Hi all!
So how is the emulator scene with this thing? I just saw some videos on youtube and was blown away.
I was recently dissapointed that I could not get a HD2 due to the 3g not working with ATT but this Galaxy is WOW...
I am hoping that PS1 emulation and maybe even Commodore Amiga is working

there's a vid in this forum (Captivate general) showing the ps1 emulation of FF7.
I'm not sure about emulator, I WANT TO DOWNLOAD IT, but i'm too lazy ha. Gameboid emulator's creator has fixed the crash so we can use that too. There are around 5? emulators out there so it's WONDERFUL for gaming.
I just switched from a Tilt2 also ... I thought I would miss the keyboard but not missing it at all.
There are several emulators available in the android marketplace, NES, SNES, GENESIS, PS1, XBOX and those are just what I remember. I haven't played with any of them yet, but I do recall that some had issues on the Captivate from reading comments. I wouldn't fret though, this phone is new and with it being seeded (in one form or another) on every carrier on the planet I'm sure issues will be worked out fairly quickly. With the Galaxy S also having a GPU I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Galaxy S specific emulators which take advantage of it.
That phone has me really pumped up...everything I see and read about it seems to be awesome...I may wait a little longer so that more hacks and stuff is out but I think I can upgrade for like $160 so that may be too tempting
I switched from a tilt 2 and will never look back. That thing is a complete piece f crap compared to this. The hardware was OK, but the aging pos windows mobile (even rommed to the Max) sucked.

Ive been playing a ton SNES roms on my Captivate. The emulation on this phone is great.

Gameboy advanced roms here so far, I will be getting an SNES and possibly PS1 emulator when I am not lazy enough. GBA games FLY on this bad boy, especially compared to my old original Tilt.
Guys you are killing me.
BTW, I saw it on the Walmart online cellphone store and according to it , I can get the upgrade for $99...what would be just TOO awesome.
Heck I can probably sell my wife Samsung Eternity and not have to spend much to upgrade then my wife gets my Tilt2 of course...in case I decided to go back to it lol
Hi everyone. I have a 4 year old who keeps taking my phone and my kids (his older brother and sister) ipod touches. He uses them to play games and go on youtube. I've been looking online for a cheap tablet for him to have and on craigslist there are a few for sale in my area for anywhere from $75-$100. I want to know if anyone has any experience with these cheaper android tabs. There's one by Sylvania and some others that just say ePad.
Does anyone have any experience with these and if so, do you think it will be ok for a 4 year old? Keep in mind, it doesn't have to be anything special. Just something that can play youtube and games like angry birds.
Any information is appreciated.

Well you'd probably be best googling the models and seeing if they are real. I had a friend who got a fake off ebay. They work alright. Not great for myself. But if they are a proper tablet I don't see you having any problem as long as its not a scam haha

Hmm just had a quick Google of the sylviana branded tablet you mentioned and from what I read it seems to function alright. Some are having problems but seems to be functional haha. Sorry if its what you already know

A scam on craigslist? Never.
Being serious though, I did do some searching on google and with the information I got it figured it would be better to come ask the experts. I really dont care about the software that's installed on these tabs as long as they can be rooted and/or have access to the android market. Its just more important to me that they run decently. They are not very expensive but it's still money and I would like to know what I'm getting into.

Hey,
I was recently setting up a home network for a co-worker and she "paid" me by giving me a White 7" Pandigital Novel "eReader". Its android based and from what I can tell it can be rooted and used as a low cost alternative to an Android tablet. They sell for as low as $100. I haven't decided what I'm going to do with my own since I just got a HTC Inspire 4G...
Guess I can try and hack it. I can let you know how well it takes being rooted.
Please do let me know. I would really appreciate it.

Hey,
Sorry for the delay but I got a little busy with school. I was able to sit down for a bit with the White Pan digital Novel and I must say I was impressed. Due to the extremely low cost and decent spec of this machine it has gotten a lot of love from developers. Its extremely easy to flash ROM's for root access (just place .ZIP on SDCARD, remove internal SD, boot to recovery, and flash it). The guys over at Slatedroid even put Cyanogenmod 6.x on it.
I tested a number of ROM's but most had weird issues. The Slatedriod Cyanogenmod 6.x ROM actually only ran crisp (for now) in landscape mode. Its a bit too weak to play games from Android Market and that's assuming the the ROM you choose has a working Market (most don't by default). They used a mod called the non-ugly hack to fix this I think. Another issue with a lot of these ROM's involved the wifi going into a infinite loop, repeatedly turning itself on and off. Despite the fact that I love Cyanogenmon on my Optimus V, I had to find another full time ROM.
That's when I stumbled across an Eclair-based ROM ported from teh popular Cruz Reader. It was awesome. Smooth in all view modes and even video ran great on the thing. I haven't attempted to OC the device yet, but I would assume it would only make it better. This ROM is rooted of course, and had a working Android Market (and Cruz Market) installed from the start. With this ROM the device becomes a comparable tablet, far exceeding the value placed on its tag. Just use regular apps to manage the power usage and overclock it with Set CPU or something and you'll have quite a machine for $50 something .
A big downside is that for an "eReader" the battery life was horrid, a little better than an android phone (and that's even with the stock ROM). You are going to have to hack this thing to get any decent performance out of it as the stock ROM is laggy. The rooting worked for fixing a lot of these issues.
Em still a bit unfamiliar with the rules on posting links to other forums here, so I wont. Let me know if you have any questions on need the links and we'll set up some sort of arrangement.
Thanks for that info. Gives me a lot to consider. I may end up getting one of those units.

