I'm planning to buy a MDA Compact from T-Mobile here in Austria.
Gaming is important to me - so how is the gaming performance on this device? I've heard, that it's quite bad, because you have less programmeable Hardwarebuttons.
In general, is Magician suitable for Multimedia???
Due to button placement, it's hard to play games with the mini(compact). It feels cramped when I play games that need buttons (i.e. morphgear). but for stylus games, its fine.
Music and Movies though are great and I enjoy listening to MP3s with Mortplayer using my Senhheiser MX550 earphones with a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter.
I play SkyForce ( Beautiful Graphics ) with Stylus on Mini.
I think it's very well suited for gaming. Usually all games give you the opportunity to select which buttons to use for what operation. I'm playing Tomb Raider, Flux Challenge, Worms, Sky Force, Kevtris and others with no problems. The graphics power also is sufficient. The only real disadvantage it has is, that you can't press two buttons at the same time. That's a real disadvantage for almost all games! Many PDAs (not all) have this problem though.
Button Pressing
Actually, on the imate jam, I found that I can press multiple buttons at the same time. I noticed that I can move using directional pad while firing at the same time. Also, I it seems like the BT gamepad was made for the Jam as it works perfectly!
Ok, maybe you can use one of the buttons while using the DPad but you can't use two directions of the DPad at the same time e.g you can't move up and right at the same time - very annoying for action games.
I didn't think about that. Most of my old school games work great. I would suggest you get the BT pad when the price goes down. You will not regret it!
For stylus+button game no problem such as skyforce, atomic cannon and my favourite age of empire.

Can you tell me how to change the controls on the mda compact when playing tomb raider. I can't work out how to save a game as the MDA has insufficient buttons. Many thanks.

Gaming is great on the Jam!
I play loads (and i mean, loads of games) including Tombraider, Worms World Party, Age Of Empires, Solitaire , Warfare Inf, Rayman Ultimate, Mini Jetfight and some other games.
All are very easy to play IMO. Most games don't require more then the DPAD and Calender/Contacts buttons. Most games use stylus control.
The best device to run games is on Magician compared to xda I, II and IIs or IIi.
There is, or can be created a car game where you have to drive the car by using the accelerometer ? It would be nice
I don't think at an accelerometer car game, but at a sort of app who map Gsensor's movements as Hardware keys
So it can be used with fpsece, morphgear, and all other "possible" games.
can someone do something ?
i've played that game on iphone,totally dependent on the g sensor,couldn't find it though,good luck.
im a new owner of diamond 2 but i cant play games without d pad
i didnt think about that before i bought the phone...
of course games is not the main issue that i bought the phone
but what do you do ?
thanks
Most games for Topaz either use on screen buttons or the GSensor to control.
why dont you get a bluetooth keyboard? i've tried playing games with that and it works fine
When I start any game of EA, by example Real Racing 3 on my Galaxy S5 Neo, the in-game music and effects are glitching like there's an echo.
I already did a factory reset but that didn't help. It seems like it's more a hardware problem on only EA apps or games. Does somebody have the same problem as me? Is there maybe a solution for this?
So much users have this issue .. model Sm-g970f/ds exynos 9820. Pubg unplay able even after may update frames drop so laggy. The normal solutions not work it's just reduce the lag. Like change resolution from dispaly setting or dolby sound off
