Hi Guys.

Only problem is I cant exit.
If I just exit via the home button it carries on running in the notification bar
Have to go into a task manager or such like to kill it???

Hi all, I am using Gingerbread 2.3.3 now and the gameboid refuse to work. When I tried to upload a ROM, then suddenly it stopped functioning. It worked perfectly fine when I use Froyo 2.2.1. Can someone help me? or do I need to downgrade it to Froyo just for Gameboid.
Your a lifesaver. I searched earlier this year for this and struggled to find it. Pokemon FTW
hi
well, first of all, i bought Backstab game, which asked me to download
about 666 mb of game files, whenever it reaches 30% it stops , i got and error
and as me to start all over again, and when i do , the same thing happen?
2nd, why there is no video call in the dialer?
is there any way to add this feature
last help i need, how to stop the vibration when i click
on a number in the dialer, i searched everywhere but could not find
anything to stop, how to do it??
well, i asked alot
thanx in advance
1. Can you tell us what the error was? The rough context of it.
2. Nope it's not exactly like iOS. Unless someone makes a custom dialer. In the end what is the use there is no infrastructure to support it yet anyway. You could use Google talk or skype or anything similar though
3. I can't help you on this right know because I don't have a play with me but when I get it I will look into it. Did try looking through all the settings?
1-" A problem occurred and the download could not be completed successfully, do you want to restart the download? "
I've downloaded Asphalt 6 with no problems, and I've sent gameloft 3 times about this problem, and for some reason they still did not respond.
2- this is ugly, i used to use this feature a lot , i hope SE , or google add it soon.
3- yes i did , looked everywhere, nothing about it, i had X10 mini, and this option was available, can't find it here.

is it possible u are downloading to the play v your sd card. 666*.3=~200. could be the case that u are running out of space. seems like after installing a few apps/games that you'd have 200 meg left which is where u are hitting the error.
@persain
i had the same idea, but how to solve this??
i think it should go directly to SD card
cuz i downloaded Asphalt 6 , and had no problem
??
wooow
the support of gameloft is really bad
they told me sorry we cant help you
and refunded me
@ysfm
Not sure how to fix it unless u see a "Save to" option when u go to download the game. (dont have a play yet, its in the mail so i cant test)
but at least u got your money back, would suck to not be able to install and be out the $$.
Hi all, i've been all over the internet including the gameloft forums and cant find a fix.
Gameloft support are useless, every time i ask a question they send a free game (yes i'm complaining), without an answer.
I want NOVA 2 to work.
The game crashes after the intro video, i see a loading logo music starts then it just closes, not warning error or nothing.
Is it just my Xperia Play? i know other people have had this problem but its seems to be small majority.
I'm in the UK.
I have a sim free Xperia play with a T Mobile contract.
I have Version 1.0.2 of NOVA 2.
2.3.3 Android
I am not rooted or unlocked.
All my other gameloft games work fine.
Could it be another app causing the problem?
Any advice or help would be great, i am going slightly mad with this problem.
Blonqe.

Works ok for me.
The look control sucks anyway. What the hell? We have to slide it like a track ball. That sucks badly when some is shooting you in the back.

Yep. Gameloft need to sort the look controls to work like a control pad and not a touchscreen for all their fps games.
@OP Downgrade to 2.3.2 and all Gameloft games work fine.
Not true, I bought it first day of release and back then I was still on 2.3.2. Same problem as I still have today!
Ok.
Solution then -
When you see nothing but black screen, hold down the home key and then select Nova 2.
Or hit the home key to go to home, then hold the home key and select Nova 2.
Gameloft black screens are fixed simply by reselecting the game without actually exiting it.
Rainbow 6 is a good game

Thanks for the solution, unfortuantly I have tried this, works for modern combat 2 but not nova 2.
Like I say the game loads I hear some music while the loading screen is on, then it justs knocks off!
I'm clueless and I think gameloft are too, thise forum was my last go at finding a solution :-(

If you publish the logcat of the whole process from opening the app to the FC, there may be a chance to see what's going on.
Dorry to be a complete noob, where do I find the logcat and hoq do I obtain it?

