how do you install this im tryin to install COD: Black Ops but most web sites say you need to install chainfire3d and chainfire3d pro(want let you install both at same time also)
If you download it from blackmart or pirate it it will not work.
Root the tablet
Buy chainfire from the play marketplace
Install
Configure for whichever game you are using
Best purchase i ever made. Works wonderfully on the prime.
i have it installed. I can play the game. BUT the graphics are messed up. I can see through the walls. So it's kind of glitchy. It's either I have the Xperia Play version or I have my chainfire pro settings incorrect..........Any idea?
Try messing with the settings. Cant say it enough, if you dont have the legit version this wont work. Go to the per app settings, make sure you have the driver for the right version installed and applied to the game which it sounds like you did. Next try things like unroll textures or whatever. Basically, just play with the settings something is bound to make it go a little better.
Sometimes theres nothing more that can be done, sucks but Gameloft games often do that. Look into the different versions, maybe you can acquire a version for a tegra2 device that might work better... experia versions in my experience rarely work well on other devices. Also try versions for devices that have ICS.
Happy hunting!
I happily bought this back when I had an HTC Hero, then a Desire, but I've noticed Chainfire3D (Pro) doesn't work nicely on neither my Galaxy S Showcase nor my TF201. I haven't talked to the dev. yet, but it's on my todo.

Does anyone have issues with quite a few apps on the market not available to install on i5500? Some of the apps I've tried to download from market seem like they would be available for this device, example searching for yahtzee games, about 1/3 are not able to install. I thought maybe it was a screen size issue or similar. Recently I wanted to install Auto Memory Manager and it's ghosted out in the available devices menu. I left a note on the devs blog and he stated that there is no restrictions, yet I can't install it. Is this an issue with the Market, i5500 or the devs?
yeah i have the same,
its for like the half of the apps wich i want i cant install...
thats also why i use Applanet, because than i sill can install them
Ok I downloaded that app, but I can't seem to search. Or both apps I'm looking for aren't on there.
Well the dev for AMM asked what version of android I'm running, so apparently there is some sort of restriction or he wouldn't have asked. I'm suspecting devs mark apps for US phones and the i5500 probably isn't labled as one. Any devs know how the app restrictions work?
This is due to the Galaxy 5 having a small screen resolution so only a few apps show up....for the HTC Vogue it was fixed so i guess that it can be fixed somehow....
I already posted this question on MAD Team forums but no one replied : http://www.madteam.co/forum/index.php?/topic/511-full-android-market/
Ther than that it could also be due to the region of your Market....to fix this just use Market Enabler to fake your region
Did you try "market enabler" from the market? I dont know if its the screen size but it brings more selections of apps onto my X10. Just a thought.....

I installed this app onto my friends 2.2 ROM on his galaxy 5. I believe it was also possible on 2.1. He is using a north american ROM. Try the app I posted above me and see if it works.

I tried downloading market enabler, but I get the message that it's not available for my device as well. So it appears another one of my issues is not having a carrier and using my i5500 as a pmp/pda with only wifi.
Any update on this problem?
Android Market is running a great sale (lots of popular apps for $0.10) and I can't buy almost any of them.. Specifically - Paper Camera, SketchBook, Great Little War Game, MineCraft etc.
These apps are not searchable and when I'm trying to buy from web page, I get error "Item not compatible with your device".
I live in Australia, until today was using I5500LUYJP2 firmware. Today I also tried a bunch of other firmwares for Asia, Europe, Telstra Australia, also tried "Market Enabler", but nothing helped.
So is it something wrong with my phone or just all these apps require higher screen resolution?
I say the screen size. Some may need multitouch but the main reason is because developers don't bother with our phone, because its not very new or popular.
I tried them games too, kinda bummed as its only for a while and I'm getting my x play for xmas. Ah well

Screen size, multitouch, lack of hardware resources(we have an anemic RAM), or sometimes just 'cuz they didnt test it with our phones yet. Most apps not available on the market still so work with our phones, just download the .apk files (search for them on google), push them to your SD card, and select them from your file manager. (you need to enable "Unknown Sources" in Setting->Applications). Even though this may work for most apps, some are still not compatible, so even the apk files wont work either.
Hey guys, is there a way to make Gameloft games, like NOVA 2 and Asphalt 6 work on GS2? I'm just first turned on my new phone, entered the market thinking that I would play high end games I couldn't in my Xperia x10, and I discover that Gameloft games aren't there
You can try using Stock Build.prop to maximise market content.. If there's still stuff missing Market Enabler (free in app store) will let you change country/carrier. If it's Tegra2 games you're after Chainfire3d can duplicate that.

