[Q] Missing license on a game with SlimKat build 6 - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

**** I should have read the comments for the game. If you ever re-install this game you lose your license. So I guessa warning DO NOT BUY THIS GAME until it is fixed.****
Also not sure how to delete a thread.

Do not buy which game?

Oops sorry that would be important. House of the Dead: Overkill.
Looks like it was taken off Google Play but Sega's site still links to it.

[Q] Homerun Battle 3D - installed update, knows my phone is rooted

I just downloaded todays update. When I opened the app, I got a message that my phone is rooted (which it is) and to return to original firmware. Then the game shuts down and you can't play it. Is this going to start happening with all market apps??
Anyway to still play the game with the update and stay rooted??
Best thing to do would be to leave a 1 star rating for game with your comment. if the devs get enough they should stop caring if its rooted.
1 Star Review!!
Just did it, and there many others doing the same thing!!
Good call! Hopefully it will get the developers to do something about it!!
as much as I agree that its annoying, I understand where the dev is coming from. If you want to prevent your users from cheating, thats probably the easiest way to do it.
Cheating?
How does having a rooted phone enable any form of cheating?
The game plays the same as when the phone wasn't rooted??
It's not just annoying, it's also probably not legal. When i bought the game this was not a condition of purchase, what they did was change the rules months after they had no problem selling it to me. It would be a different story if that was a condition from title launch but you can't sell me the game and in-app items and then purposely disable it... Am I wrong??
At the very least they should refund us for the ole' switcheroo!
This is the reward I get for choosing not to pirate anything Android...they sure aren't making a strong case against it pulling horsecrap like this! Why do i have a feeling cracked copies won't have this issue (you know, the ones the cheaters will use anyway)...

if I'm not mistaken, in order to cheat (in almost any game), you'll need to modify files that are not accessible to the user unless they're rooted. I may be wrong, though.

But here's the problem: I'm rooted but haven't modified anything relating to the game. I paid for the game, never cheated, and now I can't play it. That's not logical rationale by any stretch...
They suggest that I unroot just to play a game. So I'd lose backup and cache cleaning and CM7 for one game to work. How is that reasonable??
I guess cheating in a GAME (may I just state again that this is all over a game) is more important than a functional device.
If they told me this before I bought it then I just wouldn't have bothered, nor would most Android users... Where iphone users barely know how to change their ringtones, we root and Rom, they should understand that or not bother...
I am really surprised non of the major Android blog sites have picked up on this...
I think it's poop, I agree with the notion of 1 star to the developer!
This is the email I just got back from the Dev:
Thank you for your inquiry.
Please expect the next update very soon. Previously blocked users will be able to access the game again.
We are sorry for this inconvenience.
However, please keep in mind, if you do have a rooted phone and have problems in the game with the future, it is recommended to turn your phone back to a stable OS environment.
Thank you for your patience.

How to update games installed by rooting?

As title, I've downloaded have some games that's installed through rooting but I cannot go to the market and update cause it says I didn't buy the game.
Anyone knows how to update it?
Besides from finding the newer version through the net.. which I cannot find.
One method is to buy the game and support the devs. I understand not wanting to spend money on a game you might not like, but if you try the demo or pirate it and find that you like it you should purchase it or wait for it to become free on Amazon or getjar. You will not find help regarding illegal downloads in this forum.
Closed, Asking for Warez is strictly against the rules.

[Q] How do I update GameStop's preloaded games?

