Has anybody been able to play spiderman, or modern combat2, or splinter cell because i cant?
First time i tried it gave me an error when downloading content. I found out that sammy has a download policy so this was a no go. I then installed them on my htc desire and downloaded all 3 above games and tested them and they all work. I copied yhe downloaded content to my samsung hoping that my problem was solved. But for my suprise spiderman and modern combat2 started but they still want to download content and of course it fails. Splinter cell on the other side started the game but when i am in it doesnt show me any textures of the environment and everything is white.
So please someone help me.
I have to mention that the games were bought from my carrier's webpage and they all work perfect on my htc desire.

I've got them all and they all work flawlessly. I bought modern warfare from the market, bought the others through the discounted ads that appear in angry bird, leading you to but the games from their site.

Did you buy the games from your SGS2? I sent my apks to a friend and he had same problems.maybe the original phones are registered upon purchase such that the apk will not work on other phones

99% of apps you obtain via Google Market or Amazon App Store or Gameloft/third party, are locked to either your google account, amazon account, or your phone/imei.
I really don't want to mess up with forum rules here, so I ask, is it ok to post a link to another forum's thread with Android's HD game releases?

sure, go ahead, as long as you don't sell those apps yourself there or that site contains warez, you should be fine. in general, links to shops or other forums are tolerated or (if helpful) appreciated.
just a quick note...buy games from wap gameloft website and its cheaper then buying from market.android...

First of all... i've got those games working fine on my phone + GTracing which also works flawlessly.
Bought Modern Combat 2 through the gamehub, but bought the other 3 directly from Gameloft from the website.
And another thing. Gameloft has a download policy, that reads the specs and model of yout phone, so the game is locked to the phone - therefore it does NOT work on any other phone, if you try to move the .APK. So if you change your phone, you have to buy the games again. They give the reason that they have to develop the games specific for the phones, as Android and Android-hardware is very fragmented (in which they have a point), and that cost them a lot of money - opposed to iOS, which is the same on all iPhones - which apparently is cheaper to develop to.
You CAN buy some games from gameloft though - like Modern Combat 2 - on the market, and that will follow your future line of phones, but it is also more expensive in the market (about 40%), for the reasons explained above.
But the games is very cheap directly from the website (sometimes down to 1-1,5 Euro for the HD-games, when on sale), when you see what you get for the money - so i guess it's an allright policy in my opinion...
Via their tweet, which you can get here, they're doing Let's Golf for free for the next couple of hours. Unfortunately, it's apparently not compatible with the SGS2.
Just thought I'd let you guys know about it now anyway, as lots of us have other devices as well.

Sucks I know. But you can buy some of their other games for 99p instead of £3. I managed to purchase quite a few games at 99p.
Ironically it let me purchase Let's Golf 2 HD for 99p and the download filename had GTi9100 in the actual filename so it's utter rubbish it does not support this phone....

The freebies are for the UK only, for whatever reason.
There was a post somewhere earlier about the free games, and that explained that, but I can't find it due to the search currently being down.
Yesterday I bought my first game for the SGS2 and since I'm a huge fan of racing games... guess what is the tittle -> Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD from Gameloft.
And now the interesting part:
1) As you can see from the images below, in the Android Market on my PC there is this message: 'This item is not compatible with your device.' (The same is with N.O.V.A. 2).
2) Prices!!! Asphalt 6 HD in Android Market costs 4.92 euro (today is 4.89 ). BUT in the gameloft's web store it is only 3 euro. And the same is with all other games.
Strange and I wonder why are these differences
Starforce woks fine too.

There are actually games for the Transformer, but they aren't showing up on that page for whatever unknown reason. Apparently Asphalt 6 HD, Dungeon Hunter 2 HD, Spiderman HD, Uno HD, and a couple others are available for purchase. I'm probably going to purchase the DH2 once I see if the one I downloaded works. Also, keep in mind that it might not show up, but if you go to check out and select your device properly, if you can't buy the game for that device it'll show you what games are available for it below. Thats how I figured out what was available. But it's ONLY on the gameloft website (which I accessed from the PC I'm typing this up on, trying to access it via my transformer's browser brings up the same old 'no games available for your device' screen).
What a small world as i am just around the corner from you mate.
also thanks for the heads up about using PC to access gameloft website.

