Help Angry Birds

I didn't think I'd need to. Wonder if I did something wrong. Everything else seems to be working. If I'm bored at work tomorrow maybe I'll try it again.
Just for fun I redid everything this morning. Still had to apply those gl drivers.
Also had the DJ07 update popup at just the wrong time while I was reinstalling everything from the Market. I'm still trying to remember 3 or 4 apps that were in the Download list when the update prompt popped up right under my finger just as I was about to press on one, and when I tried backing out of the update I was back on the home screen and my download list had been updated to show only those apps I had just installed. Jerks.

use the GL drivers from samdroid - basically, you need to replace your /system/lib/egl/libGLESv1_CM_fimg.so file and those brown textures will appear.

edit: this update.zip worked for me: New 3D graphics driver (Released!)

I have the Amstel ROM. Do I need to take this gl.zip and rename it Update.zip and apply it from recovery?

I didn't rename it, just applied gl.zip through "Recovery-Apply zip from SD card". Actually, that was the second time around, after Recovery had added that sdx folder to the Sd card and moved gl.zip and the 1.9.3 ROM to it. The first time around I used "File browser" to find gl.zip in my downloads folder and applied it from there.

I did notice that the ground isn't really textured, just dark brown, and I'm seeing stuff in the background through it, but it's better than the white on white from before.

I have the moment on 2.1, with meatkernel v2. Initially I had the same white on white problems many of you have been speaking of. After the install of the gl drivers linked to by chibucks, much of the background has shown up. Not quite as it is in the videos and tutorials, but enough to get by. I honestly dont believe it matters what kernel, rom, or theme you're using as long as you have the "right" gl drivers installed. Now, I think some of the roms and such already have the "right" drivers installed so depending on that, you might not need to install them after a flash. Downside of the gl driver update is that the 3d gallery no longer works. But hey, at least can play a game. :p

@jeper, I haven't beaten Big Setup and I also dont have that level. If I'm interpreting this:Angry Birds Episodes - 4. The Big Setup right, it will come in an update at some time.

@samaruf, no need to rename the zip file, just apply in recovery.

I am going to add on to this then start a new thread.

I can't install Angry Birds. I have tried all the links, QR Tags, getjar site and all have failed.
The links and tags bring me to market where is says it can't be found. The GetJar site lets me download, but when trying to install says I am out of space to display, even tho I have about 40mb space left.

Any ideas?

I had the same issue, I have been running interceptor rom and switched today to DF Remix 4.0 and it showed up in the market instantly.

I downloaded the .apk from the link in the thread at SDX and put it on the sd card and installed it manually using OI File Manager. Worked like a charm.

It's weird you can't find it in the market. Are you running stock 2.1 or are you rooted?
Maybe you can try temporarily deleting some apps to make room, then reinstall them after Angry Birds is installed.

I'm just rooted enough to remove stock apps I don't like, other then that its stock.

I did remove 2 of the larger apps I have and still no luck. I was able to download and play it before flashing to DI06. I removed it hoping to finally get it from the market (to be told when it updated), then this happened.

I'll Try finding the links in SDX and give it a try.

Just got an email from Rovio announcing an update that among other things fixes white textures on certain devices. Moment maybe? Don't know, and after reading comments about the new intrusive ads that come with this update (covers part of the screen during gameplay?), I don't think I'll be finding out. I can't put my phone in airplane mode just to avoid ads every time I want to play a game.

I suppose I'll just live with the plain brown squares for the ground that the gl drivers I installed give me.

I got the e-mail too and installed the new release. Didn't read anything about the ads, although, I have ad blocker. I couldn't install right away as it said I didn't have enough memory. I uninstalled the older version and was then able to install the new release. Bummed out that I have to start all over again as it apparently didn't save anything in the SD card from the last install.

I wouldn't worry about the ads in the latest update...I'd worry more about the fact that it runs so slow on the Moment now that it isn't playable. Graphics look better...but it does little good if you can't play the game.
I was going to test it out on The Wife's Moment (she doesn't play it anyway), but after hearing this I'll wait to see if there's another update.

The update made this so much worse on the moment. Please do not update. Your better offer installing the GL drivers lnked above.

I did send an email to the developer asking for help. I suggest anyone who got the update do this as well. Maybe we can get them to resolve it. Has anyone with the GL drivers doen the update and still have the same speed issues?

I am having NO issues with the update. I have the updated GL drivers.
