GTA 3 only works on cm7 v2.1 for me..... - TouchPad General

any ideas/suggestions to get it to working on v3.0 and/or v3.5?
everytime i boot it up on 3.5 it will load up but right until the car is on fire (beginning of the game) then it will freeze up and will be a mix of the splash screen and the car on fire
on 3.0 it will boot up and will finally goto the car being on fire, but then it will just sit there froze up on the car burning
any ideas please?

Maybe a corrupt data download? Try deleting the game data and try again.
I'm running 3.5 OC'd to 1782 and it runs without doing anything special.

is there a folder on the 'sd card' or you mean deleting the 'normal' way with clear app data?

still nothing

I'm running 3.5 with the HTC Sensation version of the game and I enabled the high quality graphics with that gta3.set file, no problems at all. Runs smooth.
Lights don't work still, but I'm looking on a fix for that.

Can you explain how you changed the gta3.set file? I've got a hex editor but can't find which values to change...

GTA 3 is working fine with Alpha 3.5.
I done nothing with GTA 3 setting.
I just install the apk and download data with Wifi !

HP Touchpad GTA3 SIXAXIS
Here is a link to my post with the files to set up sixaxis with the HP Touchpad.
Also you do not need to redownload the data , you can go inbetween both setting by just replacing the .set file. Hope this helps!

You can install it on UD1.0 too
Since the Version 1.8 (of chainfire) the app works on our gen8
+1 Install works fine since 1.8.
And what's the difference with or without it?

There doesn't seem to be much difference, maybe more stability, but if you install the Tegra plugin, you can play Tegra 2 games such as Samurai 2 Vengeance, though the performance is a bit laggy. There's two other plugins as well, but I haven't researched which games they enable.
Also, I love Night Mode when I'm out late bow-fishing. I can turn the screen on to change songs without killing my night vision.

Somebody say that they have a better game experience with it
i can say: Gun Bros works better
and you can set a few options for games about graphics details and quality
from my opinion its very good
OK, it seems it's worth to install I'll try it. I'm not a hardcore gamer, all I need is Filler and HexDefence and Need for Speed sometimes but if Starcraft will be ported to Android this could help, I think.

[Q] Onlive running on Gtablet?

Hi,
As some of you may know Onlive recently released an app for the HTC Flyer.
From the bottom of: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138194
It has been exported and gotten to run on a number of devices, however I am unable to get it to run on the Gtabet. I am running a rooted stock rom with the enhancement pack.
When running the Onlive viewer app the screen turns black for 1 second and then it goes back to the home screen with no messages. Has anyone has any luck with this app or any ideas as to why it does not work on the gtablet?
No one has any ideas? Onlive on the gtab would be amazing!
Havent tried it but it might be possible under CM7.
CM7
Just tried it on CM7 the market online says its compatible but won't download it.
Also on CM7: sideloaded it, but same issue as OP (turns black for 1 sec, then nothing).
Works on Gtab Comb v3.3

Downloads & installs on Gtab Comb v3.3. I've so far sucessfully played the demo version of Darksiders, Lego Batman & Lego Harry Potter. Play has been smooth. I have had it lock up a couple of times. CPU seems to get rather warm so not sure if it's a heat issue.

I've seen this issue on my gTab while trying to play some other games, like Contract Killer & C.K. Zombies.
This usually do to pixel density. You can change the default pixel desity by using Prop.Editor.
There are serveral posts that discuss how use it, but the value is in Build.prop, I'm sure google will return the post that has the file and specifics on how to use the app. Its not difficult at all.
Good luck

Shadowgun - DL failure

I set Chainfire 3d to these settings for Shadowgun.
In Chainfire3d: Default OpenGL settings
Reduce texture quality
Reduce texture size
Disable MapBuffer emu
The download of the additional files gets to 100% and then it crashes. Any idea on how I can get it to finish?
I have it on my XOOM, where in its file structure can I just copy it over to my Nook? Thanks.
I just copied over the entire com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder from my SD card on my phone and put it on the sd card for my nook. After doing that I started the app, it downloaded past 100 percent, but started right up. Plays perfectly so far.
You guys got shadiwgun working on this wow make me regret giving my nook to my wife and getting a Acer iconia tab
Lol

