Gingerbread + Gameloft HD Games = ? - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

Sorry if this has been posted in this section, I couldn't find it and neither could the "Here are the similar threads we found:" dohicky.
After playing a few games today on a friends SGS and being blown away by the "playability" of said games I took to the Gameloft website to get me some.
After buying Eternal Legacy and Dragon Hunter 2 I found I had to update the games over wifi to play, bummer.
Home from work to find that after updating over wifi both the apps force close
without even giving a reason.
My friends' got standard kies froyo, I however have gingerbread, could this be the reason for the FC would anyone know?
Any simple way to fix? Long shot I know but who knows when gameloft will get back to me....
Thanks for any ideas

I had this issue too, but i guess we will have to wait for an update from the game creators...

Gameloft games working fine for me, even with Gingerbread (XWJVB)! Playing Starfront, Eternal Legacy and Dungeon Hunter 2!

Asphalt 6 worked for me but was terribly laggy and would occasionally lock up the phone, gone back to froyo for now..

Games on JVB don't work for me smoother comparing to froyo. The best example is exactly Asphalt. Lags, not much fps... just crap.
In Neocore I've got same result as I have on froyo, but in Quadrant Advanced the 3d graphics bar is a bit shorter... Drivers, hm? Don't know, but froyo is better for games atm. Although I stay on 2.3.3 for now.

samehere.. dungeon hunter worked fine on froyo but after updating to gingerbread got prob on D2H now..

You see this brings me to a question I was literally going to look up this second.
Darkys and multiple other roms list their roms as "3D fixed", I guess this might address some of the issues some are experiencing. I just dumped Darkys in favour of a Doc Kitchen JVB and was wondering if there is a CWM mod that'll fix the 3D? Or a kernel? Since mine is still DarkCore 2.2 since it didn't overwrite it with the Fugu I chose in the kitchen...
Anyone care to weigh in.

I have a rather weird experience with Asphalt 6. My standard ROM is Debus G1, rfs with the default kernel. Asphalt was working decently, just until I flashed a TW4 mod. After that, it will crash when I hit the "career" button. On the other hand, HAWX is working flawlessly no matter what. Any thoughts?
Edit: even weirder, disabled the SGS2 lwp and Asphalt stopped crashing! I smell memory issues..

Anyone tried any Gameloft games on JVH yet?

GB sucks up a hell lot of RAM in comparison to 2.2.1. I wouldn't be surprised if the freezes are caused by a lack of memory.

Gingerbread + Gameloft HD Games = kissing hugging ***king ))
on ginger jvh lagfixed, gameloft hd games are working.. asphalt 6 is working for me better that with froyo with lagfix

Final Fantasy IX on psx4droid

edit: nevermind, problem fixed. For future reference, anyone getting garbled graphics followed by the game crashing near the beginning of the game should enable "Divide Counters"
How well does psx4droid work on the G2/DZ ?

other than that it's fine i guess...

it does work well. the only problem is getting the games to work. it only uses certain file formats so you aim to find roms already in those file formats.
the only game i have so far is command and conquer red alert. where do you guys find games that dont need to be modified much to work with psx4droid?
Version
What version of psx4 were you using? Iv got the lite version and the new 2.0 version. Some games play good in lite and some play better in 2
Wait for fpse, should be landing tonight hopefully and allegedly improves performance drastically.
Fpse is 100x better than psx4droid.

I have to agree, fpse has perfect performance on my DZ, and the compatibility is far better than psx4droid. I couldn't even get psx4droid to function properly running CM7.
So have you beaten ozma yet?...

