Its been done;)

apreichner has cracked it and booted it on the NS... Exciting times guys;))))

Nothing works at the moment but its a great base, wander over to the Dev section and check the sense think tank page out.

Big big thanks to apreichner;))

What a star and definitely worth an xda news slot;)

Not yet,

That's on the agenda though;)))

Now its booting it will be a matter of getting the kernel right, when that's right upgrading that to 3.0 should be a relative doddle;)

i certainly don't think dev is dead at all.. its just Gingerbread is still in its early stages and honestly.. not many things need to be changed at all. most ROMs on various phone forums are just themed versions of the same ROM.

[Samsung Mesmerize] wcouri:
I just updated my Mesmerize to the official 2.2 froyo and am currently using the latest voodoo kernel. My wifi only works right after I turn on my phone and says "error" in the Wireless and Networks settings after I try and press the Wifi button in the status bar after about 8 hours of the phone being on. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? I know it's not my networks that I am using because they have always worked with 2.1.
[Samsung Mesmerize] scarmon25:
Did you have voodoo installed prior to upgrading to the 2.2. And if so. Did you disable voodoo before flashing the 2.2.

Only reason I ask is I have seen a lot of warnings about that sort of thing messing stuff up.
[Samsung Mesmerize] wcouri:
Yes I made sure that I disabled lagfix before upgrading to 2.2, everything else on my phone is working great other than wifi occasionally not responding.
[Samsung Mesmerize] Iguana775:
I havent really had problems but my wifi reception sucks compared to my iPod Touch. I could have full signal on my Touch but have only 1 or 2 bars on my Mes. also, my router is about 20 feet away right now and I got 1 bar with nothing obstruction line of sight.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bigjr99:
Mine does that too. If you press on the wifi button in settings where it says error it will turn on.

Hey, i made some 'banners' for android, similar to 'Available on AppStore for iPhone', that you can find on internet. I notest that hasn't one for android, so i made this three models. I can't add the image here, because i don't have enough posts, so i would be gratefull if someone did.

More information can be found at

It should be "works on 2.2+"

[Android Apps and Games] bsharitt:
As I'm sure many of you are aware, people posting pirated apps the Android market has been a problem, but with in that problem is people posting GPL based applications, but refusing to comply with the terms of the the GPL. I've recently discovered that AnDOSBox, based on the DOSBox open source project, is one of those. It's not "convenient" for them to comply at this time. As an open source developer myself (but not of DOSBox itself, so I unfortunately can't file the DMCA violation request with Google), I hate to see people ripping off open source software and blatantly violating the license. Please do not buy AnDOSBox from the market.
[Android Apps and Games] savocado:
OK, I'll have to get it by alternative means then!
[Android Apps and Games] greatht:
hehe, I agree.

I just found this while I am publishing aDosBox 0.2beta.

It even uses a similar icon(or almost the same with aDosBox)
[Android Apps and Games] erlern:
You are one of the devs on aDosBox??? :) Congrats on the new release! A really long wait... but worth it :)
[Android Apps and Games] erlern:
And for those who don't know... aDosBox is heaps better than this AnDosBox... try it out on the Market!!!! :) I give it a 5 star rating! :)
[Android Apps and Games] wujekandrzej:
uh, it's like you've just said - i didn't try andosbox... because its really way better than all other dosbox ports for android. i tried adosbox today to see if it improved, but it's still no comparision to andosbox - it's not even half as smooth.

lol that's quite funny, because adosbox just uses the original logo of adosbox, and andosbox is just slightly different - and you're accusing him of something? LOL
[Android Apps and Games] erlern:
What games are you running on it? I have tried Airborne Ranger, Xenon 2, Magic Candle, Bard's Tale, Rogue, 2400AD, Altered Beast, Tyrian 2000, Ultima 4 and 5, Dune and none of them have any lag in them. I tried Andosbox and don't think that I'll support it at that price.