So I've had my Prime for a while now. Got it from GameStop, and of course it game pre-loaded with some games. However, it is obvious GameStop sideloaded those games because although the Google Market, sorry, I mean the Google Play Store will tell me some of the games need updates, it won't let me install such updates. The error is typically that when trying to update they realized I didn't own those games.
I had emailed GameStop about this some time back. Their response was simply that nothing could be done.
I tried emailing one of the developers, for Shadowgun, and to date they haven't bothered to respond to me.
This is irritating to me. My games are stuck in time because GameStop won't provide updates, and the Market/Play Store won't let me update cause it thinks they aren't valid copies. Is there ANYTHING I can do here to get these apps updated legally?
Thanks,
K.
Hm, doesn't sound very good bro, if GameStop themselves refuse to do something against it, I don't think anyone else will care. Sorry to say that, but I think there's not a big chance for you to get your updates.
However, there are still two steps I would think of:
1. Have you written to Google and described your problem to them already?
2. If you really are keen on those updates, you could look for a guide to remove those games, uninstall the Play Store updates and buy them a second time (as they are marked as "Paid" up to now, aren't they?). As I said, I don't think that's an option for ya, but, who knows...?
Yeah, trying not to have to repurchase...but I figured that is the only way I can do this...hence why I posted. Was hoping there might be a way.
I suppose emailing Google might be worth a shot, but my gut tells me they'll just say its up to GameStop since they put the games on the tablet. AKA: you installed from outside our market, not our problem. I could be wrong though.

Can anyone make Banana Kong for andriod?

Can any developer make a Banana Kong port for andriod. I played it on iphone and got hooked, its absolutly the best runner next to punch quest. The problem is Iam way to busy to even attempt to make a port, but Iam pretty sure whoever does can make at least good AD money. I can help with art work as I have found some of the images myself.
I made a retro version game of banana kong , its like an atari game but with banana kong graphics. Basically you are standing in the middle of the screen and jumping over barrels by tapping the screen, if you get hit by barrel your score goes down by 50 points.Its just a fan app, it has nothing to do with the actual game.
Iam wondering if we cant get someone to port the game to android, does anyone know if the developer of the game come to this forum?
Moderator moved it to this section because he said I have more chance at getting help. I have the graphics, is there someone who can make the game?
i think that there was this game for android in play store but now its not in there. ive searched everywhere but the links send me to play store in which i cant find it.
if someone can do it i want also the game Slam Dunk King for android.

[Q] Is my game so crappy in WP8 standards?

Hello everybody,
Two days ago I have published a FREE game on windows phone store. Here is the link:
www(dothere)windowsphone.com/en-US/store/app/brave-furries/99d039e7-60f3-43ea-b666-7442e78ab24d
Anyway the game is a port from Android and iOS. I thought I will try WP8 this time as well (I have no experiance with this platform). After two days in the store I have NO reviews and the game is not even in new + rising section. MSFT says that download data will be available after 10 days (for new apps) but I already can tell that they will be horrible.
On iOS I had few hundred downloads on the first day and the app is PAID on iOS so I assumed it would be much better on WP8 where it is FREE. Maybe someone could check the app and let me know if I made any mistakes when publishing or the game is just crappy ?
Thanks for any feedback!
An interesting game, however, I think the main problem for not having reviews is that it is for polish market, although can be downloaded. Try advertising it a bit more

Thanks for your feedback. I am in Poland but do you say that it is not downloadable in other countries or is it "rather for polish customers"?
Also I have noticed that I included polish version link above. Sorry for this (changed to english).
It is downloadable, but I have found it just when searching specifically for it, when I saw everything on the link u left here. So if I do not know about the game or some app I cannot download it, because it won't be shown to me. That is the reason for which u have to advertise it more. Also, I am getting rather annoyed by the multiple "animations" between the levels... Would be also great to make it universal - for tablets and desktops... I don't like playing on my phone, but am enjoying it on my tablet.
Its quite an interesting game buddy
game looks nice
Thank you for the nice words and feedback. I will definately think of making the app universal if by any chance it will generate enough money for me to buy a tablet for testing
Did anyone try to buy the WIndows Phone advertising that can be purcheased on Dev Center page? What is the average user acquisition cost with this option ?
Btw. The game got featured in Germany today. If anyone would be intersted how many downloads it generated than please ask me in 4 days (SLA time).
