Angry Birds making me angry

Ive got a non-rooted android 2.1 Droid Eris. Ive downloaded the angry birds full APK to my phone, one from getjar and one from a mirror. They are both in my downloads folder on my SD card. Whenever i try to install either file, the phone says im out of space. I uninstalled and cleaned up alot of stuff. It seems i only have 31mb of free space but i dont think that would be a limitation. I dont know how big this damn game is but id think 30mb is enough. Why am i having this issue and how do i get about it? Im now less interested in playing the game and much more interested in not letting it defeat me haha.

One work around is to use apps2sd. That'll install it for sure. That's the only way I managed to install large games like this and Krazy Kart Racing.
Keep in mind Angry Birds is not fully compatible with mdpi devices. It'll install but you'll experience the dreaded white background/terrain as well as some lag on certain levels.
*Edit* Never mind. I see you're not rooted. Disregard.

Is there any way to fix the white background/terrain problem?

Got it. Used appbrain and fast web installer and that did the trick.

Someone mentioned something about opengl es 2? Could we use that to boost performance of this game?

Anyone played reckless racing

Reckless Racing for Android
Love this game
http://androidapproved.com/item/reckless-racing-for-android/

Looks good. I'ma check it out.

finally, an impressive looking racing game, I might pick this up

Yeah mulitplayer mode is the best...

By far one of the best examples of great graphics and physics, mostly physics. It is somewhat challenging to control but once you get the hang of it, it becomes easier.

Why can I not find this in the app store? Im dying for a good racing game.

It got pulled due to their servers being overloaded. It should be back up eventually.
This is the only game that I've seen that is truly impressive. The graphics are amazing for a mobile game (wouldn't look out of place as an xbox live arcade title). The default controls (auto accelerate with left, right and brake) are perfect. If this game came out on PC I'd play it.

I'd love to try it out, but it's not in the Market. When I found a QR code for it, I just got a "file not found" message. I even tried using Market Access. I'm willing to pay for it, but its lack of availability through mainstream channels may force me to look for it elsewhere.

If you do and you like it, please buy it when it comes back on the market. I want games like this to succeed so we get more quality games in future.

Awesome. Sucks it got pulled but I will definitely keep my eye out for it.

Is anyone else having problems getting online with this game?

Yup. I wasn't able to get into a server all weekend.
Single players still fun though. Great game.
Reminds me of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noDi1IzuotM
Found an update on the server issue: http://www.polarbit.com/2010/10/update-reckless-racing/

I hope the gameplay makes up for what Polarbit as a company lacks in class and professionalism. They posted a picture of Johnny Cash giving the middle finger on their website because people are running pirated copies. Maybe if they didn't take it off the market... I'm sure people would pay for it if they actually could. On top of that, they're basically blaming their overloaded servers on the number of pirated copies floating around, which is a bull**** cop out.

It's back on the market. Just got it.

And online playing is back.

Holy crap this is good... if your reading this thread, and your on the fence, buy it.

Actually, I did find one through other means, but liked the game enough that I bought it today, since I was finally able to do so. Who's to say if other people are as reputable as I. I would bet that server outage cost them a lot of sales.

I just flat out bought it because of the 24hr return policy but this game is worth it.

Bought it... haven't had much opportunity to play it yet but the minute or so I tried it looks really good.

just bought this game and it's pretty awesome with nice graphics.

3d games on G Tab

I've done all the market hacks and tried all the tricks but im wondering why most of the actual 3d games i want to get to show off the muscle that this great little tegra 2 tablet can flex.
it seems like the games i want on here right now "pocket legend" and "rocket bunnies" don't show up in the market and I was looking forward to "dungeon defenders"
I think there needs to be a big push of actually finding a way to get the full market that my Nexus One gets...
This is mostly why i bought the tablet, and thanks to all the great devs here we've been able to get "almost" everything working (Thanks roebeet, et all)
maybe we can make a nice thread with some different market fingerprints and post market results? (or any other suggestions)
I am currently running the latest Vegantab beta4 fyi.

