Running great on my MoPho and I/O gtab. You can go to the market on you computer and send it to your MoPho , that's what worked for me
photon with cm7
The game started up and downloaded the extra files but now it wont display anything then force closes. I'm running cm7 with the new 1.4 oc kernel. Any ideas?
So i uninstaled and reinstalled the game and works perfect now. I remember the first time downloading the extra files there was an error of some kind. No error on second try tho and works great.
I first had a problem where my internal storage was full but instead of saying so while trying to download the extra files, it just says no internet connection could be found. After clearing up that issue, the extra files downloaded but I am met with a black screen upon running the app. If I press the back button a message appears on the screen asking me press back once more to quit. I restarted my phone and it did not help. I cleared the app data and I'm currently downloading the files again.
Unrooted Stock Photon with all updates.
*Edit* Someone in the below thread said their issues were resolved by installing over wifi instead of 3G, which is what I have been trying. I will try installing over wifi tonight.

looks surprisingly well, controls are pretty good, although when driving the car the left and right steer are really sensitive but i didnt really mess around with the settings yet but looks 10 times better than it did on my ps2 when it came out. a classic
The game runs great for me, running rooted/unlocked CM7, but I'm having issues with the sound - not getting any at all. Anyone else have that issue?
anyone know what to use for wiimote controls?

Did it show up in the market when you manually typed it into your photon after you pulled the APK?

Nope, used a link to get to the app page in the market and it gives me the same incompatible message.
For whatever it's potentially worth for other problems, I solved my sound issue by simply uninstalling, re-downloading, and reinstalling the game. I assume some file containing the audio quietly failed to get properly downloaded.
if you are using jokers skinnyrev2test2, you wont be able to see it on the market however once you change rom's ( to lets say cm7 ) the market will see it just fine..

So, it's just been announced that certain phones have Netflix app for Android (HTC Incredible, Nexus One, and EVO 4G with Android 2.2 installed. It’s also supported on the Nexus S and Nexus One with Android 2.3 installed.) while others will have it eventually.
Is it possible to get this apk and try it on our phones? Its a free app, so I don't see why passing it out on XDA would be against the rules.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
(mods, if this is considered bad, idk why as its free and you still have to have an account, please just edit this link out)
Well, it installed and loaded perfectly.
I can also change my queue no issues, however, I cannot watch a movie. It gives an error about my device not being supported.
Maybe a hack job can fix?
If I understand right, we have to wait til sammy or verizon provides a DRM update to make the phone compatible. I don't believe you bypass it, though i am not a dev so I might be wrong.

Same on Fascinate. It would not work with the Nexus S setting at all. The HTC Setting gave me the same thing as Sophos1.
So....I installed the old leaked apk and was able to get past the login screen. It gave me the "device not supported' error only after I tried to load a show, but it never FCed. I am linking the file in case others have better luck than I.

How did you guys get the version from the market to update the TW version? When i go out to the Market "Open" is the only option I get.
when you go into settings>applications what version do you have installed? I am running 3.61
Mine shows up as 3.59. Funny thing is that the Market version says 3.61 but "open" is the only option I get.

Try clearing the cache for your market and see if it will come up
Mine is version 3.59 as well.

I just emailed the dev.

Sweet, glad you got it working. Good idea on doing the web page market and forcing the upgrade. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I have seen often programs not able to update properly when they are located /system/app. Since the it was part of the upgrade to TW, they have it located there.
The install from Market worked great for me as well.
Never knew you could do that.

TripleTapper, can you please explain more? Now do you "force install" from the market? It just tells me that my Nook Color is incompatible with the app, and the buttons are greyed out.

I just opened the Market using the browser on my PC. When I do that and search for Words for Friends I click on install. It then gives me an option to install onto my various Android devices by selecting it from a pull down. My Galaxy Tab comes up as Samsung GT-P7510.

Not sure if this will help, but this is how i was able to get it to work.
If you (or anyone you know) has an android phone, install the apk. to the phone. Update the app if it isnt already updated. Donwload the data. Then, move the data from the phone SD card to your Nooks SD Card. It should be saved under Android-data-com.eamobile.nfsshift_na_wf.
I will say that after I did this, i had to reset my Nook to get the app to notice the data, but it works fine now.
Hope that helps.

This is because his phone has a PowerVR (like the NC) gpu while yours probably has a qualcomm or nvidia. You need the correct type of sd card data.
I bought this an was really enjoying Shift until I had to re-image the NC.
Now, I have an odd issue. In the Market, I can't even see NFS Shift. However, on my other NC, I can see NFS Shift and can download again if needed.
How do I get my re-imaged NC to see it in the Market to re-download?
Thanks!

