Hey all,
I have my LG Optimus 2X running with CyanogenMod 7 and I am perfectly happy with my device. A few days ago I wanted to buy Madden NFL 12. I did not find it in the Market. So I went to the NFL Homepage and clicked "buy now". Then the market opened and said that the game is not available in my country. I used the Market Enabler to fake my provider to Verizon. After that the Market gave me a message that this game is not compatible with my device. I also tried to mess around with the LCD Density but that did not help. After some further research it seems that the game is not compatible with the Tegra 2 platform at all! I really can't imagine that this game won't run on my LG Optimus 2x. So my question is: Is there maybe a way to get it running on my device? Maybe a modification in the build.prop? I have no idea why the game should not be compatible with the Optimus 2x.
Thanks in advance!
Using a bastardized version of Topogigi, it shows up fine in the market here, and I get to the point where I can click "Accept & Buy" (which I'm not going to do.)
Two alternatives I guess.
Download topogigi and compare the build.prop with yours.
or
Install another ROM, download and install, backup with TB, go back to CM and restore.
Thank you very much.
I used adb push to place the build.prop of the mentioned ROM to the CM7 Nightly I am currently running. After the reboot there was no connection to my carrier but the wireless LAN worked. It also showed Madden NFL 12 in the Market. I could buy, download, install AND play it! Nice. I switched back to the original build.prop and the game still works.
Again, thanks for the hint with the ROM. I'll have a closer look at the build.prop files at the weekend. Hopefully I find the difference that causes this.
This "method" should work with the 9mm game right? Because I'm running stock G2x and it says incompatible with device.. and I mean, come on, you know? I really don't know what other rom would be compatible because I don't like any of rom in that section, all buggy and all.. cm too.. I mean, stop with the nightlies and release stuff that work.. since there's a team with individual devices, let them be the "nightly" testers.. that's why stock and rooted is always the best.. anyways, sorry.. carried on out of nowhere..

I've done all the market hacks and tried all the tricks but im wondering why most of the actual 3d games i want to get to show off the muscle that this great little tegra 2 tablet can flex.
it seems like the games i want on here right now "pocket legend" and "rocket bunnies" don't show up in the market and I was looking forward to "dungeon defenders"
I think there needs to be a big push of actually finding a way to get the full market that my Nexus One gets...
This is mostly why i bought the tablet, and thanks to all the great devs here we've been able to get "almost" everything working (Thanks roebeet, et all)
maybe we can make a nice thread with some different market fingerprints and post market results? (or any other suggestions)
I am currently running the latest Vegantab beta4 fyi.

Well, as the guy who has tried all the market fingerprints and build.prop stuff and wrote the thread on the "full" market fix, I can tell you with some confidence that Pocket Legends and some of the other 3d games are a known issue - I have tried changing every build.prop setting to match that of my Nexus One (which finds those apps with no problem), and there are still a handful of 3d games that will not show up. I have also found that if you change too many of the settings in build.prop, you will eventually bootloop your G Tablet because Android itself gets confused about what it's running on.
You can find my notes on the subject in my posts on my thread in this forum on Full Market Fix.
In summary - the issue seems to be more than just using a different Market Fingerprint. That does not solve the problem, though it may make a few addition or a few less items show up. Right now, by most of my metrics, we have at least 95% of the items in Market showing up.
BTW, I have seen posts stating that the work around for Pocket Legends has been to download directly from their site, though I have not done so myself.
My understanding is that the CyanogenMod ROM for G Tablet does not require the Maket Fix and has no issues with missing items in Market because of the way the ROM image is built. I think the person to ask about this is bekriebel who built CyanogenMod for G Tablet - he can explain the concept of release-keys better than I can and how Market supports it out of the box on the CM ROM.
Unfortunately, it's a bit outside of my time availability right now to work much more on this, having already spent a day or more figuring out what I figured out. But please keep me in the loop if you figure anything else out!
I just thought it would be good to have a good constructive conversation about why else it might not be working... so the build.prop isnt the thing then.
its sad that 3d games are not showing up when this device was built for 3d gaming!
Pocket legends shows up on mine. got it installed...lemme try the other one..
EDIT: Strange they arent showing up anymore. when i was on Cyanogen 6.1 i Had them showing up. then again I didnt have the new market that looks like xbox live. strange...

