Any Amaze users running FPSE (playstation emulator for andriod)?
I've been playing Final Fantasy IX for a few weeks now and I am generally happy with the quality and speed that the game is running (using opengl). The developers of fpse have been sending out a lot of updates recently and most of these updates have caused forced closing issues, worse, I lost and forgotten what my settings were to make the game running smoothly. Does anyone have experience with FPSE with open on their Amaze? Can you share your "best" settings?
Thanks!

I wish I could say yes but... I haven't had the chance to get into it yet. But I'll happily keep bumping the thread till you get some answers - I'm interested as well.
I'd love to get some FF running on my Amaze. 7, 8 or 9 would be awesome and 10 would just be incredible lol

Since these setting may be device-specific I thought I'd start a thread about it. Here are my current settings in case you have time to fire it up:
- FPSE version 0.11.36 (newer versions force closes on me when I use opengl - version is up to 0.11.39 as of this writing)
- FPSE defaults to software gpu, so I switch to opengl (settings/misc/opengl plugin; I download to SD and use the plugin "libopenglplugin.so"), then quit and restart
- video settings (settings/video): check the following: frameskip. Print FPS (optional, shows fps on the top left of screen), Original Screen Size, OffScreenDrawing, Alpha Multipass, Anti Aliasing, Texture filtering, Special frame limiter
- audio settings (settings/audio): check: spusync
- misc settings (settings/misc/framelimiter level): 60 Fps
- quit or restart to let settings "stick"
I've tested FF7 too, but I'm trying to finish FF9 first.
I get 60 Fps more than half the time. 20-50 Fps at the world map. Pauses (drops Fps drastically) for a few seconds before battles during the "swirl".

Yeah, the newer FSPE updates are working perfect for me as well now. However, what I needed to do to prevent force closes was to uninstall the old version first, then install the newest version. But in doing this, I need to re-do the opengl/video/audio settings and start from a "memory card" saved game. FPSE is getting better and better and I'm on Disc 3 of FF9!
Nice!

Hey, see my video and comments on the youtubes;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ksn0...kWMsk5R04udqVqG4tPaPOweoEdRCCkM&feature=inbox
Basically, it seems like some kind of memory allocation issue. You can go a few areas just fine, but going to one too many new areas kills the emulator. Also, I got WORSE performance on 2.0 than I had on 1.1 , and it crashed just as often. At least 1.1 had a smoother framerate.
I'm using a stock MyTouch4g, no software upgrades or patches.
Doesn't IT crash way more in older version I haven't had a crash cus they supposedly fix that problem in this version just freezes almost every time I open the start menu to change items or save

Throughout the forums there seem to be fairly conflicting reports about CM7 for the Touchpad, it crashes a lot, it mostly works, lots of apps don't work, most common apps do work.
Basically, how reliable is CM7?
I don't use too many apps, so for me it would mainly be for:
- Browser
- Gmail
- Google Docs
- Facebook
- Twitter
- Spotify
- Swiftkey (does the tablet version work?)
Oh, and the official Touchpad Bluetooth Keyboard.
Would I get a good experience out of the current build?
Some answers after 5 days using CM:
-in my case, no SOD, but it seems to vary
- dolphin hd (browser) works nicely
- SwiftKey x tablet also good
- 2 random reboots in 5 days
- facebook ok if you use fake gps to Set up your location (otherwise it crashes)

I have the official hp touchpad keyboard. It works really well once you get it paired. When it ask for the code on the tp put in 0000 then hit ok. As soon as your done hit 0000 on the the keyboard then hit enter. You have to do this really fast while the tp is running the ring on the screen getting ready to pair it. Good luck

One of the most stable "alphas" I've seen, more of a beta. Running Alpha2, a couple times a day I might have to cycle Airplane mode to get wifi back. This seems more frequent if hopping multiple APs. A couple apps you listed have issues;
- Google Docs - current version FCs, had to sideload old version 1.0.4r (search the forum, there are discussions on this)
- Facebook - FCs unless you run a fake gps app first
This morning I had to power cycle it to get touchscreen back, but even so I feel no urge to reboot into WebOS.

Everything except wifi is fairly reliable. I only have secured networks, so wifi constantly crashes for me. I'd wait for the next release if it was important to you.

As for me,
1. Market sometimes FC when installing (not a big deal)
2. Wifi drops occasionally and need manual reconnecting
3. Battery drain during sleep, at the rate of around 2 to 3% per hour
4. Scrolling a bit jerky for a dual core 1.5GHz device
5. Facebook FC without FakeGPS
Otherwise everything is working so far. But then I haven't tested everything.

I only got mine last night and got CM7 loaded within minutes of opening it. I had some problems with wireless until I switched mine to channel 6 from channel 11. It ran solid as a rock for a few hours until I shut it down for the night.
Renders all my various size and density photos (all JPG) quickly and very crisply.
Netflix ran good.
Youtube was okay.
My mp4s encoded for my Nook Color were all messed up (played but video was whacky, striped accross the screen, these play great on webOS)
Plays my MP3 without issue (need to move my album art over from my Nook Color)
Quadrant scores are pretty low (low 2000's) only due to the FPS graphics not being optimized (GPU acceleration probably is not finished.)

