Need For Speed & Monopoly? - Touch HD Themes and Apps

So I know that it was basically JUST announced that the HD will now include these two games, but I'm wondering if anyone has cabs?
For anyone who hasn't read it yet: http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=3985
Alternatively, I would be more than happy to spend $10 on the Need For Speed version already available on several app sites, but it seems that version only works with hardware controls, whereas the version on the HD works with the G-Sensor.

It's always the way isn't it! You spend a truck load of money on a device and then the manufacturer comes along and makes it cheaper and better.
Oh how I curse thee early adopter syndrome!
Hopefully the legends here will be able to extract the games and cab them up. Can't see how it could be considered Warez. If the Need for Speed is as good as Xtrakt then I'm laughing. Devices this good need to have better games, and ones that make use of the g-sensor. As much as I love Uno, it's hardly impressive!

Oh yeah right, I "extract" something from a shop - how can it be considered stealing? I dont think EA (the game manufacturer) intends to share it here with all of us. Maybe Monopoly, its a trial and needs to be activated on the HD.

i think the guy means extract it from a rom when and if we get an updated rom with games in them, which would be possible, we jus gotta wait to see how they release them

freeware
it aint going to be freeware so they wont be on roms as that sort of thigs isnt allowed here. Rom cooking is tolerated by HTC and other parties but that would dry up very quickly if people started adding stuff like coreplayer mobile and non freeware games. You'll have to find a "backup" copy on torrents

If that's the case then how come an extacted copy of Xtrakt from the X1 has been permitted on here? We don't know (or at least I don't know) the details of how these games are going to be included in the newly bought HDs.
If there's something on the HTC site about it then I couldn't find it. The link from the wmpoweruser site doesn't go to any article and when I looked it wasn't a headline on the HTC site.

surely the word "Bundled" means included as in already on the phone when u get it, my prime example would be the xtrakt game that came with a xperia rom and was extracted and we can use on our device, so yes it will be possible if thats how the games were implemented.
i understand that ea dont release freeware games but if they do get released "Bundled" into a rom update theres no reason why we couldnt update to that rom so i dont see why we couldnt extract the rom and get the goods,
WE SHALL SEE,
you never know it might just be a link to the games in the box when u get the games

just beat me to it lol!

Folks, I'd be willing to bet the house that the next official ROM upgrade release from HTC for the HD will include the two games. And we all know that official ROM upgrades are free. So to me, if you own an HD, upgrading for free to a new official ROM that includes the two games, is no different than getting them here in cab form.
Now, if HTC never releases a new official ROM for the HD, then all that is moot.

Oh of course I forgot, HardSPL was made available by HTC, so you can update your ROM, and of course you can update your HD with a Xperia ROM and copyrighted software on it...nono...keep on dreaming.
I profit from updates and extracts like you guys, but I dont give myself false excuses for it. And again, the Monopoly game is just a trial on the Singapore HD. Peace.

im not making excuses im stating it how i see it, if it gets released in a updated rom then its mines MINES i tell u, if i have to pay for it i will, either way ill have the game,,,
so what about the manila update for rhodium that got bundled into a rom and extracted and now is available on our phones, so deal with it, calm down with your mr police officer act, we're all just speculating. not promoting theft

From my point of view they aren't selling it, so if we get it here for free they've not lost any revenue.
If they were to offer it for sale then that'd be different, but I'm sure they wouldn't be short of sales from us and others.
Given that we want to encourage games like this on WM it would be foolish not to buy it if we can. If we can't then we can still show that there's a demand for it.

I would most definitely be interested in acquiring those games for my HD! I hope you guys are right in your guess with them being included in the next rom update from HTC. I'm loving Xtrakt, Need 4 Speed would be the game I've been waiting for personally!
Hopefully soon!

it will be great to get these games.. i hate seeing the iphone ads on tv where they play games that utilize the g-sensor.. finally htc will utilize this utility and do it also!

I've confirmed that the version of this game currently available at Handango does NOT support the G-sensor.
So, HTC, hurry up already, will ya?!

