Are you guys getting these through the market or do you have to go on their website?
They are purchased through the gameloft site, not the market
However, keep a copy of the downloaded files. I did a factory reset and the web site doesn't list them as part of my downloads. Best to buy games from the market, I guess. Gameloft wants a bit more info than my time is worth, or no doubt I could get it fixed.

Since they don't have an option for AT&T, what carrier do you select when you buy the game from the web site? Or does it matter? thanks
@NFHimself modern combat doesnt work from me, i got a link from the gameloft supoort service, since the game just closes after i skip the video
Bought black pegasus from website. Worked for me. Modern combats in the market now

After messing with me phone a bit, the whole re download part of gameloft is screwy for my purchases, I don't know what firmware I bought what with, and the site detects your phone to determine what games you are allowed to get. Not sure if it's all Gameloft's fault since they had a 2 for 1 sale on 3 games that I used twice, so the site kept telling me to download a free game I already had installed, they them updated the website. Also Nova refuses to download content, support sent me a link for a new download, no diff. I lost let's golf 2 altogether, support ignores me on that one. Annoying, I would stay away from any games that are not from the market if you are into changing firmware/themes/wallpaper/display brightness, OK, maybe not the last 2. And backup whatever you get, however restoring the data doesn't guarantee that the game will use it. It's hit or miss with Gameloft. Makes me want to go to pirate bay to get copies of my purchased games. Not that I have been playing any of them lately, lol.
The NVIDIA pinball game is interesting, paper 3d glasses support.
Cheers!
Ok i am a little confused here. When i got to the site on my phone it says it isnt supported. When i go through the browser, there arent any ATT phones listed ( i assume its because they block sideloading). Can i just choose tmobile, download the apk, sideload it on my phone, and it work? Really wanting dungeon hunter 2. Has anyone had success w/ downloading from the above method?
hi im new here (been creeping as anonymous for a week now lol)
Might anyone have experience with gameloft apk files working on the atrix?
I use sideload wonder machine to install them to my phone
but they all require additional download when i open the app
that usually fails (dungeon hunter 2, eternal legacy, nova)
or it completes and then theres missing pictures all over, like white and the game crashes after a bit.
ive found some files that contains both the apk and a zip folder.
im assuming the zip is for the "additional download" but i have no idea how to install them.
solutions anyone?

lol, i used SWM too. works awesomely.
umm, also had the install freeze glitch. it only freezes when your phone goes into sleep mode or when you try to multitask while its installing.
solution is to go into settings, disable the screen timeout so the screen doesnt turn off (and so your phone doesnt autosleep) and just leave your phone plugged into the wall socket while downloading over wifi. worked for me.
currently trying gt racing. it looks good, but lots of jaggies. antialiasing would be nice, but given our atrix's higher resolution, i dont think it would have enough grunt to run AA (ignoring the fact that tegra 2 doesnt seem to do AA).
sadly, the only way i have found to get any games working is through mobilism (bad word?). i guess if they want my money, they'll open up to att now that the 3rd party sources is open. or is that when official 2.3.4 comes out? idk, it's whatever, the atrix has a very limited amount of gameloft choices anyways. they probably have versions for our phones, but the atrix is kinda unique in it's design. does anybody else know of a non-att, qvga, tegra device? when one does land or maybe when ginger lands officially we'll get versions for our phone made available.
Asphalt 6 runs very well. And dungeon hunter 2 works too. I've bought Nova too once but I gave up the idea of installing it because the gameloft's politic on purchases sucks.
And I much prefer my emulators! I have a bunch of em working smoothly you should try fpse, it's great!

how did you get Asphal 6 to run? When i tried installing the tree's are black. In 3D terms alpha channels in textures aren't rendered correctly. =\
Which version of dungeon hunter did you use?
Chainfire 3d with an s-off evo3d...does it work to play tegra 2 games?

yes it works perfectly, just install the app, install the driver and let it reboot(the phone will appear to be frozen with a black screen and the capacitive buttons will be on, just let it sit for about 5 minutes then pull the battery) i have been playing a lot of thd games since s-off was achieved

Battery pulls make me nervous. Is it required?
So does this make all the tegra2 games show up in the market or do you have to track them down elsewhere?

