How do you play JAVA games on a Wizard?

I've got a XDA Mini S... downloaded and installed a Java game earlier today, World Series Of Poker from a Nokia website earlier. Installed and loaded fine but couldn't actually use the game as it would not select anything.
Touchscreen didn't work, the soft keys... joystick thingy... on board keyboard... on screen keyboard... NOTHING!!
How do you play Java games, or can you?

Help me please!! I've been trawling the site using the search function but can't seem to find a solution?

From what I have found, some games work because they are designed for our phones or are generic, and some are designed specifically for other phones, and thus, do not work on our Wizards. Generally, all you have to do to play a game is download the jar and jad files, go to the midlet manager and install, and then select. If it does not load from there, the game probably just will not work on the wizard. I have had the same problem for other java games.

most of the games i've seen work, however suck, because we do not have dial pads.

Well they install... and the load. Just can't play them, I'm presuming this is because we haven't got a numeric keypad?
Is there no way of playing Java Games whatsoever?

Java Games AEKMap
I've posted these somewhere before, but I couldn't find them so I'll post them again
These layouts are for a program called AEKMap (Google it).
They will allow you to play java games on the Wizard keyboard

and how do you install this wizard layout ??

Touch games

Hi guys
Any suggestions on games for my Touch? Given the processer speed etc what games will work and are safe?
Thanks a lot!

No one playing games on their Touch?

great game I play is maggot attack pinball, im trying to find a working version of celeris virtual pool mobile but doesnt seem to wok right, cant exit the game and cant enter the menu....also a good game is bejeweled2 but that doesnt work right either

I agree that there are some games that just dont seem to work right (struggling to exit etc). Is the Touch unable to hanlde games then? I have a demo verion of Call of Duty 2 on which appears ok but are we left with simple stuff like pacman and bubbles only?

I'm currently playing Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars by Astraware. It works great and is completely stylus based, so the lack of hardware buttons is not important. After that I will be playing Siberia 1 and 2 which should be about the same.

Call of Duty 2 runs well on my Touch clocked to 260 mhz....

on mine COD2 was really slow at 312 ;|

Age of empires works great

yes, AoE is really good.
and i play Flux, Anthelion 2 and simbsoft volleyball

emulators for htc touch diamond????

i bought an htc touch diamond today, and its an amazing phone!!!
i have alot of games and stuff for it....but i haven't been able to figure out how to put emulators on it?? like the pocketgba emulator, ps1 emulator, and the snes emulator.......anyway, if anyone knows how to put an emulator on the diamond (i have the p3700 model unlocked if it makes any difference), please tell me how, and give me the links!
and if anyone knows of any good 3d games, that aren't "demos" or trials" can ya tell me where to get 'em? cause i got some and they were crap....all racing games though.
and one more question....i downloaded .exe games (such as yabgbt and touchdown and the cod2 game)....and i can't figure out how to put some of the .exe files on...errors keep popping up when i try to run the .exe files on my PC to put them on my diamond saying that the file isn't a real microsoft executable or something.
i have gotten some exe's to run, but others.....no luck at all.
and i know that the cod2 ppc game isn't easy to install and theres something you have to do to specific dll files but i didnt get it.....sorry for being such a noob, and if there's another question on the forums like mine, please don't get pissed, i checked 20 pages of forums for an answer, and googled it but nothing came up
i'm clueless.... ....so can ya clue me in?
thanks in advance.

The first thing you need to do is think of a better user name....
second .... install the newest .net framework ... you need this to run a good chunk of games and programs you will find here ... it's a simple install, and it's about the easiest thing you can do to your phone
after you install that restart your phone and most of your emulators will work...if a windows mobile application or game is an EXE you downloaded from the internet...you need to install it via active sync...so if you haven't already install the CD that came with your phone on your computer, then plug in your phone while active sync is open and install the exe through active sync (the active sync help file can answer any more questions you might have on that)
and also I would download the latest Prince of Persia for windows mobile...runs AWESOME on the diamond, easily the best graphics on any game I've seen on WM

hey..
i'm fairly new on xda dev myself and i own a touch diamond too. i was wondering if there are any java games designed for the resolution of the htc td?????
cheers!

thanks!!
this helped alot!!
you're obviously experienced with this....so do you know of any tower defence games that are freeware?
i keep finding "asgard defence". i put it on my phone and its AMAZING but i dont have 10 bucks to spend on it right now. :\

resco bubbles
those are my favorites

By far.... Bubble Shooter (lol) its not 3d but its the most addicting and fun game on the diamond since teeter
pc version here so you can try it out(its a flash game so check it out reguardless): http://www.bubbleshooter.net/game1.php
cab is attached and ppc version is complete with some slick physics (its a demo so it'll pop up "register now" every now and then, just click okay and keep playing, it doesn't expire and you can play the complete game as many times as you want)

[Q] New HTC mega user trying to get java game working

Hi all,
I just bought a HTC touch T3330 recently due to my working environment and i have browse around the forum/website searching on how to get the java game to work on my phone.
I installed Esmertec Jbed 20080912.5.1 SD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486697) & (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655227) and tried running the game. The game loads fine but my touch screen is disabled thus i can't select anything.
How do i make my touch screen workable? Do i need to install other apps 1st before i install the java games?
I am totally new to WM phone and your great help is appreciated.
Thank you
Regards

looks like no one is able to help me =(

Well the games designed for touch phones are compatible. and again Touchscreen of your phone should be supported. Most games do not work on Touch2.

Thanks for your reply..i will try out the game recommended by u on your thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=678848) to see if it works. Just got to find the link to download the game. =)
Last resort is to pm you for the games
