As we all know this phone has a issue with some games. I thought it would be useful to list the games that did and did not work for you. I'll start.
Working games:
Game developer story: Sound cuts out from time to time but have not had a crash with any of their games.
Myth Defense: Works with sound off. No need to change the graphics.
Muffin Knight: Works most of the time but I read reports of it crashing.
Non working games:
Dungeon Defenders: Large mobs crash it. And something about the mob coming from the left if your facing the crystals. He has his own door. Whenever I attack him the game crashes. Coding glitch maybe?
G5 stand O food 3: Crashes randomly. I doubt any G5 games will work for us.
Other notes:
I've been e-mailing developers asking them to give us a option to turn off sound instead of turning the sound down.
Tetris crashes randomly

Working Games:
Market -
AdventRush - Had one non-reproducible issue. Picking the second character, after beating the first boss, the game closed without warning. Have had no issues otherwise, however.
Quell - Works fine
Doodle Jump - Works fine
Battleheart - No issues so far, haven't played much yet however.
Words Free - Works fine so far.
Godville - Works fine
Gameloft -
Eternal Legacy
Not Working -
Market -
Spectral Souls - Looks like this crashes on the Epic 4g Touch. Pity, really, I would love to have this working on our phones.
Gameloft -
Dungeon Hunter 2 - Worked fine for around 30 minutes, then closed without warning. After re-opening the game, game closes while trying to load a save or start a new character.

The Sims 3 works perfectly.
"Early Bird" (a more-addictive spin on that "other game") does also.
And my "all-time-favorite-Android game": Diversion, works perfectly, and looks amazing on our screen.
(Now, if I can just figure out how to get 9mm to show up in 'our' market, I'll be a happy camper....
Anyone else get that game maybe sideloaded from another device?)

I just got an S2 yesterday and have tried N64oid with Wave Race and there are some slowdowns with sound and frame rate along with a lot of graphical glitches.
I saw an Infuse run this just fine. Any suggestions?
I think this is nothing to do with the phone, but more to do with the emulator.
The author took it off the market to fix some problems with it. Hopefully it will come back more smoother, faster and compatible.
thats not true, the developer was forcefully removed, however he along with many other developers who have been forcefully removed have moved over to "Slide ME" app market, a 3rd party market, which is becoming a very awesome place. he has made n64oid, along with all of his other removed emulators (nes, snes, atari, sega, gameboy, gameboy advance) and made them all free, so be sure to check it out
are you on the most recent n64oid? he has updated it on Slide ME market, download the most recent version
He's heavily working on an improved version that he first said should have been done by the end of may, so any day now. It's gonna make games compatibility a lot better.
I just want to play the Zelda games. Anyone else get constant chop-ups and crashes on them?
Has anyone managed to hook up any controllers yet? Mario Kart is a real pain to play using on screen controls.

For Mario Kart use Sensor as Analog stick, and have Controls layout to "Top + Bottom"
this allows you to steer by moving the phone and gives you the Z (fire button) on the left, and A+B (accel, break) on the right.

How much have you played? I'm still inside the Deku tree and it's crashed maybe 3-4 times total It only seems to happen upon loading new areas, and it's completely random at that. Not an issue if you save very often. Majora's Mask is damn near unplayable though.
But damn, does the phone get hot! Far worse than FPse for example.
What's the changelog for the updated n64oid from slideme since the last update from the emulator nazi (android market) I haven't noticed any improvements I paid 6 dollars for the app
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I don't think n64oid was ever updated when it was put up on slideme though? I'm sure it was v1.1.4 I got off the internet while yongzh had the app pulled from the market while his other emulators were still up.

Yeah we are still waiting for the big update, the mov to slideme was in preparation for the release of the next version apparently
I hope it's coming soon. If the game compatibility becomes that much better I'd definitely buy it if he puts a price on it.
I know there's been lots of talk about how he allegedly uses open source code for his emulators and then charges for it without permission, but as this is the only n64 emulator available I don't care at all.
Personally I still am fine with my six dollars going to yongzh and am sad that his expertise in emualtors is now unwelcomed by google on its market. And my 4 dollars for his gba emulator too I hope he distributes his new n64oid release via email first to all that paid for it and then publish to slideme.

Well I don't think El Goog care about his expertise when they get a request to remove apps from the market. n64oid was removed due to a lot of the code being taken from mupen64 and them filing a request. That PSX emulator was taken down because it was breaching trademark.
Don't want to sound like a ****, but good riddance to be honest. If you are gonna use other peoples code, at least credit them.
Checkout N64oid v2.0.1 is released.
*Changes*:
v2.0.1
- Fixed depth issue on Galaxy S2
- Changed app icon
Here:- http://slideme.org/application/n64oid
N64oid appears according to commenters to be a crapshoot.It might work like a charm or might crash everytime.Yongzh hasn't shown a lot of haste to update his software in the marketplace so until he fixes most of the glitches and crashes I'd keep my 4$ in my pocket.Already paid once for half baked buggy software, 4$ is a good eats.
His pages on Slideeme now appear to give full credit(and maybe %) to the original coders.Step up I say.
Downloading it now. Hope it works with Chainfire 3D.. Looks like an AWESOME game!