I'm using a snapdragon device btw.
[Android Apps and Games] kaijura:
Really hope aDosbox gets more releases out. Hope I could contribute somehow, but I have no clue how the software is being developed.

I tried adosbox recently after finding out that Raptor was available for the Apple Store.

aDosBox runs raptor too, but for my device it doesn't work that great yet. I still have hope.

Meanwhile, I found out that even though the developer of aNdosbox is charging 4 bucks, since it's under the GPL, people who paid for it are free to redistribute it. There is a 1.0.1 version hovering around on the net. If you can't find the link then let me know. But, andosbox can't even run some of the stuff adosbox does.
[Android Apps and Games] greatht:
hm..... Can't understand here. Which one had you really tried?

:) Let me clarify what I was talking about:

aDosBox 0.1 alpha was published in Feb 2010 and its logo is a combination of DosBox icon and Android robot icon. (just google aDosBox)

If you compare it with anDosBox icon, you will understand what I want to deliver.

PS: aDosBox is a hobby, not a product and it will never be. All credits belong to DosBox's author and the person who ported SDL to android platform(i.e. Pelya).

Everyone who wants to contribute and make dosbox run better on our android devices is welcomed to join us. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] int_19h:
They do provide the source now, though you have to prove that you've got the binaries from them (which seems to be fine per GPL - they only have to provide sources to people they distribute the binaries to, and not just everyone; though of course others should be able to share once they get sources for themselves).
[Android Apps and Games] erlern:
Thanks for the minor updates over the last week. If I may suggest something, I find that it is a bit hard to see what I type on the screen because the virtual keyboard opens up and covers most of the screen, is it possible to show just the command prompt line above the virtual keyboard instead of having to hide and re-open the virtual keyboard to see whether input is correctly made? Thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] kblood:
Much work has been put into AnDosBox, and it is the best DosBox emulator by far at the moment. It has games working better on the Android than I could make them run on any of my PCs, which is quite a feat.

Its mouse control is really great. The only way to do a mouse control on a touch phone without having a bluetooth mouse and tv-out of some kind.

I really did not think the old dos games could run that well on an Android phone (mine is Samsung Galaxy S), but I do hope that others manages to make emulators run better as well, so we might see emulators with a better kind of Joystick support. Although the kind he has implemented is in the direction of what I would want to do for a onscreen joystick. Being able to just place your thump anywhere, and move up, down, left or right.

But it would probably be easier with a on screen firebutton as well, which is seems to lack. And being able to not have the joystick area in the middle of the Screen.

The Pelya stuff in aDosBox is nice, and it is probably able to run some games that AnDosBox cannot. But so far most games seems to run in AnDosBox better than I would have anticipated.

And they are finally sharing the source. I will try to ask him for it myself.
[Android Apps and Games] kblood:
I finally got to test aDosBox properly. For some reason I only got the SDL options to work with the menu button at first, and it sure helps being able to see the keyboard, quit button and all that. Since I cannot write anything in the developer section yet, I will post some feedback here:

Mouse support, I cannot get it to work at all. I have found that andosbox has a good mouse support, while adosbox has a good joystick / arrowkeys support. I am guessing I might be able to get the mouse to work if I make the Joystick control the mouse, but what I have come to find as the best method of controlling the mouse in games using a real mouse, is using the screen as a touch pad. But it seems a problem with Pelya to make that work properly.

Also an option to hide the on screen controls while they are still active would be nice.

Mouse calibration, that part might be the reason why the mouse does not work at all for me, but when going into it, I cannot select the screen. I can touch the 4 corners and it just goes into the Menu when I press menu after.

http://anddev.at.ua/load/emulators/dosbox_0_74/2-1-0-12

This one seems to show how that was meant to work, but I never really found a good way to make it work. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S, so the bottom right corner goes into my menu key. Top right goes into the back key. The DoxBox for Android I just linked has attempted to make the keymapper available on the menu key, which seems to be rather fail, since at most settings it is impossible to get out off again. Your menu seems to work much better, but after going into the SDL settings it seems to be lost, and only the SDL is on the menu key.

