use titanium backup to back them up.

Or MyBackup.

I second this. MyBackup Root has always worked painlessly for me. It has a nice interface and I would much rather use it than Titanium.

MyBackup or Titanium backup.
or manually take saves out of shared_prefs in /data/data

I'll check out this "MyBackup" Thanks.

I stopped playing games for this exact reason lol

If NFS shift stops working at some point

So my little nephew loves playing NFS shift on uncle chopper's device and I found it to be pretty neat as well. But after rooting, titanium, clockwork, superuser, and voodoo it stopped working at some point and I'm not sure what step it was. It also asked to be re installed but install would fail. Trying to restore file in titanium failed as well. And copying files from dump did no good. Figured it out though.
Using root explorer delete the 2 files listed below.
/data/data/com.ea.nfss.installer
/data/data/com.ea.nfsshift
And install will work now but it will ask to buy full version again. But that was an easy call to vzw with the I don't know what happened act to get the second charge removed.
Gotta keep the kid happy.
good day.
Interesting. You guys might wanna look at Asphalt5 free in Market. IMO its even better than NFS
Ehhhh. Need for speed is the best racing game out right now for android. Hands down.

Moving Angry Birds achievements

I'm about half way through Angry Birds... is there a way to move unlocked levels data to another phone of mine?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Not sure about moving phones however, i was able to back up the angry birds app with titanium backup, switch roms, and restore the app and all my unlocks and achievements were restored.
Its just a gueas but i would be willing to bet that you could install titanium backup on both phones and back it up. Then put your sd card in your other phone and restore the backup and it should be fine.
Like i saidx its just a guess but it seems to me like it would work.
Hope that helps.

Using titanium backup works. I just did it last night when I received my new evo.
Have you tried using the program "Bump" to move it to another phone?

Bump just transfers the Application, not any of the unlocked levels or achievements

Someone should make a thread with the apks of the Free Games so far.
Has anyone been having problem with this game? The game runs fine, but I keep getting a force close message, even when the game isn't running.
Ive had the same problem with it giving me FC errors even when game not running i uninstalled

I'm getting random FCs as well when the game isn't even running. I did uninstall the crapware that you had to install first though. Not sure if that's related. Game play is decent. Fun little game. I'll keep it around for a bit longer.
I am getting fc's when the phone boots and randomly as well. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, removing the hos folder, removing the gameloft app, ect. Nothing seems to affect the fc's. The game runs but is glitchy starting. Sometimes it won't load, sometimes it will play the opening video then go to black screen and never load the game, occasionally it will load the game to the "touch the screen to continue" but the screen will be completely unresponsive. I did get it to load completely a few time and was able to play a bit. It is fun but the fc's are very anoying. I may keep it thru xmas then uninstall. The other free game from gl earlier this month "dungeon hunter" runs flawlessly.
Epicly posted using the xda app!
I'm getting the same issue. wtf is it doing that its force closing when not running? Is this the reason they are not on the market their apps doing tracking type **** even when not running?
It could be related to the version of the game? I noticed gameloft gives the Epic a different version of their games, the icons do not have the HD high resolution image.
I still have yet to try this game because I haven't downloaded the data package that is required....
Can anyone post a link to download the data package?

Google pulling apps left and right

Did they take out game gripper?
I just got the new psx4droid and was gnnause gamegripper which I thought I had but its not there so I guess I neverdownloaded it, but when I go to the market its not there either
Could it be cuz of the xperia play? I thought it was gonna usher in a nw age of gaming for android but its starting to look like its doing the opposite..

Gamegripper as in the ROM finder app? I have it installed on my phone but you're right, it's no longer on the market. As for the n64 emulator, it was removed due to the dev taking it down to re-release it at a later time (after most bug fixes) due to negative feedback.
It does appear that Google is removing these apps due to piracy of ROMs, though.
EDIT: Spelt 'but" wrong. haha

Kind of hints that Play Station Suite is on the horizon.
According to this thread - http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/com..._to_rom_gripper_has_google_remotely/?sort=hot
The gripper was removed due to the ROM database being offline.
I actually know how to get some of those pulled apps...I can't say the site though because of the apps are warez.
you dont need an app to get roms..
The guy pulled the n64 app to give it an overhaul. Something lik 2 months b4 a release.
As far as Psx4droid goes.. I bought v2 a few days b4 it was pulled. I pulled my apk file b4 flashing a new rom B)

Hence why I back up every apk I actually buy to my SD card with root explorer

i did back it up via TB but for some reason when I had to Restore via CWM because of FC's(another story) TB wouldn't let me restore the App. It has the Data but the app just says"?".
oh well... i guess I'll shoot them an email.

Good idea. My opinion is definitely invest in root explorer. It lets you navigate directly to the data/app folder and you can copy+paste the apk to your SD. Plus it has a remount rw/ro button that beats the hell out of using terminal emulator to do it.

Tab keeps Pausing during Gameplay

Guys,
In need of a bit of advice....
Today I noticed for the first time whenever I play any game about 10 seconds into the game it will pause and the only way to carry on is to 'un-pause' the game.
It then will play for around another 10 seconds then pause again.
I have had a look at what new Aps I have installed but it does not appear to be any of them.
I have rebooted the Tab several times but still it carries on pausing game play by itself.
Any ideas??
Have you tried stock clock speeds
Did you modify your device, whether through rooting or changing your rom? This is the first time I've heard of that problem. O_O

No, nothing modified. Had I altered anything I would hopefully have the answer.
I normally help many but this is the first time I have been stumped.

I would backup everything with titanium, then try with a fresh new rom.

The backup would simply include whatever is causing the issue.
Plus I don't really want to start playing around with the Tab. As a surgeon I have quite an extensive amount of data I need access to and I can not afford to have a Tab that becomes unstable after a ROM chop.
Basically I need to ascertain what is causing the problem just as I would with a patient.
I mean install only one game after the fresh new rom, to see if it's a hardware problem or a software one.

Thanks... but as I said I don't really want to go down the avenue of putting a fresh ROM on my Tab.
I don't have the time to make a backup, do all the ROM update requirements, install Apps one by one, etc. etc.
The Tab is working fine in all other respects.... It just will not play games without dropping into Pause mode.
Any other time I would have done all this myself... I have helped countless others to do this and have walked many a forum member through the procedure so I am fully verse with all the requirements... but time is not a luxury nor is it necessary given the Tab in all other respects works fine.
This is definitely a software issue... that I do know.
Another twist I am noticing..... Not only is the Tab pausing every game you load but some games (Asphalt 5 to name but one) will stop during game play, reload the game then take you to the the screen with options to either continue or exit... in other words it's acting very brutal on games.
But why only on games, that is what is so confusing?
All I need is an idea chaps.... a simple idea to work on.
Thanks.
