angry birds on hd2 - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey y'all, anyone got an idea if it's possible to play angry birds iphone/n900 game on leo!? coolest game I've seen in probably like two weeks!

Do I ask on Apple Forum if it's possible to remove the battery? No. Why? Different stuff. You must stop comparing them. Period.

In our dreams man

lol, as much as i dont like the Iphone i must admin that angry birds game is pretty fun.
In saying that there are better usefull programs on the HD2 but it does lack quality games but adding PSX emulation does add some spice though.

iphuck
I'm well aware of the fact that my leo kicks some serious apple ass, but don't anyone out there think it would be awesome to have games from this century as well? after all we do talk about the top of the line device, right!?

ABDOKRO1 told it all. Wanna iphone stuff? Buy iphone. Bought WinMo PPC? Use winmo stuff.

I don't get what is so wrong with asking if there is anything like a game/app from iphone? Alot of games are made for multiple platforms. We already have some games "ported" from iphone.
Stop with the iphone-complex

and winmo stuff means like 90's video games? don't get me wrong, I think it's an awesome solution but why oh why won't they make games like this for winmo. it's not just iphuck you know, seems to me all platforms are a lightyear ahead... think mr gates has a syndrome or something.........

It will get better with W7 i guess. Winmo is old and there are alot of different devices/hardware so it's hard to make games for them.
For now just keep looking and let us know if you find any =D

It depends what you want. Windows Mobile is by far the best business orientated platform available. THAT IS WHAT IT IS FOR!!!
If you want a game-based pretty toy then the iPhone is the phone for you. Don't buy a Land Rover and then complain that it doesn't look like a Mini Cooper.

To be fair, the HD2 is not sold as a business phone, it's sold as a multimedia phone! At least it is in my country.

basically, angry birds is a flash game to me except for two things...
1.) on the multitouch zooming on the map, and
2.) minor multitouch on one particular 'golder-egg' level (which is like a bonus unlock)
for me it doesnt seem impossable, all we need
1. permission from angry birds hq,
2. a dev willing to make the software (might be good to edit story line and add a zoomer bar instead to save time)
but one thing... whos gonna make it lol?
cheers

to be honest i back alot of people views on this thread and infact every other thread this is mentioned on, if you want iphone apps get an iphone it really is as simple as that and the only reason why regular members are becoming short and blunt with people about this is because it comes up time and time again with people moaning they have a HD2 and wanting iphone games sheesh!!!!!!!
if you dont want the phone just the apps do like i do and get an Ipod touch and that way you can have the best of both worlds lol instead of moaning.
Sorry i think i speak on behalf of most of us on here!!!!

might be a good point, but I got my hd2 for the 4,3" multitouch screen's entertainment potensial, as I work on construction sites it's not worth much to me as a buisiness phone.. but seems there are people with me on this. as far as I can tell there are ALOT of programmers on xda so I figure some people are capable of making stuff built for other platforms fit to winmo, right?

Angry Birds - Lets put the story to bed!
To save you all wondering if AB is coming to Winmo, I wrote to the devolper -
"Will Rovio ever make a Windows mobile version of Angry Birds?
I have the game on my iPhone but want it on my HD2"
Here's the reply I got back -
"Thanks for your email. Currently we have no plans on bringing Angry Birds to any Windows mobile 6.5 devices. We are looking into bringing the game to window 7 devices in the future. Unfortunately it’s very unlikely Angry Birds will be available for your HD2.
At least you can keep playing it on your iPhone "
So there you go. Straight from the horses mouth - Rovio
Sweep

awwww thats sad...
thanks sweep anyway(s)

More than likely it'll just be ported by someone at one point or another. I'm noticing that more and more developers are going through the trouble of porting iPhone apps to Windows Mobile. Funny because it shows the iphone developers all the money they lost out on becuase someone released it for free lol.
Plus if it brings any comfort, there are already developers that have had donations and equipment BOUGHT for them to port WM7 onto the HD2. Sooner or later Windows Mobile 7 will be on the HD2. Dunno how great it'll work on it but at least people can start saying "someone is getting WM7 onto the HD2".