How did you confirm. Users in other forums bought 0.1.42 version and it supports GSensor on their HD. Handago-Link: http://bit.ly/40nZhP
On top of the screen it has a button to turn GSensor on/off during play

im quite anxious...

Windows Market place open!

Windows Market place open!
uuuuurm what ???
theres a market place ???
where ???
link ???
maybe a really stupid question but - where is it- where do I have to go or do to get in it??
read about it at www.engadget.com and I was really excited about it, hope that there will be something for Touch HD !!!
try this http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/catalog/cataloghome.aspx
hmm, I hope things improve, because currently that site just makes me think the exact same thing as Bing: "Google just works better"
Hi
This market is not only too late, but also ridiculous.
with friendly greet
Starbase64
wow that just sucks as an attempt for a market place, they had better improve that - most of the stuff you can get using good old google - why use that?
it would also be better if it had a phone version of it as well so that we could download the stuff direct to our phone - dont make it like a website make it like the android market that thing is a million times better than this!!!
Just logged into marketplace and it says coming soon, where are you guys getting this info from?
Useless! Google is all we need: with it you could find new app but very old (and sometime more usefull) too.
D'rath
and now im officially un-impressed, lol
I was honestly hoping they were new applications, made for new windows mobile and made with new standards. Not the same old crap we already have.
Marketplace is not open
Here Is the Link : -
http://client.marketplace.windowsmobile.com/
Coming Soon
The market place has been there for a long time. I've uesed it once or twice in different forms over the last few years... the site we are waiting for is not available yet... as far as I can tell.
As Stated Previously
this is the site
http://client.marketplace.windowsmobile.com/
The actual mobile marketplace I think is actually http://client.marketplace.windowsmobile.com/ (which is "coming soon").
The REAL marketplace is still "coming soon"
The other link posted on page one IS NOT the marketplace, its just a showcase site for apps that links to other sites where you can buy.
This time around Microsoft is doing it right and going for an Apple style appstore.
Once again something comes along before Microsoft think of it and they make an half ass attempt at it quickly just to get it out!! (Obviously I know its not actually out just yet)
Doesnt anyone think it a little bit odd that the link to marketplace in the leaked build says "windowsmobile" ?
Especially as MS are so desperate to rebrand our beloved devices as "windowsphone"
fwiw also look at what the bootstrap triggers in marketplace app.
Looks suspiciously like a date to me..
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Security\Software\Microsoft\Marketplace]
"BootStrapInstalledPath"="\\Windows\\WMMBootstrap.exe"
"WebServiceUpdateServer"="https://client.marketplace.windowsmobile.com/bootstrap/02/2009"
"DownloadLocation"="\\Windows\\WMMarketplace.cab"
"MarketInstallLocation"="\\Windows\\WMMarketplace.exe"
Anyone ever seen anything different?
Wow, if you're planning to beat Appstore, at least pretend like you're trying to improve their formula.
No information on resolution, handset compatibility, pricing info for a start.
It's one of the many pages on available software and not even a good one. Plus the mobile version is not even online.

Fishing game

Hello all. Unfortunately, I don't know if this game exists, but i want it so bad!! It's the fishing game from iphone. it is amazing! I think that is working with all accelerometer devices. I'm wondering if it is imported to windows mobile.
Look at this movie.
i want this too
Sorry guys, only possible with an IPHONE look at appulo . us

it may only be AVAILABLE on the iphone currently...
but there is nothing the game does making it not POSSIBLE on the HD.
we just need some clever devs to start making decent windows 3d & g-sensor based games.
The only way I can think about, is to programm all fast applications in java.
But I cant do that myself. And microsoft is not innovative enough at the moment. Also missing is the multitouch function. Cant be so heavy Bill
Show us the future as soon as possible or you will loose a lot customers
too bad then. it was so nice to be played on windows mobile that game.

