Hi all,
Not sure if many of you have experience with this. I've got all three of the gba emulators from the screen shot.
All need a .gba file to run the game. No problem I have many of these files passed to me by a friend years ago.
I put Pokémon on a while ago (yes I know haha) and it ran fine, so I went ahead and out a few others on (street fighter, harvest moon) but none of these .gba files work. They were stored on a different hdd to Pokémon but surely this can't make a difference?
Anyone know if there's a way of analyzing the files somehow to see if they should work or making them run some other way?
I can attach the files if this helps?
They all work on my emulator on the pc, just not on the phone whilst Pokémon does?
Hmm, seems they work when I email the files over. But not when put on sd card. Strange
Guys, emulators themselves are ok to discuss… as that's not warez. But discussing games is.

So i dowloaded Tiger arcade. I've got a few ROMS to work but some wont load. says "load rom failed try another file"Are they just not supported or is there something I can do to fix this? I really want to play strikers 1945 and none of them will work.. Got other 1943/1945 games to work.
BUMP!
I also would like to know!
For mame it works best if u use a sd card that has nothing but mame and the roms on it...go to walmart get you a cheap 2gig card ...reason is mame has a hard time seaching ...i got this info from the dev. 6mts ago and have not had any issues since....
I am also having similar problems.... I just downloaded Tiger Mame and Multiple different roms trying to find 1 or 2 that it would recognize; and it will not recognize ANY roms. I turned off quick rom search; tried quick rom search with it on.... Mounted my EVO to my PC and made sure that the roms were under the 'Correct Tiger Mame Rom Folder'; and for the life of me I can't get it to work.... Other than having to buy a "whole new SD card" and swap them out EVERY time I want to use it, is there any other solutions at ALL?
--Also I am having trouble with PSX4DROID if anybody has time to make a comment regarding it.... It will only download 1 or 2 PSX roms, and then it will stop downloading any further roms (It will emmediately stop downloading, right when I press "download")(Or it will download halfway and then stop.)(Or even say something about "not enough room on SD card, NULL" or Something like that. even though there is WAY MORE than enough room left.)(1 solution that 'KINDA' worked for me, but not very well, was I downloaded each PSX rom, ONE at a time; transfer them to my pc after each download, one at a time: and after I have a few roms on my PC, I transfered them all to my phone all at once. But then to get any other roms, I have to re-transfer them ALL to my PC and get rid every every rom off my phone, and repeat the above process) Anything will help on both subjects. Thank you so much ahead of time!!
I just replied at another tread when i saw your question. So same answer here; Actually you just have to create a directory "roms" in the root of your sd card and place your (unzipped) roms there. It will play Neo Geo, Capcom ROMs and many others. Look at the wiki for the roms supported. I've tried it and I'm back to the eighties again, only now on Android. Success!!
I have just started playing with this... the only prerequisite to get this to work is to make sure the ROM names are in the MAME format... do a search on Google for MAME ROMs and some sites will come up with ROMs... the names will be there as well..
Also, only a limited number of ROMs are supported.... I forgot where I saw the supported list, but I searched Google for it... i.e. 3countb.zip should be the name of 3 count bout... try and see if it works...
And keep them zipped and in the /sdcard/roms folder
Only thing that stinks is Tiger is formated for a small screen on my Nook ! Also, can't seem to exit out of a game once its loaded...
I have installed tiger arcade 4.0.2 in my android.but when I enter it and push coin+start button,no cheating option comes.what to do?
So I started playing Eternal Legacy and keep having an issue where the game freezes towards the end of a battle in the area by the mines. Sometimes I can get through 1 battle only to have it freeze after another. Anyone have this issue?
Gameloft sent me a link to redownload and re-install the game and said to delete the old one. But does anyone know how to save my savegame files so I don't have to start the game all over again? I searched the GloftELHD folder but didn't find any files that looked like a save game.
Most gameloft games store their saved games on memory card e.g. Asphalt 6 (profile.sav) and modern combat 2 (save.bin), and some save it in phone memory as application data (Dungeon Hunter 2)
If you can't find any save game file in Eternal Legacy folder, try saving the application data by Titanium Backup

Of course there is nothing in that folder even remotely called "save" so thats out. Titanium backup works without Root? My device is stock.

No backup currently gives back up app-data without root. You might be able to copy the data out with ADB if you can isolate what file it is, even without root.

Yeah copying the file out isn't a big deal I can do it through windows explorer. The problem is there is no way to identify which file it is. I would just backup the whole thing but that would defeat the purpose of re-installing the game then. I'm not even convinced re-installing the game will fix my freezing problem.

Have you tried GameLoft Support? Asking on the forum where the save-game data is for that particular game? If it is on the phone itself, gotta get it with ADB, if it is on the SD-card, then you can copy off SD-card to another spot.... If you can't find that info, then I don't know what to tell you. I have that game but haven't started it yet (got it as a freebie 2-for-1 deal). So I wouldn't mind knowing too. I honestly wish they published at least a little bit of detail on this stuff, but they are used to supporting iOS devices, where normal users can't get into this nitty-gritty stuff to poke at it.

