In Clarkston? He's my brother-in-law's brother, so last time he was around here I just asked if I could use his name and image and he had no problem with it! Trust me there will be no big-time royalties headed his way lol.

Phone as a controller, eh? I thought about that, but I wouldn't want to be flinging my phone around like that and lose control of it accidentally. So what I did was just use the accelerometer tilt of the phone (left or right) to tilt your skateboard forward or backwards, thus landing on your front or rear trucks. I have yet to finish implementing that system, but when I do it can be used for manuals and 5-0 grinds, while ollie based tricks will still be touch-based.

lol just kidding. hope the final release comes. I love skateboard games.

Updated OP with new video. I'm open to any suggestions for this game. I know graphics is the one major thing that needs improvement, unfortunately I'm not a graphics designer. I just ripped the cartoon skater from Yahoo Avatar, hehe :p

I updated the original post again with an apk of the game in its current form. Hopefully I can get some more feedback on the game this way.

New Build Available

There's a new version now linked in the first post. Very similar, but several small fixes and now it should scale properly to a small resolution screen. Also I forgot to mention this, where it says "GameSpeed" on the top left of the screen, if you click that you can speed up or slow down time, just for fun or if you want to get to the halfpipe quickly set it to 2x and jet there!

Please give some feedback, those who have tried my game. Thank you very much!
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:

I added a new build of the game to the first post. Try it out and let me know what needs to be done to improve it before I release it on the market. Thanks!

Fresh Build SMSBeta

I put up a new version in the first post, bump!
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:
Nice! this has potential!

Next big step is new tricks, if you ask me.

Keep on it!
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Thanks dude. But you were wrong about the next big step. That can be the next next big step.

I ported the graphics from java canvas graphics (simple 2D, uses a lot of CPU power) over to OpenGL (2D/3D, uses less CPU and uses hardware graphics acceleration). It only took a week, and the results are amazing, This adds support for a zooming camera, and a 3D-looking environment. As soon as I put in a menu and some text display HUD I will put another update on here. Trust me this is a sweet update.
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:
Alright, sounds very impressive!
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
New version up for testing in first post! It's almost fully ported over from the old version, plus a ton of new camera features and levels and gameplay tweaks, and a new skateboard. Work in progress :)
[Android Apps and Games] XsceneXhippieX:
The new version is really buggy for me, the graphics dont ever appear, I tried redownloading/installing but same results, white blocks and nothing with sound effects for trick motions, 2.3.3 cm7
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Hey, you got better results than me with Gingerbread. It would force close without loading any graphics at all. I have a Droid and I tried 3 different Gingerbread roms, but it would force close. Sorry, but I will have to look into that more. This game runs on 2.2 and 2.1 only, but that is subject to change once I figure out the deal with Gingerbread (2.3) and it should work on 1.6 but I am not planning on allowing that because barely any phones run 1.6 anymore.

If you really want to try it, backup your system and flash a 2.2 build.
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:
I like the new graphics and the controls below the skater a lot :) very handy

Also flip animations seem to be smoother or at least prettier!

Keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Thanks, yay! There's a new board, it's actually a Blind deck, so it def. looks prettier. And yeah it runs way smoother, the game engine tries to run at 60 fps and the graphics are separate, they run as fast as they can.
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Gingerbread-ready version is up in the first post. Simple bug, but I'm not sure why they changed it. Now if I want to use one texture across all 3 types of phone size, I have to have 3 copies of that image? Well that fixed the bug anyway, but the apk file is bigger now.
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Must Update

This one fixes some key memory issues, that I was hogging up all your phone's memory before, and now I am not! Game now loads in 5 seconds for my Droid 1. If you just downloaded recently, try this new one and you will keep more free memory on your phone and it will play smoother! Check the first post for the file, as always. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ablivian:
It runs very smooth on my hero with cm 7. But i only see a white rectangle moving. Hope you can fix it
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:
Seems like i can only play level 1. Both level 2 and 3 crash when i select them.. :/

reboot fixed this somehow..
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
I'm wondering if all the problems with the textures not loading have to do with the custom ROMs that people are running... Cause I can run the Android emulator with 1.6, 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3 with screen size 480x320 or 800x480 and it always shows the textures. Unless it is a texture format issue, I've heard that some phones support different texture formats.

If it is not loading a level, just keep trying and wait a while. But once it loads a few times it gets quicker, because it kinda remembers where everything is in the memory and can load it quicker the next time.

Anyone have feedback about the actual game? I'm thinking about putting this up on the Market as a "beta" version soon since it is working great for every phone that I've tried it on (Droid 1, Incredible, Atrix 4G, and HTC Touch even).
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:
The game is great! But the only thing im missing are more tricks. Espacially grinds/slides. But i think thats not the problem for you since youre still working on the grpahics :) (what is as important as everything else ofc.)
[Android Apps and Games] drkow19:
Development Update

Hey everyone out there following this game. I'm still working on finishing it up, but I'm almost done! I've added many things, but the graphics and gameplay are still the same as before. Made a few cool changes to the physics system that I think you will enjoy, like automatic takeoff on a jump (if you don't ollie in time) and down rails over stairs.

I've recently been working on the career mode, so there is a purpose to the game now! It tracks your points for the 2 minute run mode, and you unlock more levels with more total points. I haven't actually played through it completely yet, 120,000 points is a lot! Plus I keep uninstalling it when I get a bug in the code, which resets the high scores.

