Yo guys i managed to run the game on 1gb ram device.My old crappy desire 310 was able to run the game on 5-10fps with its quadcore cortex a7 cpu and mali-400mp2 :D sadly with 1gb of ram the controller app crashed when the game was fully loaded with the g-man intro so I wasnt able to move.I will try it on my one x as soon as possible but I dont expect better results since it has 1gb ram too.BTW enabling fake gpu option was crashing the game.

I am using moto g 3rd marshmallow.

Game crashing after valva source logo.

Any idea what is problem...

Tried each possible setting in GLTools.

Or any compatible apk.
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
I have the same problem. Always worked perfectly well in MIUI KK and LL CM 12.1, now I'm on CM 13 and it doesn't even finish loading the first logo. GLTools is working fine because I have Deus Ex The Fall Tegra version running just fine, so it's not GLTools fault.

Latest HL2 (v56) says it fixes a launching issue on MM but that's the version I have and I can't play it. It has to be something to do with compatibility between HL2 and MM.

Guys, thanks to this thread I have this working perfectly, my only issue is my controller, I'm using a Terios T3+ , when I'm in game my left and right triggers don't work.

I can't get my head around gamekeyboard+ and I can't find any decent guides on how to use it, is there any better info / tutorials anywhere ? The "manual" is crap.

thx

edit:

haha 30 seconds after posting I figure it out, just go to the in game control section and remap there :D

It is working on Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (Snapdragon 650 Adreno 510) but in the same way like on Redmi Note 2 Helio X10 Power VR Rogue 6200 , the game is loaded on the right top corner of the display, so dear developers, it is very annoyng that this game is not able to load on full screen on freakin' snapdragon 650, we all know that the Power VRs are not able to load the game in fullscreen, but I didn't expected same from Adreno 510 ...

In the end do I need to buy a new device with specific TEGRA chipset to be able to play that game ?
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Why are you calling out the developers?

This is not a developer thread, this is a thread about using and configuring an emulation driver and program, to do something that normally it's not possible.

The only developer in question could be the app developer, but those bugs are not his fault obviously, because the app is doing it's job. Emulation comes with it's flaws, if the driver is working and well configured but the game still doesn't work or a bug happens, it's either the hardware, the OS, or the game itself.

For example, in CM-based Android 6.0.1 i can play DeusEx THD and Shadowgun THD just like i always did on previous ROMs, but for some reason, HL2 just crashes in the first splash screen... that's not the app dev's fault, that's the game's fault. And in the end... that's the nature of emulation. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
[Android Apps and Games] cpurage:
Then why the hell it is loading on the full screen of Mali GPUs or even on older Adreno GPUs or even I saw in some threads on older PowerVRs, so it's not a bug at all, if needed a custom bootloader or special plugins to make it to full screen, please someone to share it ... I know that the app is not compatible with other chipsets different than TEGRA, that's because of scumbag VALVE/NVIDIA "ooouuuuhhh we are the best, we are going to port it only for SHIELD", whatever ...
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Hello? You did read everything i wrote, right?

It's EMULATION, it's not guaranteed to work on every hardware or Android version available out there, and it's natural that newer hardware has more difficulty because of the newer drivers, instructions, etc, etc, etc. Older hardware is by now entirely scrutinated and well developed, so it's easier to know how to make these sort of things work.

It has nothing to do with bootloaders or whatever, you, like me and others, just have to wait. Either for the game to update, or the app/driver to update.
[Android Apps and Games] nex86:
Did it that way, crashes in the middle of the Valve Logo.

[Android Apps and Games] Ubi_fr:
Hello tried on mtk6735p and near playable (i don't have controller and gamekeyboard.apk close when load the game...(1gbram))

This days buy a Lenovo Z2 (z2131) rooted in different way. With zui2 rom HL2 ends before valve logo and with cm13 unofficial it's 1.5 seconds with sound.... and crash !

Perhaps the root is not "enough" or is there any incompatibility with snapdragon 820 !

