I've looked through search and ive looked at the list of applications on the wiki, which im sorry is terrible.
whats the point in having something called eagleeyes when no one that read that would know what it was?
anyway i'm wanting to know if there is a website like http://www.ipfun.org/ or http://www.iphone-shaq.com/ or http://www.iphonewiki.com.au/iphone-games/
they seem to show all the apps and games and what not for iphone as well as tell you about them and whats their good for or not.
i'm having great difficulty finding the programs i would like.
a good gps that works in australia
a few good games such as texas holdem
a good media player that will play my music videos and movies (coreplayer doesnt work as the picture is all jitty and jumps everywhere)
a what of making the volume button not so sensitive as i seem to press it by accident all the time.
and a good weather app that will work for my town, the ones you go to online have my town in them but the one on the htc touch hd dont have one within 200kms of me.
i'm also sorry if i offend or offended anyone i dont mean to, this site is a great website but it isnt in the slightest user friendly at all.
why cant there just be an XDA HTC TOUCH HD wiki, go in there and then its a whole website on what you need and want for the htc touch hd?
1) ROM
2) Games
3) themes
4) applications
it would be so much easier for everyone i think...
mods please remove this if this is innappropriate, im not flaming anyone in particular just voicing my opinion/questions/help.
xtrakt ...awesome game for the HD and its a MUST HAVE - Full screen too
Real Dice MC poker to solve your texas holdem cravings.. downside is that it is not full screen but everything else works fine
Resco Bubbles ......great game similar to Teeter
Archibalds Adventure works great!!!
Boom Blox too..
Pocket Uno ..... Monopoly World .... Resco Brain Games.... Virtual pool Mobile..
These are the games i tested so far and works without any problems....
Happy gaming.....watch the battery usage though

This hasn't been done as it would take too long. List in wiki at present tells you which apps/games work. Its up to you to find out what they are.
Wiki is available for everyone to amend. If this means so much to you why not amend wiki yourself and create this improved list with descriptions of games etc
I agree that Apple help their customers better and provide information I would think was basic. Hopefully HTC will learn and hopefully improve
Would agree with previous person that Xtrakt was well worth getting on your HD, awesome game as is Need for Speed Undercover!!
Good luck on your new list!!!
Simply check my signature !
Btw, i can't make run bloombox on dutty ROM :S
well thats a good response from everyone, thankyou very much, ive never ammended wiki or posted on wiki before so ill give it a go and see what i can come up with.
ive now found a fiar few games, what about all the types of games that come on the iphone? like ifishing and the likes. there aqre a lot that use the gyrator type style to play the game. most of the games and apps ive found are real buggy and crash or arnt full screen. it seems that the iphone has better games and easier usage but the htc has more in it as its a windows device. it just seems really hard to get things to work!
just post the games, there are many developers that can fix the bugs andmake them HTC HD READY !
thaanxz to all
especially to you, WinterKnights
not too many for wvga out there yet im afraid. These are the games i have so far that work full screen 15 puzzle, all-in hold em by birdsoft, boom blox, monopoly here and now, pocketgrandmaster 4, resco bubbles, tiger woods 09 by EA sports, need for speed undercover with gsen support and touch support and xtrakt
see i like the games like resco bubbles and teeter
bubble breaker is good to still need to find a good holdem game.

You know, like the features you show your friends and they say wow!
For me the G sensor application for using in the car is pretty cool.

What program do you like best on your phone?
Looking forward to hearing your suggestions especially if it's free software others can try also.
I know this isn't specifically an HD program but I love WMWifiRouter.
TF3d Weather and Google Maps with GPS always gets people "ooh-ing" "aah-ing".
Maybe you could say why you like the programs too...
Klaxon 2.0.0.29
fancy alarm program that uses the g-sensor
definatly MusicID
People are stunned when I demonstrate the program.
It's so cool
MusicID and Teeter have impressed the few people I have shown.
For me I like having both Navigon & TomTom on one device (and the fact they load quickly - I had TomTom on my Orbit and I could have walked to my destination by the time it loaded)
My favorite is Astromist.
A planetarium in your palm with 390 mB data on the storagecard:
Detailed astronomical charts (planetarium with 2.5 millions of stars, 19000 Deep Sky Objects with their images),
Accurate simulators for Eclipses, Planets, Comets & Asteroids, or Artificial Satellites,
Intuitive atlases of the Moon and the planet Mars (1800 features and photos),
Smart Wireless control for your Telescopes including Dobsonians, GPS or Cameras.
Touch HD Remote Desktop connection to my Vista PC is really impressive! (thanks to the HD screen)
I've just installed MusicID, how useful and also cool can that be! The amount of times you are listening to a track in a club or on the radio, wondering who it is! Whip out your HD and find out!

