Aman's Rush Hour

Aman's Rush HourSkateboarding burger and pizza delivery person game. Jump, go under and avoid obstacles.

Publisher's description: "Aman is a skate boy, skating is all his life. In order to get him a stylish new skateboard, Aman needs to make some money. Eventually he gets a job in BurgerWin, a take-away food restaurant. Things are not that easy! Aman should be faster than Jack who works in Foodfast across the street, to get money from the customers. What's more, you should be careful! Mr.Jackson's dog stares at the pizza in your hand every day. To save time, you always choose to go through the subway as the short-cut. You are lucky last time, but what about this time? Cop is smart and it may hides somewhere waiting for you to come! The phone is ringing, your boss hand the burger to you?"

Keys: 1,2, 3, Up = Jump Up; Fire, 4, 5, 6 = Jump Out; Down, 4, 5, 6 = Lower Aman's head.

iDEN phones: The OK button doesn't work and the softkeys are mapped wrong. Use the Call key as OK, use the right softkey as the left soft key, use the menu key as the right soft key.

CDMA phones: The soft keys don't work on the Motorola Rambler and probably other CDMA phones. If you get stuck in the options or high score menus, press the end call key and then  choose "No" at the  "Do you want to exit?" prompt to go back to the game's main menu.

Skype

This is the official Skype mobile Java app. It was discontinued in 2010 and is no longer supported, but it still works. At least the Chat (IM) part does.

At this point it's only been confirmed to work on the Sanyo Incognito. It loads on my Motorola i776 and Motorola Rambler but I can't get past the initial screen where you select your language. I can highlight English but none of the keys let me accept my selection and move to the next screen. BoostApps user Vintage Stephan tested  it on his Incognito and reports that it works perfectly for Skype IM, but he hasn't been able to get the voice calling feature working.

The way this app is supposed to work for voice calls is that it calls a US number to connect to the Skype network rather than using a data connection. So if you aren't on the unlimited plan, calls will not be free, even to Skype numbers.  Skype Lite is mainly useful for Skype IM and, if the calling feature would work, for cheap international calling. You are supposed to be able to make calls to Skype numbers anywhere in the world for the cost of a local call.   Skype IM is fully supported and uses only data.

I suspect this app will work on other Sanyo phones and possibly other non-Motorola phones. If you try it on any phone other than the Incognito, please leave a comment letting other users if it works.

Pokemon Gold

MEBoy emulator with Pokemon Gold GameBoy  color ROM. Tested on a Sanyo Incognito by GhOsToFwAr who reports that it's a little slow but playable. Doesn't run on the Motorola Rambler.

It installs and runs on a Motorola i776 but is too slow to be usable. It will probably work well on more powerful iDEN phones like the i9 and i856.  If you try it on a different phone please leave a comment saying whether it works or not so I can update the supported phones list.

When the app starts choose the game and then press the softkey labeled Menu and choose Set buttons  to set up the keys you want to use.

Nimbuzz 1.9.5

A new version (1.95) of the Nimbuzz instant messaging app has been released. According to Nimbuzz, the new features in this release are:

  • Fixed a few bugs
  • Improved support for Nokia Touch & Type devices
  • Improved overall performance
  • Nimbuzz Ping phone Number Verification (PNV)
  • Better N-World Connectivity
Nimbuzz 1.9.5 runs pretty well on my Motorola Rambler but there are some serious key mapping issues.  The left softkey action is mapped to the right softkey. I can adapt to that but the right softkey is mapped to nothing which is not good as it's used as the Cancel key and to return from menus and chats. This version gets a Class Verification error anf fails to install on my Motorola i776 iDEN phone.

Arkanoid

Arkanoid

An excellent freeware version of the classic breakout game Arkanoid. Ran well on both the Motorola i776 and the Motorola Rambler. Requires a 176x220 px or larger screen so it wasn't very playable on the 128 x1 60 i776 as the bottom of the screen was cut off hiding the paddle.

Keys left, right = move paddle; up = next ball; # = pause/resume; when paused, press the left soft key  for high scores and main menu.

Dweller RPG

Publisher's description: "Dweller is a fantasy roguelike/rpg made specifically for handheld devices. Explore randomly created dungeons and caves. Play three different character classes. Fight many kinds of monsters. Discover ancient artifacts.
DONATE If you enjoy the game and would like to support development please use the Donation link in the main menu or via the home page www.dwellergame.com"

Runs on both my test phones. On a Motorola Rambler startup takes a while but the game runs quickly. On a Motorola i776 to game is playable but very slow. It would probably run well on the i9, i856 and most of the CDMA phones which all have faster processors and more heap memory

Keys: *=Menu; #=Inventory; 0=enable Targeting Mode. On iDEN phones the OK key does not work, use Call or 5 as OK