hey guys i just got my Commando and rooted it with SOC. Now that that's done, i'd really like to put a diff rom on it, but havent had any luck finding one. Cyanogen is a no go. Is there any talk of Commando support on here? (I used the search, only found a few threads that don't really go in depth, and no section for the Commando itself.)
Thanks guys and you got some great forums here.
roms for commando on super one click
Yes on roms please. I know one of you super geniuses out there can develop one for S.O.C.
C'mon, let me have an indestructible cool phone!
I agree, this phone needs some serious development. It's the perfect phone for those of us that work/play in rugged outdoor environments but it's gonna take some serious tweaks to satisfy us gadget heads with it's sorely under-powered processor specs.
The trick might be to try and figure out who manufactured this device for Casio....Is it just a HTC device with a fancy suit? If so then maybe some of the ROM's for that brand would work...My guess is that it's just another phone that's been repackaged in a rugged shell. Anyone have any ideas?
from what I heard it was hitachi
Getitnowmarketing has posted a customy recovery for the Commando over on androidforums. I have installed it and it works. What is going to be a problem is that there is no way to boot into recovery from off. You have to call recovery from terminal emulator or from adb.
Hopefully a developer will come up with a ROM - but how do you test it in the face of a mistake can result in a brick that can't be fixed?
So I am a huge android gamer. I do not have a pc except at work and i do not have any console systems at home. I am really loving the development that is going on with some stuff Ive seen. Unity 3d and cloud gaming is gonna be huge i think.
My goal with this thread is to try to gather some of us android gamers together. I play all day at work and at home. I need something more than Modern Combat 4 haha. Its a great game but im looking for some huge sprawler. I have seen wildblood from gameloft, looks amazing. I am trying to figure out what people are playing on this device. maybe develop a little support thread for us gamers to unite and share what we have found with each other. I havent really been able to find anything about it anywhere for our device. seems all the attention is always on the one x. our phones are powerful....lets unleash it!
I agree. I'm down to play whatever multi player/coop games we have. Let me know!!

re
I would be too. I guess MC4 multi is only on wifi, but im sure there are some good things out there. I really am sort of enjoying Aralon. Played it?
Am i to assume that really no one plays any games on our device?!
Its too small to do any serious gaming on
What do you mean too small? I play stuff on it all the time. Classic games for sure. I even tried OnLive and demoed the free demo for Darksiders 2 and it worked awesome. Im trying to figure out pairing my ps3 controller for better use, but you could even do mhl out and play dead trigger and whatnot with a ps3 controller. Havent heard of the Ouya? well our phone is powerful as well, i see no need to buy a console when i have one in my hand.
Figuring out compatibility with games that I know the unit could run, i.e. Horn and Six Guns. Let me know if anyone is interested in this as well, I think we should work together as I see no real gaming support community out there. If anyone knows one please let me know.
Too small: When using touchkeys, your fingers covers half the screen and you cant see where youre going
Controller, sure, but unless you have one that can dock the phone, you face another problem - the screen is too far away and therefore too small.
Now a tablet on the other hand have plenty of space for your fingers and can easily be seen when using a controller
So, therefore: The One S is too small for serious gaming
Edit: Whats wrong with six guns? Seems to work just fine?
gameklip acttaches phone to controller. i can play fine with touch controls, maybe youre not a good gamer.
woa that was uncalled for. In that case - maybe youre an 8 year old girl with paperthin fingers?
maybe, im just saying that why should i have multiple devices? i already have a powerful device.
No one said that. You asked if you were to assume nobody played games on the one S, and I answered "its too small" as the reason as to why I dont play 'hardcore' on it.
And Im sure Im not alone.
well thats a great answer i guess. Now as far as people that would actually like to do so? any input there?
So I grabbed one of those bluetooth controllers for my TB to goof around with some classic snes/genesis roms. Unfortunately the market is flooded with various versions, half of which appear to be ripoff's of each other (obviously stolen gui's and menu hierarchies). I remember a long time ago when this was a problem. Some author would release a true to form emulator, then get plagiarized by knock-off brands trying to sell their work on the market and make a quick buck, sometimes even with bundled spyware. So I've tried a few different emu's and most of them seem to have some lag issues. I look them up to see they were last updated in 2010, or 2011 or something along those lines.
So I'm wondering if anybody has any recommendations for good emu's that run great on the TB. We're talking 100% perfect framerate, just like the snes. Perhaps this isnt even possible given the TB's limited horsepower, but hopefully it is. It also wouldnt hurt to post any emu's to avoid, so I dont start getting notification spam and junk like that.
Pretty sure THIS is the best free one for SNES out there.
Someone else may have a better suggestion, but I think this one is hard to beat for free.
Snes9x or gsnes. I have tried almost every single one on the market and both of those have been better. They all have little quirks that make them a little off. Snes9x was the very best snes emulator for pc and the same developer made the Android version.

I use the oids. Snesoid, nesoid, etc. Last time I checked you can get them free on the slideme market. 64oid you still have to pay for.
Emulation: my personal solution to all the "angry birds" games that flood the market.
Enjoy sir.
Duely blundered from my thunderdolt.
Indeed, I have tested every emulator I could find for the Thunderbolt and the 'oid series seem to do best overall.
I've tried them all and snes 9x is the best IMO. it's available on the dev's site...
