Psx4droid

So psx4droid is finally out, how is it working for you? I have rooted htc evo using newest fresh rom and custom god mode kernal with 60fps hack and espon 003 screen. I have tried three games and they start up then fail miserably...can the evo cut it for psx? Anyone having better luck? What settings ,rom, kernal, phone, and screen?

Because this thread wasn't 5 threads from the top.

Must have missed it, been googling it all morning for evo users and found nothing.

Very frustrating that the market doesn't allow me to buy it b/c it's stuck on authorizing. I purchased it through SlideMe and now I can't find the app and don't know where it went. So annoying I hope it doesn't charge me for it again .

Download it on a good 3G area not through wi-fi that's what did it for me.
Now my problem is the Roms aren't working!

Not to mean to hijack your thread, but what is this 60 fps kernal you wrote about? I can't seem to find it.

I love this emulator. It runs PSX games fast on my phone for sure. I have Worms Armageddon working perfectly. Tried running Theme Hospital and Madden 03 and 05 but neither worked. They get stuck at the EA Sports screen. Anyone know of any options to get it working or is it probably just a compatibility issue with that rom? I would assume compatibility but never know.

It runs SOME games fast. FF7 for sure. Chrono Cross is... like... kinda okay. Most games I've tried are unplayable either due to speed, sound, or aren't compatible with the emulator.
****. The one game I expected to run well is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It's a side-scroller and it runs slower than FF7

Yeah, what kernel are you referring to? Are you talking about netarchy-toastmod 3.7.5? That is the latest to my knowledge, and 60fps is a bit of a reach.
Or am I missing a bona-fide 60fps kernel for epson screens?
Anyone?

I have been playing FFVII on it (it runs well). Does anyone know how psx4droid will handle the disc switch?
I ripped the 3 discs seperately (into bin and cue).
Thanks.

I get your point, but cyanogenmod must have a limit.

yeah toasts but i have been switching back and forth through both cr1 as well trying all the games but some of the eboots have built in fps checker and have at some points been hitting 60 fps up to 64 on both if im lucky and close all apps first and this thread was lost because http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735234 was up like 3 minutes before my thread i think so i have just been using that one for psx info and on disk switching just do the save in the game on the disk like not slot save but psx memory card save and then load other disk in emulator and use the save

Angry Birds Poor Quality?

I noticed Angry Birds doesnt like the Hero...You can still play it but all the landscape is white and there are no animations on the birds like the feathers and such. Is this the same for everybody?
I got to say this game is super addicting lol

Yeah is the Same for me Here. But if you run Sense the program will FC a lot. I'm running CM6 and it runs great.
Currently on the First Level. 3/5

Task something to do with 3d drivers. Like I can run need for speed fine on my hero, but my buddy's vibrant shows up with wall textures white. The opposite of angry birds. Lol

CM6 here as well and no FC's.
I wonder if they will ever have a reworked version that will work on the lower end devices. I have a few buddys at work that want the game but there lower end android devices wont play it.

I am having the same issue in NFX 2.2.1 w/ friendstream, NFX Sprint Stock .7, and CM6 Blackmod.

Whew. Glad I'm not the only one. Android 2.2.1, CyanogenMod 6. Someone please help with this. It makes an already difficult (but really fun) game harder.

That's funny because I played it for four hours straight last night on Nfinite's stock odex and didn't have a single FC.

If I want to go to another ROM, is there anyway to save all Angry Birds Data, All level i have passed?

I was just about to make a new thread about this. I got the game yesterday from getjar.com, and compared to the iphone 3GS, Angry Birds looks and runs like crap on our Hero. I've tried on my NFX stock .7 ROM overclocked to 691, and on my girlfriends completely stock .7, and they both are the same.
Why is this? I've searched youtube and it seems to look and run great on other Android phones. As far as I know, doesn't the Hero have better hardware than the iphone 3GS? Can we expect a patch for this game?

it runs great on my phone. using cm6

Define great. Does it seem super smooth like it's running at 60FPS? Are you getting any missing textures (objects on top of white shapes)? Are all animations/effects present (like feathers exploding from the birds)? Have you seen it running on a 3GS?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-hjAY0XpvE

haha ok i see what you guys are saying, no i hadnt seen it played in the 3gs. Mine doesnt have the textures on the hills either. i thought you guys were having problems with it not operating properly like lag.