Mine works until its loading the first level. I can see the intro flawlessly, but when it finishes or is skipped I crash after a while in the loading screen. I don't get FC it just got back to previous screen (Chainfire)
it plays. very stuttery and jerky past the first level, but it still plays. When I first bought the game i couldn't get it to play but if you know how to search right, you can find a version floating around that has been optimized for none dual core devices.
That's the best I can give you. I paid for the game so i won't direct anyone to a pirated copy, but there is one floating out there that doesn't need tegra.
I tried the low version and still got same result. Maybe there's something wrong with my sd cache files since it kept freezing during the download...
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk
Here is what I did to get it to work:
1) Get ShadowGun v1.0 and SD files
2) On Chainfire3D go to default open gl settings
3) Set plugin "NVIDIA", check "reduce texture size", "disable mapbuffer emu" and "hide cf3d id" (check reduce texture quality if you want better performance)
4) Run game.
5) ???????
6) Yeah... Profit!
How do I get it from the market is says my nook color is not compatable?
The market version isn't going to work. You have to google for it.
Where do u get the plugin from? Can anyone help?
google "chainfire 3d plugins". you should be able to find it. By the way, the plugins are zip files, once you've extracted them from the file you download just put them on the root of your sd card and install from the program.
I have tried several times, but it will not find my plugin file. I downloaded the correct one and used drop box to put it on my nook. Can anyone help thanks
The files:
libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.zip
libGLEMU_POWERVR.zip
libGLEMU_NVIDIA.zip
need to be on the root folder of your SDcard.
Don't forget that you need to "install plugins" before "Use plugin/Load a plugin"
Igot that done, but now it bombs out after it gets to 99% of the first download. Any suggestions?
I had it bomb on all of the downloads. It you keep trying, they usually download. Did you try installing the sd files? When I did it caused me to freeze on the downloads. Keep trying, took me awhile... Nothing like downloading til 99% then freezing.. drove me nuts

Read my graphically intensive games thread (includes Modern Combat 3, NOVA 3, Dead Trigger, Shadow Gun, and Mass Effect Infiltraitor) for any games info and how it works, why it works, and how to do it yourself. No Chainfire is needed. Shadowgun and Dead Trigger can even be downloaded from the Play Store. Im not trying to sound like an ass, but make sure you SEARCH before you post. I had to learn it the hard way xD
All the stuff in the thread is CM7 and CM9 compatible.

Temple Run
Shadowgun
Dead Trigger

Here is a Last Kernel Message after testing some games and browsing the GUI.
Here are more Interesting reports.
I was able to catch a glitch from what it seems LCD or Refresh distortion and also some more Logcat Crashes
New misbehaved games:
Free from market:
Mayhem : Touch screen freezes game. Most problematic games do that.
Pinball Pro : 3 dots mute and unmute sound Pressing 3 dots i manage to crash Nook Tablet SOD then reboot/shutdown.
Attached here is a Logcat with Game Glow Hockey 2 that screen goes black when you start main game, and also i included Pinball Pro strange behaviour when pressing 3 dots mute/unmute audio.
Also Last kernel message after i leave Glow Hockey 2 displaying black screen for 1-2 min wich caused a reboot issue.

while many would love to help you fix your wifi issue, you need to provide more details than "wifi won't stay on"
assuming that you are on the latest version of chrmhoffmann's CM10 (per the thread title)
what is the environment and what are the symptoms?
is this your home wifi router?
how far away is the router?
is it secure?
are you getting interference from another router or transmitter, clutter on the channel?
what have you tried so far, have you re-flashed the ROM?
give us a little to go on and maybe we can help

