Grand Theft Auto: Vice City - HTC EVO 3D

Has anyone got this to work on our phones? I have GTA III on my phone and it works flawlessly, yet on Vice City, whenever I get into a car and drive, the whole game locks up and I have to do a battery pull. It's quite annoying. All I wanna do is play the game.

I think many phones are having this issue. It seems to be a prob with the adreno 220 gpu

Is that why it's not supported for our devices? Is there a way around it or no? I tried installing the lite (lag free) version and it worked for awhile longer then froze again. I really want this on my phone.

I'm about to try the lite version, will report back if it works
Edit.....tried it, played for 5 mins then my phone locked up and rebooted

Same here, only thing is, it didn't even last for 5 minutes... I even enabled my 2nd core, over clocked it to 1556 and over clocked the gpu and same problem. Like I said, gta iii works like a charm but vice city just locks up. I don't know if I'm downloading the wrong data or the wrong apk, it just doesn't work.
If anyone does get this to work let me know, thanks.

GTA 3 works for me too.
Must be a problem with the game not being compatiable

Well I just want it to work. Let me know if someone figures it out.

Same for me, definitely a bug in the game, waiting for an update

It is compatible with HTC Rezound, same hardware but much higher screen resolution. So it should work better on our phones than Rezound as 3D's screen resolution is less.
I also installed GTA VC on Atrix 2 ICS 4.0.4 stock. It froze on it too while entering a vehicle and returned to homescreen even though it is compatible with Atrix 2. On Jellybean,it worked fine but with stuttering sound.

Jumping in to say I'm experiencing the same as the OP. Waiting for an update...

i have the same problem, after 5 minutes my phone is locked and i press vol- + vol+ and power to reboot the phone

i hope that someone figures this out i need this game lol

It isn't compatible with the Evo LTE either, though GTA 3 is and plays perfectly fine. Not a big deal for me, as I bought it for my Asus Infinity (TF700T) and it plays great on it. One of my main reasons for having tablets is for gaming. I'm just surprised that Vice City isn't compatible with more devices since GTA3 is.

It's a shame it doesn't work. I loved gta3!
Hopefully someone will figure it out

It worked on my Evo LTE when I had ICS, since the JB update everytime I get in the car I get stuck, I'm theoretically moving but not physically moving. The game I downloaded was warez since its not compatible with my phone. I'm going to try to download the original 1.0.0 version and not the 1.0.1 and post my results

no longer available for us on the google play store
seems they pulled a gta 3

Must be a problem with the MSM8260 chip!
It's a certainly a hardware issue.
Both Xperia S and EVO 3d have MSM8260;
and the exact same thing happens on xperia s; the game just locks up
Youtube.com/watch?v=AFu_-1DVZ04&feature=youtube_gdata_player
We must email Rockstar games bros!

Are both GTA 3 and VC compatible with our phone on play store? It says not compatible with mine. Our phones are better than Xperia Play and same as HTC rezound (except screen resolution) then why are they not combatible? I guess HTC rezound plays them fine.

Dungeon Defenders not working?

I downloaded Dungeon Defenders today, rebooted my phone, loaded the game, and it crashes every time I try to play it for more than 5 minutes or so. The game runs veryyy smooth thanks to our processors and GPU speed, but it simply crashes for no reason at random times. Anyone else have this problem?
I'm having the same problem, and I really want to play this game lol.
Trendyent recognizes the problem and says they are trying to fix it but I don't see a fix soon =(
yup same problem here, i emailed them about it and they said they are trying to get a couple units from HTC to test on. They had me send a logcat of the crash. so hopefully that will help.
I think that game is made only for Tegra 2 phones
I have the same issue with Dungeon Defenders and lots of other apps. At first I thought it was the phone, so exchanged it. 3rd one is doing the samething.
Dang, at least I'm not the only one having problems. I know it isn't Tegra 2 exclusive because the Desire HD, Droid 2, etc. are supported and same with even the OGVO. It's also a problem with our sister phone, the Sensation. I hope they patch this soon because when it was running on my phone it was siiiilky smooth.

Have you heard the horror stories of how gameloft treats its employees?
Obviously a company like that isn't worried about making a game work on more devices. Its about making new games to sell for higher price.
i dont think it's the game's fault. I think its more likely to be an issue with the phone's rom. whilst the phone has 1gb of ram (dundef only needs 256) the new sense 3.0 uses up wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much memory. I mean. With ALL my apps killed (as many as possible) there is still only about 200-300mb of ram free(this is on a custom rom as well). On stock roms i remeber i only got less than 200mb of free ram and htc has made sure the oom lowkiller will not kill any sense stuff(launcher, lockscreen and so forth).
so maybe the oom lowkiller is killing dungeondefenders.
Woww. I forgot about this game.
I just put it on my SGT and have gotten nothing done in my real life.
THANKS EMPIRE!
I'm trying to think but nothing happens.

