Watch the xda "you are noob" video I would post link but you need practice so search it
I'm all for helping noobs, I am a noob in many areas, but there are these amazing things called search boxes on both google and the android app store, you would have spent less time and gotten a faster better answer if you had typed your question or just "emulator" into one of those. Please do not ask questions that you can answer on your own with a 5sec. search.
Now here's an anwser that couldn't be found with a 5 sec search( but probably could be found with a 60 sec search) but I'll answer it anyways
emulators are not just strait forward so here's instructions on how to use them after you find a good emulator app
If you get an emulator without getting a ROM for it that's like buying an xbox and not getting any games
Because you can't physically put a game on you emulator you just do it virtually.
Pick a game you you like. Example: if you have a n64 emulator then Mario n64 is the greatest game of all time.
Search the name of you game along with ROM example; Mario n64 ROM
Find a download for it, there are some good sites that have a lot of ROMs all in one place like coolrom or romhustler
After you have downloaded your game open your emulator and there should be an option such as "open ROM file" or "choose game"
select that and it should bring up a list of your folders,
navigate to where you downloaded you ROM which is most likely under the "Download" folder,
open the folder find your ROM that you just downloaded and select it, and you should be fine from there
<-Press the "thanks" button if I helped!

UPDATED dec.20,09 Freeware for windows mobile WVGA and 3G only mobile TV ,games,etc

The 1st is a TV app called the channeler which you can watch free TV with over hundred station and many languages.
The 2nd is a game called chipperx , a freeware game I found with 4 levels. Its a run and jump type game which is really fun , plus a very responsive on arcade screenpad check out the photos . If what I posted here you already have let me know , I try to find newer items.
does it work on o2? for the channeler?
Thanks!
downloaded it to my wing doesnt play says something about broadband width
3G
Ok sorry i forgot to mention that the channeler works better over wifi or 3G . I have touchpro2 which is a 3G cellphone.
Ok here some more downloads for WVGA with 3G devices
HTC clean ram---clear running memory on your phone great app
VWD-- download videos and short movies for free ...and porn lol!!
Cabxpress--this is a super app , this lets you go thru a long list of games and apps cab. style. Instead of going to sites that have exe. this put you were you only download cab items.
Some website with cool stuff!!

Not to break the initiative or anything, but you've made four posts in this topic, containing nothing that's not yet on xda-developers. The applications you mention all have their own topics, except for chipperX, which if I recall correctly, you've opened a topic for yesterday, asking for opinions on the on-screen gamepad?
Ok hello welcome to the thread tomasz. To answer your question is very simple. Iam new to this , so what I have done was download some games and apps and tested them out. After I tested them out I will put here what works. This way a thread could be made with already tested downloads , not just downloads that might not work. And no the chipperx game download is only here.
Pocket pc pong 480x800
This is a simple game just for fun . Shoot the ball to the top beat the opposing paddle. Little pac-man type charactors pop-up after you score , hit him and your score jumps high. I thought the game was fun but easy at the same time
ok you have anything to add

[Q] where is apps in the market ?

i have problem with my market after touchwiz update , there is no alot of app in market like before
for example , if u open Games in the market u will find just like 7 Games , and the same at all branch of catlogy , there is just 7 or 8 app
if any one can help me
I pick games and I see 6 "Top Paid", and six "Top Free". On the right are subcategories. Pick a game category and you'll get a new list of the free and paid, but those have an arrow next to them that leads to the whole collection of games in that category. Look for the (>) next to "TOP FREE" and "TOP PAID". If there isn't an arrow, then you're looking at all available in that category.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

here's what you need to do.
1. stop looking for tablet "specific" apps cause there aint too many
2. search for games by name instead of just browsing. I look for games for my 10.1 that I have on my iPhone and I can pretty much find what Im looking for if I search for it.....HOWEVER, the market place search is a Fking JOKE !! I basically search Google to find the Market Place link.
3. dont just look in the market place, search Amazon and some devs such as Gameloft dont sell from the market, you have to get it from their site.
I noticed the same thing after upgrading to touchwiz. Several categories no longer have the > button after them. I'm using StarBurst ROM, and I am wondering if the problem is Touchwiz or that I'm a custom ROM.

