[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmw_4814:
The ONLY way I know of for sure to make a memory card that was used in a Windows Phone 7 handset useable again is to insert it in a Nokia phone with the Symbian operating system. The phone will recognize the card and although it will ask for a password, you can just hit cancel, then use the phone to reformat the card. It will then work again in anything. I had to do this just two days ago; I had 16GB & a 32GB cards that wouldn't work, so I found a small cell phone store that had a used Nokia phone. I went up there and they let me use it to format my cards. Now, they work like a charm!

I also heard a digital camera might be able to reformat them, but I haven't tried that, so I can't verify that fact.

Where, in a ROM, can I find, and change the lockscreen commands? I do not mean how do I select a lockscreen method, but how can I add or change lockscreen methods into a ROM? Where in the root files do I find these?

I'm making a "This is an intervention" for all Gameloft game issues, did I miss any?

I've presented a list of errors, issues and bugs across many Gameloft games... it's meant to be sort of like an intervention because Gameloft's amount of screw ups is almost as large as it's support.

Not to be mistaken, I do truly appreciate what they do and I'm not exaggerating when I say I've paid for every Gameloft game listed in the Xperia PLAY category of their store... but competence and quality control need to be stepped up big time. I've heard enough complaints on their own board (and here) to confirm this.

The thread's already active, and it's already got their attention, I just want to know if there's any issues with Gameloft's Xperia PLAY games that I've missed.

I hope you make a difference with this. I think PC games devs need a wake-up call as well for certain "mistakes" constantly made.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aitmanga:
Your post is pretty thorough. The only thing I would add is the BIG problem with Trophies/Achievements. I've already finished Dungeon Hunter 2 in easy, have ~5 achievements in Eternal Legacy, N.O.V.A 2 HD and Spider-Man and not one of those shows in my Gameloft live account.

Sacred Odyssey is truly the worst offender. The game is decent, but I haven't been able to get through the Fire temple since it FCs all the time!

I trully hope they listen to your plea.

Your words say one thing, your acts another. If you purchase all of their catalog even in the knowledge that it's buggy, they don't have any incentive to improve, as they will understand their buggy catalog is successful.

Mind your business and leave me alone.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
That would be true if not for the fact that these flaws aren't always immediately evident, and sometimes there's no prior behavior to use as a base for judgment.

After buying so many Gameloft games where at least the movement and menu control work, how could someone just 'expect' Eternal Legacy to have an issue where you always move diagonally?

After buying so many Gameloft games that, at the very least, manage to stay running without error, who could just instinctively expect that Sacred Odyssey would have force closing issues?

Or even better yet, who could expect that Order & Chaos would be released in the Xperia PLAY section without it actually having Xperia PLAY controls?

Someone who's only played Assassin's Creed, AVATAR, Star Batallion, Dungeon Hunter 2 and Spider-Man could very well think nothing but greatness of Gameloft out of only playing the games that aren't hugely flawed.

The 'boy who cried wolf' repeat offender logic isn't exactly applicable here... matter of fact it only works for a select few shooters... you've got to see both sides of the spectrum before making a call like that.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
I took advantage of the promotion of three free games by Gameloft. I would say that with three games one can have a good idea where the quality level lies.

As a result: Let's Golf 2 was offensively poor, with a retarded AI and unpolished interface. I'm yet to play Backstab because it has no sound, no matter the ROM I use or the many download links I've been provided. Sacred Odyssey is just ok.

With that experience, I am certain that

1) One can only expect crud from GL.

2) I won't finance crud if I can avoid it: my taxes do that already.

And of course, all of this is not taking into account the Xerox processes that we all know and love.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] eros78:
I hate to sound cynical here but this thread implies that Gameloft doesn't have a QA department. Any game dev has a QA department and in spite of that a number of developers ship titles with known bug. Making a thread here is really just a sounding board for us. I could be wrong about this but even if Gameloft were to look at this post they're not inclined to correct there issue. Their business model seems to be about trying to bring multiple genres across multiple devices. If they can't get an exclusive at release like Backstab to work more effectively whats the chances that they take our complaints to task. For this reason I don't buy anymore Gameloft games. Why continually buy wack games from them then complain about it here, as if they don't know the problems of their games. Controls being wonky is not a bug that you discover after release.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
Sir OP, there are things that I want added.

First, for Backstab. Lots of FCs, severe clipping, and resetting to Level 2 (while riding a boat with a girl, not sure if it was level 2) during force closes when in fact I have already progressed further and nearing the end.

Second, for Rainbow Six, player keeps commanding, "Go into position" without me telling them to, obliterating stealth approach. The green commands on the walls get highlighted by themselves without me issuing the order, thus, sending teammates to a position I do not want.

Another is teammates shooting on sight when the mission in fact is a covert operation, obliterating the entire mission and having to restart again.

