Recently I downloaded N.O.V.A 3-Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance ..and gameplay is superb without any lags..its Smooth as Silk on my Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 running Stock ICS 4.0.3 XXLPQ firmware with CF-Root without any Overclock or GPU tweaks.
As most of You guys probably know about the "Gameloft Multiplayer Over 3G trick", which is working probably for all gameloft games...except N.O.V.A 3 which I noticed today.
I tried the same with Modern Combat 3 and N.O.V.A 2 and Multiplayer seems to work without Wi-Fi.
However tried many times with N.O.V.A 3 and it keeps failing. I think its not only me having this problem.
Anyone got ideas how to get this game's Multiplayer over 3G..???
Any help will be much Appreciated.
Thanx

I am trying to find the same solution. Nothing has worked on my s3, on my old iPhone 4 I could play nova 3 multiplayer on 3g easily with cydia apps can't believe there's no android app to trick 3g as WiFi...
Try these:
1. Create a .txt file
2. Name the file: qaWifiOnlyMode
3. Open the file with text editor and type: FALSE
4. save the file
5. Copy the file ( qaWifiOnlyMode.txt) to the root of your internal and external SD cards.
6. Reboot
7. Then try the game again

Thanks for the response I've tried that trick before but I tried again following your instruction and still no luck

Lol....I posted that on June when I had no Wi-Fi connection, xD
I got a Wifi last month and I'm enjoying Multiplayer..
Only way to make Multiplayer work is to connect to a good Wi-Fi connection....

Yeah I have slow WiFi at home but I would have thought the whole point of playing on your phone was to play a quick match when your out and about... still thought a common tweak for iPhone would be on android for sure.

Its really a pain as I too have a Slow WiFi connection...and can only play matches of 10min without any connection drops...:/

Yeah. portable gameplay requires it to work on 3g dats when you are outside and wanna have some fun. If you have to stay home to play the game, you might as well play on our computer than a mobile!

Bought it for my touchpad, works flawlessly. Can't get it to work on SGSII-ATT - when starting new game, freezes on about 2%.
Anyone else have this issue?
Ok, looks like I had the wrong cache.
Download this cache: http://www.multiupload.com/G58745X0U5
Put into /sdcard/Android/data/
Install chainfire3d
Install chainfire3d driver
Check "unroll textures" in chainfire3d
Play game without any lag
EDIT: The above is not relevant. You don't need chainfire to run this game with no lag, I just had some freak glitch in the beginning.
Works fine for me
works good for me too. i dont even need chainfire
Working good here, no chainfire as well.
OP, thx for bringing this to my attention as well.
How are you getting it? I don't see it. Do I need to get shady

Works great here with no chainfire needed.
That's weird.. working here. I am running completely stock though, fwiw.
Got the apk off ipmart and post-500mb-data download, everything works great!
On a side note, this is really grand! A proper game port on something so thin... Today's tech really amazes me thinking 2-3 years back.

What this is is just the .set file from the tegra2 game data build. I don't know why they lumped the SGS2 with all the low-end phones, because it's not lagging at all even with 2dfx on.

Is there any way to make games compatible with the SGS III?
I try to install Dungeon Hunter 3 (free) as well as some other good
games like Mass Effect Infiltrator, etc. and it says device not supported
or incompatible when obvious the SGS III can more than handle the
game that works on the SGSII. Any way to force it to work?

In the future please post questions in the Q & A section instead of development, thanks.
In addition to the multiple replies of where this should be, you can try backing up your build prop > changing the device to a known device model the game works on > try to play it.
Basically how we got the netlfix app to work way back when.
thanks, and sorry

the other way to do so is if someone hacks the app so it doesn't do the device check

Wrong section but I'll throw you a bone since I'm noobish as well...if rooted only you can download a script editor and in there you can change the model to whatever you want....worked great for me on my note...only other way would be piracy which we here do not and will not tolerate...plus I have has customers of mine tell me they tried that and it didn't work...so yea, root, something like jota+ or explorer, build.prop, find something like model or w.e. and delete tour phone model and then make it whatever model you want...for a more step by step approach search the notes forum for build.prop editor for games I think its in NBA jam under themes & apps....good luck dude and watch this haha

Chain3D won't help. The game lags, end of story. Adding additionnal processes on top of the game itself won't help at all. If you see an improvement, then it's a placebo effect (source: Chainfire himself)

