Dont want to start a Thread on you know what..
and dont even want to mention it..
As it will come when it comes..
but here is something pretty cool, that I am sure is going to kick it along a bit..
http://pandaboard.org/
Not sure if it has anything to do with Blade as I was reading in his thread he was spending some time in a Pandaboard..so I did a google search and came up with this.
Anyway check out the 2nd youtube video.. now thats cool..
I can see some home entertainment systems getting built with this thing..
I am wondering how long it will be before we move away from windows all together, as with the support from the hardware manufactures it is really as they say becoming "A train full of steam"

huh............??

That's a very cool little bit of kit. I'd certainly build my HTPC around Android - it's much better suited to an air mouse than virtually any Windows app.
Oh, don't mention the war.

I think something like a dual mother board in one case would be cool..
The could have best of both worlds for a media center..

Is there a surf report app?

There's a really great magicseaweed surf app for the iPhone. I was wondering if there was anything similar for the HD2 rather than just having to log onto the internet or bookmark a particular site.
Thanks
Rik
yeah a surf report app would be cool. but the one on the i-phone is on the i-phone and hence it sucks. plus how dare you speak of such rubbish phones on this forum. YAK..
yeah so anyone know of one
haha, yeah sorry I mentioned that other phone thingy.
You don't even surf spzero. lol.
This is like a total neccessity for me! Maybe we could design a snowboarding app...that would benefit both of us mate.
yeah but theres always nice snow at xscape & chill factor dude it would seam a bit pointless, lol tho we can go out for free now i might come over next week with my landrover and go drive us up some mountain for some sweet fresh powder.

But that's what the iPhone app is... pretty much anyways.
I thought it was a marvellous marketing swizz by Apple to rebrand internet shortcuts as "Apps"... sheez!
But that's by the by, the old Magicseaweed "app" (ahem) works fine for fashionably challenged phones too.
http://iphone.magicseaweed.com/#_home
If you want to avoid stepping thru' the location menu (Europe/UK&Ireland/England/etc) each time you browse, here's a tip.
To get a direct link to your surfspot,
Visit, http://iphone.magicseaweed.com/#_home
Drill down thru' the links to your spot
Look at the URL and make a note of your spot number (at the end of the URL)
In the URL replace the #_spot bit with forecast.php?id= instead
Save a bookmark for it
For example,
For the Bude report, the menu will take you to http://iphone.magicseaweed.com/#_spot6, change that to http://iphone.magicseaweed.com/forecast.php?id=6 and bookmark it.
HTH
Personally tho' I still prefer looking at the full webpage
(that's why I've got a 800x480 screen for, ain't it??)
Hey, thanks man. I must have been having a totally brain dead day that day when I actually did look at the link on the magic seaweed site. It is just a URL, not an app. I'm a total idiot.
So yeah I have saved my spot as a favourite that I can access straight from the HTC sense menu...one click and I am there. Perfect, now I can check on the fly. I seem to recall looking up the magicseaweed site on my phone and it not particularly behaving for me, that's why I made a thread asking for an app. This works fine.
Thanks mate. Now all I need is for my broken elbow to get better, then I can hit the waves. lol

SIM Cardless Optimization

I'm an early adopter of the N1. My G1 will now only have wifi connectivity and I am wondering if there are any roms that are optimized for non-phone use. I think the desire for that kind of optimization will only grow as people start replacing their first loves. I might be completely off-base, I have been up for a couple days. I'm not even sure what I want when I say optimization. But I didn't know what I wanted from custom roms when I got my first G1 and now I can't wait until Cyanogen drops his first full rom for the N1.
I see where you are comming from.. as I LOVE my G1 and at the same time lusting for the N1. I would like to have another use for the G1, something like a media center remote.. or anything.
I think this is a good idea and look forward to some of the dev responses.
You dont need a special rom for it without service. If you dont have service then phone and the like just wont work. Uninstall what you dont want. But there arent going to be any devs making roms just for g1 without service, it is a complete waste of time. There wouldnt be anything different, minus no phone.
i dont really see the point of that tbh - you can change the call button to open something else for example
furthermore - wrong section

If the device no longer needs to maintain the functionality of a phone, the door is even wider open. It could, for example, be a rom with debian cooked in, or it could be something like no6969el described.

