Gta 3 - Motorola Photon 4G

So I wanted to buy the game from market, but it's saying it's incompatible with photon in my market. I know that's not true because my friend bought Gta from the market on his photon, and even the notes say it's for the photon 4g. My question, is the market recognizing my device incorrectly or how can I fix this? I'm stock and rooted. Markets updated, I tried clearing updates and market cache already.

send me a pm.

I'm playing it right now and its almost perfect. Minor glitches are to be expected though. Still plays like a dream...

Ive tries to and keep getting your phone is incompatible what you running kenny?

I have 4 epics linked to my gmail and 3 of the 4 are compatible but the Photon isn't. Its a rock star glitch on the market

I'm just stock rooted (locked bootloader) on the latest SBF.
The game was developed on a tegra 3 so tegra 2 phones should all work. The photon was supposedly tested before release and again it works great for me. I purchased the game from market.
Edit: I forgot to mention I'm running the latest market that hasn't been pushed through (released) by Google yet I think it's 3.4.4 etc blah blah.

I know it works, I've tested it on other photons and there's no lag at all. Just aggravating knowing its on other photon markets but not mine.

What market version are you on? I can give you a link to the version I'm on if you're not already on 3.4.4. And yes, that sucks that you can't get it.

When I search GTA III, I get 3 different one's from Rockstar, only one shows compatable. Try looking at all 3 in market until you find compatable version.

I have the same version lol. I search for Gta spelt out and other items appear. I click on a shared direct market link from a friend and it says incompatible. When I go to market on pc browser, it says it's compatible with my photon from November (before I factory restored) but not with this one. Nothing changed, both stock, both rooted, same accounts. Never ran into this problem.

Check your pm

I read about gamepad support, has anyone figured out how to configure this? i'd love to make a sixaxis ps3 work.

There's a clumsy app called Sixaxis Controller which emulates screen presses. It's far from good but it's as good as it gets right now.

I have that, but it doesn't work in the way you've described, at least for GTA. That app actually works quite well on PSX4Droid, you can setup the key mappings etc for proper gaming.

this one claims it works on the photon (other 2 said no to all my devices)

Damn it doesn't work on my Logitech Review
It is still saying its not compatible with any of my devices except my Thunderbolt.
I really wanted to buy this but they aren't letting me....

[Q] Getting angry birds to work on Froyo FRX06

I was wondering how to make angry birds work on the android froyo FRX06 on TP2, as in I couldn't install it from the marketplace, is there any other way?
There is a version in a tiad thread I think on ppcgeeks that worked pk on our phones. It was modded somehow. Search over there and you should be able to find it. I have not tested it on the current builds however.

It wasn't modded, it was just the 'Lite' version.
If you find a 'Lite' version of the APK, use it.
I still don't understand the fascination with this game... I played the 'Rio' version, it's really quite boring...
I downloaded the standard version from the marketplace and it worked fine? :|
Really? The standard version worked fine? What version of Android/kernel are you running?

It's just a fun time killer I guess, for when I have to wait in an elevator or something and have nothing productive to do... I have a friend who has 3 stars on almost every level... how he isn't bored, I will never know.

No kidding! I might go back to testing FRX if it means being able to smoothly flick birds around.

Perhaps your definition of 'worked fine' and everyone elses is different - was it laggy? Did you see a severe drop in FPS? AFAIK this is due to the original version being openGLES2.0, which our devices do not support...

Eh, I prefer games like Labyrinth... But I only play it like once a month. Not a big gamer on the phone, that's what my PS3 is for . (I do realize you can't exactly play a PS3 in an elevator, but hey.)
I only tried to launch angry birds (rio I think?) once, never actually got around to playing it. Lotsalag on some pre-play cutscenes so I moved on.

I'm picturing a ghostbuster's style backpack and either a helmet with a visor screen or, for the extreme sports types, a mount for a 40" LCD (for splitscreen multi, of course) suspended forward.

Working fine, as in it was playable, the cut-scenes were slow but that didn't bother me. Apart from that it was okay.
Certainly wasn't a "30fps" experience, but good enough for me.
I was under the impression our devices did support OGLES2.0? No driver support (yet)?

The GPU was designed back when GLES 1.0 was new. It handles GLES 1.1 with an update, that's as much as it can do in hardware.

Indeed as highlandsun states - we do not have the hardware support for 2.0.
Ahh bummer. Oh well, the compromise we make with older hardware. I'm not yet ready to upgrade, and I enjoy the tinkering side of things anyway!

Netflix available in market

Just noticed it when running the blue sea version. Said update available and brought me to the market. Haven't tested it. I'm happy with the nodded versions.