General suggestion on their FPS games, why not copy Bad Company 2's key-mapping? Since we use the left-touchpad to move, why not use the D-pad for things LIKE Left for Previous Weapon, Right for Next Weapon, Down for Crouch. (God we still use touchscreen to crouch in MC2!) Besides, SE's idea in introducing the Xplay is to reduce/eliminate the need for Touchscreen controls!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] speedyink:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Actually if you hold down the Circle button and press down or up that allows you to crouch/stand up. I'm not sure how I figured that out or if it was in the instructions somewhere.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
lmao... I see narflynn didn't waste any time going over there to give Nik 'the business'.

I XD'ed pretty damn hard.

EDIT: If anyone cares, I re-formatted that topic to have a "ACTIVE ISSUE/RESOLVED" format, also

I'm having trouble understanding exactly what you meant by that.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
"Receiving infractions is very hard, but I admit I can be a **** when someone is dicking dropping stupid **** on me. An eye for an eye amigo!"

Anyway, what I meant with that is that, for example, I am already on advanced levels like for example the zombie village, the game will just crash and when I start it back up again, I start again from the level where Blake still has his long hair and beard. I mean, the mission with the cutscene in which he was on a boat with a girl then suddenly a bigger ship collides with them. That's it! ;)

Over the last 4 months that Nik has been saying the same thing on every single complaint post on their forums. He deserved it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Aerox912:
Let's golf sucks, thats true. But really, dungeon hunter 2 is a awesome game, and so are NOVA2 and BackStab

And for the record, Backstab has sound.. I can assure you that and if you want to i can make a video to prove it. Did you maybe buy the market version? or the "ask google for the .apk" version, because the one i bought in the gameloft wapstore is working just fine and i bought it the day it came available so probably the oldest version there is, besides the bugs OP wrote in his thread everything works. Only a little bit low fps sometimes, probably has something to do with my background processes. Because it happens now and then.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
Reading what you're replying to will go a long way for mutual understanding! :)

Backstab has never had sound in my case. I've been sent multiple APK's and I've downloaded it 10 or 12 times from Gameloft's site... to no avail. if it does have sound in yours, more power to you. How's the plot?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ff7fan4eva:
Yeah i don't get sound either, you think it could be an app interference or it could be our version/rom/phone
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
I get sound with backstab :p
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
How about for Eternal Legacy how it crashes during battle sequences (its back for me again) but of course I'm so deep into the game that if I re-install to start over I don't even want to bother.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Assassin's Creed, Brothers in Arms 2 and Backstab have been updated.

But now we have a new issue in Order & Chaos where anyone who bought the Wapshop version (the only version with Xperia PLAY controls) cannot play without updating, and also cannot update.

I ain't forgot about this... I'm ready to hound their asses until they at least fix the analog issue in Eternal Legacy... not being able to simply walk straight it unforgivable.

As for BackStab... can anyone that previously had issues update and see if they're still getting issues? My BackStab rarely crashed and had no sound issues before so I can't judge how things have changed.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] SkaterOllie795:
I had this problem with backstab but then I found the solution. Turn your phone off of silent mode. Some games have this problem. Then go back on the game and make sure that the media volume is turned up.

I used to get sound in the intro clip but then no sound in the game. I hope I helped someone :)

For the past few days I have been having an issue with the stock android email client connecting to my Yahoo mail account. It works for a while but then when I go back to check it I have a message that requires me to re-enter the password.

This only happened after I updated to the latest Humble but I have to think that was a coincidence since it still happens after I reverted back to EP1 and then EP3HA.

WTH? Any ideas?

Ok, I love my TF. And I mean it is awesome. And just being to get a Dock/Keyboard is very cool too..

But I am having a hard time buying the keyboard/. Yes I know all the advantages. But this is what my wife says about it. If you wanted a laptop, then why did you get a tablet?

I have no way of arguing with her on this point. But I would use it if I bought one.

So can you guys give me some advice to help me decide?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Julioski:
If your wife doesn't understand why it's better you chance your wife ;-)

Try to show herramientas that with a keyboard you have the best of two worlds. A laptop for some situations a tablet for other.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnycreature:
I enjoy having the keyboard dock simply because it bridges the gap between a tablet and a netbook. In addition to all the features it offers typing is so much more convenient while still experiencing the touch screen of the tab itself (whenever I use mine or my wife's laptop I actually try to scroll on the screen...).