Future will be better
I understand why people see games on other phones and want it on ours. I wish I had the time to port over some of those games myself. Well there is no angry birds but if you look in this forum there is 2 short SuperMariobros games. One of them I made Mario have a gun where he can shoot goombas and koopas. Sorry I dont have the time nessary to make longer games but at least we have something they dont have SuperMario with a gun. Hopefully in the future I have more time. Here is the link to SuperMarioGunHD2

thanks for feedback

I think that would be a good game and similar to this one without pissing on the memory of any murdered people.
Bush = Idiot
Osama = Idiot
What is the problem, i think this is awesome.
Its a game, i mean a game like Call of duty 5 is like killing real people, you murdering scoundrels! stop killing those innocent 0's and 1's.
Nice game Zarpy!!
thanks to all
Thanks to everyone who has responded. Now to answer back some charges. No the game is not disrespectfull to anyone because you can choose your fate. Play as bush or Osama. I do have a obama vs. bush also and you get to choose both. Iam always fair plus this is cool game to show off to people who never seen anything like it for pocket pc.Yes it might cause some arguement and a fist fight or too. Maybe even some laughter,but its free,which is the best thing of all.
cool
ahahahaha just got my phone and this is the coolest game ever.
Wow, some people really need to grow a sense of humor.
It's been almost 9 years now, get over it. People die every day in poor countries around the world and nobody gives a d***. Just because it happened in the US for once, people are supposed to feel bad for several years about it? Bah...
What about Tiger Woods vs his wife? Berlusconi vs a call girl (or maybe a free journalist)? Maybe Kim Jong Il vs the South Korean Prime Minister? Maradona vs Pele? Bill Gates vs Steve Jobs?
tiger woods
Well if you do a quick search in xda , there is a funny and fun tiger woods girls game.
I can see the problem if it only showed one side but it shows both. Anyway dont worry about holy than thou people its just a game and games like GTA are much worst.

can windows phone7 play against xbox live players on your phone

Windows Phone7 is shaping up too be a monster. Well as far as gaming is concerned. As much as they are concentrating on gaming,they should call it Xbox mobile7 hahahaha.
Can other people who found online photos of windows phone games post it here so we can have a collection.
Wow...
That is so fake it actually made me cry a little.
First person shooters are barely playable with a console controller; What makes you think a touchscreen will be remotely playable?!
How do you move, aim, and shoot at the same time?!

Where exactly have you been? Xtracts is a 3D 1st person shooter and runs perfect. They even have Doom for pocket pc. You should check online before you make silly comments. They even have Assasins Creed 3D .....where have you been?

Um no. Xtrakts is a 3rd person shooter, Assassins creed is a 3rd person adventure game. Doom is the only one you listed that is a FPS. You should learn what your talking about before you accuse others of making silly comments.
I h8 that way online gaming got on consoles. And that bad way jumps over to you phones and computers. Online register, payed updates, completely dependent on the vendors servers etc..
Also it is impossible to play on Phone agains Computer or XBox players ->
Mouse>Gamepad>Finger
some people love to disagree
Xtracts,assasins creed, and doom all example of complex games that people thought werent possible. Now I gone online and scoped out infomation. Iam not about to put everything I know here that would take pages. So for nagle go look online and research before you jump gun ready to attack. The information is all out there. Even my website has a wealth of knowlegde on windows phone7. I dont deal with rumors ethier , I speak on what has been confirmed by Microsoft.

