Hello, everyone.
As you can see, I have Galaxy Ace S5830i. Today I decided to download GTA 3 (yes, download. Not buy) and try to run it on my phone. I know that on normal Ace, without "i", GTA 3 runs. But when I tried to run it on my Ace, with "i", black screen shows for a few seconds and returns to the screen with my apps. After when I rooted my phone, installed Chainfire 3D and tried to run GTA 3, the black screen shows but it doesn't disappear. When I press "setting button", below the screen and next to the home button, the phone vibrates for less than half a second.
In Google Play, the page with GTA 3 says that it's compatible with my phone, so I don't understand why it doesn't work... I downloaded .apk file and files to the SD card. I put the .apk file into the SD card and the folder "com.rockstar.gta3" into the "Android/data". I tried to run 1.2 and 1.3 version.
Any sugesstions? Also before installing Chainfire 3D I was trying to run the game. I was trying everything and still nothing.
Android version: 2.3.6
Sorry for any grammar mistakes. My English isn't perfect.
No one has found a way to run GTA3 on this device yet
Goole Play says it's compatible with this phone, so it should work... In theory.
It dosen't work, my friend buy it and he was so angry because the game dosen't work properly.
Regards

Thanks for replies, guys. I still don't understand why it doesn't work on this phone... There're almost no differences between S5830i and S5830, so it should work similar on both phones.
Thanks again.

There's a major difference. CPU and GPU are different, and come from a different company
The exterior is the same though.
Probably S5830i is very similar to Galaxy Y (this same GPU etc.) and on this phone GTA 3 runs fine. Now, I really don't understand why GTA 3 doesn't work on S5830i...

Agree, don't know why... but hope the next Vice City mobile works on this device :good:
Rockstar Games says that GTA 3 works only on Android devices with Tegra. A lot of devices don't have Tegra, but the game works fine on them. I hope Rockstar will do something about S5830i. Maybe not with GTA 3, but I really care about Vice City.
i was fooled too
this phone sucks without Divers...But I have some good news ... GPU drivers for the test .. and will be released soon ... then you will 100% be able to play GTA ... I even think that we could play a lot more games than regular Ace S5830
Wow, would be great. If GTA 3 will work smoothly, I hope that Vice City too.

We have been listening this GOOD NEWS for quite a time now......with crossed fingers
These drivers would be released by official Samsung developers or "third" developers?
Drivers will be released by Broadcom, which is the manufacturer of the processor in this phone
The CPU is cheaper...
I think this...in the s5830 the game is working with the CPU and the GPU... but the s5830i has a different CPU and GPU...and at some post i readed about the difference betwen this two decives...and the CPU of the s5830i is more cheaper than the s5830...i dont remember in what post but... i readed about it, here in the XDA... so may be the reason no?
Maybe it'll be interesting for someone -> http://support.rockstargames.com/requests/521313
I sent an email to Rockstar Support about GTA 3 on S5830i. Maybe the answer is helpful, maybe not, don't know. I didn't try.
I can't access it, what does it say?

Hmmm the Xperia is identical to GS+ apart from a slower clocked CPU, it just goes to show the software that samsung have stuck on this phone is dog**** and slow.
You could try the better GPU drivers for our phone have a look here.

we are stuck with it until Samsung start supporting our device more, the cheaper Galaxy W is getting all the support it needs i knew i should of bought that one instead.
1st: next time post such stuff in the Q&A thread
2nd: the first thing i noticed, other than that the whole stock software is crappy, is that RAM performance is not well customized, try using the supercharger script and set the minfrees for 512mb RAM, i think ur problem lies there.. i use the stock rom with stock kernel, i free ram with the stock task manager before launching it and GTA3 runs just fine

the hardware on the S+ is really great for a single core phone, but the software sucks, if we had a lil more developing in our section we would've had the real deal , even though there are a few custom roms out there. my friend who owns an iphone 4 always repeats the fact that he doesn't need to do anything additional to his phone and that "it just works", and we have to accept that fact, even though, with the right software we can get a better product than the iphone 4

if Apple makes a better product then we gotta admit it and give them the credits for that. there is no need for any Android vs iphone mood. Competition is healthy, it can only make our phones better.

1. This discussion belongs in the general discussion thread not in the development section.
2. Unless you intend starting a flame war I would suggest that singing the praises of a certain fruit associated manufacturer in an Android forum is not a great plan.
3. If you want to compare phones then make sure they are in the same price class. So if your going to match Android against the fruit munger phone then you need to compare with the galaxy nexus or galaxy s ii.

