Hey guys, I know you'll tell me to search, but I've searched all of the boards for the HTC Touch Pro, Diamond, and even the Tilt and I simply can't find an emulator that actually works right on my HTC Touch Pro. Here's what I've tried:
PocketSNES 1.12.200 - Freezes when I load a rom.
PocketSNES 1.53 - Glitches on basically every single rom or crashes.
Morphgear 2.4.0.9 - Extremely tiny and the menu glitches in landscape mode.
Can someone please tell me what emulators and what versions they're using? I'm having the worst time finding a practical emulator that works on the HTC Touch Pro.
Thanks in advance.
Update
Best version of PocketSNES for the Touch Pro (thanks Snakie): n0p's PocketSNES WM5,VGA-compatible Build (02.02.07)
Fix for mapping the hardware keyboard keys (thanks Dilta): Dilta's KforTouchPro 1.0.0.3
have you searched here? i think not, theres a few thread around
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php
Thanks for your helpful reply, Brendo! However, I searched this entire forum and tried different versions of emulators as recommended for hours upon hours. All I see are people saying it works, while not really giving specific information on how to get it going. And the ones that do give specific information don't even come close to how they describe it.
Can anyone who's got an SNES emulator to run on the HTC Touch Pro please respond?
in for someone who has an answer cause i cannot find one either
I've also looked around for a few hours and wasn't able to find anything that worked. I found one called smartgear(2577) which looked promising but it doesn't recognize the .smc filetype yet. Hopefully someone here knows of one that will work well with our Touch Pros.
is it true that morphgear is freeware? the version I got expires after 5 minutes of play
the one found here is working on my Sprint TP
http://n0p.tonych.info/?PocketSNES
I dl'd the "WM5,VGA-compatible Build (02.02.07)" file
extracted the contents and copied them over to my storage card.
I had to make sure all my roms had the .smc extension for the program to see them.
Am I correct in guessing that that famous emulator is slow as heck on our Touch Pro's?
I'd used the QVGA version with my 624mhz 6700 (oc'ed) and it was barely playable. I've since given up on a playable version of windows mobile snes.
Someone earlier had suggested there was a SNES version for the Diamond that used opengl drivers - and thus would be faster, but I haven't seen it anywhere.
Thanks for the n0p one. I just tried it out and it's the most usable one I've come across. Although i wish the button mapping would work with the slide-out keyboard. Almost every button I try to assign is set to "0x5e" regardless of the letter pressed on the keyboard. I'm also using Sprint.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2850031
I gotta try these because I need my emulation.
I looked into that other forum, morphgear was already listed and doesn't work well at all. All the pocketsnes verisons are pretty iffy as well, the best imo is the n0p verison although that isn't spectacular either. I wish there was something else out there..

Thanks for the specifics, Snakies. I remember trying this one but I had it in a weird video mode that was glitchy (Landscape right stretched) and figured the emulator was just messed up. But if I run it in normal Landscape Right it works like a charm. Thanks for the confirmation!
Also, to someone who posted in here earlier, there's a post that has a program for the TP that temporarily changes the input mode on the keyboard to make it compatible with older Pocket PC apps. Here's the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791652&postcount=36
So Snaky, can you share what settings your using? I'm using the defaults with Landscape Right and it works well, but I'd like to get rid of that controller skin on the side if possible.
Awesome! Thank you
this version of snes emulator is much better than before.... but its still... super slow and laggy. is it running perfectly for anyone? if so, what are your settings?
It runs very well for me. Just be sure to disable sound. Now what i am really curious about is if anyone has gotten the gba emulator to run at decent speeds
The link is dead for "n0p's PocketSNES WM5,VGA-compatible Build (02.02.07)" that was recommended in the first post & by Snakie.
Can someone share this file or perhaps an updated link ?
Thanks.
Currenly I'm using Morphgear but the performance is not great. Would like to try this.
Can someone please send me nops snes emulator? the link doesnt work. Im not sure what version I have but when I load a rom it all freezes and nothing happens. The link is down and Ive tried googling for the emulator and they all refer to the same link, I even tried rapidshare and torrents and Im getting nothing.

These are a few non-working apps I discovered when trying to customise my TD2 on day one.
1) HTC's gprs monitor refuses to install.
2) Core player exits on installation complaining about a "problem". - NOW FIXED
3) I already mentioned Tomtom6 on another thread.
Anyone found any others?

