Not saying this is true, just an interesting read... its a bit old but somehow I either forgot about this or just missed it. Just sharing for those interested. And yes i posted this in the Q&A section for people to discuss if they think this is legit or not... I think there may be some basis by look at how buggy a lot of the Xperia PLAY games are...cough...... shadow gaurdian........couch.......splinter cell....cough cough.

the truth about gameloft

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I copied and pasted this story, on these free and open forums, and gameloft deleted the post and my account!

Why Gameloft can't fix your issues, or the bugs in the game...

It just dawned on me:What if Gameloft, as a

company, treatstheir programmers the

way they treattheir users Would the programmers want to work for them? The answer is simple: "NO, they wouldn't."

Then I went to GOOGLE and did a simple search: "Programmers leave Gameloft" ... and tada!! Sure enough, Gameloft does not seem to have the programming power from the ultra-talented programmers who actually built the games, to actually fix the glitches and issues and bugs, much less to look after users' issues.

Read this article: http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/Multiformat/Gameloft+news/news.asp?c=36859

Apparently, Gameloft must be working with sub-par programmers who must be having to: First: learn the coding of the old programmers. Second: actually try to edit the coding to fix glitches.

This would explain their utter and complete inability to actually fix anything at all on their most popular games. The newbie programmers must be causing glitches as they work, their updates must be throwing certain parts of the game off, affecting users, affecting other fixed glitches, creating more bugs, etc.

If you know anything about coding, you would understand this. So, I've come to the conclusion that: GAMELOFT'S ENTIRE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MUST BE FIRED.

This company needs new leadership. I have a web development firm and know how bad leadership can affect products."

Why people think that Gameloft games are good, maybe they look good, gameloft team can create good graphics games, but only for few smartphones. Gameloft never created good quality games and I think never will. Games are only copy consoles hits with poor gameplay. That's why I deleted all gameloft games and play PSX great games created by skifull teams

horrible games

The dark knight rises on my play isn't working right r. The touch pads don't work properly and I don't think they'll ever update
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] djjroc007:
I missed my pocket a couple weeks ago and my GS3 got a small crack in the screen going from the right side of the ear piece, and curving up to the top edge of the phone. Took it to BB to have it fixed, and as you know, they send them out to their service center in El Paso, TX.

Well, that was two weeks ago this past Sunday, and it's still there. When I called BB to check the status Sunday, they told me that they're still waiting on parts, and because the phone is so new, they are still learning how to work on it.

This coming Sunday will be three weeks if its not back by then. How long should it take before they just finally decide to replace it? Or should i just go in and demand they do so at this point?

Its very frustrating at this point. Seems far too long for something they said would only take a couple days to fix. Also, i just past my 30 days two days ago, so exchanging for a different one is not an option now.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
I am desperated by now. I need a way to disable autolock, but in all lockscreens apps, not only on the one that comes with the phone. I guess what I need is an action like when you are on a call and the screen goes off but the phone is still awake.

For example, I want to use Go Locker, and I have my screen timeout set to 15 seconds. When the 15 seconds passes my screen goes off, but also, Go Locker autotriggers itself. I don't want that to happen because it is annoying as hell to be unlocking all the time.

I have read thoulsands of threads here and in other websites, and I have try tons of apps, all of that with no results.

I have read that you can do what I want with Tasker, but I haven't figured out how.

Please, somebody help me, this issue has been driving me mad for two weeks now!

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonysunshine:
um can't you just disable the lockscreen?

system settings -> Security -> Screen lock -> select "None"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Haven't you read me? I want to have a lockscreen, especially a custom one, not the ugly uncustomizable system one. For example, as I said, Go Locker. But I also want to prevent the autolock when the screen goes off. I want the lockscreen (any lockscreen) to trigger only when I press the button, and not when the screen goes off. Or at least to trigger itself after a long time, let's say 30 minutes. I need some app or something to turn off the screen just like in calls, but I don't know where else to look at this point...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Isadora:
Have a look in the store for Delayed Lock, it's a rather handy little app. There's a free trial available, the support thread is on XDA http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=955092
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
It only works with the system lockscreen, not with any other lockscreen... it even force you to use a pattern. What if I want to use the swipe method instead?