So sorry. After I left the post I was thinking maybe it wasn't the right place.
To answer your questions...
I could be anywhere in my house. Signal could be very strong of very weak. The router is about 3-4 rooms away in a basement. I never had these issues with CM7. My router is secure WPA I believe. I'd have to double check. I'm not sure about any interference... But I can try to figure that out. (But never had issues with CM7)
Most of the game titles I have tried so far come from gameloft. Order and Chaos, Nova 2, Nova 3. I watch the numbers count up and they go very quickly say 30-40 mb in a few seconds then very very long pauses.Then another 30-40 mb in few seconds and then another very long pause and then after a while longer the wifi connection is lost. I go back to the main screen to find my wifi has actually turned itself off. Short downloads seem to be ok. Larger downloads are not. This has also happened to me if I surf on the unit for a very long time.
If this isnt the right place I apologize. I can't seem to to find a place where I'm allowed to post yet..
Thanks,
JT
Problematic games are a little less problematic
Greetings. Since the introduction of CM9, I've found that many games and applications weren't handling touch events correctly and consequently, caused games - like gta3, shadowgun, and battleheart - to crash, hang, or not display ui elements correctly. This was very depressing indeed and I'd often stare down at my nook tablet regretting my purchase. I honestly felt Gingerbread simply didn't belong on a tablet and the stock BN Rom felt very antiquated for my tastes. I was stuck, or at least I felt that way. CM9 - now I'm using CM10 - was nice, but none of my favorite applications would operate the way you'd expect.
However, thanks to some very diligent gentlemen over in this thread , games and apps that once behaved awkwardly with regards to touch events are now working fine! I somewhat feel inclined to include a "games that are now working" list, but honestly, everything I've thrown at the nook tablet since updating its firmware and patching the fixed kernel driver, has worked wonderfully well. GTA 3, Raymans jungle run, GLWG, Battleheart, deadspace; old or new, many problematic apps are responding to touch events now, and nook tablet owners should really give CM10 a go. I even tried a few lesser known games that would hang due to mishandled touch events and they now work, too. The nook tablet is looking really sexy now, folks :laugh:
tl;dr
mik_os updated our touch panels kernel driver to support a firmware that enables concurrent 5-finger touch. I think he also "sexied" up the touch handling, which resulted in some applications working better - with regards to touch events - than they did before.
Also, once you upgrade your touch panel to this new firmware, there's no going back! You're stuck with CM9/CM10, but I honestly don't think that's a problem

Not correct. You can flash stock firmware for touchscreen, thus revert is possible

MyGica ATV1200, Dual Core Android TV Box - how to?

Just got one to play with. and so far feeling ok with it..
But..
Why would you go and make the "Back, Home, Resent apps" buttons that are core to Android not be there?
Anyway, I got a feeling its only going to be an edit of a system file and we should be able to get them back working..
Its running JB 4.1.2
Anyone got any idea's how I can go about doing this?
As I am using team EOS 4 on the TF101, with thier nice way of having seperate EOS ability to edit the size, postion of these buttons in question..
Is is fesiable for me to grab the EOS apk and move it into this Rom an see if it works?
I am also thinking that something like LMK might be able to work too, but would have to be worked via mouse inputs not touch..
Any pointers in the right direction would be great thanks..
Also, I will use this thread ed as a bit of a collection of handy hints for these box's as I am sure they are going to up there in the development circle once they become a bit more available to the masses..

Anyone who want's to use on screen NavBar buttons, he's lucky! (at least compared to ICS).
Now, by adding in
the line
you get the navigation bar (after reboot) and at the same time Android system recognizes this and adds the three dot menu icon whenever needed*!
If you want to disable the hardware keys, edit the file
These are the three hardware buttons
Add a # before any you don't wan't to use any more. I did for 158 and 139 and left my Home button working.
There is a mod** (flash it in recovery) which makes the bar almost half the size. It's better looking and less space is wasted but it does get some time to get used to it and you might need a couple of tries sometimes when trying to hit those buttons.
*This wasn't the case for ICS.