Well I was in no way attacking I'm just correcting you. 3rd person= you seeing the character your playing, example xtrakt and assassins creed. First person = you looking through the characters eyes, doom is a great example of this. But as far as playing any newer FPS on a phone, yes they can make it happen but I highly doubt it would be remotely enjoyable. Even FPS on the psp suck because of not having dual analog sticks.

microsoft
Now microsoft has made it where you can play indiana jones on the phone save your game and continue it on your XBOX . Thats amazing!!
The title is very misleading
The title suggests I can be playing any Xbox 360 game, online against my mates, then simply pick up my phone and carry on. This is exactly what Microsoft want - people spreading incorrect rumours that they themselves are not responsible for.
There will be some games that you can play on the Xbox 360 and then continue to play on your phone, but it will only be games that are designed to do this. This will not include the big blockbusters. As it's already been pointed out in this thread, it is simply not possible to play a fully fledged 1st person shooter (a real one - not some pretend one) on a touchscreen, with full control. It's taken years for the console developers to come up with the current controllers, and they can't be replaced with 2 thumbs on a touchscreen.
If I'm wrong and it turns out that a future rendition of Call of Duty does work on WP7, then I take all this back and thoroughly look forward to sitting at my console and seeing you online on your phone, because you won't stand the slightest chance.
not misleading at the time was posted but there have been changes
Yes when this was 1st posted Microsoft had said that you be able to play mulit-player against other players. Now that everything is finalized Microsoft has said games made with XNA will be able to be played online against XBOX players. The title has truth I never said any game . Honestly I myself wont be developing for windows phone7 , I stick to 6.5 because I dont see too many people buying this new phone.

That wasn't a silly comment.
These games may look good, but they are not of the level of games on a console platform. That particular game has 1 analog stick for both movement and looking. This will never please a real gamer. Consider that a modern day console has 2 analog sticks, a direction pad, 4 main buttons, 4 front buttons, and the 2 sticks can both be used as buttons as well as moving and looking, at the same time! That's too much to put on a touchscreen, so a phone will never be as good as a console. It's literally a completely different market.

[Q] Will Android ever seen games like Infinity Blade?

I couldn't help but realize that Android could never get something as detailed as Infinity Blade, but is there hope? And what handset could handle such graphics?
Here is the trailer/article of Infinity Blade:
http://www.redmondpie.com/epic-game...for-iphone-4-is-mind-blowingly-awesome-video/
Well the Samsung Galaxy S has a more powerful GPU than the iPhone 4 (SGX540 vs iPhone's SGX535). So theoretically better games can be made for Android.
But with Android being so widespread the high end games won't run on all Android phones. For example, my old HTC Hero doens't have OpenGL 2.0 support and sucks at all types of gaming.

The main problem isnt the hardware, android has the hardware to support most iOS games (excluding the first few models) but we're lacking the developer support. One day they might realise and then start android development, and then we'd have the definitively winning devices
Well both ID with their RAGE mobile engine have said they are using it for android development and EPIC has shown their unreal engine running on android...both on tablet and phone...its a matter of time now
the short answer... no at the moment.
Despite the fact I loathe apple, one thing I have to give to them is that their graphic engine for 3d games is much more superior than any android on the market.
Just compare playing Hero of Sparta on a SGS(which I own) as opposed to the Ipod touch. You can really feel the lag on the android.
However considering the fact that Sony annouced the PSP android phone, which is scheduled for next year, I am sure it is a issue that would be addressed by next year,
Apple has all good games, android do but not that much. I hope next year more developers will be porting games to android. I really would like to have a tap tap revenge on my vibrant.
I also think its quite difficult to develop games on the android due to the large range of resolutions and styles of each android phone. its a lot easier to develop a game if its based on a single type of phone with a single resolution - like the iphone is.
You guys are right. Perhaps is a matter of time, once they some how manage the fragmentation, like creating a gaming classification for handset manufacturers to encourage developers to make apps to that set class.
Hmmmm,
They should require a "minimum specification" phone for more advanced games (i.e >=1Ghz, >=Adreno 205/SGX535, <=512Mb ram, < 800*600 pixels screen, etc).
No one would expect a game like Crysis, etc to run on an Atom CPU? Why should it be any different on mobile phones?

iphone DO NOT HAVE Standard resolution any more
Iphone 4: Retina Display 640X960
Iphone 1/2/3: HVGA 320X480
and almost all android games can now run on QVGA/HVGA/WVGA without problems
it's just a developer thing...