I tell you people, I think I need to trigger the same effect that happens when you are on a call. The screens disconects but the phone is still awake.

Thanks anyway but I still lost...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
You may want to consider using Cyanogenmod since they include several such tweaks. In Settings->Lock Screen->Screen security you can delay the lock by up to 30 minutes if it timed out. Pressing power button engages it immediatly.

Alternatively, take a look at Juice Defender, it also has such an option but if I remember correctly not as customizable.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreekDirt:
I use No Lock. Not what you want, but it works great.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Is not that, that is only for system lockscreen ant also, not for swipe lockscreen. I want something that applies to ANY lockscreen, like Go Locker.

I'll try Juice Defender.

Nothing to do with what I want.

Seriously, is really that hard?? Can Tasker somehow help me on this?? Please!!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Change the title of your thread, before it reaches hundred pages of people chiming in to tell you to go to setting and disable it.

You should made it clear in the title that it is not just for stock lock screen but any.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Obviously, it isn't. Believe me, I have download lots of different lockscreen apps, and I have searched them all looking for that feature. And I haven't found it yet... :(

Doesn't do what I want. Please, re-read my first post. But thanks anyway for trying :)

I will change it right now, but is it that hard to read the first post of this thread? I mean, does the people answer to threads only by reading his title?

Thanks anyway for the tip, I'll do it ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreekDirt:
You want to be able to keep your screen on indefinitely until you close the screen manually?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Yes, I want the screen to go off in 15 seconds for example, but not to lock until I press the power button. Or at least until a minimun time has passed, like 30 minutes.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
I want to think that I can do this with Tasker, but I don't know how! Any help?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreekDirt:
Why not just use NoLock? It has a toggle. Toggle it on for when you want backgrounding without a lock screen and then turn it off when you want your phone to lock?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
I don't want that because of two reasons:

1 - It completely disables the lockscreen and I don't want that. I don't want to be toggling all the time. It's almost the same as unlocking all the time, at least for me.

2 I don't think it works with custom lockscreens.

Thanks anyway.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norpan111:
Try miui with tons of different lock screens and everyone is system. I think this is app specific rrally.. Either you get what you want with system lockscreen or you do a request for the developer of the lockscreen you want to use....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamcakes:
Sorry mate, just downloaded Golauncher and Golocker to see if I could do this for you, but it seems like the whole process is pretty closed off, I can't find a way for tasker to influence golocker in any way.

Works with widgetlocker though... just sayin'
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
¿Can you tell me how?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
I think have a solution using tasker for your annoying problem.

1. Install go locker (or any lockscreen app) i tested it with go locker as this seems to be your preference from previous posts.

2.set up a profile in tasker

name =displayofftime

Context=state/display/displaystate/off

action 1 =wait 30 seconds(or whatever time after which you wish the screen lock to activate)

action 2 = variable/variable set/ %Screenofftime(new variable) / set to1

3. set up another profile

name = screen on

context = event/display/display on

action 1 = load app/go home/ page 1(or whatever page is your home page in launcher) if %Screenofftime(from above) ~ 0

action 2 = variable set/ %Screenofftime/ set to 0

I have tried this and it works fine.

Let me know if you dont understand my explanation and i will clarify( It's late)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Yes, I'm going to need a clarify, sorry. Also, how to activate a profile? It always says to me: no active profiles...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
Which bit dont you understand?

the profile is instant so wont show as being active.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
action 1 =wait 30 seconds(or whatever time after which you wish the screen lock to activate)

action 2 = variable/variable set/ %Screenofftime(new variable) / set to1

That are two actions inside a task linked to the profile, right? How do I make action two? How do I set it to 1, and what's (new variable), a name that I have to put or something?

