Anyone try this yet? We can run tegra and adreno specific games with plugins. I can get it to install the driver but can not seem to get plugins to install. Night mode works fine.

No problems for me. Riptide GP, Fruit Ninja THD, and Samurai II:Vengeance all work fine. Gonna try out Bruce Lee after I finish downloading the data.

How did you get the market to work. Couldn't install plugins from my sd it was so full it was locking up used an empty one and they installed quickly.

I bought the Pro version, which lets you fix the market to shoe the Tegra2 specific games. Considering I'm getting a Xoom soon, I just bought some of the games.

When I first used the Chainfire 3D drivers was with my HTC HD2 with Windows Mobile! I was a miracle to make SenseUI work better... but I never play games. Under Android (since I still never play games, but I also dont have WinMo or SenseUI) is there actually any advantage to use this driver??
Probably not just games

I'd like to know how to do the market fix as well. I paid the $4 for the pro app and did the fix. Still can't find the games listed above.
I saw that someone said to download sgs tools and do that market fix. Still can't find those games. Maybe cuz I have a themed market?
I'd like to know how I can put this chainfire 3d to use.

I appreciate the work that has gone into chainfire 3d. But please dont buy THD games for use with chainfire. Devs will continue to make tegra only games if they sell well.
I am wondering which app do you guys use to take screenshots? I used Screenshot for a bit but the fact that the program name is 'screenshot' on my phone pisses me off a bit, haha (unless, is there a way to rename apps on your app drawer? Same with sdrescan, ha, wish I could rename that), but I heard about ShootMe and I was wondering if people though the quality of pictures were different between the two, or if there is a preference.
Not sure if this could go under Themes & Apps or Q&A (since this is a question about an app, although maybe someone knows how to rename apps, ha). If this is in the wrong forum, I apologize and I will move it to the correct one.
Some launchers will let you rename apps in the drawer and homescreen and/or just create shortcuts with the name you want. I'm sure there's an app on the market that will let you do something similar shortcut-wise.
As for screenshots, the two most popular for as long as I can remember are drocap2 and Shootme. Used Shootme initially then went to drocap for a while. Currently trying Shootme again since they added the screencast feature for low fps videos.
I use shoot me...the quality is great and the app is simple to use

+1 on shoot me.
I use to use drocap2 on my Droid X and the quality was great and shoot me didn't have good quality. I used drocap2 several times with no problems in the first few weeks but now the quality is horrible, I'm not sure if its my Rom or an update to the app causing it but now shoot me works really well on my phone. It seems all the apps have their strengths and weaknesses depending on the phone/rom your running.
ShootMe is great, even let's you take videos (though they aren't perfect)
i use shoot me

I use Shootme! LOL Oh btw for renaming apps on your Homescreen, try an app called Bettercut. Lets you change icons and name of an app on your homescreen.
I like ShootMe. The quality is good and it has a neat shake to take picture feature.
another vote for ShootMe, as stated above i really like the shake to take a picture feature.
+ for shoot me. Only wish there was another way to start the video. Like being to shake to start or cover the light sensor. Don't particularly like to start the video showing me starting the video...lol
Its on the market now anyone get this to work on the sgs2 so far it seems like its fifty fifty

Bought it for my touchpad, works flawlessly. Can't get it to work on SGSII-ATT - when starting new game, freezes on about 2%.
Anyone else have this issue?
Ok, looks like I had the wrong cache.
Download this cache: http://www.multiupload.com/G58745X0U5
Put into /sdcard/Android/data/
Install chainfire3d
Install chainfire3d driver
Check "unroll textures" in chainfire3d
Play game without any lag
EDIT: The above is not relevant. You don't need chainfire to run this game with no lag, I just had some freak glitch in the beginning.
Works fine for me
works good for me too. i dont even need chainfire
Working good here, no chainfire as well.
OP, thx for bringing this to my attention as well.
How are you getting it? I don't see it. Do I need to get shady
Sent from AT&T SGS2
Works great here with no chainfire needed.
That's weird.. working here. I am running completely stock though, fwiw.
Got the apk off ipmart and post-500mb-data download, everything works great!
On a side note, this is really grand! A proper game port on something so thin... Today's tech really amazes me thinking 2-3 years back.
Can someone give an HONEST comparison of gta3 vs gamelofts gangstar games?

