As in the app installs correctly but the data does not download? Try and go find a download for the SD card data and put it /sdcard/android/data.

I can't get app to install from market. Tried build prop changes and setting the density to 240 but nothing works. Also tried using chainfire pro market fix

Thanks got backstab on the 0.99 cent sale and spent like 2 days trying different combinations of settings trying to get it working. Figured out power VR but never could get it to load (heh didn't wait long enough I see)

Anyone tried shadow gun on touchpad yet?
Edit:
It works great with chainfire, so far. Highly recommended

ok so i assume you installed the nvidia plugin and did the market fix.
if you still can't see the nvidia apps then go to settings>manage apps> and clear data and cache for the market, then try again and see if that helps.

Order and Chaos Online doesn't seem to work.
Have tried build.prop edits, Chainfire3D Pro changes + plugins. Can't seem to get it to work, always force closes.

Of course you can get it "that" way. But if you are intent on buying it. Try and buy it no another device, delete it on that device, and "obtain" it from the internet. You are not pirating it per say, just obtaining a version that works for you. Also, I have an idea. Have you tried setting the android market to load with Nvidia on the per app settings with Chainfire?

I realize that might be considered fair, it is delving into a grey area. Besides some of the "grey" apps may be riddled with malware or other goodies.

Blockbreaker 3 HD on sale now! LINK
Full sale including other games: LINK
The Gameloft apps seem to require IMEI, build.prop and LCD to 160. If you don't have these, your mileage may vary...
Backstab HD was in sale 12/11/11 for the same price and prolly will be again. It also runs perfectly on the nook.
Asphalt 6HD was in sale a couple of times over the last week for the same price and prolly will be again. It also runs perfectly on the nook.
Here's the build.prop edits I have: HERE
build.prop edit how to:HERE (you should backup your original first just in case you decide to change it back.) Don't forget to clear market data and reboot.
Could you tell me which parts of build prop you edited? Thanks.

Still can't get this to work on my Nook Color.
I've edited my build.prop to the following:
ro.product.model=SPH-P100
ro.product.brand=bn
ro.product.name=encore
ro.product.device=encore
ro.product.board=encore
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
I've cleared out my market data multiple times and rebooted multiple times.
Neither Blockbreaker 3 HD nor Backstab HD show up in the Android Market on the Nook Color, and when I try to get it through android.market.com it tells me "This item is not compatible with your device."
Any other ideas?

The LCD density is already set to 160.
Indeed, I too made the same build.prop changes, verified that the dpi was set to 160 (my encore nightly was already set that way), cleared the cache and data for Market, and rebooted. I verified the build.prop changes after the reboot just in case I erred.
Blockbreaker 3 HD still does not show up on the market and shows as unavailable on market.android.com.
I'm running nightly "cm_encore_full-253.zip" and "gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip". Any other suggestions would be welcome, Blockbreaker looks quite fun. Thanks.

I'm running 253 as well. The gapps version shouldn't affect anything. The only thing left I can think of is IMEI editing, sorry. Gameloft always finds a way to make installing a game 20x harder than it needs to be.
Understood, thanks. I take it then that lack of a real IMEI can cause apps to show as unavailable on the market? (I had only previously run into IMEI problems with already installed apps, like an old version of Touchdown. They didn't work right but they showed up in the market and installed, IIRC.)

I wouldn't have thought so but Gameloft games have a history of having buggy DRM that does everything but a credit check before allowing you to play your game. The exciting news is that with IMEI editing (and everything else) these games are seeming to install and prevent me from needing to scour the darkened alleys of the internet looking for hacked .apks.

Gaming on Nook Tablet

I've been trying to sideload some games such as Asphalt 6 and Gangstar Miami Vindication but i haven't been able to get them to work. Has anyone been able to get these to work or have installed other great games?
I have asphalt 6 hd running perfectly, however i did buy it when it was 10 cents. so the issue may be in license verification. but to be sure, try to download the app again from a different website(4shared, mediafire, etc)
Make sure to add .apk when you search for an app. for example if you search Asphalt 6 HD, you type it like, Aspahlt 6 HD.apk
the .apk the type of file android uses for apps/games.
P.S. sorry if you already knew all of that stuff^ just trying to help

See when it was 10 cents it said my Nook Tablet was not compatible. So i got the apk and after i installed it it said it had to download the game files and when i started the download it just force closes.
i bought the app through my phone and then went to my nook and check the my apps part of the market it was shown and installed through there.
try clearing data for the app
Well at least i know it's possible, now to find an apk that actually works...
I have Asphalt 6: Adrenaline on my Captivate. It runs ok usually, but some times it gets very choppy and unplayable. I want to try it on my NT. I could not find it on the Market of Amazon App Store so I used Titanium Backup and Dropbox to back up, move the files, and restore. The app shows up on the NT but when you I try to open it, it says that it is not compatible and that I should request a refund.
My NT is on 1.4.0, rooted (Nook&Zergy) with OTAs blocked.
Has anyone figured out how to get this game working?

build.prop for plants vs zombies???