As I've seen coreplayer showing video on the Diamond2 in one of the reviews I'd say that something has gone wrong during your customisation.
Core player 1.3 work perfectly on my Diamond 2 !!!!
A problem has occurred with player.exe
Please tell Microsoft about this problem.
That's what happens when I run the program. It installs and appears in the program list but just won't run. I can't tell you what version it was either.
Maybe I should try a different version.
After a hard reset and direct install onto the device from a cab file I can now confirm that Coreplayer 1.3 does work very well on the D2. I have amended my original post. Thanks.
CoPilot Live 7 HTC Touch Diamond Edition does not work with TD2 and CoPilot support phone number is useless for any help.

There is a new updated version of Co-Pilot specifically for the Diamond2, phone technical support on 0871 6412 540 (in the UK) and ask them for the download link, I did and my Co-Pilot is working ok.
If you try and load the D1 version you wont see many of the graphics on the screen, to get round this you can try using a non HTC old version and use the cab file from that, you should be able to find one floating around somewhere. The graphics are still not correct using the old generic cab but its usable.
Thanks for the reply and I did contact them and was given a link to the Diamond 2 program and it works ok.

Can you let me know what that version is? Im running 7.7.0.134 (full version with SD card etc, not Diamond version - which I think is the same but just comes without SD card and CoPilot Central PC app) but thats been the "latest" for nearly a year. Does this "new" version support the 480x800 resolution correctly.
It runs fine, just that the onscreen keys etc appear squashed.
Be grateful if you could let me know.
I just got the latest download v7.8.0.162 from them two days ago and was told by there sales person that the only thing that does not work is the TD2 Zoom Bar.
I have tested the program and it runs very smooth
How does this compare feature-wise to the TomTom mentioned in other threads for the TD2?
Co-Pilot
The version I am running is 7.8.0.162 Data NAVTEQ.EU 07Q3. v7.1.13.1.5, my understanding is that it has a higher screen resolution than the old Diamond 1 version, the menu system is a bit different. I think this version new will also run on the Touch HD.
I was told by Co-Pilot technical support that version 8 is on the horizon and will be out later this year.

In my opinion Co-Pilot is the better choice, for example you can specify the sort of road preferences you would normally drive on for each sort of road and enter the average speed you drive at to create a user profile that is normally quite accurate, there is a better zooming facility on Co P and I usually drive with the screen zoomed out so i can see all the small roads and villages around my route.

Worked for me, but just a little slow, and the controls don't really work without a dpad. What ROM are you running and what error did it give you?

