Cool, but asphalt 6 doesn't even download cuz it's not optimized for our device. I downloaded Need for speed and it's free but it's just a trial,

That's odd. Asphalt 6 installed fine for me. But NFS was a trial :-(

Did it?? Are u rooted? Maybe it's the kernel I'm using.Hmmmm.

I posted about the Samsung App store and the free asphalt 6 version being offered about a month ago. Specifically how we can't download asphalt 6, so if you've figured out how to DL that specific title please share the details.

what stock apk do you mean? if you mean the Samsung app store app then the one I posted is stock pulled from original galaxy s 2.

So far I've been able to download 2 out of three apps. The only I had a problem with was Asphalt 6. Thanks for posting.

downloaded to pc but it won't download to the S2
its always download unsuccessful. I even "logged in" first with the browser thinking thats why it did not work.
sending the link download fails. using the qrcode download fails. is it something silly stupid I am doing wrong? (jacking usb now to install)

Thanks Jase, I installed the APK and it works perfectly. Looks like a few good games, others seem like trials. One BIG issue I have with the app, is that it does not seem to show permissions the apps want as you instal them, so you never know. NOT a plus.

When the app is about to be installed, there are permissions being shown. Unfortunately... The permissions down seem to be EVERY SINGLE THING THAT COULD BE ASKED FOR. I don't understand why a ns trial game has to read my text messages, but whatever.
Is there any chance we can get a list if full games on this list? I'm tired of downloading something just for it to be a 3 minute trial.
Trying out this E4GT...

All the cool, fun games seem to be demos...

reply.. having issue also
I'm also having trouble just getting the apk file to download. Everytime I try it just says download unsuccessful. Even tried the QR code and that was also unsuccessful.
I don't have internet at my house right now so i'm not able to download the file to my PC. My phone is rooted and I do have tethering but its really not useful for me right now cuz where I live i'm lucky if I ever get 2 bars on my signal. So without a good signal its hard to tether..
So its there another way for me to be able to download this apk??
Thanks

All downloads went through, but this app kills my battery...i was wondering what kills my battery so quick all of a sudden and i believe this app was involved. So i removed it, and battery is well

I guess it doesn't work on third party roms?

At least with me it was not compatible by default. I had to use CF3D.
Update: Also I can not confirm If CF3D really works since the game content download gets stuck before it even starts.

I finally got to download the resources. Don't ask how because I did nothing, just tried several times (lets say one a day for one week or so).
The thing is it is only working when I have internet connection, which I don't because I am currently abroad...
It's useless for me this game, at least until I get home.

FWIW: Says it's not compatible with my rooted Nook Color using CWM, at 100, 160, or 200 pixel density.

It's working fine on the s2.

Works now.

I got the game to start up using cf3d and the powervr plug in as well a the powervr data directory.
Now I get memory heap errors when I try to build a power plant.
Had anyone been able to play the game?
What data directory and for cf3d plug in did you use?

Google really screwed with games
Why don't all games use open GL and why do we have to get a specific version for each terminal, that sucks!
Google shouldn't allow things such as Tegra only games, it's a really bad thing for Android.

How is it a bad thing for Android for game developers to be able to push the most (graphically and performance) for each specific model?
Sent from my GT-I9100

Games should be like those on PC: only one version and you apply the different settings according to your hardware.
On Android it's crazy, it's as if on PC, devellopers would have to release a different version of their games for each different type of graphic card or processor or memory and wouldn't use Direct X, that would be really stupid!
I really despise Tegra only games, if the phone isn't powerfull enough to run the game at full specs, just let the user lower the settings so we can still enjoy the game (much better than no game at all).

[Q] So... Anything new on Smart Updates?

Still gotta DL the WHOLE app (eg. a 1GB game update) instead of just the new/replaced files that Google announced will be launched with the JB release.
Smart Update: http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/17/3248874/google-play-store-smart-updates-enabled
Anyone know what going on with that?

I don't know the technical details of the technology, but from what I read about it I assume it only works for changes in the APK. Games often contain a lot of graphic data, which probably renders this technique kinda useless
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty sure they are already enabled but they still show as if you are downloading the entire file. So there is no way to know when they are put to use and how big the apk diff files are.

Busybox free uses it..and facebook 1.9.9 update too...
With the last updates it was finished within seconds..the download....

Interesting. So how does Google select which apps start using it? Or is it some kinda automated update adding apps to its list for Smart Update support?

Noo the devs of the apps must build it in aka support it

I'm pretty sure that isn't the case. Google automatically enables smart app updates for all (I presume) apps. This was said at the I/O conference that developers didn't need to do anything and personally I haven't seen any new API calls nor manifest lines that I need to add.

FWIW, I updated Dead Trigger the other day and it only downloaded around 500k of updated data... so, yea, it does work for games as well.
Again, it depends on the APK and the changes involved.
Something I noticed the other day: the progress bar on the Play Store was slow, and would cut off somewhere in the middle just before updating. If you want to see the real update progress, look in the notification shade.

I think its an switch that the dev must activate to use it

Yes..u r ri8...notification bar shows correct % of update where as progress bar shows size of kbs downloaded...

Yes, I have noticed this also recently. So I guess it was a slow rollout.

I have encountered several updates that use this. I remember Google saying that it is something that will happen automatically and not something that will require any changes on the part of the developers

Thanks for this looks nice! I'll test it in the afternoon.

Now available on the PlayStore :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm

Is it version 4.3.1? I don't an update available in the Play Market

Not sure that I like it. Only 4.3.1 is in the Play Store, not the 4.5 update yet.
I liked the 4.3.1 because it shows me my categories on the left side. This just looks like the phone version and only has the sender/message preview. Lots of white space in landscape mode.

Fab thanks ! Installed from the dev site ,works well ,not sure on the Microsoftesq letters at the start of each person

With the advent of the new navigation drawer that can be swiped into view from any screen, a specific tablet version need not exist. This is incredibly clever design by Google. Not to mention the innovative "Swipe to refresh" animation.

Just an FYI everyone, if you are running a HALO enabled rom, you must disable HALO before trying to install this apk. HALO prevents the installation of 3rd party (apps not on the play store). You can re-enable it afterward.

Ok - I don't like it, but I can see your point.
However - have you found a way to not waste all the space recovered by not showing labels and actually display messages? On a Stock N7, I went from >14 messages visible, plus my quick labels selection to a display of <10 messages on the screen, and each message has less of a preview.
If the design is to maximize utility, I would expect to be able to do more, not see less and require more interactions to get anything done.

New Google Maps 7.0 with new UI

See attachment below. THIS apk will only work if you've upgraded your One to 4.2.2. Users on 4.1 will have to wait until its rolled out to their account
