If I search demolition inc or dark meadow directly on my phone on the play store, the game will not show up. If I click on the game on the web store, it'll open up the game and say "this app is not compatible with your device."
The games are both tegra 3 games, yet I can't use them on my tegra 3 device. What in the hell?

Not sure if related but some of the apps in the store were down for a while and you couldn't find them and couldn't install them even though they were compatible, but it seems the Admins at Google Play fixed the problem now.
some of these apps are not sold in all countries. I keep getting that on so many, it's a pain in the arse. market enabler should help there though, i suppose..
Guys u Wanna be the first with this powerfull device.
We`ll just have to wait for them to catch up to us...xD
hm...so the apps are free...and you can't find them on the legal way...
well...think there for a second...get the apk somehow...installing locally works fine...well...was that really that hard of a thought?
Demolition Inc is still not supported for one x. Read the description on Google play.

Since the SIXAXIS doesn't work with HTC phones due to lack of some BT protocols and Tegra Zone supported gamepads need USB Host I'm searching for other solution. I want to play with gamepad in games such as GTA 3 and Riptide. So I find Bluetooth gamepad. My question is : Anyone know whether it will work with One X out not. Maybe someone test it and want to share experiences.

As far as I remember HTC sorted out the Bluetooth stack with the HOX so that sixaxis will work. I'm even sure it's been confirmed in these forums.

Actually the sixaxis works perfectly. You need a PC to set it up. There are plenty of guides on the web. I tested it with Shadowgun. Works great.

Sixaxis doesn't work with desire Z with rooted stock. Problem is on gingerbread HTC sesne rom. On DZ only CM and MIUI work with sixaxis. Mayby ICS with sense is working with sixaxis. I'll try.
edit: sixaxis working with ONE X

Is there a way to use the app without root?
Wiimotes work stock with an app like Wiimote Controller, Phonejoy's also work stock without Root.

+1, I'm looking for it too
Edit: Googling gave me this:
'SixaxisPairTool' (available on the website) and a mini-USB cable. Android 3.1+ users can also pair directly on their devices via USB.
This should do the trick:

I'm wondering if we should install Angry Birds Space HD on our H1Xs or the "normal" version? They say, in the app's description, that the HD version is for tablets, but what exactly is the difference between tablets and our devices besides form factor?
We have a very big resolution, so, should we install the HD version or should we go for the "normal" version for some other reason that I'm not aware?
How do you install the HD version again ?
This app is incompatible with all of your devices.
am not able to
Install the normal one. If you are browsing Google Play on the computer, all games and apps show, but if you are viewing it on the phone, it will only show compatible apps and games.
I only see the normal version.
Installing the HD on a phone would probably just use up battery power for a small increase in graphics you would hardly notice.

I just got myself this Windows Surface RT Tablet (finally) after having been through many cheaper tablets in the past, because I had been unable to afford the Surface. So, now that I have it, and have already done all I can with it (which isn't much!), I have found that I am unable to even PLAY MOST OF MY VIDEOS (most of them are mkv, avi, mp4) which is one reason I got a tablet to begin with! I have not been able to find ANY video player apps that are even worth TRYING in the MS App Store, and so far any searches I have done online for "How to install programs on surface RT", or even "How to hack my surface RT tablet" have not come up with any answers! I did find one article on how to "Jailbreak" the tablet, but even then, it will only actually RUN a tiny number of programs.
I have become so fed up and am out of patience for this thing!
I can't watch most of my movies, I can't figure out how to play the Win8 SNES Emulator (since I can't install the game ROMs), I can't install Firefox (my ONLY browser!), I hate how the Home Screen only allows you to pick from the pre-installed backgrounds, and I can't load my own wallpaper like I can on my laptop, and I really hate the Home Screen interface with all the annoying little tiles! Can anyone offer advice, or point me to where I can get some of this fixed??
THANKS! :fingers-crossed:

The RT runs RT windows 8, which doesn't run x86 apps aka .exe files. You can only install apps from the store without jail break. Also there's no Firefox for rt, I think you were confused on what rt could do compared to full windows.
All wallpapers can be changed via settings or control panel using the classic desktop. For video files the rt doesn't support every format, it'll work with the sane format every windows machine does. MP4 will work, but I'm guessing you have mkv.

