I just installed the game on my an Evo and it works.

Suggestions:

- Instructions on how to play, move, goals.

- The two player mode was hard navigate. Attempting to select the second player brought the first player to the second players location. Confirming movement when over a second player would be a plus.

- Background sound, maybe waves, music, ocean sound.

- Instead of pumping up the graphics, keep it simple, but decorate the maps.

- Add a story plot at the intro.

Well thats my opinion, love the work, I hope we'll see more. Thanks for sharing.
[Android Apps and Games] m2tt:
Great feedback guys, thanks! I've whipped up a How-to guide and posted it on the site (I can't post links yet I guess, but you can get to it from the market)

alovell83, the back button issue should be fixed in 1.3, can you confirm if you're still having issues after upgrading? (Actually introduced a new bug in the process, now it's a little too eager to quit when the back button is hit)

I think it's time I get to work on a settings menu, since everyone is going to have a different preference, so far I'm thinking adjustable HUD/icon sizes, ship selection method (tap, double tap, long press), and game speed. Any other suggestions?

I'm also planning to add a few new special items in the near future. I've got a couple ideas, but if anyone has suggestions for this, now's the time!

Back to the graphics, the castle graphic is probably the best example of what I'm ultimately aiming for, clean and simple...but throwing in some terrain decorations is a good idea, and I'm sure it will help a lot towards bringing the maps to life.

[Android Apps and Games] leadfoot9281:
Well it works good so far on the hero. And I have seen apps way worse that you have to pay for. So by the time your done I'm sure it will be great.
[Android Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Any way you could provide an APK? I don't know what's going on with my phone but the Market keeps crashing every time I try to DL Pirate Skirmish... not other apps, just that one. Weird.
[Android Apps and Games] m2tt:
Sure thing, here is the .apk for version 1.3.2 just published including the How to Play link from the main menu, thanks again everyone.

Since 1.3.1 I haven't seen any crashes in the dev console, but as far as I know these only show up for 2.2 devices. So again, if anyone is getting a repeatable crash, please send me the logcat output and a quick description of how you caused it. If you don't have adb installed on your computer there is another great app called Catlog in the market that will let you save and send logs from your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Awesome, thanks! I'll report back after trying it out a bit.

Update:

I got a "This application closed unexpectedly" within a minute or so... I was trying to attack a castle and I was tapping it over and over. I am on 2.2 using a Desire ROM by mattc on an HD2. HD2 normally doesn't have any issues that standard Android devices don't have, but who knows depending on how the app works... I don't have ADB, but I'll go get Catalog and send logs if I can figure it out.

i have the brown one -,-

wish i knew about the black one before purchase

all i ever saw in shops was the brown one (even on the internet - i have seen a few shots of the black one but i thought it was with some cover or something) so i assumed they only come in brown color :F

white one looks like it shows dirt/sweat after 5sec
[Desire General] aindow:
The black one is exclusive to Orange in the UK, not sure if its available in other countries or not.

The white looks nice but looks like it'll soon look dirty though
[Desire General] kekkle:
I got a silver one. Absolutely love it. Also because it's more rare. Few people have the Silver version.
[Desire General] pwhooftman:
Silver one just looks cheap, compared to brown one. The high contrast of the Amoled screen just comes out more prominent on the brown one. I was a bit worried when ordering, but i still think the brown one is the prettiest.
[Desire General] antu_pogroms:
I wonder if anyone else notice this. The aluminum trim around the screen on my brown desire change colour depends on sunlight. Sometime it looks like brown, light blue, and dark grey.

Totally agree with all if this. IMHO, all other colours just don't cut it. I love my brownish Desire, wouldn't trade it for any other colour.

[Desire General] dysje:
I originally went looking all over the place for the silver one, but eventually settled for the brown one as that one was easier to get my hands on a while back. Kind of happy with the decision, in pictures the brown one is horrible to look at, but if you hold it in your hand and/or hold a silver one next to it, the silver one looks like crap. Brown does work, just not in the pictures.

The white one also looks good in the pictures, but I wonder what it'll end up looking like once you actually hold it in your hands and work with it.
[Epic 4G General] DevilDogVIKING:
Anyone else having this problem. So far it's happened twice on me. I click the power button to lock the screen and then I come back to it a minute later and it's off. I try to turn it back on but it doesn't unless I remove and replace the battery.
[Epic 4G General] Firon:
I had this problem, even while running stock everything. The phone is very likely defective. I had to exchange it at the Sprint store.
[Epic 4G General] DevilDogVIKING:
I probably will do that if it happens more
[Epic 4G General] nmezib:
Are you using SetCPU or anything like that? That happened to me one morning (because I set the minimum clock frequency too low: 100 MHz) and it wouldn't come back on save for a battery pull. I think the minimum safe frequency to prevent that from happening is around 400 MHz... but then there's no reason to have setCPU installed in the first place.

If that's not your case, then it's probably a defective phone, go and exchange it if that happens again.
[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
Maybe related, maybe unrelated, but mine did the same thing after installing SetCPU and setting the profile to "OnDemand".

After actually reading the SetCPU info, it says on the Galaxy S phones the "OnDemand" will cause issues and you should use the "Conservative" setting to have it auto-scale the CPU to usage demand.