Let's put that clear, for example.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
Just click on the + icon in bottom left of task window to add additional tasks.

It will get set to "1" automatically after the time (wait) has expired.

If the wait doesnt reach its limit then it wont get set to "1"and the screen lock will not activate.

The new variable is one you have to create called: %Screenofftime
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
I must been doing something wrong. It doesn't work, it doesn't even turn off the screen after 7 seconds, which is what I have set to try.

action 1 =wait 30 seconds(or whatever time after which you wish the screen lock to activate)

How do you exactly do that?

Also, when I set the two profiles, it seems like only screenon is active (in green).

So?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
These profiles will not turn off the screen. You need to set that in display settings. What these profiles do its send you to the homescreen when you turn back on instead of lockscreen. The time you are seeing is to control the amount of time it takes to show lockscreen when display is switched back
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
OK then, I'm going to tell you exactly what I do step by step, and you tell me where I fail, becasue apparently this is not working for me.

- The system lockscreen is disabled.

- The screen timeout is set to 15 seconds.

- Go Locker is active, and when the screen goes off or when I press the power button, the phone locks.

I open Tasker (there is no Profiles, no Tasks, no Scenes, and no Variables, and I think I haven't change anything in the preferences), and do the following:

1 - Tap on + to add a profile, put a name (displayofftime) and Tap on "check". Tap on State, Display, Display State, select Off and tap on "check".

2 - Inmediately a popup appears, and tap on "New Task +". Put a name (whatever name?) and now I don't know what to do. Because according to you:

action 1 =wait 30 seconds(or whatever time after which you wish the screen lock to activate)

And I don't know how to interpret that. So, after tap on "New Task +", please tell me step by step what to do next.

And thanks again :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
After pressing "new task" choose "task" then choose "wait" then set time to "30 seconds". Press "green tick"

Then press the"+" button in bottom left of task window.

Select "variable" then "variable set"

In the top box type "%Displayofftime"

in the value box type "1"

press "ok"

This profile is done.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

3. set up another profilename = screen oncontext = event/display/display onaction 1 = load app/go home/ page 1(or whatever page is your home page in launcher)*if*%Screenofftime(from above) ~ 0action 2 = variable set/*%Screenofftime/ set to 0

Click "+" to add new profile.

Name = "screen on"

press ok.

Press "event"

Press "display"

Press "display on"

Press ok

Press "new task"

Press "app"

Press "go home"

Press ok

Press"+" icon in bottom left

Press "variable"

Press "variable set"

Click icon above the top box.

Choose the variable we created earlier "%displayofftime"

In the value box type "0"

This profile is also done. Hopefully the screen guard should only be coming on after the time you set.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
"in the value box type "1""

Where is the value box? Is the one that haves the "To" on the top?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
Yes
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Is this supposed to turn off my screen at 15 seconds, but only trigger Go Locker after 30, so if I press something at second 20 the screen would go back as it was?

Something is not working for me on my SGS3, comfirm me that and I'll post you step by step what I'm doing.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
If you press a button to unlock the phone at 20 seconds then your phone should come back on to your homescreen without showing lockscreen.

If 30 seconds have elapsed then the phone will come back on to lockscreen
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
And if I'm in the middle of an app? I want to phone to behave as if nothing happened, like when the screen goes off during a call, but everything stills there... is that possible somehow?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
You can try "load last app" instead of "go home"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Well, I wait for the 15 seconds, the screen goes off and then... I heard a click, go locker has lock my phone :'(

This is what I do:

- The system lockscreen is disabled.

- The screen timeout is set to 15 seconds.

- Go Locker is active, and when the screen goes off or when I press the power button, the phone locks.

