CM7 RC1 and compatibility issues - Motorola Droid X2

While I was on CM7 RC1, I was running into the issue of some applications not being compatible with my X2. It mostly involved apps that I had already installed but did include most I didn't. Instagram, Facebook, Words with Friends, and Tumblr app were like this also any of the Zynga "With Friends" apps. The apps had no issues when running it theywere already installed.
I went back to my 2.3.4 default nandroid and the issue is gone.
The problem existed through the Play Store on the website as well and changed when I switched to the default.
Any ideas?

Did you change your screen density at all when on CM7? That is the only time I have ever experienced that issue...or seen it happen for that matter
Now that I read further I see you did play with the screen density and that would be the iaaue

It would help a lot if we knew some specifics about your phone. i.e. what ROM you are running, have the apps worked in the past, are you getting the apps from the market or just pushing a .apk, what other apps will not install?
Oh of course sorry and I am running the latest vanilla tazz and another app that wont install is cut rope and many others that I can't recall. I have never had this problem installing any apps until recently. I even tried switching roms: ( and these apps r all straight from the market

[Q] Worms anybody?

The game by EA/Team17 works on my Nexus S and Sony Arc but not on my Motorola Atrix (rooted or unrooted). I got the "Unsupport Device" error message. Anybody has the same problem or a solution?

Worked on Nexus S...........Worked on Sony Arc.............You say not anymore on Atrix............did it work before on Atrix? If not, I suspect that's because "unsupported device"!
Worms hasnt worked on the Atrix since day one. After downloading from the market you are propted to download the additional data. This is where the "unsupported device" message pops up. Same thing with Sims3 and I imagine the rest of EAs games too. I sent THREE emails to EA about this and they will not respond. So i tried to get it working myself.. I copied the data (on my Captivate) from /sdcard/Android/data/com.eaworms...... There are actually two folders there. I zipped them, dropboxed them to Atrix, unzipped and pasted to the /sdcard/Android/data. Launched Worms and I still get prompted to download, followed by the error.
Good thinking, pity it didn't worked!!! I also sent an error report to EA with no respond yet! I wonder what this "unsupported device" is and what it actually means!? I paid for my Worms at Market and it does not work on my Atrix before rooted or after rooted!

Yes please explain. Everything I read about Chainfire has to do with graphics...
You need chainfire pro and then install the qualcomm/powervr plugin. Then use that plugin as you default so basically what happens is that sims/worms etc will think you have a qualcomm/powervr chipset and hence you stop getting the device not supported.
Works the other way too. Non tegra 2 devices can play early (current) tegra 2 games

Thank you! Will try this tomorrow. Quick question.. Im guessing this graphics emulation is something Id only want to use for these specific apps (worms/sims) and then switch it back..?
Yep. On chainfire 3d pro you can change the settings under "per app settings" or something like that which allows you to choose certain setting for certain apps

Chainfire3D does not work for Worms! I bought the Pro version. I tried both the Qualcomm and the Powervr plugins. I tried almost every combination of different settings. I tried both the default opengl settings and the per app opengl setting. Still fails on install with the same message.
Did you reboot?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I did reboot, several times. And tried all again with more reboots just now. Can anybody actually confirm Worms working on the Atrix w Chainfire3D? If so, what are your settings? From my experience CF3D does NOT correct the compatability error when trying to download the additional data. The only other variable would be the game data I mentioned earlier.
Hmm. Interestjng. Are you rooted btw?

Afaik right now CF3D is a good attempt but will NOT resolve the incompatibility problem that exists for Worms on the Atrix. It seems the issue is NOT a graphics incompatibility issue but a different issue all together.
Thanks everyone for your comments and feedback.
The more I think about this the more I believe it is the Atrix 's qHD 960x540 display. Worms just was not written for this resolution. Just need EA to confirm this.

