In the video he shows a controller connected via blutooth to the note. Any body knows what is the name of that controller? I may want to see if I can buy it on ebay.
Also is there a website with the explanation of the video. The video is too fast for me to follow ;( noob

I followed his instructions, and the n64 is working fine on mario 64. I added dunkey Kong and when I press play and I finish watching the intro it freezes.
The snes games I tried they all don't start. I when I select the game the screen goes crazy. I I'm yet to try putting the play station emulator. I I got frustrated and I deleted the snes emulator. Let me know if anybody got it working following his links

If you want a good site for emu go to roms4droid.com many emus a bunch that are free & roms galore. Plus the community is great. Never had an issue with any of them. though i have only tried the free ones.

Emulators that I use that all work great:
Fpse (ps1)
Gameboid (gba)
N64oid (n64)
Nesoid (nes)
Snes A.D. (snes)
Most of these can be found on roms4droid.com
You need a bios file for Gameboid and Fpse which are also available at roms4droid.

I couldnt get FPSE to run for me. FCs on me everytime Played this religiously on my Atrix 2...

I pretty much use only the "Oid" emulators. I've tried a couple of different SNES ones, but SNESoid is the best. Just be sure to turn on "Core C" option or whatever it is. That will allow games like Actraiser and Mario RPG to run correctly.
I had problems with FPSE also, but it was the BIOS I was using. For some reason the copy of 1001 I had wasn't right. Someone here linked me to the copy on roms4droid and it has worked ever since. FPSE isn't without its shortcomings though... but it's the best thing available for PS1.

good thread idea... I was actually going to post the walkthroughs that I wrote up a while back.
I use N64Oid, and FPse mainly, and i forgot what NES I used to use (its not isntalled anymore). My favorite part of everything was using my PS3 controller, since it worked seemlessly with FPse, and worked very well with N64Oid.
Once again, NFC works its magic.

FPse can be a pain in the ass.
1) open FPse, agree to save BIOS, then load the BIOS through the file browser.
2) hit back to not load an ISO, keep going back until you get to a menu.
3) choose Audio, then check SPU sync.
4) go back, choose Misc, then select "Save config as default" (something like that).
5) go back until you get the menu option to quit, then quit the app.
6) start FPse, hopefully it should ask you for an ISO, not the BIOS. try loading your FF7 ROM. It will read bin/cue just fine.

Bump, need to read up on this

Cool! Got my old favorite "Pilot Wings" working with N64oid!! Whta would really be great would be if I could get my PS3 Controller working with it also and get it playing on the TV. But if I'm understanding everything correctly to get my PS3 controller to work, I'm going to have to use the SixAxisController app that was previously mentioned........
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xiscompatibilitychecker&feature=search_result
And dang it if it doesn't require being rooted!! I was kind waiting for the official ICS to come out before I rooted my Note though, is there anyway my PS3 controller will work with the Note without being rooted???

[Q] Emulators for the 10.1

Has anyone found any good emulators for the 10.1? Most are made for phones so they're usually stretched. I'm looking for a good NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis emulators.
BTW, N64oid (N64 emulator) runs basically perfect on the Tab. Worth a download, though its a bit hard to use touch screen for "Z" and "R"
I'm fairly happy with SNESoid so far, although it's hard to find right now.

Ok, well, how exactly might one be able to connect a wii controller to the tab and use it for emulators?
Also, I've been trying SNESoid for about a day now and seems to play games well, however, I was just looking for designed for honeycomb (not just supported). Basically, I'm looking for a cleaner interface instead of pixelated buttons (I know its not really important). My other issue is the on-screen buttons are so close to the home/back, and clock buttons, i keep clicking them (this will be solved by using an external controller i suppose)

"Wiimote Control" app on Market.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnGNB3UnyAk
NOTE: Wiimote Control has issues with a lot of third-party Wii accessories. For example, I originally tried the Nyko Wand+ and it failed.
Also, if you have a USB host adapter (homemade or the official Samsung one which is finally in stock - I got mine today), a PS3 or Xbox360 wired controller, or any USB PC controller should work.

It may be due to how they were originally distributed...
ALL of them were paid apps for a while until most were pulled from the market. In the case of yongzh's stuff, there were open source license violations. In the case of psx4droid, it was Sony pressure.
N64oid might not have the same open source licensing issues that all of other yongzh's emulators had.
Im using snes9x ex and will great plus you can adjust the size of you game screen as u like and so much more. Its also compatible with wimote. If you need help there are video tutorials about wii mote on youtube it really helped me a lot. Configuring the keys was a little tricky at first but if you ever need help with that part just ask

It is still the beta version, I have been using it for about 2 days and it runs very smooth and it has everything i thought was missing from the default tablet though it does take up more of the screen then the pre-loaded keyboard.