Dunno if they ever will, I have considered writing games but my work will just get cracked and distributed, just look around at all the request for free games, serials, cracks. Why would I put my time into it? I have to feed a family with the time I got, I imagine other devs too.
how much can cost that game? I supose that few euros, and if you collect from each user, you can make few ones.

The thing is, some applications for the Iphone are only 0.50 $ up to 1.99$
at the moment it sounds not really much, but I would rather give up to 2 $ instead of spending hours looking for cracked warez software. And you would have millions of customers instead of just 1000 and than it is cracked
Nothing stopping any dev's taking donations for their hard work. Also, I know of one person who takes money for Security unlocking devices, though does offer it for free to people who have already donated to XDA or have added value to the site.
In theory this game could work for the HD, but would require a good bit of time to develop it. Maybe too much time for one person to set aside.

Wm7 and we??? ( mod sites )!!

Soo!!!
One thing i still not read around ( or at last i still not found)...
Microsoft will change the WAY of WM7 are deployed/resleased...
Same for partners... programs developers...
Seems will be more like IPHONE/Apple.
So!!
How we will be?
Microsoft will still alow "WE" to change and MOD the ROMS?
We need to worry about how they will TREAT US? who change and mod the roms?
This is a serious thing. Same for the WINMO FUTURE.
ALL DEVELOPERS and SITES WITH "NDa" AGREEMENT with microsoft. ITs good to give us how will be the RELATIONSHIP with them...
Any talk about this?
Well if this already was discussed here, apologise...
But its a good thing to talk about..
take a look at the wp7s dump thread...
What? a rom dump from emulator?
Maybe im just thinking ahead.. or Being paranoic.
But ok..
I think people here dont understand what is likely to happen, at the moment ms lets sites like xda have leaked roms and customs roms and says although they dont like it they are not going to do anything.
come wm7s the devices will have to be unlocked the same way iphones are now and this helps people customize there iphones and put copied games and apps on.
I believe ms wont be so reasonable when xda sites and others start unlocking/cracking wm7s and changing stuff that there trying to control so strongly.
I believe ms will crack down on people and sites messing with roms when wm7s is released like apple does with people with unlocked iphones.
This was what i want know..
No one are speaking about this...
And this is one thing we need to worry about..
WILL WE NEED TO BE IN UNDEGROUND LIFE to do what we are doing today?
How microsoft will feel, when someone here or another site, get acess to full api for free? Or take acess to sistem files, or save the files downloaded from marketplace or install programs withouth THE BIG LINCESE, and close the the doors for BIG BROTHER SIDE OF IM LOOKING INSIDE YOUR PHONE LIKE YU OR NOT POWER, microsoft will have?
This is something XDA MODS need to put in discussion, more than if will or not have copy and paste. or if the wm7 will be BEAUTY.
From what i know and its clear.
More we dont want, MORE APPLE will be. PHONEs will be more a game fluffy plataform than a deep platform like its today ( besides be more friendly.)..
If this happens, COME ON ANDROID... im already loving mine nexus one more than mine hd2 at moment. At last i know a kind of updates and for a time im to have. and WM7 will be the pint of mine definitive choice.
:-(

Super nintendo emulator wm6.5

I did not create this app I just cabbed it and did work on the reg. Games can be played in landscape mode to the right or left. Transperency works. Very fast!
Install both cab files. Will not work on some keyboards unless you turn off T9.
www.4shared.com/file/pgaXlhbT/SNES9XPPC.html
Works great with this app that lets you use a Wiimote or PS3 controller as a bluetooth gamepad.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=689984
I made this for the TP2 to be used with the TVOUT function but it will work on all resolutions.
if it works where can i download the roms for it??
or do i dont need it???
And for the ones interested here's the homepage (source for this build is included).
I haven't played much with emulators on my PDA (frankly the state of emulation on the platform is depressing... but then again so is the state of everything else). Not even sure which version is the best...
For anyone interested here are more builds:
PocketSNES by emu193 (?)
PocketSNES by n0p
SnesGo/PocketSNES by rlei (no sources available)
PocketSNES (the father of all these mods)

The roms are 100% legal to download and play if he already owns the game cartridge or the rom is a game someone created like many of the super mario hacks. You have no clue if he owns super nintendo cartridges so it is wrong to assume he is gonna partake in illegal activity. So I will go ahead and recomend ********.