I will try Pocket GForce now. It's not on the Wiki as programs working on the HD, does it definitely work?
Without any doubt - my all time favourite game - Transport Tycoon Deluxe (http://www.esoftinteractive.com/openttd.html). It runs smoothly and full screen (WVGA) on my Touch HD :-D
Game on! :-D

about MusicID
in the original thread there's talk about being uninstallable..
do you guys know that problem?
and how does it connect internet or phone or what?
sounds awesome, but i don't like flaws like hard to uninstall...

If you would have read a little further down in the original thread, you'd have seen that to uninstall, you simply run the cab again, let it uninstall the 'old' version, then cancel the new install. Simple as pie

Is it better than SHAZAM or just cheaper to use?
Shazam's music ID work with the touchscreen, previous versions where ported from symbian OS and only worked with the buttons.
MusicID is very cool.

Hello, Xda-developers....
I have been looking for interesting games for my Touch HD and Touch Pro and have sadly not been impressed by all of them... There have been some that stand out in my eyes, but not alot. So my plan is to create a group of developers to join in and make a series of great games for our Touch HD and (Touch Pro and Diamond). If anyone would like to help me in this process please do message me or post a reply... I have great graphic skills... but do not know much about developing windows mobile.
I have come up with a quick (outline of what some of the games will be) The shot is posted below...
again please contact me if you are interested in helping..
Current Developers:

I could be tempted to write either a TIME PILOT clone or a PINBALL game in either PPL (very easy) or C# if someone wanted to collaborate on graphics and Game play

There should be many games if we have VGA games emulator => WVGA fix (which already exist) which uses those 160x480 pixels as a virtual dpad like this
http://upload.csrune.com/files/dpadsip669.PNG
. So if you are really able to make some new game, then maybe you can this ? Because if you can, it would be much more usefull than one new game. With this, we can play loads of VGA games which needs dpad.
my hole point is to make a game specifically for the HD... which uses only hd functions so it can be fully optimized....
arent there any developers interested???
Hello guys!
Does anybody know if there is a version of Worms that works fine with hd? Maybe some great xda developers could make one? I've tried to install some versions but there is a problem with steering (no arrows - hardware buttons)
**** I can't live without this game PS Sorry for my English
Look at the sticky about compatibilities, or inside the wiki, links below. HiH.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442663
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software
no solution
Thank You, so now there is no solution
This might be extreme, but to save a life, you can use the arrow keys on a BT keyboard for most things, why not steering worms?
you can download SNAILS instead .
It's pretty like WORMS
Hi, i was looking for somethign similar, looks interesting.
Question is, does it work without buttons, only touchscreen ?
if there is ONER game i would like to have on my phone, that is worms. i could play for hours (depends on battery life though .. )
it's fully touch optimized
I play it only with stylus.
does it play on wvga? do u mean snails reloaded from pdamill?
Hi, snails seems not to be free... so perhaps it is better to buy worms if it exists for thouch HD.
Ciao
Fred
I would really like to play on my HTC HD at this great peace of game ( worms ).. would it be possible to add a virtual pad on the space left by the game on the screen? maybe i'm just dreaming
I put in the directory of the game the file WWPSave from the Elf thread and i managed to use only volume button to jump...
I can highly recommend Atomic Cannon 3.0
http://www.isotope244.com/atomic_cannon_pocket.html
This is a worms style game but tanks instead of worms. It has some great graphics and some cool physics, with lots of different weapon types (including animal bombs, similar to the sheep from worms). full screen wvga also!
snails is almost exacly like worms and works perfectly on the HD, only its not wvga though.
try it out there a demo available to.

Thanks it's really amazing!!! I was just playing a similar game on the iphone of my friend and now i have it on my Blackstone!!!
I'm really enthusiastic!
Can anyone reccommend any apps which dont necessarily serve a purpose but are just cool to have on the Touch HD? Things like the diamond hologram and the lightsaber? Thanks.
btw, im sure this has been posted many times before but in this thread we're looking for cool gadget-type apps as opposed to games or tools which are useful.:
Look for the hologram software prepared for the Diamond. It works on the HD but you cannot zoom in/out because of the lack of hardware keys.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450571
Thanks, but I kinda already mentioned the Hologram...
Sorry kinda skimmed through your post.
What about I Am Rich? Cloned from the famous iPhone app?
Also transfer some really high definition shots which are particularly in focus and sharp (|theres a difference|) and show em to people. Make sure they're bright too. The little HD screen is reall HD (high definition) in contrast to whats out there right now. Sure the Experia has the same screen resolution (480x800) but the screen is too small to actually allow one to enjoy the high resolution.
i always liked the guitar and piano tuning programe its freeware and always cool esp if your friends acan actually play and instrument. do a search its in the list of working programs
I lot of what you need is covered here in a similar thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469782&highlight=demo
Ive already got some nice pictures to show off the HD, but thanks for the idea.
The thread was kinda helpful but towards the end made me feel as if i had chosen the wrong device (touch HD over iPhone) as, at the end of the day, im the type of person who wants an entertainment device as opposed to one gears towards productivity. The Touch HDs GPU doesnt help things either...
Anyway, back on topic, any other apps? Thanks for your help so far
well u already mentioned apps like diamond saber , diamond beer .
u can try omniano , if u havent already
other windows mobile apps like g alarm or g watch made by members here look cool on the big screen .
or i contacts / sms chat
cant think of more apps but u can edit touch flo 3d use transparent clock or different themes etc. or maybe winterface ... it looks good on the hd
Any more Apps?

