Hi,
about a year ago I had Xperia Play R800i white color. I broke my touch screen so buy new one - orange color, newer model, but still R800i. And when I'm trying to play games that I played in past on my old Xplay like Modern Combat 2, Backstab, FIFA 12, Real Racing 2 etc. in Google Play it says it's incompatible with my device. If I download it myself from internet (cause I can't install them from Play Store even if I bought them in the past cause incompatibility) some of them work (Real Racing 2) but many of them still not - FIFA 12, Modern Combat 2. I'm using Gin2Kittkat 3.2.0 and .79 baseband, Lupus kernel v12 720p. Have someone the same problem? Especially games from Gameloft aren't compatible - mainly these which have even bee Xplay optimized. Newer games and games which are not optimized for XPlay i can run well.
This is so annoying - I should have backed up the compatible APKs for thoses apps. There are many apps which were compatible with our Play, but aren't anymore :
- Feedly,
- Evernote,
- Lara Croft Guardian of light,
- Sonic episode 2
- Super Monkey Ball (crash)
- Wayward Soul (crash)
- Galaxy on fire 2 (data cannot be downloaded anymore...)
If anyone could share the compatible APK of those apps (that I bought !), would be greatly appreciated !
Just type into Google search: name of the app + apk version history. Most of the apps can be downloaded on apk4fun, which is in most of cases the first link when you search for some old apk. There are plenty of apps which aren't compatible anymore. It's sad but Xperia play and Gingerbread are too much old. Subway surfers, Jetpack Joyride, Gangstar Vegas and many other games were compiled for 2.3 and runned well in the past. Onenote, feedly, Mapy.cz (I'm from Czech Republic and this is the best map for Europe), Es file Explorer and plenty others were compatible. Nowadays aren't. You have two choices: upgrade to at least Jellybean (last with gamepad support) or stick with the old apps version until death of your phone.

It is Asphalt5. Now for your daily dose of irony. It doesn't run on the A7!
I sent them an e-mail about it and got nothing.
It appears than none of the Gameloft games run on the A7.
Top Games for my A7:
Astraware Casino (makes use of full tablet screen)
Fruit Ninja
Pocket God

Runs just fine on my A7.
Air Attack HD
Personally I enjoy the emulators along with the xbox mod
Tegra2 demo of NFS Shift (i tested it and it runs ok)
only one level playable , from here you need to buy the full game (for AT&T network users only i think)
Gameloft games
Just a quick fyi. Some gameloft games work on the elocity. I've tested:
works:
Asphalt 5 (works perfectly)
Assassins Creed (sucks without multitouch)
Sandstorm (ok without multitouch)
Dungeon hunter (works great, lighting seems messed up)
Dungeon hunter 2 (works great, some textures whited out, only on menus though)
Hawx (works perfectly)
doesnt work:
Modern Combat 2 (downloads files but doesn't work)
Avatar (not at all)
Brothers in arms 2 (not at all)
Nova (downloads files but doesn't work)
GT Racing (downloads files but doesn't work)
Skype
Can I ask if anyone has successfully got Skype going on their A7. I've been trying but just can't get it going.

- if you got stock, its not working
- if you got the Mod edition, it should work fine, as the build prop fix is included.
Thanks for the reply. Okay now for the big question, where do I get the MOD EDITION?
Many thanks for your patience
i did mean ElocityMod here, not a Skype modified edition..
if you look in dev. section you can find the mod rom's there..

I'd have to agree, the A7 is an awesome emulator in your pocket
Hey guys,
I'm considering getting an Xperia Play as my daily driver and using my Samsung Infuse as my "GalaxyS Touch", but I was wondering if a couple games are available.
Has anybody seen the Tony Hawk games available for this? How about Spyro? Ridge Racer Type 4? also, can the game buttons be mapped in NESoid? Aaaand my last question, is it possible to load your own PS1 games onto the device? I'm sorry if some of these questions have already been asked. I did use the search function first, seriously!
As of now the only PS1 game out in the US is Crash Bandicoot which comes with it. There have been some other releases that show on the Android market but can't be downloaded unless your phone is rooted.
https://market.android.com/developer?pub=Sony+Computer+Entertainment+America
That said, you can convert many PS1 games as long as you have the disc to work with the phone using this method, its free:

I believe people are using the control pad with the "oid" emulators as well.
Well I'm going on holiday soon and I wanted to know some Must have's to entertain me on the FOur and half hour flight, Any suggestions?
You probably would have already got the list...but in my opinion...the games would be
1. GTA III
2. Gangster Rio
3. Trial Xtreme 2
The Apps which I have and might be useful are (apart from the already present default ones like Google Maps and stuff)
1. Tasks
2. Shazam
3. Viber
4. Whatsapp
I would like to see more suggestions myself as I will be travelling to attend a music festival myself...
Any emulators by yongzh
I don't understand the fascination with Yongzh emulators.... apart from netplay, they are worse in just about every way than other emulators... n64oid is probably the exception, and we dont have an alternative (yet) to gameboid, but the rest have much better alternatives available.
I pray every day for another gba emulator, gameboid looks horrid and I cant stand to play games looking that blurry, its an assault to the eyes.
I like loop / music making programes to play around for a bit, using nanoloops for that atm. and works good
If you got Wifi there, go for veetle or sopcast player to watch some flicks.

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?

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.

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