Browser is meh. But 3rd party Opera is fantastic. Nearly as smooth as safari on ipad.
Gmail is fantastic.
Google Docs is great.
Facebook sucks if you don't install a fakegps app or the older 1.5.2 apk that didn't need GPS.
Twitter's great..
Thats all I know. But I do know that the camera doesn't work (on EITHER of my CM Touchpads) and that each of mine have also had a random shutdown and refused to wake up (without me long pressing the power/home buttons repeatedly)... but that being said... very sweet stable for an Alpha. In fact, I think it's more stable than my phone, also on CM. And more importantly, it's better than WebOS if only for the app selection.
Compared to web os its 100% better some bugs but I haven't booted into web os since the first alpha.

have SOD's despite the fact that i've tried every work around i could find... actually the last one was probably due to the fact that the work around drained the battery... between that and the wifi i've pretty much given up on it until a more stable for me release. it is in very good shape though. i liked having a netflix tablet for a bit. wish HP had made it 16:9 but oh well.
anyway since you can dual boot i really dont' see any reason for people not to put it on there. Pulse newsreader is so damn cool on a tablet

oooo ill have to check it out. Thanks
Just installed yesterday and very impressed for an alpha build. Only get FCs for market and Facebook but realised that i need the fake gps. Did have to reboot the first time as apps wouldn't install saying i had no space. On the whole i like it and especially adobe reader as its miles more quicker and better quality than the WebOS version. But i do miss the WebOS interface so i can see what apps i'm running and throwing the cards away to close the app.
This works on the Nook Color, unlike N64oid.

Very cool, I'll be following this pretty closely then.
Mine crashed as soon as I attempted to run a few roms... :/
Any specific settings I'm missing??
I tried a few ROMs and all of them loaded up but of course most have the usual visual problems. I just used the default settings. There aren't many settings to tweak right now anyway.
I tried mucking with a few of them. Then I reset the data to make sure I was on defaults. Might just be my particular roms :/

I got Mario64 and Fzero64 running what looked like flawlessly. SFRush, Rush2, Pilotwings64, and Shadows of the Empire loaded but had issues. Fog isn't rendered unfortunately. N64oid has fog support.
Oh and I am using the CM7.2 RC0 KANG ROM. I don't know if his customized Dalingrin kernel behaves differently. It still doesn't work with N64oid though.
I'm on just CM 7.1 I haven't really had time to play with other versions. I'm not even sure where to go from 7.1
I tried OOT, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, and a few others to no avail.
Just want to bump this. This emulator has a lot of potential but it needs more members posting problems and contributing to the system. It works decently well on the nook!! Hope on over to their forum and give it a shot.
I have been using Mupen64 for almost a month, and and have experienced none of the problems I encounters using the early versions of N64oid, the only versions of that app I could get working on the nook. Mupen64 has run Zelda OOT and Perfect Dark with no FC so far.. The Zelda has some scramble issues in the maps on the start screen, but the dungeon maps are fine, so there are really no playability issues. I never know how many rupees I have, and but whatever.. A huge improvement, and and the app is free on the dev's website.
Well worth a try if you game on your Nook. I find that the best 64 games trump most of the market fare by a wide margin, although none of the games make use of the sensors or touch screen of course.
Oh yeah: has worked on every iteration of the MiRaGe Kang, and currently running the 2/1 update.
can't find roms for mupen64plus on note 2
hi guys been searching the forums for this answer but have come up empty handed.
I moved the roms to my extSdcard under the directory downloads but when i use mupen64 to look for games in that directory it doesn't see any games; when i use astro file manager or even the epsxe app i see the roms there.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Here's where we shall list the games that just don't work on the latest build of this rom.
If you don't mind, the smart people figuring things out with the rom would like you to test and report back, and report any other games that just don't want to work.
Just reguesting that people get a logcat/dmesg and if your device crashes, a last_kmsg.

Temple Run
Shadowgun
Dead Trigger
Sprinkle

Here is a Last Kernel Message after testing some games and browsing the GUI.
Here are more Interesting reports.
I was able to catch a glitch from what it seems LCD or Refresh distortion and also some more Logcat Crashes
New misbehaved games:
Free from market:
Mayhem : Touch screen freezes game. Most problematic games do that.
Pinball Pro : 3 dots mute and unmute sound Pressing 3 dots i manage to crash Nook Tablet SOD then reboot/shutdown.
Attached here is a Logcat with Game Glow Hockey 2 that screen goes black when you start main game, and also i included Pinball Pro strange behaviour when pressing 3 dots mute/unmute audio.
Also Last kernel message after i leave Glow Hockey 2 displaying black screen for 1-2 min wich caused a reboot issue.

