Angry Birds

Angry Birds is finally out (and free!) However the devs were obviously paid to release it on getjar and of course their site is now locking up due to traffic issues. Anyone mind posting the .apk? I can't wait any longer!!!!

Are you speaking about the FULL game? Because the demo is/has been in the Market for a while...

yeah. full game released today. it's only available on getjar.com, and not the android market yet. and of course with already almost 100,000 downloads in less than a few hours, the site is locked up.

This thread has links and mirrors to the full version:

Tested and working. Scroll down to the mirrors...getjar is down.

Yay full version is free!

Thanks to everyone who posted a link. Working for me. Getjar still seems to be down, 4 hours later.
What a fail, releasing on a third party app store. Oh well, guess we should get used to it. With all these different stores coming out, we're gonna need 5 different apps just to find what we want. Certain titles will only be released to a paying app store im sure.

I'm at work wondering how I am going to get anything done with Angry Birds on my phone now just calling to be played. Oh Lord, thank God it's Friday and there are no big projects due or anything. *slack*

Kongregate Arcade

http://www.appbrain.com/app/kongregate-arcade/com.kongregate.android.arcade
Just saw an article about it on Engadget. It's a bunch of free flash games. They actually run smooth. Let it load up for the first couple of seconds or so, then play. Just played the first round of vector shooter and it was smooth as butter. Touchscreen friendly too.

Arcade by Kongregate
I downloaded it also and the games all run extremely well, however instead of this thread being full of posts of praise why dont we all just say which applications in the 'Kongregate Arcade' we think are great - which would make this thread a lot more useful!
1. Vector Runner - great game!
EDIT: It seems i was misunderstood, i meant which games in the Kongregate Arcade itself are good (As there are over 300 in their databases ATM)

we have, it's in the other sub section

No matter what I do I can't find the app in the market. Anyone got the apk?

Scrabble

Somebody please get this up and going for the xoom

I was about to side load it....see how that goes.
XOOM

Why bother? It's a POS compared to WordFeud.

I was just going to install this when I noticed the app doesn't install on Xoom. I must say this makes me really disappointed and brings a huge spotlight to splintered status of Android.
That said, I find it hard to blame Google solely. I much rather blame EA. Its not like they couldn't have made the app work on both platforms.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App

I side-loaded it. It works but not great. It is 1/4 screen and has graphical issues in the unused space. The music sucks too. I haven't gotten to play a game yet but the game does seem to run and the HC3.2 full screen trick will probably handle the screen size issues.

Can you post a link to the APK, I would like to give it a go even though it apparently only partially works. Or send to [email protected] Thanks!
Dan

I loaded it on my TB, haven't tried moving it to my Xoom yet...
It is disappointing that this new Free version doesn't support "local" play only... or play against the "computer."

Anyone get the apk out?

That would be warez, unless of course you are asking for the trial version. The trial version does suck a$$ though. See below.

+1 It is pointless for me, i just wanted to grab a quick me vs computer game to try it before i buy it.

There was a free version of scrabble. So that would not be warez. Anyone know where to find the apk in the file system? I can pull it from my TB or tab.

renting movies
Not sure if they have created a hack to get around this problem. but rooted users need to beware of renting movies, it will say you cant watch the movie after you've already paid for it

ever since installing this, I'm getting a lot of force closes on a lot of different apps. tweetdeck, roam control, titanium backup, and a few more. I'm flashing a backup to see if that fixes it. will report back when I do
Edit 1: I went to applications > Manage Applications and deleted updates from market to see if that would do the trick first. after doing so, now the market force closes like crazy. flashing backup now, will most likely report when I wake up tomorrow

Loving it so far want to download a movie but a lil scared maybe tomorrow so far so good

Nexus 7 For The Elderly

An elderly relative of mine shall be getting herself a Nexus 7 tomorrow, which she plans to use mainly for e-Reading plus a bit of media usage in the form of BBC iPlayer. I was looking for an easy-to-use interface for her. Any launcher recommendations or simple customisations to make it just a little bit easier? I am sure she could use it as is, but making it easier so I don't have to teach her so much will be good.

How elderly? Talk back might be nifty. I tried it once, it was annoying as hell though

Instructions are poor. You get a quick startup guide on paper and then have to open the book section to read the user manual. I find it harder to learn about a system when I an constantly flipping from the manual to a page to try out what I was reading.

I was more just on about launchers which would allow her to have a nice, clean UI that isn't too cluttered.

Anyone know of such a launcher?

No problem. The only launcher that might suit your needs would be a heavily customized apex launcher.

Thanks. I can install Apex on my Galaxy Note, so I'll fiddle around and see what I can do on it.

Just empty the desktop from every single icon . Than..
1.on home screen Add icons that this person will use the most e.g BBC iPlayer (not sure bits going to work without flash), chrome, play store and a nice looking clock widget or something
2. Set each other screen with categories e.g one for books where you place the appropriate widgets and icons . One for videos and one for whatever else like notes calendar and other productivity ....
3. Do that person a favour and download some games .. yes games . You'd be surprised how often older people like to play ... ideal games would be mahjong, card games , also things like Bejeweled ,Zuma, scrabble type games
Stock android launcher is good enough trust me you just have to know how to organise it. Also wait for chameleon that might change things