This is exactly 2x size of iP3. Also the screen in iP4 from the API is handled the same as iP3 (so the resolution is treated as 320x480) but on iP4 we can have half-pixels, thus we can display a small dot in the position 100.5 that has size of 0.5 pixel. So this is exactly the same screen from developer's point of view.
The problem is money. If there was infinity blade for android people will file-share instantly. Iphone there are jailbreakers , but most of iphone population doesnt mind paying for the game.

Um... you never heard of Installous??? It's the one and only best iPhone black market app that provides the most convenient way of downloading pirated apps, where as for Android you need to rely on warez sites, then transferring them onto your device and then browse for it to install.
So technically the ratio of piracy on iOS is much much greater than Android. I haven't met a single person where I live that doesn't have Installous.

I have a few friends with iPhones that pirate apps, and none of my friends with androids do. Also when it comes down to it iOS or Android, the majority of users aren't pirating apps.
You need to Jailbreak to use installous. You don't need root to install warez. Might affect your ratios...
Before i Jailbroke all my friends iDevices and showed them installous I didn't know anyone apart from myself that used installous. Cant really judge this just by the ppl around you.
All I can be sure of is what i know, and i know my inexperienced mind was much happier to install warez on my unrooted hero than it was to jailbreak my iPod touch.
It's really not safe to pirate apps on android. I remember one guy here reported that his phone got a virus because of installing pirated apps. That's why I don't think about pirating apps, and all the apps I need are free. :-D

Its most definetly possible, infinity blade only looks good because they use normal mapping and other tricks to give a "hi-res" model look, the problem was there wasnt really any android game engines that easily support those features, and its only supported on open gls 2.0.
Unity3d for android has come out afew months ago for the public and it supports all the fancey extras to get that graphically edge, same with unreal 3 engine, dungeon defenders was done in that and it looks pretty damn good, but i dont know when the android version of U3 will be released.
Im currently developing a game in unity3d and im blown away with current tests to how powerful these devices actually are.
edit:
Keep in mind infinity blade is a pretty crap game, swipe swipe swipe, repeat,

Did you read the whole articule before saying thats a bad statement. The articule tells you its an exception rather than the rule.
Look its very simple to understand. Developers will go where they will make the most money. Sure iphone has jailbreakers which I stated in my 1st post. But Android has easy file-sharing access. No developer will bust his a$$ just to make $100 off a game that takes him 6 months to make.
File-sharing is easy on android just like windows mobile 6,6.1, and 6.5 . Unless developers can make money the way they do in the iphone market , they will not make the games for Android. This is not opinion but plain real life facts.

Shadowgun on GS2? Mali-400 fast but not compatible with the best games?

Hello to all the XDA community.
The following post is for those who do not feel as comfortable with the galaxy s2 device, with its Mali-400 graphics chip, although the chip itself is very powerful not provide all the features to play the most beloved games in the today. Among those who find: Sprinkles, shadowgun etc etc.
In my opinion, the cell is very fast and I really like the screen, but unfortunately when I take the iPhone 4 of my girlfriend i want to have it for me, because although the chip A4 already has more than a year now can run games that Mali -400 could not run, it's very stressful having to root your phone to play with chainfire3D, only a few games.
I ..... loving samsung galaxy line. This phone will definitely change for the iphone 5
Why? it seems unfair that i have a cell phone much better than the iphone 4 but unable to play most of the best games.

Okay.
Don't buy something unless you know what you're buying. You're gonna be real disappointed when you buy a car and then find out that it doesn't fly or make you bacon.
You're not gonna get much help here, coming into an Android forum and telling us that our phone can't do something an iPhone can. It's not conducive to helpful responses, as it sounds like trolling and is a pointless statement.
It's because game developers are not using industry standard filtering and texture compression for the games. Mali 400 supports industry standards only, so when a game uses a propriety Nvidia or Power vr or whatever branded code, it won't work because to support the code, you need to pay licensing fees to have the hardware support the code.
This is Sprinkle on my SGS 2, yes, i'm playing an NVIDIA TEGRA ******G GAME while I'm recording a video with screencaster, try to do this with an iPhone mate
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxHZE9e2Fj8
It does take a nice amount of ****tardation not to realize that iOS is a better platform for games. Next time you'll look more closely before you throw your money on something: don't blame Samsung/Android, blame yourself. Now bye.

