Hey everyone, my group just finished working on our first android application. We are making it as part of a project for our CST200 class. We decided to make a simple fun to play all around trivia game developed for Android 2.1.
Features:-Eight categories to choose from with 45 questions per category, that’s a total of 360 questions!
-Trivia games are round based, with five questions per round and a total of three rounds each round getting progressively harder.
-Ability to save a game mid way through
Installation Instructions:1. Copy TheTrivia.apk to your phones SD card.
2. Next you will need a file manager from the market place, you can use any you want however we tested using “ASTRO File Manager” and found it working.
3. Locate the application in the file manager, open it up and hit install.
4. The application should now be installed to your phone and you should be able to run it just like any other application.
There might be a few bugs, but it should run alright.
I just want to say, its very interesting and it kept my attention, the only part that I was noticing, is the sound when you get an answer wrong, it is a bit excessive. I tried the video game category and got most of them wrong, but then again I havn't played that many games. All in all, it deserves an A.

Where's the Users' Guide?
Like do you mean as the instructions on the main page of the app?

I think that might be a problem with our randomizer, I'll try to look into it.
Almost have the highscores working correctly, really busy with finals but when I have time I'll post an updated version. Also I know some of the answers are actually hardcoded wrong so I'll try to fix some of those too.
Awesome idea, I'll give it a shot and report any bugs.
really cool idea... we need MORE MORE MORE questions tho!
love the concept. i will try this on a couple of phones and leave feedback. thank u for sharing!
You could get a lot of other questions just by getting some IRC trivia bots. The have the questions in txt format. ( or at least to let you browse and select one such file where the questions are nicely formated within a text file. )
Support for QVGA would also be nice.
Not bad.
Just tried your game & it's good but for me i just wish the text for the questions was a little bigger. At least make it the same size as the text in the answers.Thx.
This is a great idea. Would be truly amazing if you could play against friends kind of like wordfeud.
This works great. Installed on 2 wvga phones. Will play more. Only thing I found so far is a wrong answer. A question in sports. An NFL team called the aints should be the Saints not Chiefs. Another thing, I think print should be bigger. Thank you for this app. Would love to see online compitition like trivia at Buffalo wild wings

My high scores don't save. When typing my high scores, I have to delete the words in the text box. In the sports question about NFL players decade they got names on their shirts, 2of the answers are both 1970

Any more development planned? This could be really great. I can't believe nothing like this is available yet.

Hey Guys
I got some of these cheap, so im going to be giving one to a random member of the community. But then that would be just TOO easy giving it away. So, i'm asking you to post your favourite modification or application for Froyo 2.2 JPH firmware.
Post An:
- Application
- Game
- Theme (For TouchWiz)
- Modification
or anything else you can think of that I would like. This is open to UK members only because I ain't shipping to outside countries that would cost me alot of money to post. Other members can still participate as I will be giving one person £2.00.GBP on PayPal to another member that is not in the UK. Picture of the case below!

What a VERY nice gesture, well done!!
It makes such a NICE change to read something like this post instead of the normal stuff that goes on.
If Im honest I could never post a favourite ANYTHING!! theres just so much and its all good.
Keep up the good work and once again, well done for doing this.

Think of it this way, if you had your JPH firmware, and you could only install ONE third party app, mod or things like that, what would you install? And i'm giving one or two of these away because I have learned alot here, made my phone awesome (Just like I did my Nokia 5800), and now giving something back!
Go on then, Ill have a go
So I go and look at my phone, on there are the things I cannot live without like:
Android Manager
Audio Manager
Beautiful Widgets
Dropbox
Handcent SMS
London Tube Live
National Rail
Home Switcher
Screen On
Shazzam
SMS Backup and Restore
Simply Lockscreen
Tweetcaster
WiFi Analyzer
There all the apps I ALWAYS install on any rom I have installed...
Think Beutiful Widgets is the top??
Maybe SMS Backup and Restore 2nd, I like to have my SMS backed up when messing with roms.
There ya go.. if I chnage my mind Ill edit it LOL
TrOjAn
not the most productive suggestion but the only app/game i seem to use on a daily basis is:
Lets Golf from gameloft.
it really is good fun and very addictive - and i also purchased this phone on its gaming potential over anything else.
i also play superheroes alliance daily but thats more of a thing to do when i have 5 mins free (add me jtjih)
also very nice gesture
Home Screen App - Launcher X Pro
Game - Angry Birds
3/4 repilies, leaving it until tomorrow night to decide!
Adam if it helps decide I love you lol.... could swap you a child even choice of 2, both make tea <jk>

(when it's released) New version of MyPhoneExplorer with Android support.