how did you manage to get it working? and running which game? i tried metal slug X , because its a small (64mb) but it crashes immediately when i click the .bin file.
I put my bios in my bios folder, my games in the iso folder, and it worked
Can You share Your bios file and what game are You running?
Running FF7(great game btw) and I would love to share the BIOS files, but that is sadly illegal. Search around the nets, and you will easily find them. Or you can dump the bios from your playstation if you have one. I tried that once, and it went wrong, it isn't an easy procedure
Hi guys. I just see that excelent program. I dint imagine that exist. The problem is that i dont know how to make it work. What i have to download and how i will make it work? i have the htc blackstone, with this rom RUU_Duttys_HD_WM6.5_Leo_Holy_Grail_R0. Can you help me please????
i am having a problem too when i try to run it..it says that i need mmore than 16mb of ram to run it but nothing else is running.
any one any ideas
@ jonathanfoster
Maybe the game that you are trying to open is to large, try a different one. If not, try using a different bios if possible. If that doesn't work, try a different version, or maybe the game is bad
@ nikosfa
Bios goes in bios folder. .iso and .bin games go in games folder. click on the executable from the device, and done.
I couldn't get version 0.9.5 working so I downloaded newest 0.9.6 beta of the emulator. Digimon World 1 and 3 ran almost perfectly... just little fps drop in fights. I also tried Gran Turismo and it was very playable.
i cant use the directional pad because its going to the left even without touching it
hi lads. can someone explane step by step haw to EnableHLE=off and use bios file. thanks
ups sorry wrong section
Just want to say thanks schtruck.
I'm enjoying fpse since the release date.
All the ui option and gfx- game fixes are most appreciateed.
The latest version with screen positioning and pad positioning
is awsome on my desire HD.
Catch ya later.
FPse is the best emulator there is and 2,99 is really no money. Tried like 20 games, all work super well!!
hi ppl ive just been messing around with the new Fpsece emulator for the hd2, however when i try to play metal gear solid i get the sound consistantly looping. On top of that the game seems to be running extra fast.
Has anyone had similar problems and if so is there a fix for it?
thanks in advance
i have metal gear solid here but i didnt make it a pocketiso rom so far. go check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606698 sooner or later i will post a video about that game aswell. for the sound issue go check fpsece forum ... there are tons of threads about that
yh ive tryed some of there suggestions with no luck. Im also using an uncompressed version. What settings and plugins did u use to get the game running smoothly?
LastSPU=0peopspu109.dll => remove the 0
and try
EnableHLE=off => ON
RunSPUsync=off => ON
UseOtherMDEC=off => ON
Please try the one after the other, not all of them at the same time, if it changes nothing for MGS, PLEASE SET BACK THE ORIGINAL VALUE or it may crash many other games
One of these tricks is supposed to be the good one for MGS
tryed this several times , no luck
anyone got any other ideas?
Hmmm....now that I have an HD2, I'll check it out, this game is particularly hard to run, but I got it working under Schtruck instructions, so ut's possible, I now have to remember the correct settings
thanks i900frenchaddict, i look forward to ur update
i know this post is old as hell but... it seems people still have trouble with mgs on hd2.
so so... heres a lil help which WILL HELP YOU for sure.
this is for 0.11 supporter version of the emulator so don't ask me about official 0.10.
1) run one time Metal Gear Solid
2) select in menu option External SPU and SPUsync.
3) Exit
4) open the ini file of MetalGear Solid into CFG directory
5) at the bottom of the file is the config of PEOPSU, configure like that:
[SPUPeops]
UseXA=1
Volume=1
XAPitch=0
UseTimer=2
SPUIRQWait=1
DebugMode=0
RecordMode=0
UseReverb=0
UseInterpolation=0
DisStereo=0
UseDBufIrq=0
Don't forget to download and install new core package which is linked into the email you received. it include the last version of peopspu109.dll.
Now you can run perfectly with MetalGear Solid, use Overclock function to get good speed.
(copied this tip from official fpsece forums, posted by "schtruck" himself)
So MGS runs just fine. k? =)
cheers!
finally, confirmed working perfectly no sound or video bugs thanks for the info.
I'm currently running Fireburned's WM 6.5 v3.1 ROM, which i have found to be pretty good overall, far better than the stock 6.0, but i tried to install Meboy 2.2 the other day and could getting a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException error. looking it up on the internet i found this was because the esmertrc java doesnt support the bluetooth transfer within java: is there any way to update the java program? Is this fixed inside the ROM, or can it be updated from a .cab file?
also i tried to install the MEBoy 1.6 version, which didnt ave any bluetooth features so was unsupported, and this installed fine, but when playing any games the characters flickered on screen, which made it almost unplayable. has anyone else had the same issue/ found a fix?
oh also im using JMEboy right now, again an older version without the bluetooth support. this one doesnt flicker but fails to load the image for certain games, is this because its too low on RAM maybe? its a good emulator otherwise
need a working java cab for meboy 2.2 to work
im hjaving the same problem some people got it work but one share info i been doing alogt googling still aint find a fix i tired every jbed prog i have a sch-i220 in a 8gb memory card can some one help us i wont to play pokemon with sound with memboy 2.2 but i have jbed with working pokemon meboy 1.1 but has no sound on that version only meboy 2.2 suport sound if someone no a working java prog can u please post cab or url
ok so i was now using MEBoy 1.6 today and it worked fine for most of the time, only seemed to flicker for a while after suspending the game
Apologies if this has already been asked, but I did do a search and didn't find much - I have both fpse and psx4droid, but I cannot get either of them to load a ROM.
I've tried ROMs I've created myself from old Playstation discs I still have lying around the house, and when those didn't work I downloaded a couple and couldn't get those to work either. psx4droid just won't load the ROMs, and fpse crashes all the time, sometimes when changing settings, mostly when trying to load ROMs.
Has anyone got either of these two programs to work on their Transformer yet? If so, what settings do you have?
Thanks a lot!
I guess it's a Honeycomb thing. FPSE works fine on my G Tablet.
EDIT: Then again maybe not:
http://technidroid.com/2011/04/08/fpse-working-great-on-honeycomb/
It might be a honeycomb thing, but both fpse and psx4droid are listed in the compatible honeycomb apps thread, so someone somewhere must have them working!
EDIT: I have posted a comment there asking, thanks. I guess the question is what Tablet they got fpse working on, and whether it was a Transformer! Fpse crashes like crazy on mine, often when just trying to do simple things, like open the settings.
EDIT2: Got this working. I completely uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and moved the bios file and roms to a folder on the a 16gb micro SD card. All works wonderfully now! I also have the first three graphics options selected, hope this helps anyone in the position I was in!