You gotta be joking, right? It bothers me beyond belief when people try to get smart about things that are as clear as day. With that same reasoning, you should be able to post links for every piece of music, film, and software ever created because you can assume that people are indeed in possession of said materials.
Congratulations. You just earned yourself a vacation from this site for breaking rules and for posting warez even after a warning not even directed to you.

No they are not. Some games are in the public domain, and can be posted here and linked to any public domain (pd) rom site. Copyrighted material is different. In this case of games.. You would still need to back up your own games with your own dumping hardware. And with the US DCMA, even backing up your own games with your own hardware is a grey area. (Due to the fact that you are purchasing a license to a game, and not the physical game itself. Look at any EA license.)
Downloading is always a no-no. No matter what that BS TOS/disclaimer says on some rom site. The right to back up what you have is your responsibility and can not be downloaded.
Me backing up my own CD -- Legal.
Me downloading a copy of a CD I own -- Illegal.
(of course this is a simple example, cracking protection schemes is another legal story all together.)
On Topic: Ive found, although not perfect, morphgear is the best for snes emulation. Theres also a few versions of LJP (little-john palm os) which iirc became LJX and got ported to a few different platforms. I know I used to use one version on my old Treo 750. So there have to be a few WM versions out there. Currently cant find any. Will see if I can find any old data backups from my Treo 750.
If anyone wants free, legal roms for snes... http://www.pdroms.de/files/supernes/

I think we have to wait for Gameloft to update the games for tegra 3
I had emailed them before and their response was rather disappointing. Why other games which was initially offered in low resolution 480x800 like NFS shift is ok with one x and theirs cannot, really pissed off by their marketing tactics here.
See below their response.
Dear Customer,
Thanks for contacting Gameloft's Customer Care.
I apologize for the trouble and difficulties you have encountered with the game you have purchased.
Unfortunately, your Android device is not supported. (HTC ONE X)
Our development team is constantly working to bring new games to all platforms. We do not currently have any specific information to share about release of games for your device.
Please do not try to download a game which is not for your specific phone model. Each game is built for one particular device. If your phone is not listed, it's no use trying to get another game build. It will not work and it is not meant to work.
Gameloft assumes no liability for purchaser error, trial versions, software purchased for the wrong telephone, device or platform for any reason ("Purchaser Errors").
You accept full responsibility for confirming that the phone or other device manufacturer, phone or other device model, and carrier are supported and that the phone or other device is compatible to the products or services purchased, downloaded or otherwise obtained by you through the Site.
We accept NO RETURNS on software downloads. Please read the system requirements very carefully before making any purchases.
Please accept our apologies for causing you any inconveniences.
Best wishes
*Of course it's only frustrating for people who bought the app last time. And to see some games working nicely with low res and high res adds more disappointments towards them(gameloft). Scaling is not bad, doesn't have to be with the native res of one x.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Wow what an awful reply from a developer. I suppose at least you got a reply unlike the author of jenga.
We live and learn, I also own that game, but now I won't purchase any more gameloft games if they are going to treat paying customers this way, they could have said sorry we will take a look etc, not go on about their refund policy and our responsibility to check.
Very poor form from them and a customer lost here now

No it's not a stupid question. But you did create yet another thread on Asphalt 6 when there's 1-2 others already.

Sorry about that ,didn't saw them.
Yeah i've tryed all day to make the Asphalt 6 run on my friends HOX because he had it bought on another phone and he tryed to put it in his actual HOX,but..no luck.There are many games that don't work on HOX because of the Tegra 3,let's hope the developers will update them.
As for NFS:Shift...i hate it,i don't like anything about that game,honestly,i think that it's the worst possible racing game out there.
