Qvga Games on Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi, i have a question...
I want to start a qvga application on my diamond, but it is only 1/4 of the screen. When i change to landscape mode it is fullscreen. But today i tried asphalt 4 elite racing and it is not possible to get it fullscreen with the landscape trick. so is there any other way to make it fullscreen?
thanks for your help and sry for my bad english

i don't know if it will help, but try to search for an app called forcehires and try from there..

i already tried it. it doesnt work..
"selected file is hi-resolution application. select low-resolution application"
dont know what to do

So, has anyone figured out any solutions to this issue with VGA devices running QVGA games?

supposedly this:

Guitar Hero 3 Mobile HTC Diamond

Hi there, wonder if any 1 can help me here.
I've just purchased guitar hero 3 with an activation code for my Diamond. I started the installer and chose the htc diamond from the list of devices and it installed no problem. I started it up on the diamond entered my activation code and it just when back to the home screen. It wont start when i click the GH3 icon it just flashes black and goes to the home screen. I've tried soft reset and that did nothing.
Any Ideas?
GH3 dont work with the diamond. The problem is also with the demo version of the game.
So why does the installer have it in its list?
I have no idea, maybe it works on old roms. But i never heard that anyone got it working.
There is another thread here with the same discussion. Search for it, maybe someone got a solution for the problem.
Has anyone gotten this to work on the Diamond yet?
nope it's still not working, i enter my key to active product (i can get to that screen) but after i've entered the key it restarts and then just always quits to desktop, very lame as it would be an awesome game
I got the same issue
i wish i read the thread before purchasing the game..and trying the impossible to get it to work..
thats pretty wack !
Claim the game and get yourself a refund.
It doesn't work on this or the Raphael, even the new v1.10 version. From what i read on another forum, there are compatibility issues with VGA devices.
is there any possibility to put this work ona htc diamond?? any way??

There is a program to switch your resolution from vga to wvga... maybe it works when you change your resolution.
You can get the program for example here:
http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2008/12...ution-standardwide-and-square-resolution.html
pls tell me if it works...
So no ones tried this yet even tho you bought the game? Cmon we need an update I'll buy the game in a heartbeat if I can get it working, hey someone mentioned a demo, anyone have a link I'll try it and post it.

So I tried this but the only option was 640x480 to 480x480 and that mode didn't work, if there was a way to get 320x240 I bet it would work.

[REQ] Helicopter (iCopter) for touch diamond/VGA

I think that everyone here knows the game on the iphone, computer and qvga winmo where you have to fly a helicopter trough a cave by tapping on the screen. Unfortunately there is no such game for VGA windows mobile phones, like the diamond. I hope that a developer is willing to make this simple game for the diamond, It'll make me (and others) very happy .
The qvga version (which simply doesn't start up on the diamond) is found here: http://gamezone.floftgames.com/game/helicopter .
The game is kinda like caver for the touch diamond, over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410178 , maybe that'll help.
theres a game called caver ! i think the helicopter is replaced by a ball! hope thats close enough for you ! search for it

Thanks for the reply but caver is controlled by the G-Sensor and helicopter is controlled by taps on the screen or on a button. You can watch the clip below to see what i mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1XA4j8Ecak#t=35s . As you can see, if you tap the screen the helicopter goes up and when you release the helicopter goes down. You can play it on your computer over here : http://www.addictinggames.com/helicopter.html .

X1 Game Emulation Thread

Hi there,
i got my X1 today and am still playing around with it...tried some of the Emulators like PocketNester and PocketSNES.
I can run some games in them, but the main issue is that the screen is really really small. It takes up roughly 1/8 of the screen so i guess thats QVGA resolution or something.
Also landscape mode doesnt really work. PocketNester doesnt react to changes of "Display" at all and always remains in portrait mode. SmartSNES does landscape mode, but its in the wrong direction meaning that to have the picture right you have to hold the X1 with the keyboard on top
PocketSNES doesnt load any roms and quits with an error.
The biggest Issue with PocketNester and SmartSNES is the really small screen which makes it unplayable. When i touch the screen to pause a game the screen is suddenly bigger and in the right direction, which would be playable, but when i unpause the game its all wrong and small again.
I still have got to try the GBA and NeoGeo (Finalburn) emulatos, but i dont have high hopes on these too...
Anyone any positive experience ?
All I know is I've been waiting/searching for a good emulator that does landscape and allows you to map keyboard buttons since the first TyTN came out
Here we go ...
Hey !
I attached the best (and working!) emulators I found over the years.
All of them work with VGA, in landscape (for some use WVGA fix2) + you can map the buttons to your keyboard too.
Some of them require to install an run WVGA FIX2 first.
This little Program "cuts" the pixels bigger than VGA from your device.
Dont get scared.. This only happens as long as you run the program.
Those pixels get black and the program emulates a VGA screen.
So most programms (not only emulators) will work fine on our nice WVGA screen.
Cheers !

Best PocketSNES version.

Mm, yeah nice collection you got going there. That SNES emu doesn't work though.
Tried quite a few versions and this one is the only one that seems to work on the X1:

when using WVGA Fix with that, the screen is upside down...atleast with PocketSNES...
anyone tried any of those on the X1 yet ?
The performance with some enabled also is horrid.