You can ask your wife to remove the screen from a netbook when you want to use it separately ;). I'd say go for it! According to ASUS it will also be compatible for future tablets.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phlunkie:
Now having the keyboard dock, I wish i didn't. I wish i would have picked up a good bt keyboard that i could interchange with my cellphone/htpc/future cell./future tablet. my .02
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnycreature:
It all comes down to what your main purpose/use for the dock is. I personally like that you can hook up external drives etc. without issues, take screenshots, have dedicated android shortcuts and so on. I had a BT keyboard for my XOOM but it wasn't that great (admittedly, it was a cheap generic Apple keyboard that I taught some android shortcuts). If it's just for the sake of typing on a keyboard then yes, maybe it's better to get a good wireless (BT) keyboard that works with other BT devices. If you want connectivity and expandability then the dock is the best (only?) solution.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bob Smith42:
For me, I enjoyed using the tablet only. I got the keyboard/dock so I could type faster, and keep the tablet charged. Sometimes I use the USB & SD slots, too.

What happens now: I leave the tablet in the dock most of the time. I only disconnect the tablet when I want to read or play something that works better without a keyboard/dock.

The dock transforms your use from primary tablet, to primary tablet/dock. HTH.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldude99:
One of the ways I justified it is that with any other tablet you have to buy a BT keyboard anyways, and in addition the dock when folded PROTECTS the tab's glass, basically eliminating the need for a case or sleeve
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumbleweed:
+1 To " get a new wife" :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reeonimus:
I make good use of the extra USB, SD, and battery so its really justified for me.

And +1 to fldude99 about protecting the glass. If you think it will benefit you for what you do with the tab then get it. I for one, love it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdcking12345:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyskmaster:
good for you, oh, and a word of advice, you might like to know what one would do about the weird trackpad and scrolling problems, and that is this: get a usb mouse... It works great with the dock and makes for the full "netbook" experience. (I would go for a wired one though because I occassionally have problems with my wireless one)

hope I could make your experience a little easier

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaulHBK:
Considering I got my TF + Dock for $230 shipped brand new, Im thrilled with this thing. The dock is amazing because it gives you the flexibility to work or play. It's very portable with or without the dock, but I usually take just the TF with me when I go places and I dock it the second I get home. Not to mention the extra battery life is a blessing. I say go for it man, you won't regret it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brando56894:
It makes typing a hundred times easier and the extra battery are the main reasons I love the dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
(1) Laptop battery doesn't last 16 hours.

(2) Laptop can't transform into a tablet when you just want a tablet.

(3) Laptop doesn't have multi-touch capacitive screen.

(4) Laptop feels like an anchor.

Just a few off the top of my head.

I've found that people, ipad users in particular, have a hard time understanding choice. To them the issue is whether you want a tablet or a laptop. What if you want both but don't want to carry a laptop and a tablet around?

Earlier today someone on the train asked me just this question. She was crazy about her ipad 2. So, we talked about our tablets because she was curious about what I have. The question inevitably came up. Why didn't I just get a laptop? I gave her my short answer, which was "I like having the choice to either have a laptop or a tablet". She just gave me a blank look.

This goes back to what I've been saying for months. Apple has done a very good job at convincing people that you cannot be productive with your ipad. You need a laptop for that, preferably the macbook air. So, this woman, like so many others I've talked to, was puzzled why I wanted to do work with my tablet. She couldn't imagine typing for too long on her ipad because the softkeys are just horrible to type on if you're doing substantial typing. Even after I plugged my Tf into the dock, she still had trouble understanding how I could work with a tablet. I had to show her some documents I had put together on nothing but the TF and my powerpoint presentation.

By the time she got up to get off the train at her stop, I still got the feeling that she was still not convinced you could be useful with the tablet platform.

Last month, ,I read an article that claimed the author believed strongy the future will belong to the tablet-notebook hybrids. I guess only time will tell. I agree with that article, though.

i damaged my tablet by packing it with an extension cord for a flight - the prongs dug deep into the screen and damaged it somewhat - d'oh

[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
First off, I want to clarify something. A completed ROM is never a base. A base is an RUU, or a stock, rooted, deodexed ROM. I'm not sure eveyone really understands this. As such, we continue to get PMs that say "Hey can I use your ROM as a base for my ROM?" Our ROM, is a ROM... HTC certainly didn't release it as it sits. Countless hours have gone into making things work that never should have.

In any case, after careful consideration, we have decided to give open permission to anyone and everyone to use BAMF 'Touch My BAMF', 'BAMF Forever' and 'Son of a Bliss' as a base for their ROMs. Frankly, we get like a bazillion PMs a day asking for permission to do this, and it's getting old.

It seems every Tom, ****, and Harry wants to throw a theme on them, delete some apks, and call it Super Duper Bliss or whatever. Well I'm here to tell you, it's fine. We only ask you remove any BAMF exclusive items like Status Bar mods, init tweaks, BAMF Settings, Rosie mods, etc, etc...

We're all about helping further the community, and at this point, we feel like we've conquered Sense. Every imaginable version has been placed on the Thunderbolt courtesy of Team BAMF, but because of past events, XDA users have been mostly left out in the cold. Hopefully, some of the new devs here can pick up our work and make something great of it.

Just make sure to give credit where credit is due, and remember who brought it to you first. :D

Thanks,
