What is the best.

Dear all
I am a noob XDA2 owner. I have tom tom installed and would like your opinions on the coolest software to add. Id like to watch DVDs and love playing games and usual pc stuuff.
Any sugestions welcome. 8)

pockettv and
and pocketMVP are the best movie viewers imho
about games then you are a bit too unspc i mean most people like playing games some pref chess some pref quake ....

Coolest App
On top of what has already been said...
After spending weeks on this forum and on Handango this is my hit parade:
DVD:
mMedia: to convert DVDs or any other videos in almost any format. (I haven't tryed yet as I am waiting to buy a large memory card, but from the specs seem the most complete programs while other limits you in term of input or output format)
Games:
Monopoly is gorgeous
Other interesting games are Chopper Alley, TombRider, when anyone finds a decent first person shooter please let me know
There is a C64 Emulator which should enable you to play old commodore 64 games (they where good) unfortunatly I didn't manage to get the app to work on my XDAII, but I haven't tried too hard... it should be possible
Usefull SW:
Ringtonez: to get personalized ringtones by caller
A profile manager: to change the phone settings according to your envirronment and much more... I am still trying to understand which one to choose between PocketZen and Phone Profiles... I have dedicated a post to it but with few responses... help anyone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=10168&highlight=
MS Reader: English or foreign language to english dictionaries
HP Mobile Printing
iMove Messanger: Universal Messanger
PocketLingo: if u need a specialized dictionary
ConverterCE (usefull and free)
Must have utilities (they are not cool, but they would make a difference):
-BT Tools: when you face yourself with the limits of the units BT app.
-SpriteBackup: must have back up utility... your device would hardreset, no matter how carefull you are, and even if your contact might be sync a lot of other info and settings are not, so u want to back up and xBackUp is just too slow to be used)
-PocketNav: Close bottons function that really closes apps (free or cheap; does just that and does it well)
-ScaryBear (fix a PPC2003 bug that slows your XDA after every reset, free)
-Wakeup Tweak: fix another bug with PPC2003
Have fun!

well there is doom 1&2 and quake 1 and 2 wolfenstien3d and the second version forget the name spear of destiny or something
and then there is heretic (really got a kick out of that back in the day in MP where you could hex your opponent into a chicken) and hexen (heretic2)
then there are some Fps rpg's around
suppose since counterstrike is based on ½life which is based on quake2 engien it could be portet and i have played it on my laptop in 320_240
it could be possbile to port it and even play online using wifi or gprs
Bf1942 or unreal though i dont think we'll se ports of untill they release windows CE 5 with a directx mobile and mobile mmx

Hi Guys
Just joined this forum and am the proud owner of a Touch Diamond, but as I'm pretty new to this, I wonder if you guy's would help me out. There are thousands of themes, app etc. but for a new user like me, can someone hook me up with the ten most popular apps etc. for my phone?
Thanks Again

Klaxon is a great Alarm app with htc like skin. Supports multiple alarms with snooze. It's also sensor enabled for both light and motion
I use it every day
Windows Commander pocket version, also free. It's a powerful file browser. This is needed if you intend to mess around with files in the windows dir of your phone.
Diamond Tweak and Diamon TF3D Config, two easy to use tweak apps to change hidden settings like better touch screen sensitivity and other useful tweaks.
Pocket UFO. Game, UFO Enemy unknown for your phone An old classic strategy game.

Thanks man

How do i install .cab files?
sorry, I really do need to be spoon fed!