Let me rephrase that. The link takes me to the proper place to download the file, But clicking on the download link gives me a 403 error. I'll give it another shot in a few.
BTW when I install 1.8 it tell me I need to download the demo file but when I attempt to download it, the program says starting download and never does anything else.
Could be getting hammered then. Sorry about that, as i thought you meant the main link.
When you go to the tools, under menu. Where it says download data file. You can hit the drop down arrow and choose from like 60 download sites. Thanks

I have the same problem. It loads up, but I can't seem to control anything.
Thanks for the help guys. I had control issues, but plugging in a keyboard seemed to work, didn't get a chance to try mouse and keyboars though.
This was made for CM7 A3.5, not sure if it'll work right on other builds.
What this does specifically:
1) It makes the status bar 168 in height.
2) It adds 133 padding to the top of the status bar to align the status bar contents back to the bottom.
What it achieves:
1) 16:9 App Space, if a game was designed to compensate via stretch, scale, etc..., for the status bar. A lot of games do.
2) It makes quite a number of games made specifically for 16:9 tablets have better or functional touch UI's so you can actually play them. Dungen Hunter 2 for example will require this. Majesty: Fantasy Kingdom works better with this. Exitium: Saviors of Vardonia needs this to have a fully functional UI in all menu's etc...
Downside:
1) You will have a huge chunk of black space on your status bar. Maybe someone more bord can go elaborate and write a toggle button for this or something. I'm not there yet. Lmao. & I've gotten used to it, so it's not that ugly anymore. I rather have functionality over pretty until ICS comes out.
Instructions:
Back up your
/system/framework/framework.apk
/system/app/SystemUI.apk
copy provided framework.apk to /system
copy provided SystemUI.apk to /system
change permissions of provided framework.apk to RW-R--R--
change permissions of provided SystemUI.apk to RW-R--R--
move provided framework.apk to /system/framework and overwrite
move provided SystemUI.apk to /system/app and overwrite
dungeon hunter 2 and exitium are the best example of what this tweak makes work.
for dungeon hunter 2: the graphics and touch control graphics are aligned to the bottom of the screen while their respective touch location on the screen is aligned to the top. the offset between touch location and graphic makes the game unplayable.
for exitium: the menus and stuff overlaps, you can't even access your cash account online to grab your free coins for buying the game. a lot of menus are overlapped, armor screens are overlapped, etc... because the aspect ratio the GUI was designed for is 16:9.
Game List that this tweak helps on (more 2 come):
Dungeon Hunter 2 Samsung GP1000 version + must have ChainFire3D and Reduce Texture to 16bit.
Exitium: Saviors of Vardonia
Asphalt 5 Samsung GP1000 version
could you post a screenshot?
I'm assuming this wouldn't work on the MIUI ROM.
But you did answer my question about why I couldn't get Dungeon Hunter 2 or Sacred Odyssey working.

well, you need ChainFire3D to get some of the gameloft games working.
toggle 16bit textures on. & try the Nvidia and THD plugins.
this is in addition to ChainFire3D. like Dungeon Hunter 2 was unplayable even when working due to the touch positions being displaced from the visual UI. this helps the put the visual UI @ their touch positions.
also, after you purchase the game from gameloft, you'll have to search the net for the Samsung Galaxy P1000 Tablet apk of the game. there's a thread at rootzwiki on game compatibility that gives a lot of info on how to get some of these games working.

Sorry. The game loads and you can log in if you actually signed up and the screen is just black and you can hear music. I also went into settings and disabled the status bar when an app wants full screen and this did not fix the game from staying just black and having music.

Interesting. Maybe I will clean install or something. I tried using chainfire but I am not sure if I am installing the plugins properly. Nothing seems to happen when I try to enable a plugin. Do I need pro?

Whoa, I tried reinstalling without doing anything different and I am stuck on a "Loading" screen. I've been on it for about 10 minutes. About how long did it take you to get past this screen?
Yeah, the game is stuck on the Loading screen. It should be saying "Downloading content" or something like that. Bummer. Not sure what is going on.
I even uninstalled xron and installed CM 7 3.5 and I am stuck on the "loading" screen.

ok, googled the issue, and read complaints about not being able to connect & apparently the game makers of this game are retarded; this game has an issue, not device specific, where people can't connect to the content servers. & are SOL because the game developer is completely ignoring the issue. some people complained about un-install, then re-install, and bricked the game. so I tried that, and bam! stuck at loading screen like you. lmao! i guess try to make a new account and see if that'll let you in. the first time i tried it was with a new acct. obviously it's a server or major development problem if you can get in with new accounts but can't get in with an already active one.
add: no luck with new account either. maybe it's just random luck to get into the content download server? lmao. sry, i didn't think ahead and titanium back my app data for you & me before i un-installed and re-installed. lol. i guess if someone out there could provide titanium back up data on this apps external data we could just restore that and avoid having to connect to download it.
