Hey guys,
Just reposting this as a start of the themes and apps for X1 .
Now who was it that insisted that Xperia lacked a 3D chip? Thanks to itje for basing his latest Custom ROM on the leaked R3AA ROM and seperately providing CABs to some of the goodies available in the new ROM version, you can get your hands on ‘Xtrakt’ - a new 3D game by Sony Ericsson – right now! The game has really great graphics and runs quite smoothly on the device. Though it warns not to run any other applications when playing the game, it ran just fine with SPB Screenshot running besides it.
Best controlled with a stylus, you control the main character of the game on a future motorcycle destroying monsters. Doesn’t sound too appealing, i know, but the game is actually good! Better than many games that i’ve played on my iPhone and opens the door to better gaming on Windows Mobile. (True that an accelerometer would have been quite handy in handling the bike, but stylus/finger control of the bike sits well with the game).
To download head on here. You do not need to flash to the custom ROM to play this game. However, there definitely might be better graphics drivers in the R3AA ROM than the R2 or R1 ROMs.

One visit to the toilet and I already made it to level 4! I was really surprised with how good it looks and runs!!! (the game, that is.... ;-)
^^ LOL!
Great game
This is the kind of stuff I xpect from Sony Ericsson
Could it be run with the stock X1 ROM? I don't want to flash any ROMs at all (I bought X1 for my fem and she's really short tempered)
should run...but maybe not that fast...

If you were talking about the oreginal ROM.
yes it works just smooth
when i try to install the cab,
it sayd that the insallation was unsuccessful.
something i need?

No need to double post it! (I know you probally just hit the submit reply button 2x on accident ).
Stock rom should run just as good as a custom one. It uses hardware acceleration with OpenGL drivers that are already on the phone so.
same problem here, says installation unsuccessful straight away. bah.
Works great here, I'm using Generic_SE R2A rom.
Thanks!

Install to phone, not to storage card
i did........
doesn't even let me get as far as to ask. i've tried installing it *from* both storage card and main memory, but it instantly says unsuccessful.
might be due to VF hackery.
ah well, i'll just wait til it actually get released.
Wow.. It's awesome.. Hard to find WVGA game.
Not working here either - no real hacking done (vodafone rom though)
just says the install is unsuccessful
I hae the same problem ....INstall unseccessful
Why is this? Anybody found out yet?
thats cause it's supposed to work perfectly.
Im using the Vodafone Dutch R2A ROM. Love the game and it runs super smooth
Working now. I think perhaps that I didn't have enough room in my memory so it failed. Excellent graphics and game play, 10 levels! Very impressive to show people, certainly throws a punch against the iPhone!

After reading yor comments on the ongoing ROM poll, elsewhere on the Forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325872
I have to ask what is in store in your new ROM 02 Premier Plus?? Is there a time scale for its' release yet?
I have tried all the ROMS that come and go on these boards and am still very pleased with Artemis Touch 1.0 WWE - Full, I think it is the most stable ROM so far...
Can you spill the beans on your plans...
It will be released over the weekend - final testing now.
Includes updated audiomanager (same skin) but now plays when in standby mode.
Most of the apps are included from artemis touch full including hbutton setup, notem,1 calc lite, tpcmp, xnview pcm keyboard....
The ability to add cube by cab if required (blue design)
Still has 51mb total storage memory and 27mb free program memory after soft reset.
It runs as well as standard version
thx
i am waitting
What a guy, that's what you call a prompt reply.
Looking forward to giving it a spin.

It will be ROM without the cube in default ? And cube will be only separately installable option (cab) ?
From my point of view, it is very good idea !! Cube is nice toy, it is good to amaze friends, but I guess that most of people dont use it. I dont need any cube when I have HTC home ...
I'm looking forward to your new ROM
Hi Meschle
I eagerly await this new rom as your original is my keeper at the moment. A question, you say you are including the CM Keyboard but is the HTC Phonepad staying? For me this is far better for texting and was something I had been wanting scince getting this phone but just couldnt find an app anywhere until I tried your rom (my first), CMKeyboard is very good but still needs some care when using on the move. If not remaining perhaps you can let me know where to get.
Be good to see the new rom, just dont give up life to meet your publics demands
Thanks for your work so far