Is Riptide in the market typically for tegra based phones? If so then it didn't show up for me after I installed everything and did the market fix.
I had to track it down. It does work flawlessly though after installing the desireHD shaders and the NVIDIA plugin.

yes it is required, if you don't pull it the phone will not turn off until you do. I have tried Galaxy on fire 2 thd, riptide, pinball thd, all of them have worked perfectly. Since these games are blocked on the 3VO market, simply go to 4shared and search for the game(ie: riptide.apk)

these each contain a .so file...
I have installed them all, but am wondering which I should default, PowerVR, or Nvidia. As far as I know, PowerVR is something to do with Tegra2, perhaps more efficient than the Nvidia T2.so ? Idk. Someone here knows... Tell us.
here is all 3... Unzip the first file, keep the .so files in the zip, and load them in CF3D (as .zips)

Has anyone else tried Galaxy on Fire 2 THD? I tried to install the SD files via wifi and 3G but kept on receiving read errors so I installed some SD files that I found on a file hosting site that claimed to be for the THD version.
I then ran the app but it's not displaying properly. It's not black and white but it's definitely unplayable with some garbled textures and missing objects like the menu. I'm pretty sure that I installed Chainfire correctly because Riptide works flawlessly with the NVIDIA plugin.

I installed the demo from the marketplace. everything installed fine for me and I was playing as soon as the Game content downloaded. (570mbs worth)
it plays smooth for the most part with all the bells and whistles turned on. chops in some spots, moving the slider down to medium during heavy screen action fixed it though, and still looked damn good.
Tegra2 required my ass! lol

Glad you got it working! I am still having problems... I successfully downloaded the SD files off WIFI and I can't see any asteroids on the first mining mission. I'll play around with the settings a bit and see if I can improve things.
update: Okay, on occasion the asteroids do show up on rare random instances when I start the app. However each time this happens, the game runs like crap and then shuts down with an error and before I can read the problem, my phone reboots.. ARGH!

I'm kind of thrown off that a large portion of games, seeming to be the premium ones, aren't available on the Razr.

GTA 3 was updated to support the razr last week.
Apply the high setting file here on XDA and you get better fps with MUCH prettier graphics.
Sentinel 3 works great at "HD" mode.
Most of the 3D games I tried work great, was one robot shooter thingy that lagged, but I blame the coders for that.
I pretty much purchased every single 10 cent game during the sale, and all of them worked fine.
I'm a bit annoyed by this too. I was hopeing to get access to Gameloft and EA Games entire library, but instead I'm left with only a few. I didn't ditch Symbian for this lol.

The Galaxy S2 series has some issues with games. HTC phones seem to play everything I've tried just fine though.
Basically the current (Blur) build has to be approved by Google. That's the response I got from the android team when I emailed them.

They're all variations of OMAP hardware, which is more or less universal, the devs pretty much only need to add a string where it says razr compatible.
Part lazy devs, part slow updates to market.

Is there anything we can do to sort of elbow our way into playing the games? On some of the Gameloft game's comments, I read of users basically spoofing their phone's model, to get the games to run. Is there any way we could do the same? I'm absolutely /dying/ to play Order & Chaos with a friend, and it's disheartening to see the devs have so little interest in bringing the game to such a popular device. I bought this phone because of it's processing power, so the fact that there are so few good games available is really depressing.
I am playing Order and Chaos on my Droid Razr with mutlisampling at 1.4ghz.
1. Find the file build.prop in /system. You will need root access and a file manager like ES File explorer to edit this file. Open the file in any text editor and change these values. ***If you are having trouble at this point google how to edit build.prop file or something...***
ro.product.board=solana
ro.product.device=cdma_solana
ro.product.model=DROID3
ro.product.name=solana_vzw
Reboot
2. Go into the android market or Gameloft's website, find your desired game and install it. ***I Found that the phone becomes very buggy at this point. My fix was to make the screen time out never, turn off data, and turn off auto rotate screen. You may not find this necessary.***
3. Once you have your game installed and working properly (make sure you have ran the game and downloaded any additional data required to play), open your build.prop file one more time and change the values back.
ro.product.board=spyder
ro.product.device=cdma_spyder
ro.product.model=DROID RAZR
ro.product.name=spyder_vzw
Reboot
Voila! Game should still work and your phone should work great.
Ummm quick question, how did you manage to OC to 1.4ghz? Any links?
Secondly, Couldnt we use some kind of market enabler instead of changing the Phone's info (name, model etc)