I am looking into Android development myself, I hope I can help some day, but I am still only just learning my way around the SDL and making some tutorial apps to get started. Good luck with the aDosBox project though.
[Android Apps and Games] kaze00:
They denied my request for the source code because I refunded the app. Sigh.
[Android Apps and Games] aaronmjr:
This may be the wrong area to ask, but in using aDosBox I'm having trouble starting the keymapper since my android on-screen keyboard obviously doesn't have "ctrl" or F-keys. How are the rest of you mapping keys for playing games? I have an Xperia Play running 2.3.3. With the stock settings but checking the box for having "Arrows/joystick/dpad" I can get the directional buttons to work, but can't map the triangle/square/x/o buttons to what I need for Commander Keen 4. Any help?
[Android Apps and Games] darkelfv:
I have a droid incredible.

That said I tried adosbox and it works, but pretty slow.

I looked up many reviews and finally broke down and bought andosbox. (15 min refund if you don't like it made the deal sweet)

I have to say for the games i have played andosbox is 200% better, smoother more polished system. I been playing masters of orion 2 and anvil of dawn. Well, no lag on andosbox and while they are playable on adosbox, the difference is worth the 4 bucks.

So you get what you pay for in this instance. I like both programs and sdl is only currently supported by adosbox so it has that going for it as well.

So thanks for creating these awesome ports. I do recommend using adosbox to see how it runs on your phone before getting andosbox. Just i find i like the tilt and menus in andosbox better (plus default speed boost)

-------------------------------------------------

Also to respond to the game pad question, you can get a blue tooth joystick. or look on the net / market for gamepad keyboards. or on screen game pads. loconet sells one but i bet there are free ones as well.

I have the htc droid incredible so hid bluetooth is not working, but there are some joysticks out there that still work.

If you want alternate onscreen buttons. You will have to find one in the market.

Basicly you change your default keyboard to replace it with one that has the inputs you need.
[Android Apps and Games] gururise:
Can you post the sources to the 1.1.9 version?

I posted the apk here, and even though it's GPL'ed software, my post was removed and I received an infraction from XDA.

BTW, it seems the reason that AnDosBox runs faster than aDosBox is because AnDosBox has a permanent framedrop hardcoded. Can someone try 1-3 framedrop on aDosBox and compare? I suspect the speed would be identical!

Hi, I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong area. How do you bring up the in-app menu on the Samsung Galaxy S7? The menu (two squares) button tries to go to split-screen mode and the back button exits the app. Long-pressing either does not work. The Assistant Menu option (under Accessibility) does not work either. I can't even bring up the keyboard at the DOS prompt. Pressing the menu button worked on the S4 and long-pressing it worked on the S5, but no idea how to bring up the menu on the S7. Any ideas?? Thanks in advance!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcargil05:
Is it possible to sync your contacts and calender with your computers? It was simple with winmo. I haven't found a good way with Android. Is there a way? Sync with my work computer ok, sync at home deletes something. next just the opposite. Can't seem to keep track of what is new, changed, old, same.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnhouse:
I use Google for my Contacts and Calendar, so it is never out of sync. For work, I use Moxier Mail or Touchdown, depending on my mood, and both sync my work calendar and contacts with no issue.

Are you using Exchange for your home calendar, or are you wanting to integrate your Google and Exchange calendars together, for example?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidTh3ory:
I run a business and my Thunderbolt makes it 100% easier. I use gmail... So of course everything syncs without me knowing it Contacts, Calendar, Docs, etc. Plus it allows me to scan anything, convert it to a PDF, and hit print from anywhere and it comes out my printer at my office or my house. It also allows me to FAX docs to anyone.