Just open them on your Diamon instead of your pc

Hi [email protected]. Try some of these programs/games. Also the Scummvm Emulator has been a big hit for me lately.
Progs:
Advanced Config v. 3.2 - get it @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151
BaseHueExpress - change theme color. you cannot use the original black one. go to settings --> Today to change to anyone other than Htc black to make this program work.
Battery Icon - A battery replacement program. Actually I used another one then this one but this is really nice http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...hlight=battery (thx FInixNOver - found it after you typed to me on this thread. Looks a little bit nicer then the on i used before.
Conduits Pocket Player v3.6 - MP3 player - The best I think. It can take winamp 2 skins and that is so cool. Mail me to get original winamp 2 skin on [email protected]
CorePlayer v1.2.5 Build 4506 - This video player works full with diamond - AVI in full screen. I don't use this player for mp3 - pocket player is much better for that.
DinarSoft MemMaid v2.3 - Clean your Diamond
ESET Nod32 mobile Antivirus - Good prog but it will bug your volume control. you can only use the volume control with touch and not with buttons. (but you can live with that)
Flash Player 7 - Sadly it cannot work with Opera for Diamond since Opera doesn't support flash (yet anyway) thats why I'm waiting for Skyfire (www.skyfire.com) - it will support not only Flash 6 and 7 but also 8. and full support for java too. Thats nice.!
iFonz - I Phone lookalike program. Work okay with Diamond but maybe there is someone better out there. But it works - also with VGA (you have to make icon size bigger in options.)
iGO8 + Europe works fine with Diamond and connects pretty fast with "Fast GPS"
Lextionary English Dictionary v2.0 - Good Dictionary
Media Connect - Works but not that many channels though.
MS Voice Commander - you need patch to make it work with diamond - can also be found on xda-developers diamond section
NET Framework 3.5 - Important to have to play most (some) games and programs.
Novii Remote (MY BAD - Novii Remote DOESN'T WORK with HTC Diamond - i misplaced the program (used it for my previous phone - but ofcause you need a phone with infrared) AGAIN MY BAD..!
Opera v9.5 Build 1938 Upgrade - Works good. You can also watch youtube videos with this directly in opera via youtube.com and with Flash Player 7 Installed. But its laggs a bit.
Pencil Box Deluxe v3.6 - Good drawing program i cannot say its the best but its one of them. (but u cannot use that many tools - but still really good)
Pocket Live TV - works but pretty expensive.
Pocket Winrar I Know the diamond has a zip program preinstalled on official rom but this program can also open .RAR files. I have it installed but don't think I've ever opened a .RAR file on my phone
PPCLink Hicalc v2.5 Award Winning advanced calculator - http://classic.pocketgear.com/softwa...l.asp?id=20468 - Nice one
Proximis NetRemote Suite v2.0.4.127
PSShutXP Ofcause the VGA version with a Diamond skin
QWERTY æøå keys (Danish keyboard)
Resco Explorer 2008 v7.02 - with Regedit
GSen Screen Rotater
SPB Calc manilla Diamond skin
SPB GPRS Monitor 2.4.1 - Nice program to monitor GPRS. you can see how much cash you have spend and so on.
SUS2 - Phone Lock - Works but i have disabled the slide-to-answer function because it was a little slow. But its okay
TomTom 7 + Scandinavian Maps - Also a pretty good and and fast gps.
WinMobile Torrent v2.1.0.6 Best (Only?) one out there. It works fine and connects to a torrent pretty fast.
Games:
Argentum - Really funny game. One of the best I've got.
Astraware Bubble Babble - Word game.
Astraware Rocket Mania Control a Rocket via touch screen.
Astraware Zuma Also one of the best games.
Call of Duty 2 Works good in VGA and its controllable.
Concrete PBA Bowling v1.0 Fun touch screen game.
Drum Kit Ace Have Drums in your pocket. works but since the Diamond don't have MultiTouch you cannot use it that good. But you can work around it and it still pretty funny.
Expresso Run Game v1.0 - Good game.
Gamebox Classics 5.0 - Funny - Snake and other game ind a gamepack
GameZoneProject Towers Trap - Fun Defender game.
Gangsta Race - Car game for touch screen
Insaniquarium - The old PC version of Insaniquarium. You have to have this
Motocross Stunt Race - Not that good. But still...
Palm Heroes - Like the old pc version on pocket pc touch.
Pool Challenge
PPC Chess
Resco Brain Games[/b]
FPSEce0.09.6_beta - PSX emulator - Have tried it with Abe's Oddysee + Final fantasy + GTA 2. And all the games works fine. But it irritates me that the VGA option doesn't work in full screen. But its looks good with a non VGA option too.
Rocket Elite
SimCity 2000
SmartGear v1.0.4 Emulator Ofcause with Super Mario 1, 2, 3 and world. Sonic Series, Earth Worm Jim and other classic Sega, Nintendo, SNES, TG16 games
Snails Worms lookalike but this is only for touch. I like worms better. But still good.
The amazing world game - Like The Incredible Machine. Funny.
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 (NOT FULL SCREEN - but works)
Traffic Jam
Transport Tycoon Deluxe - Little hard to control but playable
Worms World Party (you need the config file for the game to combine controls - search xda-developers diamond section to find it)
Warcraft 2
Assaultaire Tank game. Fun Fun.
Atomic Battle Dragons
Azgard Defence
Lemonade Tycoon 1.0.2
Machines at war
Meltdown Also really funny. You only need to push one button to control the game - But later on it still gets pretty hard.
Myst v2.11
(PS you can get the game by searching for their names on google - most of them are not free)
Accelerometer Games:
Caver
G-Flow
G-Invaders
Lightsaber
Lunar Tilt
SensorMaze
YABGBT
Waterlevel
Diamond Cubes
Diamond Beer2
+ others
Waiting for:
Skyfire!
Tomb Raider on Diamond
More skins
These are programs i've used for my htc diamond and they are working fine. Some of the programs are free and some not. But i can recommend all of them. of cause worms need a config file that you can find on this website (search for it).
TESTED WITH
Official Rom
1.93.403.2