this is what I'm refering to its so spotty. there is this great drawing app that i purchased that id love to use on the tab called "sketchbook mobile" but its not showing up for me either.
I know there have been lots of people working on it but it would be great if we could somehow compare market search results on some of them to find the best?
also if cyanogenmod has more working downloads is there anyway that the market from cyanogenmod can be rolled into Vegantab?
Dungeon Defenders is amazing its based on the unreal engine and really shows off this hardware.
If we are patient I am sure there will be many amazing games in the future for this CPU/chipset.
I had originally intended to only use the gtab until a good windows7 tab was released but after seeing Dungeon defenders on this system I seriously doubt any windows based tab will be able to come close to this tab for some time and I am sure the cost of a system like that will be much higher.
U need to check out this game to understand what I mean.

Agreed, DD plays perfectly on the gtab. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come once Honeycomb is in place and developers start making apps with tablets in mind.
anyone get the netflix streaming app working on their ds7's. I got it installed but it says my device is not supported.
Can maybe try this. Doubt it will work but hey worth a shot.

Have they yet released Netflix for a Tegra2 device? That will probably be when we can expect a port.
Didn't yhink about that. Good call

saw people were having luck with spoofing the i.d. of their device to a compatible device to trick netflix into working.
It installed fine and brings up my instant queue and such, just won't play them. Gives me a "your device is not currently supported".
Haven't had time to install the custom ROM and delve into those things yet, maybe next week I will.

I tried with all the values mentioned in that thread. Still no dice and changing all these to "vision" will FC Swype. even after changing build.prop back.
Swype back after cache and dalvik wiped. I'm noticing most with unofficial devices are having luck w/ cyanogen roms.
I have the LG G2X phone which is a tegra 2 and netflix is working for me just fine.
I made only two changes to the build.prop. but it only ran when I had CM 7 installed. Not when I had stock froyo. I just tried with the streak 7 and it looks like it starts to play but then exits.. It's also not working on the asus transformer with the build.prop
weird that it works on an asop rom.
Stupid question, Cause I have a G1 and a HD2 which can run android. Think either of these would be able to be used to test if this works? Or would it be pointless.
Im running Netflix now on my HTC Aria running FR008 Rom. bet it works on yours too!

The hd2 can run netflix fine as long as you use the nexus one based builds. I run it without a problem. The Hd2 has been able to run netflix using windows phone 7 since windows phone 7 was able to be ran on it.
Thanks, Upgraded from Superram to the Nexus GB rom, Got it on my HD2 now. =)
Now just to wait on Dell.... sending my streak 7 in to get rid of this random menu/keyboard poping up issue Ive been having. Then hopefully things work 100% stable.
What are you guys using for a prop editor and where can I get it?

I just wanted to let you all know that order and chaos hd is available thru gamelofts mobile site. Of course you have to tell the system your using the lg g2x optimus star dop. I bought it last night. If youre in the games club its $2.99 otherwise its $4.99. I downloaded it on my streak last night. It has a right at 700 meg download so you might wanna be on wifi. I played last night and it downloaded all my created characters and money and game progress. So if you play on another device you dont havta start all over. It ran pretty good with a few graphical hiccups every now and then. But other than that, it was just the same as my other devices I play on. Feel free to add me on gameloft live, daniel3334. See you all in game!!