Really? This is not the place to discuss a certain type of rom?
I think the both of you are too closed minded.
you are asking a question, not contributing to the good of the android community
they answer is simple - yes...but pointless
i am far from close minded - i am always up for expanding the capabilities of my phone....not detracting from them like this idea
you can use the phone as a media centre remote with the aid of a simple app on the market
you can disable mobile data and use only wifi
you can reprogram the call button to do whatever you want
you can install debian/ubuntu rather easily and use it with vncviewer
all these things can already be done using stock android - nevermind having to modify it
Nothing I have said or asked has detracted from android. Asking questions has its place in development, it causes thinking. Re-purposing old gen hardware happens, sometimes with fantastic results. First generation android devices, like the G1, have many possibilities other than telephony.
I am wondering if there are any roms that are optimized for non-phone use.

COD Nazi Zombies

Played this on a friends Iphone today looked amaing. Wonder why they haven't brought it out for the high end WM devices. Im sure it would be capable of playing it. Can anybody port it over? Guessing this is probably to much to ask. Might email activision and ask them.
I don't think I've ever enjoyed a FPS on a touch screen phone, the controls are just ergh

There we go again ... ,,saw that on iphone,, ehhh why not buy one then ? Anyway, to give you an alternative and without being so bitter, try out FPSECE (i recommend the full version which you will automatically get if you donate 5 euros, not that much for a great app) you can find it here :http://fpsece.net/ (along with all the instructions in the forum)
You can play games like Quake 2 (if you like shooters) or almost any other PS1 games - developers there do a fantastic job. All you need are some .iso images.

I already have FPSece which I think is great but just because I want COD on my phone doesn't mean I want an Iphone its a game I'm after not an apple piece of crap. Thanks for the advice tho. To be honest tho the graphics on the COD Nazi Zombies game were simply amazing and as the spec of Xtrakt. If Xtrakt can just on the HD2 theres no reason a version of the COD game couldn't be created for it. Would also like to add I already have the supporters version running with multitouch and G Sensor capability.
It being possible on the hardware doesn't mean it will be developed for the hardware.
It's just life....just suck on it and move on.

Was only asking a simple question. Don't think some of you retards understand theres wanting something for your phone thats on another but not wanting the other phone. I see this all the time peoples negative responses saying why don't you just get an iphone but I love my HD2. Theres just some things that should be possible I would like to add to it without getting an Iphone as i'm really not interested in them.
I agree, I played this on an iPhone and was amazed by it, the PS1 emulator is brilliant, but it doesnt compare to playing Nazi Zombies! and its very intuitive and works very well!

That's because most devs only see $$$ signs with the iPhone platform and the general media thinks that the current Windows Mobile 6.5(.x) is basically a "dead in the water" platform, hence the lack of interesting games taking advantage of newer hardware.
If you want good stuff on your WM phone, bug the devs. Otherwise you're stuck with jumping on the iPhone bandwagon, sadly.

Won't be jumping on the iphone bandwaggon to much of a messer and your stuck with it the way it is unless you jailbreak. Much prefer my HD2 just want the Nazi Zombie game
Hey Jammie_1989 chill up. There's some people who are too stereotype or more like 'handphone+racist' = "phonecist?".
LOL nvm about that, only way to get your game is either to ask or beg the developer to make on WinMo or wait for a genius to port it.
I agree, I've seen some brilliant IPhone apps. However I've not ever considered getting one. In fact I get quite insulted when people see my HD2 and say "is that an IPhone?" to which I reply "No it fu*king isn't"..
It's no wonder developers create tons for the iPhone, it's an easy way to cash in. Just a shame WM is left behind in this aspect a little. I still wouldn't change my HD2 for any other phone, especially iPhone.
I think it's unfair of some people to insult someone, or say "go get an IPhone" just for simply asking about a game or program. Granted a lot of HD2 users seem to be ex IPhone users, I've seen posts where people just seem to want the HD2 exactly like the iPhone. Some people on XDA get very touchy when you mention the iPhone, wonder why...
Just annoys me when they say 'Go buy an Iphone' If I had wanted one I would have one lol Not exactly a helpful answer.

And it's a very simple answer. You want it doesn't mean you'll get it. That's life. Mainly for marketable reasons, but what's the point of explaining it to you as you don't seem to have a grasp of proper language.
And since you call people retards for telling you the facts of life, maybe it's only fitting that I can tell you as a fact that you'll NEVER see this game on HD2 for sure, in the similar form as on the Iphone. I bet my life on it.

So what would be a helpful answer?
THERE IS NO WAY YOU'LL GET THAT GAME ON HD2. Unless the conglomerate that developes it decides to throw a bone to Winmo, which will be the day hell freezes over.
Put it nicely to you, you don't get it. Tell you the facts, you brand them as unhelpful. WTF do you want from us? We don't exactly poop COD Nazi Zombies out our arses just because you want it. Grow some common-sense please.

