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?
How do u install the plugins?

Per the instructions in the thread, which is linked from the market entry?
EDIT: plugins are in post 3 of the Chainfire 3D thread, by the way.
EDIT 2: hmm... those look like just source files on that thread. Sorry about that. You'll probably have to search for 'em. But they're out there. Trust me.
Ok so i installed the plugins but when i click one them and go back into the game it dosnt make a difference, niether nivdia or qulacoma. Do i have to reboot or somthing?

No. In chainfire 3d,go to default opengl settings, use plug in, and select one.
Ok so i install the plugins then i select it then launch the game then it just force closes?
Any ideas

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.

Hi.. I have tried installing Worms by EA Games. It downloads and installs right, but then it tries to download files to update the game, and then breaks.. I tried another EA Game (FIFA 2010) and the same happens..
Has anybody been able to install any EA Games successfully from the Market?
Thanks!
Same here im going to.look where ea puts the files on my evo and see if i can copy them over

I couldn't get FIFA to work using this method, although Worms works just fine. FIFA always crashes back to the launcher upon start...
Got FIFA to work, you need to install the apk instead of just moving it to system/apps. Or at least that's what I did to end the crash at start problem.

Now I realized that it installs, but the problem is when trying to download the extra 40 MB of content, it won't let me.. Is there any way you could upload the extra data somewhere?
The extra stuff should be either in sdcard/android/data/Com.eamobile.fifa/files or /data/data/com.eamobile.fifa/files
I'll try when I get home, my work blocks all of the filesharing sites, what's a good free one to host it to? Or I could just rar it in ~10mb chunks and email it to you, whichever is easiest.

Guys, this is not piracy, it's a new "Gold App Sale" by Getjar. There's some great apps in there too!
the only thing i cant get to download on the TP is Tapatalk

Seems like some cool apps here not sure how to get them on the touchpad though as it doesn't seem to be a supported device.. Any ideas? Where do I get the getjar app I don't see it on their page anywhere...
use the default android browser and make sure you have it set to mobile. when you browse to http://m.getjar.com it will auto download the apk and you can install that way

Same here, get the message "no compatible downloads for unknown android 2.3"
Sent from my Touchpad using xda premium
I was able to get Tapatalk, although it gave me an error the first time I tried.
I was also having issues downloading at first using Dolphin browser, but using the stock browser it worked just fine. The first time I tried to DL an app, it said I needed GetJar and linked me to the file.
do you think you can use your PC browser and the quick download code and post it here? what device do you have it set to? I'm currently set on "Free Download".

they're different in the fact that they are currently updated very slowly... getjar just made it available to have developers push their updates... before, you had to know there was an update and redownload the app... i got my first push yesterday, so i see it's working
getjar makes money by sponsors... you'll see them throughout the site
Same problem as other, when i search/enter the code for the app (in my case it's Tweetcaster Pro, Tapatalk and Splashtop Remote Desktop) i get the "no compatible version for my device" text which is ridiculous because i have a Captivate and the Android Market shows those apps just fine. Any ideas? Can someone post the .apk i mean if they are free its not illegal right? And also if i get the .apk, will it update automatically when with the new push system from GetJar?

Thanks, it only worked for Splashtop, TweetCaster Pro and Tapatalk keep saying the device is not compatible i mean wtf!?!? I tried with GS II and Galaxy Nexus and both say not compatible. Anyone that has already downloaded Tapatalk from the GetJar app can tell me the device they are using and the name code so i can modify the Build.prop and download the app.
ro.product.model=GT-i9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
it has worked with everything in getjar... i have a crash here and there but they all have downloaded...
if you've changed this... reboot... it took awhile for google's android market to see the change... i probably restarted 3 times... even went into webos once and back to cm7...
the only thing i've had a problem with working at all (it did download) is Advanced Task Manager
i get:
Sorry! The application Advance Task Manager (process con.arron.taskManager) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
edit:
just tried another app... Aces Jewel Hunt downloaded and installed but closes right after the splash screen opens
Yhea i tried with that. i wasn't able to download the Splashtop before changing the build.prop and after changing that and rebooting i could. But i couldn't download the other two apps, i mean i even tried going on the browser to getjar.com and changed my device to the i9100 and even there i can't seem to get the code for the download because i get the same message that my device isn't compatible and im talking about the PC browser. Im gonna change again to the i9100 on the phone and wait a day or so and try again from the app, i don't understand why i have to do all this the app should be compatible.
Thanks again for the suggestions though