Haven't had much time to put it through its paces as been travelling for work.
But here are some thoughts on it so far..
I have just upgraded to "update_Mygica_20130314.img"
http://up.stdvr.com/mygica/android/A...a_20130314.img
Like the new bigger pointer for the mouse, also it seems to have brought back the remote controls as I had lost those but I still have to manually turn it off.
I swap out the Chinese launcher with Apex launcher - Apex runs nicely and can back up all the settings and screens so are happy with this.
Speeds and Kernel controls :
As pretty much the same as the M1-M3 box's - until we have developers that are hacking these to suit our needs we are locked in the the Geniatech/MyGicia/Privos setting's - Which I hope in the not to distant future we get some of the phone/Tablet kernel guru's turning up and opening these kernels up for us to adjust the speeds in which these can run.
Using CPU Master I am able to get it to run @ 1540 after boot but the settings don't stick and from the readings I have done this is in the way they have setup the Init.d..
What is Init.d?

How I do it -XBMC-addons
As I seem to be installing multi-able versions of XMBC and or firmware upgrades, I have now got a set pattern in which I can reset most of my fav addons back up.. it maybe a little long winded for some but works for me as I find that I lose addons if I don't keep track of them thus I have them saved to a NAS drive. I access them via this method to re-setup.
1: Load the NAS directory up using CIF manager.
2: In XBMC -Go in to "System-Addons-install from zip
3: Go in to "Root file system" then "mnt" then 'cifs' then a 'XBMC' directory where I keep a backup of all my depositories that I use. ( over the last 12 months I have collected a nice bunch of them from around the traps)
Remotes:
Droidmote : I had it going the first time I set the box up in a hotel room using my Asus portable wifi router and had the accelerometer working nicely on a few games. but since I have been back to my home network I have not been able to get it to work - just tested it with that modem again and its not working, so i would say the uniput needs to be loaded up via a script again. Will play with it when get time.

As I am here in the middle kingdom- I have to have things to entertain the guests so found this bundle - I am not sure how many will work outside of China but some are actually pretty good once you get the hang of how to use them. (no my Chinese is not that great).. a lot will update so this is normal.. just work out which is "yes" and which is "no"
(Will post the link once its loaded to Dropbox)
here's a link to addons for chinese tv within XBMC

ok.. a few problems of it locking up.
Cant pin it down to anyone one thing as yet..
Doesn't seem to get hot so thats not it as I have a USB laptop fan under it, seems to be when I change out to another input on the TV and or I leave it idle for some time, kinda goes in to sleep and not come out it.. got to reboot.
Another thing on the lastest MyGica roms is the lack of Home' 'Back' 'Search' 'Back' 'Recent Task' 'Menu' buttons.
so at the moment I am using this and it does the trick.

New firmware..
http://www.geniatech.com/down-eng/androidtvbox/update_spi_mx_20130326.zip
http://www.geniatech.com/down-eng/androi...130326.zip
Downlload and don't unzip, copy to SD card or USB disk, connect to the box and run upgrade->local update, select the SPI file to update first, after finished, it will restart the box, then, do the same steps to update the firmware, and XBMC is still xbmcapp-armeabi-v7a-debug-20130223.apk.
Above is a new firmware for Geniatech's dual core box, it fixed 4:3/16:9 aspect ratio and android bar problems of XBMC.

Upgraded to this one today.. Working smoothly.
Haven't had time to play with XBMC builds on it but was streaming off PPTV most of the day..
Not sure if it was the box or the network.. Seemed to encounter the ethernet problem after about 2 hours where the stream was caught up.
Switched out to wifi and ran the same stream for a while.. Then switched back to ethernet and no problems.. Maybe a net problem and or that old bug is still hanging round..
Overall zippy as hell but I am also running the Seeder app to keep the Random Entropy up to 4096.
We can clock up to 1512mhz and change out to performance governor but min seems to be locked in at 48mhz which seems a bit low.
But with that being said.. It shows that it actually sits down between 72mhz & 336mhz on low loads.
Navigation buttons are back plus a new screen shot one..
I also noticed in settings there is a new EASYLINK option.. Maybe some like a new remote control app or airplay?
Anyone got info on it?

