[Q] [NEWBIE] Gamevil games on [email protected] - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, so I recently got my s2 yesterday and it is running 4.0.3 ICS unrooted. I got this problem with Gamevil games. So this is what happened: Most gamevil games are freemium so I dl'ed them directly from Android Market. But the problem is whenever I open these games, this shows up (imageshack.us/a/img100/701/screenshot2012092022450.png). These games are not online games (Plants Wars, Illusia 2, Zenonia 4) but I can play them just fine with internet. And I'm pretty sure that these games are not online games as I've already played them on an iOS device (former iOS user). What seems to be the problem? I need help and I'm new to Android world.

I think it just needs to check with their servers if there are any updates. Should only need it on the first launch. And welcome to Android

[Q] Playing game then it's going with no reason to Homescreen.

After playing some games like Let's Golf 3, Dungeon Hunter 2, Riptide GP,
Shadowgun, PES 2012 and TinTin the Game shut's himself off.
And it's closing with no message at all.
Just playing and then Boom, black screen and then it's going to home screen.
Anyone else have or had this problem?
I think you have a version of the game that is not for your phone !
If you have download the games from a website for free so thats it but if you bought them i don't know what is the problem

You mean TinTin quits to a black screen all of a sudden, or do all of them? Also, does your phone get hot to the touch?
I can't imagine you having bought all those games, but that's not what we're here for. Although it could be a good reason of games not working correctly because the APK you downloaded was not supposed for the SGS2.
The gameloft games are sgII versions the other ones are non tegra. But I think that
its related to many in and unstalled kernel tryings because when I firstly installed
checkrom fresh with speedmodkernel 13 everything was ok but later on I OC and Uv
and tried mAny kernels and sinds then it was happening.
Maybe someone had it to... but its ok i still can play those games and it saving auto.
When i finish these games then i do a fresh install again.
Thnx all.

[Q] Xperia Games

hi all,
does anyone know if the xperia games can be ported/played on the GS2.
my friends xperia came with crash bandicoot and its great,
anyway i can install on my GS2?
ive played many uncompatible games with chainfire, but i copied out the apk from the xperia but cant even get it to install.
thanks.
It's a PSone game, for which there are emulators on the market. Then if you own the original game, you can rip it and play it on your phone.
are you sure its the PSone version?
graphics seemed a whole lot better on the xperia.
i have the emulator installed and the crash games.

Non-Compatible games in Play Store

Hi, since ICS rollout, i've upgraded to it. So, the thing is, when i did have my Galaxy S2 i bought some games, and now with my RAZR i can't play some of those games, like NFS Hot Pursuit, 9mm, NOVA2, Play Store says my games are not compatible with the device.
So, what can i do? When i was in Gingerbread i had this same problem with Asphalt 6, but when i upgraded to ICS Asphalt 6 is now playable. So i think that i really can play thos other games. But how to by pass this? How to remove this restriction?
Anyone???
Thanks!!
PD: Sry for my english.

Did you ever make a ti backup while you were using a compatible device? If you did you could restore app & data and it should run fine. If not you could search out how to make a build.prop edit to spoof a compatible device, be sure to copy your original and name it build.prop.bak first.

I tried changing ro.product.name and brand for Samsung's GT-I9100 (tried i9100 too and samsung in caps and not) but nothing, erased cache of Play Store but nothing, i now that editing build.prop is working cuz i did it with lcd density and it changed so is nothing to do with Root Browser and file not saving well or anything like that.
But, wanna play my games, wanna play NOVA2, Modern Combat 2, Need For Speed, 9mm, i payed for those games, too bad that a great device, a powerful device like the RAZR "can't" handle this games.
Finally did it!
Just edited the ro.product.model / brand / name / device lines in build.prop tu Nexus S and samsung, so now got all the games 9mm is working perfectly, not need to use Chainfire!

[Q] Is there any way to convert incompatible apps?

I am quite new to android. First I was borrowing my mom's Samsung GT-B5350 Chat that's v running on ICS. I've been playing games there like Minecraft and other cool games. A year later my dad won a Huawei Ascend Y220-U10 running on 2.3.6 in a raffle draw which he gave to me as a present. Since then I was very much annoyed of incompatible games due to the hardware and software specs of my phone. I've been able to install minecraft 0.10.0 from 4shared but when I download it from the playstore, it just says "parse error". It doesn't say anything about my incompatible device. There too were other apps that had the same problem like Asphalt 7 & 8, Real Racing 3, and other apps.
Is there a black magic program or something to convert these apps to make them comoatible to my device?

Old Android Games Preservation Help?

Hi Forum,
I found my ancient Sony Ericsson Xperia Play and decided to fire it up. I'd totally forgotten that during the prime of this device I was a little obsessed with acquiring all sorts of obscure ports and games from several niche markets (mostly in Japan) and wouldn't you know it - I still had them on the device and had backups from Titanium Backup still stored on the SD. Sadly, most, if not all of these games do not run on modern Android and I'm hoping maybe some astute folks out there can decompile these things, work some magic, and repack them?
Many of these games include support for the Xperia Play controls which predates the modern usage of gamepads under Android. Alas, if this aspect could be tweaked to run on generic controls, that would up the radness!
Anyway, here's the list of booty I had on the device. I paid for each and every one of these back in the day. Some of them so rare, you might not believe it to be real! All of these have been long since abandoned by the publishers and don't exist on any storefronts anymore.
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Devil May Cry 4 - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Ghost n' Goblins: Gold Knights - Acquired from the Play Store, Android Market at the time, from Japan.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light - Acquired from the Play Store. I think a more modern updated one exists on the Play Store anyway.
N.O.V.A 2 HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Silent Hill: The Escape - Touchscreen game. Pretty sure I got this from Android Market (Play Store) from the Korea storefront.
SimCity Deluxe HD - Purchased this from EA direct. Touchscreen only.
Spider-Man: Total Mayhem HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Starfront Collision - Some shameless StarCraft rip-off I purchased from GameLoft. Touchscreen only.
Worms - Purchased direct from EA as Play Store version didn't have Xperia Play controls.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Star Battalion HD - Some game I got from GameLoft. Can't recall much about it.
Biohazard 4 / Resident Evil 4 - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
Monster Hunter - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
FIFA 10 and Madden 10 - Acquired direct from EA as their store had the Xperia Play control version.
And finally... probably the coolest one of the lot due to rarity alone (IMHO).
Ridge Racer Accelerated - This is the same game as the PSP / iOS port. I remember acquiring this was like pulling teeth at the time as only Namco's shortlived Banadroid Market in Japan had it. It was never sold on any regional front of the Play Store. The only port that existed on the Japanese Play Store was for a specific device the SH-009 or something... some stereoscopic 3D phone that had a Nintendo DS effect and that port was exclusive to the hardware. This port, however, was Android device generic. I even recall on the Xperia Play forum here on XDA years ago some members didn't think this existed and would attempt to "correct" me that the ONLY version was this SH-009 exclusive and it won't run. How wrong they always were...
The game did have two oddities. First, it would only run on Gingerbread. When I used CyanogenMod back then to jump to ICS and JB the game would boot but at the load screen it would draw some message about wrong android version (in Japanese), so this wasn't an Android OS error but some strange check by the game itself. Second, it would ask for a username and password which was used to quickly check-in with the Banadroid market. Obviously, my legit credentials don't work anymore as that market is long since dead.
Anyways, long winded crap over. Please let me know any thoughts that industrious souls amongst you might have.
PS: I'll have to dig around more but I also recall having Civilization Revolution 1 and a few other games which were acquired from the Korean storefront.
would you upload the backup files? someone can make work on newest devices
