What are some good games Aria ppl are trying? I know its small screen will deter some from playing games but it can handle alot.
I've been playing the Sims 3 for a while but I think there are some better graphic ones that it could do as well. The emulators are retro but has anyone tried psx4droid? Id like some feedback on that. MT3GS ppl say some psx games are laggy!

Well I know the screen is small so I found that you can use a wii controller.

You can do one of these with the WiiMote too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rxJq6tQVw8&feature=related
As far as games go, I haven't downloaded many. I like Traffic Jam tho. I probably won't install any emulators for a while. I'm having too much fun with customizations to have anytime for games haha.
Guitar Hero is great

have you guys actually tried this on your aria? Or are you saying it is possible. Because from what i've been reading/tried, it isn't.

Nah, I haven't tried it. I just thought it was pretty crazy and wanted to share the video.
yea, unfortunately... the bluetooth stack used in our phones are not compatible with the wiimote. So unless that changes, you're not going to have any luck using that particular remote.

Not true. I have hooked up my wiimote to play game boy advance games.
Things you will need:
1. Rooted phone.
2. CyanogenMod rom. Nothing with HTC Sense. Again if you are using Stock, Stock w/Root, or Liberated Stock it will not work.
3. Goto market, download "Wiimote Controller" by C.C.P. [email protected]
4. Follow Setup on the app. It will set up as another keyboard. Only useful for a handful of other apps, but like I said I use it for GBA
thanks for replying, i've been trying to find out if the cyanogen rom made changes to the bluetooth stack. Asked it twice and no resonce in that thread. Figures that I'd get an answer here lol.
This is good to know that it works when i make the switch from liberated to cyanogen

Thanks. It is awesome. I'm gonna try Gameboid later and see if I can get Advance Wars for it.
Guns 'n' Glory FREE is a great tower defense like game with a Western cowboys and indians twist. even the free version is hard enough to keep anyone entertained for a good while.
I like the games My Paper Plane 2, and Home run Battle 3D... The touch screen controls on the aria such too much for proper emulator gaming

Since not many people talked about the emulators, I guess I shall write a bit.
So I've been playing around with the emulators for the past week or so. I have the SNESoid, Gameboid, and PSX4droid emulators. Anyway first the SNES emulator. For the most part, games play pretty well. There is some occasional slowdown but not much. There is a bit lag though on games that use the SA-I processor (mario rpg and kirby super star). Sound on a few games are a little choppy but for the most part, it's decent. Just have to tinker with the settings. Games like super mario world (i have all stars) plays very well. Chrono trigger plays nicely too. I have close to 20 roms right now.
Next is the Gameboid emulator. I have a few roms for the gba emulator (FFI and FFII, and a gundam game, have tried a few others but decided to delete them lol..). I must say, the gba emulator runs the best. It's seems like the Aria hardware was made to play gba games lol. There's no lag whatsoever and the sound is great! I find it ironic because the gba had better hardware than the snes so you would think the snes roms would play better. I think later I'll try more roms like advanced wars or something.
Last is the PSX4droid emulator. Well let's just say it can play the games. First game I tried was chocobo racing. It was a little slow and the sound was bad. Then I tried digimon world 3. The game played well but a little slow and the sound was also bad lol. I'm going to try brave fencer musashi and warcraft II next. Both are currently being downloaded.
Oh btw...I suppose it would make a difference but during my gaming, I only had around 30-40mb of ram. Maybe I should've killed the other apps to gain more memory. I suppose it would run a bit better?
Angry birds beta is the funnest game i've played on the aria yet!

Good review, I've only tried snesoid thus far. Super mario rpg did see a bit of a speed up for me when I switched to cyanogen. I think I still had to set it to skip a 4 frame max though. The audio was fairly bearable then.

do you have app-sideloading enabled? if you're using liberated rom R004 or higher it should have an app to enable it.
if so, try downloading it to your SD Card and install from there through your phone.
Thanks for your help! I got it to work after messing with it a bit (and uninstalling like all of the games I had on my phone...)
You're the man! Thanks for the linkage. Installed and I'm working through it again. They definitely did a ton of cleanup between final release and the beta version.
Now, does anybody have a link or apk for reckless racing ?
apolagies if this has been raised but is anyone else noticing the game lag in particularly when the ads pop up?

yeah it lags more in the levels after you get the fat black birds. and the animation of their explosion is completely missing. not a huge issue though.

if you intend on playing it for long periods, go to settings and turn off your internet/data connection before.. it stops the ads from appearing and *almost completely* reduces the lag.
Fully addicted to this game beat all the levels, waiting for more.
Just received an email from Rovio basically stating that Angry Birds is now supported on the Eris! It now shows up in the Market for us. Downloading now.
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App
Yup, it works. Runs a little slow so far though.
me too! me too! taking forever to download but i cant wait for a full functioning game
This makes me happy! Just downloaded it. Doesn't run very smooth at all. But none the less it makes me happy to see the birds and pigs on my screen!
So, I assume they resized it for the screen? That's the only issue I had with "forcing" it on my Eris. It was still playable enough for me to master the beta.
If resizing it would fix the background not showing up then yes. Unfortunately now that it displays it's extremely laggy I would almost say the forced version was more fun to play.
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App
Yes it sucks now and it makes me sad
+1...
i guess our little Eris' can't handle the textures.... might have to push the old one and deal with 'snow'....
Agree. Played better without all the textures working. And besides, the invisible background added to the challenge!
Maybe if enough of us complain they will fix the "laggyness".
Wonder if we could just strip down the apk and make sort of like an 8 bit version. Or at least one with less demanding graphics. They also added the full video ads into this one and more live ads to the game. I feel like the live rendering of those bog down the game a lot. I was more happy with the lder version i almost beat every little sans the background it never really bothered me because i could always just figure the lvl out through trial and error. Now it's not even playable.
Turning on Airplane Mode improves performance a little bit, at lease the ads are gone.
Or install adfree if your rooted. Still some lag but not nearly as bad.

