Jaguar Land Rover. - Android General

Does anyone know if the infotainment system in modern Jaguar Land Rovers is based on Android? Have a good friend with a 2013 XJ and I opened my mouth suggesting there would be a update. Then I suddenly though of this forum. Thank you

[IDEA] LocoRoco game clone

Hi all, just signed up here, have been browsing around for a while.
I was thinking that LocoRoco or a LocoRoco like game would be ideal for any phone with a Gyroscope or Accelerometer; of which there are many.
I thought that LocoRoco would be ideal as it would not require any hardkey mapping, as the game, which is originally a PSP title, only uses the L and R keys to tilt the screen left and right. (Which could possibly be duplicated by tilting the phone left and right)
Unfortunately I have no developing skills so I would be useless if it came to helping with the development of it.
I searched to see if there had been any other interest in LocoRoco coming to Android or Windows Mobile, and fair to say there were 1or2 threads dating back to 2008-2009, but neither of which attracted a lot of attention.
Sorry I couldn't add a link to the game, new user restrictions
thanks, andy.
There's a very good chance we'll see PSP games in the Android Market sometime soon
Oh, that's good to hear
thanks

It's just speculation at the moment but rumour is the PSP2 will be a Phone, an Android phone at that, so they can compete better with the DS. It's a solid rumor, gone back ages and the Android link comes from Sony's new relationship with google and... let's face it, It's gonna be a smart phone if it does happen and they're not going to pick Symbian over Android especially after the success of the X10.
I don't think they'd scap their digital distribution they got started with the PSP Go, especially because each "PSP Phone" would have 3G. So it would either be a dedicated market just for PSP games or they would distribute them throughout the Android Market.
Who knows, perhaps the "PSP Phone" isn't a specific handset but them distributing via several on the android market (assumption would be they're locked only to SE phones but I'm sure this could be overcome).
Hate to say I told you so

iQuarium coming soon to Android!

Greetings!
I don't know how many of you actually played iQuarium on iOS, but it probably is the only pointless-waste-of-time game I play on the iPhone 3g I keep as my third device.
I sent an email to idreams yesterday regarding a possible port to android, and guess what!
Dear Customer,
We are very happy that you like our game.
iQuarium will be released for Android soon, we are already working on that.
best regards,

And finally, it's here

HORN - Excellent action/rpg adventure game for iOS, iPad and Android. Need support XP

After the great Alaron HD, Horn arrives.
HORN is a 3rd person action adventure game - a completely unique experience where anyone can fully explore and enjoy a beautiful and engaging console-style world, all controllable by touch gestures.
You play as a young blacksmith's apprentice named Horn who wakes up to find your village and lands over run by large fantastic, and sometimes humorous, monsters. It is revealed these creatures are actually the people and animals from your village transformed by a curse, and you alone have the power to free them. On your incredible adventure you carry the loud-mouthed head of one such fantastic creature with you - a somewhat uncooperative and ill-tempered but grudgingly helpful sidekick. Along with this new companion you must use your sword, crossbow, trusty musical horn, and wits to explore the lands, defeat the enemies, and solve puzzles in your quest to undo the curse that engulfs your homeland.
Horn features:
∗ Accessible controls that anyone can use- walking, jumping, crawling, even grapple hook, are all performed with intuitive gestures
∗ Freely navigable console-quality detailed world- go wherever you want; not confined to limited path or rail
∗ A rich and unique fantasy world
∗ Touch-friendly melee combat and crossbow style weapons
∗ 3 unique and beautiful lands to discover
∗ Endlessly escalating challenge modes
∗ Hidden side content to discover
∗ Score written by award winning Austin Wintory and performed with full live orchestral
Coming to Android for Tegra devices.

Not the date "Horn" come to Android, but if so, we should be asking developers to optimize it for our Xperia Play from now. If you find any information or sending email to get our email, put it in this post.
regards
P.d: It is like putting the video for "youtube" to make it look right. If someone tells me I put.

This is good news, I see more than certain that they will adapt the game to more Android handsets. Hopefully future updates and see if we get lucky and llegua to Xperia Play with optimized pad. No doubt his response has been encouraging.
The more we are asking our support for Xperia Play, better!

ME WANT THIS.

No offence, but i doubt this would come to the Xperia play. It uses unreal engine as far as i know and the studios other game, Dark meadows, was only available for tegra devices.

Yes, that's possible. But there are games Tegra running perfectly in Xperia Play remember like Samuray II Vengeance, SoulCraft and others games. I have hope that optimize this game, but if you do not optimize your pad to use, perhaps using Chainfire3D...
Works on iPhone4. As AralonHD, which later adapted to Android and works wonders on Xperia Play.
Hopefully more news to see what happens. :fingers-crossed:
Sorry TC it will not get optimized. Nvidia paid big money to make it Tegra exclusive. Same situation with Dark Meadow. The devs could make it for all android devices if they wanted , but they like how closed the Tegra chip is (like iOS) and since Nvidia is giving them money , they feel its the safest for them.
They dont want to work with every type of Android chipset.
Horn isn't tegra exclusive is it? I thought it was just coming first to tegra then later on other android devices?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
I dont know about Horn exactly , but i really wanted to play Dark Meadows and sent them many emails. They answered and stated that its not that they are "exclusive" its more like its not financially viable for them , as a small company , to support many android chipsets. With Tegra , Nvidia gave them money and the chipset itself is a "safe" investment for them.
For it is a shame, then I will mourn ....
Try running it with Chainfire3D ...
This doesn't even work on my 4th gen iPod Touch, so I highly doubt it'll work on the Xperia Play
Guys look at the grafics and stay realstic. This is way better then dungeon defenders wich was not smooth on the play. If this comes to the play than with dramatic downscaled grafics.
Sent from my MT27i using xda app-developers app
But everything depends on optimizing Android. Recently we have the "Heroes Call" Initially, this action game and RPG appeared on the "Google Play Store" exclusively for mobile phones with more powerful processors (Tegra 2 and 3), but with the promise that they would be available for all other models before the end of the summer. And it seems that its developers have word, because here we have the latest update, suitable for any Android ..
Those are the examples that make me think positively.:laugh:
This has been released:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Phosphor.Horn.Paid
Is it compatible with Xperia play?