But will this allow me to get games? Does it bypass the market restriction? I ask this because I'm not in favor of pirating games...
Can you teach me how to do those things?
Download Chainfire3d from the market, the search for Nvidia drivers for Chainfire on google, copy them to your phone. install, select the Tegra driver (easy enough to find instructions on Google), then search nova 2 on marketplace, if it allows you to buy and install then you're all good.
Asphalt 6 and nova2 work without the need for chainfire.. you just need to dl them from gamelofts own store.. just google gameloft and you should find them.

Use samsung games hub or gamesloft websight as said above.
Can't it be the market version? You know, I love the easy updates, etc...
I got nova 2 hd from the market, no problems. I am in the uk though, so you may have to use market enabler if it's not showing up.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
don't worry about the updates. all gameloft hd games have builtin in-app update functions and regularly check for newer versions.
Issues I have with Gameloft games is.
this is the biggest, load times especially if you pause them and go to homescreen to check a text message or something, then immediately hold down the middle button to return to the game, they take forever to start up again, upto a minute, why on earth is this, on my old Iphone they would resume instantly. This phone is miles better spec inst it?
Also hardly any of them use the gyroscope and when they do its just not smooth enough compared yet again to a year old clunky fruity machine
just don't understand why
Yes, with the demo version I got, NOVA 2 takes a very long time to load...
Trying to set up the Chainfire3d thing to download the games through the market. I preffer it that way... having all apps on one place feels better.

Even after I put the market to the UK Version, installed Chainfire 3D and enabled nVidia Plugin I can't find the app on my phone and neither am I allowed to buy it from the desktops's browser ¬¬
But isn't it just a demo?

Asphalt 6 is free via the "Samsung Apps" on your phone. I had tried versions via the market and they stuttered. The one via the Samsung Apps is not only free (always liked that price) but more importantly runs sweetly.

Can´t see any games for SGS2 on S-Apps, maybe there is a country lock?

There is no where on it that says it is a demo.
To be honest, I am not very good at this type of game and got it for my son to play with. I downloaded it to compare it to the market version.
Ok, So as many people have noticed, it's possible to install chainfire if you are running cm7. (Stock nook rom bootloops when you try to install, so if you don't know what "cm7" is, or "stock nook rom" don't even think about installing chainfire 3d unless you are a masochist.)
This thread is dedicated to what games you have been able to run on the NT with chainfire installed, and a quick mention of what settings you used to get it to work.
I've so far only downloaded and installed TegraZone, and got it to forward me to the market download pages. (not yet had the time to download anything) Though I am looking forward to playing around with it.
I will be compiling a list of games and what settings were successful here as people list them.
Soulcraft THD runs with reduce texture quality and the nvidia plugin. It lags when some spawns load, but this doesn't seem to prevent playing.
Street Fighter IV runs with Qualcomm plugin.
Ive got Chainfire3D set up but how exactly (and where exactly) does one obtain the nvidia drivers?

Nevermind i found em and installed but afterwards i still cant run any of the games. I chose the nvdia driver under opengl and clicked fix market but still says its uncompatible with device. Itll load the market page from the tegra app but then it says its uncompatable

After I installed the chainfire plugins I cleared the data on the market app and rebooted. I used fix market of course and the market no longer shows me the incompatible with this app message.
Trying to get princess punt thd working but so far no luck at all. Thinking I'll be skipping it and moving to the next game

Did it, still didnt work. Sill not compatable

Hmm, Other things I have setup in my settings might make a difference. In the chainfire menu, I've got the nvidia driver setup under default for all apps, and setup as well under per app for the tegra app store. Try making those changes, clear your market data again and reboot (and refix the market)

