[Q] Help installing .apk + Data - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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.

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.

accessing the internal memory on pc

hi,
i recently got the xperia play for christmas and i want to play my psone games on it. so i got the PSXperia tool but requires to get a .apk and .zpak files, which are in the internal memory, which i cannot access through windows explorer. is there a tool that allows me to access this? its an unrooted phone, on 2.3.4
thank you
AFAIK none of the instructions @ https://github.com/yifanlu/PSXperia/wiki require you to access the internal memory.
Urrr...not on the website...on the actual application though
"You need to extract some files from the Crash bandicoot apk that came with your Xperia Play
The APK is either com.sony.playstationblahblahblah.apk or com.sony.playstation.blahblahblah.apk in the system/app folder of your android phone's INTERNAL MEMORY"
So I can get the ZPAK from the SD card, however I cannot get the APK. Help?
You should be able to use adb pull to get it
(Do a temp root with zergRush if you have to).
Sorry Im a noob could you explain what those are and how you do it?

no.
this is what wrong with the Internet. people expect to be told everything.
many threads in Xda on how to do it or perhaps Google how to use adb to pull files
rant over.. this wasn't personal

Download Astro File Manager from the Android Market. Launch the app and find the directory where the APK file is located, which is in "/system/app".
Press down on the APK file and tap on "copy". Then go back to your SD card and paste it there.
^^ This was the fastest way I was able to get that APK file.

Uninstall apps on ICS SGN...

Hi all,
I have downloaded fifa 12 and after realising that it don't work, I immediately proceed to uninstalling it.
The problem is fifa 12 downloaded an additional resource of appx 1.2gb. And removing the app doesnt remove this 1.2gb.
How do I remove an app entirely... else I think I wasted a lot of storage spaces.

Download a file manager
Form my G-Nex *****
how did you uninstall it? i'm assuming if you just uninstall via the Play Store or Settings, then reboot, the files would disappear.
If the game put its files where it should they are deleted automatically when you uninstall.
I uninstall through settings ... however my used storage still stands at 3.2gb

Get a file manager go into sdcard/Android/data and delete it there
A Filemanager is one way but often there is a much easier way with ICS:
Identify the orphaned files/folder via Settings > Storage. Most of the time you can just delete the unwanted files right from this menu or at least get the location of the files to delete them with a file explorer.
damn was going to get fifa aswell.
FIFA not working????????

This is a great non-bloated file manager. Free and open source.

Download files from Dropbox

I have installed Dropbox app on my phone. Every time I want to read the file, I notice it downloads on my phone and then opened it with the office app. It is too slow in certain occasion. With no internet connection area, it does not work at all. How can I download the files in my phone so I can open them immediately from the phone rather than downloading files on demand. Thanks!
Open a file then click to export it to your sd card. You can also click the down arrow beside the file name and click share. Share to sd card is an option.

Thanks for your advice.
I think this is what you need: https://www.dropbox.com/help/87/en
Had the same problem, found a useful little free app called dropsync on the play store which did the trick.
It keys tot sync files/folders from Dropbox to your device so you don't have to download the files every time, plus it keeps the directories synced (or not, if you should so choose)
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Usually. .if you download a file from Dropbox once. It is already on your phone in internal sd/ Android/data/.com.dropbox.xxx/ cache/scratch/files/
You can check it out. .
Once downloaded. .it doesn't download again. .checks cache and sees if it is there. .and opens from cache
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)
I personally use Solid Explorer (similar to windows explorer) to get into my Dropbox and just copy the file to a folder I want. Then I just open it with an app of my choice.

[GUIDE] how to send one phones game data into another

Most games ask you to download additional data like talking tom2,and also obb data like dead trigger,asphalt8 etc but obb data exceeds 100mb not all the people have wifi connection some migth have only mobile like me data if you have a game that you want in another mobile but dont know how to get that mobile game data into yours then go on reading,so this is how it goes
REQUIRMENTS
two mobiles,one with the game and data and one which you want the game in
I have galaxy tab 2 with dead trigger1 and nokia x(in which i want dead trigger)
for sending obb
1.take galaxy tab and send dead trigger apk into the x
2.install the apk its just 9mb and open it says connect to the internet
3.close the game open any file explorer I use es file explorer in the galaxy tab
4.go to android then obb you see a folder for dead trigger
5.then in nokia x make the folder obb only if you dont have and also the dead trigger folder just as same in tab
6.then in the tab if you open the dead trigger folder you can see only one file with the same folder name send it to the nokia x its some 180mb
7.then cut and paste the file to the daed trigger folder you made
8.then close the explorer and open the game just connect to internet once
9.it just recognizes the files and opens
10.your work is done enjoy the cool game
FOR DATA
its easy for obb but when it comes to data it becomes difficult take talking tom ig you go to android then data go to talking tom 2 folder u can see a thousand files if you follow the first method for this ,making folder sub folder etc etc it would take days so lets do it simpler
1.send the talking tom 2 apk to nokia x from tab
2.install its just 15mb
3.every knows that you cant send a whole folder through bluetooth or any way
4.this is where es file explorer comes into action make a zip of the talking tom 2 folder
5.send it to the x then open talking tom 2 app your work is still not done it shows connect to internet
6.close app and open es file explorer go to the zip of talking tom 2 u sent from tab
7.extract the zip then open it it has a folder with the same name of the zip in it
8.cut and paste it in android/data
9.then open the app from app drawer
10.have the fun
