Real Racing 2 (Working on Galaxy Nexus)

Downloaded the apk and data (for the PowerVR) from outside the market, it says it's incompatible in the market, but that's not true. I installed it, started it up, worked flawlessly. I attempted to buy the full game (which is an in app purchase), I received a confirmation email from Google, and money was drawn out of my account, but the transaction failed for some reason.
I don't know why all these games are "incompatible" (Real Racing 2, Modern Combat 3) when they work fine on my Galaxy Nexus.
UPDATE: Downloaded the American apk (v000306) and the purchase went through, it was $6.99. There doesn't seem to by a discounted price although there seems to be a discount on other EA games.

Wehre did you download it?
can you upload apk and data on megaupload?? (it's a free app at the end)
thx
L.

probably illegal to post links. FYI.
And I don't know why people have gotten into the habit of restricting phones right off the bat. They should just block known incompatibilities. Just like Netflix before they made it "open". Once you change your build.prop and force a Market download, it plays fine. Gameloft and others are even worse. They do a check in-game to see if your phone matches.
We go 'round and around with this all the time.

Downloaded the American apk (v000306) and the purchase went through, it was $6.99. There doesn't seem to by a discounted price although there seems to be a discount on other EA games.

the data wont download keeps timing out..

I asked a friend to download the latest apk from Market. It throws an error when I install and run it on my GN though and it won't even try to download the sdcard data. Did anyone else get the latest version working, ie. getting it to start and then allowing you to buy it using in-app purchasing?
I really want this game.

I really want this too, would it not be possible to change the build prop to a handset that is supported, purchase and download and then change it back?
I would try however I have no idea how to change the build prop....

Most likely, yes. I don't want to mess around with it on my GN though as I have a Nexus One that is listed as compatible. I just don't have it here right now.
Not sure if it is blocked because of ICS or the GN either. You'd probably want to change build.pringerprint at least.

Doesnt work for me.. I might have an old version though

I got it working thanks to another user. The key was to start it in Airplane mode. The SD data is the same for both versions (row and na) so just rename the folder to match the package name of the version you have.
I also now had access to my Nexus One so I could download it there and then buy it. It ended up costing 7 SEK + tax (8,33 SEK in total) which translates to roughly $1 + tax so it's certainly still on sale.

When you say you got it working...how did you get the SD card data? For me it just never starts downloading. How would airplane mode help when you need to get the game data?
I see it is downloadable from several sites around the net but I am not clear which other phone would be the best match.
Help?

UPDATE: I found the PowerVR data files, put it in the appropriate SD card directory, installed and ran it, but the 3D graphics are all in grayscale! The foreground 2d Overlays and UI elements are color, but 3D is in B&W. Anyone else see this?

I meant that I downloaded the SD Data from sites unofficially hosting it.
Not sure what problem you are having. Incorrect or old SD data perhaps. The airplane mode is to get past the update check.
I hope they will make it officially supported soon so that I can redownload it properly from Market.

Well I can't think of what else to do. I purchased this game and it ran fine on my kindle fire and I would like it to run on my galaxy nexus but I can't seem to piece together an APK and SD card data file that works.
I'm open to more suggestions if anyone has them.

hey guys.
got this game working last night.
i used real racing v000314 (american) + it worked perfectly. powervr data obv (366mb, no matter where you get it from should be that size)
if you google that version you'll find the app + powervr data + instructions
(you dont need the titanium backup thing)
extract powervr data somewhere. copy the file into sd/android/data
install the apk
start playing !
you need to make sure its v000314 if you want the graphics to work flawlessly. oh & have gpu acc enabled.

I must have finally stumbled on the right files, too as I also got it working. Where are you finding a setting to turn on gpu acceleration for this game?

AirDroid: For the MTP haters and people who want a better way to access their data

Honestly, i couldn't be more impressed with this app. Not only does it use no data since it goes through your wifi network, it transfers insanely fast. I transferred a 200MB wmv file in under a minute. like most of you i have had some MTP issues where things have transferred very slowly, and this was much faster.
Additionally, where as MTP will sometimes load no thumbnails of your images making it very difficult to find which one your looking for, airdroid loads them all.
it also allows you to access your contacts, sms (and even send sms!), as well as full access to the entire internal memory. You can even see all of your installed applications as well as uninstall them (requires confirmation from the phone).
honestly, i'm incredibly impressed with airdroid, and considering it's free, even more so.
just figured since i've found this app so incredibly useful, i thought it would be best to spread it around here.
i'm not the developer or anything like that, i just found it and loved it. don't think i'll ever connect my phone to the computer again.