So plants vs zombies works on my evo 3d, I've edited my Touchpad build prop to match my evo but on android market it shows as "HP htc shooteru" tried copying the. Apk to my touchpad and it installs but gives an error installing additional data. Has any one been able to run it?
I kept my build prop the same and just installed pvz. It works fine without modification.

There's a good video, by rev kyle, on how to change your build. prop to GT-I9000 and samsung, which worked for me.
Good luck.
Yep I've watched it and tried it, set permissions etc but still wont install extra game data
Sounds like this issue is touch and go my friend. Download asphalt 6 in the meantime. Seems like that works.

Try format /cache /dalvik cache 3 times (wipe), then re flash the rom. This solved the problem for me.
Good luck.
Search!
edit : Make a backup! Change the build.prop to GT-I9000.
I have not edited my prop file and plants vs zombies works with no issues.

Really?? What Rom are you using?? I'm on latest xron.
I cant even find Plants vs zombies in the market. I got the paied version on my Desire S, but when i wanna install it on the touchpad, its not there?! I have set the build.prop like the samsung... Anyone know what to do? Im running cm7 alpha 3.
Has anyone tried the Amazon Market? I was able to locate it there and download it no problems with no change to build.prop.
Yes, I tried it and no problems.
I used the Amazon market version which I picked up for free, but restored from TiBu instead of the market. In fact, I've restored all of my apps and data with each new version with no problems. The only thing that doesn't seem to restore successfully is my WiFi access points, but I assume that's because Leoisright is making changes to help those with problems.
I still can't get it to work, is it because I'm in the UK?
I have tried Samsung build prop, evo 3d build prop, moving the game files from my evo to the correct directory on the touchpad and moving the plants vs zombies APk, it will open and do an update check that fails everytime, it will not appear in the market on my tp whichever build prop I try. I tried buying it again from the Amazon app store but because I'm in the UK it said "unsupported region"
Really annoying I can't get to run, seems like it would be a good tablet game, can anyone share there build prop with me??
Use. the. original. build. prop.
and if you're using it from amazon appstore, you need something to spoof your location or atleast have a billing address in the US.
Yep I've tried the original build prop, HP tenderloin etc. Wiped caches, cleared market data, Google framework services data, still dosent show up in market.... I give up lol
I can't see it in the Play Store and Amazon isn't an option for us Canadians. I'm going to try setting dpi to 160, clearing app data, flashing latest CM9 nightly, clearing Cache and Davlik and then see.
I have it if you want to side load it....
Edit: I just looked up the ELUA, and EA are jerks. What ever happened to "you buy something, and it is yours"? Everyone is told as a child to share. Now apparently I don't own it, I am just renting it.

Just checking on this, as it's not entirely clear from your post... but you know that just installing Chainfire 3D won't do anything, right?
You need to actually install the plug-ins as well (NVidia, PowerVR, and Qualcomm), and select one of them to use. Have you done that?
For example, if I don't select the Qualcomm plug-in, then NFS: Shift will still have screwy graphics. Once I select the Qualcomm plug-in, it runs great.
How did you manage to purchase it on the Google Play Store? Can you provide a link?

Try the other plug ins.
EDIT: BTW, you should really read the chainfire thread. There is details in there. You may have to tweak some settings if a plug in doesn't at first appear to work.
And when you say "go back into the game", does that mean you have the game loaded already, then you go to chain fire, change setting, then go back to the game still loaded? I'm not sure that works. You may have to totally reload the game after you change settings.
OK I WILL i just have one last question whenever i click to install one of the plugins the phone freezes and i have to reboot?

FWIW I don't believe you. Partly because you've only posted in the I727, I9100 and HTC Rezound forums since joining XDA, and partly because you only mentioned the Xperia Play after I indicated you could only get it for this device. Whatever, it's not even on Google Play (your original claim) even if you do have an Xperia Play.

Games not compatible fix?

What can we do?

So I found this...
Go into ES file explorer and open build prop with some kind of text editor.
Look for these three lines
(model, brand, and name) and change it from what it is to this:
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.brand=Samsung
ro.product.name=Galaxy Nexus
and then save it and restart your phone.

make sure you mount the system as writeable, change it, save your changes, THEN reboot.

Did you get the games yet? Do they run well even though our device is technically unsupported?
I played dark knight and spiderman pretty good. Dark knight had some lag here and there but with the right rom and them finally updating it.. It worked out.
Once the game is installed, can you revert back to your original build prop & still play the games?

Screw it, I'm testing myself & reporting for others who wanted to know.
Editing the build.prop was a pain. had to edit 5-6 different entries just to get the Market to think it was a Galaxy Nexus.
Market Installing Gamloft's best (Asphalt 7, N.O.V.A. 3 & Modern Combat 3) doing Dead Space for kicks, I expect the Gameloft titles to work but Dead Space might not work.
I'll install & then revert build.prop back to normal.
EDIT:
Gamloft games running as normal bringing build.prop back to normal, I was able to buy N.O.V.A. 3 while it was on sale for $1.
No change in graphics .vs paymium versions.
You can locate your purchased Gameloft Installed games under "ALL" & I see the auto update checked, even though it's listed back to "Unsupported" so it could be possible to recieve updates.
