HTC TOUCH HD
Overview
Okay so all over this forum there's people asking for the best apps for the HD, well why not just make the one that people can post all of their favourite and best apps for their phone.
I don't mean the working software sticky that has everything, some that don't even work, I mean the customers choice as to whats best, both free and paid for.
The iPhone is one hell of a competition and for us WM users we need stuff that makes the WM phones just as good and with that we need the best apps, Microsoft is soon to be bringing out Marketplace but until then this'll have to do.
Happy App hunting folks.
Good Apps
okay so here goes.

what about xtrakt? its not a fantastic game but the graphics are good. the VR hologram app is also a fun app to play with.
music id (although the omnia's midomi is supposed to be superior), google maps, modaco nodata (disables GPRS), resco bubbles and brain games, shootme (gun app) and VS notepad (paid) are my favourites
I really appreciate the "Mobile Wifi Router" in blackstone. So far none of my friends actually think there's a pda that can do such thing.
Resco file explorer (paid) is a must have for me.
The first soft that comes everytime after a reflash to my Touch HD is TotalCommander (free), the second one is G-Alarm (paid).
For Geocaching its GCzII (free), for a quick Game its Chuzzle (paid) and Pocket Uno (free), for Music its MortPlayer (oh, and don't forget MortButtons, both free and despite the fact its quite useless (or you want to play a bit on the nerves of your colleagues *g*) i like the Clanger Theremin App *g*
A few Days ago i found an App for Banking on WinMobile, called "Subsembly Banking Mobile", everything you need for yor daily money-shifting, i think i will buy it, 'cause its working flawless 'till now and looks good so far.

I have TomTom 7 and Memory map on mine with all CAA charts. It is a total god send when you get sent in the field to pick up an aircraft.
This phone is perfect except for two things.
Iphone has aviation weather and loads of games.
Still wouldn't trade it though.
HDWobble or HDBoobs is a nice toy
And the Lightsaber. And BeMario is nice too
Pretty similar thread here:
What software do you have installed on your HD?
I've only just got my THD, and am still building it to me liking, so am interested in these kinds of threads

I happen to travel a lot, and often end up checking the same stuff over and over again on the net.
And i am getting sick and tired of Solitaire
Does anyone know of a fun game, wich doesnt get old to quickly? (i dont mind paying for a really good game, but freeware is welcome to)
Also i have been looking for something like a GBA emulator but they are few and far between.
So if anyone knows of a good working Emulator (with sound!) feel free to point me at it
Also, any way to get MSN to work on the Artemis?
What about emulator of GB/GBC - Pocketgnuboy, it's free and has hundreds of games.

Can anyone advise how to play worms world party as there is no d-pad?
Where are the games for these emulators? Haven't found any.
Thanks

I'd probably get into trouble for saying the exact sites, but Google sure does pick up a lot of details and the SCUMMVM program should have some free* games (BASS, etc) on the site.
The only one thats a major issue is the Playstation emulator which is both slow and of course the lack of buttons on the phone. Other than that, the emulators work brilliantly.
*free as in they've been included on cover discs of magazines, etc.
I'll take a look at that PocketGNUboy, thanx!
ScummVM does not seem to have a Windows Mobile 5 version, or does it?
Then there's MSN, did they stop making that for PDA's?

You can use the 2003 version, that works fine.
SuDoKu
I sudoku most times...the games always makes you think differently, even if playing the same game...good for your brain cells.
The version I downloaded....now I cant remember where from is Superdoku - google it.
All the best
anyone?? RE: no d-pad on worms. it's very inconvenient try to use the scroll wheel or the roller ball and you can be precise and u have to keep repeating rather than holding a button.

