[Q] Angry Birds - G1 Apps and Games

Has anyone had Angry birds working on their G1 yet?
Ive managed to install it on my g1 when running a 1.6 rom but it just force closes whenever i try to run it.
Ive also tried it on Cm6 Rc3 but that wont even allow the game to install!
Any advice would be appreciated, i love the game and want to see if it works on the g1.
The website states it is compatible with android 1.6 and above.
thanks in advance

yeah same here, fc after the splash screen. im using CM6 with apps2ext.

I got this from another Forum - AndroidTalk I think. Keep pressing randomly on the screen while it shows the splash screen. Try it multiple times. Also you can try just running your finger all over the splash screen until the game loads. It work sometimes and sometimes it doesn't, I think it needs a touch at an exact point in time for it to work.
Also, try enabling JIT, as that seemed to have favoured the odds of it opening.

Ive tried that suggestion
on Cm6 it just says "application not installed" no matter how many times i try to install it or how much i mess with the touch screen.
On the 1.6 rom it installs but just gives me a force close every time i open the app!
This sucks!

Hold the phone in portrait mode until the game starts.
Tap every now and then on the screen to keep it live
I used SetCPU to 'performance' mode, to make the game run smooth
works almost perfectly. Lags here and there but other than that, quite well
Also restarting the phone before playing helps
Using Chromatic 3.9

That's what is working for me...just random taps and swypes. Its weird, sometimes it works and others it don't. But it needs more levels. Lvl 4 is probably the hardest for me.

I cant get it to install on CM6 Rc3, it just keeps saying "not installed", its doing my head in!
I wish i had those force close problems your having, at least then it would have installed at least!
HELP!

Upgrade to 6 stable and see if it installs

It works well on my htc magic 32b with (superfroyo 6.1)...

When I load it all I get is audio. Screen is black. Would love to play
it on my G1. Running Cyan's last 1.6 rom.

sparks mod g1 2.2.1 display issue
my phone loads and plays the game fine, other than lagging somtimes when the ad comes up. The only wierd thing is that it doesnt display all of the things on the screen. I have a lot of blank areas that are actually structures. When I look at the same level on my friends nexus 1 he has the structures visible. Any ideas? oh i have reinstalled the game thinking that would fix it but it didnt

Hey where did you get the game from I can't even get it from to market does not display it

go to getjar or androidandme.com, than click angry birds under most popular games and than download. It works fine on my fender mytouch on cyanogenmod latest nightly. i got jit on 10% compcache and 16 vm heap. also runs no lags when over clocked to 652 Mhz.

Hmm ive got the same setup and i have lag, like some lvls are fine then others are just horrible.

thats crazy, but every phone is different, also new version has background and effects but way more lag. but hey its free

YES it works but laggy, and random dumps me to home screen, but
Here is where the save file is; and if you want to make a back up here you go.
adb shell
su
cp data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/highscores.lua /sdcard
cp data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/settings.lua /sdcard

Just titanium backup, it works.

Check this out....
http://pastebin.com/TRCKfaC6 (attached file also)
Create this as 'angrybirds.sh'. Run from terminal as root, adb shell, or using gscript. It flips the permission on part of the 3d system. (thanks ezTerry!) It makes AB run much smoother, and returns permission to original state when AB exits.
The initial startup screen will be messed up. Lock the screen, then unlock to get past that point.

Wow thanks. Night and dsy, and totally lag free

Here is how to get it as an icon with script wrapper...
1) Install Gscript.apk
2) Create folder /sdcard/gscript
3) Save angrybirds.sh.txt as /sdcard/gscript/angrybirds.sh (remove .txt)
4) Delete any existing angry bird shortcut from desktops
5) Run Gscript, hit MENU, Add Script, Load File button, pick "angrybirds.sh" (if it doesnt show up in list, you didnt put it in correct folder, repeat step 2&3)
6) Make sure "Needs SU" is checked, then click Save
7) Hit HOME button, long press desktop, pick Shortcut, Gscript, "angrybirds"
BOOM, you now have an icon that will run angry birds from the script.
Remember!!! When you start the game, you will get a black/messed up screen... You have to hit END to lock phone, then unlock phone for game to come up. (sometime you may have to lock/unlock a couple times)

What is the most efficient android browser out there?