Go get an iphone isn't a valid responce. Wasn't like I was asking the question how can I make my phone be an Iphone. It's like Xbox and PS3 the game will play on both but I want the Xbox not the PS3. Shouldn't be to hard and was asking a simple question. I liked your responce about FPSece as It is good but doesn't match the quality of the COD game on Iphone.
This guy has come here to ask a simple question and he ends up getting flamed! What's wrong with some people!?!? This forum has some very very good and helpfull people, It is also full of people who have nothing better to do than sit and go through posts looking for people to flame.

Well said Thank You
Flaming hot
I agree,
Too many *kids* on here get stiff when someone says they want specific soft that may be apple related.
God damn it.
There may have been some sort of equiv game from other publisher or other ideas - or using Call of Duty on PS1 emulator....Or just to say "yay I love Nazi zombies"
- Personally I play world at war Nazi Zombies (PS3) and I love it. Would love something similar on my phone.
There are countless replies that could be given.
Go get an iphone is a childish, pointless, unhelpfull and flaming reply.
(reply)
all i have to say is i love my phone and i have an xbox 360 but the thing is i want it to be portable it is an awsome game and there is no reason that it shouldnt be on windows mobile...

NDS Emulator...Possible?

Before I get flamed, I just want to say that I couldn't find a thread after a search. "DS" is pretty short for a search
Looking at the DS's specifications (understand that we'd only need to look at the specs of the ORIGINAL DS; they can play any game that the others can), it seems very doable: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS#Technical_specifications
Here's the NDS emulation link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS_emulation
An open-source NDS emulator written in C++ for Windows: http://dualis.1emu.net/files/index.html
It's been done for Windows, the specs appear to be doable, so I was just wondering...what's stopping us?!
it may be just me... lol..........
but i'm pretty sure the ds utilizes 2 screens.................................
my hd2 only has 1..... maybe mine's defective??
How is it done on the PC? It's split down the middle. The touch (or on PC, mouse) is only active on the bottom. Next time try thinking before making a wise comment
i know. what a jerk. ignorant people make ignorant comments
I imagine it would be if someone put in the time. Haven't seen alot of interest though
Hi
I had a look at the wiki page you pointed to and I think the Emulation link may be more helpful, I can't check any of those out as I'm at work and the fun police have blocked them :/
Wiki emulation link is;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS_emulation
Maybe there are some developers on those sites which are interested in working on a version for winmo, similar to FPSECE the PS1 emulator for winmo devices.
Again, just putting some helpful information out there: http://www.ndsemulator.com/nds-emulator.htm
Also note that we wouldn't need the ARM 7 processor because it's used solely for GBA emulation on the DS (or am I incorrect?). Here is what I can find as the "best" emulator for PC: http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/gba/nocashgba.html
I'd love to have this functional on my HD2. Not only does it take advantage of the touch screen, but the iffy multitouch support wouldn't even be necessary - the DS doesn't support it itself!
@lexx-luthor
Thanks for the link, hope you don't mind if I throw it in the first post.

lol funny... try thinking before you post kid...
comparing a fully running pc.. and its MONITOR... i'd be shocked if it didn't run ds games.... are you still a little confused here??
and before i totally crush your little dreams of playing a nintendo ds on your hd2... it's just plain and simply not possible.. the end...
think about the buttons.. .. lets say we did split the hd 2 screen in half.... so a portion of it would be the touch screen... where would the "nintendo ds hardware buttons be??
think morph gear.. think playstation emulator.....
there would have to be a gamepad.. on the lower half of the screen.... which would probably get in the way of what was supposed to be the "touch" part of the ds.....
so yea.. forgive my tone.. if they are insulting to you.. but common sense is something i take a little seriously..... especially if someone is gonna try and "correct" someone....
dismissed
Does it really take a fully-fuctional PC to emulate a 67 MHz processor and 32 MB of RAM? Is the HD2's 1 GHz processor and 448 MB RAM not enough, even if the game does peak and use all of the 67 MHz and 32 MB? Why would a monitor make a difference at all? If the screen is split, the top part would act as a monitor. So, again, if you're going to be an ass then think about what you're going to say first.
It would be possible the same way that FPSECE is - with a Bluetooth controller such as the BGP100: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_667zwB3nLE
I feel like I'm "correcting" you quite well actually. So, again, thanks for trying. Anything else?
Lol!
Should re name this the *****in thread!
No, no one has released anything that will play NDS games.. yet...
I agree, It wouldn't be very functional with the lay out along with the additional buttons needed. Your right, you could add the controller however wouldn't be a very practical emulator if you HAD to have one, would it?
So bottom line, I very much doubt you'll see one, not for a while anyway.
No need to hate on people for giving their opinion, and personally I like people with a sense of humor!