Did someone test with snapdragon820 & adreno 530 ?
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
It has been said before, HL2 doesn't work on Android M through this method. The game itself has been updated to M compatibility, so Tegra owners can play it with no problems, but for us it's Lollipop or nothing if we want the game to run.
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Version 66 is out, anyone is able to try it?

I managed to get a hold of this versions apk but doesn't download the data and updating from v56 is not possible either. Changelog mentions updates in MM compatibility.

If anyone manages to try this out, say something...
[Android Apps and Games] anticard99:
I downloaded it on my zenfone 2 ze551ml android 6.0.1 and it even worst than v56 can't even get to the logo, I just heard like 0.5 sec start music then it crash
[Android Apps and Games] Crawnenbourg:
Hi everyone,i Know this thread is dead since october but I really want Tegra games on my Moto X Style (XT1572).

So i m on M 6.0, rooted ofc. I ve tried to fake my device to make the game think i m on Lollipop or KitKat (using Nexus 7 and Asus transformer templates) but nothing. I ve tried v66 (which is normaly compatible with M as shown in the changelog) and v44 for the older version of Android, but nothing make it work, i cant pass the Valve logo as much people complained.

Anyone found a way to make the deal with M or even N (i can flash RR rom if needed). Since there's any real Borderlands or HL like on the play store they really miss me.

Thanks everyone and happy new year btw !
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
As it has been said before, HL2 via GLTools only works on Android LL or older. Latest apks are supposed to be compatible with M but something must have changed on the apps code, because it only really works on real Tegra's.
[Android Apps and Games] MrHencky:
Thats a bummer, running CM13 on my Note3 and would love to have HL2 or Portal on there... I tried, GLtools works well, but HL2 and portal both crash 1 second into the valve head video.

So far havent found any setting that address the issue. Is something missing/incomplete with the template files for tegra 4 to support MM better?
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
I don't think so, i think it's the game's fault because DeusEx Tegra and Shadowgun Tegra run well without issues using GLTools, even on Nougat. It's just HL2 and Portal that crash, no matter the settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Crawnenbourg:
Hi back guys,

So i've flashed Lollipop (Retail 5.1.1) on my Moto X Style and finally HL2 work perfectly with my CTRLr gamepad, everything work,just got 2-3 textures and frame errors but restarting the game correct everything, now i'm gonna try Portal and Doom 3 BFG.

Oh and btw, if game don't start/Fc try to reboot your device ! When i try to launch the game after i've opened something else it don't work,but after a fresh boot it work of the first try ! I think there's something wrong with the cache which create a problem with GLtools (surely cause of the template), certainly a bug cause other application write the right device hardware and GLtools can't overwrite those so the device is lost beetween the two hardware listed imo, not sure

About the CTRLr gamepad : No pad problem, every buttons/trigger seems to work without any troubleshooting, it all responds like it was made for ! And no mapper needed.

Now another problem which isn't related in any case with HL2 but with Borderlands 2. I've downloaded the v1.0.0.0.33 (the only one available on the net) but it doesn't seem to be compatible with Lollipop...I've installed it perfectly on Marshmallow but it was crashing at start and i don't have any other device to test (my wife got an Honor 7 and i don't know if it's rootable and my mediapad X2 still under Lollipop but i can't unlock the bootloader cause it's a GEM-702L and only the 703L are unlockable, i can't access to Huawei unlocker page cause my device isn't chinese)

So anyone here under MM have tries with Borderlands 2 ?

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Edit : Portal v30 and Doom 3 BFG v1.0 don't work. I'm trying with Portal V44 (same as HL2) and Doom 3 BFG v1.1.9.

Edit2 : Finally Portal v44 is perfectly working with the same GLTools settings as HL2, now waiting for Doom 3.

Édit3 : OK so Doom 3 v1.1.9 isn't working, force close After controller ask.