That one was nice
I find the best way to show off the HD is to have a high resolution, high quality video, then play a bit of it to people. That gets wows! I've had mine since mid November and it still makes me go "wow" when I play videos encoded using the Encoder GUI from this forum!
That really does work better than it sounds. Thanks.
Any others?
Try MusicID - a guaranteed hit.
It used to be freely available, however there was some discussion whether it was freeware of shareware.
Music ID is awsome... I honestly dont know how I managed without it. Trying to recall half a lyric I thought I heard while I was drunk. I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago. It's still free as far as I know. Obviously it connects to the net to get the data, so if you're not on WiFi then you'll be charged by your network for data.
"quickmark" is good fun. (just mentioned it in another thread) It's a kind of barcode scanner, but only scans 2d barcodes. Still good fun, especially creating them for friends.
any others?
It's amusing to offer to save their internet connection, by setting up your WM phone as a Wifi router and allow them to use your connection.
Most amusing for iPod Touch users who don't have a data connection at all, but can use Wifi!

wow! please some one make this work! i'll be a tester too! i love baldurs gate and if i can play it on my hermes it will be amazing!
hey! developers! nobody loves BG&PST? (
Great ideas Guys hope they post this soon while am waiting al just play Doom 1,2, TNT etc. and Dukenuken 3D on my WM cant wait for this lol
Seems to me it would be an easy job, as all you would need to do is have the proper dependencies. http://forums.gibberlings3.net/index.php?showtopic=16785
This forum has a post about it, with a link to installation instructions. I don't have time to hassle with it now, but looks like you need a few libs installed and thats it. If anyone wants to try gof or it! Seems like all we would need is a CAB to install dependencies, and that youtube vid was a year ago, I am sure there is a way now.
Baldur's Gate would be the best and looks like the entire focus of the development. Problem would be that it would be VGA only. I don't see this working on a qvga screen. The original game was 480x640 with BG2 being able to play at VGA or higher.
well, i searched for a version of gemrb for ppc but found nothing on google... if any of the developers could create one it would be great! i really want to play baldurs gate on my hermes!
Oh man this would be awesome on my Touch HD. Good find! Now hopefully the gurus around here will take a look and get it working.
The last (and only) time I tried to port a python game to Windows Mobile, I was stuck at getting pygame to run. This seems to have less dependencies so might be easier.
I love the 2D series of RPGs but GemRB is nowhere near complete yet.
Well am not a programming guru but you Guys keep saying that its easy to port thats Good but can you tell us if your porting right now and we should wait for it to get completed or no body started yet I really wish I can help but again am not a programer al leave this to the pros
wow, this would be AWESOME if someone could get it to work!
If someone wants to try porting, here is a post with links to WinCE versions of the required libraries. I haven't tried any of them and the link is in Russian.
... made by the original poster, no less
because i am not a programer, if you csn tell me what to do, i am will to try my self... and where to find the games?
The games? You have to buy and prepare them for GemRB yourself. There was some discussion of fanmade games for GemRB but it is a lot of work.
Porting such a program is not a trivial task and is impossible for a non programmer.
yes, i am sorry, i figure it out about the games after that post... it's good then i have all the series of bg and IWD in my home... so, if i can not do anything because i am not a programer, as i said before i am willing to beta test so please, anyone can make it happend?
anyone?
I want this to happen! There's gotta be somone out there who can do it!
This would...
This would change my life! (well my free time)
FOR EVER! (for at least 2 weeks until I complete it again.)
I have such warm fuzzy memories of this game. Imoen the theif girl who I am sure I managed to pull.....
Hours and hours of clicking frenzy.
Never Winter nights 2 just never grabbed me in the same way that these old games did.
I really hope that this can be done. I am unable to sit in front of my PC and replay this as I have so many things I wan to play and look at. Having this on mobile wouyld be perfect!!
