Order & Chaos is working!

[Rik064]

Finally some good news... O&C Online 1.03 does work on the Transformer, and you don't even need a root this time. It's just works! So go ahead, buy it from the market or from their site, or get the apk somewhere else - just know, that now this game officially works on the Transformer (well, not officially, but it works ).

******************************************

Bad news... I have a 1.02 backup, but it does not work my way anymore. Either gameloft followed us or something is wrong with my version. I'll tell if there is any change ASAP.

******************************************

Right now the 1.01 versoin is no longer working because there was a global update of the game, so right now this guide is useless. I will update this post as soon as there will be a working 1.02 version.

******************************************

If you want to play Order & Chaos from Gameloft on your Transformer (or any tegra tablet), I have a good news for you. But you MUST BE ROOTED.

Here is what you should do:
1. Delete game data, game itself and cache. Don't worry, all your characters will be there later (if you have any)
2. Download cache from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PKUX3Y1B and put it into /gameloft/games/
3. Next download backup of the game. Since it is not allowed to post any apk here, you will have to find BACKUP of the 1.01 device-free version of the game and restore it with Titanium backup (thats why you must be rooted). To do that unpack the rar file into "Titanium backup" folder and then find Order & Chaos in TB itself and restore APP+DATA.
*Why you can't simply install apk? - becouse it will say, that your device isn't supported.
4. Enjoy!

Follow those steps and everything should work! No random FC's or problems with multitouch!

I hope it helps see you in a game

P.S. Sorry for my english

Really?

To the poster above... is this really warez? You have to purchase the game in order to have gametime to play it and also purchase gametime. Is getting a game to work on our device really a bad thing? I guess maybe I don't understand the rule breaking on this one.

 

[deanhatescoffee]

Warez not welcome. Mod close plz.

This isn't warez, it's a workaround. I've legally purchased Order & Chaos on another Android device, and I'd love to be able to play it on my Transformer. Since the game doesn't officially support the Transformer yet and I'm willing to take the risk to not only root but also install a third party app that may or may not actually work, I think the judgement for this thread referenced here should be saved for the individual user, not simply labeled as warez and closed. This is a developers forum, after all, where we tend to push the boundaries of our devices. And, since the APK wasn't linked, there's really no foul here; just one geek sharing his experiences with fellow geeks.

 

[Backwardsblade]

As long as we're not circumventing that initial purchase and just providing a workaround I think could be fine. I retract that post if thats the case.

I tried this but I still get "your device is not supported please request a refund". I tool the v1.0.1 backup off my thunderbolt and retored it through TB but I dont think the cache you provided is being used. Please Help

How do I unpack the apk into TB's format? I renamed the extension to .zip from .apk and the contents of the zip look nothing like TB's files (.gz and .properties files)

Edit: Looks like installing it on my XT720 and backing it up from there, then moving the files over to the TF worked!

 

[twill713]

I got it to work just fine, you have to use the version that is for all devices. Now that it is working how do i go about paying for it so that the account i sue doesn't get banned. In the market it says its not compatible with my device so it wont even let me purchase it and its not even sold on the Gameloft site.

 

[igot6strings]

Can someone post a backup? Also, would this method work with Nova??

Can You Tell Me which Files you moved and to were.

 

[twill713]

Well I thought I had mine working but the Version I had was 1.0.0 All Device version and it seems to start and asks to download a 159 mb patch but after character creation i walk around for a few and then get FC. So i must need the 1.0.1 All Device version which i can not seem to find.

 

[ice0901]

I can get 1.0.0 installed but, It does FC every few min. 1.0.1 installs on the xoom just fine as I confirmed today on a friends tablet and the same goes for the Iconia. For some reason we get the device not compatible error on the Transformer.

This may not help many, but I have a ipod and bought the game that way.
Setup a subscription, i could then log in to game on my TF.
I know this doesn't help those without a IOS device but it is one way to get a subscription.

 

[ice0901]

I have a subscription as well through my thunderbolt but v1.0.0 will crash every few min on the transformer. V1.0.1 is stable on honeycomb but will not install on the transformer.

Guys, as I have said, you need A BACKUP of the 1.01 device free version, not an apk, not an apk renamed to zip (did I tell you to do that? ) and not a backup or apk from your phone (unless it is device free version).

Also, if you did everything right, on first start it SHOULD NOT ASK TO DOWNLOAD ANY CACHE. Not even 156 mb, as somebody mentioned here.

And if you want me to help you to deal with it, write me a PM, it's realy hard to follow your questions

 

[twill713]

After acquiring a backup copy of 1.0.1. I placed it in the TitaniumBackup folder put the cache files in the gameloft/games/ folder and have been playing without FCs. Game screen is the correct size and there are no touchscreen issues.

Thanks a ton for finding this Rik064

 

[tangomonky]

If only I could figure out a way to purchase this game and install it so I can then back it up with titanium!

 

[ghostfaceg35]

Wow this is perfect. The game not only doesn't force close but it fits perfectly on the screen. Awesome!

 

[thesilverhawk]

can someone PLEASE pm me where i can find a device free verison, I want to gt this to work but I am having trouble locating this version. THANKS!

 

[deanhatescoffee]

I just got done playing Order & Chaos on my Transformer for two hours. It worked perfectly - no FCs, no weird issues with the top of the screen being cut off, and no issues with touch inputs being off. Here are some more detailed instructions on how to get it set up:

1) If you've previously installed Order & Chaos then you'll need to delete *all* traces of it, including the installed app and the cache in /gameloft/games (delete the folder called "GloftMMHM").

2) Download the game cache in from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PKUX3Y1B . Use an app like Androzip to extract the downloaded .rar file to /gameloft/games .

3) Time to download the Titanium Backup backup of Order & Chaos 1.0.1. It's Google time. This is the hardest part of the entire process. It helps if you can read Russian as, apparently, Russian forums are much more lax in what they can publicly post. If you can't find the backup file, PM me with your email address.

4) Once you have the Titanium Backup backup, use Androzip to extract the file's contents to /TitaniumBackup .

5) Install the game. To start, open Titanium Backup. Hit Menu, then Batch. Go down to where it says "Restore all apps with data" and hit the [Run] button. Unselect all apps except Order & Chaos. Hit the [Run the batch operation] button at the top of Titanium Backup. Install finished.

6) Check the main Apps menu to make sure Order & Chaos was installed successfully. It should open right up. Enjoy!
If you open Order & Chaos and see a message that says the game is not compatible with your device then you skipped a step. Uninstall the game, then delete the cache in /gameloft/games , then try this process again.
