Oh....that makes sense. In essence I'd only be changing the output to trick the app into thinking it's installed on the correct phone...Now my question is this: How can I( or where can I find the)patch "X" game to work on the Nook Color? I'm pretty sure I can get Shadow Guardian working with that.

I've also experienced the wierdest uses ever recently - I recently installed Nova HD 3.5.0 and the first boot up worked flawlessly, and I played for hours. However, whenever I tried to go back to the game after escaping, the game would tell me that my phone "...is incompatible with that version and I should ask for a refund." Afterwards, it'd get to the Gameloft screen and FC. Eventually it just disappeared from my app drawer. It took a total of 7 uses for this to happen.

The same thing happened with a few other apps I'd downloaded earlier.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] neoage:
Just an Update:

I got Unchar....I mean, Shadow Guardian working on the Nook Color! it sometimes lags, but it doesn't affect gameplay.

Chainfire 3D helps increase performance with the game, but it's not necessary - the game runs fine.

I believe there's only one Samsung Galaxy Tab/S version, which is the one I installed.

Sacred Odyssey, surprisingly, doesn't need all that - just install the tab version and download the cache manually. (google glzip)

Modern Combat 2 3.0.8 also worked flawlessly, though the gameloft folder was from the droid x cache. I don't know how it worked, but it's running smoothly in full screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Alex_32571:
I'm running Shadow Guardian no problem at 1.3ghz. Cm7 latest nightly.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DrSarcasmo:
OK, got Shadow Guardian working with djman's apk...looks great so far...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DrSarcasmo:
Whoops...spoke to soon...the game freezes up 20 seconds into the intro video. Do I need an IMEI number to get this going? I installed the Galaxy Tab version...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RASTAVIPER:
Both SD and SO play fine to my NC without IMEI hack or other settings.

For SD I needed CF though.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DrSarcasmo:
I got Backstab running by changing my build.prop to think it is a Galaxy Tab. Worked fine. Checking Shadow Guardian now. I also ran Dizzy's IMEI patch, just in case...

I am so sick of Gameloft's draconian DRM. I bought Dungeon Hunter HD for my Droid X and it ran beautifully. Why the hell can't they support the Nook? I'm willing to give them money, but with all these insane hoops I gotto jump through, my goodwill towards them is wearing thin...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] aaronbutton:
Great thread with some great info, It seems to be getting quite long though and hard to navigate. It would be great if the op could be changed to show the games and versions people have had working. I have noticed with spider man that the intro.mp4 sends the screen crazy, this is also true if you play it directly from the folder however if you run it in portrait it plays fine. I haven't had a chance to look yet but perhaps a config file could be edited. I once edited a opera browser file to boot in landscape, hide the status bar and the java navigation buttons for a LG viewety.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
I added the games/version #s to post #2 but sadly the OP is MIA. Are you getting spiderman to play full screen? The problem most of us have had is that it only fills half the screen (even with compatibility off) and the buttons are offset.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nee_vak:
I was able to get NOVA2 working but it was too low res (think it was moto milestone version). The market version just outright rejected and said unsupported, probably just needs build prop edit
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] quepaso:
So is IMEI absolutely needed for these to work? I havent run into anything that has needed IMEI yet, and i like to keep the system running lean and clean so i never installed it, although i'd really like to try out Lets Golf 2.

Also, are there any downsides to installing a IMEI?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Jotokun:
I've been able to get NOVA 2 running full screen with the Galaxy S version (I think). Its unplayable as is (Framerate wise) but have ChainFire 3D set to 16-bit textures and it works at a surprisingly decent speed. Drains the battery VERY fast though, and I"m convinced it damaged my nook (went from 6-8 hour average to 4-6 hour average). Not much I can do there though. For that reason I've uninstalled it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RASTAVIPER:
My working apk for Shadow Guardian is 1.02.

But only after I installed Chainfire it worked.

Sent from Nook Color on Phiremod 6.3 @1.3Ghz
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Hmm, was the milestone version only filling half the screen or did it just look pixellated? Did you try compatibility mode?

There's a possibility your device and someone else's could have the same IMEI (since we're creating them randomly) but that probably won't cause any problems. It shouldn't affect performance at all since it's just a number that some apps check when starting. You don't really need it with hacked .apks because they all have their IMEI checks removed.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] martian21:
Actually DizzyDen adds two zeros to the start of the IMEI number which indicates it is a test number to avoid the possibility of overlapping a 'real' IMEI number so this should not be an issue.

Really there is no downside to adding an IMEI other than the time it takes to do it (which is hardly any thanks to Dizzy!). The only possible downside would be if certain app vendors don't take kindly to us adding an IMEI to a non-phone device and start making things difficult (ie. disabling test numbers or something) but thus far that doesn't seem to be the case. In fact Swype changed their policy to specifically

allow

WIFI only devices (ie. devices that don't have an IMEI number).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
You could still be sharing an IMEI with another nook user...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] martian21:
This is technically true since the program truncates the last digit of the serial number. There could in theory be up to 10 shared numbers but the chances are pretty slim.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] quepaso:
Got IMEI installed and now my Uno HD i purchased starts but the screen is small, im not sure which version i got. This is all too confusing. Gameloft really needs to standardize all of this.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Did you try turning off compatibility mode? That's step one for small screen issues(though it doesn't always resolve it).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] quepaso:
Yes, i had to do that for my Tigerarcade MAME emulator, which btw, is now pulled off of the market =(
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] BradHP:
I got Eternal Legacy running perfectly on my NC (the same Desire/Bravo patched version I have on my EVO), but it's in a tiny little window on the top. Is there any way to get it full screen? Some option or tweak I'm missing? Running Phiremod 6.3.

