Any way to play high end android games on our phone??

Basically I want to know if there is a way I can play high end games like Dark Meadows on the E4GT. When I go into it in the play pen it says my device isnt compatible. Am I SOL or is there anything I can do to get it on are device? Any answer or reply would be appreciated.

Those games are only compatible with tegra processors. There is a mod that will spoof the phone and allow the game run. Search Chainfire 3d in the market. You may have to download the game from the Tegra Zone app.

There are very few GameLoft games that work on any Archos G9 devices to start with. For the few that do, they usually only show up on Google Play as being compatible with the 101 G9. Reason, simple, the 101 is wide screen, while the 80 G9 has a 4:3 aspect.
Unfortunately, I do not have enough room (memory left) on my 101 G9 to test things, but very often if you have another device that Google Play will let you install something one... then you can often use some app to make a backup of it, and then transfer that to your other devices and "side load" it.
Some things simply will not work at all, but I've found many that do work on my other devices but... sometimes the opening video does not display correctly... usually can just tap on the screen to skip it or just let it play out until it gets to the real game stuff.
I hate to say it, but you very likely will find a lot of things that are listed on Google Play as not being compatible with the 80 G9 simply because most apps were made for smartphones (or tablets) that have wider screens (16:9 or 16:10) instead of the 4:3 aspect the 80 G9 has.
Just as a side note, I have 3 Archos tablets (well, actually more but won't get into it here)... the 70b (with Android Honeycomb), and both the 80 and 101 G9 "classic" 8Gig models (with only 512M system RAM). Although not everything I've tried works on all of them, I have found that most things do if I can get it installed on whatever Google let's me (and have enough space to do so), and then make a backup, and copy it over to "side load" on the other(s). Of course, that only works because all of my devices use the same Google account.
BTW: What I mean by "side load", in case you do not already know... is that when you make a backup of an app and then try to install that .apk file on any device, it will complain about it being from an "unknown" source as a security protection. You have to go into Settings on the device and change it to allow installing from unknown sources first. Make sure you go back and turn that back off again afterward!

Got good and bad news...
First, the good news... Yes, you can install Dungeon Hunters 3 from Google Play on a 101 G9.
Now the bad news... and as expected...
Like ALL GameLoft games up until the only 2 they released this year...
Dungeon Hunters 3, even though it does install on a 101 G9 does not run, it just crashes out shortly after start up.
Transferred a copy over to my 80 G9 and the good news, yes it would install and download the rest of the game, but bad news... as mentioned, like ALL Gameloft games (except for the 2 they released this year) it also just crashes shortly after start up.
After Archos and GameLoft finally got an agreement worked out between them, then GameLoft released 2 games that would run on Archos G9 device. One of them is Asphalt 7: Heat, and I think the other one is The Amazing Spider-Man. I know Asphalt 7 works on both my 101 and 80 G9. Have not tested The Amazing Spider-Man, but I assume it will also work (because those 2 are the only ones noted in any tablet news sites as being able to run on Archos G9 devices).
Sorry dude, but that's just the way it is.

Ever since Gameloft transitioned to a universal package for their games (universal apk and OBB resource files), their games can be run on a G9 tablet (at least G9 80 Turbo). Perhaps it does not show as compatible on the Play Store, but the games generally work (Dark Knight Rises, Amazing Spiderman, Asphalt 7, Wild Blood, Modern Warfare 3,...).
There might be problems with menu scaling, and problems to get the games to install.

I bought asphalt 7 from play store and it feels laggy with 4.0.26 deodexed, so I installed oc kernel. I have archos g9 101 turbo, so i over clocked to 1,6ghz. Even after that it was a bit laggy so I installed chainfire 3d and dropped graphics to 16bit. I was thinking of enabling both cores and using performance to make it lag free without chainfire. Do you guys have any experience or a way to make it run better?

2Gb zf2 won't keep apps in memory..

Hey guys I m not able to run two games ie beach buggy blitz and riptide gp2 at a time, if running one other closes... restarts upon opening.. But a reviewer called allabouttechnologies played Mc5, gta San Andreas and nova i guess and all resumed from where they are on the same 2gb model... wtf is wrong with my phone?? not able to get proper help....
Video here: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YvZYOybbZd0
Also my ram never goes below 300mb.. No matter how many apps i run in the background... they just close in the background... And I have seen users getting 200 odd free ram... not in my case... so it may be the latest update?

I've never played two games at once because that's ridiculous. But to answer your question android's memory management is killing 1 game in order to reclaim more RAM & avoid the critical state. I imagine those games each need a lot, so the 4GB variant would be better for you.
"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"

Yeah I know nobody would play two games at a time... But how did the guy in the video do that?? And when i m on coc or any other game if i get a WhatsApp notification and if i see the msgs and revert back to game it would restart.. And there would be no other running apps in background...

I can do that in my 4GB version. Maybe 2GB isn't enough? Moreover, there are many memory leak issues in 5.0 so memory management is very unpredictable.