Please share what they say. i just ran CF3D again because there were updated drivers available. Still nothing.
I just don't know. It works perfectly well on my ex Nexus S, my ex Sony Arc, my HTC HD2, and even my daughter's HTC Wildfire, but just not the Atrix!!!! :-(

Not the screen resolution...its the tegra chip...ea is a bunch of tools and they are slow as hell when updating android but when it comes to ios they jump right on it...then wait 2+ weeks for submission into the app store...we could have the updates right away but they don't care about servicing to the hardcore gamers with the tegra 2 :-(

Get your concrete donkey ready! Worms has been updated in the market and now works on Atirix!! byah!

Market doesn't always show updates.

Wondering how I can fix market not showing app updates? Google+ was updated today and it didn't show up. I searched for it and an update was available. Usually, I clear data and then go to myapps to find updates but today it didn't show Google+ what gives? TIA

What CM version are you on? And what is your dpi?

CM7 Nightly 10/27/2011 DPI is set by it, I think 161.
161 is no good - 160 is now the default for market compatibility.
Rodney
You need to update to 7.1 stable or change your dpi.

Sent from my LG Optimus V using Tapatalk
But 10/27/2011 should already been set to 160 dpi, I think.

I think the change was made at nightly 200 or 201. I'm not sure about the date.

Nightly 200 09/23/11 made the change to qemu.sf.lcd_density=160
What market version? The new market has the ability to auto update all, I have seen the same behavior where an app wouldn't show in the "update available" under my apps but it would show "update" in the market pages. On another note has anyone else tried the Set DNS app, makes the loading time of market crazy fast.

I have one of the later nightlies after 7.1 so it is set at 160. Sorry. I installed the latest market. Part of my update issues are that, I had to switch accounts as two are loaded on my nook. Will see if I have issues with the newest market.

I have had this same problem with my Atrix when it ran stock. I'm pretty sure it is a market issue.

Noob alert. I have cm7.1.0, so that's good. For future reference how do I change dpi?

This is a well known issue from what I've been able to research since it started happening to me. Google knows about it, and apparently its' rectification is under works. For some people it's just an issue of the Market not using the right Google account, so you can try changing that in settings.
I found a solution for my specific case that you may find does the trick for you. This may not be the most ideal solution if you have used your primary Market account to purchase lots of apps. I however don't, and used another of my Google accounts as my Market account. I had to reinstall/update apps already on my phone for them to appear in My Apps, but any new apps installed show as they are supposed to.
Hope it helps.

[Q] CM 7.2 apps not compatible.

Hey im running CM7.2 and a lot of apps that were compatible before with stock are not now. I was wondering if any one else has these problems and if there is a fix.

Can you be specific? Which apps?
I tried to download word with friends. And it said it was incompatible. And pretty much all the wallpaper apps were incompatible. Such as picspeed wallpapers HD. I may be mistaken and maybe these apps are really just not compatible with the photon. But I remember playing words about a month ago when I was on stock.
Wwf works...using it now...

Hmm.. mind trying picspeed HD wallpapers?
Works....did u flash gapps after flashing the rom?

Sure did. Should I reflash gapps?
Couldn't hurt...wipe cache and dalvik then reflash

So i have been having a similar problem. I tried installing tiny tower, discover card, capital one bank, and citi credit card apps and all of them said "your device is incompatible with this version" on the google play store. I tried to use the apk to install tiny tower manually and it came back saying "application not installed" I also tried reflashing gapps as was suggested above and that didn't seem to change anything.
These apps all worked fine on the stock sense OS but they don't work on cm7.2
I've heard that there are patches for CM7.2 RC1, is that true, does anyone know where i could get them so i could flash them?
The same issue
Hi,
I have Samsung Galaxy 3 and since I flashed the CM 7.2. RC3 I wasn't able to install many application. Do anyone has the solution?
Thanks...
From my experience the apps not compatible is due to changing settings of your screen density
. Stock is 240. Have you changed it? Rom toolbox? Modify build.prop? Or even in the cm7 settings?