Thanks! Nice new tool,appreciate it

Are you running ICS? I only ask bc in the market description it says there are some problems with ICS. Any truth to this? With the ratings this app has gotten, I think I have to give it a go. Over 5000 of 6000 gave it 5 stars!

Been using it since I got the GNexus. Great app, haven't had any FC's at all. Only issue (not sure if it's universal) is that WiFi transfers do not work with the screen off for me, but beyond that, its great for quickly dropping in files to the phone. Great browser interface for the most part as well.

@nweaver: considering i'm posting this in the galaxy nexus forum, and i say i have a galaxy nexus, and the galaxy nexus can only run android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, then yes, i'm on ICS.
And yes they say they have problems with ICS, i haven't noticed any. And if you look at the reviews for the galaxy nexus then they're almost all 5 stars.
@Jebus: strange that transfers don't work with the screen off, they work just fine for me. transferred pictures and videos with the screen off. I noticed in the battery that while it's running it keeps the phone awake, for obvious reasons, it's possible that your rom or some app is interfering with it, and stopping it from having the phone awake even though the screen is off.
*edit* Oh yeah 1000 posts!

This looks great. Gonna download it and have a play. Wasn't too impressed with MTP so hopefully this is an adequate replacement. Accessing contacts and texting etc. is a nice extra perk too!

Just one bug so far...
The only bug I've found so far is that I fail to receive the new sms text notification on the web interface and that I have to manually refresh the conversation window - I'm using Chrome. Anyone else have this problem?
Other than that it's a great app - can't believe I didn't come across this sooner!

How is this AirDroid different from MyPhoneExplorer? Not beeing sarcastic just asking a legitimate question.

after looking around, airdroid looks a lot nicer, and runs in the browser instead of a separate app. aside from that they're very similar but myphoneexplorer has some more features for syncing and other things.
personally, airdroid is better for file management because of the simple windowed design, and full working thumbnails, and that it works right from your browser, so no extra application to install. aside from that, MPE is better in a few ways. i think it'll come down to your preference and what you need.
personally i'm using this for moving pictures and other files too and from the device since i can actually see thumbnails through this and not through MTP.

I was not aware that such things existed. My compliments to the chef!

I'm also a big fan of this app. A little slower than USB but much easier, especially in Linux. Two things I'd like to see though: Downloaded files, are in a generically named zip file, it would be nice for them to at least have an appropriate name. The other thing that would be nice is a Chrome and Firefox extension to automatically connect, so we don't have to type in a different address every time.

I was having major problems with MTP and downloaded this on my first night with my Gnex.
Amazing and saved me from much frustration. Awesome app!

Cant get airplay to work at all
just says waiting ... tried in IE and Chrome.

@wilbur-force: don't forget to activate it in the phone first. and it works perfectly in firefox.

It runs like a champ in chrome for me

Nook Color ICS Alpha for CM9 & AirDroid
My Dell Studio Win7 64 laptop has not been able to succeed in loading MTP or PTP drivers for my Nook Color ICS Alpha for CM9 from XDA. I was having to pull the SD card to transfer CM9 update zips to my NC. AirDroid saved the day (week).
Thank you!

Also loving this app.
The only thing that bugs me is (and maybe I am doing it wrong?) that when I upload for example a picture to my wallpaper folder on the phone Airdroid creates its own "wallpaper" folder for only the files I just uploaded instead of dropping the uploads into my already existing "wallpaper" folder that I initially selected as the upload destination.
So when I go into the gallery (stock) on my phone later on I have two folders named "wallpaper"
Anyone else running into this?
My "wallpaper" folder is a subfolder of my "pictures" folder on the root directory of the phone.

thanks ill give it a go

I use Websharing. It is a paid app, but let you use webdav protocol. (I can access phone storage as a network share).
Also, I can stop the service. Airdroid 1.0.6 removed this option. Waiting a fix to start using it to decide between webshare and airdroid.

i personally use it on my mac and it's very useful and save my a lot of time.

Can I put a custom ROM on this thing now? I'd really like to try PAC ROM. I definitely want 4.4.2 on it.

Nope! A no go with custom ROMs.
ATT Note 8.0 has locked boot loader and will brick if you install an unsigned ROM.