Not really, i installed that version and my clock dissapeared, i needed to reset my device to get it back :/
I'm not a hard player but I've been looking for a good PPC game for a long time. Got really bored with Solitaire. Tried chess and a few other games. The problem always was that PPC is not a very good platform for complicated games especially if it comes to controls. Recently I found a game that is great. Well - it's not free but kills the time perfectly. It's Virtual Pool Mobile by Celeris. The graphic is cool, fantastic phisics model and very easy control. You can play and play. Many modes to choose. I recomend it.
P.S.
I don't work for them

- Resco Diamonds
- Worms World Party
- Resco Guardians Ultimate Collection
i'm still having no luck playing worms without a d-pad on the orbit. can ANYONE help me?!
The PDA Mill collections are really cool I love PDAMill Gamebox Classics. Has very addictive puzzle games with nice sound and graphics. If you like asian games like Sokoban you can also try PDA Mill Gamebox Asia!
Sky Force 1.1 is another game to recommend. It also plays nicely with the trackball Same with the free Space Invaders you can get from Microsoft if you register for the Win Mobile Newsletter
Have fun.
The lack of a pad is really the only weakness of the Artemis I've found so far but it's not that tragical with games.
Girders... not free but great
http://microsoft.handango.com/Platf...0&productType=2&platformId=2&productId=173733
Some more must have games:
1. Bounty Hunter 2099 - Fantastic pinball!!!!
2. Fishopolis - You must shoot fishes Sound lunatic, but is fantastic in reality. The game uses the camera as a motion detector
3. Age of Empires Gold - You should know what this is and it is very, very good on the PPC...
4. 9 Hole Golf - Cool 3D golf and completely free. Get it from Microsoft.com
5. Need for Speed: High Stakes - Another PC port to the PPC. Plays with the touchscreen...
6. Tomb Raider - Lara in your pocket (tm). Too good to miss if you are into young sexy brunettes

just paid £12 for it looks like its worth it cheers for the tip
I just loaded Schap's WM6 Pro 4.00 Beta 3 ROM (CE 5.2.1933 build 18533.0.7.0) from the forum. I followed the guide, updated the bootloader, the radio, etc. Its great, quite an update from the WM5 that ships with the hermes (8525). BUT, I want more.
I then loaded SNES, with super mario world, and the genesis emulator with sonic the hedgehog, which is great, but the phone buttons are a bit lacking. still it keeps me occupied on my stupid 30 minute break at work that I would happily give up to go home 30 minutes earlier.
So heres the reason i'm posting...
What are your favorite apps? I've tried the flashlight app (cool), the new comm manager (cool), and the new office that comes in the rom. Its all impressive, but i'm hoping theres more stuff to play with out there. I whip out my phone constantly when i'm bored and play with the settings, and change the theme, and just in general see what I can get it to do.
Let me know what apps you like, and preferably put some links up. If you would do me a favor, try to keep discussion about how much you like or dislike someone's posted app. THANKS ALL, and thanks for keeping my brain from nullifying into goo when i'm bored.
My fav pasttime is the Bejeweled game, quite addicting (and I have an addictive personality, which helps, LOL! )
My clients like that along with Texas Holdem, Blackjack and Backgammon.
Of course the MobiTV and Cingular XM Radio's are also nice...
I've seen scores of Games and Apps posted by 100's of members all over the forum. Frankly, I never did like most of the games for some reason. I always wanted something that was action packed, easy to play in terms of controls, fast and snappy. All this and more I found in Tennis Addict by Hexacto / Jamdat. Believe me... it's a highly addictive game. You can't ever put the stylus back into the silo after this
The only other game aside from this that I enjoyed playing was Atlantis Redux 1.4 by Tetraedge. It's a 3D adventure game like Myst.... but much, much, much better. This is really a fantastic game. Great story... very intriguing, very simple controls... you don't need a rocket science degree to navigate through it and it has out of this world graphics.
I've recently started playing Syberia, although I must say I fancy it a lot lesser than Atlatis Redux.
That's what I do on my PPC to keep from getting bored. Oh and ofcourse there is Age of Empired Gold Edition.
For me the favorite past time is Mike Miller's SuperDoku. And trying to find interesting freeware on the net. Right now it is WkTask and QuickMenu 2.7.
HandySwitcher. I would die with out it.
Opera Mini (Java App.... hopefully you know what this is)
PIE+ (Add-on for PIE. Great add-on
Weather Panel (Today screen weather)
Games:
I'm a fan of Insaniquarium, SPB Minesweeper II, Titanic, and Kevtris.
Good on-the-crapper games
How have we got this far in the topic without mentioning
- Worms World Party (best loo game EVER)
- Tomb Raider (make mates jealous)
- Coreplayer 1.1 (encode some Family Guy episodes with PocketDivxEncoder and laugh through your break)
- TCPMP with FLV plugin and www.mobytube.net (trawl YouTube whenever you're bored or need to entertain the kids)
- SPB Arkaball 2 (great Arkanoid game)
- All Mobile Mines (great Minesweeper clone)
- Another World (found in the Xda-Dev FTP, was a big fan of Amiga version & this is a perfect copy)
Think that'll do for now!
Ohhh yeah, Worms World Party! Haven't played that one in a while... really gotta fire that one back up soon.
....
I mainly want to bump this thread but I like:
TCPMP
Vtap - youtube vids made easy
opera mini
MS Live Search w/ voice (for traffic and business listings)
Google Maps
Hi,
I know of Resco and SPB, however are there any recommendations as to which Brain Trainer to go for?
Thanks
The new Resco Brain Games (v3.00) display very well on WVGA..
And the games aren't that bad
It's only a shame you can't change the volume in the game (you'll have to mute the whole phone)
Spb Brain Evolution only supports QVGA and VGA...
Grtz,
Degake
I prefer the SPB which I had on a Touch Pro and it was good. But, it is not working well on the HD when I tried it a few months ago. Maybe they have a version now for the HD.
Resco I have also and it works fine.
Mr. Genius Vol.1 is also ok, best score is 1679.. Took a lot of bus rides though.