First off im running haykuro 5.0.2Hr5-A2SD
Im really getting annoyed with the constant lag of the browser. When i search, my keystrokes show up 2 seconds after ive typed them, the browser seems to load slower than rc33 jf root version, i have the cache and app thumbnails linked to my sd card, text messages cleared, gmail cleared, sd card nowhere near full, class4 4gb card. Is there a browser.apk that i can adb push in place of this one? Also what do i have to do to get EVERY website to display in pc mode? because even with the bestbrowser.apk i still would go to some sites like walmart and im being directed to walmart iphone beta. Anyone else experiencing browser lagging?
One thing that really annoys me is when I open in a new window, then close that window and go back to previous it always refreshes. I hate that.
Do you have the latest radio update installed?
Yeah i do have the latest radio, i always update to the latest radio. same prob

It refreshes if you switch to another app and switch back too, I figure it must be some kind of timer based on when the browser window was last viewed.
And I don't hate it, I loath it, it annoys me no end.

Run the AdFree app I wrote, it won't fix keystroke lag but it will get rid of a lot/most ads which will speed up other aspects of your browsing.
disabling java script would make it a little faster.
also overclocking would make it faster.
if you want to display PC version of the website goto URL "about:debug" don't search hit the "go" button. then hit menu settings in the bottom you'll see UAString, select Desktop. You may have to do this every time you start the browser because it doesn't stay. what you can do is set "about:debug" as your home page, so it'll enable debug menu when go to go home page.

Games just display a white screen

So I have a problem and both google and the forum search have failed me.
Several games (Paper Airplane, Gem Miner, Blow Up) will just show a white screen past their main menu. Text still shows up normally, but the game never seems to actually run and nothing responds on the touch screen. Other 3d games seem to work just fine. I'm also having a problem with some graphics in other apps being off-center and chopped off (the map pointers in the Weather Channel map and sprites in some 2d games like the trees and tanks in Armored Strike).
Currently using FRF85B, all versions of 2.2 have had this problem from FRF50 up. I can't remember if the stock 2.1 had it when I got it, I didn't use 2.1 for long before the FRF50 update showed up.
I've of course tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps (with and without a reboot in between) and shuffling them either to or from the sd card.
Anyone else anywhere have this problem?

Who has slingplayer working?

Curious how you achieved this. Mine just closes automatically
I just tried slingplayer as well and does same thing. Some programs just won't run on it at this time I think.
I have it working...sometimes. It's strange, about half the time it'll run ok and the other half it just closes like you guys have seen. It seems to have something to do with either free memory or another program using the sound system. I'm still trying to narrow it down, but it DOES work.
Did you modify accounts.db by chance?
No. The only system level changes I've made are nooter, multitouch and direct app installs (all done to the letter by the instructions on NookDevs). I've got Dolphin HD, Angry Birds, Slideme, SlingPlayer and AndTask installed.
It works for me but sometimes I have to restart it about 10 times to make it work.
Try opening it in landscape vs portrait.

That doesn't seem to have an impact as far as I can tell... When it does start it's always in landscape regardless of what the screen was before. It starting at all is still hit or miss even when already in landscape.
Well I figured out a system to get slingbox working (for me atleast). Run advanced task killer, try to open slingbox 3 times, if it doesn't work just repeat as necessary. Now mine boots every time now.. weird...
what version are you all running?
I have it working, but the picture quality is not very good. I have the HD box, and all I get is SD crappy quality.
mines work fine
Working fine for me as well.
Most of the posts not working are old. Maybe its a 1.0 vs 1.0.1 issue?