[Q] SGS2 and Asphalt6 and Riptide

Hello!
I have installed Chainfire 3D and THD Games like
Fruit Ninja HD
Samurai 2
Backbreaker HD (with pixelfailures but still working)
are running!
Riptide
Is Riptide working with the Patch of Chainfire?
Some People say that the game is running..
When i start the App i see a black screen and then the app is closed!
Asphalt6(Gameloft):
Is there any chance to get the game running on my SGS2?
When i go on gameloft.com (with SGS2) and click on "BUY" Asphalt6, then i get a message from T-Mobile: This service is currently not available!
This message i got 3-4 days ago!
Is it possible to play the game on SGS2 or not? -.-
Thank you and cu!
I've got Asphalt 6 HD and it's running fine on my Galaxy SII. I bought it of my either O2 or Virgin Sim I don't rememnber which though. I got it for a pound aswell which is a bargin.
Asphalt6 works on my gs2 untouched o2 phone.
It doesnt seem to be super responsive though. I found asphalt 5 on my gs worked better than this. Could just be how the game runs on anything.
I have the same problem with riptide, just closes.
Since chainfire app update and installing the shaders Riptide is working perfectly and the graphics are amazing.
The first game, which is very beautiful.
Asphalt6 HD is working, but the graphics aren't very nice ..
yup latest update fixed riptide closing problem for me.... Give it a shot!
Are you trying Reptide demo or full version? Because demo didnt work for me, full version did. This has been confirmed by the creator Chainfire 3D.. Dont know if the demo works now.
Anyway, the full version works! And its worth it... More then just good graphics!
Yes very nice graphics, but a car racing game, like Asphalt6HD with the quality of RiptideGP would be very nice for me.
Because Riptide is only racing aroung maps, nothing else..
In Asphalt6 you are able to tune your car, change cars ect.
Asphalt6 graphics are not much better than "nonHD" games..
The RipTide demo works fine _if_ you install the shaders. Find the shaders for the full version of the game, and rename the 3 files inside the .ZIP replacing "blue" with "bluedemo". Install the resulting file into Chainfire3D and the demo then works.
yep asphalt 6 works fine, try to get the apk from their website
dont know about the other game
finally a solution! lol
hi,
I'm able to start riptide, but the game itself is nearly black with some pixels. I installed chainfire and the shaders. I also tried the tegrad-libs (which a working cause I can play pinball which doesn't work without tegra-libs).
any solution? :-(

My bad experience with Android games

Hello,
i have installed 3 games on my sg2:
Cordy https://market.android.com/details?id=com.silvertree.cordy Beautifull game, but i have force close..
HexDefense http://www.hexdefense.com/ Good game, but it alway freeze after 5/10mns
Armored defense https://market.android.com/details?...oid.armoreddefense.game&feature=search_result
Force close at the start of the game..
I'm really disappointed with android games, for the moment, i'm coming from an iphone 4
What do you think?
Thanks for your suggestion.
I have cordy installed myself. No force closes for me
Havent tried either of the other 2 games
I currently have Can knockdown 2, peggle, zuma, samurai 2:Vengence, worms, Cut the rope, Plants vs Zombies and Hero of Sparta (poor game) installed and running without issues.
Am much happier with the games than i thought i would be. Samurai 2 is Phenomenal!
Sorry to hear bout your problems, but i would put forward that its either the version you are downloading or else a problem with your phone....
Only thing i've had problems with so far is Pandora Radio
EDIT This Post may be of some use to your search aswell
Thanks for your reply.
Can i see log files or something like that to see where is the problem?
my current fav games are
myth defence, fieldrunners [ios version now on android] and paradise island.
oh and angry birds of course, and now cut the rope too!
all work great, no problems
Rumble
If u turn off all in settings in hex defence - it will work normal
I don't know about the games you mention, but some games haven't been yet optimized for SGS II.
Or it could be something wrong with the configuration of your phone (rom, kernel etc)
Besides the above:
Armored defense https://market.android.com/details?...oid.armoreddefense.game&feature=search_result
Force close at the start of the game..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It says at the market: KNOWN ISSUE: The first time the game load could run very slow in some phones (Galaxy S, …). SOLUTION: exit the game (phone BACK button) and restart it
my games are cordy, majesty, battleheart, dropwords,speedx 3d, reversi and naval clash.
no problems whatsoever. in fact cordy looks better and plays faster than a psp game.

