same issue.

This game was last updated in 2012 which means it's way outdated. And I believe it's not an issue with the phone, probable this game is not compatible with latest Android versions

Tried it, same thing

the game might be not compatible with current android framework, it seems that it wont open as well in marshmallow.
perhaps you could try another game called 'I, Gladiator'. this one runs fine on my phone.

The game wasn't updated since 2012, that's why it won't work with most modern phones

Pocket Legends...get it..

Not sure if it works at all on the Gtab but you guys need to get this working. Lots of fun so far.
Works great, I have been playing it on my G Tablet. It is so awesome to play this game on a 10" screen too. Almost feels like cheating.
I couldn't get it to install (failed to install). Tried 2 different apk's.
I've played it on my iPhone, but don't see it in my tablet's marketplace. Not sure where to look for the right apk.
Pocket Legends won't install, maybe related to Angry Birds issue?

How did you install it? I've tried on the zpad clean ROM, as well as on CyanogenROM beta 2 and 3, and although it shows up in the market and downloads, it will not install.
Possibly this is akin to the Angry Birds issue? I know it has some issues with the way the sdcard is made available on the gtablet.
I can confirm that Pocket Legends is working after the Tap UI 1.01 update
This was my go to "show off" app for my Gpad. The most current version of Pocket Legends doesnt install on my CM B2 Gpad. However, the older one installs fine and you have no problems logging in. Luckily I had a backup from my Titanium autobackups. Hmm would it be against TOS to post the APK?
If you like Pocket Legends, check this out. http://droidgamers.com/index.php/ga...ers-on-the-way-great-ready-for-more-craziness The game looks even more polished.
Works well on cyanogen beta 4. Seems to be affected by the same periodic lag that plagues all 3d games on the tab.

Market Error
does anyone else experience an error when using purchased apps? on both the zpad rom and on tnt 2.02 I cannot install or run some paid apps due to market authentication errors.

Dungeon Defenders

Immediately after getting into a game, the entire app just disappears and I get booted back into the home screen.
Anyone else getting this?
Yep, doesn't work for me either.
Works fine for me
Not the same problem.... I almost got to finish the first game with all its waves, but right at the end it crashed.
Today I re-tried: entered the Tavern, did some poking around, shooting at dummy... and after about 3mins: crash to homescreen...
I am also having random crashes back to homescreen with this game.
1st crash, was right after loading.
retried
2nd crash, played the first mission, partly into the 3rd wave.
Haven't tried it since.
I am confused. This game was available for the Adreno 205 chip in the older phones. The Adreno 220 found in the sensation should be fully backward compatible + new features and speed ups. The CPU should also be compatible, why does it not work?
What is the cause? Bad HTC drivers? CPU? GPU? Bad Sense 3.0 implementation? OS (I don't think google will mess up that bad)
Just to confirm, I did buy this game and downloaded it from the market, so it wasn't sideloaded or anything
It has to be because of Sense 3.0
There's too many other phones with similar hardware that work fine.
+1 here
I love this game. Any solution?
It usually runs for me with a very occasional crash.
runs great for me. i do have spare parts installed with compatibility mode on if that makes a difference
Also have spare parts installed and set to compatibility mode... it doesn´t make any difference
Just crashed for me too, is anyone running stock loader etc? As stated erlier it is almost certain to be a sense conflict, but the game will have to be updated before its fixed.

So if you use Launcher Pro or ADW etc the game will work fine?
I gave up and deleted the game and all the data...
Chainfire
I've been getting crashes too but then i tried to ran this app through chainfire with nvidia plugin loaded and now it works. But you will have to go through almost 10min lag when the game is loading which is pretty annoying so i don't think this is some kind of fix. Well I guess we will have to wait for some update :-/
can you guys temme the settings for chainfire 3d and spare parts as it is crashing a lot on mine
Is *ANYONE* with a Sensation able to run this game without ever crashing?
Perhaps those on different ROMs?

I've been trying to run it first with a Sense rom, crashed after the intro.
Now I've tried it on a CM7 Rom and it crashes while in a game in between waves.
A friend of mine is running InsertCoin and he says he's running it without any problems.
I've tried reinstalling it several times thought it might be corrupt data which is downloaded to your SDCard but I don't see any difference.
Hope this problem will get fixed I'm only able to play it it on my PC now.
so is there any progress?
Since I`ve upgraded to ICS - stil the same.
none of gpu binares do nothing...

[Q] Anyone having trouble with Humble Bundle games?