Amazing, makes a huge difference, still a little laggy but now at least playable.
I've noticed it always shows as installed on the SD card despite the fact I don't use apps2sd or anything like that. If thats true I wonder if an SD card better than the stock class 2 would make things any better?

For those that are dealing with the lag.. like me, i've posted the older 1.3.5: http://www.mediafire.com/file/2ehvwqbegrurbe7/com.rovio.angrybirds135.apk

It may. I use the custom apps2sd that was created for 2.1 and older ROMs and bought a class 6 16GB card (bought that before i found out there is very little difference in performance between the Class 4 and the Class 6). Can't tell the difference in speed between the apps running from the built in RAM and the apps running from the SD card.
Don't see why you shouldn't see similar results with Google implementation of apps2sd. But try installing it to your phone directly first and compare before you plunk any cash down.
Question: I can't install angry birds! It downloads from the market and then says installing for about 2 seconds then says "installation unsuccessful." Any ideas? I'm running kaosfroyo

I thought I was the only one with the not installing problem.... I hope someone can answer that cause I've used the custom installed but the some of the structures in the puzzels were just white. Making it hard to play... I saw that it was in the market, but it wont install. This is mu first post so please be nice. SPELLING AND OTHER ERRORS. lol
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
First thing is to check to make sure you have enough available space on your phone's internal storage: Settings --> SD card & phone storage. Angry Birds takes a good 14-15MB of space, fairly large for an android app.
If you have apps2sd running i'd recommend using Root Explorer to check how much storage you have left in your 'data/app' folder.

i was able to install it by doing this.
put the apk somewhere on your phones internal storage
unmount sd card
use file manager, astro root yand, to locate file and install that way
mount sd card
i have heard some people having issues doing it this way, but since i dont use app2sd i havent had any issues
hope this helps
I just flashed kaos froyo and now no mater where or how i install the .apk angry birds refuses to install.
OK, I posted this in the old Angry Birds thread, but it got no comments, so I'm not sure anyone is paying attention to it anymore. Anyways, I'm so excited to have Angry Birds working properly finally, so thought I'd try to share again.
See this thread for details and download:

It works great for me on Floyo 1.2 with the latest OpenGL patch.
EDIT: The above link no longer works. The apk can now be downloaded at the following two links although I haven't checked to see if they are the exact same version (there have been a couple patched versions of this game).

? What patch? Using 1.1 and have still white textures....
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
The thread I linked to in the first post has a patched version of Angry Birds with the missing textures added back in, but somehow optimized to still run at decent speeds. So you'll need download and install the apk from that thread.
The newest version of OpenGL may or may not have any effect on gameplay. I just mentioned that I was using it in case it does make a difference for some.
yep working really well on elelinux 6.2

It is missing (the ground like a horizontal strip under the catapult) but I was assuming that since I am using an ad blocker and that's where the ads would go.... right?
Nope, it only happens on the Hero, tryed it on a Lg and the ground texture is there.
Angry birds will never run on the Hero
Without the textures, i.e. "fixed" version, even I get lag, and I have a processor that will happily sit at 748 when needed...

So they've been saying ever since the beta came out. then the full version came out and it was a little better. Then it was updated and made it 10x worse and then they got bored and released seasons...
Still though. Lets hope! Ive gone off angry birds lately anyway, Ive completed it (even with a tiny bit of lag on this version) so unless there are new levels in the reworked official release then I wont be needing it.
Shame really that xda members can crack on at it faster
Thread above is down - any possibility to get a patched Version of it?
Rovio has said that they will be releasing a Hero friendly version of Angry Birds shortly, so be patient and hopefully an official working version will be available in the Market soon.
I seem to have deleted the apk for the patched version anyways, so I can't post it up. Sorry.

where/how are you guys getting ROMS for this and the playstation emulator?
i used to use what I believe was called Rom Finder (premium) but I believe it was removed from the market. and even upon side loading the SDK it tells me that I need the newest version to download ROMS. any suggestions for using this or a new source? I would prefer a direct app on the xoom to do this although i havent been able to find another one.
You just can search it on Google, and for the ROMS, in any web of ROMS and Emulator, just watch the end of the file "Example.N64". If there's no problem for some mods or something i can upalod the apk.
See ya!

You are right no BIOS needed. I have Honeycomb 3.1 with the latest Tiamat Xoom 1.4.2 and it runs great. I had purchased this app before it was in the market. I had to reinstall N64oid when I updated to 3.1 since all my applications were cleared.
Since you purchased this legitly on the android market you shouldn't have to worry. Remove the Titanium Backup version. Go to the Android Market and your purchased apps and install from there. Even though its removed from market since you purchased it you should still have access to download it like I do. Hopefully it will start working for you then!
i'm more concerned about gensoid being taken down than n64oid coming back up. that emu definitely needed a few updates that we probably wont get.

Unfortunately no. It thinks its the d pad so when you push the stick, its in all the way. Also you cant program the dpad and analog sticks differently.