IMO the samsung ROM is good. Just a wee behind. One thing you have on your side is rooting.
Once rooted, you can use framework mods to enhance the features.
I tested Civato's ROM and Kernel. Found it good but lacks supporting 64GB SD cards with Exfat.
Had way too many issues with Fat32 to call it worth while. Speed was good, but I realized after letting myself get use to the OEM ROM, there was not much difference.
If anything I recommend getting Solid Explorer Pro and Titanium Backup Pro..., they are worth their price on Google.
I removed all the apps that I can get on Google Play most of them are Google apps, but there is a few that you can obtain.
Once I removed all the Google apps... kept play store, I installed what I wanted. Don't bother with Google Music Player, it will run even when you reboot.
I kept Samsung Keyboard, and found it better than SwiftKey and Swipe Keyboard. As it has quite a bit of features you would not expect in a stock keyboard.
Setup my voice and language to be Ivona UK Welsh English, it is the best sounding of the English language. Google is setup to be the voice recognition.
My Samsung voice will be Ivona, and any Google voice in Google Now will be Google.
I setup a number of things with the framework mods, so it will take some time booting to completely load HD Widgets, if you choose to go that route.
Once ATT releases 4.4.3 in April, I may hold off until Xposed Framework gets a major overhall for 4.4.x.
I recommend the non framework version of Ghost Hide Root, with plugin. There is a framework version, but it does not work well with Samsung ROM.
Startup manager also is a good framework app, but there is a paid app that goes even further... I kept the Xposed app because it was smaller.
Don't bother with Power / battery apps... they tend to hog memory, and don't do much better than having your tablet do power saving mode when browsing or reading.
I keep WIFI and Power save mode on all the time. Yet to find a real issue with speed. Able to watch streamed movies and Miracast without hicups.
Oh by the way... I dropped Greenify as well.. seems to take up a lot of memory. I just stop some apps that allow not to be started during boot. Be careful, as some are part of the OS. I stopped All email apps, this way when I am wanting email I just open them. Also you can manually sync if you chose to. Though it can be annoying if you open mail for the first part of the day and find 40 emails waiting. On vibrate or notification sound it can be a bit annoying.

Apps crashing and scroll lagging - anything specific in Note 3 that caused this?

I am coming from Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 and I have installed many apps with no issues. When I moved to Note 3, the same apps that were running just fine in the Nexus 5 and 7 start to have problem:
- Apps opened up, perform certain activity, crashed
- Apps opened up, vertical and horizontal scrolling is really laggy
These apps are like Pocket Informant (calendar app), Pocket Money (financial app), and Shiprack (package tracking), just to name a few.
Seeing all these apps functions well in the Nexus series, the problem seems to point to something within the Note 3.
I am rooted, stock, Knox is NOT tripped. I turned off all animation (0) in the Developer settings. I frozen some built-in apps (see below). Is there anything in Note 3 that I need to UNFROZE or anything I need to do to fix this problem? It's kinda hard to like the Note 3 when the same apps that works well in other phone just quit working...

You froze over 70 apps off the stock ROM? I have at most 20 and don't have the issues you are having. Guess you froze something that is needed.

Yeah, many of these are widgets, or things like Google+, which I froze in my old Nexus phone and tablet with no issue.
I scrutinized each app that I froze to figure out what are its function to make sure it won't cause problem. But it seems something is tied with TouchWiz or vice versa. For example, if i turned off animation, rearranging apps in folder sometimes crash TouchWiz, which is bizarre by itself.
Do you mind letting me know which apps did you freeze? Screenshot is appreciated.

It is in your reply above. I can see it fine. Using tapatalk 4

Looks like AdAway is blocking tapatalk image hosting... that's interesting...
Anyways, I can see it from my desktop. Looks like you use many of Samsung apps (Cloud, Backup, Group Play, etc.) since those were not frozen.
I am going to unfroze Samsung stuff to see if it make any different...

I don't use them, but they have not been a bother. I only freeze apps that cause problems, like Knox, or snoop around like the T-Mobile app.

How about battery life? Don't those stuff keeps running in the background?

If I do a hard reset, will:
- all frozen apps are unfrozen?
- all xposed module uninstalled and system settings like battery icon reverted back?
I am rooted, stock with no KNOX trip
I may have to do this to fix the issues I am having.

Just unfreeze everything. Just remember, Nexus means pure AOSP. Samsung means TouchWiz, which has a ton of things needed to run "correctly."