Why? it seems unfair that i have a cell phone much better than the iphone 4 but unable to play most of the best games.
Watch this video, record from my SG2.

Really? Is it stressful?
You should put more effort into deciding what devices are right for you before buying them...
Aside from the GS2 being arguably the best phone available right out of the box for everything aside from tegra-optimised games (which as others have stated is due to developer's lack of support for industry standards used by the GS2 rather than the other way around)... Like most android devices it's most suited to those who like to tinker and customise.
Buy an iPhone 5.

Send me your GS2 then? As you seem to prefer your iPhone anyways.
I'll find a good use of it.

Okay.
Don't buy something unless you know what you're buying. You're gonna be real disappointed when you buy a car and then find out that it doesn't fly or make you bacon.

Yes I was dissapointed that my car didn't make my bacon.
Maybe I should have went to XDcAr and read up on it first to find out that my car could not do it before I bought it.
My car does fly (at an altitude of 0.01mm) - but only where there is no speed cameras about.
OP,I feel ya.When I bought my GS2 I was really disappointed that it didn't make coffee.I called Samsung to solve my problem,but they insulted me.They were very rude man.They told me "Go buy a f*cking coffee machine!".But I bought the best phone available!Can't I do it with an app?
Seriously,although that was a terrible joke,what did you expect man?Nothing is perfect,get over it.My PC can't play Final Fantasy XIII.AND it doesn't support something like Chainfire3D to play PS3 games(**** if it did ).Get over it.Even if you want games that much,there are gazillions of nice games in the Android Market,and more are bound to come.And with the success of the GS2 it's only bound to get better.Just get the heck over it.
Dont entirely blame it on a device for your shortcomings also. Learn to accept some of the blame and you are on your way to maturity.

oh come on peeps why all the harsh replys!!!
he asked a decent question , yes its easy to say if you wanted games buy an iphone4 , at the same time it is still a decent question .
its a shame that the mali is getting left out the cpu/gpu combon on the sgs2 is immense and very very powerfull it would be great to have games like the one linked avalible
i knew the sgs2 wouldnt have every iphone game but when i see games like this i do think , my phone could run this easy and i wouldnt mind playing it , whas wrong with that and asking why the sgs2 doesnt have games like this
maybe it isnt as easy to code for?? we have over 10 million sgs2 users now so the market is there , is it devs being lazy and not porting it , is it hard to port things to the mali , from chainfire 3-d it doesnt seem like its hard to apply stuff to get games working that are coded for say nvidia but what about how hard it is for gameloft to make these games for the mali
to the op , dont worry about some of the negative awnswers i thought it was a decent question and i do think its a shame the mali is being left out a bit when it is soooooo dam good with soooooooooo many users worldwide
have a good day everyone and maybe try to be a bit nicer to fellow users , treat others as you wish to be treated springs to mind as does if you have nothing nice to say maybe dont say anything 2 pages of people taking the mick out of the op for asking a sensible question and saying things like ''my sgs2 wont make coffee'' is just a bit out of order really and isnt anything like what he was saying

Some people on these forums really take their phones too seriously. Why all the nasty and snide remarks?
I wish Shadowgun was on Android! Runs pretty good on my iPad 1. But damn it would look good on the GSII screen.

SG2
hello to everyone.
Sorry if I offended, some of the users that have this phone.
is not my intention to devalue the SG2, but actually I think that to be the best phone should support any things without any problem, maybe it's difficult because different graphics chip, ATI may start manufacturing their own as well. possibly be deciding whether Nvidia or ATI.
the cell phone itself is very fast and the screen size is the maximum that I would buy for a smarphone to me is very good
If you wanted to phone Mainly for games, you got an iPhone Should Have.
I think all cell phone makers have to have this in their creations, to avoid incompatibility and make users
samsung unfortunately not put the grates 2 in the SG2, definitely would be a very good phone for games too.
but really do not see it? A4 over a year on the market and is still compatible with current games.
many people have the SG2, samsung should invest money so we can play these lines did not sell many games SG2?