You need to use the root/offline method or use the apk by muzhiwan. Then you need to change date to 2010 to make it work sounds weird but it does! Same goes for spiderman, although with spideeman you can instead deny "read phone state" permission to make it run

Maybe you guys need to be on complete stock? It's a shot in the dark but something may be interfering with your game.
Or the game thinks that you don't have enough RAM. It sometimes happens when you play heavy games. Clear RAM and try again.
I just wanted to start a topic on tegra 3 and other games that work on the galaxy S4. Last night I did a little testing with a few Tegra games on the S4 that are not in the play store on the device that worked.
(Update) To find almost all games in Play Store follow thes 8 steps Carefully.
(I AM NOT RESPONSABLE IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE OR MESS YOUR PHONE UP. TAKE YOUR TIME)
1. Download this file. (Its used for another fix but helps us also
http://www.4shared.com/zip/66jo-mIz/Multi_DPI_Play_Store_416_for_J.html
2. Move zip file to internal SD Card
3. Reboot into revovery and flash Multi DPI Play store.zip with CWM or whatever flashing tool you use besides the stock then reboot.
4. Download ES File Explorer.
5. Hit menu and then "Root Explorer"
6. Hit "Mount R/W" (I just mount all 4 and press ok)
7. Now go back to main screen and tap the top bar and pick "Device" (so yoyur not searching the Sd the actual "Device" partition for system files.)
8. Look at the folders displayed below and tap the one that says "System"
9. Tap/Open the "build.prop" file with a text editor of your choice.
10. Change the line that says:
(ORIGINAL)
ro.product.device=..............
(The ... stands for whatever your device is. Its different for every one so I just put .... as an example)
(NEW/CHANGE TO **Only use one of these and dont copy whats in brackets**)
ro.product.device=softwin (Fakes JXD S7300b)(Recommended)
ro.product.device=olympus (Fakes Motorola Atrix)
ro.product.device=d2att (Fakes Samsung Galaxy S3 on att)
ro.product.device=grouper (Fakes Nexus 7 Tablet)
ro.product.device=tf300t (Fakes Asus Transformer Pad)
ro.product.device=GT-P7500 (Fakes Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1)
ro.product.device=maguro (Fakes Samsung Galaxy Nexus)
ro.product.device=tf201 (Fakes Asus Transformer Prime)
(Make sure you change what comes after the equals sign to "softwin/olympus/d2att/etc" no spaces)
11. Save, restart your phone.
12. Go to Aplication Manager in your settings. Clear data for Google Play Store.
FINALLY check the Play Store for a ton of new apps. Give it a few minutes to add the new apps well your searching. Takes a few minutes to see the changes and new apps!!!!!!!!!
ENJOY AND REPORT BACK IF THIS HELPS
So far ive found out that:
The Dark Knight Rises = Workes perfect so far. Great graphics.
(New) Dead Trigger = Working good no issues ive notice. Still trying it out but seems really good and fast loading.
(New) Gangstar Rio = Running perfect.
(New) Samurai II Vengeance = Working good, no issues as of yet.
(New) N.O.V.A 3 = Runs amazing havent had any issues.
(New) Wild Blood = Works fine. No issues at all.
(New)The Amazing Spider-Man = Working good. To bad drawing distance wasnt increased for the game seeing as the s4 has so much ram
(New) Rayman Jungle Run = Works great no issues. Looks nice on the S4.
Real Boxing = WORKING FOR THE FIRST TIME :~)
9mm = NOT WORKING. Non compatible message. Still trying different versions.
NBA Jam = NOT WORKING.
Wanted to add to the list Tegra games that can be bought in the app store (just for reference):
Riptide GP = Works great. Max out graphics settings in options for water splashed on screen, better waves and all around better graphics.
I know theres more in the Play Store just cant remember right this second.
Anyone who has tested Tegra games not purchasable and purchasable in the Play Store feel free to add to the list or do your own testing with different app Could be useful later on, obv the S4 can handle these games.

Buy a Moga controller online it is compatible with most games. Download the Moga app to ger an idea of what games are compatible. Basically all the games ive been testing have been updated to work wirh the Moga controller. Looks like an xbox controller with a mount for yoyr cell phone atached.