And i ve seen that Shield TV have a différent cames catalog (Métal Gear,Résident Évil,etc...) So i've gived à try to RE5 but if force close too cause I dont have Tegra X1 template

Anyone know if there is a way to add templates into GLtools ? Chainfire if you pass !
[Android Apps and Games] MrHencky:
WORK AROUND FOR ANDROID N AND M!

Been talking with the dev for GLTools, great guy, he offered the following insight into the issue:

I've found the reason, an update will be available soon (I hope). The problem is that HL2 engine is using some weird behavior of dlopen() on Android < 6.

You can symlink your /system/lib/libGLESv2.so and /system/lib/libEGL.so to /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so and /usr/lib/libEGL.so, maybe it will even work.

I ended up dumping the symlinks and simply copying and pasting the files into the directory called out directory (make sure I matched the permissions on the folders if you create and dont copy). IT WORKS GREAT. Ive played though most of portal and working on hl2 as well. The folders/files you created/copied to /usrlib/lib/ disappear after a reboot but thats fine by me until a GLtools update is rolled out.

Enjoy!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Thanks man, I'll try it out as soon as i can, not sure it will work for me now because now I have a ZF2 with Intel SoC, but your persistence is kick-ass :D
[Android Apps and Games] Shamako:
I don't have a usr folder in the root directory? :(
[Android Apps and Games] MrHencky:
Neither did I, you'll need to create it using a file explorer with root permissions and write access. I use ES file explorer with the root explorer option selected. You'll also want to ensure when u create the folders you give them the same permissions as the .So files you copy into them.

I built a directory I keep on my SD card and copy and paste it into / whenever I reboot. Wrote a tasker task for it actually ;p

Hope that helps... If not let me know and I'll try to provide a more detailed breakdown
[Android Apps and Games] Shamako:
Thanks for the help mate

I made the usr folder in root and copied the libs over, setting the correct permissions for them and the folder. Applied the Gltools settings, and game still crashes immediately at launch - the valve music plays for like 1 second before FC. (tested withHL2 and HL2 EP1) :crying: It worked fine on my S6 under lollipop, but no luck under 6.0 even with your suggestions. Please let me know if there is anything else i can do to run it! Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] MrHencky:
Hmmm and you running version v66 or v67 of the HL2 Ep1 and HL2 apk respectively? Need to have the compatible apk for MM...

I assume u made the /lib folder under usr folder as well?
[Android Apps and Games] Shamako:
Hey, I just enabled all permissions on the files and it now works :highfive: But all the characters have some weird texture/vertex glitches, even though I'm using the gltools settings in OP for my S6. Everything else looks good
[Android Apps and Games] ripp2003:
No chance for me on my S6 6.0.1 (rooted ,custom firmware and of course paid gltools).

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

OK I've found problem : copy lib does not work.... I've symlink with root explorer and game start !!!!! (need to make some test because texture are bad) but now, game can be start !!!!!

Thanks to all for the /usr/lib correction !!!!
[Android Apps and Games] ripp2003:
So for those who wants to play to HL2 , here my config with fps between 30 and 60fps and graphics near PERFECTION on Samsung S6 :

-> Samsung S6 g920f

-> ROM Alexis_The_End_of_MM (from 05/02/2017) so 6.0.1

-> Original kernel

-> GLTools 2.02

-> HL2 v67 (actually the latest and compatible with MM)

-> A bluetooth pad (I use a MAD CATZ C.T.R.L)

You must configure GL TOOLS like this :

* ENABLE CUSTOM SETTINGS FOR THIS APP

* Anti aliasing MSAA 4x

* USE FAKE GPU INFO

* USE CPU/RAM INFO --------------- MAYBE NOT ACTIVATED ------------ GOT TO TEST

* USE A TEMPLATE -> CHOOSE SHIELD

* USE PACKET STENCIL BUFFER

* SHADER ATTRIBUTE REORDERING

AND THAT'S ALL

Now the trick is to make a symlink (I use root explorer) of these 3 files :

-> /system/lib/libEGL.so

-> /system/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so

-> /system/lib/libGLESv2.so

to

-> /usr/lib/ (you have to create that folder at the root system file)

You must recreate the symlink after each reboot !!!