has anybody used the component out on a mygica atv1200? i swear the blue and green are reversed. i've tried 2 sets of cables. i hooked from mygica to computer and tv. both will not display until i put blue cable in green and green in blue on the mygica box.. and obviously when i do this it messes up the colors. has anyone else noticed this? i tried taking out the hdmi as well and got the same results. i'd love it if someone could confirm i'm either right, or i simply have a bad box. thanks. i've also tried with different firmwares. including the 3/26. i'm now on 1/15.
Did anybody try that DroidMote server. I think I have problem with that uinput. I've downloaded it and made som changes with terminal emulator following instructions, still no moves... Please advice...
make sure it is rooted and goto the system folder and edit build.prop and add a line of code on a new line at the bottom:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
and reboot the device to get those buttons.

Works out of the box for me..
One thing I do is test the network I am on..
i.e test it with my TF-001 to make sure its working, then test it on the ATV1200.
As my other box I had to do some mods on it to get it to work..
but overall works great.. play a few games with it..

Thanks for answer. It works nice on the new firmware!
Another question. I faced to weird shutdowns during normal operation (browsing, video playing). It happens very frequently and I did everything, updated firmware, did several resets - no success. Any suggestions what it might be?
ADD
I found that it was not device issue but my TV set... It works smoothly on my neighbour's TV. If I could only know that they'll be incompatible... TV Firmware update - no success. Buying new TV for my box is ridiculous

How I do it -XBMC-addons
As I seem to be installing multi-able versions of XMBC and or firmware upgrades, I have now got a set pattern in which I can reset most of my fav addons back up.. it maybe a little long winded for some but works for me as I find that I lose addons if I don't keep track of them thus I have them saved to a NAS drive. I access them via this method to re-setup.
1: Load the NAS directory up using CIF manager.
2: In XBMC -Go in to "System-Addons-install from zip
3: Go in to "Root file system" then "mnt" then 'cifs' then a 'XBMC' directory where I keep a backup of all my depositories that I use. ( over the last 12 months I have collected a nice bunch of them from around the traps)

dgcruzing/anyone,
i am trying to use the cifs manager app on my atv1200 but it seems i need a "cifs.ko" file or the app won't work.
Where did you get the cifs.ko file?
any help gratefully received, thanks.

Bear' before I reply I need to check my setup again to see what is what..
Just shifted cities here in China so its been a big few weeks..
I have got the box working into the Synology NAS and it is working without me playing with the CIFs setup.
But I have used the Networking program that came with the firmware and set it to auto mount the video and TV folders on the NAS.
I also need to find some time to setup XBMC again due to this new update.
And also test the new internet connection I have got..

well thanks for this initial reply.
i have not been able to get cifs manager to work at all without a cifs.ko module. i have got an smb share connected in xbmc, but it seems unreliable.
anyone know how to get cifs manager working on this type of box (geniatech/mygica), i think i need to download the cifs.ko mdule but i don't know where to get it.
any new dgcruzing?
how did you get cifs manager working?

i used Mount Manager from the PlayStore and it worked flawlessly
I am getting a Green light on the box and it won't respond anymore. This happens when I leave it sit for a while. Any help? Seems to be some kind of sleep or standby, but it won't wake from it unless I unplug it and then plug it back in.
Try a firmware upgrade..dont know what you are on..but only go to 05 - 4.1.2 dont go to 4.2.2 unless you are prepared for troubles..
We have plenty on it over @ xbmc.org threads

I have bought this box 3 days ago. Now i habe a Problem. When i use the droitmode app and use the multitouch swipe , the indicator stays in the screen. It does not disappear. I am in the latest Firmware. Plus i cant update the busybox. After updating my Firmware is totally screwed.
Are there any custom roms for this box?
Thanks for your help