That would be fantastic if you could, I need to get as much exposure on this as possible I should probably mention that it runs on Froyo & Gingerbread, requires an ARM7 processor and also works nicely on my Vega Tegra2 Tablet...
I am about to start on my second game now and am anxious that this one helps pave the way for gaining a reputation for quality pick up and play games...
Game instantly force closes when launched on my Droid X.
Very funny game, thumbs up. How log did it take you, to code it?
graphics could be more refined. Loading times are long and I kept thinking that it hung but it eventually started. Good start though. Played on HTC Desire Z.
21mb? We need a move to SD option please.

All sorted : check the game again - it should want to update to allow app2sd
Following the link i get "The requested application can not be found". I thought it was blocked in my country (Romania) so I installed Market Enabler and faked TMobile USA.
Any other sugetstions? Can you someone post .apk?
My phone is LG P500, CM7.
Strange tudorsirb,
I have it set for all regions in the market, please try again. Otherwise I will sort out a copy for you...

Feel free to post reviews guys and girls. Good or Bad. I can handle it... Although that does mean you have to download it too
Runs Great on my Epic 4g!! Pretty interesting, will have to play more and see what i think of it.
So Far:
1. Nice Graphics
2. Good accelerator Controls
One thing i noticed is it froze for a second when i first turned using the accelerator i waited a few seconds and unfroz and played fine.
just a note.
Look forward to playing it some more.
Any suggestions for getting this to work on my Droid X?
Ok played a couple more levels preey good
Things that need improvement:
Freezing every so often right as you start a new level, then no freezing til another level starts
Accelerator controls need to be a little more responsive.
Other then that it is pretty fun!!!
Im getting irritated i keep running into fences and losing 75 pts
lol
Im installing it right now on my sister's Droid Incredible. I'll let ya know what I think. But may I ask one question? How did you start learning about programming? I just started studying Java this week. And im watching the Programming methodology lectures on Stanford's Youtube channel and reading "Head first Java". I would just like to know how you approached learning to make software and if you"re more of a self taught programmer or if you took classes.Thanks.
Larry,
Firstly, I am completely self taught... it took a lot of late nights and banging my head against the wall to complete Honeyrun HD!
And davidrules,
The stopping at the start... to be honest I'm not sure, I noticed it on my Desire HD but it doesn't happen on the tegra2 tablet or the iPad version... I will look into it again soon...
also, can I ask you all to tweet or Facebook the free link...
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mspacemedia.honeyrunFree
I'd ask you to do the ios version but I would get flamed

Nice job. Buzzin'!

Interesting little app that I found by accident on the market while looking for apps late one night. As i downloaded the app I did notice it had some crazy permissions "system_alert_window,read_phone_state,access_coarse_location" which I denied with lucky patcher. Just a heads up to anyone who download's the app to do hahaha. Now to the app in a nutshell its a easy way to find and download classic games really nice looking UI too, so far I've seen Super Mario Bros., Final Fight, Mega Man and my favorite metal slug 2 just to name a few. They claim its over 1000+ games but I don't think so, but theres variety. This app is more so for people who just want to play now without all the hassle because it pretty much does it all for you, just find a game, then download it and play nothing else is needed. Also for my Xperia Play Fam!!!! :good: When you start up a game just map the buttons really easy, then tap the semi clear keyboard on your in-game screen to hide the onscreen keyboards then your set. Enjoy!
Below are screenshots.
Cowboy Bebop Fan!!!:laugh:

this was posted like a month ago.
and the thread was... uh.. Deleted. i don't know why but i became suspiscious i uninstalled the app
I downloaded this app some week ago and it's just amazing!! I can play Street Fighter 2, R-Type, Metal Slug, Riden, and so much other old games!! The server ia unbelievable fast for download and the list of games availables is constantly updating, this app is simply all that what you need if you love gaming and don't like to wait a download of massive sd card data.
Just install the Happy Bay, search for your favorite gamr, download it and that's it! All in less than 5minutes!!! The pad is so easy to configure, the app is simply awesome!!:good:
I wonder how long it will take for google to gank this off the play store, since its essentially a ROM distribution platform with built in emulators.