Well, as the guy who has tried all the market fingerprints and build.prop stuff and wrote the thread on the "full" market fix, I can tell you with some confidence that Pocket Legends and some of the other 3d games are a known issue - I have tried changing every build.prop setting to match that of my Nexus One (which finds those apps with no problem), and there are still a handful of 3d games that will not show up. I have also found that if you change too many of the settings in build.prop, you will eventually bootloop your G Tablet because Android itself gets confused about what it's running on.
You can find my notes on the subject in my posts on my thread in this forum on Full Market Fix.
In summary - the issue seems to be more than just using a different Market Fingerprint. That does not solve the problem, though it may make a few addition or a few less items show up. Right now, by most of my metrics, we have at least 95% of the items in Market showing up.
BTW, I have seen posts stating that the work around for Pocket Legends has been to download directly from their site, though I have not done so myself.
My understanding is that the CyanogenMod ROM for G Tablet does not require the Maket Fix and has no issues with missing items in Market because of the way the ROM image is built. I think the person to ask about this is bekriebel who built CyanogenMod for G Tablet - he can explain the concept of release-keys better than I can and how Market supports it out of the box on the CM ROM.
Unfortunately, it's a bit outside of my time availability right now to work much more on this, having already spent a day or more figuring out what I figured out. But please keep me in the loop if you figure anything else out!

I just thought it would be good to have a good constructive conversation about why else it might not be working... so the build.prop isnt the thing then.
its sad that 3d games are not showing up when this device was built for 3d gaming!

Pocket legends shows up on mine. got it installed...lemme try the other one..
EDIT: Strange they arent showing up anymore. when i was on Cyanogen 6.1 i Had them showing up. then again I didnt have the new market that looks like xbox live. strange...

this is what I'm refering to its so spotty. there is this great drawing app that i purchased that id love to use on the tab called "sketchbook mobile" but its not showing up for me either.
I know there have been lots of people working on it but it would be great if we could somehow compare market search results on some of them to find the best?
also if cyanogenmod has more working downloads is there anyway that the market from cyanogenmod can be rolled into Vegantab?

Dungeon Defenders is amazing its based on the unreal engine and really shows off this hardware.
If we are patient I am sure there will be many amazing games in the future for this CPU/chipset.
I had originally intended to only use the gtab until a good windows7 tab was released but after seeing Dungeon defenders on this system I seriously doubt any windows based tab will be able to come close to this tab for some time and I am sure the cost of a system like that will be much higher.
U need to check out this game to understand what I mean.

Agreed, DD plays perfectly on the gtab. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come once Honeycomb is in place and developers start making apps with tablets in mind.

Peggle for Android is finally here

I don't always keep the best track of stuff, but when I woke up I found an email saying that today Peggle was free for download. I went to the page then tried to "buy it" via the amazon appstore app on my coom and got an incompatible error. But, I didn't give up, no, I just "bought it" from the site and when it showed up in the download area on my amazon appstore app I downloaded it and it installed and is working as well as plants vs zombies on my Xoom.

I can confirm that the method OP used, does in fact work. Was getting the same incompatible device message, and getting it through the website worked. Was able to "buy" Peggle and then it showed up in the downloads on my Xoom.

Not available in the Market?

Not as of now. For now it is sadly only Amazon appstore exclusive.

Thanks, work for me to (purchase from the web and install from the amazon app)!

Where do you purchase from the web? What's the website.

I must be spoiled because I'm already craving a THD version. Looks too blurry to me

I wouldn't mind a THD version, but to be the graphics are good enough expecially for a game I got for free, but to be honest I am hoping they just update like the maker of angry birds did instead of us having to "buy" the game again...
Actually, to be honest I find this to have better graphics then PvZ which is odd bc Amazon said that PvZ was good with Tabllets and that Peggle wasn't

PVZ graphics are way better. At least the version I have. The game is fun though. Thanks OP for the trick to make WIFI downloads work. The game is fun and takes me back to my Shenmue days when I would spend a lot of time playing a similar game.

I was able to install from the appstore app on xoom just by trying a few times. Works perfectly.

[Q] kairosoft games on M7

Does anyone else have problems playing their games on the ONE?
I installed pocket league story and durign the first game after the first half they all like freak out and always hang out in the corner of the field.
I deleted data again, reinstalled and it does it every game... I went to their website and I cant find somewhere to email them nor do they have an email address on the play store.
Just wondering if nayone else has ran into problems with their other games.

I am playing ninja village for like 2 weeks now so far no issues at all. Maybe you can try installing a lower version or whatever.

haha yes I bought it and it worked perfectly on my N1 and N7

Completely different issue, but their games tend to lag if i put it on graphics instead of performance. Anyone else get this?