Swapped mine to that, and no issues since.
[Epic 4G General] APOLAUF:
I've had this happen on occasion with an unresponsive program that is hogging the CPU. Mashing the power button repeatedly has little effect, so I just give it a few seconds, and try again. I don't think it has ever taken longer than 30 seconds to respond. Apps that can trigger this behavior include the AP News app, which is terribly-coded and even less responsive. Don't fault the device - it's just unresponsive software. As capable as the CPU and OS are, it's still possible to get a hangup like that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zacelliott:
Hey all, my girlfriend got a US Cellular Touch Pro 2, and I got it to run on AT&T, and its ran pretty good for a few months, but now she's getting upset because its being slow and last night it wasn't showing call logs/sms past September 2nd, even though she's received many since than, and when I tried calling her, it showed up as "Unknown" even though i'm in her phone book, the date was also wrong, showing it sometime in July. So its becoming frustrating for her. My question is, is there a custom ROM (I'm an Android guy and have a few Roms on my Incredible) that I can put on her phone that will speed the phone up and make it more usable, and still keep the GSM functionality? Is there any way to do this? If not what are some speed tips and other tips to make the phone more usable? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] charleswesde:
Id hard reset, task 29 then flash the rom of your choice. Theres a whole host of em over at ppcgeeks for cdma users. Adjust your settings (internet, mms etc) and grab any cabs you'll need or want (att keyboard fix or any att specific programs youll want to run) then yous hould be good to go.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zacelliott:
So do I need to find a CDMA ROM that supports a SIM Card? Or find a GSM ROM? I was thinking Mighty Rom looked pretty good, but I have no idea on what to do to go about setting it up for her. I remember paying $20 to get a SIM Unlock, CID Unlock and Security Unlock tool, and then I did some ROM flash of a custom Sprint ROM to get AT&T to work on it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] howhi50:
Yes you are going to need a cdma rom if the phone is cdma regardless of At&t being the current service provider. Otherwise you will brick the phone. I have a sprint touch pro2 running At&t with no problems using nrg rom over at ppcgeeks.

Link to thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/cdma-tp2-upgrades/86489-rhodcmda-energy-sep-8-21916-24634-sense-2018-a.html

I would recommend the cookie rom version since that is the one that I use all the time. I've tried all the other but I keep coming back. But there's a nice variety so the choice is really yours/hers.

I would also recommend to task 29 and since you too have your phone unlocked to at&t (sim unlock) use the same unlocker radio in the task 29 so you get a clean and working radio/rom. Have her backup her texts, contacts, calendar etc using pim manager or microsoft myphone or active sync if she chooses so.

If you run into any problems you can post here, pm me, or even drop by in the nrg forum on ppcgeeks where there are many others willing to help first timers.

Best wishes man

Edit: Quick tip. It really does help to clear out text messages and email every once in awhile. This is known to cause instability. (degraded speed, errors...) If you don't feel like flashing a new rom you could just hard reset the phone which may fix whatever issues. Just know it will delete everything and those problems may still be on the device. It really is best just to task 29 and try a new rom especially since almost anything is better than the stock sprint one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pf:
Why to change ROM? It seems that only the TP2 has to be cleaned up, as you should do time by time.

The easiest way to do this is using SK Tools. There are all the possibilities to clean a PPC in there with just a finger touch: Beginning with cleaning temp-folders up to cleaning the registry. I do this about once a month and have no problems like describben.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
I'm tired of weak signal areas where I slip in and out of roaming, is there a forced roaming app or some type of hack/mod where I can make my phone roam?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
You have two choices:

1) Load a Verizon PRL. This involves a good amount of trickery (I haven't tested it myself) but there's instructions around here. This will get your 3G data as well.

2) Get a ROM such as CyanogenMod which has a forced-roaming option. Open up Settings>Wireless & networks>Mobile networks and in there will be an option to select what group (Home Only, Affiliated Networks, Automatic. Automatic is default) of networks to choose. By selecting Affiliated Networks, that will enable forced-roaming, but will only give you 1X data, not 3G.

For calls, Twitter, and push notifications, the 1X data roaming will suffice, especially if you want to switch back and forth (ie, the bad signal is only at work, but you have good reception everywhere else). Personally, I switch to Affiliated Networks when I'm at work, as getting calls and texts is a lot more important for my job than just being able to download a webpage faster.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
Damn so I'd have to switch to a ****ty rom to get the option?

A ****ty ROM? That's kind of harsh dude... i thought that someone had an app that did the same thing as the affiliated network switch in CM6?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
"****ty ROM"? Have you even tried CM6 Final? Furthermore, go screw yourself with a rusty rake. Nobody's going to help an ungrateful prick.

That requires that EPST even works for your ROM, and unless you have the ever-so-wonderful battery and CPU hogging Sense UI, it won't.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
Actually I'm very grateful that you took the time to help, didn't mean to offend, I apologize if you took it that way (now that I re-read my comment, I see why you took it that way) but I was just frustrated because I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, either go through with a procedure I'm not comfortable with OR flashing a ROM that (and this is the whole reason I called it ****ty) doesn't have sense nor does it even have 4G - one of the MAIN REASONS FOR ME BUYING THE PHONE! Understand my dilemma?

I use 4G regularly, so CM6 is a huge no-no for me.

please

thank you in advance
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
Have you tried other steps besides the battery removal? (By the way, the reset button is just below and to the left of the battery. It is a small yellow or red dot. Though removing the battery may be faster, you risk damaging the contacts each time you do so.)

You might try doing a hard reset. This is the one that wipes your phone's memory and will delete everything you've added including contacts and applications. To get your contacts back in a hurry, sync with Gmail before your hard reset and again after. I keep all of my cabs in a folder on my microSD card for getting my apps back faster after a flash.

If the issue continues and you want to keep you phone stock (i.e. under warranty), you should contact T-Mobile and ask for assistance. They will suggest a hard reset and then probably just a hardware warranty exchange.

Grab the CSC you want from this thread's first post or anywhere else you find one, and then flash it to the CSC in Odin.

If you aren't familiar with Odin, you need to do some reading in the FAQ and the section, it's all described here.

I personally use the CSC that comes with firmware JM5 (search the thread for it or find it on the http://www.samfirmware.webs.com)...it's pretty clean of junk and works with rooting via update.zip)