while many would love to help you fix your wifi issue, you need to provide more details than "wifi won't stay on"
assuming that you are on the latest version of chrmhoffmann's CM10 (per the thread title)
what is the environment and what are the symptoms?
is this your home wifi router?
how far away is the router?
is it secure?
are you getting interference from another router or transmitter, clutter on the channel?
what have you tried so far, have you re-flashed the ROM?
give us a little to go on and maybe we can help

So sorry. After I left the post I was thinking maybe it wasn't the right place.
To answer your questions...
I could be anywhere in my house. Signal could be very strong of very weak. The router is about 3-4 rooms away in a basement. I never had these issues with CM7. My router is secure WPA I believe. I'd have to double check. I'm not sure about any interference... But I can try to figure that out. (But never had issues with CM7)
Most of the game titles I have tried so far come from gameloft. Order and Chaos, Nova 2, Nova 3. I watch the numbers count up and they go very quickly say 30-40 mb in a few seconds then very very long pauses.Then another 30-40 mb in few seconds and then another very long pause and then after a while longer the wifi connection is lost. I go back to the main screen to find my wifi has actually turned itself off. Short downloads seem to be ok. Larger downloads are not. This has also happened to me if I surf on the unit for a very long time.
If this isnt the right place I apologize. I can't seem to to find a place where I'm allowed to post yet..
Thanks,
JT
Problematic games are a little less problematic
Greetings. Since the introduction of CM9, I've found that many games and applications weren't handling touch events correctly and consequently, caused games - like gta3, shadowgun, and battleheart - to crash, hang, or not display ui elements correctly. This was very depressing indeed and I'd often stare down at my nook tablet regretting my purchase. I honestly felt Gingerbread simply didn't belong on a tablet and the stock BN Rom felt very antiquated for my tastes. I was stuck, or at least I felt that way. CM9 - now I'm using CM10 - was nice, but none of my favorite applications would operate the way you'd expect.
However, thanks to some very diligent gentlemen over in this thread , games and apps that once behaved awkwardly with regards to touch events are now working fine! I somewhat feel inclined to include a "games that are now working" list, but honestly, everything I've thrown at the nook tablet since updating its firmware and patching the fixed kernel driver, has worked wonderfully well. GTA 3, Raymans jungle run, GLWG, Battleheart, deadspace; old or new, many problematic apps are responding to touch events now, and nook tablet owners should really give CM10 a go. I even tried a few lesser known games that would hang due to mishandled touch events and they now work, too. The nook tablet is looking really sexy now, folks :laugh:
tl;dr
mik_os updated our touch panels kernel driver to support a firmware that enables concurrent 5-finger touch. I think he also "sexied" up the touch handling, which resulted in some applications working better - with regards to touch events - than they did before.
Also, once you upgrade your touch panel to this new firmware, there's no going back! You're stuck with CM9/CM10, but I honestly don't think that's a problem

Not correct. You can flash stock firmware for touchscreen, thus revert is possible
QUESTION
Hello. Before you read the title and assume I haven't done any research, please continue reading
What I'm looking for is a way to record my phone's Android OS screen. I'm looking to start doing tutorials and reviews on games so I need to be able to record actual gameplay. I've tried various ways to do this, but all unsuccessful unfortunately.
I initially purchased Screencast Video Recorder which does an amazing job at recording screen and movement, but whenever I launch an actual game is when I would experience problems. As far as me looking at my phone went, everything was fine. But when I would go back and look at the video file it recorded I noticed it would basically stop at the moment the game got graphic-intense I guess. Some games it would completely stop until I closed the game out, or it would literally play a frame every 30 seconds it seemed. I played around with the settings to increase/decrease FPS and quality but neither fixed the issue even remotely close. And I'm pretty sure it's not any problem with the power of my phone as it's a decent one (see end of thread for specs)
Considering this is basically the best application on the market to record video, I assumed that the best way to get around this issue would be find an application that displays my Android screen onto my PC and use a normal desktop application (like Camstudio) to record it on my desktop screen.
Next I gave [email protected] a try but ran into similar problems. The FPS/movement was so slow that it was worthless. Upon reading the FAQ on the [email protected], they said there was no way to increase FPS because it was dependent on the USB. I monitored the bandwidth and it stayed above 2MB so I don't see what the issue was.
Next I tried androidscreencast which pretty much did the same exact thing that [email protected] did - on top of that it was said I could control my phone via the java application but it didn't work for me.
What I ultimately am looking for? This video is a perfect example (my apologies for linking to this particular video, however it's the best example I could find). It's great quality/resolution, they are able to control it with their PC because I see a mouse moving, and they also launch Angry Birds at the end of the video and I don't see much of decrease in FPS. One thing I noticed about the video is at the very end they stop the video and I see they are using Screencast - so of course with me have already using that I was extremely confused as to how they got such great quality and can control it from their PC.
If anyone has any links, suggestions, recommendations, or anything that can help me do this, it would be greatly appreciated!