Would be nice if you can post the way how you have mod the Streak to play the Game.
Do you use the Swipe keyboard?
No mods at all. My streak is stock 2.2.2 of course it is rooted.but when you go to gamelofts mobile site it will say no games for your device. Look at bottom of the screen and it will say your device Dell Streak 7. Click on that. Then it will take you to a screen with all device manufacturers list. You wanna click LG, next screen scroll way down until you see LG OPTIMUS G2X P990 STAR DOP. When you click that link it then should take you to that phones list of games. Like I said at start, I dont use any mods. I use the games stock virtual joysticks. Every game on the list for the LG P990 OPTIMUS G2X STAR DOP from Gameloft I have purchased,except for shrek. And they all work for me using stock virtual joysticks from the game. The touch controls and virtual joysticks are great on this game, and many more from Gameloft! Just make sure you are clicking on the phone name I gave you. If you click on wrong phone model, then the game may not work period!! Also ive found thru playing that these games work best on wifi. When I didnt use wifi, the games acted crazy. If you have any more questions or need help feel free to leave a post or pm here on XDA. Also check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952058 . It is dealing with Gameloft games and how to do it also.

Will that copy work on my moto x2 running eclipse?
Hello, I created an account so I could post in this thread as I really want to play the game. I have a Dell Streak 7 Android v3.2 and was wondering how I can buy this game and if it will work with my version? It isn't in the Play Store and I do see it on the Gameloft site. What is the exact procedure as of today, May 11th 2012, that I need to following to buy and subscribe to this game?
Thanks for any help!
Ok I followed your instructions and told the Gameloft site that I was an LG P990 Optimus 2x (Star Dop) and it allowed me to download and install the first part. When I go to run it I get the Gameloft splash screen then the Order and Chaos HD screen where it wants to download the game but it gives me a "A problem occured and the download could not be completed successfully. Do you want to restart the download? An unstable network may cause problems when downloading." I am given a YES and NO option and I keep hitting yes and it attempts something for a split second then keeps coming up with the same error.
What can I do to fix this? I am running 3.2 Honeycomb on my Dell Streak 7.
I really want to play this game and will do whatever I need to to get it to work on my Dell Streak 7. I have never rooted my Streak or used a alternate ROM but I will if it means I can play this game.
Please tell me what I need to do to be able to play this game on my Dell Streak 7.
Any Ideas

just wanted to update my post,, just recently updated roms to sabsa prime 5.0 thinking about changing the scripts to unlimited boost. running great thanks to the people who spent time replying to my posts
I was sitting here waiting patiently at the doctors office with a friend and decided to go on smart world and see what was available. Well if you register your device in canada they have a TON of 3D games available for download, soiderman, avatar, nova 2, assassins creed... problem is everytime i try to download one it says service not available all other non 3D downloads work though, i have tried all carriers and still no luck. Was wondering if someone else could try this out and tell me if you are able to download because i am wondering if its because i am going through att data network (no wifi here) going to try when i get home. If that doesn't work i am going to try routing my phone through a canadian proxy see if that works because if you register in the states the games are 5 bucks. Can anyone get these downloaded? If you do can you post a zip with the apks? Thanks
Another thought is maybe make a nandroid backup, flash an o3d rom and try downloading... i dunno, i am determined to get these games for free if i can. Sucks... other countries have all the fun...
Didn't even think about the fact smart world uses the lg drm service... maybe an overseas drm on a thrill rom will do the trick... welp i got work to do when i get home...
Did it work over wifi?? I'm having the same issue I can download everything else but not the 3d games. Oh and i'm running on your slim ROM and loving it!! Can't wait to see what the update is. I would love to see the face unlock that ics has!!! Have no idea if its possible but would be awesome!!!

Hello all,
EA has launched Real Racing2 for Android and it looks slick! market however says its not compatible with our device.
Has anybody ported the game for gtab or in process of doing so? here's the promo for everyone to drool
Im running mountain laurel and paid for it. It dl'd all the sd data then told me it wasn't compatible. I was bummed too because it does look great. Fortunately I did get a refund.

I seem to be able to play the free part of the game, without any problems. Were you able to do that? It downloaded about 500MB after install though. I am running TNT Lite 4.4 (Froyo) and have a olympus build.prop fix. Am not planning to buy it, but the free part with 1 car works fine.