Who knows cause its all free but if it does the developer of the app has a site for the .apk
Ive been running some test on the overall of the app, for security reason will do a follow up soon
Great! Was looking for something like this. thanks for sharing.
Tried it out, I like it but do not love it, simply because there is is some lag and sound stuttering. I know I should`nt have really high expectations, but personally I would prefer a proper emulator on my phone and know I`m getting the best my phone can provide me.
If I`m making no sense blame my beer lol
Seems ok. If someone knows how to get rid of the on-screen controls let me know.
I've tried a few emulators and this seems like a good way of getting games in one easy-to-choose/play place. I just hope it's safe.
Legal? Who cares? Get it while you can.

to remove the onscreen keyboard, is easy just keep tapping the little keyboard on your ingame screen its on the upper right side .
Hello!!, my name is David Jones and I've been a little over a year and a half doing Android mobile applications of all kinds ... but I am slowly improving my code, my designs and directing all this applications to games is what more people demand ...
This is not the first application that I share with you (and hopefully not the last), and I always love it because I get lots of positive and constructive criticism, I do get better each day ..
This is why I write, I submitted my last application, of which I am very proud and getting rave reviews ... and I'd like to know your opinion too ... And if you like games and more specifically, games logic Numbers'm sure you hooked!
Without further ado, I leave all the details of my application and I hope your criticisms, suggestions or a vote in the Google Play. For anything or concerns do not hesitate to send me a private. Thank you very much!

I got all excited at seeing this.. downloaded... discovered the adverts in notification bar crap...
... and uninstalled.
Well if he's got not problem with obviously ripping off a TV show, who knows what could be in that app.

There are no problem with this...if the app doesn't have similar concept of a TV show, it musn't be a problem...it is like if the TV launch a TV program called "Save Batery" and later nobady can launch an app or something else about save batery.. ( it's a stupid example).

Maybe the alert that appear at the beginning of the app confuse to you..but this app desn't have push notification adverts, In fact was my first decision when I develop this app..please check it because it's very important for me. Thanks
I'm receiving a lot of suggestions...In fact, I made some changes for the app, like the numbers of the game changes depending if is a 0, 1 or 2..to be easily the visualization in the game...any suggestion more?

Tnx for testing out and giving feedback!!
ps: also available in play store...
This looks like a good idea and good fun! One Tip so far, the font is difficult to read on such a busy background.

Awesome. I am loving it especially since I am the only one in my area meaning I get in early with the buying. What I also like is that it doesn't require the checking in person to have this app and yet I still earn. Thanks for the fun of this hope it grows bigger quickly.
How Do i attack people's venues? Coz i have seen you attack me, but i cant find how to Do it, Do I need to be close to the location or something like that?
Ps, if i can help with testing something, sent me pm, I am from Belgium to

Hey, i saw you're from belgium
At this moment, i just want to get it bug-free, so if you encountered crashes, please report them (through google play or here). Personally, i don't have a lot of them but there's always a chance
Also, at this moment it is actually important that more users join the game so i can see how the servers react to a higher 'game load' but apparantly it is not easy to get a lot of users. Possibly, the game will die in a while
Anyway, i keep developing new features and all. Maybe you have some tips to make the game more appealing and more fun?
I try to find some new goals and badges to reach to make the game more 'game'
There is currently also some bug sometimes, due to the foursquare servers (faulty load balance / technical errors on fsq-servers). More info can be found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ll-for-checkinscount-returns-different-values
I can't always get the correct checkins every hour. I thought i catched it in my code but apparantly this night i got $300000 dollar rent for a venue (Panos)
So this are things i still need to check out
First thing to do is also pimping the navigation style (i was thinking on a left sliding bar navigation drawer)...
But a big tnx for your interest!
By the way, play store rating and/or comment can also help
Urgently seeking someone with a 2.2 or 2.3 android version to test this app. Some are reporting force-closes but i fixed some things (sherlockactivity) and want to know if all works now for lower android versions...
Emulator seems ok though
Cant test android 2.3
But on leaked 4.3 for nexus 4 game is runing fine
