[APP] Gameloft Game Data on External_sd

Hi all, I'm really sorry if this has already been posted anywhere but I could not find it so I thought I'd share it hoping it was useful for someone. This is a windows application that will take your Gameloft HD .apk files and patch them so that the downloaded game data will be stored and read from your external SD on your Galaxy S. It has saved me a lot of grief chopping and changing SD data for games depending on what I wanted to play as I bought about a dozen Gameloft HD games but could only fit the data for a select few on my internal SD.
Tested working on my SGS so far: -
Real Football 2011
Asphalt 6
Assassins Creed
Avatar
Dungeon Hunter
Dungeon Hunter 2
Eternal Legacy
Fast 5
Gangstar Miami Vindication
Hero Of Sparta
Lets Golf
Lets Golf 2
Modern Combat 2
Nova
Nova 2
Rainbow 6 Shadow Vanguard
Sacred Odyssey
Sandstorm
Shadow Guardian
Spiderman Total Mayhem
Splinter Cell Conviction
Star Front Collision
The Settlers HD
It changes the path within the game from /sdcard/gameloft/games/ to /sdcard/external_sd/Gl/ so all you need to do is either download the game data again or move it into the Gl folder on your external SD card.
I did not write this, a fella named Duero over on 4pda.ru made it but the site is all in Russian so I thought it would be useful here. If it has already been posted or anyone has any objections to me posting it then please let me know rather than flame me.

asphalt 5 HD 3.1.9 and gt racing motor academy 3.1.1 works great too on my SGS.

Help?
Total noob here...could you please give me some instructions?

This is not working dude

Works fine for me. Simply download the attached file then:
1. Run the file
2. Select the .apk file of the Gameloft game you wish to patch
3. Wait a while as it decompiles the .apk, edits the files and then recompiles it
4. Save the new .apk file somewhere
5. Transfer the .apk file to your phone and install
Simple

ThanX Man .. ThanX

Thanks a lot.It works, as explained.

It needs to be put in a folder on your external_sd called GL, so your folder structure will look like - external_sd\Gl\*Game Name*
Works a treat on my phone and many others

For those like me that aren't on Windows, there is also another method (by script) : [HOWTO] to Gamers: dirty workaround to have Gameloft files on external_sd, by lunasea
lunasea said:
Looked around, and the only workaround I've found was a crack that opens the game apk and changes the download destination directory. Well, I wasn't very comfortable in using this, and it only worked on some games.
So I configured the following "dirty" workaround, I know it's not perfect, but it resolved my problem so I decided to share here.
Basically I've moved gameloft directory from sdcard to external_sd and created a bind mount point called gameloft on sdcard pointing to external_sd. This has the problem that you can only mount that bind point before using the gameloft games, because if you keep it mounted and use storage usb you'll have problems mounting sdcard.
So I've created two scripts - one to mount it, another to unmount it -, and using script manager created a shortcut (actually is a script manager widget) to both scripts on my screen. Whenever I want to use/install gameloft games I mount it, and in the end dismount the bind.
Additional steps for gamming, but restored my sdcard space and now I can use my 16G external sd for that files. Note that if your external card is slow, the game load will be slower.

That should work fine, I'm really not sure why its not working for you. Are you trying to replace the apk files once they're patched or saving them in a different directory? All I did was save the apk files I wanted to patch in one directory, load the patcher and patch 1 file then save the new file in a different directory then just repeat the process. I'm not sure if you need to have java installed on your pc and its directory set up in the system paths option but it all worked for me

@bigdyl69 & all others;

..yey! ..tnx a lot!
..works with my SGS i9003.
..works on: sandstorm, brothers in arms 2, gangstar: west coast hustle, shrek kart ..and will be adding more!!!!!
tips:
..download link above to your pc..works with my win 7.
..be patient while the auto.patch is generating the patched apk until it gives u the option to save it..give it maybe 30-60sec.
..folder should be in this format: "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Gl"
..make sure folder is allredy created before installing the game(apk patched)
..you could use either already downloaded game data or redownload again once you open the game.
..tnx a lot and very nice work with the link and guide and also the creator,, DUERO! haha! good job!!!!

@hailmary

One of two reasons
1. Have you put the data at the right place? should be /sdcard/gameloft
that refers to the SGS2's internal memory, not the actual removable sdcard
2. The data is corrupt or needs an update

you need to put the data to /sdcard/gameloft/games/Gloft????. The question marks is the shortform of the game for example Asphalt 6 is "GloftA6HP" and UNO is "GloftUNOG". Try your luck.

Thank's for reply all......
to viva.fidel: i put to this directory: /sdcard/gameloft/games....(because i see all the game folder is there.... in SGS2's internal memory.
to ghkoo:maybe bcoz of that....try it....
any suggestion where can find the HD games?