Thank you so much, I will definitely be trying this tomorrow. I've only two questions left:
1.) How did you purchase the game? It won't let me...
2.) Will it still let you connect to their servers? Is there anyway I could test the game first to make sure it works, before I invest in it?
I am a n00b and this forum wont let me post links. This is just what worked for me.

Anyone know of a method?
I did the same thing when the apps went on sale. The crappy thing is I bought most of their games on my phone thinking I would be able to just get them in the market when I get my prime but no.
I read somewhere that you could email them and they would give you the apk's for the games you bought if you let them know your email address and your phone number. I emailed them and I'm waiting on their reply. Granted I didn't tell them its for my prime so I'll see what they say.

be careful when editing build prop. there's a guy now who his prime is in some sort of boot loop from doing the same and hasn't been able to fix it yet.
Order and Chaos wont work, the latest update broke it when i was running it on the TF101.
Previously we had to run the Xoom version of the game to get it working, but whatever they did in the update broke it
Its seriously ****e for gameloft not to support the TF. When i did some digging about on their forums, it seemed to be due to a licence problem, IE someone wanted to charge them too much to support the TF/ TFP officially.
Stupid really as im sure TF and the TFP will have a massive share in the tablet market now.

the problem is even with the APK the game does a check when it loads to see if it's compatible, i've gotten MC3 to work but other games will just tell you they aren't compatible when you load them.
it's ****ing lame of them, and i won't support them until they change their policy. ALL tegra2 compat games will work with the prime technically.
Most companies will write games to work with OpenGL ES which means they work automatically for pretty much every phone that has the hardware to support them.
Unfortunately Gameloft had it in their heads for a while that it is a good idea to write directly for each individual phone's processor instead of just creating one copy for OpenGL and being done with it. Thus massive fragmentation ensued.
Things are a little better now, they are releasing newer games directly to the market and those are generally compatible with all devices. When I got my VZW Galaxy Nexus I was very surprised to see that all my Gameloft Games installed right away without issue. (The one exception was Modern Combat 3 which was updated a week later).
I am pretty sure that the only thing keeping these games off the transformer prime is an arbitrary compatibility check. If they work on the old transformer directly from the market they should work on the prime.
Hopefully they give me the apk's, and hope they get updated to work on the prime. Seeing as this a very popular device, hopefully it won't take long. Its the only reason I bought them
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
maybe we should do the same like people did with Asus and bootloader. start writing them and complaining to them. that by not making their games compatible for TF/TFP devices they are missing out on a huge market share. our devices are more than capable of running their games. I have all the great gameloft games on my Ipad like Modern Combat3, Nova2, Splinter Cell conviction, and lots more. I really wish I could get them for my Prime. I think if enough TF/TFP owners complained to them then we might see the results we want pretty quickly.
Uno HD showed up on my Prime
MW3 and Asphalt 6 HD do NOT show up. which is sad. those are my fav.

me soo sorry, just thought it would help more if those that have gameloft games working could explain how too others.
I use this build.prop mod by crossix on my acer a100 so the market thinks I have an a500. Can someone take a look at the lines if it looks like it will work on the Prime?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20200566&postcount=32
With this mod I'm able to see, mc3, Asphalt 6, Nova 2, backstab, Order and Chaos with my acer a100.
I purchased most of the Gameloft games during their sale (Knowing that they don't support the prime).
So far I have working :
Modern Combat 3
Spiderman HD
Hero of Spart HD
N.O.V.A 2 HD.
Not working :
Order & chaos (Downloaded data but won't update to latest version)
Asphalt 6 (Errors out whilst downloading data)
Backstab HD (Semi works - Initial download ok, game runs flawlessly though without sound (music plays, but no sound effects). After exiting and re-running the game, you have to download 2-300mb.
Dungeon Hunter - Downloaded data and installed, FC's after intro movie.
For the working games, I simply used APK's which I believe were modified for the original Transformer (Don't think I can post links, google is your friend however)
APK's will not work, unlike dead space which I can just email my samsung epic apk to the prime, install, and download sd files to play. When the gamelot apks are sent they will install and open then check the device with the gameloft servers. They then show incompatible. You can actually see the splash screen for the game in the background but gameloft is not allowing the game to go further
anyone successfully edit build.prop yet so these games will work?

