Multi User and Games - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to install certain games on a secondary user.
I want to have a separate user for my son to play games on. The user is set up fine and Angry Birds and Cut the Rope installed across both with no issues. We have different game going and all is fine.
Tried gameloft games like Asphalt 7 and no luck. I can install Asphalt in second user but as soon as I try to play it on main user, the original crashes on user 2.
This is regardless of whether it is still running. Dungeon Raider just loops at the opening screen. Anyone had any luck with these larger games and multi user?

How to Get them Working again.
All games are now working, thanks info on Clearing the data.
To get them working again I uninstall every game using the clear data button first, then reinstalled each game and now there are all working, again.
Thanks bro, you're a savior...

Sorry for upping this topic but I think my question can help to clarify one thing: Does this operation keep the "saved game data" or will we have to start the game from the beggining? Thanks in advance...

Gameloft lagg fixed

Hello this is my first post, i made it because i read these forums everyday and i been looking for a fix to my Gameloft lagging problems. Ex. Dungeon Hunter 2. Idk if someone has already posted this if so i'm sorry, i found that if you download the "hd" version of Gameloft games on play they will lag ALOT. Even if like me you have no bloatware and 280mb ram free it will lag like hell. But if you download the non "hd" version of any Gameloft game( as i tryed) so far no lag at all. Dungeon Hunter 2 lagfree, Modern Combat 3 no lag, and Order & chaos lagfree.
So for those having problems like me with lag try the non "hd' ones should fix your lag. again sorry if this has already been covered. and for those who have "hd" and have no lag well your lucky.
nvm i noticed alot of the non hd ones they dont show on there store anymore i got mine from... yea
where to find these non hd versions?
The way i found some is i noticed on andriid market some are non hd like order &chaos or mc3 you can tell cause you wont see hd in picture, as for dh2 you need to do some Google. For some reasin gameloft site dosent show non hd ones but andriod market does for some
This is absolutly stupid. The versions are not different. If evan if they would be , they would allways render only on the screen resolution never higher. So evan if some games sopprt higher resolution, that does not make a difference.
Also gameloft names HD not becouse of the resuloution but becouse of the qualety. The non HD games loook more like J2ME Games and are playable on low end phones.
On some games (MC3) Gameloft never made gave the name HD or they include a HD and a non Hd Version (Tintin).

You have to start all over again as it's a clean install, just install and download all your apps and games again.

thanks, but well i am not able to open the android market ,so how should i download the games? and even the browser doesnt work says 'unfortunately the browser has stopped'......
Please be aware that Sony is specifically asking for feedback on this and has a format that they request you put your games reports in (see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571463). I think that making the list here (and not in the Dev thread) is great but it would help Sony too if you also make sure that the reports conform to their format.
I'm posting this because if it's just a list of games that work well, I'd be worried that people will run to the games that work and in the process stop testing the other games...which doesn't help Sony diagnose game issues before a real release.
I use a backed up asphalt 6 apk and the same game files and Asphalt works but it's ugly, there are red lines where there should be drift marks and there are lots of other red lines everywhere but the game is playable.

gedeROM Game/app Compatibility List

I can't seem to get any gameloft games besides 9mm to play. tried about half of them and they crash on boot or won't finish
downloading from gameloft servers due to some error(checked my wifi no problems).
Is there some sort of compatibility list for KF and ICS for games or apps??
If not making one would be cool so people could avoid wastin time downloading **** that doesn't work(like me)
GT Free+ HD works fine.
UNO (Kindle Fire version from Amazon App Store) works fine when restored from Titanium Backup. UNO from the Play store runs, but doesn't work well (touchscreen issues)
I haven't been able to get Asphalt 6 to work (KF version from Amazon store restored from Titanium Backup, nor the Google Play store version)
Shrek Kart (Kindle Fire version from Amazon) doesn't work either from Titanium Backup.
That's all I've tried so far.
KF running gedeROM v1.45
I got Nova 2 HD to work but theres issues with the touchscreen locking inputs in
(aim left and it continues to wave or shoot and doesn't stop)just pausing the game
and unpausing resets it so its not that bad.
Counter strike and Minecraft work too.
The games I have tried haven't been from either store.. torrented them.
Guess I'll start tryin different sources and different Versions and post'em if i get lucky
EDIT::::: I think It might have something with the tablet thinking its a galaxy nexus and the
versions of the apk aren't really compatible with it. Do all versions of ICS show KF as a Galaxy nexus
or do they differ from which ICS was ripped from????
Has anyone had any luck with game console emulators, such as NESoid, SNESoid, N64oid, etc? I tried them last on Hashcode's vanilla release, but they failed to load ALL game roms. I haven't had the chance to try them yet on gedeRom, but I expect the same results since all ICS roms for the Kindle Fire are still in early development.