Paradise Island Trainer

For those who play this game. Check it out!!
This does work for the newest version. 1.2 (62)
Paradise Island Trainer
Android APK - Mirror
Desktop Java App - Mirror
He has the apk and the desktop app.
Android APK-
All you have to do is edit the permissions of the profile0.sav file and the apk will work. Root Explore is what I use.
Location on Android:
data/data/com.seventeenbullets.android.island/files/profile0.sav
Desktop Java App-
Place the jar file and the sav file in the same folder.
Use command-line as follows: java -jar PITrainer.jar profile0.sav
More info on the link above.
Notes: I have done this and it works. I have done a lot to mess with this game and have been even suspended from the Sociality stuff for the time change cheat. I did get it back after time caught up. This trainer hasn't given me any trouble but does take away from the game a little if you've worked your butt off on it.

Hi I already download the files but I can not find the folder where the file profile0.sav and i install several programs to explore the phone and find the folder in any, or the file, I look in the phone and connect it to the computer and either,
someone who can help me?

could it be that the app is broken? my phone is rooted, all permissions for user, admin and others are setted but when i start the pitrainer my phone just vibrates a few times and then broke up the app? :\
anybody knows how i could make the trainer running?

Location of profile0.sav-
data/data/com.seventeenbullets.android.island/files/profile0.sav
edit the permissions of the profile0.sav file.
Nothing else to do. If the permissions are not set or your game file is bad, it will not open.
Might try the desktop.

pitrainer
i changed the permissions for the profile file and it worked fine. but, now after using the trainer a couple times successfully, every time i open pitrainer it immediately encounters an error and says that it is unable to open. i tried reinstalling paradise island and using the trainer but, it still won't work. has anyone else had success using this. maybe the last update disabled the use of the trainer?

Hi I like to confirm that this works with v1.2.23. Cheers

Great.. I did it. It's works in my mobile.

NullPointerException
HTML:
Hi
I receive NullPointerException when I run .jar file using windows command prompt
After entering ActionEnergy and hit enter this exception occures. Please help what I need to do? Using root explorer I have changed the file permissions but when I copy file to storage so that I could copy on my computer, but as soon as I copy on storage (profile0.sav) the file permission reset. Then using windows security I have changed permission but still get the same exception. And .apk just open and closes with error.
device is rooted as I could change file permissions.

the .sav file is no more.
all i can find is a .obb file
does this trainer work with it? and if yes, please tell me how.
Thanks!

[Q] Help installing .apk + Data

I got my N7100 2 days ago so I am very new to this. I am trying to install a game called Heroes Call. I have downloaded the .apk and the data files but I am not sure how to install it. I have managed to put the apk on my phone and run it so that program is now installed but I am not too sure were to put the big data file.
I have been trawling the web to try and figure it out and have seen one person say put it in /android/obb. There is no such folder in the android directory just minisnote and Data.
I have created a folder called obb and just put the downloaded data file that ends in .obb in that folder. now when i run the game the startup screen (that little monkey) just stays on the screen and nothing else happens at all.
Can anyone shed some light on this. I know its a free app but i cant download it in this country of i go through the google play store
Cheers

erm... its free

Before you begin, delete anything associated with that app. The data and app.
Since this is a free game, I'm inclined to help.
Install the app first, but don't open it. Then transfer the data files. Once that's done, you can open the app.

Yeh but i don't get were i am copying the data to thats what i mean. I would pay for it if i could because it looks awesome. When i install the apk it creates a folder in android/data and in that folder is Cache and Files. do i put the obb file in either of those sub files or just in the data file? the closest i have go is running the app and it say downloading resources but then i get the error no resources available

Ok since it is free, I am offering u a solution. Use 7 zip to extract the .obb file and keep it in sdcard/android. Hope it works.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

Nope didnt work still just get error could not locate resources. Should have stuck with my iphone haha. Was looking forward to having a bash on that game haha

If it is an obb then copy it to android/obb. Make sure you copy the folder eg. Com.blah.blahblah not the obb itself.
Sent from my GT-N7100

maybe you downloaded a corrupted file. I just downloaded the game and its data. I am playing it right now =P

I was thinking that but it can't be. I have downloaded about 3 different versions. I am thinking now that the problem is that its not available in this country. Once you run the game does it have to connect to the play store even briefly? I can install the apk move the data files and then when i run the game the logo appears and it says looking for resources. Then after about 15 seconds it says cannot locate resources

In certain condition i think app+data backup may help
Get application + data backup of titanium from device where it is working and restore it to your device
you needs root.

How to export apk with apk+userdata
I want to backup my apps with user data. I am using Go Backup and restore but it backups both apk and user data file separately, I want it to be in a single apk file. So that others whom i send the apk don't have to use Go Backup and restore to restore my user app data.

i might be a bit late, but you have to create a folder in android called obb (small cases) and place the folder that should start with 'com.' in it. before you do this, install the apk but DONT OPEN IT.. Click done. so finally, when you have downloaded both apk and data( the folder), you can open your game which should be installed on the menu.
P.S i know im verry lat, soz.