I would definitely suggest Thumbcal, a finger friendly calendar that is a lot better than the windows one

Hi again
Thanks for the stuff above
I'm havin trouble installing stuff....
I downloaded an alarm clock app, unzipped it and copied the folder to my Diamond (file/program files), but when i ope the folder on my phone the set up file is an opera link? but nothin comes up
please help!

...I STILL CAnt do it!

when i unzip the files, the set-up file is .xml not .cab

SPB Mobile Shell and Pocket Mechanic...works fine for me...
cheers

problem solved!
thanks

The .cab files show up as a winRAR archive unless you change it (in winRAR). So you have unzipped the .cab file. It should just be copied to and run from the file explorer on the diamond.

(Req) i NEed all this nokia music application on my Diamond Can ne 1???

http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/download-application

Awaiting for the Reply!!!

NO. That app is for Symbian OS. Our Diamonds use Windows Mobile. Totally different.

WP7 on HD2 GOOD<--->BAD

Hello dear Xdas...
I use my HD2 now since November 2010. I just used the Artemis ROM(Thanks for this great ROM!!!), as i was afraid to brick my phone during flashing.
However I installed WP7 (16.05.11 HD2O) yesterday and want to offer some Experience i gathered. Overall i am satisfied at all but some Key features are missing.
PRO
Fast
Energy saving
Good handling in the menu
great appearance
the keyboard is great, i never experienced such a good writin on the HD2 (tried los of keyboards incl. Swype)
So at all its ok.
BUT!!
I usualy used my HD2 as carPC. Through i have an CU-S400 car holder + an car stereo with freetalk and A2DP Profile.
So i miss:
Easy music transfer (Zune iss like iTunes and i hate iTunes!!)
Music player with Visualization and online Streams ( Pocket Player 4 was great!)
A navigationsoftware which dont uses the Web, i want the maps on my SD!
Voicedial doesnt work
No palringo or other multi-protocoll chatclient (I think that will be solved soon )
And Gpc is not available at the moment( I hope xtreme Apps is developing a WP7 version)
Also the missing Outlook syncronization and missing USB stick function su**s a lot.
I think this is not to much, i expect from a mobile. However WM6.5 did all the jobs very well.
Maybe someone has some hints for me to get me more satisfied with WP7.. Or maybe a possibility to make a Dual Boot WP7 and WM6.5 (Plz keep that android crap away from me )
Regards screamor
Btw. Wanna Thank DFT, Cotulla, HD2O and sternas...

@ screamor
For filetransfer like music,ringtones etc. search for touchxperience. It´s a very good app & very easy to handle.

I check this site every day in the hope that someone has got WM running off the SD card, it would complete the device.
I think you need to remember though that WP7 is the best smartphone out there, it isnt however a pocketPC and i think that is what people are compare it too, which is a shame because its not ment to be a pocketpc
i wouldnt go as far as saying android is crap but i would say its boring, its like it has an identity crysis, it doesnt really know what it wants to be, pocketpc or smartphone? and it does neither very well in my opinion
there is a few things missing from WP and personally i think if they created some kind of sandboxed WM environment it would help slove most of these issues but thats just me
