How did you get Backstab to work?

And did shadow guardian not lag allot? What settings did you use?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Razer(x):
It doesn't lag for me neither, it lags only in the first 2-3 secs.

Stock settings
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] asheg:
sorry, my bad: u need chainfire3d with enabled qualcomme to make Backstab work, BUT note: device will be very highly heated, though still playable

i have not played much.. ppl says it is still exists much further in game

shadow guardian: game process doesnt lag, but the loading of the game/next map/exit game to main menu/etc take much time (about 1 min) (stock settings)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alecicaletto:
no CF3D? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] asheg:
you know, i can't believe...

on my previous firmware (XWKE7) Backstab and eternal legacy worked without CF3d. yesterday i installed the lastest XXKF2 and here are the problems :(. now eternal legacy doesn't work. gonna try with cf3d

ADDED:

didn't work....... that's crap. U can play it if u have old XWKE7 firmware.

seems like i need to recheck all my installed games.

i will check another version of eternal legacy, hope itll work

Added:

new version eternal legacy 1.0.7 works on xxkf2 :D without cf3d
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] phynios:
Galaxy On Fire was working almost flawlessly for me using CF3D. I did experience the pop-up star thing that some people mentioned, but only on a few occasions. Now though, when I launch GoF, I only get sound, no picture.

This happen to anyone else? Tried playing with settings, removed/reinstalled CF3D but no luck :confused:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alecicaletto:
sadly not on mine

thanks anyways for your tests
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] asheg:
Flash xxkf2 and install 1.0.7 :wink:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] asheg:
what about Backstab... if u cannot load the game try this:

start game, skip video

press X - choose NO, press I - click (down-left) back button (to return to main menu), press settings - click (down-left) back button

press More games - press back 2 times (to return to main menu)

choose continue/new game, CHOOSE slot, hold SWITCH OFF button of the device, choose activate Flight mode (3d in list), in 5-10 sec deactivate it and VERY VERY QUICKLY press continue in the game

it may work, and may not work... worked for me but it is just 4-5 save.. i dunno what will happer farther

shrek kart works just perfect. and i have not got any problems dowloading the data. i can upload the data for u if u would like
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CaesiumX:
Tried this man , not working

I am on first save (where he slide through long walls to get down )

My settings(what i have tried)

-CF3D pro->per app(for backstab) -> load qualcomm(plugin)[Tried other comb also with textures but :mad:

-Sometimes it will play suddenly it freezes and thats it

Neway , the game is one of the best out there

I think when it freezes it dumps the shaders (CF3D) so we need to install modified shaders as chainfire posted for riptide to get it working as of now
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rikz112:
Can someone help with shrek karting hd???
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rikz112:
yes please what do i do with the data tho???

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] seavers11:
I have tried the 1.0.2 with powetvr plugin but i have only graphic glitches ! Using ke7 cognition rom
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jastonas:
I had glitches also. I downloaded different sd files (dont even remember from where). Tried any possible combination of apk's and + sd files (installed 1.0.0 tegra, 1.0.2 powervr, etc).

Play a little, even merge the tegra with the powervr sd files and it might work
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] asheg:

Bad News on BackStab HD

Just a quick warning, some of you are able to play BackStab just fine (ish - V1.15) but some of you may find that the phone will start to heat up real quick and after about a minute it gets too hot to hold, when this happened to me i quickly long pressed the home button and the phone shut down straight away, luckily i pulled the battery and left the phone to cool (it was hot enough to cook on seriously!!!!) Im running an unbranded GS2 with cognition S2 v1.06 XWKE7 and i think im lucky to still have a working phone to be honest so good luck guys and if anyone has a fix or im victim of vicious fail let me know if theres a stable version!

Cheers

Happy Flashing!!

y ive allready said that phone will be very hot. but still playable :P
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Twomorecharacters:
Has anyone tried the new Peggle for android yet? It crashes when I try to open it. Got the apk off the internet though, but it seems we're **** out of luck again.

edit: Searched among the many customer reviews on the amazon app store, didn't find anything for Galaxy s II, but there seems to be problems with the regular Galaxy though.

my friend own Villianrom custom and he said that N.O.V.A. 2 HD and Dungeon Hunter 2 are working for him

if you have that custom firmware, you can try these games :)

p.s. unfortunately didn't work for me on stock xxkf2:(

looks like there is a java version of that game. if u have it u can run java on sgs2 ;)

Samurai II: Vengeance

Asphalt 6

Avatar

They run very smooth on my GS2
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CaesiumX:
Even if it's playable, for every s2 it will be hot as of now , coz the game is not optimized for s2 (specifically for xperia play) less demanding games (hardware wise) for them it's ok we use diff plugins to intercept but games like these n more in coming days will have the same problem

So we need games optimized for our hardware and mali GPU's series is good enough to run *****es like these even more :D

it's just a matter of time
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CarpeDiemsNuts:
Maybe you didnt quite read my post correctly, for SOME people the phone will heat up then SHUT DOWN. And how is this playable again? If your already playing the game without these issues then this clearly doesn't apply to you, its for those who havent tried yet.