I open Tasker (there is no Profiles, no Tasks, no Scenes, and no Variables, and I think I haven't change anything in the preferences. The button on the right, at the botton, is OFF), and do the following:

1 - Tap on + to add a profile, put a name (displayofftime) and Tap on "check". Tap on State, Display, Display State, select Off and tap on "check".

2 - Inmediately a popup appears, and tap on "New Task +". Put a name (action1), tap on +, choose Task, Wait, and the tap + on second until I reach 30. Tap "check", then +, Variable, Variable Set, put a name (%screenoff), put 1 in "To". Tap "check" 2 times.

3 Press + for a new profile. Write a name (screenon). Event, Display, Display On, priority is set to normal. Tap "check" and inmediately tap on New Task. Put a name (action2). Tap +, App, Load Last App. No tap anything in "if". Tap +, Variable, Variable Set, write %screenoff like above (it doesn't let me choose) and put 0 in "To".

Check the two profiles, the prohibition symbol appears. Tap on OFF to turn Tasker ON. Press home button. In notification bar: Tasker, no active profiles.

After 15 seconds, I hear the noise of Go Locker.

What am I doing wrong?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
Firstly, start the name of the variable with a capital letter "%Screenoff" (That is why you cant choose)

Secondly you are forgetting this bit from my original post :

action 1 = load app/go home/ page 1(or whatever page is your home page in launcher)

if

%Screenoff ~ 0
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
I've just made those two modifications (put Screenoff with capital 3 times, and check "if" and set it to "0". Nothing. Do you want me to make screenshots of my config?

Remember, in notification bar: Tasker, no active profiles.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh787:
I cant see where you are going wrong.

I am trying to tweak it to make it go back to the page you were working on rather than homepage.

If i am successful then i will try and make a video tutorial

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
Two things that I have think of:

1 - Can you export the profiles so I can put them directly on my Tasker?

2 - Can we build a very simple task/profile to check that my Tasker is actually working properly?

EDIT:

3 - Maybe my ROM isn't compatible? I have just tried uninstalling and reinstalling the trial...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXtremeDevil:
So how can we check that my Tasker is working properly?

Did you try Screebl? Screebl can prevent your screen to lock based on the position of the device. You can set Screebl to prevent your screen to lock when your device has an inclination of x degrees.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WakkaRnc:
Hi, so given that this is my first post here I tried to read through all the noob-guides and search for similar issues, but the effort was ultimately fruitless so I had to create this thread. Hopefully I was not merely incompetent and the question has not been asked a million times already.

So the problem I am facing is that when I enter the GO Launcher market most of the apps tell me "Your device isn't compatible with this version". This is really annoying because the reason I did the root was to gain access to the market/apps. My Kindle Fire was bought as a gift in the US and as such I cannot use the stock market without an American credit card (I am European), fair enough as long as I can get the root solution to work.

So this is what I did:

I rooted the Fire using this guide: Guide had to be removed from post because of posting restrictions for new users

which means I used Kindle Fire Utility, and that whole process went well. Then I did the "install google apps" option within KFU. This apparently installed GO Launcher Ex which I guess must be the way to get the stock ROM to accept the google market. I booted using GO Launcher Ex and all appeared to be well until I accessed the market and almost all the apps told me that "Your device isn't compatible with this version".

I have tried to find a solution on my own, and most places seem to indicate that the problem is that the dpi has been changed. Those topics were also based on different tablet/pdf-readers/phones or different ROMs, thus I did not ask this question in those topics. The problem with saying that the dpi must have been changed is that I have not manually changed it, and I cannot find the option to change it on my Kindle Fire either.

Hopefully one of you savvy gentlemen will be able to assist me with this as I am equal parts confused and inexperienced with rooting tablets.

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veeman:
Go launcher ex does not allow you to install the Google market app. It's just a launcher (the app that opens when you hit the home button)

The easiest solution for you is to install TWRP and FireFireFire and install the Modaco ROM.
