Play WoW on your phone :)

I will be updating this as soon as there is a tutorial / Guide

Hey guys. (for now, just pics...but tutorial will come later)
I was waiting to post this for a long time, but never had time to compile a guide.
Anyways, I have finally done it. I installed world of Warcraft on my Sony Ericsson cell phone. Model is w810.

I am currently working to make it work on Motorlas (RAZR v3i and other motorolas and some Nokias.

To actually play it, you would need unlimited data package from your cell phone provider.
Otherwise the costs will be insane.

I cant post tutorial now due to not having a video camera, but once i find my webcam, i will record it and show you the tutorial.


IF YOU HAVE SONY ERICSSON W810 AND 2GB MEMORY CARD, THEN YOU ARE READY! Otherwise, you have to wait for tutorials for other models/brands.

Few things to think before you do this:

-Insane data charges if you dont have unlimited data package.
-Can not play in subways or elevators or anywhere else where your cell phone does not work.
- You are limited to only 10 skills (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-0 keypads).
However i think most chars don't need that many skills.
-The speed is god because WoW doesn't require that much of a good conection.
-You can not have macros. I know it sucks but you will have to do without macros.
-And of course no big mods like CT_RA. Only tiny mods which dont require too much power. For example, titan bar = not too big mod...but raid assist is frigging huge.
-You need a cell phone with at least 1.5GB of memory. Most cellphones dont have that much, but that's why there are memory cards. So obviously yourt phone needs to have memory card slot that can support up to 2GB memory (WoW itself takes 1.5GB of data on memory card...so you have 500MB for your cellphone needs like mp3/videos/pics/etc)
-While you play WoW, you can not listen to MP3 player built in your phone. Nor you can take pictures.
-Chatting is hard, but doable...because you have to use cellphone keypad text just like you type text message.
-You CAN NOT change the toolbar icons. Or you can but i havent found a way to. For example, if you want Earth Shock on button 1, you can not change it to button 2 using your cellphone....u have to do it on your comp, and then it will get updated on ur cellphone once you log out.
-QUALITY IS MUCH BETTER THAN ON THESE PICTURES.
I have no other camera at the moment, so i have to use an old crappy cell phone camera to take picture of the main cell phone, and lightning is poor. But quality of the gameplay is much better due to nice quality LCD of Sony Ericssons



Some early pics, will post video later.
And tutorial also. (Please don't PM me and ask to make it work for your specific model of the phone. I cant do that because top actually make it work, i need the phone itself in front of me.) Right now i am working on Motorolla RAZR.


Loading Screen (it loads a bit longer than on desktop, and it lags the same ..just like in Orgrimmar on a real comp.)




1 pic from actual gameplay. This is from WSG match. we won by the way...and id diont lag a bit!
you can se the screen to be vertical like here, or horizontal..but horizontal makes it look weird.
It takes time to get used to playing vertically, but i got used to it and already can do instances which require fast responce times
(there is a 0.5 second delay on all spells...just like u get on regular 56k connection)

Good copy and paste guide (not sarcastic)!

[theillbehaviored]

My WoW folder is 8 gigs how come on cell its only 1.5?

[DLC]

I can't find anything from the site.

Having to install all of WOW onto a flash disk or copy/pasting either sounds iffy.

The environments are so different (example. MAC vs. WINDOWS) I doubt EXE can be run on Mobile like regular PC apps.

Oh well I can dream. GDLUCK with whoever tries this and I surely want to see some working vids of it in action.

This is a big joke ))))))))))))

[j3ytr]

Clearly is a big joke, for one all the opcodes would be completely different and that isnt even taking into account how much weaker the hardware is.

(yes, my first post.)

[XPZaIN]

have tried it before not a joke

[ziao]

great spoof :P
100% that this is fake

[zitronenbaum]

this is not a fake

i always play wow in school when we have mathematics. my sony errics is broken, so i decided switched to play on on the calculator^^

here's a photo if you want to proof it

[Ced]

Ive been doing the same thing Zitronenbaum.. just my HD is a bit full now and my loading of tables is REALLY slow.. since WoW eats all the memory.

An old friend of mine actually got WoW to play on his PDA... soooooo funny when he first did it (won't tell me how to do it ) He used a foldable bluetooth keyboard like this one (not the exact model used)[IMG]http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A9iby4X87DNFqEIBn1ujzbkF;_ylu=X3oDMTA4NDgyNWN0BHNlYwNwcm9m/SIG=12inubdh1/EXP=1161117308/**http%3a//www.theregister.co.uk/2004/06/21/bluetooth_keyboard.jpg[/IMG]

He had the files stored on a mini hard drive (10 gig so it barely fit)(also it used bluetooth) He used his bluetooth phone to get internet access. Like AirForceElite said... slight delay in the cast bar but still fun if ur not a healer :P

it completely worked but it was impossible to read the text in the chat box. But it was usefull for farming stuff during school.

whahahahah playing wow on a calculater with a processing speed of .005 MHz, no graphics card, not even a color display, a resolution of 100x50.. just.. LOL!

omg a phone has a average speed of maybe 50 MHz, WOW requires 800 MHz

# Windows® 2000/XP
# Intel Pentium® III 800 MHz or AMD Athlon 800 MHz
# 512 MB RAM
# 32 MB 3D graphics card with Hardware Transform and Lighting, such as an NVIDIA® GeForce™ 2 class card or above
# DirectX® 9.0c (included) and latest video drivers
# 6.0 GB available HD space
# 4x CD-ROM drive
# 56k or better Internet connection

1.5gig? how?
no 3drendering?

yea whatever. if anybody believes this youre seriously a retard. If you are ever planning a spoof like this again, atleast take a PDA, would be a little more believeable

hehe, That was the point, Just to sort out the men from the boys, If any one thinks this might be possible on a phone.....Jesus...(That was the point in using a phone as an example.)

All credit still goes to AFE

Just to Clarify, this is a spoof, my thinking is that he uploaded the screen shots onto his phone?

[ziao]

either that, or photoshop. anyway its a terrible spoof, really it sucks.. try something better, something more believeable
