Shadowgun now Adreno optimized. Works great on Flyer! - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

A nice third person cover shooter. First only works with NVIDIA Tegra Chipset. Now optimized for Adreno. Works very good and smooth on HTC Flyer. Here the Market Link:

Just downloaded it, mostly out of curiosity of how well the GPU on this thing would work.
I'll have to actually play through it this weekend and see how it is!

Gameloft games

Anyone know if gameloft games made for the Evo will work on the Evo 3D? I'd imagine they should, and should run better. Any thoughts? I'd hate to have to buy my games again.

I would imagine they would work on the EVO 3D. I have some game loft games (NOVA, NOVA 2, Splinter Cell, Hawx, and Shadow Guardian), that I was able to get running on the HTC Thunderbolt to see if they could work on the EVO 3D. NOVA 2 is still a little laggy but the rest should run well with the dual core.

No it doesn't I think he means in general a dual core phone will handle those games....
Even though nova 2 is optimized for tegra2..the " tegra2 optimized" games are working pretty well with other dual core phones I hear...

I have most of the new ones.. not modern combat 2 or that wave runner one but they ran great on my g2x... That was a tegra2 nividia chip set
But I'm almost 200% sure we will see some bad ass games come out for this device

Modern Combat 2 is pretty sweet, a lot like cod. It would be amazing if gameloft made a 3D version. I'm really hoping we get battlefield bad company 2.

Hopefully Rovio will release a 3D version of angry birds with perspective on the backdrops. Angry birds serves two purposes (1) to waste hours of your time and (2) for smartphone owners to argue about why their implementation of angry birds is best.
Im sure we will get games that are "optimized " for our phone. HTC did trademark HTC Play, and from what I understand, it will be a gamestore for HTC devices.

[Q] What phone should I take as successor

Hey Guys,
I really love my Legend but even compared to my Girlfriends Samsung Galaxy Ace it's really slow.
Now I'm thinking about getting a new Device.
I've got three options:
Take a used HTC Sensation for 250€
Buy a brand new HTC Evo 3D for 269€
Buy another device or wait...
What would you do?
I hope this isnt counted as crossposting, but I also asked it (but kinda different) in the HTC Sensation forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22246954
EDIT: I just forgot to add, I'm just a student and i don't have that much money...
You can see what's on the miui list for a start. Phone came out some time last year should be cheaper and more mods to play with.

Go for an aria or wildfire s if you still love HTC. If not then get the Samsung galaxy s. If none of those phones appeal to you can look second hand if your desperate.
Sent from my Legend using xda premium
I recommend you the Desire S if you like Sense, It will have ICS!!
the HTC One V - just being unveiled at mwc - looks like htc's successor for the legend (very similar formfactor)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yDMTPPA78U
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8N-v5s7qyY
ok the specs are a bit underwhelming. they seem to market it as low-end device:
+ 3,7' screen, very thin 9.4mm, better camera sensor
- lcd-screen, 1ghz cpu, 512mb ram/4gb internal storage with no micro-sd slot, no trackball, still no front facing camera

i would buy a defy+ - same size/format, awesome prize in germany, great phone
I've always liked the defy or the huawei phones as a second choice, if I ever had problems with cash flow and needed a new phone to cover for a while.
if your wanting a newer phone to tie you over, HTC One V seems a viable option and a similar option to your old Legend.
I was going to get one til I saw the specs. (I've always liked the chin design)
I suggest you go for the new one series. Good phones, and best part is that they come with ICS.
Thank you guys - but I already chose the sensation. The official ICS on it runs great! I can even use the Sense 4 Roms of the HTC One Serie. The only thing that doesn't work that nice is the official miui. Cyanogenmod only works with OpenSensation, but the official rom is good for daily use, unlike the legends stock rom...

Do you mean a benchmark?
Quadrant? Any other?
I'm currently on InsertCoin 5.2.1 with Bricked Kernel v0.7.
Although it's a Sensation it run's the Sensation XE's firmware. The Hardware of the Sensation and the Sensation XE are completly the same! Although the Sensation has a normal clock of 1,2GHz and the XE has 1,5GHz it's the same Processor (dualcore ofc), HTC just underclocks the normal Sensations CPU...

Need some advice in buying a tablet

As the header says I Need some advice in buying an Android tablet .
I was looking at the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Tab but need some advice since my all time favorite company is HTC so my first thing I looked at was the Evo tablet but not sure if its the better one.
Any help is much appreciated .

The Flyer and Evo View 4G are nice tablets. That being said they were way over priced from the jump. The newer tablets have much more to offer. I bought this one for $189 refurbed from Buy.com, totally worth it IMO.

What is it called? and were can i find a release date?
Last I heard it was to be called the Google Play. Notice they changed the name of the market recently. But everything is still a rumor thus far. The Asus Memo is supposed to drop in the next few months. The Google tablet is supposed to be similar, but scaled down a bit. Less memory,as it will use cloud storage etc are some of the rumors.

Graphically intense, hardware demanding games?

That happens to me with other apps sometimes, but usually when I try to get the app from a third party website it works just fine. Personally I think it has something to do with it being such a new phone and not having a lot of testing done on it yet.

I emailed them about mc3 and after giving them some info they emailed me a link that allowed me to download it. Runs great. U might have to do the same for now with gameloft games. I didn't have much luck with editing the build.prop.

I know they had mentioned a few times they wouldn't forget about 7" tablets. Very few of those are of such a high res. And they are developing a phone version. And they showed it running on a 7" tablet. Bottom line, IMHO we should be OK.

It would, it would just take some very minor APK changes i believe
So dont give up hope
Yeah the lack of launchers is probably the worst thing about being on honeycomb. Sense launcher/AOSP launcher, nearly identical aside from the fact that the AOSP one sports a sense-ish look and supports the sense widgets. Its not terrible, but the lack of folder support sucks, and there really isn't any real alternatives for honeycomb other than Go Launcher HD, but even then you loose your WYSIWYG widgets, and the launcher is still in early stages and imo kind of an ugly beast at this point. All the phone launchers work fine, but they don't support the honeycomb look. ADW EX is supposed to work pretty well for honeycomb but they hosed it with the last update...in December so I think Anderweb is gone.
So I do hope this launcher does pan out to give us another alternative.

I went back and re-read the info they provided. After commenting that their initial release was to be targeted at the 10" tablet they did say they planned to support 7" tablets. I thought I saved the paragraph to Pocket but I don't have it so I can't provide the exact quote.

I acquired an APK just now. Works on HC, will test on ICS soon.
I will drop a hint: GIYF
If you guys want a small review or anything if it's worth your money just ask.
$10? Jeez my interest just faded. No matter how cool it is its just a launcher. I have a hard time spending that kind of cash on anything for android! It's like that spb shell launcher. It looks gorgeous but it's $14. What if I don't like it? Then I got 15 minutes to get a refund.
Maybe they should give you a week trial with this stuff. The money might be worth it but you just don't know. It's still in beta so hopefully they have a trial when it launches
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I honestly wouldn't call it a beta. It's more of an alpha as you can't add your own widgets or have your on wallpaper.