[Q] Snes Emulation woes - Latency and Emulation problems

Hello all.
I am having problems with emulation on my newly purchased xperia play.
I downloaded snesoid because I was recommended to get it by a friend *and apparently the internet is crazy about it*. When I tried playing Megaman X on it, there was very noticeable slowdown. The first stage *highway* ran at noticeably slower speeds than it did on the snes. It was playable, but felt sluggish. At first I was okay with this, but then I played it on my friend's phone just to test it out, and his was runninghttp://media.xda-developers.com/images/editor/menupop.gif it perfectly.
Does anyone know why that may be?
I also downloaded snes9x ex to test it out, and the app runs great! Problem with this app, unfortunately, is the VERY noticeable input latency. It makes platformers really odd to play on with.
I tried Seiken Densetsu 3 on Snesoid as well, and that game glitches out every conversation that comes up. The screen will flicker for a second. Very jarring.
Has anyone else experienced these kind of things with theirs, and if so, does anyone know a fix for this?
If this is phone specific, I am just going to return it since it only has been a day and just get a new one, but I want to make sure I can't do anything to fix it on my end before hand, this way I can at least learn something about these phones if there is a fix I CAN do at home, since I currently am a huge phone noob.
Something very interesting I just noticed.
Just tried Megaman X2 and X3 and those games run perfectly.
Color me confused.
Yea, SNES9x plays better with less glitches, but has noticeable button lag. Took forever for me to beat DKC, especially the mine cart stages.
Im sorry to hear about your problem mate but mine seems to run all of the games perfectly smooth. Ive had no such issues yet regarding the snesoid emulator.
If you feel strongly about it I would suggest trying out a new sexplay.
Also note the programs you have running in your running services log. Something there may be interfering with your gameplay. I can't seem to use Swiftkey X on my Xplay as it causes lag that kills the experience on nearly every game I play.
But the button lag is something you will have to deal with on any XPlay and SNES9x. Unfortunate, and hopefully will be fixed by the author at some point.
Is there button input lag with Snes A.D (free emulator on market) ?
Could someone test it for me ? I'm supposed to get the phone next week, and I chose it especially for emulation so I'd be disappointed if there are any issues with SNES games.
Have had not any issues with these games.
I use SnesOid and TigerSNES - both free.
same here,gensoid running silky smooth,fpse running perfectly fine,tiger arcade for th e most games also good,but imho useless cause no dip switch access or neo geo rom settings(tried that mame4all but no thanks,seems it support only legacy roms,don`t wanna convert all my roms for that program,the few that were running on mame4all were also laggy)
but snesoid(latest version) isn`t running good,as i stated in another thread.
for example super castlevania 4,it doesn`t matter if frameskip is on or off,set to manual or auto,it`s far away from running smooth,there is a slight stuttering when you look at the background as your character moves forward-also numerous other games..tried snes 9x or what is called,realized it doesn`t load any of my snes roms because it cant read .zip files,only .smc and even with .smc it won`t open some roms.i`ll try this tiger snes now
Hated SNES A.D. looking for a good emu right now too.
when u complain about noticeable input lag in snes9x, what kind of games are u playing? ive never really had any issues with it since its around a 10th of a second (tbh i doubt id ever of noticed it playing things like super metroid)
all of my games are in .zip files and ive never had any issues with the emulator at all, destroys snesoid imo. i do hope that the input lag is fixed, but overall i think its a much better emulator than anything else available.
I sure would like to try snes9x.... can't find it though! Little help?