Had to use chainfired3d with the tegra plugin in order to get the textures to work correctly. Runs very smoothly and doesn't seem to heat up the phone too badly.
Cant get it working and ive updated chainfire 3d (paid version) and used nvidia plug ins. cant get riptide working wither which others are. Are there more up to date plug ins? only seem to find same ones all the time

I had this exact same issue. Turns out I had to uninstall chainfire3d. Then reinstall - non free - then pro. The reinstall the plugins. For riptide you will also need the shaders (google for them). Then you need to set per app settings for riptide and GOF2. use the tegra plugin.
Download?
How do you download this game? I cant find it in marked on the phone and web version of marked says it isnt compatible with my device so i cant download it!

You need to use chainfire 3D and press "fix market". All Tegra games appear. See first post I will put a good youtube tutorial which explains everything.

Thanks for the help-got riptide working now but still not galaxy on fire. i will return to it when ive got time
Just downloaded from Android Market (still coming soon on Tegra Zone) and installed.
All looks good and seems to be working well with the Nvidia plugin
Is it just me or is the startup time damn slow. Runs fine once its going but sloooow to start.
Works fine here with Chainfire 3D
also no problems, works fine with chainfire 3D+nvidia plugin.
But 15$ is too much for me, stay with the free version.

The MMORPG Order & Chaos has just been released on the Android Market. Most gameloft games are pretty good, so I am thinking ahout buying it!
I thought maybe this would be a thread for people to talk about it and maybe add each other. Make a Galaxy S II XDA clan or something This game is fun for playing with friends, offcourse.
So, people that bought it: is it worth it?
Price: 5.49 euro.
Im planing on buy the game to
is the game worth it ?
thx
Hello,
I've bought Order & Chaos yesterday but I have already posted on the gameloft technical forum because the game doesn't run smoothly on the SGS2!
There are several issues:.
1. The game often freezes for 1 sec, this happens every 30 sec/1min. The game doesn't really run smoothly.
2. Opening the minimap takes 2 sec and browsing the minimap is really slow
3. In the options, asking for the ping indicator or the camera being vertically or horizontally fixed doesn't work
The gameloft custumer care has already told me that the dev team is working on these issues and apparently I'm not the only SGS2 owner who has these issues.
I hope they are going to resolve this pretty quickly (especially the freeze/lag) because the game in itself is really fun and addictive

Do they think people are walking around with WiFi routers in their pockets?
Fail!
This game is Huge, Massive, GODLIKE. Such an incredibly detailed game and plays beautifully. Insanely addicted. Seriously, this is World of Warcradt IN YOUR POCKET!
I just downloaded this game, it is very very nice, and with Anti Aliasing 4x (thanks Chainfire3d) The graphics take a whole new dimension.
The problem is this random stutter/freeze mentioned by everyone every zone loading.
Will wait for a fix, game looks great.
Hows this compared to pocket legends?
Its also a WoW counterpart.
i was thinking about buy it.. but with the freeze problem.. oh ****
This happens due to GPU not running at 267Mhz I believe but at a lower clock rate. This happens on Asphalt 6 and GangsterMiami etc.

It can only remove the cache on YOUR PHONE; all game data (characters/maps/weapons in your inventory) is stored on the GameLoft server.

Some guys said that flashing a kernel that supports Tegrak, and installing this app might fix the freezes.
I'm on Oxygen, not really having the time to test this, but anyone on stock might give this a try and post feedback.
- install Tegrak
- OC the GPU to 257 Mhz, or find a good clock
- you might as well downclock the CPU a bit to prevent heating, 800 will be enough to run this.

Hello there, I was wondering if anybody has had any issues with first person games on the new Cyanogenmod Version 10.1-20130203-unofficial-d710? The android version is 4.2.1.
So my games load up fine from the market, however when I open them and start playing them I seem to loose control with my character. For instance on both games, COD black ops zombies, I have limited control over my character, it freezes/lags during gameplay... I can't fully play the game, this is the same for the amazing spiderman game. If anybody has an idea about this I'd like to hear it. Thanks

Try updating to 2/15 or 2/18 if you don't mind doing a full wipe. These two builds are very stable and should have no issues with games
OK well thanks for your prompt reply. The fed 18 version has a lot of problems; for instance it does not allow you to do screen rotation. Still the same issues with games. Feb 15 runs very smoothly, is very fast. however it did not solve my game problems as well. What happens is the screen moves all over the place. I know that I lose control of the buttons. My hunch is this this is a interface issue between the CyanogenMod launcher and the games themselves. If you are experiencing any issues with 3d games such as call of duty and GTA 3 I like to know..

Hmm, ok that's good to hear. Yes I was referring Call of Duty Black ops Zombies. I want to check and see what you did to install the rom. Did you use the El29 Rom to install it use odin one click? Does your rom when it boost up say GT I9100... Ok so I used the video from qbking to install the rom, the only thing that he did differently than me was that he used mobile odin. So your not having any control issues huh... Any ways, I'd appreciate to know how you downloaded the file. So far everything runs smoothy except for gameplay where I loose control of my character, experience freezing/lags/shuttering so I'm really trying to this annoying problem out of my way.
Thanks for you help

When i first boot up, it just says galaxy s II. Also..i did one click to el29 through odin. I downloaded an earlier build on my computer. Then i just downloaded each new build on my phone. Hope this helps and i hope you get this problem worked out soon. Let me know if you need any more help