Errm you should be able to. The RT has USB host. Should plug it in and it should just appear as a device as normal, tested with an Xperia M and Surface RT (not my tablet though). It only worked with my phone set to mass storage or MTP modes in the USB menu, didnt work for the picture/photo/camera mode and doesnt work for ADB.
Failing that, both have bluetooth file transfer....

You dont have to use their software unless motorola have really cocked the razr maxx up big time.
Yeah they cocked it up really good- it wont even connect to my ps3 via USB, things we sacrifice for amazing battery life. Oh and if i connect it to the surface as FTP- I can view the pictures that are on my phone storage only, no sd card or video support either.

Why can't you install the roms?? I just used windows explorer to copy them to the C: drive on my Surface RT. I put them in a folder within the downloads folder, but you can probably put them anywhere. Then you open the Snes8x and just add that folder as a Rom directory (press the "Load Rom" button). Someone on this site pointed out you can enable keyboard controls by swiping in from the right, and click settings->Input Settings.

Good news is, VLC is coming to Metro. They will submit their app to the store in the next following days.
Bad news is, right now this support x86 only. You have to wait for ARM support.
I feel for you. My school has given us all windows surface RTs and they're kind of annoying. I've found a few workarounds for a lot of my problems though. If you're having trouble playing .mp4s then that's just weird. Unless they're encoded really strangely, rt's video player should play those. However if that's no help it's worth trying out PressPlay, a free video player with very small ads that do not interfere at all and can be removed for a buck or two that let's you
1. Play external subtitles, although I've found it impossibly buggy but I haven't done extensive tests so it could be useful
2. Play .mkvs although that's experimental and also doesn't work very well
3. More features in general such as pausing without bringing up UI, changing playback rate, stuff like that.
Now if you have mkvs I would recommend using this program on a jailbroken windows rt:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368706
It's a program called ffmpeg and it's ported from normal windows. Make sure to download ffmpeg2.1_ARM.zip not ffmpeg0.6_arm.zip
with this program you can copy the video and audio from your mkv to an mp4 so it can play on your rt if you extract fmmpeg to a folder and then run this in command prompt(include the quotation marks and make sure to use backslashes(\) not forward slashes(/)):
cd "The bin folder in wherever you extracted ffmpeg to for example C:\ffmpeg\bin"
ffmpeg -i "Your mkv for example C:\myvid.mkv" -c copy -map 0:v -c copy -map 0:a "Your output mp4 for example C:\myvid.mp4"
That will also go super fast because there's no compression involved, it's just copying all video tracks and audio tracks from and mkv to an mp4.
In fact if you continue to use this command a lot you speed up the process heaps by making a batch file including these 2 lines of code:
cd "Again, your location of the bin folder in the folder you extract ffmpeg to, for example C:\ffmpeg\bin"
ffmpeg -i %1 -c copy -map 0:v -c copy -map 0:a "%~n1.mp4"
and then put that batch file into your SendTo folder(C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo).
If you do that then all you have to do is right click on one of your mkvs and click SendTo whatever you named your batch file and it'll make an mp4 with the same name in the same directory.
As far as snes games go snes8x has now been taken off the store but you can get a port of the desktop app of snes9x from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339228
if you have a jailbroken device. Although it is an emulator and it doesn't neccessarily run great so if you have the original surface RT as I do I would stick with 2D games. But test them and figure it out.
In fact if you have a jailbroken device there's a thread here all about apps ported to the RT or native for the RT right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092348
If you have any trouble with any of that I'm happy to help.
Will all pc games work if I put this app?
old pc games can be played by using something like an emulator