@Projekt
Why couldn't you just answer in a manner such as that?
I do agree that it would be less than optimal to require a controller, but FPSECE requires one as well and there are many people that use it as far as I know. I understand why you say that we may not see one for a while, but I'd rather keep dreaming

All these ..... are getting me confused!!
I agree with snowblind, its probably very possible just a little impractical. Personally I can't really see the point in gaming on a mobile phone with a controller. If I want to do that I'll just go on my 360 or PS3.
I heard the next iteration of the DS will have phone capabilities built in. You heard it here first!
Edit: Its work in progress but here is version 0.1...

i somehow doubt that as well... not saying that it couldn't happen... but like the OP's idea... it is just simply not gonna work...
nintendo would have to start a whole new service... for their phone services... despite the financial aspect of it... starting a phone company isn't as easy as 1,2,3....
but ehh.. people can dream.... i'm not gonna argue about that... just stick to the classics yea OP?? morphGear is fantastic... and playing true classics like that on my mobile phone is a dream come true... the ds is already a "mobile" device... its a handheld gaming unit... therefore making it on the phone would more so be a way to "show off" the phones capabilities... (which are gonna become obsolete in about a year... but thats a different topic..) rather then a practical use... morphgear or playstation emulators are perfect because i simply cannot take my super nintendo everywhere... nor my PSOne.... are ya getting it now??

I guess you found this forum by searching on net. So you could use same method on the forums too. Just a simple search would give you excellent results.

Don't take it personally.
Was recommended this forum from a friend off BBS air guns he said it was a great forum where the people are very helpful and this is the place to fined all I need for my phone.
I have had a look through but it all seems gobblygook to me I just know I will end up doing something to my phone of shouldn't
Get registered at freeware pocket pc then download oMarket on your phone. It is a free app marketplace similar to WM marketplace. Also, go to hd2apps blog. Tons of apps and games (all free), best site imo. If you like to know people's recommended apps, go to TMobile HD2 forum, there are several threads there dedicated for that, just do a search. That is where newbies should go first before dabbling into XDA as in my opinion this forum is more for relatively advanced users...for tweaking and customization, a little less on apps and games.
Cheers for that
Welcome to the HD2 world here on XDA.
I totally understand how everything can be/is confusing at first. Having the phone for a day or so and not knowing what is out there to do even a general search. Reading the posts here will give you a general knowledge of the cab files that will enhance and customize your new phone to your liking. It really isnt that hard once you start playing around a bit.
Might I suggest bookmarking this forum, and keeping an eye on it. Lots of stuff here to do to your phone. Also read though all the posts in the "post your leo today screens" thread. tons of stuff there, and everyone shares what they have.
Please do remember the search feature is your friend. New threads with the same old questions that have been posted and answered 50 times will most likely only get you a few pointed responses.
Hope you enjoy your new HD2 phone and your time here.

What sort of stuff are you looking for?
Finding my way round got some top apps already my phone is starting to become mine now
Have seen some pics on here where the phone has a smart looking top bar where the start and signal strength is anyone know a link to where I can find one. Have look for one but don't know what it's called
Cheers sniper-wolf for the heads up, name can't be as bad as mine

No worries mate, glad you are getting somewhere, I reckon Livebait is an ok name, could be worse, could be something like Bigred1.
The bit you're lookin for is called a taskbar, here's a few to be going on with........

try .... www.fpsece.net
get the supporter version and register on the forum to get the right set-up files for the HD2.
It's a playstation one emulator and its really good.
There's loads of help videos on the forum to help you get it started and it's well worth the effort!
I'd also recommend getting the paid version of myPlayer... there's more uk digital live channels that work really well.
other good games....

Hey livebaituk,
Have you formatted the card before using it? Try that first....
Otherwise, did you buy it from eBay?? I had the same problem with the one I got from there, did a quick test on it and it turned out to be fake!
Use the program below to test the memory card and see if that's the problem....
(you will need to have a microSD convertor to use direct with your computer, either to usb or to SD if you have a SD card reader).
That's all I can think of, hope that helps,
