Quake 3 on HTC Diamond

Hello,
i've running Quake 3 on my HTC Diamond with bepe 0.53. Got only 1 FPS, but it runs. I think there is no HW-Driver for OpenGL.
Is our Diamond slow like my old XDA Orbit 2?

o wow, hmmm i'm sure there is a way to get the game running smoothly just that it needs to be able to utilise the on-board GPU... this is not my area of expertise but there is almost always a way ...

i dont think the quake 3 port is even gonna make 5 FPS in the far future.
Not for the diamond anyway

Hi, How do you install Quake3 ?
Because I tested it and it doesn't work
Thanks a lot for explain to me.

guys a tryed the game on my old touch dual im getting 3 FPS in a wide area and in a smole area getting 5 FPS
the game need hardware keys like
fire = green botton
start (menu) = camera button (you need this for exiting the game)
its not playable
but you can show it to your friands and they will say

What about running Doom?
My old Nokia 7710 could run doom it was pretty cool.

there are free ports of
wulfenstein
duke3d
doom1-2
quake1-3
heretic
hexen(heretic2)
google will show the way
most of them only do software rendering as far as i know
so even a driver which did both opengl and dx would not help

these games you can also see them running on my kaiser on youtube!
http://www.youtube.com/user/mikeeey1337
heretic and hexen ports no longer exist, no avaible for download anywhere. Hexen I still have, but can only run in portrait, but i really want heretic.
trust me, ive done lots of googling, and yahooing! lol.

i've done small modifications to get this game running on my diamond. only 1 FPS is very strange, but there are no graphic-bugs or something. Its high quality and on this fantastic display it looks like a photoshop rendered image. sharp, sharper, diamond =)
i will shot some fotos and upload my hole package.

Can you give us your modified quake 3
I would like to test it.
thanks
oh ! excuse me, I didn't read your last sentence

his version is not modified, just the same old version, I think it works the same as with the o2 xda flame, just deletel the supplied libgles_cm, and the game need to make use of the one in the windows folder!
donwload the non accel one 1.1(b), the axim version will look for the libgles_CL.
btw on flame I get on average 15 fps with high quality settings

Haha, Q3.. would be fun to bring togeather a couple of friends with the diamond and play q3 multiplayer on the phones.. he he.
Btw, got Day of the Tentacle and Monkey Island 1 /2 up and running using scummvm.
And some other oldschool games with the help of pocet version of dosbox.
Brings back some good old memories

Different display for TV out and Screen??

I am playing with the TV-out function on my phone... I went looking all over for a tv out cable, ended up trying my old Zen Vision:M 60gb (the fat one) video out cable, worked perfectly! now i'm wondering if i could have something different display on the TV than on my screen, like doing a power point presentation, and having presenter view on my screen, and the slideshow on the TV. Playing SNES games on the tv, and having just the controller showing on the screen. watching a movie on the tv and having the play/pause slider bar, on the screen. or EVEN having a video on the tv and using my phone for other things at the same time...
tl;dr - does anyone think i can multi-screen with the TV out on my phone, or is it locked to displaying whats on the phone?

First of all: how is this a development question, are you currently researching code to solve your quest?
Second: You do remember your holding a phone not a media laptop? Is it not a bit much to ask for ...

Doubtful because the TV-out is a complete copy of the screen.
It does not process anything itself.
Sorry to disappoint.

NOT TRUE, With some devices you can have only controls on the phone screen while watching video on TV...

Your rude/smartass tone is unacceptable, especially for a first post. Act like that and you won't last very long around here.

This will be possible with the next generation chipset (which was announced recently). For now it can not be done.

Really which devices.
I am not trying to be rude. I'm asking this as a serious question.

It's possible over WiFi using DLNA compatible devices or various less universal remote control solutions. None of those have anything to do with the TV out ofcourse.

We could see this feature in the next samsung phone or TAB. I heard that samsung is working now with nvidia for using the Tegra processor. Maybe it'll have a split tv out feature or similar with the one on computers - secondary and primary screen.
@ sargasso : It's not a dumb question lol . I'm playing quake 3 on my phone (even on network with others) and you say it's to much to ask from a phone ?!? These 1 gig phones from totay's technoloy are no simple devices anymore, they can handle allmost anythig and can do actualy a lot of thing that notebooks do. With a dual screen view feature it's not about "if" or "not posible", but when. And "when" is very soon. Remember that not long ago there were notebooks with less hardware than these phones.
Mark my words (love this line from Matrix) ! - Pretty soon we'll see not only a split tv out but a new feature in wich you swipe the picture from your phone toward the lcd tv(via wifi/dlna) just like in the James Bond movie. Anything is posible. Next year the phones will even recieve a dual core cpu.

Yeah I dug up my old tv out cable which came with my N95 and that work perfectly...
I'd prefer hdmi out though.....

Most likely available before H2 - 2011
...a native triple display controller, and on-chip HDMI 1.3a interface.

Ok thanks all for the info.
Yes i may have put it in the wrong forum, i'm sorry, i wasn't sure where to put it.
It is running on linux, and it has the ability to do multiple outputs, so it was just a matter of asking if the hardware could support it.
Alexzander - i would love to see james bond style information sharing, tossing files across the room to your friend, or putting something on the tv for everyone to see just by a gesture!