i noticed just earlier after i posted realizing i hadn't received an update in some time. It appears to have been removed from the market, odd considering that all his other emulators are still there and one of his main selling points was compliance with the gpl of snes9x (the reason it was free as opposed to his other emulators)
the website is http://www.explusalpha.com/home
Robert Brogalia is the devs name, check out his other apps, they all get fantastic feedback.
Oh my god! This emulator is amazing! Everyone get it. This should just come on the phone..... LOL
Sent from my R800a using xda premium
u can change the dpi of the menus, turn off that shocking linear filtering that snesoid and all them use(i like me some retro blockiness) and it doesnt appear but when scrolling through lists thumb scroll works just fine.
Looks like I have to start over on Zelda, guess the saves are different from snesnoid. So worth it though.
Sent from my R800a using xda premium
u just have to change the extention to the same one used in snes9x...if i recall snesoid uses .sav, snes9x uses .sma or something, i got all mine working so if u fiddle u should get it, afaik quicksaves are a no-go however, just the battery backup works.
Snesoid is based on the snes9x source anyway......
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
if people are finding solutions that work better for them thats a good thing, i dont care if the source is the same, i find it to be a better emulator. i will say i initially bought all yonghz apps including n64oid.
Goping back on topic i just got myself a Play today, and i have major problems with games on gameboid, genesoid, snesoid theyw ill jump around and skip frames. I know why it's becuase it has frameskip set to 2 by default. If i set it to 0 then the audio produces an annoying stuttering and clicking. I just don't belive this ive seen thousands of videos showing th performance and sound of the games and its perfect. Ive even rooted and stripped my Play of some apps too. Now im really at wits end this thing wont emulate any game perfectly... What can i do????

Trust me mate, I've tried everything on both of my Xperia Plays. One stock, and one overclocked to 1.6ghx with CyanogenMod 7.
I'm at the same stage... I set games to 0 frameskipping and most games run perfectly, however if I enable the sound I get this horrible crackle (and with TigerMAME 3.0.3 noticable lag spikes - which is a damn shame). I think most of these emus need optimising for Xperia Play.
'Perfect' is such an over-used term these days... However these are the best emus of the bunch in my opinion... Trust me, I'm extremely anal when it comes to emulation.
TigerMAME 3.0.3 - With sound disabled can run games like Gigawing and Mars Matrix perfectly. I really hope the audio can be optimised. I'm currently playing the above two games with my own music playing in the background until then. Also, I believe older versions of Tiger run more games than this release...
MAME4Droid - Good for games which fall under the old MAME romset. Most games run smooth with audio (a lot of older games run perfectly) and the amount of CPU/audio customisation is unrivaled.
SNES9X EX - Runs games perfectly (excluding the Mode-7 heavy titles), with only slight audio crackle... Hoping for this to be resolved soon.
MD.EMU - The best Genesis/Megadrive emu around, same dev as SNES9X EX. Does the job where others fail (ie: near perfect Sonic 3 performance). Some audio problems here also.
GBAoid - Seems to work perfectly with everything I've tried. I need to put more research into GBA emu.

[Q] List of the games that are not supported

Okey, I found out there are some games (most common gameloft games) that do not work on this phone, or they work but only with mods and some of them have lag issues.
I've made this thread so we can put the list on, and not be suprised when they try to download them from store, or they have weak performance.
So, can we get the list of the games that are incompatible with HOX or HOX+ ?
if you have some of these games then write them here
N.O.V.A. 3 - heavy lag
GTA 3 - laggy
Batman The Dark Knight Rises - laggy
Asphalt 7 - laggy
The Amazin Spiderman - bit laggy
Wild Blood - heavy lag
Mostly Gameloft games.
If somebody experienced same thing with different game, post it up.
GTA3 runs fine for me on CM10 with ncx's kernel and on my mate's HOX which is running ICS ARHD with stock kernel...
do you have rooted device? if you install a non-stock rom you won't have these lags! as i know, they're persistent only on the firsts ics roms

No, my phone is not rooted. I'm on JB though.
@Azurael
I know that, but on sense 4.1 is painful experience.. And I hate HTC for making only 8 apk to be multitasked.