Need modern combat
I long since given up on Gameloft. While they finally dipped their toes in the Android Market, their service is as great as the McDonalds in my Queens neighborhood. I really hope some other company can step up to the plate as the go to company for Android gaming. Recently com2us and Glu (sorta) has filled the void. Though I am craving for a graphic intense game. I just wished all these companies would stop over looking Android. The day "Infinity Blade", "Back to the Future" comes out to our devices is the day Android would be a few steps behind IOS gaming wise.

Not gonna disagree with you there. But I see the real problem with Android in how it's entirely too easy to pirate in comparison to IOS. About the only statistic that I'm willing to believe is the one about the percentage of IOS users that buy apps compared to Android users. I'm as guilty as anyone, I've bought approximately 10 applications so far.
I'd like to see a really nice 3D game come to Android, and only Android. I had been considering developing my own, but sadly it's not something I can pickup and do in my free time given my life at the moment. Until someone does something like that (probably similar to Infinity Blade, but something more fun and something that has a longer lifespan than playing it once and being done), Android will continue to be IOS's bastard step child as far as games are concerned.

have support !!!!
nice
wow, i hope they can add nova 2 or modern combat to that list soon.
it would be nice to get dead space to have native support without rooting too.
Downloading apks does have an effect on some companys bringing new apps to android but as the quality goes up and the pricing becomes more competitive i think this will become less of an issue, at least i hope so.
For me if i know that its going to work out of the box i will happily pay for an app, as i have have done with my collection of tegra games but if there is any dought then i may do a little try before i buy just to find out if its going to work and then delete if it does,nt or buy if it does.
I would love to play GT Racing on my tablet so fingers crossed things do improve.

All the games that work on the Xoom should work on the TF. However you have to use the Xoom link in order to buy & download the games.

uhhhhhhh.....wrong. The Xoom games do not work on the TF. In some cases you can change the build.prop file and get a few working. The list is in a thread in the "Themes and Apps" section. This was not a new question posted by the OP. The subject may have been the same but he was stating that Gameloft was going to start supporting the TF specifically and was wondering where this support was.

Go to post #7 (my post). It should have instructions on how to purchase games for the TF101. Yes, the games in that link are the ones that are currently available for the TF101. I downloaded DH2 last night, and I have been playing it today without ANY issues whatsoever. Same with the latest Order and Chaos, been playing that today, but it is not officially supported.....You have to use the Xoom version. It does work. 1.0.3
I thought this was pretty BS, and wanted to share this. I bought the games less than 2 months ago and wanted to download them to my new Note. Here is their response back to me.
"Unfortunately, you can not get the games back on your new phone. According to Gameloft policy if you buy a game, you can re-download it to the same phone with the same phone number within 3 years of your purchase. If the phone model or number was changed by the customer's own initiative, Gameloft has the right to refuse re-sending the game.
You can not re-download or transfer games which you bought on your old phone (model 1) to the new phone (model 2), because we produce each game-build for one particular phone to ensure the best quality and to prevent piracy. If you want to have games on your new phone, I'm afraid you will have to buy them again.
Sorry for the inconveniences. If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Best regards, -------------------------------Deepesh Mohan Customer Care Agent http://www.gameloft.com/"
great way to prevent piracy...
not!
Yeah, i don't like Gameloft and this is a good reason to not buy anything from them. They won't change their policy as long as customers are "fine" with it.

