Tried that and there really isn't any turn based rpgs in that search. It's all turn based strategy games or other stuff with little rpg elements.

Thanks! I knew about this already, just wondering if there were any native android games of these kinds. Good links!

They say its WoW in your pocket, works great on NC

You can download for free on the pocketlegends.com android forum

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
You need to DL nook color tools and unclick/reclick allow installation of downloaded apks. It is checked but doesn't work until you unclick/reclick.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] eusor:
Have you done anything specific to get it running that smoothly? Mine's completely choppy and just unusable...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Nope, just a 1.0.1 autonootered NC. It was actually one of the first apps I installed (I wanted to see what it could do).

Hi all.

For the life of me, I can't get Gun Bros to work.

Do you need Froyo?

Got this version of Scumm working

Got Scumm working with DOTT. Downloaded scummvm-1.2.0-monolithic.apk from here:

sites.google.com/site/scummvmandroid/dev

URL of screenie: i.min.us/icioEi.png
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
I'm still out of luck concerning ScummVM. I got it running CMI with the official version once, but it crashed after some time and then disappeared from my system without even letting me reinstall the apk.

I got it installed after clearing deleting everything scumm-related with root explorer (using the search function). This also happens with the lubomyr's custom builds, but those won't even let me past the download screen:(
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Instant Gravy:
I just loaded up ScummVM 1.2.1 on the new 0.6.6 nookie froyo CWM flashed from the zip without any problems and grabbed some plugins from the market. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis runs just fine with the scumm plugin, no special tweaks to the setup needed. Playing the old Lucas Arts games on a touchscreen is something I never would have imagined back in the day, and makes the experience awesome all over again.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
The latest nookie froyo also seems to work for me. All of lubomyr's apps install and run, including DosBox. I just don't know how to use that one yet (or if it's usable at all).

I still get the app-data download error, but I haven't tried manually downloading them yet.

Edit: How do you right-click in the official ScummVM apk?

EDIT2: Okay everything is up and running now. DosBox runs like crap though

I just played majesty and it runs well, looks gorgeous on the NC screen. There's a lite version avaiable.

I have untangled unlimited, gun bros, minigore, angry birds seasons and blowup all working great. Asphalts buttons aren't aligned right but it plays. I also have a Monsoon Vulkano, like a slingbox, and the app works, sometimes stutters, but again it is made for a phone, not a tab.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] milkeater:
Maybe we could make a Games compatibility list and sticky it.......just a rundown like how they do for the compatibility issues for PS2 HDloader or such....

Maybe have one for Apps and one for Games....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] don_ernesto:
for asphalt, get the galaxy tab version, the 3.1.8 it is free so you wont have problems with validation and all buttons work right

Hmm, spiderman was working before I installed 1.1 but now it, along with shrek kart, just quit immediately upon starting. I tried deleting the sd card content and uninstalling/reinstalling but it still quits after redownloading the content. Anyone else have this problem?

i have the exact same problem on 1.1 with spiderman, havent tried shrek.

asphalt still runs fine tho

For all of you using ScummVM, you might want to try The TouchMod, which alows you to right click and bring up the menus and Keyboard, all with out using phyiscal keys.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] markiejones:
+1

It's weird in that it uses the surface of your nook like the touchpad of a laptop, with a visible pointer. But, the result is that these games are actually playable. Nice find! Tried my old favorite - Day of the tentacle.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] kwheaties:
You need to manually copy the downloaded files over... take a look at the new "EA Games" thread.

Asphalt 5 crashes to home screen after the 2nd stage in the Career mode with a very brief "Cannot play video" message (just like the one that appears when you start the game).

does anybody know a solution?

Great Games!

Walkabout and Grow both look and work flawlessly on our nooks.

Walkabout is a really well put together, unique puzzle/star collecting game. You have to grab all of the stars on a map without going over the same space twice. The graphics are beautiful.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.base2.walkaboutb&feature=search_result

Grow is game about a fish eating other fish. Doesn't sound very exciting, but trust me this game is great. You eat smaller fish and collect coins while the larger fish try to eat you.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.epicpixel.Grow&feature=search_result

These screens are from my nook.

...that choppiness in the first Walkabout pic is from the screenshot app, not the game.

prolly more...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Deadphyre:
I've been trying to find Sacred Odyssey for the nook. Anyone able to find it?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
You have to use the GalaxyTab version (and apparently a modified framework.jar because mine is crashing on boot). :P

This is why CM7 isn't working with gameloft games. It doesn't have an IMEI/MEID #. You can add one by editing framework.jar.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] can teh man:
I couldn't get Worms working on the Nook. It said it had to download 40mb of data then it gave me an error. Can't remmeber off hand but I know it would not go, haha.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] reynart:
Can you please explain, what you mean by that?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Gameloft checks your MEID (CDMA) or IMEI (GSM). CM7 builds list "null" for those numbers.

