[HOWTO] Get most Gameloft games compatible with the S4 HTC One X

Gutterball · Jul 17, 2012

Another thing I noticed about this build.prop change is there is no fingerprint change necessary?? wouldn't you need to have the fingerprint of the note values in order to truly emulate the device? Thats how I used to do it on my atrix at least. I used to change my atrix's values into a galaxy s 2 to get games such as backstab working on it.

It works perfectly the way OP instructed. On top of it, once you have the game installed and extra files downloaded, you can revert back to your old build.prop and the game will still work fine. Been playing NOVA 3 this way for a while, it's amazing on the HOX. No clue why Gameloft hasn't released it for us yet.

Just wondering if maybe we could get other games to work by changing that fingerprint??? Thats all.

Tried this fix out on Backstab. its downloading the data so this game should work too.

Although with Dead space for example I can get all the data to downloadgame starts, then crashes so I'll know soon if this will be the story with backstab too or not?..

Some games also have problems with certain roms too. Thats why sometimes changing to another rom can actually get more games visible in the market and running too. Lots of weird crap to try out there!

If it crashes, turn off Wi-Fi while playing the game. It kept crashing for me on Modern Combat 3, so I turned off Wi-Fi, and all was good.

After turning my device into an international one x via build.prop changes. I can now access any tegra2/3 game only problem is now still can't get these games to run?? Dark meadow crashes right away as an example. but they are now all installable on the playstore for me on paranoid android so thats slight progress at least.

I think Dark Meadow has more stringent checks for Tegra, but you may be able to use Chainfire3D to get the others to work.

Tegra games are meant for the Tegra Chipset... they only run on tegra GPUs... use Chainfire 3D or something to get the correct drivers.

Not matter what properties I change, the tablet I have (LePan) 9.8" with ICS 4.0.4, it dosn't work (N.O.V.A 3). I have thrown everything at build.prop and every time I launch NOVA3 it says: YOUR DEVICE IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THIS GAME PLEASE REQUEST A REFOUND

This game used to work with this same tablet, but after I installed a previous cwm backup and later on I did a factory reset, since then I haven't been able to make it run.

Now, the game INSTALLS FINE WITHOUT PROBLEMS. It's just after launching it that gives the message your device is not compatible...

I tried the values posted on Post#1, and also these:

ro.product.model=GT-N7000
ro.product.manufacturer=Samsung
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-N7000
ro.build.description=GT-N7000-user 4.0.4 IMM76D XXLRI release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-N7000/GT-N7000:4.0.4/IMM76D/XXLRI:user/release-keys

And also these values;

ro.product.model=GT-P7500
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-P7500
ro.product.device=GT-P7500
ro.product.board=GT-P7500
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

one XL?

Hi guys,
i got a question: i downloaded nova 3 on my htc One XL but when i start it, it says its Not compatible. Can i edit the build.prop Like rohan said
so that i Can play it? (Its the One xL!)

Pls help

I get weird graphical glitches with dead trigger on cm10 with your kernel and stock cm10 kernel. It seems like an aosp thing because I flashed an aokp, and sense rom and its perfect. Disabling hw overlays fixes it, but then it runs laggy.

Ok question guys,

My device community blows for this kind of support. Let me ask, if I am using an HTC One S with an S4 processor like your processor, can i use this build.prop trick to make gameloft games work? dying to play games like horn and other gameloft games.

edit: actually followed these instructions and am downloading the files for Battlefield 2 right now. i dont know if that falls under the same stuff here but ill let you know what i find out.

hyun18 · Jan 4, 2013

Oooo. I was disappointed after downloading some gameloft games, which took forever, only to find it not starting up at all...
Gon' try this later, too lazy right now. Hope it works ;P
Thanks

most of the games im playing work awesome. GTA3, Lara Croft Guardian of Light, Wildblood, but six guns is a pain in the ass. It will play great right after the initial file download. But whenever i quit the game and go back to it it loads up to the in game screen where i left off and then crashes. any thoughts?

Possible Brick

Hi I did as per the instruction that Rohan has given in the 1st post. But on restart, after reaching the white screen of HTC Quietly brilliant, the phone seems to switch off itself. Tried getting into Bootloader menu by pressing down my power and volume down key, but no avail.

Have I bricked my phone???

Can someone please help me to get out of this. Searched for possible solutions, but couldn't get any.

I have a ViperXL 3.2 ROM.

That's weird... Changing a build.prop shouldn't do this. It shouldn't even boot loop at all.