EDIT: Don't know how I missed that post right above me about compatibility mode, so where do I find that?

I had been able to make Spiderman : Total Mayhem the Galaxy Tab version work perfectly on CM 7.0.3 but after I have upgraded to CM 7.1 RC1 it doesn't start at all (simply goes back to the homescreen).

Any ideas on how could I make it work again :). Currently I am happily engrossed in PvZ, iRunner and Samurai II !!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Download an android app called "spare parts" there's a setting to "compatibility mode" you will have to hit it several times to get it to stick (don't know why, it just doesn't work if you tap it once and then try to play a game).

Thanks, I'll add that to the list on the first page. Do you know which version # you got to work? Did you restore it with Titanium or did you reinstall it? I would try reinstalling it in case there's some settings change that it doesn't like between 7.0.3 and 7.1
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sensboston:

OK, thanks! Will try.

P.S. Hmm, seems like I said "Thanks" too early... Are you sure that version (3.2.8) of "GT Racing Motor Academy HD" really exists? Google have no idea except cached first message from that topic (I believe it's just a mistype...) Could you share how do you run v 3.1.8 on NC/CM7?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Yup, i'm looking at the info screen on my NC right now. GT Racing: Motor Academy VERSION 3.2.8

That version apparently also works on the SGS2. I'm not seeing it on google either (other than this and the SGS2 thread). I'm at work right now, I'll see if I can be more helpful once I get home and access some websites that work blocks.

Sorry for bump, but i finally (after like 2 days of screwing with different .apks) Found the Asphalt 6 that works with autonooter v1.2. It SHOULD also work with CM7, but I haven't tested it yet, so be aware. I couldn't find where I downloaded it from, but I have attached it for convenience, considering it took me 2 days to find. It's version 3.2.2 for the Galaxy S. And for some reason, it does NOT give the "Device Not Supported" error.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
You have to take that down, it's the apk to a paid game.

And thanks for letting us know that v3.2.2 Galaxy S works. I already have the xperia version running on mine but it would be nice not to have to use CF3d. I added that version to the list of working .apks on the first page.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renocivik:
It is nothing.. location service is part of the "google experience" as far as i know... personalized search results... for example.. when you open the browser and it goes to the google home page.. if you allow location service it will show your approx location (for relative search results) .. also location service can be used for google maps.. when GPS is disabled it may use the location service to triangulate your approximate location based on reception between towers...

I am not 100% sure if i am correct... location service may be used for both things i mentioned.. or only one of them.. heck.. maybe neither.. but i saw no one replied.. and i thought i would give it a go :)

I know you can go to settings and disable most of the location service options...

I hope nothing happened here, but my Inspire just slid off the back of the couch and feel about 3' onto a lightly carpeted wood floor. No scuffs or screen damage, but suddenly my signal strength seems to be in the crapper. However that could just coincide with AT&T twaddling around with expanding their 4G coverage. So I'm wondering if it's just my imagination, or do I have a problem to worry about?
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Check to see if the SIM cover isn't cracked. If im not mistaken, the antenna is located there and the wifi antenna is located on the battery cover. Try to remove and reinsert the SIM cover to see if that helps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ah_hin:
No worries there, I just dropped my phone to the concrete floor from 4ft...

It landed with its corner, and spun a few times.... (horrible sight to see)

phone still functions, screen didn't crack (although there is a very tiny nick on the screen which I can't really see after I put on a new screen protector, the old one is messed up, of course), and everything works, just that there are some minor scuffs on the phone now :(

I gotta say, this phone is well built, and if this had happened to my old Touch Pro.... man, the phone will be gone already.

[HTC Inspire 4G] BillTheCat:
Thanks for the replies. Turns out everything is alright. Must have been a problem with the tower that happened to coincide with the drop.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Talderon:
I had ill effects after a slight drop and it turned out to be a bad SIM card. I went to the AT&T store, they pulled it out, put it in their tester, came up with an error, swapped me out and I was out the door in less than 5 minutes.

With all the years we have had AT&T, I still can't see where people have room to complain about "bad customer service". We have yet to see it and have this account with 5 lines for 5+ years.

Oh well... :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Roland_D:
Well the bad customer service isn't when they exchange you a .003 dollar defective sim card... it is when they sell you a '4G' phone that is 3G............ :rolleyes:
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
At least they don't sell you a 4g phone and charge extra every month for it when the nearest 4g is 100 miles away.

They all have their issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] shawn1224:
I've had plenty of drops although my inspire is protected with an Otterbox Commuter. Not a single scratch, only thing is that it unseats my SD card on occasions so I have to pull off the case & cover and push it back in. A minor annoyance but well worth it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] FLAC Vest:
Just to play devil's advocate, how are they to know where you live? I have been to many different ATT stores that aren't in my town.

As for the address showing up in their system, I'm listed at my house but I currently live 355 miles away at college; they can't just take your word or assume you know?

Nome the less, I would hate to be charged for 4G.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I haven't used Bluetooth recently, but as an option you could also put the Bluetooth widget in the strip of notifications power widget, available when you pull the notification bar down. More convenient than on the in-call screen anyway.

Configure what widgets are present and what order they're presented in here -> Settings/CyanogenMod settings/Interface/Notification power widget

From there choose "Widget buttons" to choose what widgets to show, and "Widget button order" to change what order they're shown in.

Hint: If you unchoose all the notification power widgets from the "Widget buttons" menu, and then re-choose only the ones you want and in the order you want them, you won't have to re-order them in the "Widget button order" menu.