[Q] Multitouch and Flash?

I was just browsing some files using Root Explorer to see what we might be able to do to get Multitouch working on the ZIO. In /system/etc/permissions directory I found a file called handheld_core_hardware.xml that when I open it up has information about permissions of the device hardware and then says this.
<!-- devices with multitouch must also include
android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml -->
<!-- devices with full multitouch must also include
android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct.xml -->
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've also found the applications currently installed on the phone in the /system/app directory that has every app on the phone, Maybe we can inject some files from another phone that have Multitouch and Flash working?
I know I'm not the only one that is currently scanning this phone for things that we can "exploit" to make it better. If anyone else can think of what we can do to get Multitouch and Flash to work go ahead and give us your input and we'll get this going.
don think flash will work nativaly becase it requires a arm7 proc and I think the Zio is an ARm6 based proc..... you can get flash running through skyfire browser from what I understand though...
as far as multitouch??? dunno you may be onto something!
I am determined to make this phone work better than CricKet is willing to make it work. I know it's not a high end device but cmon my old pentium 3 gateway that had a 600mhz processor could run flash. There has to be a way that we can spoof the processor to install flash if it only allows the arm7 or higher.
I dont know if you have Root Explorer but I would reccomend it for browsing the files on the phone. I would say it is worth the 4.03 USD or 2.50 EUR. That and Uninstaller for Root to remove the bloatware.
Multitouch could be a hardware issue as well. I know the zio has a substandard capacitive touchscreen -- maybe it doesnt support multitouch.
BUT, I could be completely wrong as I am making a hypothetical assumption.
I downloaded flash here: http://www.4shared.com/file/k6SycB0R/Adobe_Flash_Player_101_1016168.htm
I then dropped it into my SD card and installed it just fine on the new cricket 2.2.1 update. It seems to be working just fine, though it does sometimes kick me out of browser pages, so I just switch to Opera Mobile 10.1 and it works on that one much better.
Sweet, trying to get this working now.

Got it to install just fine on mine too, but it causes my stock browser to FC all the time, even when just trying to type in a web address. I will have to try this with another browser.
Kyocera originally stated when the phone launched that it supported multi touch. This phone is going to have to suppport multi touch in some way or another. Maybe we could contact Kyocera to find out exactly what hardware is in this phone?

hmm thats odd. I'll have to try this once I get my phone working again. I was messing with some cpu files then restarted my phone. well now I'm in a loop after the Kyocera logo. The cricket logo comes up and restarts from the cricket logo again. I'm currently working on getting it working again with adb and fastboot. I may end up using fastboot to flash the boot image and then run the update, it will then take me into the recovery just like it did the other day.

Check the market under productivity you should find the free equivalent.
I was able to install flash but... FC on all browsers except opera mini. I had to uninstall just to use the free xda apparently because it kept restarting. Flash isn't too huge of a deal for me, I think it might be why flash isn't included in the update

Anyone have any problems with Appbrain.
I noticed with appbrain it doesn't reconize that I have the 2.2 installed on my phone. Anyone else having the same problem? I also posted a few questions on here about a few things I noticed my phone doing but never got a response back. Guess they weren't important questions or something.
Also was wondering about SELECT DEVICE ADMINISTRATORS in the settings/location & security. What is it and why is it empty if i'm the admin of my own phone???
Something else I feel really sucks that they did with this phone.
Why the hell did Kyocera have this phone where when you set a wallpaper you always have to crop the dam thing and cut half your pic off just to set it??
I think its bull**** concidering the resolution of the phone there would be no need to limit the size of the wallpaper you set. I feel it sucks ass totally cause no matter what size I make my wallpapers I always have to cut half the pic off to set it as a wallpaper on the phone.
That little resize box sucks!! Now it may be an app I have installed on the phone but i'm having the same BS problem when typing txt messages with the keyboard missing letters and the latter just the same as if i still had the 1.6 crap on it.
I'm starting to hate this stinking phone to a point i'm about to take my hammer to it.