Heres the htc touch phone pad.
Also i would like to see this rom without touchflo as i read some people including me can't get it to work properly.
other than that this first version rocks big style. i prefered the mms/sms all in one also (i know some dont agree with me but hey, personal prefs)
Last few days - being bed ridden - had all the opportunity to install, re-install and re-re-reinstall all the roms circulating...I finally settled on the O2 Premium ROM - not because - I am not a fan of Tom's - His ROM was fantastic - the Artemis too was superb ! but my preferences lies in the fact that - if I dont use something - no point having on the phone.
My 2 cents on new ROM;s that come up -
The Lite version along with the reduced apps - should also exclude the Cube ! - I have been using the Toms 4.0 for ages and realized that I had next to never used the Cube. The HTC Home page suffices more than ever on that is required instantly.
Secondly - Apps like Acrobat Reader LE - should also be left out - to be installed based on individual preferences - it is 1.38MB in size and can be run from the storage card - so I see no reason to have it on the main memory !
All said and done - I think the ROM's provided by Mark and Tom are great and I applaud their efforts.
The Orbit/Artemis/Dopod - would'nt be the same without their efforts and the support of all their collegues.
Cheers
Dev

Man, I've been playing around with this ROM now and it's my new favourite !!! Really finger-friendly and intelligent !!! Congrats, mate !!!!!

You're O2 ROM is my favorite and it's staying on my phone. I would like the audio manager to play in sleep mode, but I just spent 2 days configuring my phone to my liking. Is there a registry edit to make the audio player play in suspend mode or is this somthing that requires the new ROM? If not, I'll live with WMP for now. Excellent ROM man!

Hi Meschle
Nice one
I downloaded and flashed last night so will play today.
But on 1st impressions it looks just as cool as original but now has all the apps from the Touch, exactly what it said on the tin!
And it has the HTC Phonepad, I happy
I shall post tonight on how she goes.
Thank you
Is the bug about the batterystatus traylaunch fixed in this new version ?
Anyway, keep the excellent work, thank you so much for your quality releases !
Just wanted to let you guys know that the nice Experiment13 game delivered with the Xperia X2 runs fine on our HD and can be downloaded here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4979886&postcount=182), thanks to Ganondolf!
The only thing not working is the g-sensor support - but it's not necessary for the game to be played...
Just been playing it! At last! A decent Blackstone game!With the exception of the glitchy Extract and Need for Speed, the only games I ever found had the graphical awesomeness of Minesweeper 95.
Yeeha! Thanks Sony
I HATE rapidshare!!!
I would love to try this game out, and a couple of ROMs for that matter, but bloody Rapidshare tells me "This file can only be downloaded by becoming a Premium member"!!
God I hate them - I have been trying at different times of the day all week to get a download slot for various different ROMs, but to no avail.
Can anyone who has managed to get it either email it to me or post to a decent server, and turn my in to a

I think this is better than Xtrakt. This is best Blackstone game so far
Game is amazing. There are missing such games: forcing to thinking a bit but still with up-to-date gfx.
Do you get vibrations and G-sensor working with this game? There are settings but doesn't work for me.

I'm pretty sure it's a driver related issue... The game comes from a completely different device from a different manufacturer. The g-sensor in the Xperia is probably in no way related to the ones we have in our HDs and is driven by a totally different driver. And since we don't have that driver on our devices, the game can't access the g-sensor data. But I have no clue how this could be fixed... I guess some genius would have to write a "fake" driver that translates the HD's g-sensor data to the interface the game wants... (I hope this makes sense... As said, I'm no expert and this is just the way I interpret the problem)
Excellent game - thank you.
Great work MAMeingast.
Working purfect on my HD.
Just a shame that the g-sensor dont work but still very playable.
I wonder why games like these are made for other devices & not the HD.
Also it would be nice if the Sony Ericsson logo could be changed to make it more HTC'ish....
Blooming Marvelous!!! By far the best game I've tried on the HD yet . I agree that the icing on the cake would be to get g-sensor. Now that would be perfect!!
Thank you so much. This game is really cool and pretty. "It's strange to have a sony ericsson logo on a Touch HD .... xD".
Thanks you again!
I'm in 4,5 level.Why i can't go to next level?
This game is AMAZINGGGG!! Thanks!!!

