The seems to be alot of people here that have devoted ALOT of time to making our Titans the products we always hoped our carriers promised. It is amazing to me that with all their massive infrastructures, engineers & support staff they just can't seem to keep pace with DCD, no2chem...the list goes on.
I am avid computer gaming and graphics enthusiast, home theater, XBOX hacker...building my own systems and am learning the ropes here on my Moguls (3 in the family). I have not gotten to the point of building my own custom ROM's for my specific needs..yet.
I just wanted to say thanks for spending the time making these units a better device for all of us. I can only imagine the hours it must take everyone involved. I love the fact that there are others out there still that say "F*** That!" when we are given crappy software by manufacturers and have the dedication to do what they seemingly cannot!
So Thanks!

Well then you have given me hope I can master this. On a side note, I hacked the old xbox along time ago with a Xenium ICE chip and now just received the Globe 360 v2 chip from Europe for the XBOX 360 to make that console more agreeable. Should be fun...
w00t xbox hacking!
im still waiting for some reliable solution for homebrew on the 360 though...
and thanks for the roms dcd, but youve got me reflashing my phone almost on a daily basis with the 2.x.x releases, lol
This is way off topic but I'll jump in. I used to hack the original Xbox to get XBMC, copy my games to HD to make them load faster, emulators, etc. I found the only real feature I used was XBMC and I was using it all the time. I personally don't play games all that much and when I do I like to play them online so ripping games wasn't something I did often.
Honestly, with the Fall 360 update I have zero reason to mod my 360. XBLA fills my classic game fix (I play Doom and Sonic ) and I can access all my media over UPnP.

i agree. my xboxes are just xbmc boxes. the 360 does everything i need, but ill probably pick up another one to hack, just for fun.
look me up on live sometime, same name
xbox GT: ScrufDeeOhGee
homebrew will nice for the 360. I have 3 XBMC boxes as well....
agreed, awesome ROMs. Gotta thank no2chem too...
Awesome Rom's DCD
First off, DCD your roms are amazing i wish i had the skill/talent/time to do the amazing work that your capabile of!
I too used to Mod xboxs (i was an x-ecuter guy myself), PS1's, PS2's and now my PDA!
Thank You DCD! I took am enjoying your custom rom update...GPS works great...just need to test the bluetooth now.
yea, thanks for all the help to dcd and everyone else. this is also off topic, but there is no way i would even buy an xbox 360 if i couldnt burn games, so bravo to everyone who hacks them, cause i did and 360 is better than ever
Hello, this is mt first post here because i'm going made about this decision:
I've Seen an Atrix and want to buy it..
But i Have 2 Devices, 1 Apple Ipod Touch 4 and a ZTE Racer (Very cheap cellphone with android 2.1, horrible touchscreen...) I Would Be Fine with Ipod touch if it id support SIM Cards so i could use a Cellphone internet Connection like 3G, but it doesnt, in other hand, my Phone does support it, but it has so many down sides, that im using him ONLY to make calls and to be the "mobile router" to allow my Ipod to use His internet... yeah its complicated, and i want to only use 1 Phone. Because i like to PLAY 3D Games, Like Modern Combat, Nova, Order & Chaos etc.. I was going to buy the atrix but i've seen reviews about a touchscreen bug that stops responding about 10~20 secs (i dont know if this was fixed in the latest update) and something about games not (yet) being compatible with him (like Order & Chaos). I Dont Really like Apple "not allowing almost nothing" and im a bit of power user/Hacker, so i do know about hardware, operating systems and all.. but staying with ipod seems to be more "safe" to be sure that it will run the games that will yet come.. please your opinion would be helpful about: How Much this phone will do until its trash?, the games will be ported or no chance? the finger prob will be fixed?
Im Looking into the future and i see android getting over apple quickly so i want to stick to the "best" thinking in the future soon.
Sorry if this is not the category
Many thanks
I would say Atrix is the best investment at the moment. It has a very attractive price for a dual core phone. It has an unlocked bootloader and vanilla android / CM7 on the way.
In terms of hardware Atrix is also very future proof. If I were you I'd get the Atrix.
p.s. I haven't noticed the touch screen bug though I played pretty much all of the tegra 2 games.
Welcome me to your darkside.
I followed this forum for a month now, but still like to have advice since i never used android before...have some questions as well...
I will probaly get a locked device, meaning no root...
Is it still possible to overclock to 1.8ghz this way?
Secondly, i love to play simple games on the go. Like angry birds, cut the rope ect...do they play well without glitches? Just simply install from market? It supports the resolution?
Secondly, what about other games?
And how well do you estimate i can play n64 games on a 1.2ghz and on a 1.8ghz? Will the dual core help or will it not be used because ive read somewhere gingerbread doesnt support dual core or something?
And nds emulator?
Are these still developed or "done" / "finished" ? Also curious about dreamcast...
And what about 3d development, are there 3d shells/launchers in development? And what about the 3d launcher of the optimus3d? Id love that on my evo3d...Is it already a WIP?
And lastly, do some roms already managed to fix some problems like the camera freezes, and have a better 3d photo viewer?(i dont wanna swipe 2d photos and then see the 3d effect kick in after 1 second)
And domt forgot some personal advice of apps, launchers, games ect. Im a eye candy loves, if it doesnt suck to much battery and performance. A bit is okay
Thanks
welcome to the evo 3d!
tl;dr the rest but i hope it works out for you
Welcome to the forums, and congratulations on your first android device, about the 3D pictures kicking in 3D after one second is normal, is because the screen have to get started, angry birds and cut the rope work fine and full screen on the phone without a problems, you won't need to overclocked for those they actually made for lower specs phone so they should work great, about the n64 emulator I think there on getjar or another market since google took them out of the regular market, and they work normal on the OG evo without overclocked so im guessing they will work fine on the evo 3d, besides that there is no way to overclock without root, root actually is not hard and you will get more eye candy the way, I just to have camera freezer for like 2 weeks, specially the second week that I went on vacation and i was taking a lot pics but i guess the phone got stable and i don't see them anymore, try to read a lot in general and q&a forums and you will learn alot about the evo and android as well, I hope this info helps
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
Thanks...but is the 3d effect kicking in really normal?
The o3d doesnt has this problem...?