For tossing files around, I believe there's already an app for that: Hoccer.
Haven't tried it yet, though.

Anyone ever get any info on this. I'm wondering if it's possible to turn the screen of while using tv out, for example when playing a movie. I don't want to shorten my screens life.

Now I found proof of this concept. That is definately something different on both screens. Now we need a way to control this ourselves.

my honest initial impression is it runs almost as if its a native app
while some may not like the change to use universal audio versus in app audio, I thought it was a nice touch
listening to some music under my lock screen was also a great addition
overall I'm impressed

Hey Atta and Mike,
congratulations on the release. With Metrotube you guys haven't only raised the bar for all 3rd party developments out there, but official apps as well. You can really be proud of yourselves. If I hadn't purchased LazyTube/Metrotube months ago, I would definitely do so now.

Yeah Cool thx

First of all good job it is looking nice
Second, do you use the mp4's for video playback or do you use flv?
Also would it be possible to retrieve the results of the desktop youtube? Since Im getting the results of the mobile youtube, which misses a lot of videos.
Keep it up man, it looks promising!

If i could, i'd buy it right now.

I purchased and its by far the best Youtube app for WP7!

You know, I had been avoiding this app as just another Youtube app that did no better than visiting the site, itself. I finally tried it out of boredom and I have to say that I'm highly impressed. It's intuitive, functional, and quick. Damned good job. I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Really amazing! Nice job.
I would like to know if you plan on adding a download option in future?

Same here, i can't view/play almost any of the VEVO videos.

Best youtube app so far....supertube have to catch up...
And yea i cant view or play VEVO videos =(

Thank you for this app, really liking it. However, here are some suggestions:
When watching a video in full screen and enlarging it, the video is not centered but shifted to the right or to the bottom (depending on the aspect ratio of the video)
There should be an option to resume playback
Could you add an option to disable the flipping of the application tile?
Oh yes, and the possibility to download videos would be great!
Keep up the good work

Bump. Please post the XAP here since you're pulling this off the Marketplace LazyWormApps. Thanks.

Please give us your xap as we already paid for your excellent app
I hate Google

Hopefully someone can get the XAP. Will suck badly if a hard reset was required and unable to get this app back.

Will it be allowed to post the xap here after they pulled it from the market?

Where To Find 2K Videos?

So I got this fancy new phone with 2K resolution so where can I get a video to blow my friends away? YouTube seems to only stream up to 1080p even though several of the videos say 2K.

On the g3 there was an apk floating around that supported 2k video in the YouTube app maybe google or search the forums for that particular YouTube apk. If I'm not mistaken the web version of YouTube allows this as well.

To watch it on 4k TV. Also frame grabs from video are much better quality and you can zoom in, without loss of quality when using phone for watching and actually I use it very often on my Note 3, since with fixed lens framing is always far from perfect and there is always option of not using 4k video at all.

thanks a ton. some great examples here

Never mind. The youtube app only allows 720p even if the video is posted in 4K

Here is the youtube app that allows 1440p video .... delete your recent youtube app and reboot and disable auto update from google playstore and install the one that i posted

i think depends on Youtube,not Droid.

Use viral pro and get rid of YouTube, viral pro is way better and streams way faster. Try the free version.

This is a youtube issue. Other qHD phones lost their 1080/1440p options as well. There are a lot of 1 star reviews on the play store complaining about this. I hope they give us 1440p back soon!

I tried the free version of viral, I really like it so far. Being able to play videos over another app is amazing. The problem is I can still only watch videos at 720p.
I remember reading somewhere right after the phone came out that it may be an issue with the turbo, specifically after the ota that was released day one. People were saying that they were able to watch videos at 1440p before they installed that update. Of course now I can't find the thread where I read that to confirm.
Really hoping that we get Lollipop relatively quickly. Thinking that will fix some of the little software bugs the phone has.

found an older one that I least gives me 1080p
5.13.3-51303300

I have the Sony Xperia Z3v which has a 1080p screen and YouTube only works at 720p for it as well. So I believe it is an app issue and not related to the phone.

guys look at my post about the YouTube number

This is not the case, I have viral and u can watch whatever quality u want as long as the YouTuber is doing it in that quality. It has nothing to do with the Turbo I guarantee you. Not every YouTuber does it in the same quality, sometimes I'm watching 2K and other times I can only watch 360P. Again it's all in what the YouTuber is using to record it. For example go to MKBHD or Phonedogs channel, they usually have videos in 2K.

I understand how youtube works, and yes I know that not all videos are capable of higher resolutions.
I have tried using viral with multiple videos, videos that are definitely high enough resolution, like the 4K gopro videos on youtube. I even tried some of the videos from phonedogs as you mentioned. None will play at higher than 720p on my phone when using viral or the youtube app. My friend who has an LG G3 is able to play at 1440p without issues. Definitely seems like an issue with the phone to me.

Yeah still nothing. Tried installing older youtube version and viral. Nothing. WTF good is a 4k screen if there is nothing you can watch in 4k.

Note 4 has the same problem. Don't know what's up. My S4 and Moto X 2014 and One Max all work properly.
