Hi all, I'm really sorry if this has already been posted anywhere but I could not find it so I thought I'd share it hoping it was useful for someone. This is a windows application that will take your Gameloft HD .apk files and patch them so that the downloaded game data will be stored and read from your external SD on your Galaxy S. It has saved me a lot of grief chopping and changing SD data for games depending on what I wanted to play as I bought about a dozen Gameloft HD games but could only fit the data for a select few on my internal SD.
Tested working on my SGS so far: -
Real Football 2011
Asphalt 6
Assassins Creed
Avatar
Dungeon Hunter
Dungeon Hunter 2
Eternal Legacy
Fast 5
Gangstar Miami Vindication
Hero Of Sparta
Lets Golf
Lets Golf 2
Modern Combat 2
Nova
Nova 2
Rainbow 6 Shadow Vanguard
Sacred Odyssey
Sandstorm
Shadow Guardian
Spiderman Total Mayhem
Splinter Cell Conviction
Star Front Collision
The Settlers HD
It changes the path within the game from /sdcard/gameloft/games/ to /sdcard/external_sd/Gl/ so all you need to do is either download the game data again or move it into the Gl folder on your external SD card.
I did not write this, a fella named Duero over on 4pda.ru made it but the site is all in Russian so I thought it would be useful here. If it has already been posted or anyone has any objections to me posting it then please let me know rather than flame me.

asphalt 5 HD 3.1.9 and gt racing motor academy 3.1.1 works great too on my SGS.
Help?
Total noob here...could you please give me some instructions?
This is not working dude
Works fine for me. Simply download the attached file then:
1. Run the file
2. Select the .apk file of the Gameloft game you wish to patch
3. Wait a while as it decompiles the .apk, edits the files and then recompiles it
4. Save the new .apk file somewhere
5. Transfer the .apk file to your phone and install
Simple
ThanX Man .. ThanX

It needs to be put in a folder on your external_sd called GL, so your folder structure will look like - external_sd\Gl\*Game Name*
Works a treat on my phone and many others
For those like me that aren't on Windows, there is also another method (by script) : [HOWTO] to Gamers: dirty workaround to have Gameloft files on external_sd, by lunasea
lunasea said:
Looked around, and the only workaround I've found was a crack that opens the game apk and changes the download destination directory. Well, I wasn't very comfortable in using this, and it only worked on some games.
So I configured the following "dirty" workaround, I know it's not perfect, but it resolved my problem so I decided to share here.
Basically I've moved gameloft directory from sdcard to external_sd and created a bind mount point called gameloft on sdcard pointing to external_sd. This has the problem that you can only mount that bind point before using the gameloft games, because if you keep it mounted and use storage usb you'll have problems mounting sdcard.
So I've created two scripts - one to mount it, another to unmount it -, and using script manager created a shortcut (actually is a script manager widget) to both scripts on my screen. Whenever I want to use/install gameloft games I mount it, and in the end dismount the bind.
Additional steps for gamming, but restored my sdcard space and now I can use my 16G external sd for that files. Note that if your external card is slow, the game load will be slower.

That should work fine, I'm really not sure why its not working for you. Are you trying to replace the apk files once they're patched or saving them in a different directory? All I did was save the apk files I wanted to patch in one directory, load the patcher and patch 1 file then save the new file in a different directory then just repeat the process. I'm not sure if you need to have java installed on your pc and its directory set up in the system paths option but it all worked for me

works with my SGS i9003
..yey! ..tnx a lot!
..works with my SGS i9003.
..works on: sandstorm, brothers in arms 2, gangstar: west coast hustle, shrek kart ..and will be adding more!!!!!
tips:
..download link above to your pc..works with my win 7.
..be patient while the auto.patch is generating the patched apk until it gives u the option to save it..give it maybe 30-60sec.
..folder should be in this format: "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Gl"
..make sure folder is allredy created before installing the game(apk patched)
..you could use either already downloaded game data or redownload again once you open the game.
..tnx a lot and very nice work with the link and guide and also the creator,, DUERO! haha! good job!!!!
@hailmary

Man, can you explain what happen when waiting the creation of the patch? Because when I open the .exe it says to me find the .apk, ok, I find it and I click to open and the window is closed.. I want to know if that's it? or something else should happen? tks!
I am very very new to this and so excuse me if I make mistakes. I am not a developer but an end-user and I love your forum. The way it is
organized and explanations given.
Here is my problem:
1. How do I transfer files from my PC to my Samsung Galaxy III? I have ES Explorer but can't find a way to do it. I have rooted
my phone.
2. How do I copy apk and jar files to :\?
3. What do I need on my phone to make jar files and apk files run?
Thank you.

1. connect phone to pc and transfer files manually (as a media device. must have usb debug mode selected on phone), through kies/kies air or via a 3rd party program like airdroid
2. same technique as above
3. apk files can be accessed in the es explorer you have on your phone. select the apk and hit "install"

Reason it's saying that is because that *.obb file isn't put where it needs to go, so it wants to download it, and thinks it's not paid for.
I don't know the location on the AFTV as my ES File Explorer won't get off the SDCard. But it's generally ../android/obb directory.
Also, you need to copy the *.obb file over before installing the *.apk file, or it will error out with the same error.
Thanks for response. I tried that but didnt work. Here's my location of where the OBB file is
\Xperia Tablet Z\Internal storage\Android\obb\com-lego-fusion-townmaster

hmm, okay. Well, I'm getting my usb stick tomorrow and will have to deal with this myself, so give me a few days and maybe I'll have an answer for you.
Great! Hope you can figure this out. Thanks again
okay, what I have found out so far is that the obb directory is /sdcard/Android/obb and I needed to turn on root access in es file to see it.
Copying the directory of stuff into there, and then you install the *.apk
If you installed the *.apk first, then uninstall it, then copy the stuff over, then install it.
Should work for most stuff, but I haven't played with it much. Been busy.
Was really hard to find at first, the location. But I didn't have root enabled in es file.
Where did you find it?
Where did you get this obb file I've search the internet for it and all I get is this same exact post on 20 different website's.
Thanks

it's free, I didn't try it on my Amazon TV though.
I have some apps installed on my firestick 2 that I would like to move to my Sony Android tv, especially downloader. How can I extract the apk from the firestick to either my android phone or to a usb drive?
(OT Any help on how to sideload apps to the Android tv would also be appreciated).
Thanks.
/system/app
/system/priv-app
Thank you, but for that I would need to be rooted - which I am not.
Install es file explorer, go to apps, highlight the app you want by holding down the firestick central remote button, go to the bottom of the es explorer app where you’ll see backup, choose that. Repeat for each app or do it all at once. You’ll find the apk files stored in the backup folder under internal storage, backups, app. From there, pick your poison on how you transfer them to your Android tv.
In the past, I used dropbox to install apk files on to my stick. You could probably do the same with your Android tv box. The fire tv was simple because i could also use a usb flash drive plugged into the back to transfer / install the sideload apk files where as you need a two in one power/ usb cable for the stick to run the power and install a usb flash drive at the same time. I use lightning browser and if there’s an apk file I want quickly, I usually send it to my gmail account which I then download and install directly on to the stick. I use a mini bluetooth keyboard with the stick for easy input.
I’m sure there are a ton of other sideloading options. I just use what works for me.