This file will enable all 2d lighting effects (street lights, stop lights, car brake lights, neon signs, etc).
Installation: replace file in sdcard/android/data/com.rockstar.gta3/files/GTA3/
Have fun.
Game runs for 30 seconds before crashing, bummer

4pda.ru. Basically Russian XDA.
What this is is just the .set file from the tegra2 game data build. I don't know why they lumped the SGS2 with all the low-end phones, because it's not lagging at all even with 2dfx on.

Hi,
I recently made a switch to CM9. I was using an App made for webOS called Zite. I like Zite and want to continue using it. I found app in Google Play. I am trying to install Zite from Google Play. But it shows message that "your device is not compatible with this version". I tried modifying build.prop but there was no impact. Is there a way to install Zite on CM9?
Thanks
Do you have any other android devices? You could try side loading from one of them...
Never mind, I uploaded it here for you since it's a free app. Just use your file explorer to install it!

Flipboard is really awesome. In app experience is just awesome. Smooth like butter on TP. U can't install it from play store though (like zite). Side load it using the procedure mentioned above by SGA

On android zite does not support tablets. Have you tried to side load it? Try to Google zite.apk the only problem with this method is it won't do updates but you might get it to work until they come out with a tablet version.
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
If you can't get Zite working well for you you might want to look at the app called Google Currents. Even when I was using webos I wasn't a big fan of Zite . Currents works pretty well.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
I have never used Zite but as others mentioned, Flipboard (side load required), Google Currents (loads fine from market) & Pulse (market loadable) are a few that work perfectly good on TP.
Thanks for responses. I have Flip board, Google currents, APPY Geek and Pulse in addition to Zite. I use all these apps. I almost exclusively use those . I recollect installing all these from play store with cm9 June version. No side loading. But now (with aug version) it won't let me. Even Flip board says app is not compatible, however I have it already installed. My major issue with Flip board is, it only works in portrait mode.
Zite on webOS is beautiful. I am a business user and am one of those who like webOS's simple user interface.

Ok I am sure all netflix users have found out that we have been had. There app will automatically update and no matter what I do I can't stop it. The new app is not very responsive and fails to load all the thumbnails. It's not as bad on the 3vo as it is on the og but still sucks. Plus I liked the old look better. So what I am wondering is if anyone knows how to stop it from upgrading?

Did you uncheck the auto update on the market? Mine never updates.
Yes I did. I still have the black splash and auto rotation but the main ui has changed.

Unfortunately there is no way to stop the update. I have a backup of netflix in titanium backup from about 4 months ago and as soon as I restore the app and data it loads the new interface. I thought netflix was slow before, I didnt think they could make it any worse. They might be trying to push people to upgrade their devices. The app works on the 3vo, but my wife has an evo 4g and it barely works now.
yeah i am in the same boat. i have the og and my ole lady has the 3vo. damn you netflix!!!!!!
The Netflix app's user interface is really just a web page. There is NO way whatsoever to get the old user interface back, because it is served directly from Netflix, as opposed to being a native Android user interface.
I agree that it blows. Why can't Netflix make a UI that lets us actually be able to browse ALL of the available titles? For instance, if I check the science fiction movies on the app, I apparently have a choice of about 20 movies or so to watch. Yet, you can search and find all kinds of additional titles. Why can't I just browse the damn library of titles?!?!
After a little bit digging.. Seems to be a server side updated rather than a full app update...

I very much agree. Netflix is quite un-user friendly. Half the time you have to know what you want to watch and search for it, and even then it's very hit and miss. I especially don't follow why Netflix has say... movies 2 and 3 in a series, but not the first one. DEFINITELY needs a massive UI update to allow entirely library browsing. not just whatever 75 titles they feel like showing at the current time.
I got fed up with Netflix, left August 1st.
Once Amazon gets a little better selection I'll head over there.