I actually have tried Gameloft Support themselves, and the guy from Gameloft basically told me he didn't know either.
I'm not sure but you can try follow steps, i think you can get back saved data after uninstalling game:
1. Plug you device with USB cable and open the "Removable disc F (or N or G,J the name could vary)" then open "Gameloft" folder.
2. You will see the "games" folder.
3. Pick up the game you need.
4. Then you will see the whole game data.

The other games do have a savegame file, but this one nothing is marked savegame.
That said not even sure I'm gonna re-install just yet so this may all be moot, just swapped in a Sandisk Class 4 32 gb card and now everything seems to be working better.

Hmmm.. So may just have been a hardware glitch with read-times or such odd? One can only hope as much. It is a shame that GameLoft's support isn't better. Considering that their games (even if often buggy) are generally some of the better ones out there (even if generally ripped from other popular games on other platforms).

I think it may be, I played for about an hour last night and no problems (plus the class 4 Sandisk runs WAY smoother than the 16gb Class 2 card I had). I almost laughed when I got that email, it seems like such a simple question but the fact he straight out told me "I don't know", I've never gotten something like that from tech support before. Another thing I did was reduce my max text messages per thread to 50 and delete a lot of old stuff (probably about 1000+ texts), that has helped with the phone's sluggishness, and I would bet helped the game as well. I would assume Android prioritizes that task and so it can affect other apps.
I've found that their games are a mixed bag. Eternal Legacy is stunning, graphics are unbelievable for a phone, everything works well, but then I get these freeze ups, and worse if you pause the game to answer a call or check an email/text message, it shuts down! MC2 is really stunning as well, but 50% of the time if you go into the control menu the game force closes, and we have had 1000 threads on the targeting with the right stick. Assassins Creed has decent graphics, great controls and play style, but TONS of graphical glitches, and a pretty cheesy story that completely ignores a huge plot point of the Assassins Creed games aside from a passing reference to animus and memories in the menus.
help me about this too?
that's help me too and work thank you for all ^_^
So this may be a little annoying to some members because there are probably threads out there somewhere however, I am new to this website (friend suggested it) and i am new to android and xperia play.
So i'm a little miffed at the lack of serious ps1 titles on it and i was hoping Sony would release more now that the tablets are out and using the same software but they aren't.
Is there anyone who could explain in clear steps as i am a technical noob and have no idea what i am doing with this phone, how to get ps1 emulators/roms to work well?
I've read about FPse and such but i have no idea how to work it or how to make sure it runs games properly. So i wouldn't wanna pay for it and then not know how to use it.
Any help would be really grateful.
Thanks
FPSE is really simple.
1) Extract the BIOS from your PSX (it's illegal to download them...).
2) Extract the ISOs from the disks of the PSX games you own (it's illegal to download them...).
3) Install FPSE and put the BIOS file and the ISO you want to play inside your SDCard.
4) Run FPSE. It will ask you for the BIOS you've ripped. Go to the folder where you've extracted it using the program's file manager, and click on the BIOS file.
5) Now you can do the same procedure to select the ISO you want to play. You have different options to configure the emulator to your liking.
6) Get an idea of what you're doing to your phone. No one is going to spoon feed you everything.
Hey, thanks for the reply and I appreciate it.
I own the majority of ps1 games that I want to play so I can just
rip those using imageburn right?
I dont expect to get spoon fed anything but as im still relatively
new to my phone I also wouldnt want to install an app or mess
with settings without knowing the right way to go about it.
Again thank you for the steps, will use these when trying it out.
Is it true that multiple disc titles run into problems though when disc switching?
Not on fpse. There is a handy Eject button so you can pop in the new disc as you need it.
Hi guys
is it possible to take my own GTA:SA save game that I still have on my PC and copy them to my android in some way that this will work?
I already tried it, I put my save game files (GTASAsf1.b) in: /sdcard/Android/data/com.rockstargames.gtasa/files/
but when I open the game and look at the list of available saved games, there is nothing there! of course I did a backup to my current Game progress before I tried it...
Well, I guess the way each of the games are saved has changed since we are talking about different platforms...
anyway, Is there a way to make it work?
Thanks,
hmm... I installed GTA:VC to try the same thing and no luck...
and yes, I've got all my GTA savegames backed up from PC
I have spent the last week trying to fire the game. After downloading the game, mounting and installing the game, I copied both cd and a copy of the game on to my phone (in case I fail to put the files in the right places. And yes I know that downloaded games make me a bad person but I would rather not risk buying a broken old disk), after putting cd files in conquests and main folder in Exagear (just in case) and replacing all files as it shows up, when I fire the game I get a window saying unload the debugger? Wtf is that?! I am not versed so good in programming stuff like in hardware so that is hard to understand. I hope I can get this to work so I can buy the cuprum controls and start playing the game all out. I even tried a crack that came with the game iso but then it goes back to no cd crap.
My phone is Galaxy S3 and rooted with Kingo Root
I do have an anti virus (CM Security) and some RAM boosters (which so far feel like trash than boosters).
I would be glad if I could get help ASAP so that I can buy the controls ASAP.
EDIT: My bad, it is Civ3 Complete not Conquests.
