emulate old Samsung S3 apps in windows? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a old game on a samsung S3 that I would like to play, but seems after updating the android version is to old and the game crashes at end of loading, problem is I need to fill in a password in the game for me to transfer the game to another phone, is there a way to copy the game over as full to another phone and/or copy the whole phone and emultate it in windows so I can just start the game and change the password so I can transfer the account to another phone?
thanks

Media Foundation Protected Pipeline (mfpmp.exe) Error

Hey guys,
Never had a problem until 3 days ago. I connected my Galaxy S3 to my PC and tried to copy files on to my SD card. My whole computer started lagging and I had 2 processes named mfpmp.exe which were only using around 2MB of Memory but were taking up 40-50% of CPU each. Every program on my PC lagged and I had to end both processes via Task Manager.
Once I did this, everything was fine. But every time I connect my S3 to my PC I get these processes which freeze my computer.
Any idea what's happening and how to solve it? I've run virus scanners on my phone and PC.
Cheers
I'm wondering whether I'd be wise to do the following:

This has fixed the problem and made copying a lot faster.

i too am getting this, i have to open task manager and close it every time it pops up. what the hell is it
its soo annoying
edit: woops should put my glasses on. didnt realise it was a fix link :silly:
will try this guide... hope fix my issue
On windows 10 that process is started only upon user confirmation in case you try to transfer to the phone a video in unsupported format. The processor-intensive process is a video-conversion process.
Maybe in 2012, at the time of first post, this process was automatically started?
By the way, I really would like to know to which format I should convert my 2k and 4k videos to make them playable on Galaxy S3 Neo, any idea?
I get unplayable videos also after automatic mfpmp conversion to WMV!

and i tried installing all kinds of games (not from the playstore) like Asphalt 7
in the instruction i was told to copy afolder to the SDcard/Android/Obb....
this tablet does not have sdcard and when i checked under android folder ther was no Obb folder ???
i tried to buld one and copy the files there but still witout success
what is this folder and why its not on the Tablet
Thanks

Oob folder is where game data are stored. If it doesnt exist create that folder and paste the gamedata. Also you may need to patch framework.jar on you m1 as majority of the gameloft games has issues starting up their games on m1 . Tty googling "pipo m1 gameloft fix"

Thanks
Ill look for it
You know if that problem exist on the pipo m8 also ?
You're talking about pirated apps here, aren't you? That's not allowed. Where did you download Asphalt 7 from? Google Play Store and Amazon App Store both automatically download the game data. If not that then most games download the data into the right folder on first launch. None of the games, especially popular games like Asphalt 7, will ask you to download game data from somewhere else and put it in the obb folder unless it's a pirated game and working around the initial license check.
Most of people use pirated apps
Very few pays for them

You are right, but sometime even I launch the games purchased from Google Play, it has trouble downloading external data if you deleted them and try to redownload them again. Therefore, sometime it it is handy to keep everything in an obb file yourself for the future. Please keep in mind that I DO NOT ENCOURAGE people to pirate apps, I just buy the idea of obb...
Use Root Explorer if phone is rooted
Like the title says, use a root explorer and you should find the obb file.
No apps in Playstore tells you to copy the files to OBB, its obviously pirated
Hey, I installed Call of Duty Strike Team and after playing it once, obb was disappeared from obb folder and game isn't working.But, after uninstalling the game ,only apk is gone and the missing obb file is occupying my internal storage and I can't delete or find it.Please help and can't find solution anywhere.My device is rooted.My device is Samsung Galaxy Tab 3v PLEASE HELP............!

I have the same problem. I downloaded Asphalt 8 from the play store, about 1.5GB but I can't find its OBB files. It works fine though.

[Q] Some Games Stopped Working After Updating To Android 4.2

Hi everyone.
I have some high-graphics games on my Nexus 7. They all ran well until the device downloaded and updated to Android 4.2. Now, some games including Prince of Persia, Sonic 4, Real Boxing, ... do not run. They all say they can not 'find' their data files (usually located at sd\android\data or sd\android\obb). NFS Most Wanted (has separate data) and all other games that do not have separate data files work perfectly.
I guess it must be related to the change Android made in its storage structure. '0' and 'legacy' appeared and it seems that my games can not find their data files any more.
Is there anything I can do to get my lovely games back?
Thanks.

Restoring game obb files from backup

We have (had) a first-gen 16GB Nexus 7 that got damaged. It was not rooted. I periodically rsynced all the accessible files to my desktop. The last backup is nearly a month old, so some of the apps may have been updated since then. We just replaced with with a second-gen 32GB Nexus 7 running the same 4.2.2. This one has been rooted without modifying the bootloader.
I've tried copying all the obb files from our games (NOVA 3, Order & Chaos, Great Big War Game, Bloons Tower Defense 5, etc) from the desktop back to the new N7, but they just get ignored, putting the player back at the beginning of the game. I tried copying them before the games were installed, hoping the game would update the obb files as necessary during installation. No luck. I tried copying the obb files after the game was installed. Again, the game still ignores the old files, treating me as a new user with no history.
Any idea what's going on, and how I can get the games to recognize the old files so we don't lose all our history?
We should be getting the unrepaired, older N7 back from Asus eventually, complete with its cracked display. We may or may not be able to use it well enough to root it & pull all the 'data' directory from it.

The Unlimited Photo Storage Android?

So Google Pixel has a really cool selling point. Since the Camera is linked with your google drive (which has unlimited storage for regular HD photos), you essentially can be taking an unlimited amount of photos. However the Pixel is also stupidly priced (its a great phone, but if Im going to burn $1000 its going to be on an ACTUAL computer)
It got me thinking though is there a way accomplish the same task on a regular old android? I had a few Ideas an hit some brick walls.
1) My first idea was to download a photo app that would allow me to change where the storage is placed. There is one that exists however I was simply able to create a folder inside the path /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera. This might prove useful, but I am unable to change it directly into the google drive app.
2)My second idea was to download a file manager and try to change the route directly that way, possibly by deleting /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera and simply replacing the Google drive folder into that location and giving it the same name. I seem unable to do this though as I can not "Move" or alter the drive folder at all in the file manager I downloaded.
3)My THIRD idea was to create a symbolic link to the /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera connecting the Google drive folder to that folder. I downloaded a Terminal Emulator and with my elementary knowledge of BASH gave su access and attempted to link to the drive. I was unable to do this as any Camera image I take STILL saves directly to the phone!
Can someone please laugh at me already and tell me there is an easy way to accomplish this? I just want to STOP my phone from saving photos to my memory and simply have them stashed in my Google Drive! I REALIZE its possible to syn the two, however I dont want to have to constantly be emptying my storage.
Maybe I didn't get what you asked, but couldn't you just download Google Photos from Play Store and enable synchronisation?
EDIT: Missed your last lines, I'm sorry dunno why, anyway, on Oreo you can automatically empty your memory every 30/60/90 days through settings. Unfortunately I don't know if there's a way on Nougat and below.