NO
Im playing the game right now and it runs smooth, you cant even see framedrops.
this game was made for the 9001, i only heard of people having problems with the normal galaxy. maybe you need to get your phone fixed or clear up some ram, because what you're saying is simply not true.

AFAIK GTA3 is supposed to run on devices with a dual-core processor (iPhone 4S, SGS2, Sensation etc).
I guess it's not a marketing trick (like it was in case of most "tegra only" games) and the game really needs 2 cores for runing fine and smooth.
Anyway, i dont think we lost something big
Its working perfectly on my Sensation, brilliant gameplay and smooth frame rates...
Meh I'm gonna wait for some Vice City before putting GTA on any if my phones. After Vice City was released, I can't even play GTA III anymore...

Im running Cm7 with Chainfire3d installed. It is on Glitch's kernel at 1.2 GHz. it runs well. Im already up to the 2nd island!
First of all i'd like to say hello to everyone here
Now, i'll share with you my problem and hope thats somebody here knows what's the problem.. Well i installed some games in my note (n7000, the european version) then, some of them don't work properly the graphics look pretty bad or i got some parts of te screen in black and i'm worried that this could be some problems with the graphics chip... Althogh the menu of the game works properly. This happends with games like nfs hot pursuit or shadow guardian but other games like dead space which also has great graphics works excellent.
The phone is new, i bought it yesterday xD so if is there any problem with the hardware ill get it back. Thanks for reading and every little help is appreciated
I'll upload now some screen captures as i don't see how to do it from here xD
Moved To Q&A
Please post all questions in the Q&A section
looks like a major hardware issue to me.
I would update the software to the latest available (OTA / Kies). If the problem remains, send it back for a replacement.
it says i already have the latest firmware... anyway i'm doing a back up so ill restore it after that and we will see then if the problem persists...
I just did a quick check in The Market, and it shows that NFS Hot Pursuit isn't compatible with the Note. Shadow Guardian dosen't show as being available for the Note on the Gameloft site either (unless I'm missing something as I've not bought from Gameloft).
oh i was wrong it's not called shadow guardian is shadowgun XD anyway this fors example says that it is compatible with the note but doesn't work properly neither... in the asphald 6 that i downloaded when i use the nitrous boost appears some stripes but in the one downloaded in the samsung apps seems to work good but has no sound and i think it has lower quality... you may be right and to be just a problem of compatibility... so to be sure if somebody can install the same game as i installed, i'll give the link.. to tell me if it's working fine or his phone or not would be great... thanks for reading and replying to everybody and sorry for my bad english
Shadowgun is working for me

I don't know if you are allowed to post that link here so you may have to send me a pm.. But i'm not sure... Anyway i appreciate your reply.. Now i know that the games nust run well on the note
Today at school i talket with a classmate that owns an sgs 2 and he told me that sometimes that happens in his phone too so there os no problem with the hardware it's just the game not fully compatible or something like that... I guess the thread can be closed now, thanks to everybody for the help

I feel bad about my Note in regards of gaming. My Atrix 4G have much better graphics at least on those optimized for nVidia Tegra. ShadowGun for example, on the Atrix I can see the much better shader effects like fog, dust particles, explosions, shadows and glare. The Note simply don't show any of these effects. It looks flat and lacking :-(

That's up to the developers of Shadowgun, not the Note hardware. Apparently nvidia has bribed them to only support tegra. The Note GPU is better so there's no technical reason for those effects to not work.

I have also noticed that most of the games that have good graphics are usually optimized for for the tegra devices, anyway comparing the graphics between my note playing dead space and the ps vita with the unchertd i think there is not a huge difference...

You sure did install chainfire 3d but have you installed its plugins ? .
Also is your cpu overclocked ?
I play games on my mini s5570 on 734mhz and chainfire 3d plugins .
my cpu clock is 832mhz, i+ve got chanfire 3d installed with all of the plugins and it can't play some games. like need for speed shift, asphalt
S5570i has crap GPU, that's why HD games aren't working. That is actually a good thing for you, to stop playing games on a ****ing 3.2inch screen . PCs and gaming consoles are for gaming, Galaxy Mini is not!
Just what domcale said... btw. I wanted to say that! :d lol

Iron Man works well, no idea about other gameloft games though. However, as an advice I wouldn't buy this device for gaming. There are other phones with better battery performance, bigger screen although most games run pretty well. I would say just get a small tablet or a phablet.
