Angry Birds 1.4.2 Update

Well Rovio has released a new version of Angry Birds. Apparently according to their email they've sent out they've fixed the white landscapes for QVGA devices, which includes mytouch 3g 1.2. However I still experience the white landscape issue. Does anyone still have this issue or are they getting the full landscape like Rovio promised?

Magic is HVGA not QVGA.

It is? I swear it was QVGA. I guess that might be why it hasn't been fixed.
Edit: so I decided to download angry birds off the market and it works fine just lags.

isn't that a bit of an oxymoron? how can it work fine and yet lag? I think we should give up on angry birds or demanding games on the magic. It's past its prime (and programmers cannot be bothered optimising stuff, evidently).

When I meant fine I meant the landscape graphics were showing up now. I should have chosen better words. Lol

Yep lag is the only problem, im OC to 652 and still. But there all the colors and 45 new lvls...big bird rules

This update just killed the game for me... Ok, we got the landscapes but it's too dawn slow to be enjoyable now
Hopefully I have an HTC Desire coming to me in the following weeks, this will 'solve' the lag issue

Yeah Angry Birds ran fine on my MyTouch 1.2 except for the landscape issue. now the landscape issue is fixed, but it runs so laggy that it is unplayable. I would rather deal with the landscape issue and be able to play it then see it in all its glory and not be able to play it.

I think they should have an option to change graphics for lower end devices or something.

[Q] Angry Birds is too slow on my htc magic

It is installed on a class 4 sd card. Anyone has similar issue?

Try moving it to your internal memory. If it doesn't help, disable compcache and try again - and after taht if no luck yet, try clearing it's data.
I've not played it in a few weeks since I'm playing with ROMs.. But other people (@CM Forums) have said this helps them a bit.

The game is buggy itself, the phone is not a reason. I have the same Mytouch 3G, tried a lot of tweaks or methods described in different forums, but no effect, so the game is removed until a normal version comes out

There is an optimized version somewhere on the xda forums that gets rid of the ads and makes the game somewhat more playable on mytouch. It's being given out by Impaled.

The version Impaled dished out has ads again. The developer asked that he put them back in and he complied. I have the ad free version (b4 Impaled removed it) and my experience with it is the same: laggy and pretty much unplayable.

I think it has a lot to do with very little ram...
I downloaded the market gersion on my mytouch 1.2 and its laggy but playable.
But then again im using cm6.1, jit, comcache 18% and the vm heap size is 12m
also using ezterrys kernel with a 614 oc

I managed to install the game in the internal memory, but still slow.

i am still on 1.3.5 and with 28 radio it is alot better. get adfree, all my ads are gone.

or better yet like i posted in another thread before. Theres a game called Panda Vs Ninja its literally like Angry birds but runs perfectly smooth! Same gameplay just different characters.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848701

Pandas versus Ninjas plays the same as angry birds on my phone. Playable, but slows down during particle effects and heavy physics processing. I have to close everything and turn my clockrate up for it to play perfect.
it would be funny if someone "skinned" it with angry bird textures/sounds.

hmmm when i play it , it runs smoothly and barely slows down.
and yeah that would be pretty neat for someone to skin it hahaha

I'm very picky when it comes to running games and I will discard a game even if it has slight choppiness. PvN does run better than AB in the like that when it slows down it seems to go into a smooth slo-mo as oppose to AB going into choppy slo-mo, when there is a LOT of physics processing going on.

PvN is great on my MT3G 1.2 (rooted w/ Universal Androot and running CM6.1 RC1) and I actually prefer this over Angry Birds, mainly becuase I like the theme. But I would also download if there were an AB skin.

For me newest version (1.4.2)of Angry Birds laggs to much, version 1.3.5 is still the best one working

Did you try the new version? You can disable the background. It's running very good for me now ... not perfect but it's playable.

Raging Thunder lags like crap. Our Heros dont seem to be made for games or the hardwares are not utilised. The only games that work fine are those crappy 2d games and some 3d ones like, speedx.

paper toss
ninjump
tank hero
steamball
glyder 2 (a bit laggy, but its playable)
hyper jump (doodle jump clone, looks very good)
slice it
geared (doesn´t save the progress sometimes, don´t know why)

SNES Emulator worked also really good for me.

Motoxtreme
Tank Hero
Glow Hockey (didn't show up in market before my ginger rom, though. If it doesn't for you, you could try Air Hockey Speed )
Angry Birds Rio (a lot better than standard)
The FREE Tiger Emulators (Game Boy, Snes osv, makes me regret i bought Gameboid )

I am playing these games on my Hero.
Free Running
Maze
Minesweeper
Roller(lite)
SFCave
UConnect
Pool Master
Backgammon
Chalk Ball Lite
Robo Defense
Space Buster 3D
Glass Destroyer
Angry Frogs(Angry Birds is too laggy for Hero)
Tron Lights (for two players)
YooNinja

Pool break (Pro or Lite) is one of the best game I played on my Hero! This game is so realistic and really smooth, I was surprised that the hero could run a such game!

tank hero
angry birds
fruit ninja (nice game but ><)

What are your favorite games?

I know it's a pretty broad topic but I wanted to see what are some of the communities favorite games.. I never use to play games on my phone until recently and I must say, some can be kind of addicting lol.. I am by no means a "gamer" so that's why I thought it would be nice to get a conversation started regarding people's favorite games
Free or paid, it doesn't matter. If possible, post a Market link to the game your referencing and maybe a little description on why you like it
So, some of my favorite games thus far are pretty general
Battle Bears: Zombies
-I loved this game on my iPod.. The android version is pretty good.. Who doesn't love popping heads off pink bears?
Ninjump
-Simple and addicting. Love the simple UI
Angry Birds
-I don't really know why, but this has to be one of the most addicting games I have ever played..
Well so far those are the only games I've really played.. Your turn!

Asphalt 6, NFS:HP, Riptide GP, GT:Racing, Fingerboard, TrialX2, Spiderman, Minecraft.