Think before you post

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rkaplan2:
Galaxy on Fire 2 works, but has REALLY annoying graphical texture glitches that make me not want to play it. HAWX works, Hero of Sparta works, Splinter Cell Conviction works, and Dungeon Hunter HD works. About to test out Dungeon Hunter 2.

Btw, if anyone could PM me a .apk file version for Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard for me to test, that'd be great. I can't seem to find one, my Google skills have failed.

NOT GOOD

Backbreaker - some corrupted textures, particularly on player model, otherwise ok.

Hardwood Spades - starts up, but cannot read menus, have to exit.

Hardwood Solitaire - as above

No one else getting Peggle to work? A guy a couple of pages back said it's working for him and that he got it off the Amazon app store when it was free, but I've tried apks I find on other places and it doesn't work. Same exact file as the one that's on the app store.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] freakpunker:
Peggle is working fine. If you got the apk from Amazon, is not going to work. It checks if you're signed in to the Appstore, and if you ordered it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CaesiumX:
100% working

1)Use CF3D -> install plugin (power VR)

2)Configure spidermanTMHD with powerVR(If you are using the paid version then go to per APP OpenGL settings settings(otherwise go to default) check your app(spiderman) and load plugin(powerVR)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mi3x:
There is no need to use CF3D with VR. It plays flawlessly without.

Would you mind sharing the settings you used? As in which plugins or shaders or etc. I can't seem to get it to work.

Thanks

Does anyone have StarFront: Collision [Gameloft] working on SGS2? If so I would appreciate a little how to. I managed to run it without Chainfire 3D but after few minutes of playing on KF2 stock rom it freezed and returned to desktop. Lately I rooted my phone and installed Chainfire 3D but havent tried StarFront yet. Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] darkalchemist:
As of KF2, Eternal Legacy works for me on SGS2 (at least, it boots and lets me go in and start the game, start story etc which it wouldn't do on earlier roms). No CF3D installed.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] skibadee:
Hi

Incase anyone has same problem I fixed it. I read somewhere that because the gs2 isn't flat in the back it was best to calibrate face down off the edge of a table.... well this was the cause (doh!)

Calibrated again with the sticking out bit over the edge of my table and face up - all is good :-D

Same story here but after playing half an hour it freezes on loading (keeps loading infinitely at 0% progress no matter how long I leave the phone like that), it does it after I defeat the stone golem (right after I catch up with the guy who stole the crystal before me). Does anyone have a workaround. I tried Chainfire3D but to no avail.

The latest market version of course ?

As for the plugins, its only the 3. And the best thing is to have all of the them.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CarpeDiemsNuts:
I bought Eternal Legacy/Starfront/Shadow Guardian from Gameloft UK's WAP store via paypal as up until a few random games recently Gameloft had pulled most of its Android games for various reasons.

NFS Shift works great, just took copied the gamedata folder from my SGS. And Chainfire 3D with POWERVR plugin. Looks amazing with unroll textures and 16xMSAA.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tuhinz:
Did you try playing Gun Bros for a long time (More than 30 mins?)

It works great for short spells but on two ocassions it kinda hanged. When it does that, the controls stop responding but if you leave the phone alone for ~1 min, it responds again and you can start playing but stops responding thereafter for every 2-3 mins of gameplay(Starts again after ~1 min rest).

When it stops working neither the capacitive buttons nor the home button works unless you keep gnashing them at which point the 'force close' menu usually comes up.

I've also had Ninjump & RoboDefense hang up after random minutes of usage. Robodefense hang was particularly nasty as the app would restart and cause very high cpu usage/ battery drain even after force closing the app. Needed a restart.

Other than that, Angry Birds, Tower Raiders 2, Reckless Racing and other low intensity card/ word games work just fine.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Propergood:
At last.. Looks like Gameloft are adding support for more titles. Dungeon hunter 2 now available from their site (haven't bought it though so not certain it will run) and Starfront is now on the 'suggested titles for your device'... although annoyingly it's not actually supported yet.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Jeffero:
How long are you playing it? This method worked for me only 2 days, now i can't run BackStab by it.

Maybe someone will try to launch new BackStab 1.2.2? I'm getting error when I'm trying to download cache.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nightranger73:
Here's the answer:

http://goo.gl/EEik2

OK... that was a joke but you deserved it.:P

The phone manufacturers and hardware company like nvidia and *Sony* (edited) had to be held responsible for the android fragmentation. Nvidia for having built the tegra2 and Sony for having made direct agreement with the software houses to provide its xplay a full set of games. Different hardware requires code written specifically for that GPU so there little we can do other than providing a wrapper to the graphic library to emulate the functions missing on our device.

Software houses tried to bet on the winning platform as the Tegra2 it's in use on.almost all honeycomb tablets and some gingerbread phone too but the recent news of the big sale numbers from sgs2 could made them rethink their strategies