I was able to get the APK off getjar, but now I'm trying to find it on the market so i can get updates, and it's not there. any thoughts? even tried QR codes
running CM6 nightly builds.

noticed that yesterday... then got to the second level and cant get any further because I cant tell where there is a whole in the terrain. Disappointing.

Definately runs faster for me in CM6 than it did in Fresh 2.4. I didn't get any FC in Sense either, it was just laggy at times. Still have the texture issues though in both though. Mine was installed from a downloaded apk. I read some in some places that it was available from the market, but I couldn't find it in the market.

Does anyone have other Android phones they could test this on? I'm wondering if its happening only on the hero.

My wife hasnt complained about anything other than not being able to get past a level =) I am guessing her EVO runs it fine.

I'm glad I looked here first. Great game, impossible to see on my HTC Hero. Kinda sucks because I was having fun playing it.

Angry Birds 1.3.5

I don't know about everyone else but when I tried to download Angry Birds off the market it couldn't find it so I googled it and found the apk.

It runs kind of slow on my hero CM6, like the lite beta, but it still works. This is the full version and it is pretty fun imo.

You cant post apps that you did not have permission to post on here. And considering the full version is paid, that would be a ware. Please take down the link.

Um... No it doesn't cost money, its ad supported. Therefore I would Imagine Rovio would like it on as many smart phones as possible.

​My Girlfriend has been harassing me about this game every since i let her play it on my evo (worst mistake i could've done) I installed it via apk as it wont show on the market for her phone? But the graphics are all off it doesnt show some of the things like certain rocks, wooden boards etc..... I was wondering was there anything I could do to fix this now she is running latest stock rom. Should i flash it and if so what rom would allow her to play the game correctly? Or do i need a special version or am i s.o.l?

It runs like it should now. Full animations, no funky background issues, and MUCH MUCH smoother than before. It's *almost* as good as playing on the EVO.
Also included in the update: 45 new levels, and a new bird.

CM6.1 with the latest CFS uncapped kernel. I'd say it runs more than 10 fps, probably closer to 20. By no means is it as smooth as it is on the iphone/ipod or the EVO, but it's FAR better than it was prior to the update.

Weird, I'm running CM6.1 with the latest CFS uncapped kernel, and I'm getting maybe 5 fps. I wonder what the difference is? Are you using JIT?

I currently do have JIT enabled. Even before I enabled it, and was running one of the CM6 nightlies, i was getting better than 10fps. Maybe 5 or 10fps at the worst moments, but the game for me has ALWAYS been slightly choppy, I'd say around 20ish fps at best, closer to 15 usually. It seems to be running right around 20-23fps right now, don't know if there's a way to test it.
EDIT: to clear this up, prior to the update, when I couldn't see textures, it seemed to run slower than it does with textures/full animation.

in not new to android by any means and i have no idea what that is lol wana explane and maby i could help u out i feel so noobish lol

OpenGL ES 2.0 was publicly released in March 2007[1], eliminates most of the fixed-function rendering pipeline in favor of a programmable one. Almost all rendering features of the transform and lighting pipelines, such as the specification of materials and light parameters formerly specified by the fixed-function API, are replaced by shaders written by the graphics programmer. As a result, OpenGL ES 2.0 is not backwards compatible with OpenGL ES 1.1.

It works! This is fun, currently playing with this ROM paired with P3Droids lv250 1200mhz kernel. Runs extremely well all things considered.
Aside from the the bugs mentioned the only other issues I've found are
- Two seemingly identical stock gallery and email programs installed. Neither of which can be uninstalled via app manager.
- My computer does not see the phone when plugged in via USB and phone does not ask to connect to computer. I have not done anything with ADB yet.
- The phone will auto rotate horizontal when the keyboard is opened but will not rotate back when closed in some applications.
Ill post/edit if something new comes up