I've noticed a few games from the Humble Bundles that don't work.
So far, these games crash on startup:
- Avadon: The Black Fortress ( EDIT: I did get this one to work by downloading the apk from the humble bundle website. When I do it from the Humble app, it crashes)
- Five Nights at Freddy's
- Ticket to Ride
- Anomaly Korea
- The Bards Tale
Could this be a problem with 64 bit? Or Lollipop itself?
I've tried Surgeon Sim and Leos fortune. Both of which are working great
I've had problems with some Humble Bundle Games. It could be for a number of reasons. Remember, it's no different to finding software on windows doesn't work on new versions for <insert reason here>. It could be the runtime switch from Dalvik to ART or just the way it's compiled. I'm not 100% sure if all the major Android releases are backwards compatible. Lollipop is certainly a massive overhaul compare to some previous launches.
I'm guessing broken apps will need to be re-built against Android 5.0. I'm sure this'll happen over time to the import and oft-used apps.
I've launched games from Humbled Bundle no problem, I think Beats Hazard (sp?) flagged an error saying there might be a problem, but it actually ran okay. I can't remember which game it was, but it seemed to fire up and then just disappeared. CTD.
Add Anomaly Korea and The Bard's tale to the list
I suspect this is going to be a 64 bit issue. If it uses NDK, then it probably needs to be rebuilt for 64 bit.

Added. Do you use the Humble app or do you get the .apk from the website and install manually? It does seem to make a difference with some games

The app. I'll give the website a try
according to the Google Play release note, there is a patch for Nexus 9 since 28th of November :
What's New
- Fix incompatibility with Nexus 9
I hope this patch to come soon via Humble App updater...

Whatever happened to XPlay Optimized Galaxy on Fire 2?

While browsing around the net, I've stumbled upon an article, saying that Fishlabs have released their game, Galaxy on Fire 2, optimized for Xperia Play. And how, not only it was XPO, but they've also thrown in Valkyrie expansion pack as a bonus!
This was 2 years ago and it was version 1.0.4.9. I've looked around for this version... but it's gone. Like, everywhere. Google App Store only offers Galaxy on Fire 2 HD, which is ages ahead and targeted at newer devices. I've checked it - it runs on Xplay with custom rom, but the touchscreen controls are catastrophe to play on Xplay. There is no way whatsoever of remapping controls to the gamepad.
As for the XPO version, for some reason, it vanished like a ghost. Literally all the links around the internet are dead. The only thing that's left are standalone APK files here and there, but they're useless, since downloading the game content with this version is not possible anymore - the server will not allow you to connect.
I don't understand - what's the point? It's not even piracy - the game is FREEWARE. Why would anyone go to such effort to delete the only version optimized for this device? Fishlabs got a deal with Sony to help in killing Xperia Play?
Anyways... What do you think? Is there still hope for playing this game on Xplay?
yeah, it's sad the support and old files for our (almost) retired xplay are slowly vanishing from the internet.
I just took a look on my backup and saw i still have the "data" folder, its named "Android\data\net.fishlabs.GalaxyonFire2\files\GOF2\GalaxyonFire2Valkyrie20111114"
something like 240mo is not biggie, if you want i can upload it for you somewhere.

I agree. I fell in love with this phone at first sight, and it really sucks it's losing interest.
I've sent you a private message.
I snagged this way back when it came out for my PLAY. Here is the link, I saved this too my gmail for safe keeping. I also have a backup of the apk and the files needed. As I recently replaced my Nexus 5 with a Nexus 6. I am curious if this link works for you,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.fishlabs.GalaxyonFire2
I also have the Dungeon Defenders as well:

Let me know if these do or do not work

Thanks, and so sorry for such a late reply... For some reason I did not get a notification about a reply to the topic.
Anyways, both links do not work for me. This is what I see upon entering:

BlueStacks Kritika Error

Hi all,
2 days ago I started to use Bluestacks on my Windows 10 laptop and for a day it worked perfectly, truly flawless, I only play one game (Kritika) and that game had a major update and after that update the app starts but I keep getting this error message about xigncodehack detected or something.. So I tried yesterday evening to look for other emulators, to see if they had the same problem, but since there are more emulators out there than I thought, I don't know which one to choose which is best, personally I installed Bluestacks because it was the only emulator that I knew about, so my question basically is if anyone knows how to fix that hack error to play Kritika or if someone knows which Emulator doesn't have that problem and is better than BS? Also for if I wanted to play other games, it would be nice to have like a real android UI instead of the slimmed down version of BS imo..
Hope someone can help me?