I had the same problem. Anything I opened once I installed the flash just FC on me till i uninstalled it. I just installed Opera brower and i'm re-installing the Flash now, i'll reply back with what I get after its all done.
Well I installed Opera browser, Re-installed Flash player and Rebooted my phone. Once running I when to adobe.com to test the flash and in the content window it states: To view this experience, you need JavaScript enabled and the latest adobe flash player installed
I have opera and it works with flash installed. I haven't really seen flash working since installation. Tried using opera to go to YouTube but it opened the app rather than embedding in the browser.

I give up. about to for the 5th time now completely reset my phone, format my SD card, and redue the entire phone from scratch.
With flashed installed I can't even goto appbrain app market without the never ending FC happening just as Appbrain begins to load. This sucks! I really don't want to spend half the day again reinstalling all my crap back to this phone. Its been a headache sence day 1 I had it till now. Seemed to run just fine leaving the thing alone aside trying to figure out what bloatware crap other then the 2 lousy games that comes with the phone.
By the way. The bloatware is mobile web, mybackup, uno, my account, storefront, midnight bowling, ziotop10apps, and you can remove home screen tips

I really don't remember Kyocera saying it was multitouch. I do remember some reviews of the phone saying that it was, but those are not associated with Kyocera, those are just some guys online giving their two cents on their blogs and websites.
On the actual Kyocera Zio website,for the Spring version with Froyo on it it states:
Display Specs: 3.5" 262K-color TFT LCD WVGA (480x800 pixels), capacitive touch screen navigation
Input: SWYPE - Fast and easy text input
Navigation: Track Ball navigation

It does not mention multitouch

[Q] SPB Shell 3d v1.0.1

I have tried to run SPB Shell 3D v1.0.1 on my Nexus One quite a few times, but it closes automatically every time after starting. It is just me or has anyone else faced the same problem? Solutions?

I have the same issue. Since I'm also using MIUI 1.3.25 it will most likely be a MIUI compatibility issue.
@nonpafos it just closes after a black screen(1 or 2 seconds) and returns to the last opened application. Haven't tried viewing logs though because I wanted to get a refund in time
I'm using it with MovieStars latest MIUI ROM and it works perfectly fine...
Mostly working for me, it froze at one point and my N1 rebooted and then got stuck in a bootloop, had to delete the /data/data/*spb* files. Seems ok now other than the icons in the "favourites" widget all show up as black squares at fullsize, but they're there when minimised.
Pretty cool, it's a bit impractical to use on a screen as small as the N1, it's much nicer using it on my Galaxy Tab.
I'm using the latest gigglebread fw & Pershoot kernel.

I'm having the same issue on my N1 running the Kang-O-Rama ROM (based on CM7). I've contacted SPB's support on the issue and they are working through it... not making a lot of progress on it yet, but I'll give them a little bit of time.
Are you running an a2sd implementation? I have noticed that if i move/rebuild my dalvik-cache to /sd-ext, the Shell will load and run (though very poorly). With the dalvik-cache on internal storage (/data), the application fails to launch. I don't have enough free space left on my /sd-ext partition to move the dalvik-cache there for good though
Had a N1 with CM7 RC4 & WN kernal, same issue.
Same issue on CM7 fresh install and MIUIFormel.
same issue here
i flashed the latest miui rom last night (1.4) and have the same issue as everyone here, screen goes black for a second then back to the other apps :-(
shame. Luckily I got my refund back in time. when I see this has been fixed I might give it another try.
cheers
D
I have the latest MIUI rom and it works perfectly fine for me...
Is there any way I can add a city to the weather widget? Maybe editing a file...
Nearest city is about 90 km from where I live...
The latest version in the Market (1.0.3) solved my black screen issue, and the Shell runs quite well on my device. I'm very impressed with SPB's support as well.
Maybe not worth the fifteen bucks, but I'm pleased anyway.