Bad news, is not supported. That is to put Tegra 2 and 3. Heroes do as I wish with Call and pick it out for others as Android. What a shame.
The only gamer phone and these news games are just for those non-gamer phones its funny.

I know, but think the post so that together Xperia Play users ask, we optimize this game for our terminal. Let's send an email to the developers.

I have a question. HORN that this game does not require android 3.2 onwards? ie. even though I do not tegra optimizen smartphone .. We could not play our Xperia Play with Gingerbread ..
I know that there is a nearly perfect ICS rom is the Unofficial release .. but does not support so many other games, or is one or the other .
---------- Post added at 07:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 AM ----------
but also another user who joins the petition. I've already sent an email to developers. I hope it becomes bigger every time the request and listen to us.
It would be great to get to these levels of graphics and to play games with the Unreal Engine in our Xplay ..
has anyone tried this game with gamekeyboard?
The game is incompatible with the Xperia play

crazy taxi just announced for ios in October what about android?

Ok crazy taxi by sega was just announced for ios but there was no word of android ,this will really piss me off if sega really leaves android out of this great dreamcast port ,& I would not be surprised because we still dont have soul calibur & its been on ios for over 8months already ,but this will be sad & disrespectful to android users if were left out in the cold
I think we will be left out. There are quite a few quality games that android doesn't get and it's a shame
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Let's hope. Don't forget Sega has been good to us android users of late. Every title (approx) this year has come out on both platforms. We also got football manager before IOS as well (makes a change) if jet set radio is coming to android there is a good chance this will too. Fingers crossed people. :fingers-crossed:

A few lol examples- soul calibur, rage, infinty blade, marvel vs capcom2, fight night champions, streetfighter x tekken, & theres a few more & gameloft games take forever to come ,but if they say jet set was coming to ios & android why wouldnt they do the same for crazy taxi why just have that for ios only ,also speaking of jet set where the hell is it if crazy taxi is coming in October

Lol that trailer just looks so rushed almost fake even but what weird is it specifically says ipod,iphone,&ipad like android is definetly left out ,i remember the soul calibur trailer being just like that not having android being mentioned at all , & they made sure they mentioned ios & android for jet set ,so either there very lazy or it really isnt coming to android ,but I hope it does come to android cause crazy taxi is my second favorite dreamcast game

LOL was thinking that when i watched all 11 seconds of that video. Maybe its not but lets hope a better version of this comes out first.
Then we can play what we want
Well, instead of wondering if they will bring it; how about we ask them to do it on their official blog?
I already did my part. I want this on my XPlay!
Wouldn't surprise me. iOS has a much lower piracy rate. So blame the people who pirate every app and game they come across for Android.
I am even more sad now that I hear that this is going to release tomorrow ios only
Good news is that there will be an android version releasing soon just no word when

Source?
Well the source for this I got from Google itself many many websites state that an android version is also coming soon ,just Google (crazy taxi on android) just make sure your search tool is on past 24hrs and you will see lots of websites saying sega confirms an android version ,im not surprised android does take way longer to optimize games for since theres so many different android devices,but I really hope xperia play is not left out since buttons would be great for this game ,i hope they dont pull a nba 2k13 & have it for 4.0 & up only
Found it written on the official Sega blog so its 100% Yay
Awesome!
Includes the original soundtrack! :victory:
Guys, it's not coming to Android.
No source on this, just pure common sense. It's now May - nearly June - that's nearly 8 months.
It's obvious why...
Fragmentation. It's really hard to build a game that works on a myriad of resolutions, iOS only has 5 resolutions, and two of those are @2x, making it easy to optimse for them.
Piracy. It's so so so so SO much harder to pirate apps on iOS than on Android. Some devs literally 'give up' on Android, and it's a shame that there are so many inconsiderate people who ruin it for the rest of the crowd.
It's harder. Apple has made sure to create really good tools for it's developers. Google's tools are intuitive, but nowhere near as intuitive as Apple's.
Overall, it's a shame. I really looked forward to having Crazy Taxi on the Nexus 7, but I guess that;s not happening.
making an ios app is much harder than making an android app
dont speak like that
android is best operating system for mobile phones and tablets
ios is just a tiny closed source os thati cant even get it on my hand for 5 mins

[Q] wouldn't kitkat be a great Halloween treat

Just wondering since it is 25 October and the required Silence is over, wouldn't KitKat be a great Halloween treat? Kitkat and nexus5 as well? Trick or treat?
Maybe. Please use the existing threads to post 'these kind of things', if you know what I mean..
It would.
Except people go out trick or treating, horror movie screaming or drinking on Halloween.
So no bad idea for a Halloween release.