In fact in the post, you can read the game plays perfectly on the iphone 4. and need not have any application, just download it and install it ready.
I am very interested in doing running in the SG2 can you help?

Well,I don't think anyone here was actually offended,nor do I think that anyone tried solely to insult you.It's just a matter of asking credible things.Whatever the iPhone is,its architecture and the software it supports haven't changed much(If at all) since the first iPhone.Every version follows the same principles,uses hardware of the same "Family" (eg PowerVR GPUs),so whatever new comes out for a new iDevice,it will instantly become available for its older bretheren.Android is different.I don't think that it will be long before you see this kind of games on the GS2 if you ask me,so in my opinion you should just keep the better device.Guess which one solves the "X=Win" equation.
Kind enough for everyone here?

Future of Tablet Gaming

So, I bit the bullet and bought a Prime, I had talked myself out of it about 9 million times, was going to buy a used one from chin-a-ling (sorry mate) but my fiancee pushed me, and pushed me and I finally bought one... I am in love.
But the title says it all, I am wondering what the future is going to be. My hope is to end up being able to play Portal on this thing one day. With the fact that Bethesda has mentioned possible tablet ports of older titles, Valve has always been one to examine all unique possibilities. It would be incredible to be Chell running through the hall way, aiming and then tapping where I want the portal
Anyways, what does everyone else think? Looking forward to seeing what the major companies might do? Games you hope to see ported or even developed as a standalone counterpart from your favorite series?

I think tablet gaming especially on iOS has a bright future. Some of iOS's best exclusives have trickled their way to Android. But there is still a lot to be desired on the Android platform as far as games go. Currently EPIC is making fantastic games for iOS through ChAIR Entertainment. Hopefully they will one day embrace Android.
Well ios has infinity blade and usually gets games a bit earlier. That's about it IMHO.
Android has amazing emulators and most importantly full gamepad support.
There are also some really nice looking tegra3 exclusives coming. Definately infinity blade lvl of graphics.
I'd say the future is bright. Me personally I'm hoping for point and click adventures getting big on tablets. They perfect for touch control.
Gaming on tablets and Prime will be SICK! Just watch. Already amazed at the types of games I'm playing already. And I don't play b.s. ones like angry birds or whatever. Lol hardcore gamer here.
I used to be a hardcore gamer before I joined the Navy but after I got out I haven't had time with school, but I am a huge Portal/Half Life Fan, as well as a few of the other artsy FPS games e.g. Mirrors Edge. I KNOW the Tegra 3 can handle it, it is a matter of whether or not the big guys will believe in the future of tablet/mobile gaming. It is a growing segment of serious gamers, and I think that tablet ownership would increase as games become more innovative/complex.

And it works like a charm. It never ceases to amaze me that the first time I played day of the tentacle I had to clear my 40MB(!) hdd before I could install it, was supplied om an enormous amount of floppy disks, took ages to install and now I can play it on a apparatus small enough to fit in my pocket (in case of my galaxy nexus)...
They need to bring the Broken sword series to Android. I have both games on Ipad n loved them. Like a touch point n click. Graphics n storyline is very good.
I installed onlive and am playing all sorts of pc games.
It works great with the Xbox 360 controller.
Onlive? Huh, I'll check it out! Thanks for the idea!

There's an app or method to get apps not available in your area or whatever. I forgot what it was. I would think as long as you have a decent to fast internet connection, Onlive should work fine for you. Plus its a free app so technically someone could upload the free apk for you to use. Worth a shot.

that wouldn't even matter. he just make a free account then sign in. there's nothing in the app that's esteeming location, I don't think. I would think as long as he make an account, which is just providing email address and making a user name, he would be good. worth a try. nothing to lose.