Here are the steps I followed and it worked just fine. make sure you do it all from your tablet.
1. On your phone, open the Swype beta email.
2. Click the 1st link in the email.
>Wait a minute. (If nothing happens, click the link)
3. Wait for the file to download.
4. Tap "Swype-Installer.apk".
5. Press Install.
6. Press Open.
If there is an available update to the Swype Installer, you will be prompted to download and install the new version.
7. Press Login.
8. Enter the email address and password you used to register. Press Login.
>If you haven't activated your account yet, enter the 5 digit code from the email you received after registering, then press Submit.
9.Select which version you want, then press Download Swype.
10. Press Install.
11. Press Done.
12. enable Swype as your input method
That should do it.

Confirmed Working Bluetooth Gamepad for HTC devices! No Root

After a year of trying to find a working Gamepad for non rooted Evo 3D, this popped up out of nowhere.
*Gamestop. com, search "Tablet Wireless Bluetooth Controller"
Went to my local GS and picked it up for $40. It worked perfectly for my Evo 3D and my Galaxy Tab 10.1! Emulator mapping was perfect, already set up for Shadowgun and Sonic CD and a few others. This and an MHL adaptor just made me a happy Evo 3D owner. Hope this helps anyone who was stumped like I was but didn't want to root.
Nice find. I have been wondering myself. I am rooted, but all I ever saw was you needed to be on cm7 to use them.

Good find OP, will definitely be getting this, no more having to dual boot to a AOSP ROM just to play emulators with my Wiimote!

Yep, that's the one. They had plenty at my GS so I'm sure they have them at most of them too.
I picked up that Gamestop gamepad as well and it's working great with my EVO 3D running Infected ROM 1.4.2. Hooked it up to my LCD TV with my MHL adapter and now I have a complete NES system with every single game ever available all in my little phone. Brings back so many memories. Great find!
I bought one of these as well online, the problem I ran into is that the left analog stick is inverted and changing the settings in game doesn't solve the problem. What I mean is that with the left analog stick up and down movements registers as left and right and vice versa.
With an emulator I can assign the stick the right way but the listed movement is still wrong, but with a game such as ShadowGun I can't map the controller. Did any of you guys experience this problem? I called Gamestop and they said I could bring it back to the store for a swap or refund. Thanks in advance.

Now shut up and take my money
seriously how i can get one of them here in Mexico wha
I purchased one of these from their online store. It works with my E3D and my touchpad running android. I have a little problem with occasional lag (like it takes a split second to wake up the button). Anyone else having that problem? Maybe i need send it back for a replacement?

Same issue here, it seems like the controller is programmed for portrait gaming, the controller is offset 90 degrees when you go to play a landscape game. Wish there was an app that would run and allow for mapping of the controls or at least rotate the axis's with the phone.
I have to give this a try, thanks.
I have a rooted Stock Evo V 4G
And i want to say that the Moga works as well (it should work on non-rooted too)
Both the Pilot app works with officially supported games and the universal driver with some other games that support controllers
GTA 3 - yes
Sonic 4 ep1, deadspace - no
Those however require root, without root the analog will act as d-pads which can still be used on emulators! :good:
Got the GS Controller...
Went out and got the GS Controller after I read the great news, unfortunately I can't get it to work with my Evo V. The bluetooth turns on and discovers the "GS Controller" and pairs, but it says connecting... for a split second and then just shows as a paired device. When I tap the paired device it says "touch any key to reconnect keyboard"
Does your phone display "connected" under GS Controller?
Not sure if it matters but two of the controller's LEDs (green & blue) blink until I press a button on the gamepad, after just paired.
I am back on the stock VM Rom and HBoot 1.5757
I am just an old school gamer trying to play up on the big screen mobile style. Sorry if I missed any info...thanx in advance for any help!

So you just need to pair them up and i works? Since you are unrooted, you cannt run sixaxis compatibility checker....
picked up version 2 of this (red samurai), works out-of-the-box, as a bluetooth keyboard in pacman rom 21.0 (with the switch in back set to 'k') on an evo 3D
getting it to work on a stock evo V, not quite so simple...
@Venturesploring i had the same issue of it pairing, but not connecting, i don't know if this will work on version 1 or not, but what i did to get it to work with stock ICS was install "Bluez IME" from the play store, then within the page's description download and install "HID Enabler" (link near the bottom), then when in 'bluez IME Settings', choose "keyboard (HID)" for 'select device driver'
Nice.. must try.. thanks
thank you very much for this, been looking for something like it
Updated game list on GameStop's Web page
Gamestop Red Samurai
I saw GameStop updated the new Bluetooth controller's web page with more games list that works with the controller. I know The Bard's Tale works also. Make sure the controller is in "G" (gamepad mode) on the back of the controller!

console emulators?