Games, emulators (PSP & others) - gameplay & tutorials

Update 1: 12 Nov 2016
Since I don't have the Note 7 anymore, all this thread is continued in Galaxy S7 Edge forum.
I will not post here anymore.
You can go here for my latest post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/best-android-apps-games-tutorials-t3482704
Thanks.
I am super happy with my Note 7 (version 2 replaced).
I have no problems at all with this device.
It is a super "gaming machine".
I really like the PSP emulator. I recomend it.
Do you use any other emulators?
Here are some of my gameplays on PSP + stock market games

Here is the the tutorial for how to configure / use the PSP emulator on Android & run games

Extreme gameplay? Note 7 can handle.
I made a test with multiple games: GTA, Assassin Creed, Valiant Hearts, Real Racing 3, ShadowGun.
Note 7 is amazing. Just watch my test.
The phone doesn't heat. Everything is smooth.
The first one (version 1 before the replacement) had some issues.
What do you use to play?
Any good games? Or new games?

Some recommended setting in ppsspp... I would reference the site I got it from... but forgot where...
Mode: Non-buffered rendering
Frameskipping: 1 or 3 "read online some run better with odd number and other might be better with even numbers"
Prevent FPS from exceeding ON
Alt. Speed: Unlim
Hardware transform ON
Vertex cache ON
Timer hack ON
Disable alpha test ON "i left this one off though as it wont render like rain in FFT right"
Disable stencil test ON
Always write depth ON
System:
Fast memory ON
Change CPU clock: 400 "I personally put this similar to psp mem clock like 333 or 444"
JIT ON
Anyways I did transform my note 7 when i had it into a massive emu machine... then my vita got updated to a better emulation mode... lol so now I'm using that again for emulation gaming. I still will leave the emu on the phone for backup gaming or let other play.
List of emu I made a decision on:
GBA.emu
Snes9x EX+
Nes.emu
Genesis
PPSSPP
Gensoid
Mupen64Plus FZ Edition
ePSXe
Gemboy!
I was also looking into controllers for it too but no longer need it cause of the Vita.
Power A Moga
Gamesir
SteelSeries

Ive been using retroarch which uses the libreto API to emulate basically anything you can think of, and downloads the cores required to play whatever ROMs you put on your SD card.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.retroarch&hl=en
I use it mainly for SNES and Megadrive (aka Genesis) emulation, but works well with PS1

Using either one Retro or the standalone one I mention will need Bios files for psx, nes, and gba. Just like other forums it not allow to tell you where to get it but google it ^_^.... Same go for roms...
For RetroArch you put those files in the system folder and the others is either the main folder or the "bios" folder.
One thing i dont like about retroarch on phone atm is the retroarch bar that you cant hide without hiding the controls. It might beable to be disable but idk yet
SCPH1001.Bin, gba_bios.bin, and disksys.rom = psx, gba, and nes

I discovered that if we change the resolution of Note 7 from 2k to 1920, all games from psp will work perfect on highest settings, even the star war. Great discovery.

A good question

Gaming/Emulating games on the 8 Pro, what's possible?

Happy new year all.
Just thinking of flashing a new ROM and was contemplating what could be possible on current hardware.
The last time I ran a test from top to bottom I hit the ceiling at ps2 emulation but that was dodgy
Anyway, I personally haven't used any of the new emulators for a while so wondered what is currently possible? What have you used? What worked? Or was good?
I know in theory 90% of Wii games should work and everything underneath it, so GameCube, PSP, PSX, N64, Dreamcast, Saturn, 32x, jaguar, arcade, mega drive, SNES, Neogeo.
Any info, ideas, cool stuff,

IMO it all depends on the game.
I play NSMB Wii through dolphin and that works great. But as an example, I can't get Rogue Leader on GC to play on anything except a good GPU on a PC. The Hoth level brings everything to it's knee's and OP8P is no exception.
AetherSX2 is great for PS2 emulation and with a few tweaks seems to play everything very well. I tried shadow of the collosus and Black and both were very playable. Check youtube for how to tweak.
But yea, everything below that seems to work great. Dreamcast, PSP, PS1, Mame. I even managed to get Killer Instinct arcade working throuh retroarch and that worked very well.
You can also play packages for Doom 3 and OG Half Life as well as HL2 and Portal with hacky APK's.

What's NSMB?
Shadow of the colossus? If that's working then that's really really impressive, that absolutely pushed the ps2 to the limit, the use of fog to keep graphics in memory was genius for it's time and to manage to keep the frames up on ps2 hardware.
Cheers will have a look at that ps2 emulator, nice one.
PS:. I've got a guide on how to run PC games with native files

One of the things i've been using for gaming has been this app https://parsec.app/
Pop it on a PC you game on then log in, change some settings then leave that PC alone.
On a second device, android / mac / or other windows device, download the app from the link and install it.
Log in and you can then control the PC you installed it on in the first place, i have to say that the speed of input is really really good, i was massively impressed by the responsiveness and ability to play through games with minimal setup required.
Few things to change.
Set resolution to 1920x1080
Change network to latency / performance
Change network allowed to max / 50Mb
Renderer - DX11
That should work as expected.

I played some PS2 games on my Huawei P30 Pro already.
For the nature of emulation, not every game works. But everything below PS2 and below WII U is probably very enjoyable. Most emulators are open source and are ported to android anyway.
I would say God of War from PS2 is playable on the 8 Pro.
