Mimir[IS] Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) We have been working on something for Android for a bit, it is not EVEN close for prime time... but for grins I popped EnB in to see how it looked. What do you think? one of the only ways currently to get screen grabs from Android phones is the Dalvik Debug Monitor... looks fake but not.

Slayerman Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Should have been an iPhone, plus the windows border at the top wouldn't be on a smartphone Bit difficult to read the chat but would be nice to have an app to log in and chat via iPhone / Android Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for iPhone... we are iPhone developers but have found the process to get an application to market is almost not worth the effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garblesoup Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Yes, it is real, loads of work to be done yet. Pretty cool. No, that's wrong, that's WAY cool! Would love to see it on my Evo.

You have to sign away your firstborn to get anything done. As for Android, what language can you write apps in? Does android support any linux-compatible binary executable?

Slayerman Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Both the iPhone and Android are Linux back ends... Ive seen this before - Android is being ported and DUAL BOOTED on iDevices... funky stuff. CDel: AppStore already have IRC clients (see Colloque (spelling?????) so getting that passed shouldnt be a major issue as long as its coded properly. Mimir: Do you guys have a website or anything we can follow this on? I have a hard time believing this is real due to the fact that there are clearly windows style borders and buttons all over that interface, sorry, i don't mean to offend you or challenge your integrity, but the iPhone jailbreak scene has taught me not to believe anything until i see it my self If this is indeed real, looking good, and good luck with the project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My420Time Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) This has fake written all over it. This is just a resized screenshot put over a fake phone. There are several application for taking screenshots in android by the way. For example Android Screenshot and ShootMe. As for the question about what is android written in, the main language is Java but they also offer the NDK which will allow you do to C++. You can also get away with using C in your logic. EDIT: On a side note about the chat application for android. If all the in game chat uses is IRC it would be extremely easy for me to whip up an application and get it on the market in a few minutes.

Was going to whip something up for everyone. You should switch to Android! Apple's market is a pain in the butt. I've developed a few iPhone apps(Mainly for corporation internally) and fortunately only had to try to get one on the market. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL ... It's not fake, and you make me sorry to have shared it with this community. And if you are not familiar with the development platforms for the Android how are you a professional Android developer. I will tell you it is based on Windows DDK and a mirror driver. Possibly you have seen the Apple version out for the iPad/iPhone? This is what we are basing ours on. So before you the "professional Android developer" <- what does that mean exactly? You have an application that you have charged for? What are your apps by the way? So before you start saying something is a fake because you are not capable of doing something think twice. Come to think of it I really don't like being called a liar. Edited October 22, 2010 by Mimir 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimir[IS] Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 so basicly it's VNC client on android and EnB client is still running in your PC, right ? Yes, the concept is based on VNC. Not out of the box VNC but modifications on both ends Windows side as well as the Android side. VNC is great used from a PC to a PC but if you have looked at VNC on the smart phone it is far from usable. For me anyway. So the VNC is being rewritten (both sides) specifically for use on the smaller screen size and touch screen capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have an application that you have charged for? What are your apps by the way? So before you start saying something is a fake because you are not capable of doing something think twice. Come to think of it I really don't like being called a liar. Well, first off your not running this natively on the android platform. Your running it throw VNC with a mirror driver. Which means I now need to have a computer on 24/7, open up some ports, and give it a static dyndns address. Also I clearly stated the platforms for Android a few posts up. Since you didn't take the time to read them I have provided a link to the android site. The Android SDK support Java code natively and some C/C++ code. The Android NDK support C++ code. On your first image you can clearly see something that shouldn't be there near the bottom right corner of the phone. I have attached two pictures of what the generic emulator looks like. http://developer.android.com/sdk/ http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/ With the SDK in hand and about 20 minutes of work on Android VNC Viewer(Open Source). Anyone could achieve what you've show in the image using the emulator and a local vnc server. Granted on anything but a newer phone(i.e. the Galaxy S series) it would run horrible over 3G/4G and going through VNC. As for what "Profession Android Developer" means I develop Android applications here in Dallas for a living. Had you actually installed Debian and then gotten wine working I would give you praise, Debian is the easy part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalsius Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Not trying to hijack, but this isn't so far off. I am currently running Splashtop Remote on mu iPAD over wireless which means I can run the client on a source machine. I can port sound through and the effect is very good, I can play pretty easily although running round stations is hard, the client won't send continuous keypresses through!! Bombing round space is easy enough and I am actually finding it quite easy to sit and do trade runs on the sofa now =] I will be providing some feedback to the developers around the continuous key press option and maybe a better way to control the mouse but its very good so far. I can see how these types of VNC like apps will work on something like the iPad but on a smartphone the screen size might just be too prohibitive.

Mimir[IS] Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) I'm done with this. Believe what you will. But for an initial throw I thought this was pretty good: Proof of concept P.S. It was also said that the encryption for this game could never be broken. --------Edit ------------ LOL I just noticed the audio in the background, at least you can tell it wasnt stop motion, Photoshop, cut and paste.

gerry Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Guys, what's going on here??????? Mimir is just posting something he wants to share with us, no need for trying to blame him.

I have wasted too much time with all of this, and most likely will blow off any additional work on the EnB portion of this app. Interesting that you say you are coding for Verizon? Does Verizon suggest their customers root their phones now? Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