Changing Device ID to galaxy s will be helping in playing incompatible games from gameloft & other vendors
You can play: mc3 & other games that weren't working earlier
You need (bild.prop editor)
code.google.com/p/net-widgetron-propeditor/downloads/detail?name=PropEditor-0.3.apk
Install this, Open & then backup orignal file..
& then you are ready to edit - find these lines & edit like this
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.product.model=GT-I9000
(only manufacturer & model are necessary you might edit other if you want to..)
ro.product.name=GT-I9000
ro.product.device=GT-I9000
ro.product.board=GT-I9000
ro.product.brand=samsung
after editing save file & restart your device... that's done..
now visit gameloft http://wapshop.gameloft.com site to see if this trick is really working...
just rebooted it with the mod see if it works.......
Yes!! Got past the part where it says device is incompatible now downloading the data for MC3..........

Good luck with that, actually i don't have a galaxy player but want to help you guys, do tell others about this
This works well. It also lets us see apps that were hidden in the market before like go launcher ex and adw ex.
Dudes, do as OP says, only with GT-I9100 instead of GT-I9000, then go to Samsung apps and you can get loads of Gameloft games... FOR FREE! This is perfectly legal, unless Samsung is pirating them, lol!
Edit: Oh, I see, those are just trials, still, test out the game before you buy it!
Edit2: a member brought it to my attention that it might not be such a wise idea to trick the market into thinking your device is a dual core 1.2ghz device, so this might not be such a good idea.
Well I went on to the site and its says that my device is I9000 but on the market it says my device is still incompatible with other apps. I only left the ro.product.brand=samsung since it was the same. Did I do anything wrong? Could it be the custom rom I'm running?

You know, it is interesting; using this, many apps that didn't show on the market now show; however, there are still certain apps that do not show up. Adw launcher is one, jeopordy is also not. There are others, but I forget what they were. This makes the market think you are a nexus, witch I thought were supposed to get all apps, but I guess there are even apps that the nexus doesn't get, oh well. As long as gameloft games show, I'm happy!
Can someone post the edited build.prop file they changed? I did it and it recognized it as a Galaxy S but made it so my swype was a "limited" trial and now Swype won't work =(
Also, the market didn't change app compatibility wise, just on Gamelofts website only.
i did everything you said but its not working...you have solution?
So if i changed the model number to the gqlaxy nexus then would i be able to download:chrome?
I tried installing the chrome apk, it just gives the "problem parsing package" error. Guess it only works on ics.
where i need to write those lines?i have a lot of stuff there
I have the app downloaded, paid for the video so I can watch it on my computer. But on my Note the video won't play. It just shows a little puzzle piece with a question mark, spins for a while, then dumps me back into the app. Anyone have luck getting this video going on our Notes yet? Might not be compatible

Thanks, a re-install of Flash fixed it. I did have Flash installed, but it was restored from TiBu, so perhaps that was it. Although all other flash in the browser worked just fine. Oh well.

Works for me
I use the March Madness On Demand on both my iPhone and Note. The only thing is there is about a 20 second difference between devices. (Ex. shot clock it at 10s on the iPhone and at 30s on my Note)
So I noticed, that Samurai vs Zombies Defence is free today, I tried downloading and it would not let me download saying its incompatible, there are couple other apps which are known to be compatible but the app store wont let you download it, I googled and noticed there is way to change the buid properties, which lets you download any app.
These are changes to build.prop file and they worked for me, I have tested it on my note and I would request someone else willing to take a risk and test this.
Requirements
1.) Phone should be rooted
So first step is to kill the Google Play App and clear data from
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Google Play Store > Clear Data.
After this open Root Explorer and goto
System> build.prop
Now I'd suggest making a back up and keep it in the sd card, (if your using Root Explorer it will also make a backup)
In case system is not Mounted as R/W do so in root explorer from the top right hand side.
Edit the file and look for
ro.product.model =
and change it to
ro.product.model = SAMSUNG-Galaxy Nexus
In the orginial article this was changed to Nexus S, I tried that, but it dint work for my phone.
Before anyone use it, I'd request a brave soul to try this, I dont think this is big deal but some testing would help.
Thanks!

Having established that Google has NFI what's compatible with my device, I'm pretty keen to perform this hack (I have a Galaxy Mini; I guess I should call it a Galaxy S or something?)...
Only trouble is, I see Root Explorer is a paid app. Is ES File Explorer (or another free app) able to remount read-only partitions as R/W?
I can't find any documentation to help me understand its interface.

Your issue is probably not device name but:
ro.product.locale.region=xx
Change it to the region of that app. Reboot your phone and try again.