So anyway I am probably just going to put it on the market soon, and I won't be posting another beta on here. But when I do put the beta on the market I will update here and see if I can't link straight to it. Hopefully sometime next week!

-MMK
[Android Apps and Games] m0jo:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samrozzi:
ok ive been rooting my android phones for sometime, so very familiar with that, but as far as kernals go pretty clueless. Im pretty sure you just flash them like any rom?

but as far as what they do i know alot do speed type things, but I remember reading that some kernals got rid of the 30fps lock, but limited the camera, is their anyone that gets rid of the 30fps and keeps camera fully functional?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nukedukem:
The broken camera was an issue before the htc source code was released. Camera should be fine with any newer kernel.

Just put the kernel on the root of your sd card and boot into recovery mode. Flash and reboot.

Easiest way is to load the power control widget and cycle through the brightness levels. If the brightness changes instantly, its Epson, if it fades to each level, its nova.

Ok, I tried searching but didn't find anything so I'll just ask... I've noticed when I first boot up, atk says I have around 250mb available memory but throughout the day it decreases to around 180 even though atk says there is nothing running...does that mean there are hidden processes that start throughout the day that potentially drain my battery and how can I stop them?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
You can go to settings in atk and go to security level and change that to low, be careful with what processes you decide to kill though.

I only just found out we can have android on the HD2, I've added FroyoStone (http://gamesquare.co.uk/froyostone.htm) and just found out I need the 2.08 SPL (Right?) so I can have sound in calls. As I am going to have to do that I may aswell re-start from scratch.

Can you help with a few things please.

What HD2 Rom should I use? Read miri and chunky are good for android (think that's the names).

Can I get Microsoftmyphone on android? If not what's the best way to back up and add them back to the android system?

What are the best Android roms?

Let me know anything else you think is useful too please.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Tachi91:
Chunky? haha... its Chucky.... funny thou

I used to use Active-sync to Sync my contacts with Google.... But once i discovered My-phone i simply disabled Active-sync and was able to upload my contacts to My-phone.. SO it should work the other way around.... Any WM ROM is good as long as it is Android Friendly...

As for Android build... It depends in you preference like with or without Sense... Bangsters ROM allow you to edit the Startup.txt to chose your DPI and set the Amount of Space you want Android to use ex 512MB 1024MB(1G) and so on...

Yes you need 2.08 SPL.. as well as a .50 Radio to avoid Sound issues

Radio :: 2.12.50.02_2 :: is the one I'm using with Miris Barbones WM ROM

I've noticed low in call volume and I was wondering if anyone had a fix or if newer firmware fixes the problem. I'm currently running JH2 which came with the phone. Even at max setting (88) I can barely hear some people.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] solipsism:
I noticed the same thing. I have run a bunch of different firmware and still had the same problem, although I don't remember if the various 2.2 fws had the same issue. IIRC there is another way to turn it up by using some of the factory codes. I don't remember where I saw the thread on that specific issue though.

There is a list of Samsung Handset codes here though http://samfirmware.webs.com/samsungmobilecode.htm
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemethb:
I read up on the factory code thing as well but the fix is only temporary. I'm wondering why others don't seem to have the same problems...I'm assuming it has to do with software and more primarily with Bell (maybe...?). I hope FroYo fixes it...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Draiter:
Get the samsung service mode app... Go into audio, handset, diamond solution, voice booster. Then hit voice booster and the hit the menu key and select keyed input and put in the value 1. This turns voice booster on. Them select limit level and change the value to 12 our something by hitting left menu key and selecting keyed input, lower value is louder. Then user the left menu key and select end. That will increase the volume. The settings aren't permanent. You'll have to input them each time you reset the phone.

Just a quick one as I haven't been able to find a post about it so far...

For those who have heard of PSFreedom, there's a build for the HD2, but it has Android bundled with it because it's aimed at WinMo users.

I am already running Android on mine and dont want to inadvertently copy over vital files so does anyone know/has anyone tried and managed to get it to work?

Pav
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertsDF:
Its not bundled with android because its aimed at winmo users, It has android because the whole android build is custom and needs to be that way(currently). I'm sure sometime soon it will be possible to add to a current android build but for now you have to use it this way.

The easiest thing to do is to download one of the multi loaders for winmo, which lets you have multiple builds of android on you sd card and select which one you boot into. I currently have the PSfreedom build plus four other builds on my SD card and I just select which one I want to boot.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PavPev:
Nice one mate, thanks! I'm gonna trawl for a multi loader and give it a go now :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bangsters:
what exactly does this app do? have a ps3 but never heard of this...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertsDF:
Its a custom build of android that allows you to "jailbreak" the ps3 so that you are able to run homebrew and backup games on it. It needs to be used each time the ps3 is turned on to re-jailbreak it.

It started out as a usb stick with a processor on it that you plugged into the ps3, each time it was turned on. but it has now been ported to many devices.

Heres the link for the android build that has been made for the hd2.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=777120

With the multi-loaders that we have, it's not really that inconvenient to boot into the android build each time. It would be nice though if it could somehow be added to the current full android builds that we have, though I'm not sure if that is even possible as I don't know how it works.

If you are a legitimate beta user, then uninstall your SWYPE and your SWYPE INSTALLER. Go to the swype beta web site; log in; resend invitation. Open the email on your phone. Install the installer. Run the installer. Enter your beta login and password. Let it download the program. Click ENABLE on Swype. Open an email to send. Tap in the message area. Hold in the message area until a box comes up. Choose Input. Change to Swype. Done.