That's interesting. Is anyone running CM or any AOSP rom that can try to run the game on the Evo 3D?
I'm trying to find a tutorial I came across on here that tells you how to alter the build prop on your phone so that the market (and apps, I assume?) think your phone is a Tegra device. I can't find it, though. You guys think that would make a difference in this case?
As soon as i click the icon to open it i get an fc and im on synergy rom

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 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.

Games not working

Anyone know why games like EA dead space and mass effect I open, seem to start, and then close? Does the resolution need to be changed?
Also if rooted, removing Swype and installing Swype beta and dragon works great.

I have the same problem with those games too. Modern Combat 3 as well.
I'm assuming its an issue with our screen size being not supported

With modern combat 3, I restored the old one I had for the eVo 3d. Use I think it's the 1.1 apk. The newest version don't work. It's the opposite for gta3, download the newest one.

Glad I'm not the only one. I guess these guys need an update to fix this. GTA3 and Shadowgun work fine, but I was really looking forward to mass effect.

It should be noted that gameloft forces you to buy a new game for a new device they donot support moving games to your new device. Go to www.gameloft.com on your elte and you will see there are only five gameloft games that function with it and you likely need that specific apk

That is super dumb. Gameloft is pretty much forcing customers to pirate their new games, I mean, who is going to pay for the same game twice just because they upgraded phones? Not me.
I contacted gameloft and they sent me the games I purchased (that are currently compatible) from my 3d.
Unfortunately the two I have (nova 2 and mc3) are having issues downloading additional data but atleast I don't get an incompatibility message anymore, lol.

Ea support didn't help either. They just gave me an Nption that doesn't exist in ICS.

Theres a reason they pulled it from Google Play, hopefully when they relist the issue is fixed. I checked the log with alogcat and it was a graphics issue at a point where it loads Qualcomm specific stuff. But its not an issue just with the Touchpad, the same crash is shown on the Xperia S, a supported device with the same Adreno GPU as the Touchpad.

Possibly just a Snapdragon S3 bug then, if your device is the newer Evo 4G LTE which has an S4. There are videos of it working fine on S2 devices with ICS ROMs. (Xperia Play, HTC Desire S)
Just found a video of it crashing on the older S3 Evo 3D. I'm going to have to call this one an S3 bug since 3 different devices all have it and they all share S3/Adreno 220

same problem with the updated play store version. (1.01). crashes and restarts the touchpad whenever I start driving a car. on the newest cm10.
same problem when I was on the newest cm9 fat n creamy.
works fine on my nexus 4.
It appears the S3 bug still exists. From Google Play, some versions of the Galaxy Note have an S3 and there are multiple reviews like this. About all we can do is submit a request on the page in that review reply. Besides that Rockstar's reply is pretty useless, it wouldn't take them long to figure out this bug exists on all S3/Adreno 220 devices and it needs to be fixed by them. But since the Touchpad isn't supported, use a different S3 device like the Sony Xperia S which has an OEM ICS update and is a supported device.

the same here, amaze 4g snapdragon S3 / Adreno220 , the game crash when i drive a car/motorcycle u.u
Hoping you guys could give me some pointers to even figure out how to get the game to show available in the store, or to get the apk file to load. Found the APK and have the related data files to go with. When installed in the android/obb file folder, the game sits at the "black install" screen and goes noplace.
Tried changing the build.prop to different models and then accessing the Google store for purchase, but nothing I did worked. So either I was doing it wrong, or was missing something that needed to be changed.
Running CM9, but not entirely sure on the build number, as it's my brothers touch pad.
The game works awesome on my Asus TF300T.
Small up... I am very sad because I did not see this thread before so I was spamming Rockstar so they add touchpad on their compatibility list (I thought it was forgeted)
And in parrallele I tried to install it manually... and baaammm TP reboots after introduction video when I start to play... after reboot I try again and second hard reboot... then I find this thead ^^
So I hope Rockstar fix it soon (I am not sure they will).
In the mean time can you tell the settings you tried to get the game pretiest as possible but not laggy on our brave TP ?
I tried full distance with full resuloution and dynamics lights on. It's pretty but laggy so I don't know where to put the cursor to get the best experience ?

Looks like the game got an update recently to fix crashes on the Galaxy S2, which I think has the same processor as the touchpad. Possibly working now???
I just checked on play store... Version is still 1.03 from 18/12... So no change won't work for now
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
No go
Okay, so I did some testing.
Works fine on all play store versions (1.01, 1.02, 1.03) except for the vehicle bug, which causes the Touchpad to lock up and reboot.
I can get into a vehicle sometimes, but 9/10 times it locks up.
The 1.03 version has NOT fixed this bug for us
Keep pushing Rockstar for a fix!