Yah, seems increasingly like in the name of "piracy" (think DRM) the paying user is the one that gets hurt the most.
Honestly, I'm not going to cry over a few dollars, but I'm very shocked that they are taking this stance. All they had to do to keep me happy was very simple, but yet they still refused. To me that's a smack in the face.
I don't think they believe in good customer service. Even the customer service person replied somewhat apologetically that they do not offer refunds.
Had purchased the Adventures of Tintin game for the SGS2, then upgraded to the Note about 1 month after the purchase, only to find out the game was incompatible. When the game was first released, there were no indications that it was not compatible with any devices. To a not very techie layperson, it would make sense for a game that runs on tablets--the ipad reportedly has it--to run on a phone too.
Because of this incident, I'm thinking of boycotting their games, not that they're that fantastic to the fairer gender anyway!
This is why ios wins, I'm niether an apple fan boy nor android fan boy and please nobody hate on me but I love my android phone and all but you cannot deny that apple basically is an efficient OS wise, you would never have such issues on apple devices. Don't get me wrong android has its perks with a variety of phones designs and brands but honestly I think iOS is the best mobile operating system out there. And don't get me started about their app store or iTunes, unlike android you wouldn't need to trouble yourself rooting and downloading market enabler just so you can enjoy the us version of the app store, isn't a pain when you need to do in apply purchases
Bottom line ANDROID needs to upgrade their market together with ICS update
Composed on my Samsung Galaxy Note using XDA Premium app
"because we produce each game-build for one particular phone to ensure the best quality and to prevent piracy"
That made me laugh! isn't this the perfect way to encourage piracy? As I have said elsewhere, When I purchase any app/game I then find the apk as a backup. It's mine, I paid for it, and I will bloody well do what I want with it other than sharing. That's my 'policy'
To use the app you bought you have to prove every time again that you are using the app on the same device that bought the app. Every time they check your phone id, your phone number, your market account, your exact gps position.
Soon they will require that you use the app on the same phone, same network provider, same market account, same phone number, same country, and maximum 50 km distance from the gps position you had when you bought the app.
Not joking.
Not the story they told me when I bought a few games few months ago. When I enquired that I was soon going to buy another phone and asked if I buy games if I can get the game on my new phone like on the Android market, they said yes. Don't remember if I called them our asked on their website. Haven't yet had time to get the apk off my old phone and pt it in my new phone.guess my games that I bought won't work on my new note too contrary to what was told to me by them. In that scenario if they deliberately gave me wrong information then I will find other ways to play the game I legally bought.
I am about to port my number to another mobile provider guess they will now try to block the games I bought on my note.isn't that a restrictive trade practice preventing customers from changing mobile providers. Obviously the New network will give me a new Sim card even when they port my number.

I also kept the apk I downloaded and it is labelled as compatible for a "Droid X." Howver, 2 of the 3 I bought worked on my Note. So there is still a chance your games will work, but I can't say for sure.
Somebody please tip the XDA crew about this and maybe they'll put it on the Portal. I had no idea that they could refuse re-download if you change your phone and I think the news need to be spread so that we can decide if we want to buy software from such companies or not. I always liked to pay for Android software since I know I'll be able to use it long term... I wont buy Gameloft games anymore, that's for sure.

they said there is nothing they can do cause the game is not compatible with note....WTF dont think it takes that much to update n7000 in the program so it recognizes it as a hd product and download.... ah well....its this kind of service and attitude that leads people to torrents.....you wont support what i bought then will download it will the additional files....
I downloaded apps from Samsung (gameloft) and saved the APK from my SGSII (like Dead Space) and installed it on my note, and it worked fine.

I am writing what they can do with all the data they collect. But it is not so unlikely to happen. For example on phone networks they check whether a phone moves too far too soon (last position in Paris, 3 minutes later in Berlin, 2 minutes later in Rome) to find phone hackers. Since many apps are collecting your gps position and getting again your gps position when you start the app again...
It will be easy to give you a geographically restricted license. For example a free license only for clients with GPS position in Europe.
Or the app costs 5$ for US clients, 5 euro for EU clients, 5 Hong Kong dollars for HK clients and to enforce that, the US license can only be used inside the US.
I "bought" some apps from the Samsung app store for free.
I denied to show my phone ID, like you.
Now some of them will not start because:
1) i do not allow them to check my phone ID to verify my free license
2) if i allow them to check my phone ID, they do not have in their records that my phone ID bought the free app, so I must be a criminal.
We must INSTALL LBE PRIVACY + DROIDWALL to stop this nonsense, before it is too late and this becomes a standard procedure.
Honestly the only other way I'd buy again is if all my purchases stayed linked to my Google account. But, God forbid that mean less profit for Gameloft.