I have seen this mentioned somewhere else and several people stated that once they deleted their modded version and installed the market one it no longer works. I'm just going to stick with the one I know works.
I removed the blue version and went with the market version and it runs fine. I don't have issues in my wife's phone neither...

Does the one in the market let you rotate the phone either way. If not, its useless for me. Need the charging port on top, so I can charge while I watch.
It was officially released today for 15 new devices.
Glad to see it working now.
I'm still keeping the modded version of mine...And is it just me, or does it seem like there are more movies available online then there are on the app? Also, it no longer applies to me, but how come you can't order DVDs with the app?
does anyone know if this market version does 1080p over hdmi?

Nope. I downloaded the update from the market like a week ago and mine does not rotate. Only plays one way. I guess I can just uninstall the update?

I liked my modded blue Netflix app, I'll stick with this one for a little while longer.
I dont think the market version has auto rotate for watching videos on either side

Grand Theft Auto 3 incompatible with Evo3D? (Sideloaded Market v3.44)

Just moved to the evo 3d from a nexus s 4g. The device had an older market on it for a couple days without an update so I loaded the latest market, v3.44 I believe.
Anyway, Im being told that GTA3 is incompatible with my device. Is this due to the market I installed, not being original? Asking because I guess I just assumed that this particular title would be compatible. Thanks!
yeah they made it incompatible even though it runs great on it.
you can either download some app, i dont know what its called.. something like market unlocker or something that tricks the market to download things not flaged for your devices..
some people bought it on their 4G, TI-backed it and restored on their 3D and some people did the google thing, either way it runs well.

March Madness Live App

Anyone know of a workaround for getting the official March Madness Live app on the Photon? Market says it is not compatible but surely it would run fine on it.
Apk can be found here. Installs and runs fine.

Awesome. Thanks for this. Not sure why I didn't find this when searching. Must of been doing too many things at once.
I gave you your first thanks. Congrats.

I'll tell you why this is great, someone here had link to app for $19.99 (for one month of use) and it did not do, IMO, 1/3 of what this app does!
Well....tried to stream the games with the app tonight and no dice. I get the video and just a blank screen.
Can't believe that this app works on the Atrix but not the Photon. Anyone know of what might be keeping this app from doing the video?
I would love to get this working if possible.
I have some information that tells me this app will stream on the Photon. A co-worker of mine text me the other night and said it was streaming fine for him. He has a company provided Photon same as me (got them at same time), we both are running rooted stock, but mine does not work. Had him send me the apk he installed but it didn't work for me.
Not sure what I can do to get this to work but at least I know it does work on the Photon.
It seems like the APK I have is 4mb larger than the one on the market.

Some Gameloft games won't work on GNote2 anymore.

After uninstalling and reinstalling a couple of Gameloft games(1/7/13), Mortal Combat3 and Nova3, they would not work anymore. I was so pissed.... I should have just kept as was..... Anyone experience same thing?

Maybe this should be in the Q&A thread... Hence the ? at the end of your post.
I can't answer your question though? I have not done a switch out in a while on my Note 2...

Nova3: Issue was rotation control app. As soon as I uninstalled, it worked fine
Modern Combat3: It's no longer compatible with our device.
I've noticed quite a few don't work I don't think the Note II's hardware is the blame though I think it's just the jelly bean OS that's causing the issues, hopefully the game manufactures will patch it and fix the compatibility.

I can't seem to find an answer either. While I don't have a Note II, I do have a tablet running 4.2.1 JB, and neither MC3 or MC4 will even load up. I just get that little flashing circle when I try to launch the games...

They let me download 1.5 gb games just fine, but then I get an error message when I open them. NOVA 3 and Asphalt 7 are working. Gangstar Rio and Modern Combat 2 & 3 don't work.
Any updates on getting these games
to work? Thanks
Alas, Nova, MC3/4....same problems here. It is a real let down to buy something, it not work, than gameloft give u a cheese answer.
I did get mc4 loaded. I uninstalled all gameloft games, deleted any gameloft data in sd/android/data then reinstated. Works. Also moved to lightweight v0.6 to try out at same time. Maybe the answer is in the rom, or the sd data wipe. I really can not answer. Also seen where for some people they could longpress home and go back to app after the crash and that worked. But I am worried, because I get my note 2 this week and these such games is why I bought it :-\ was wanting a more smooth gameplay.

Hi,
Some people have had compatibility problems and found that by unchecking in settings, developer options, force gpu rendering option.
That certain apps start working.
Maybe this can help you.
Thanks,
Bryan
My issue was actually with limiting background processes via dev options. As soon as I reset to normal all games loaded fine.
