The latest update to the original Angry Birds (v1.6.2) is now available for iOS and Android via the Android Marketplace and Amazon Appstore. More platforms should be getting the update soon. This update includes chapter 16 of Mine And Dine (links to the original trailer).
In addition, we know this update includes:
- Rovio says that this update fixes the loading issue once and for all!
- 15 new levels within chapter 16
- There is at least one new Golden Egg. Checkout our Complete Golden Eggs Guide for the location and walkthrough.
- Additional achievements. No word yet on if the achievement bugs have been fixed, but we’ll try and confirm
- The minimum 3 star score on level 3-5 has been changed back (it was raised in the last update, but that was likely a mistake).
Below are some helpful links:
- The Angry Birds and Golden Eggs leaderboards.
- 3 star walkthrough are ready to help you!
- A breakdown of all the achievements available in Angry Birds.
Hooray!
Yes! Found the Golden Egg on the top right of level 16-9…use the yellow bird in an arc shot.
I didn’t have much in the way of loading issues (just a little slower), but it does seem to be faster with this update.
FYI If you are using Iphone (verizon) it has a new software update which may help
So far Ch. 16 has been a good blend of easier levels where you can get high scores and harder levels that challenge you. I am anxious to see the Leaderboard for these levels and see what all the other AB fans have achieved. Nice job to Rovio for all the great releases recently!!!
I agree. BTW, the leaderboard is ready.
Thanks Bird Leader! And in case you’ve never been told by anyone, “Thank you” for such a great site!
Mine and Dine Chapter 16 update not available on Amazon Appstore. The update will probably arrive tomorrow by noon.
Just checked Amazon for the update, which as of the time stamp of this post still hasn’t hit yet. Perhaps tomorrow….
Sigh, still no tracker for Smash Maniac.
Still lack of logic checks on achievements you clearly should have such as the 50 feather achievement when you have both 100 and 200 feather achievements.
Levels were fun though.
It’s very nice that there are updates coming for iOS and Android, but I’m playing the PC version. Does anyone know when the Mine and dine update for pc will be released? Also am I with AB Rio on pc still waiting for the Carnival update.
I hate to say anything negative about Rovio, but I agree that PC/Mac are overdue for an update. We hope it lands soon.
I totally agree!!
Well, no symbian….Pff is the reason that i want to get an Android or iOS phone soon.
Chapter 16 had some really hard levels, and I’m glad given how easy it was to get three stars on every level of Summer Pignic.
Agreed — after the relative ease for much of Seasons Pignic, the second set for Mine and Dine has been a bit more challenging. Yay!
Although to be fair I did rack up a really ridiculous score on Pignic, and my Mine & Dine score has been upped to over 3.5 million.
It just appeared in my Amazon Apps! Downloading now!
… or maybe not? I just downloaded AN update for Angry Birds, butt my Chapter 16 is still the “Coming Soon!” screen.
Do any of you know what that might be about?
If it’s v1.6.0 or v1.6.1 then that is the previous update. v1.6.2 is the new one. I don’t believe it’s up on Amazon yet, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it were.
Ooooh… I just checked my settings and its v1.6.1. I would have thought I had that already.
I get the new update. Something is wrong with iTunes
Apple seems to be having some server issues. Just give it a bit.
Finally, my game is updating and Im ready to travel deeper into the mine
iTunes won’t connect??
Yeah, I think Apple is having some issues right now. It’ll likely pass soon, just give it a few.
How do you guys make those walkthroughs? I just saw golden egg #24 walkthrough video and I knew it was on the iPad. Is their a way to record things on my phone without jail breaking it?
You would need FujiToast to tell you that, but as far as I know, jailbreak is necessary for video capture. Good observation that the new videos are iPad: The jailbreak for iPad2 just came out a week or two ago.
Wow, and I heard that the iPad was supposed to be jail-broken free.
iPad 2 does support video out, though the set up is expensive and cumbersome, so using the jailbreak is preferred. Jailbreak is the only way for every other iOS device.
Are you able to jailbreak the iPad for flash?
Yes, I believe so (tutorial).
Are you saying you support illegal activities?
Name one illegal activity being mentioned above??
Yes, although the word “jail” is part of the word “jailbreak”, there is nothing illegal about jailbreaking an iPhone or iPad — at least in the US (much to Apple’s dismay).
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/07/feds-ok-iphone-jailbreaking/
We definitely don’t condone illegal activities and I think our track record here affirms that. But as ChaosTsar mentioned, jailbreaking is completely legal.
How come its not showing up on my android market updates?
The post says that the update landed on iOS, and a user commented that it landed for Android via Amazon. We haven’t heard if it landed for Market yet. Should be soon.