Well .... they did this with PC games & DVDs quite happily. When I migrated to Oz, all my UK games and DVDs would not work on Australian PCs / DVD players. How that for a massive rip-off?

DRM causes more piracy than it could ever prevent. One crack, one upload, millions of pirates.
Fact of digital life.
Just wanted to share what has happend to me. I purchased about $15 worth of credits to use with Modern Combat 3. Things went good for a week or so and then my MC3 game just kept telling me my phone was not compatible and wouldnt load the game. So after clearing cache and trying a few other things I figured the best thing to do would be to uninstall and reinstall the game to see if that fixed the problem. Only to discover that after I had done everything found all my in app purchased credits gone even though I made a backup of my data, save files, etc and restoerd them back to the game.
I emailed GL and this was the reply:
Gameloft Customer Care to me
show details 5:01 AM (3 hours ago)
Hello!
Thank you for your letter to Gameloft Customer Care.
I'm very sorry for what has happened.
Could you please provide me with more detail about your issue?
Unfortunately, when you redownload the game, the in-app purchases are not saved. As we do not have a technical ability to return the in-app purchases, points or weapons, I can only offer you 3 free games to compensate you the charges.
In order to see the games compatible with your phone model, please, type Gameloft in the search engine of your wap browser and you'll be re-directed to the page with the games available for your device.
Please, write me back the names of the games you'd like to get, the exact model of your phone and your complete mobgile phone number with the country code.
Waiting for your reply.
Best regards,
So granted they are offering me $15 in 3 free games, truth is I have all the games I want from them, but still they are trying to compensate me. But again I would rather have my credits, guns, etc back. Sorry for the long post but wanted to share this with others so they do not get into the same situation as me.
Gameloft have some really good games, Although they need to start using Android market, Until they do or some how save your purchases I'm not going to buy that much gameloft games.
But Gameloft said their stats, weapons and cash is saved via their servers (through Gameloft LIVE).
You seem to have gotten lucky, my experiences with their support didn't even go that well.

You're right. However, you would get your money back if you contacted Apple or BB or Google play or Amazon. I purchased Asphalt7 for my blackberry z10. After I reinstalled it, my in-game credits disappeared. I emailed Gameloft but they didn't answer my email. I contacted BB customer service and explained my case. BB gave me a full refund including in-game credits.
I purchased wild blood for HTC One. Of course, I paid for in-game credits too. Google gave me a full refund after emailing them and telling them that I didn't like to submit any documentation for their verification.
Didn't Google Play changed the Policy about inapp purchases?...
I think any inapp purchase will be handled by Google instead of the Dev.

Gameloft is the new EA...
So I posted about Asphalt 6 and DH2 not working, Gameloft nicely sent me Hero of Sparta and Backstab for my trouble.
Backstab installs and then when you try to download the data on first run it says it has a problem and can't download. It loops through that till you give up.
Hero of Sparta straight out won't install, not their fault, its because of the pre-installed demo that you can't delete because its a system app!
Of course HoS could be fixed if I could root my A500, but I've been having problems running AfterOTA to root it because it won't flash a kernel for some reason, nvflash keeps giving an error 0x120002 saying the partition table is invalid.
Is this just Gameloft sucking or is there maybe something wrong with my Tablet? I bought it refurbished from Acer.
Gameloft is sucking, however you can root it by installing a rom with superuser pre-installed. There are plenty of tutorials here ranging from Honeycomb to ICS. Once installed you are rooted and can uninstall the pointless apps. There is an application out there that downloads Gameloft data for you if you have trouble doing so on your device, i forget what it's called, but i suggest looking that up.