These are the unique device identifiers for phones/devices.

I found a hacked apk that doesn't check for them. Now the game is up and running.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RASTAVIPER:
I installed it without modifying anything.

Installed first the apk and then just downloaded the sd data
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
I'm running Phiremod 6.0 and it dl'ed the data and then loaded to the menu screen before crashing but then would crash on boot until I used a hacked .apk.

I was using the Galaxy Tab P1000 version of the game.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Masterface7:
I can't remember what gun bros version i had but it was working on my 1.1 rooted. It was however too laggy and not fun compared to just playing it on my phone so i uninstalled it.

edit: I also heard there is a gunbros hd beta out there too. not sure how legit it is though.

Pop Cap games are coming to Android this month and we can get Chuzzle for free from Amazon today. It doesn't look like it's optimized for tablets though, which doesn't bode well for Plants vs. Zombies.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dsf3g:
I'm betting PvZ is optimized for tablets. Chuzzle is really much more of a smartphone trype game anyway, so it doesn't surprise me that Popcap didn't see the need for a tablet optimized version. PvZ is the sort of game that benefits greatly from a larger screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Glotzeulor:
I did exactly that and it worked. But my folder is named com.ea.worms_ROW.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Blue6IX:
On a stock 1.2 Nook, running phiremod 6.1 from the sdcard some good games are:

-3d Magic Words (spend a lot of time with this one)

-Blow Up

-Crystal Defense

-Farm Tower

-FRG (go to for just mindless killing stuff)

-Grave Defense HD (hd is so much more visually pleasing)

-MiniSquadron (old favorite)

-Robo Defense

-Shift

-Squibble

-Super Tumble

Consider duplicate mention to anything others said to be just another vote for that game.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Deadphyre:
Yup, modified it myself for 74. Its fairly easy.I tried one that someone else made and it locked up at boot which is why I had to make one myself. Myeh, I've tried a few other games and it works even.without the modified framework so it could just be the game :-/

I'm (hopefully) getting my HD7 tomorrow, and I am wondering if there is a way to sign into Windows Live WITHOUT having the Hotmail icon show up on the phone?

I don't use hotmail at all, and would much rather just use my GMail account. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.
[HD7 General] kpmblue7:
Yes. I did this with my HD7. I use my Live account for Zune and Xbox, and Gmail for mail. If, when you sign in with your Live ID, it adds a Hotmail tile to your start screen... just tap and hold on it, and unpin it. Done. Add your Google account and you'll get a Gmail tile.

In fact, when you add your Live ID, I believe you get an option to sync: mail, contacts, calendar, feeds... just leave mail unchecked.

Enjoy your new device!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyshade11:
Hello everyone, I just join here tonight after finding this site through google. I have been reading hours through the threads. Very interesting reading however I still could not find a solution for my problem.

I did a factory reset on my HD2 and now all that happens when I start the phone is a red, green, blue and white screen. It does not load to the windows mobile screen anymore.

On the red part of the screen it says:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-1.42.0000 XE

MicroP (LED) 0X05

MicroP (TOUCH) 0X40

The green and blue stripes have no text on them but the white stripe has "serial" on it.

I am confused why this had happened, any help to fix this problem will be much appreciated. Thank you.

- hold volume down and volume UP press in follow by a short press on the power button.

- you will see your 4color screen shortly and then a grey screen with blue text.

- Press volume up to restore your device.

Try this and let us know.

"Do you recall what your original rom was? If you plug your device into usb port on pc, does serial change to usb? If so, I suggest reinstalling your original rom."

Hi ClydeB1, I cannot remember exactly what the rom name was, I think it started 4... I read some threads and tried some methods such as downloading the HD2 rom from the hTc website via entering my S/N number. Then I put that on the SD card and updated it using 7-zip.. changing the file name to "leoimg...." after a minute of updating the phone reboot and said it had an error, it reboot again and completed the update. But still i am faced with the striped screens.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyshade11:
Hi, how do I get my stock rom? When I connect the usb cable to the phone it automatically shows this striped screen on the phone. The phone does not sync with the computer. I believe the phone was set to storage card when connected to the pc. But i cannot access the storage card via the phone. I access the storage card using a multi card reader.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClydeB1:
When you download from the HTC site, you'll get an exe file. You can try to run it from your pc, connect device to pc (still in bootloader screen ie striped screen) when serial changes to usb then run the exe file.

If that doesn't work then Right click and extract the exe file to your pc. Then take the RUU_signed.nbh file, rename that to LEOIMG.nbh and copy to root of sd card (formatted to FAT32). Then flash as you described.