This is a collection especially for the X1.
ALL of my posted emulators ARE working on the X1.
For some use WVGA FIX2 first !
I use all of them on my X1.
-> Screen upside down ? Try going to options in the emulator and switch it ;-)
Btw: The QWERTZ Pocket SNES Emulator is faster but the TOUCH Pocket SNES Emulator comes with touchbuttons (on the screen) embedded. Now you know why the different versions in the zip have tose funny names ;-)
Greets !

That is the same version I attached as -QWERTZPocketSnes- in the PocketSnes.zip --> V1.53
Well then we both agree that it's the best!
that version of PocketSNES is acutally working good, but i cant map the keyboard with that one. Would be better as to use on screen buttons imho, but on the other hand i had problems assigning keys in another version of PocketSNES because some keys seem to have the same Hardware Code...really weird, but i cant map all the keys in the arrow-keys area to different actions which would be ideal for gaming :/
With the onscreen version i cant move my character forward/backward using that touch navigation button..can you ?

HD rarely uses landscape mode

Folks,
I only got my baby yesterday, but is anyone else finding this?
For me, the device will only switch to landscape mode for Opera, Photos & Videos, and Teeter. Not in TouchFlow 3D Home or any of its tabs, Mobile Office apps, TomTom 7, ...anything!
I've tried turning off Touchflow 3D and rebooting with no effect and with the G-Sensor there is no manual setting to force landscape.
This makes the keyboard in TomTom tiny and means that the screen isn't that much more usable for Office apps than my venerable old 2.8" TyTn.
Please could someone tell me if it's just my phone that's afflicted or is it a "feature"?
Thanks!

no thats totally normal. and known since the first infos of the HD came out.
If you really want full landscape switching, get Gyrator2 or Gsen. both can be found on this forum
It doesn't help you, JTHM, but I hardly ever use landscape mode in my Touch (Elf) so perhaps the way the Touch HD works is by design for people like me. The only time landscape mode offers any advantage to me is for photos, videos and web browsing. With the mini USB connector at the bottom, my Touch is always in its cradle in portrait orientation and it sits in the car more easily this way too.
I'm surprised there's no manually-activated landscape option in the software though.
(Sorry that this post doesn't really help you but perhaps it illustrates that for some (maybe most?) users the lack of landscape isn't a problem at all and may therefore be by design.)
Hang on, can I clarify.
I like to use my xda2i in landscape with my bluetooth travel keyboard sometimes. Does this mean that i can't just rotate the screen to landscape and use it in landscape mode with my keyboard??

I think that raziel1 has already answered that question? Use Gyrator2 or Gsen both of which can be found in this forum.
It does seem to be missing a trick by not have some software button built in to switch the screen though.
I had one flaw with the HD: The typing. I wanted (like Iphone) to use the keyboard in landscape so i had more room for my fingers. But the HD doesn't do that standard.
I installed Gyrator 2 and set it to switch to landscape when i use my keyboard. In every application, now when I use my keyboard and tilt the device, the screen rotates.
It made my HD even better.
Which is better? Gsen or Gyrator? I know they have other features but I only want an app to rotate landscape and uses minimal memory as I guess it needs to be running on start up.
ok, gyrator is a PROGRAM. I thought it was another handset or something. oh as long as there is soemthing you can do te get the landscape working that's sweet for me. I'm really close to buying one of these beasts!
I'm surprised that TomTom doesn't rotate automatically.
I've sure I've seen screen shots of it in Landscape mode and wouldn't have thought those web site's had installed any other third-party screen orientation software.
Beards.
You can also purchase Resco keyboard. It has large keys that you can use with your fingers. Well that depends how big your fingers are. Best to download a copy of the program, install it and test it out.
And since the screen is 3.8, it should give you plenty of space on top to see your message?

I'd like to see a full landscape keyboard, but can't find any pics/vids if u could try, and post it I'd be most appreciative.
best regards
you can use gsen

yeah, after another reboot it's working now. tried it in a couple apps and seems fine so far... funny thing is with the streaming video app, when you go to fullscreen it auto rotates the screen, but as soon as you move the hd to landscape position gyrator rotates it again... will need to check out the docs on how to add exceptions.

Game resolution problem

Hello,
i have problem with games displaying on the screen.
When i was using original ROM and radio, all games programmed for HTC HD were working perfectly- fullscreen.
Since i installed new ROM and new radio, any of games working properly. even them HD games. I see them in very small window in the corner of the display.I tried to install many of new ROMs and different radios, but its still same. DOes anybody have same problem?
I tried to find thread about this on this forum but i dint find any. If there is one,iam sorry for starting new.
Nobody knows the solution?
iam sending the screen how the games look like.. even if they are made in resolution for HD they all show in window like this. Before i unlocked the phone it worked fine. SOrry for low quality of picture.
picture is here: bolekdobos.net/Picture0003.jpg
just add www before link. system dont allow me to post whole link
Since your device is WVGA. I suggest your search for WVGA fix,RealVGA and any others resolution changer.
If you know about programming language,you may use WinceCabManager to edit cab file and change the code inside....
Hope it helped you.