This ain't gonna last long, that's Synchroniser's blog, he was posting his warez here, but the thread was locked / deleted.
This is a Warez thread, mod gods do ur thang
aww got me all excited for nothing... silly people
edit: hold on im gona give it a try
edit: ok ok ok i got it.. downloaded it. tested it. and it does look like xtrakt 2 to me
BUT! i made it safe for you guys and uploaded it here
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UHOSMXME
Working!
Tried it, it's working fine on my HD
Just need to disable "Accelerometer" to move
I think this is the update version of Xtract... in Sony Experia X2
Xtract X2
Yep.... Its the same as this Version >>DownLoad Here<<
Its an "updated" version of the original Xtrakt - new menu's etc with what seems like an improved game-play. If you have multitouch as on the HD2 you can dissable accelerometer in the settings and steer and fire at the same time using the screen....
I'm impressed....
.
i could not steer on my tp... so idk whats the problem. its not the good of a game for the tp either because some of the screen gets cut off
Multitouch is not working (I have disabled the accelerometer)...tested on HD2...
Much smoother than better, thanks! But it doesn't install to Storage Card.
(after installing, you can move it to memory card and it still plays just as smooth. no worries)
As an avid Rockbox user, I was excited when I discovered this page with precompiled apk's for us. Link I then sadly found out there was no VGA version, only QVGA, HVGA, and WVGA. So I decided to compile it for our beloved VGA RAPH devices. I attached the .apk. Download and install rockboxfixed.apk, download this and extract the "fonts" folder (Inside the zip it is /rockbox-fonts/.rockbox/fonts) to the "rockbox" folder on your sdcard then it should look like the second image and should be more usable. It appears, however, if you extract it to the sdcard you have to manually use the rockbox filebrowser or the theme settings to set it to your selected font. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Outdated: Haven't really gotten to test it so I expect I made an error somewhere, possible in signing the app or whatnot. I'll fix it tomorrow.
P.S. For anyone who doesn't know what Rockbox is: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/WhyRockbox
Edit: Noticed some issues then realized I compiled it for 640 x 480 landscape not 480 x 640 portrait like it should be. Uploaded a new version. *Crosses fingers*
Edit 2: To fix the tiny font follow these steps:
1. Download and extract this and extract it to your sdcard so you have a folder called "fonts" at the root of your sdcard.
2. Open terminal emulator and type: su
3. Type cd sdcard
4. Type cp -af fonts /data/data/org.rockbox/app_rockbox/rockbox
That should do it. It should now look like the second screenshot when you open rockbox. I'll see if I can incorporate the fonts into the apk but not sure how to do that right now.
Edit 3: Wow, just discovered something. You can just copy the fonts folder the the "rockbox" folder at the root of your sdcard. Makes it significantly easier.
Thanks for doing that. Man, i used to have an iRiver, and used and grabbed daily builds for that thing. For other's, it's a really awesome mediaplayer. Well, more then that. I was playing arcade games and doom and such thanks to Rockbox really. This was amazing for an MP3 player that is.

Yeah, I have a Gigabeat S that I LOVE with Rockbox. Best music experience hands down. But also, like you said, I played through doom and every Pokemon for Game boy. Sigh... good times. Anyways, have you tried my apk? Just curious how it works.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
Downloaded it, and will give it a shot later and report back. Thanks again.
Ok, tried it last night, and not usable. Something about the screen size might be wrong, as the screen fill's up the top left corner (about 1/16 of the screen), and the menu is so small you literally have to squint to read the text, instead of it filling the whole screen. I don't have a picture, but honestly, if you think about an icon size in "Sense", the whole screen menu is honestly MUCH smaller in size in whole then 1 Sense icon.

Lots not working,but not needing 3d accel for now, if mouse,keyboard, and screen at least works at a usable state,just to play with. Since guessing u use or at least test it, wanted to get some feedback from ya.

Well, it's not so much a new version as a way to fix the previous one. Anyways, Ubuntu is actually rather usable. Mouse, keyboard, and screen all work; it's just a little slow but not too bad. Sound is now partly working too.

Hi there,

Wanted to let you know that the fonts fix doesn't work on HTC Desire w/ Froyo. Sort of did everything as described but nothing.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

That's a native Android device... Not sure why you're posting in the Fuze section. Do they have the same resolution, and there is no RockBox app that is for the Desire...? I'd be surprised.

First off, you should download the WVGA version from here not the one I posted. Second, did you try copying the fonts folder to both locations, within the data folder and the sdcard? Just curious if one might work and not the other. I also changed the first post to be a little more clear. Actually I'm having a little trouble with getting it to recognize the fonts on the sdcard too. I just took the rockbox people's word for it. One way to fix it is to use the rockbox filebrowser and just select the font you want. That should do it.
P.S. I'm no dev either, I just know how to use a Linux command line somewhat.

You're very welcome. Timestretch has nothing to do with me, as I'm sure you already know. That's up to the real rockbox devs to incorporate. Just out of curiosity, what do you use timestretch for? I use it for learning guitar licks in songs.
Finally... I've been asking for a Rockbox port for ages!

Unfortunately the kaiser doesn't support anything above openGL1.0. Windows mobile didn't even have support for that so there will be games that don't run well or at all. At the same time it is not always a graphics issue, apps not starting can be related to other things too but i don't have experience with this one so i can't comment.
angry birds works for me with a overclock using gingerbones
On my kaiser on Cm 5.0.7 Stable work fine without overclock
i changed the rom using cyanogen and it runs ... slooooow and smooooth, but it runs.. i think i have to optimize android... but i dont know how =)