Now, for those using a work email address VIA exchange or similar it doesn't make it that easy. It will however allow you to sync your contacts and calendars VIA the phone. Or to keep it the same as using Windows Device center the HTC users have HTC Sync.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilogik:
+1 on exchange, works perfectly. It even syncs my contact photos from exchange to the phone.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcargil05:
I should have said that I'm using launcher Pro and not Sense. I'm using Outlook both at work and at home. Work has 2 accounts, Gmail and our .com Home is just Gmail. I only need the Gmail contacts and calender to sync properly. When I put the phone in the mix, it seems to loose track, of what is new and changed.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
I work for myself as a web and software developer and it's the primary way i keep track of contacts, message/email clients, keep track of tasks and in a pinch, ssh into remote servers to fix things when I am not near a computer.

If your phone is used for your work, you can also write it off as a tax deduction for both purchasing it and usage.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcargil05:
Yes, I use it for work. Like I said, I had no problem with winmo. It worked perfectly. What App are using on your phone to create appointments or tasks? What do you use to sync the task or calender to the computer or to google?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sethschmautz:
Tasks is one area that Android is weak out of the box. Otherwise, Android does a much better job of handling calendar items, contacts, and email in my opinion. I came from a winmo background also, and I haven't been happier after getting the original droid.

We are using exchange corporately, and my phone connects up perfectly to our exchange server to sync calendar items, contacts, and email. Personally and for a non-profit I work for, I use 3 different gmail accounts to organize calendar items, contacts (literally 3-4000 contacts total), and two gmail email accounts. The device works perfectly.

For gmail, just use the built in gmail, calendar, and contacts (although AOSP contacts is better than sense contacts, IMO). For exchange, an app like Moxier mail, Roadsync, or Touchdown will give you access to your tasks (if necessary). If tasks are not necessary, the built in email, calendar, and contacts work great.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcargil05:
I guess maybe I'm doing something wrong then. I entered an appointment in my phone today. A minute later it popped up on my computer. Great! I go home and sync my phone to my computer and it deleted the appointment out of my phone and off of google. My contacts are a mess. I have 3 or 4 of everything. Some with photos, some without. Some with Facebook numbers. Every time I sync my phone I get a popup with 15 overdue appointments. I dismiss them and next there they are again. Maybe I should try getting rid of the google calender and contacts?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
I just use google calendar mostly and sync to my computer. There's also tasks apps out there that sync like http://www.rememberthemilk.com/ that will work with google calendar and standalone. They also have an application for android.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ecomaniac:
So you're using HTC sync, right? It sounds like you have the settings such that the home computer always takes precedence. Plug your phone into the computer then go find that HTC Sync setting and change it to sync to the most recent change (regardless of device/computer). Once done, the computer will be synced to the phone if that's where the last change occurred.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
I use my android for my work exchange account which keeps the corp email and calendar in sync with my work outlook. And events show up on the Google calendar. That's about it But it works great.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seandalton0:
+1 Touchdown for Contacts/Calendar/Mail. Totally worth the 20 something bucks I paid for it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcargil05:
The settings in HTC sync were correct, but I think it was HTC sync causing the problems. If I give it enough time, the phone updates google with contacts and the calender and google updates the computer. Then I use Taskos for the tasks. I quit using HTC sync for anything.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmdied:
Touchdown here. Works great.

I'm getting around a 2.5% drop per hour. Pretty regular phone use and email, it is my work phone so it gets its jingle on.

[EVO 4G General] totalanonymity:
If he does, he shouldn't be angry! He should at least know of rooting and be able to easily find out, if not already know, that it's easy to return it to normal. Of course, there's the possibility that you could "brick" the phone, but hey, that's all about user error and is just like when user error causes someone to drop the phone in water, lose it, or it gets stolen.

Hey guys. Going to London for the Wedding (I am CIO of www.TheNaturalSapphireCompany.com and a lot of press are using my sapphire rings) in 2 weeks and need a fast HSDPA battery powered device I can rent for a week to get my ipad and laptops on the net.