Hmm. When I first installed the tegra app, I couldn't install from the market. (was trying to install soulcraft) I searched a bit, and found an apk online to download. it installed easy enough via es file explorer, but wouldn't run. I uninstalled the chainfire driver, and reinstalled it with the box checked for the beta egl driver. I then set the nvidia plugin under defaults with chainfire and cleared the market data. (I think this is also where I fixed permissions with rom manager for good measure). after rebooting and setting up chainfire for tegra app to use the nvidia plugin (and only nvidia plugin) for good measure, I also clicked on fix market again for good measure, I tried soulcraft and it still wouldn't run. I went into the tegra app and looked up soulfire. It went to the market download page and the update button was available. I clicked update. the app redownloaded and updated. Now it loads, and I notice that all the thd apps are showing me a download option in the market now.
Somewhere in all this the market started working with the tegra apps. Searches now will show up THD apps and downloads work fine too. I can't think of any other actions i took in trying to get them to load. Perhaps it was the fix permissions that tweaked things. not certain if it was the using the market to update soulfire but I don't see how that could be. I just assumed it was the clearing market data that did it. It might also be the beta egl driver that did it.
Lol ill try that soon when i have the time. Yu really want these tegra games dont you? And are they actually running smooth on the tab?

I've noticed a lot of games seem to come out first for the tegra based devices take soulcraft for instance. I read somewhere it's coming out for all devices soon, but the first release was tegra. When it comes to gaming, I'd rather not wait for several months to play a game if I don't have to.
As for running smooth, so far yes and no. I'm finding that soulcraft plays quite smoothly for the most part. However there are points where it freezes up for like 20 seconds while new creatures are loading. this hasn't negatively impacted gameplay but it's annoying. Otherwise it's played as smoothly as if it was meant for the NT. Still havn't been able to tweak princess punt to work, so I will move onto the next game I see later on tonight.
Ok, After tinkering with reinstalling chainfire after various rom flashes I think the key to get the market to show the tegra apps is simply to first wipe the market data. Second use the "fix market" button in chainfire.
If anyone cares Street Fighter IV runs with the help of Chainfire 3D and the Qualicomm (sp?) driver. Had to mess around a bit and watch a youtube video, it runs well but compared to other games the graphics are just ok and it can be a little choppy.
Hi,
i have a Genesis GT1220 10" tablet, it's a great tablet.
i install chainfire 3d 3.3 PRO, works fine, after reload dont apears icon, i re-install and apears now.
i installed all plugins, and mark Fix Market.
and selected Nvidia (for THD Games, like Gangstar Rio). as the Tutorial show.
the option save with selected fine, but i go open the game says "your device is not compatible with this game"
any idea?
PS: i alread make a Hard Reset.
I have the same problem with Galaxy Nexus. I am sure it worked, but now even it finds game on google play, it writes it is incompatible. Of course I installed plugin and made market fix.

Hello,
I use a Xperia Z2 with CM12 and I would like to play Modern Combat 2 on it,
but it says incompatible device.
I already tried changing some things in build.prop, cannot post a Link to it, cause im new, just Google for 'Run Modern Combat 2 on any modern Android device' and it should be the first one on sdx-Forum
and used the search, but I couldnt find anthing useful.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
(Please move the thread if i'm wrong here, im new )
Thx, Cynox
You can try downloading to a compatible device and copying the files across to your Z2
So there are 2 problems with this solution:
1. I dont have any other device.
2. I bought the game a few years ago in the Store, but this is not recognized any more, so I got it from the Internet, because 6€ for a 5 year old game is pretty much.
Not sure for now then.
Perhaps borrow a freinds phone and add your account tempoarily though you need root access to be able to get the apk from /data/app
Copying the obb doesnt from /sdcard/
The game is reading the build.prop from the phone you want to play, so I dont think that download on a compatible
phone and then copy over will work...

Not sure then
Thats what i use to do for a long time, download older nvidia games then copy them and play them using chipset emulation on my phone
And even games from newer more powerful devices on my old phone
The game its self should run if playstore permits it unless it uses something from older devices that our new ones dont or do have
E.g selinux policy
Ok, thanks I will try that, but a few minutes ago,
Z2 was loading, I wanted to use it, nothing happend,
I forced restart, nothing happend, now its turned off but I cant do anything
Have to fix that first. I have no idea what happend. CM12 was working very well.