Has anybody managed to get any decent console emulators working as i have tried fpse and psx4droid and both force closed as soon as you begin playing also does anybody know how to get the 3d stick port to work with a usb keyboard?
FPSE works for me, also Super GNES works for SNES games.
I have about 8 PS1 games that I play on my 101 G9, and a few dozen SNES games (I can't seem to let the classics go).
I've never tried PSX4Droid before though, so I can't comment on how that one works.
I've used Nesoid, works well with keyboard via usb-otg.
Also i've tried Mupen for emulating nintendo64, but didn't try to use it with external keyboard.
Sorry for my lousy English.
I have tried on my Archos 80 G9 250 gb Mame emulator with success and even with usb joypad support and also Amiga uae , both play fine .

what version of fpse have you used as every game i use force closes, are you using a gamepad or touchscreen and what games have you tried

Has anybody managed to get any decent console emulators working as i have tried fpse and psx4droid and both force closed as soon as you begin playing also does anybody know how to get the 3d stick port to work with a usb keyboard?

All classic (8-16 bit) Yonghz's emultors work fine, however on-screen controls don't look good- they were designed for MDPI or HDPI displays.
I didn't manage to get psx4droid or fpse to work- they don't like .img or .bin files.
As for 3g stick USB port- IMO this would require system modification, I can't say how deep.
BTW- this topic should be posted in General forums, not Developement.
Didnt see a gen 9 general only gen 8

For the KB, just plug it, it works fine (tested with my Microsoft curve keyboard 2000)

Did it work when plugged to "3g port"? IIRC Archos claims that only stick will work there
tapatalked from Desire
I'm using the newest version of fpse, not sure what the version number is. I purchased the app, so I just update in the market whenever it has an update.
I just added Breath of Fire 3 to my G9 101. I ripped it from the disc using Alcohol 120%. I don't trust downloaded Playstation games, so I always rip my own from my collection.
Runs at 60fps constantly, no slow-down on any of the games I play. Occasionally I'll drop to about 55-56fps on Legend of Legaia when I have a big battle going on and I use certain special attacks (lots of 3D graphics going on).

I wonder if a problem you're having has to do with the bios that you're using? I'm using a bios that I made myself quite some time ago that I use on my phones. I just used the same bios for my G9 101 and haven't had any problems.
I have the latest version and have tried silent hill and tekken 3 with various bios files and all force close when using touch screen, I havent tried controller yet but whats the point in having something this portable if you have to plug a controller in
Hmm, I don't have either of those games, so I can't test them. Any other games you guys are having trouble with?
My games that work so far are:
Final Fantasy 7
Final Fantasy Tactics
Gangway Monsters
Legend of Legaia
Legend of Mana
Tales of Destiny
Final Fantasy 8
Final Fantasy 9
Legend of Dragoon
Breath of Fire 3
Breath of Fire 4
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Chrono Cross
Final Fantasy Anthology
Final Fantasy Chronicles
Final Fantasy Origins
Metal Gear Solid
Dragon Warrior 7
Star Ocean: The Second Story
Brave Fencer Musashi
Legend of Mana
Threads of Fate
Harvest Moon: Back to Nature
Lunar Silver Star Story Complete
Lunar 2: Eternal Blue
Xenogears
Ogre Battle
***Red games indicate games that take a slight hit to the fps during large events, or big elaborate battes.
These are all ripped from my own private collection using Alcohol 120%. There are others, I just haven't ripped them yet.
the forced closes seem to be related to the touch screen i think it might work if i used a usb keyboard or something but would prefer to use touch screen anyone know how to stop it from closing when using multitouch like using dpad and x at the same time seems to crash fpse

I can confirm the latest version of FPse from the market works. It says v0.11.11.

Yes. This phone does a great job as a micro console. Been playing gta and feels just like a ps2

Is there a way to use a PS3 controller on the Sony Xperia Swithout root and without Sony's Live Dock?
I've got a PS3 controller with a cable, but I can't connect it via USB On The Go. It gives me a power consumption error.

Nope, won't work.
Added CSPortable to list. Works great with pad and HDMI, proper call of duty FPS type shooter with online multiplayer and it's free. Unofficial pc counter strike port/based by people from the Russian pda forums. I rate this game high so give it a try plus only takes up 40mb of storage
Edit : forgot to say that to enable sticks and buttons you will have to map them in the in-game controller settings first and disable gui to take on-screen controls away.

Hi guys my controller is arriving tomorrow. When I connect the controller do the on screen controls automatically turn off?
Also if someone has time can they test real racing 2 with the ps3 controller please?

On certain games like max Payne, gta, shadowgun etc they will automatically hide but some don't and will have to change in settings. As for RR2 it has no support but if have root purchase the sixaxis app and that will allow you to map the pad to onscreen presses, so the pad will act like you touching the onscreen controls (this method applys to nearly all android games so is worth rooting just for this app). Hope this helps

There's a whole sixaxis app thread in the main xda general apps section which contains helpful info and also pre made profiles for games to make it easier plus the developer of the app has a web site with full instructions. But I must say that native pad supported games work a lot better as the games where made for controllers.

1) I mite try to update this thread but its had no interest for like a year so what's the point. Also its now in the wrong section as its all been moved around by XDA.

They should do. If I was you I would use Robert broglia's emulators on market as they are so much better. NES.emu, Snes9x (find it free on his web site, link on the market under description in the other emus or link is here), MD.emu (also now has Sega CD built in), 2600.emu