Just because something is running in background doesn't mean it is using the battery. This phone has lot of memory compared with most so for the most part it doesn't really matter.
Things that use the battery a lot are apps that use the Radio, actively use GPS and bluetooth being on. I only have BT on when I am using it in the truck. I always have GPS on because I don't use many apps that actively use it (Google maps uses it when you are navigating or have it active on the screen, but stops using it when you put it in the background).
Battery life is really in hands of the user and how they use their phone and what apps they choose to use.
For me, I get typical 15hrs of life in my phone (that would be down to the 20's% area) which is more than adequate for me.
I don't have time to play games and my phone is required for business so if the phone doesn't ring when someone calls, notify me when a page comes in or I cant make a call when I need to or access data that I need to access, it is useless to me.
As a result, I don't load different roms, play with kernals and do a lot of tweaking because that typically ends up with something not working.
I do have the ability to quick charge my phone at just about every where I go. So if I know I am going somewhere where I will be hanging out for a long time, I can do a quick charge to make sure I can do it. My truck, each computer station at work and home has 2amp charging available which charges as quick as the original charger that comes with the phone. I rarely need to do that however.
When I rooted for 4.4.2 I blew the Knox flag. No longer cared. At one time I thought I might need it for work but that is not going to be the case and I am confident that if I have a real hardware issue it will be covered with the coverage that I have on the phone.

Yeah, I have done that, but some issues still happen, namely the apps that I use. It could be just the apps, but I am trying to narrow down the problem.
I have used Samsung phone before (Galaxy Note 1 and S4 Active) and even HTC phone. Freezing built-in apps never caused this kind of issue (3rd party apps from Google Play crashed), as long as I don't freeze those I know is essential (for example, I won't freeze "Phone" or "Touchwiz"). If you see from my screenshot above, although I freeze a lot of apps, most are widgets and apps like Google Music, etc.
However, It seems that with Note 3, Samsung make Touchwiz more integrated.

[UPDATE]
Unfreezing ALL the apps I previously froze did not fix the problem. I rebooted, pull the battery, etc.
So I did a hard reset and...lo and behold, all the issues I had disappeared - the apps downloaded from Google Play no longer crashing or have scrolling lag.
There must be something in Touchwiz that "hooks" to these 3rd party apps, though I don't know what it is. It is quite interesting that Samsung will do this (first Knox, now this?), when I didn't have this problem with previous Samsung phone when I installed the SAME EXACT apps and Xposed module.
I will try to freeze the built-in app one-by-one and see if there is any issue there.

SwipePad - edge launcher!

Just a quick shout-out for this app. I was looking for something to replace the usefulness of the Note Edge application shortcuts, and came across SwipePad. It's pretty darn good for swiping in from an edge on the S6 Edge and launching apps from anywhere. I guess this would work on any phone, but feels so natural swiping over the curve to get this. Loving it!

PS I'm not affiliated to the app, in case you're thinking that..

Thanks bud

It's the very bottom option under "look and feel" when you select the notification. If you turn off the notification completely, swipe pad will fall out of memory and you'll have to manually start it sometimes. I just choose hide. Never leaves memory and i don't have the ugly icon

Thanks, nice!

i love this one. i put all my frequent contacts in it. marvelous

Hello XtraWater,
I have used this app since my SGS2. Sadly, I wiped my phone and as you said, Swipepad cannot be found in the play store anymore. I downloaded an APK from a third party site, which works (I'm rooted). But I am unsure how to get the addons to work after installing them from the third party site :-/
I purchased the morespaces add-on previously and that is not in Google Play anymore as well.

Hello
Swipepad started to behave weird. It needed an update... So I gave up. I guess I still have the backup from the more space add-on. I made the backup with titanium backup.
However, in the meanwhile I switched to xposed edge. The app is nice. Plenty of features. The responsiveness although is not perfect. There is sometimes a delay of a second or two. I don't know if there is a way to prioritize the app. I am on Resurrection remix.

In the meantime, I'm attempting to make the Swipepad add-ons system apps based on a suggestion from this thread. My TI backup was wiped along with the rest of my phone. I may have a copy on my desktop when I get home. If not, can you send me a TI copy of yours?

Sure, let me know when you need the backup.
That edge app is actually very easy to use. Nevertheless, it took a while till I figured it out. At the beginning it's a bit counterintuitive.