PSX emulators

I have an i9000,, I've tried FPse and Psx4droid,, none of them worked,,, i used all the BIOS i can find,, and nothing,,, I've also tried 3 games,,,
Any help??,,,
Thanks...
What do you mean they don't work? Do they force close, not open, games unplayable, what? What does it say? Please clarify your question/statement.
black screen for 1 second,,then back to "choose rom" screen...

You stated that you tried all the BIOS you can find. Remember they have to be specifically for PSX. BIOS's can be for all kinds of emulators but you need the one specifically for this. Have you tried these: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dummies.android.FPBIOS&feature=search_result or https://market.android.com/details?id=com.psxbios&feature=related_apps ? Also, some games are just not playable by these emulators. For a compatibility list, go here: http://fpsece.net/compatibility.html . Make sure the games you have are stated as compatible before trying to use them.
Maybe I could bring up a related question here since well... this thread is right now squarely about Warez, as is any other thread on Android PSX emulators that I know about. It's one of the few cases where I can partially justify it, but that doesn't make it legal: That ROM is a copyrighted application.
Are there any ROM-less PSX emulators or open source PSX ROMs?
checked,, the games are compatible,,
and i've tried PSX BIOS,, starting from Scph1000 to Scph7502 (total = 5 BIOS-es)...

Just so you know, the games are not copyright if you: "own the original game cartridge or cd and you also must own the system or console you are emulating."

The main one which usually works is scph1001. Apart from this, does any other (apart from what you stated) game work for you?
Not really,, every game with every BIOS (including Scph1001),, the screen turns black for a second,, and back to the "choose Rom" menu...

Not talking about the games, just the ROMs... and while it may even, depending on your location, be legal to download it if you already own it, the problem is that is definitely illegal to offer it without verification that the customer actually is has the right to obtain a copy. A lot of emulators by now include their own ROM for exactly that reason (along with the ability to let a modified ROM hook into HLE mechanisms). That's why I'm asking if you know about PSX emulators that do not require Sony's copyrighted ROM.

OK. I get what you're saying, but no psx emulator has their own roms included. Usually the ones which do, are like gameboy emulators or other emulators which use roms of small sizes. The answer to your question is no. All of them require those roms to be able to be play any game. Also, from what I know of, their is no open source psx emulator so far.

What you are experiencing with the emulators is not normal. I guess you'll just have to report the problem to the devs and see if they can fix it. You could also try a new rom first if you are rooted (or willing to root your device).

GBA emulators

Is there a GBA emulator that works well on the NC (CM7)? I tried Gameboid and Mojo, but both of them repeatedly crashed whenever I tried to load something.
Gameboid works fine on my Nook with a KANG build of CM7.2. I don't know of any other gameboy emulators.
Sent from space
After searching around on the Google, I found another apk of Gameboid. Everything works now. And also unlike the first one I used, it actually uses the whole screen. Advance Wars on a 7" screen is absolutely great. Sorry to clog up the forum with a question I ended up finding the answer to on my own.
Where did you find the other apk that worked? I might like to give this a try.
Not certain if I'm allowed to repost apks, but its down there if you want it. Delete this post if its in violation of anything.
Much appreciated, thanks man.

Emulators/Rom/Games on Asus Transformer Prime

Hi
I'm looking for Emulators/Rom/Games on Asus Transformer Prime where do I find them and are they stable?
The two emulators I know of are N6401D 2.6 and Snes. Are there others.
I really like the old games. Lemmings is my favourite. Tell me all I need to know to play this games on Asus Prime
Thanks
Greg
Wrong section. Look in themes n apps section. Or just click the gamers link in my thread. Fpse(PS1), Snesdroid, Genedroid, N64oid, and NeoDroid(Neo Geo emulator) all work great on my prime.
I'm new to android and emulators in general. I understand the emulator apps can be found in the Market, but what about the games?
Does my Prime need to be rooted for me to install these games and run them? If anyone could explain the installation process quickly that would be great.
Lol...
Games are found the exact same way you found them for emulators on other operating system...
Google it!

You meed to go to themes n apps section. You might get more answers there. You need to research of first. I could easily tell you where to go but you wouldn't know how to install LR operate the emulator. Plus search can tell younall you want to know. Ask question in my gamers thread or emulator thread n someone will Assistan you.