For Android, the Mine and Dine update (v 1.6.2) will not show up until around lunchtime and updates usually take 2-3 days to process to Amazon Appstore and the Android Market.
Lunchtime for WHO?
/I’m hungry.
What I mean is that the updates for Angry Birds (seasons, rio, and original) usually come around noon.
Understood, but Jody is asking “noon for who”? As in, noon for the US or noon for Europe.
US
Also, I’m on the east coast. Is it noon for me or noon at Amazon’s headquarters in Seattle?
I live in the east coast as well. It’s noon for Amazon in Seattle which is 3:00 pm on the east coast.
This update seems to have fixed the loading issues that the two previous versions had. For me anyway. Thanks Rovio.
Anyone know what the feathers mean.
Yes, you receive a feather after achieving Total Destruction with the Mighty Eagle. The Mighty Eagle is currently only available to purchase on iOS devices.
And nook color in the bn store
Actually, I said “purchase” specifically for that reason. Yes, you can use the Mighty Eagle on NOOK Color while at a Barnes & Noble, but you can’t purchase it. For now tt goes away as soon as you leave.
Oh. I didnt realize that
Does somebody know what the update for Angry Bird Free is suppose to do?
It said it fixed the loading issue… i didnt know free had had a loading issue
Original AB update is overdue for PC. I’m on 1.5.1 ugh n chapter 14 still say comning soon….. hope it lands soon!!
We all do.
It’s 2:30 central time….so thats past noon for the whole country now….still no update for Android
Still waiting for Angry Birds and Angry Birds Rio updates and the Angry Birds Seasons for PC.
I tired downloading the update on my iPhone…it crashed and my iPhone rejected it, still waiting for the update to work! My internet is fine…I don’t know what the problem is. I rebooted 3 times. Ugh. :(
Have you tried downloading the update via iTunes?
Not yet. I’ll try it. thanks for the tip. ;)
FINNALLY!!!! Got smash maniac on this level! That was very long! So happy!
Congrats!
The new golden egg is golden egg 24.You’ll find it at level 16-9.Little tip:on the most top shelf.I use yellow bird(s)!
To get the star just use the yellow birds to cut through all the three ropes and wait for a several minutes.Done!
Why is it that they don’t put the Android update out at the same time as iOS devices?? Its ridiculous!
Updates are sent to app stores by Rovio simultaneously. How long it takes for a particular store to approve the app is not Rovio’s issue.
Well what ever it is it’s still annoying!!
Please be mindful of your language. Your post has been edited to remove the language.
I believe your concern is better directed to Android, not Rovio. They send out updates as soon as they are ready. They aren’t biased towards iOS or against Android. It just takes time for updates to be approved. Sometimes it takes longer than others.
Yes! Update is out on android market! Yay! :D
Thanks for the heads up. We’ve updated the post!
I have AB on auto update for android marketplace and have not got an update. Try to do it manually as well. No update on marketplace yet that I can find.
I’m not sure what to tell you. Perhaps this direct link will help you out, but the update has definitely landed for Market.
Thanks that worked great. Not sure why it did not update automatically. No time to figure that out now. More levels to destroy.
This sucks. Any news on a fix from rovio if uv lost ur game progress with original AB. After syncing mine iv lost all progress and have to play thru all 5 updates again which I’d 3 starred to play the latest update. Seasons and rio are fine tho?
Anything. Iv also emailed u guys to send me a copy of the .lua. Files but aint had them yet or would these not work with the iPhone? iPad only?
Missed your email. They have been sent. Works for all iOS devices, not just iPad.
When I try to install the new update I receive the message “couldn’t install on USB storage or SD” I read to remove the SD card and then install but I feel like this would make me restart completely. can someone help?
You need enough space on your device (phone/PC) in order for the update to install on the USB/SD storage
I think you can also move the app to phone space for the update, then move it back to SD
Moving it to my phone worked! Thank you so much!
hehe – AN Angry Birds update just appeared in my Amazon App store, but I’m not going to assume anything until after I download it. =P
(and why yes it was chapter 16!)
But have you been able to download it yet? I see it in Amazon as well, but for some reason I can’t download it.
It downloaded fine for me! Maybe if you refresh your apps?
Monkeyed a bit with the controls and now I got it. Fifteen new levels.. fun time starts now…
There’s a bug on my iPod. There isn’t mine and dine on angry birds for my iPod.
You should see the v1.6.2 update if you check the AppStore.
I done the only thing. There’s no matches. Is there anything to get Mine and Dine BIrd Leader?
If you can’t update through the App Store then I’m honestly not sure what to say. That would be an issue you’d have to contact Apple about.
