I took the ones from data\app on my phone and placed them in system\app on my Nook Color and changed the permissions. After a reboot, I can find them in the launcher, but when I press on them they close instantly.
Has anyone gotten any of these games to work?
I've gotten Dungeon Hunter to work really well just by installing it normally...
Of course I'm fully rooted with market and everything.
Gameloft Games= Some Work

Yes, I've had some success with gameloft, I posted in another thread, "apps that work....I think" But it has grown to twenty something pages, and games are not addressed specifically.
Loaded and working on my NC, (these came from my SCaptivate froyo 2.2)
Working
*Gangster
*Hawx
*NOVA
*Sandstorm (need to stop game and then resume to clear up horizontal black bar)
Not working (for me) Assassin's Creed/Uno/Let's Golf
It is an aspect ratio issue, the controls are offset and don't work correctly.
*Assassin's Creed, is the only one I've tested that responds the same way as yours (paul22000), loads then closes.
I've seen, in another thread (not the one referenced above) that Asphalt 5 works, if I remember correctly they used a tablet version. They explained how to get the correct download and it seemed well thought out, but I have not tried it myself.
Asphalt 5 (tab version) and UNO (tab version) work without a hitch.
Nova, Hero of Sparta, & Dungeon Hunter all work for me.
"HD" versions of spider man and dungeon hunter works great.
I have the following working:
NOVA
Dungeon Hunter
Asphalt 5
Dungeon Hunter works perfectly. Hero of Sparta works but the controls are offset, as someone else reported. Basically the hand controls appear where they would if the screen were WVGA instead of WSVGA. I was able to install both normally on my rooted NC.
How are you guys downloading these games?
I only have the two free games they gave out for the month of December.

NOVA 3.1.3 (galaxy tab version) crashes as soon as I open it. Any solutions?
I installed Dungeon Hunter HD and Asphalt 5 3.1.3.0 and it tells me i need more space on my sd card.
My sd card is formatted for the NC root. Obviously, my NC has been rooted already, can i re-format my sd card for more space? or do i need to leave the sd image alone? I don't know if the nook boots from the sd or what.
Can I re-format my SD without encountering problems on the NC?

Yes, you can reformat. And just so you know, this question has been asked like a billion times.
The Galaxy Tab versions Dungeon Hunter and Asphalt 5 DO work here (I haven't purchased any others to test). The only obvious issue I've had with them is that the MP4s for the Intros and Cutscenes don't play, so be aware of this. Didn't see this mentioned already, so I thought I'd put it out there.
The reason for this is the 1024x600 resolution (not baseline profile) of these video files. I ran the LOGO.mp4 of Asphalt 5 through handbrake and after that the NC's built in video app was able to play it. However, Asphalt doesn't like the replacement file and asks to re-download the original.
While the intro isn't all that important, it was just a test to see if it could be replaced. Perhaps it can't because of some checksum, etc? Hopefully not too much (of import) is missed by the games just skipping over these files that the NC can't play.
I remember being able to play Asphalt HD on my NC on 1/13/10. Asphalt would simply skip over the (unplayable 1024x600) cutscene video and continue to the game itself. But since I installed that the latest update the game displays a dialog message saying "sorry could not play this file" before shutting it's self down.
So I tried resizing the cutscene video with Dvdcatalyst to 854x480 and uploading the cropped file to the nook color. But when I launched Asphalt I got the same message that epakrat75 got asking me to download 22 megabytes. Which ultimately replace the cropped cutscene with the original but unplayable cutscene.
Sad thing is I know that the game plays well on the nook color because I was able to do so only a few days ago. If only I could find a way to get the game to skip the cutscene without crashing.

So far I've played every gameloft game on the nook color (galaxy tab versions) only asphalt, modern combat, Spiderman, uno, ad modern combat work. Every other game (gangstar, Nova, etc.) Cranes out on the video or gets really fidgety with the popular notification so you can't get past it. But Ive Berenice having lots of fun with modern combat and Spiderman recently.

I tried to buy Gangstar Miami for samsung to install on my Nook, but I get this:
Sorry, Gangstar: Miami Vindication HD is not available for your phone at the moment. from the Gameloft website.
How the hell do you get without paying. I've try a few from google but once installed I get this is not an orignal copy of the Gangstar Miami, then Sandstorm, and dungeon hunter displays the same message.
Can someone PM a good like for gangstar? Thanks.
I've had similar luck as the others above with the galaxy tab versions. I was able to get spiderman, dungeon hunter and uno working, but after the sdcard data downloads everything works, until i quit the game and try again, then it won't work...
Anyone have any successes with gameloft games?
I got xperia Z with 16 GB of internal Memory. I have downloaded 6 games like Dark khight rises, Amazing Spider man, Max payne Back stab. These games has already occured 90 % of the internal Memory and i want to install More games like Wild blood, Modern combat etc ( games with more than 1 GB sd data).
I purcased 32 GB of memory card and tried moving the the gmes data to external Memory. But the respective games doesnt work after moving.
Please help how can i play games installing the Games in External memory.
Install app2sd it allows you to move apps to the sd

app2sd doesn't work on xz
I installed app2sd and it didn't work, subsequently read a thread that said it's because of the way sony configured the internal memory, not a problem with the app.
You can change where music, downloads, video and photos are saved, from internal card to external card, via various settings.
But I think you'll find apps have to be installed to the internal card and run from there.
Unless one of the talented xda developers has already created a mod to overcome the problem
EDIT
. . . hey presto, solution here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239289 courtesy of KYRIE1965
hi XZ owners !:highfive:
the Z has 16GB rom but now almost all games have a large data size (nova 3, asphalt 7, NFS:MW ....etc)
i was just wondering if we can change only the data directory and not swap internal with external storage ...
i bought a 32GB sd card and i cant use it!
Try foldermount - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192122
Note - It requires root and I haven't tried it myself

All apps that will allow you to store game data of SD card will recquire root access. Here is yet another one for gameloft games:

thanks for replying
i'll try both apps
Searched the forum and did not see anything directly for Nook HD/+ or CM so im here...
I would like to move some programs (more so games) to a SD Card and just pop the card in when i want to play the games.
Is this possible ?
Would this work for "fast paced" graphic games like race car games (reading off SD card) ?
Could i use symlinks form the games org install location and point them to the SD Card ?

I wouldn't mind knowing about this either, I have titanium backups which usually has an option to move things to SD and there isn't any option for the Nook.
About the question for racing games, I doubt there would be any issue as I've had all my games installed to SD on my old Evo 3D and I never noticed a degradation in game play. Perhaps slightly longer load times, but I can't say I noticed any.

I use GL to SD to move game data to the SD card, and it works for most games just fine. I have a 32GB Sandisk Ultra, and I am running CM 10.2.
hi guys.... i bought note 5 32gb .... but this is horrible without microSD....
yes i know we can save our images and videos on wireless Hard drive and cloud storage....but what about applications and games... can i some how change location of my apps and games data; like we used to do in sd cards?
what about changing a destination of camera saving directory?:crying:
thanks a lot
Honestly, I would root the device, install a custom rom. Take out all bloat ware and save all pics and music to a cloud based storage. Apps and games would be saved to internal memory unless you don't mind carrying around the external sd card.