Install the Marketplace cab that's floating around from WM6.5. Trapster is available for free and works fine in WM6.1, but it is a bit slow to load and navigate around.
Great App Sean,
would love to see Trapster Lite developed that uses GPS but no data connection (offline use), when you see a trap if logs the coordinates and uploads when connected to the internet. The map is very data intensive and would end up costing me a lot of money. Or an option to turn off the map but still get the warnings.
Would be also great working with tomtom on windows mobile so that you could be intigrated.
Just install w/the cab...worked fine for me. Used it yesterday on a 5 hours drive, pointed out police speed traps a few times. ;D
first off all, let me state, this is not supposed to become one of those "i want iphone games on my hd" threads and i am aware of the sticky post with the list of compatible games in this forum section, this is merely to collect opinions and information on certain games and fun apps for the blackstone.
please don't forget to state the version of the games for compatibility and possiblly the developer, and where one could buy those games (or in case of freeware, download them). please do not post warez links, i will report them.
since many wvga games these days are targeted at the HD2, some of them might be slow, if so, please mention that.
But now, let's get to the point:
What Games/Fun Apps are you running on your HD?
I currently have:
1. Droplets Free 2.0 (XIM INC), Puzzle game, Version 3.0, from Marketplace, free
2. Love Hurts Free (XIM INC), Arcade, Version 1.3, from Marketplace, free
3. Huff and Puff (Touch Dimensions), Puzzle, Version 1.1, from Marketplace, 1.39eur (runs slowly)
4. Experiment 13 (Southend Interactive), Puzzle/Platform, from somewhere around XDA, free (slow)
5. Xtrakt (Southend Interactive), 3D Racing/Shooting, from XDA, free (a little slow)
6. Godaft (Loffactory), Music, http://www.loffactory.webs.com/, free
7. FreeCell (nandhp), Card Game, Version 1.2, from freewareppc, free
8. BubbleBreaker, Solitaire, Teeter (pre-installed)
I think it is very hard to find decent games for the Blackstone, because while it is slower than the Leo, it also has another big issue, keeping it from being a good gaming device: It doesn't have a hardware keyboard and no multitouch, meaning, controlling classic plattform/action games is nearly impossible. Therefore, innovative game concepts like experiment 13 or huff and puff strike me the most, as they overcome these issues and offer both short time fun while waiting for the bus, as well as long time motivation.
as soon, as there are some answers in, i can maybe add an actuall poll, we'll see, how it works out till then.

ShootMe! 2.6: great fun apps, like lightsaber, whip, shaving, slapping...

flight commander: very similar to one of the most successful iphone/ android game
and spb online, to play reversi online