Hi there. I'm the guy that put this little thing together. I did not build this myself/from source. I just happened to take a few things that were working on various builds and glue them together. It does play 3D games and what not, but since the accelerometer does not work, it doesn't really do a whole lot of good. I'm not sure exactly what OPENGL version it has, or how to check it, but if you point me in the right direction, I'm sure I can figure it out for you. (Found this in the Build.prop: # The OpenGL ES API level that is natively supported by this device.
# This is a 16.16 fixed point number
ro.opengles.version = 131072)
As far as the issues, they have been well documented in the original thread on DroidForums. Just to break them down for you though...
Broken:
1)GPS (which also causes browser and any other location finder service associated apps to close when attempting to locate.) You can use a different browser, or set home page to something other than Google.
2)Accelerometer. I'm assuming it is because there are some new sensors included in Gingerbread. I thought it might have something to do with the akmd file, but I've tried a few different ones with no luck...
3)USB Storage. This is an easy fix with an app in the Market place called Multi Mount SD. They have a free and paid version. Dual Mount also works. These are widgets and must be used as such.
As far as the "duplicate" apps, they are different versions of the same app and are easily removed with Titanium Backup.
Most likely, this is not your every day rom. I have been using it, because it's fun to run something you had a hand in making, but it's not considered stable. With that being said, it's the easiest to use rom that we have available and no other Motorola phones really have anything else better, so enjoy what we have.
Happy Holidays / Merry Christmas / Insert whatever gives you warm and fuzzy feelings here.
PS. I am not a dev, so really can't trouble shoot anything too effectively. I've been trying different things to fix the issues, but have not had much luck. I was hoping some devs on DF would pick up on the interest in this project and be able to figure it out, but not much luck so far.
PSS. Definitely suggest flashing another kernel once you set the original rom up and do a nandroid. A lot of the 2.2 kernels work. I've had the most luck with Slayher interactive ones. Try a 1200 one. It's pretty quick...

Not sure about the camcorder. Mine works for me. The browser thing has been discussed many times on all Gingerbread threads. You can't go through the browser's regular home page because location services is not working. Internet works if you:
A) Change the home page to something other than Google.com
B) Get a different browser.
C) Go through the Google Search Box.
It feels like it is 2.2 with some add-ons, because that is exactly what 2.3 is. It's not a major OS revision. Most of the work is behind the scenes dealing with memory management, speed, and such. If it's not faster for you than 2.2, that's odd (if you have not flashed a new kernel with this, highly recommended). There won't be a fully functioning rom till someone is able to figure out how to get some of the proprietary drivers rewritten to work with this boot.img. Not exactly a task for a beginner. Motorola certainly is giving any handouts, so be happy with what ya have.
There are people working on it though, you just have to be patient. It's not something as simple as, "Oh, I'll just add this or that file and everything magically works."
I'm glad some of you are enjoying it though. Blackdroid's team is working on an Alpha. Still broken accelerometer with half working GPS. Hopefully in the next week or 2, he'll push some more stable builds out. Until then, just use this to show off and have a back up of your favorite stable rom. Take care...

Hey man I think you should get yourself the CM7 rom and get the stuff you need to make this a perfect rom, in CM7's version for the D1 GPS and accelerometer work perfect! and it also has the tv animation when the screen turns off.
Id love to see this rom working 100%

Just to let y'all know we were able to get the screen on and off animations to work on the cdma hero by using this guide posted buy the rom dev aosp I don't know if the Numbers will be the same on the Droid but if y'all play around with it it might work http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Screen_On/Off_Animation

Miui is based on cyanogen, but is modded to look more ios like.
If you want to mod the hell out of the system itself and like plain beauty, you're good to go with cyanogenmod, if you like to theme the hell out of your system you're good to go with miui.
Swyped from my desire s far away from my pc

Out of the two miui is by far the smoothest. Only problem, as already stated, you become a copycat in a sense. If you're going to go for cyanogenmod, go for reaper. Much faster and much smoother. But it all boils down to choice. Just have a play with both of them
Also one huge problem I have with miui is the lack of an app drawer. Some people don't mind, some prefer it but it annoys the hell out of me. There are solutions for it but none of them are as good as a proper integrated app drawer.
I would show ICS when face unlock is ready
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium

Functionally and visually speaking, there is nothing better than MIUI.
But if you're talking about performance, speed and battery life... then CM should do it for you. And i agree with dan_fish, that if you intend to go ahead with CM, get Reaper. It is superior to plain CM7

Just shut him up by changing to a different rom everyday

For that, i recommend Sense 3.5 (Endymion). My friend with an iPhone 4 is stunned when he sees the weather lockscreen, flip-clock, and 3D homescreen effects
BTW, AquaSheep's idea is good too

I recommend CM7 or Endymion.
I'm a bit uncertain about MIUI
After using it for a while, I was getting constant abuse of my mates to just 'get a bloody iphone'
MIUI is very similiar to iOS.
Then again, I was using a iOS theme on MIUI
And the experience on it is actually like 90% realistic! !
Literally every aspect of the ROM is themed.