Once installed you are rooted and can uninstall the pointless apps. There is an application out there that downloads Gameloft data for you if you have trouble doing so on your device, i forget what it's called, but i suggest looking that up.

I managed to get root, unfortunately my A500 is having problems with flashing kernels etc. It just wont do it may need to downgrade and upgrade again. I got Hero of Sparta working at least.
EDIT: And the version of Hero of Sparta the sent me is the same as the damn demo version that came with the tablet!!!! WTF
EDIT2: Tried an external program to download the Backstab HD game data, it points to a file on the server that does not exist! I can only download game data for Samsung phones, the Sony/acer/motorola/etc data is not there.
Emailed them back they sent me the same thing and Gangstar Rio. So so far I have gotten 5 games out of this mess, but only 1 works and its a demo!
That's why Im not buy gamelot stuff I have them almost all and working well in my a500 from a site that have them cooked.
Yeah, that's why Gameloft sucks. I have bought two games from them right when i got my tablet, through that app that was on our tablet. Two months later ran into problems, cs wouldn't help because they could not track where i bought it from.

I bought HoS some time ago and it used to work perfectly fine, but after about a year, the game started to give me only two options upon boot: upgrade or exit. Upgrade always failed, so the game would only force me to exit.
Long story short (seriously) , I contacted Gameloft and they told me that HoS is not compatible with the A500. I argued with them about this because 1) the demo comes on the tablet, 2) I bought the game because their website SAID it was compatible at the time, 3) the game used to work, and 4) I contacted Gameloft in the past because I lost the game's download link, and they sent me a link to the A500 version of the game (it even says Acer A500 in the filename) without any problems.
Despite all of this, they continued to tell me that the game is NOT compatible and that I need to check compatibility before I make a purchase (as if I were stupid!).
So, what actually happened is that Gameloft decided that our tablet is no longer good enough for HoS. In addition, when a game update comes out, the game is programmed to FORCE you to update or else you cannot play the game at all. So somewhere along the line, an update was released that made the game incompatible with the A500.
I highly discourage anyone from buying games from Gameloft. A game may work now, but in the future, they may drop your device and you just end up buying something you cannot use. The company is complete $h!+ in not only the quality of their games, but also in their completely unethical business practices. They are more interested in getting your money and less interested in whether or not you are able to continue to use their products in the future.

Sadly Splinter Cell has been removed by Gameloft in fact almost all android Gameloft games from that era have been removed. There has been no update to the titles to even work on modern devices, like the powerful Nexus 7 and it's second incarnation (my favorite tablet BTW it has the brightest screen and most DPI and best colors over any any hand held device. Full 1080p). But a side gem idk if your a id software fan but Darkplaces (a modern Quake engine that been being built for years now) has been ported to android and iOS. Darkplaces allows Quake games to be played with normal mapping and full dynamic lighting. You can even load alot of mods (smoke, fog, rain, particle flame efx) you might have lying around straight into the engine. The author has also ported Doom 3 which looks very nice on the Nexus 7 2013 ed. And FYI in case you didn't know with the Nexus 7 (both versions) you can grab a OTG cable for 5 dollars on amazon and play your games with a Xbox controller, and the Nexus 7 2013 ed you can plug it into your HD TV and use it as a monitor. Makes me want to throw my Xbox out in the street. Darkplaces and Doom 3 can found on the Google market place. No Splinter Cell has had me bummed for a few years now. But hopefully this will provide some pretty entertainment in its place.

Alternatively there is "Onlive" for android let's you play new high end games on any android device. I use it on my old 2010 phone. Its like stream but instead of downloading game files it simply streams the audio and video to your device. I can't remember if Splinter Cell Conviction is still one of its playable games but it was at one time. You can download it for free and even watch other players live around the world playing titles like Batman or Darksiders. Keep in mind you have to pay for subscription but feel free to see if they have titles you like play demos to check to see if your internet can handle the data. Cause you need a good solid net connection if your looking for Xbox or PlayStation quality graphics. Hope these post help ya out.