Actually there's a simple work around for getting gameloft games working on Prime without editing build.prop or adding anything. As I have the new Modern Combat3 on it and it plays very well. can even play online against others. This game looks sick on Prime display.
The work around is you have to find the matching game apk. for Acer500 or Xoom device. As those have the same screen resolution. Once you get a hold of those, install, then download extra data from online. then you good to go. that simple and plays fine. Google can be your best friend
Has anyone got modern combat 3 to run on this tablet?
When I first purchased this tablet 2 months ago it was working, and then now all of a sudden it says that its not compatible.
yes, mc3 works but you must change the build prop but only if you have rooted the Sony.

Works perfect now, thanks!
FANTASTIC. This was the first build prop that i tried. Some games still dont show up like real racing(which is one of my favs and FREE). Maybe i will look into trying a few more build props, its a case of trial and error in some cases.But I am pleased i was able to help as the Sony is mainly used a a gaming devise and e-book reader.
Happy times Buddy.

I was thinking the galaxy tab would be the one to go for.. it's popularity is sure to in turn create the most compatibility with app. I haven't bothered yet due to assumin it might not work so well being 10.1 vs 9.5 inch tabs... any ideas?
I was thinking about using the Galaxy tab but went with the Acer. I may try it but the problem is that once the build prop is changed the installed games need to re download data again. Since ive got pretty much all the games I can(due to storage) installed I will wait until the external sd issue has been fixed.
I'll try the Asus Transformr Prime, Galaxy Tab 7.1 & 10.1.
The Acer build prop works for most of the games. I think the Prime would not be a good comparison as this uses a tegra 3 quad. Best to keep the build props roughly the same as the native one.
...........But you never know.
Build Prop changing ??? Very very new...
Can anyone tell me wat else this effects cause i've changed my build prop on my lg G-slate cause alot is not supported for it but will this mess anything up and once i get these games running can i change my build prop back with the games and apps still working?
In my experience once you change the build back to original then the games require the game data again or even worse they come up with incompatibility problems.Try find a build prop that has the same specs as the original device. I have never had any major problems changing the 4 lines above but thats not to say you wont. Good luck
Anyone else had any luck with build.props other than the a500? I would actually like modern combat 2 which doesn't seem to be showing with the a500 edit
You could always google for samsung 10.1 build prop. I was going to try this one but since the a500 worked for me i just left it
I downloaded the apk directly (not from Playstore) and it works fine ;-) I also bought to be fair to the developers. Great game!

Are you guys leaving your build.props modified to show a500 or are you changing back to the original Sony after you have the games installed and working?

Hi robber,
Just check it out - its very easy with v2.3 "Fake as other device" function.
One-click solution - to get Acer A500, or other one from four available devices.
Can be also reverted back as Sony with one click

Thanks. I have not played with 2.3 yet. Didn't realize that was a function. Nice.
I had to go through a lot of incompatibility problems to get it to work. i downloaded two different apks, from online. used one to download the data, juggled the data around and made it work for the second apk, if that makes any sense
This game is worth to buy.Dont understand why its not officially comatible with our tablet. Maybe because of implementation of ps3 pad drivers if yes. Btw its easy way to have it playable - my way. Its compatible with my xperia arc s so I bought game and move it on tablet. I dont see any bugs or texture loss. I also dont play on phone cause it starts heating very fast imo its not a theft. In this case it works I dont know what if you downloaded game on other device. There is also solution if game wont start after logo. Region change 2 UK on tablet setting , play and save game and revert region to this which was before. I tried play with ps3 pad -not working well. Btw2 multiplayer in this game rocks :laugh:
If we used appguard to disable mc3 to read phone state, wouldn't that work?