No, just this ROM masquerades the Kindle as a Galaxy Nexus. Others, like Hashcode's, show it as a Kindle Fire.

Dungeon Hunter 2 crashes after the opening cinematic, even the GTP1000 version which works for CM7. Such a shame. DH3 is boring as hell.
I've just tried NESoid and SNESoid. Both apps work, but when the scaling is set to "Stretched" and used in the landscape orientation everything is extremely blurry. Even the on-screen gamepad controls are blurred. It looks fine in the portrait orientation though. I'm not sure what's causing this...
EDIT: I was going to take a screenshot of the blurry screen to post here, but the screenshot is not blurry at all. So strange...

I can't ever get Asphalt 6 to work. Did you have to do any kind of build.prop changes? Do you have to use Chainfire3D with it? If so, what settings/plugins do you use and did you use the free or pay version? Thanks.

You have PvZ working in ICS? I've only gotten it to work in GB, what version are you using? For me, it works for about 30 seconds then freezes, which is common for ICS from what I could gather in the PvZ forums.
I am using gederom 1.55, with stock build.prop (ie galaxy nexus).
Works great for me, love that game!
No chainfire.
To the other guy, PvZ is fine on ICS, i dont play it often, but it worked for 1 game on same rom as above. Dunno, ive never had problems, just make sure you use powervr APK. If the market has problems, there is something wrong with the ROM i presume.
Hope ive helped!

You need Chainfire3D to run Tegra optimized games on Non-Tegra devices.
Anyone know if worms works?

[ Discussion]-The one game you always go back to.

This isn't a ratings topic or a top whatever topic...This is a topic of what game you just can't get enough of. Don't get me wrong there's a lot of great games out there. I'm curious of the diversity of the crowd/ XP community.
For me...its Minecraft. I started playing it on android & after uninstalling to check out other games, I always bring it back. I like how smooth it runs. Its the one game that I have truly never had a problem with...but enough about my choice.
R800x-unlocked/ Aokp-m6/ 4.0.4
Im with you, always have installed minectaft, for me the best sandbox game.

MMMMMMMMMMinecraft!
And Asphalt 7, but since i do development of roms, i mainly change roms so i dont stick with much gamez.
Being a classic gamer, I bought my xperia play mainly for emulators. The first console game I ever owned was Sonic 1 for the master system. Even these can always pick that up and not get bored
I found that the xperia play is great with NES and GBA emulators, maybe I'll try to get a SNES one soon as well.
pokemon FTW !!!

My Boy! is my favourite. The UI is tidy and easy to follow. It has the ability to disable linear filtering. Cheat support was included with the latest update. I get full speed in all the games I play without needing to use frameskip.
VGBA has good compatibility but the UI sucks and is battery heavy. Also the developer is employing dirty tricks like preventing people with LP installed from using the app.
GBA.emu you would expect to be good but performs very poorly on the Xperia PLAY and other single core devices. You get lag every 10-15s with frameskip on, and is slow as hell/unplayable with frameskip off.
Gameboid used to be my favourite until My Boy! replaced it. Both Gameboid and My Boy! are similar in the UI and performance. My Boy! is slightly better in both those areas, and seeing as Gameboid is no longer being developed, it made sense to buy My Boy!.
Sonic episodes 1 & 2
I allways go back to them!!
Draw Something... Yea yea yea, make fun of me, I keep uninstalling it because nobody plays it. I always go back to installing it after a few weeks without it because I feel like playing with someone. Nobody plays it anymore, so I uninstall it. Repeat process.