REALLY A GREAT THANKS TO MrHencky for telling us this trick on MM (and thanks to the developper of gltools for the discovery !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
[Android Apps and Games] JellyShakers:
The way you describe the symlinks is confusing, this should be more clear:

1.) Create folder "/usr" if not exist. (Owner: root, Group: root, Permissions: 755)

2.) Create folder "/usr/lib" if not exist. (Owner: root, Group: root, Permissions: 755)

3.) Create Symlink from "/usr/lib/libEGL.so" to "/system/lib/libEGL.so"

4.) Create Symlink from "/usr/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so" to "/system/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so"

5.) Create Symlink from "/usr/lib/libGLESv2.so" to "/system/lib/libGLESv2.so"

Note: If you need a root file manager capable of creating symlinks, use "MiXplorer" that can be installed through the official XDA-Labs application and is absulutely free against Root explorer which costs money.
[Android Apps and Games] ripp2003:
;)

Exactly you're right.

I've already done my own script : I've used root explorer (got for free on amazon) because I used it for a long time....

Here my script :
[Android Apps and Games] JellyShakers:
Shouldnt it be ?:

mount -o 'remount,rw' '/'

And here my solution:

mount -o 'remount,rw' '/' && \
mkdir -p '/usr/lib' && \
chmod 755 '/usr' '/usr/lib' && \
chown 'root:root' '/usr' '/usr/lib' && \
ln -fs '/system/lib/libEGL.so' '/usr/lib/libEGL.so' && \
ln -fs '/system/lib/libGLESv2.so' '/usr/lib/libGLESv2.so' && \
ln -fs '/system/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so' '/usr/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so';
mount -o 'remount,ro' '/';

Then I put it into Tasker:

1.) New Profile -> Event -> System -> Device Boot

2.) New Task -> Add action -> Code -> Run Shell -> Command (Paste code from above) -> Use Root (Important)

3.) Let the task run once manually, in case Tasker asks for root permissions and enable it permanently.

3.) Save and reboot, done.

Automaticly creates these files after each reboot of my device, don't need to do it manually again :p
[Android Apps and Games] TechTronix:
Still after Following the above steps , unable to load the game ,crashes soon after launch.

Using v67, double checked symlinks,and set permission to 755.

Any idea ?
[Android Apps and Games] ripp2003:
Gltools has been updated ;) Just try : you have to activate on the game profil "Old dlopen behaviour emulation"

So now, you don't have to add any symlink ;)
[Android Apps and Games] TechTronix:

[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Everytime you update, you have to let the game re-download the data. At least that's the case in HL, so it's probably the same with Portal.
[Android Apps and Games] modzilla99:
Yeah that's where the problem starts.... Even though I've already downloaded the newest data it won't rec it, but it can't even Download the content....

Second, After you flash old Stock Rom...go to download mode Press Power+Vol Down+Home Button,Connect your phone with Computer With USB Driver and flash it via Odin

Third, After U flashed CWM via Odin,Please Go Check your Recovery By Press Power + Vol Up + Home Button

Hi,

Im glad to say that I am now a proud owner of Dopod 838 Pro. Nice to join you guys here :)

I cant get Pocket Hack Master v4.06 to run stably. Can anyone confirm this?

My problems are -

1) I cannot run burn-in tests succesfully using the settings (300mhz+) provided by PHM (definately not at 400mhz) it seems that setting that are provide by PHM may be wrong? some clk values seems to be high...

2) I can add manual speed setting at 350, 400, 427mhz successfully and was able to burn-in test and get the AVGN to be active.. all other functions seems to be ok.. at 427 the speed of the unit didnt seem any better but the major bug is once the PHM scaling engine (sticky engine) is active the screen stays flickering.. which is unusable..

Please let me know if you have any solutions to this.