As far as I know yes

well, with all the game devs porting games (gta3 for example, its a direct port of the pc version, you can stil use all the mods and cheats on it) i was wondering: how is it done, and can it be done for any game? well, there is one game which i would pay money for to have on my htc evo 3d: Star Wars: knights of the old republic. if anyone could port this or tell me how i could seriously give them money as i would lovelovelovelove this game on my evo 3d. any dev who could do it name a reasonable price, send me a video of you playing it at a normal speed, tell me how you did it, and ill pay you.

It's not a direct port.

Basically rebuilding the code to work with the Android system. Not easy, needs to be done from the ground up.
and can it be done for any game?

I'm sure it's possible for any game, but you have to think about processing power. GTA3 was a ps2 game, released in 2001, and it can BARELY run on most android devices now.

One, as stated above, that game will probably never run on an android device. And two, you are asking a LOT. It would take a team of people months, if not over a year to get it working.
Have you tried installing a bochs emulator and installing the game on the image lol :-D
Be nice to see doom the original.
Sent from the Reaper
Doom would probably be possible people already have it running on Playstation Portable if I remember correctly they even had Quake II working and I'd bet money the EVO 3d is more powerful than a PSP.
I had Doom running on my iPod Nano 1G with iPod Linux. Doom is possible and easy to port (from a developer's perspective) because it is open source and the game engine code is readily available. GTA III is closed-sourced. Rockstar did not port the game themselves; a different company did. Rockstar is the publisher and distributer.
Well, i could play the original KOTOR on a comp with much much much lower specs then my evo, and yes i tried bochs but it sucked. gta3 works swimmingly on my evo 3d, and its ported from the pc version not the ps2. thats why pc cheats work. so, as i said, any dev able could really earn some money.
Please stay on topic, i was talking about KOTOR not Doom.

I used to play the old Doom on my MOTO ROKR E6. The phone was great with only 312Mhz Intel PXA 270 processor and 4MB RAM and 8MB internal memory. It was also able to play NES,SNES,PSX,GBA etc on full speed. Duke Nukem, couter strike and old DOOM were ported to it more than 4 years ago. It was also able to run some windows versions using DosBOX. The phone was expandable upto 2GB but a kernel made it to support 32GB sdcards as well...........
The only reason for such compatibility that I can think of is that all those apps were designed to make use of the CPUs full potential.
@Arthurln3D
Try Critical strike from Android games section.....works great.
I highly doubt that the 3Ds processor and GPU are powerful enough to handle games like StarWars.
The Xperia Ray with a single core @ 1GHz play GTA 3 flawlessly, but the Gta 3 lags like hell if we run it on the 3D with both cores @ 500Mhz (Same game DATA was used in both phones)
IMO Evo 3D @ one core will lose to single core Xperias......

But porting a game to another device often requires emulation, which requires about 2-3 times the processing power as the original game did.
So again, just to be clear, unless you have say $50,000 or more to pay a team of workers, this isn't going to happen.

thats weird, my evo runs fine with gta 3. must be your evo. don't tell me that the evo runs gta bad, it runs it ine with me even at one [email protected], just tested. its definetly enough to run kotor. well, what do you have to do to port a game? how hard can it really be?

Well, show me a team and ill give them 50,000 dollars. no seriously, im sure that if i'd see someone capable i'd be able strike a deal. let me guess, all of you posting couldn't do it anyway. Well, does anyone know how whatever company rockstar paid to do it did it? even better, link me that company. do SOMETHING, don't just tell its impossible without naming reasonable reasons why.

I didn't say it was impossible, but it will be expensive just to create a game emulator for one person.

Your title said windows games lol.. I was only throwin that out there since the games you listed are old ones
Which GTA are you talkin about? The old old one or the newest one? I know it would take awhile to build and port it over if you start from scratch on the touch input and everything else graphic wise...
Hi all,
I came here to ask for advice as I never had HTC EVO 3D and also never had a CDMA phone ( i think sprint uses those)
Reason I want to buy this is so I can give it to my son to use it instead of iPod Touch. I see these phones go for about $100 and I think its a good deal.
Question:
1. Can I root this CDMA phone and put custom rom on it?
2. Is it any good for gaming ( does it have heat issues)?
Thank you all

It runs Pitfall pretty good (sometimes it crashes, maybe its the ROM I run). Plays Mass Effect: Infiltrator awesome. What I like to use if for is emulation. It plays N64 and Playstation great. ePSXe works particularly well. FPSE works good, but it always seems broken and has loopy sound. For the bones, I think it's a good deal. It works well enough for whatever I throw at it when I had issues I was cool when they finally got me a mostly working replacement LOL.

If it's strictly for gaming, you'll be disappointed with battery life.

Well I am hoping that if radio is off battery life should increase.
Then again I never had a cdma phone and have no clue can I turn radio off and use phone without service / just as gaming device (mini wi-fi tablet like)
Please guys pass info
Thanks

From dialer on any ROM: *#*#4636#*#*
Then go into phone information and select the turn off radio option
