Did some searching didn't really find a definitive fix/answer. Is there any way to get play store movies to stream on rooted devices? That is a major downside to rooting for me right now.

No answer for you... but thank you for bringing it up.... Good to know.
I can stream them on my n7 no problems.
Worst case if play store requests root deny it and the man will never know. ( that's my understanding)

Hmm I had issues back in June and google issued a refund stating that play back on rooted devices was blocked. Just Googled it again and now this article says it should work I will give it a try tom and report back http://www.droid-life.com/2012/07/1...es-does-allow-for-rooted-device-playback-now/

I'm rooted, s-on with the latest update and have no issues streaming or playing a movie from the play store. And that's with both bought movies/tv and rented movies/tv

Google no longer blocks rooted devices, I remember someone stating the block was primarily due to security issues with froyo and gingerbread and has since been fixed

I just bought it 20 minutes ago and it runs smooth on my 3d (for those wondering if it works good or not). There's just a bit of lag when you drive but nothing too game breaking.

Try buying it on a different phone. I use my brother's LG G2x to buy games, since seem to work, then I just back it up using Titanium Back up and use that same back up to get the game on my phone. I also do this with gameloft games since they sometimes don't show up on my Evo market.
I am playing it as we speak, it is EXACTLY like GTA III on PS2 and I have been addicted since 3:30 this afternoon, haven't even eaten I'm so hooked. But it works fine on my 3VO, haven't had any issues whatsoever!
I have been having issues all day with this game. Earlier it let me buy the game and I couldn't download the extra data needed to play, so I uninstalled. Then when I get back home and try to download I can't find it on the market. I followed ur link and it bought me back to gta, but my device is not compatible. Any ideas?

I have couple idea's if your rooted. First change your build.prop in /system/ to trick it into thinking you have a different device. Follow link for information http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20185036 ) second try market enabler.

I bought the game. Didn't google the apk and data like you guys did. I want the updates pushed to me when they're released.
Game runs fine, wish it ran better. If only there were certain settings to use with Chainfire since usually it crashes with GTA3.
downloading sd data now! I'm stoked!
I can't get it to work, how are people buying this game?

What ROM are you on? I tried it on both MIUI with less than stellar results (choppy framerate) and on VirusROM which is performing great ATM.

I installed it yesterday, It's running nicely. Stock ROM rooted GSM. It's one of the games I'm actually enjoying and have a problem putting down.
Mine works on CM7 alpha. But no sound.

Yeah they took it off the market for some devices. But dont know why. You can look for it using google for the market link and says its not supported...
Anyways i had to redownload data. Now it works...

I guess i am going to wait awhile until they figure out what's going on. It seems to be a high % of people having issues right now. At least high enough for me to say that's too many haha.
Works great on fresh rim
Tonight I Experienced a small glitch where I couldn't exit the game through the menus. I had to press the home button, open to task manager and kill it. Luckily I had saved just prior.
Ok, so I dl'ed from the game "other means" cause I wanted to play it lol. I can't wait for this to officially be supported for us so i can buy and have support and updates.
And please don't pm me to send you the apk, ill ignore it. Just posting another confirmation this game works great.

Agree 100%, will be buying this when it's official for the 3D. Duke nukem on the other hand..hahahaha not even worth the download IMO.
My evo 3D just updated the market to the new play store. Anybody else have it yet?

Yep.
I did.

Nothing just a different icon.

Most the difference lies in the Web based version
Now all of googles market services (apps,books,music,and movies) are all under one domain play.google.com
Plus all kinds of new sweet Android Market (errm I mean "Play Store") Deals for the new name
Mine just updated..what a dumb name and ugly icon..

Is there a way to force the update?
There is an apk in the Theme/App section. I used it earlier for my tablet, my phone auto updated to it. Bill to account still worked fine for me, some were saying it no longer worked for them.

Its a nice name for an adult toy store, maybe that will be in the next update.

This is just the start of the changes. A lot of it is how it will handle how things work. Books will hold your place no matter the device... Songs bought on your phone will automatically be on your tablet.... Playing a game on your phone? Pick up where you left off in your tablet....
I am on EVO 3D GSM and still with old market. What does decide when will update appear on my phone regulary not to force it?
tells me my device is not compatible.. :/
Doesn't seem to be available in the market, so it's Prolly not compatible for this resolution. Or some other stupid reason. Looks good tho. Searched for it myself last night

I had let's golf 3 and madden 2012 say the same thing. I was assuming they were not optimized for ICS.
Goodness, Jellybean is coming out this month and ICS isn't even getting optimization yet for new games?

I downloaded max Payne from a 3rd party website and the game worked fine and that isn't available on the market. One of the comments for the spider man game were from the one x.
If you find the play store link on your browser and then open it with play store, you'll see it on your phone but isn't downloadable

Will rooting break my ability to rent or play movies from the Google Play store. Also, will it break Google Wallet?
Thanks for any info you can provide.

The reason I ask is that when I rooted my Epic 4g the Play store would not let me rent movies because it detected my phone was rooted.
If that is not the case anymore, awesome.
Actually if your rooted,you can't use HTC watch from the last time I tried,rooting will give you complete access to the system,but that doesn't mean that your HTC/google services can't tell without a modified version that doesn't look for root.
also you can't use google play videos,however I have found a missed google video app somewhere on this forum before that is hacked to work with rooted devices. But I'm pretty sure HTC watch is done with when your rooted. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, I would like to know also
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Know HTC watch is done with since no one really cares to mod it. Use up your free rentals if u have em before u root. What I did anyways.
And y even bother paying google for their overpriced movies? Half the time it stops playing right in the middle or doesn't work at all. Then takes 3 months to get a refund after complaining everyday for that 3 month period.
Netflix or torrents are so much better, and cheaper.
Never used HTC watch so I don't care about that. What about Google wallet, will it still work?

Yes google wallet will still work,I have used it twice after rooting s off