The android market is a fickle thing. I flashed the same ROM (CM7n253) to multiple Nooks. Only one of them won't allow me to download Google Earth because it's "incompatible." The only difference between the devices is that I assigned them unique IMEIs. I put "Blood and Glory" on my NC and I was going to put it on the others only to find that it doesn't show on the market. Checked market website and sure enough it's listed as "incompatible". Checked my NC and now it's listed as "incompatible" too. Good thing it's a free app, I just titanium backed it up and loaded it on the others. I really wish android market had an advanced mode where you could ignore it's "compatibility" settings.
I'd also like to have a way to gift games (a la steam) cause I would have bought a lot more at the holiday sale if I could have just emailed the codes or had it open on their markets.
apk and data from a Droid X
I installed the apk from my Droid X (which I purchased) along with the data but when I attempt to start the game I get an error message that says "Error (Airplay v4.3.10 [2599558]) S3E_DEVICE_PHONE_NUMBER: This device don't have a phone number!".
Thoughts anyone?
UPDATE: The game starts after I click off that error message. However, even though the game will see the data from my previous game play from my Droid X (money, experience points, etc) it still displays the message "If you want to purchase the full game." even though the copy off of my Droid X was purchased. It also doesn't let me change tracks either so I'm stuck on the Tokyo one.
Hi everyone,
I was wondering if you guys are also getting the Sims free play as unavailable in the play store.
I had it on my tablet before updating to .21 from a fresh .15 zip but didn't reinstall it since. Today I wanted to install it again but now i can't find it in the store and on the website version it says unavailable for your device. I did notice it got an update on 6 April but it seems weird to me to make less devices supported. Anyone knows what sup? I've googled around but there wasn't anything to find on it.

Acording to Titanium Backup, the version I uploaded is 1.1.5. I tried to update it, but shows now as no compatible with my Prime. Ill try to get it on my Defy and see if it works
Thanks, Zephyrot - appreciate it!
I've found that while playing Sims Freeplay on my Prime, that everytime the game looses focus it will crash without fail. I guess that is the reason it isn't currently compatible with the Prime.
It plays fine on my GalaxyS which is where I copied it from to my Prime. Although it does get a bit slugish on the phone.
Tested it, and indeed, if the game lose focus it will crash once you go back.
I have not tried the new 1.2.3 version yet, but the 1.1 that I uploaded before does this.
Here is the link for the newer 1.2.3
I have that version already installed and it does still crash when it looses focus
Any idea how to get the game working again after it crashes? Every time I try to start the game now, it crashes after loading what looks like an ad for the latest update, which is weird. I got past the crash point once by restarting the TFP, but that hasn't worked again.

What seems to work for me is to turn off the wifi after the game does it's first server content check then turn it back on after it tells me I need an I an internet connection to play. Click on retry quickly when you turn the wifi back on. I still occasionally get the add pop up but not as often.
Not really sure if this will work for you though but probably worth a shot.

That works for me to. Have to turn off your wifi start the game and wait for it to mention no internet connection, then turn on the wifi again and hit retry. This method also works if you get the ad up that crashes the game.

At least you got it to install, I get the message telling me that it's incompatible with my device. However, the TWC TV app (which it is likely rebranded from) installs fine. Just doesn't do much good when I have Brighthouse.
Brightouse is claiming "A rooted device does not allow us to set the permissions the LiveTv app needs to function properly".
Is this not such a bunch of crap. If their coders were worth a gain of salt they should have no problem changing or modding any permissions their app requires.
I'm guessing they are scared that rooted devices are able to record anything on the desktop. Sadly there are apps to help non-rooted devices to record the desktop too. So what would be the point of even searching for the xbin folder, which again I'm guessing that they are doing.. If this in fact what they are doing, could we add an app to rename that folder when the BH app is launched and rename it back when it closes?

Sounds like a bunch of bull****. A bit pissed that it aint working because of the stupid rooted crap. Someone has to find a way to modify the installation of this app but who will????
Thanks guys for the responds. Like everyone is saying it is a bunch of BULL****, but hopefully someone will come up for a solution to break this. By the way I started thinking why does it matter if our phones are rooted to B.H.. We pay them for service to our TV/Internet not our phones. It is not of their business what we do with our phones and if we made a decision to root, they should not block this app. to us. We pay the same amount that the person that did not root and they get to use this App.
I tried a little but the program won't get far enough along to help because usb debugging was enabled. I was using eclipse to monitor the log file while I launched the app.
There's a somewhat interesting (too much iFruit for me) discussion here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r27195196-iPhone-Android-tablet-users-get-Bright-House-TV-App-Joy- on the subject. Looks like the reason behind the ICS only is because of DRM. Is it possible, the same reasoning was applied to devices being rooted or not?
the TWC app got a fix for rooted users, any chance there will be a rooted-compatible apk for the brighthouse app?
Wahoo!!
