[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Is anyone here a fan of the Animal Crossing series from Nintendo? I definitely am and I started trying to figure out if there was a way to play one of these games on my Xperia Play. After doing a little research, I discovered that the original Animal Crossing started off as Animal Forest, a Nintendo 64 game released only in Japan in 2001. In 2002 it got ported to the Gamecube and released for all regions. I have a rom of the Nintendo 64 version that had been patched for English and actually got it to load in N64oid! Unfortunately, it crashed when K.K. told me to set the game clock. Bummer! I wonder if there are any patched versions floating around that can get past this first road block, or if there is some way to set the clock in N64oid that I can't seem to find.

Is anyone else interested in playing Animal Forest/Crossing on their phone?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] replicant101:
Don't speak of roms. You will be killed.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
Yeah I defiantly would! :-) Loved that game!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jlukek89:
N64oid is on the SlideMe market now for android, and is being updated soon with very high compatibility.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Lets hope that includes Animal Forest. I tried running Animal Crossing on the DS emulator earlier but it was so slow that it was unplayable. It would be nice if Nintendo and other developers would recognize the potential of the Play and create their own android stores where they could release some of their older titles that could easily be optimized for the Play. I would gladly pay $10 for a perfect port of Animal Crossing.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DeadlyDazza:
There's more chance of buying Mario Kart on the Playstation Store!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] replicant101:
We did get tetris.. wait, thats the market XD
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
@DeadlyDazza

No, not really. What I'm saying is that developers are missing a major opportunity by not releasing android-friendly ports of successful games they've created in the past. The nostalgia factor alone would drive the majority of sales.

The idea that Nintendo would voluntarily share revenue from any of their ip's with anyone is, well... Let's just say it will be a cold day in Hell.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] deepestblue:
Sounds to me like the emulator doesn't support the real time clock, necessary to emulate animal crossing...

Here is more info the real time clock, sounds like Animal Forest is the only game on the N64 to use the clock...

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
I wonder if this RTC patch only pertains to specific emulators. Worst case scenario, I think I could live with setting the clock whenever I played.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
the device is a few months old mate, just wait and the big names will come, you will never get nintendo games on the play but rumor is that sega plans to bring alot of retro games to android, word is, it was sega that got all the emulators taken off the market :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zerojay:
Sega is not unfriendly towards emulation. They hired Steve Snake, one of the guys behind one of the most popular Genesis emulators for PC, to emulate some of their classics for PC release in the past. Doesn't mean they weren't the reason the emulators got taken down, but just something I wanted to point out.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
sega may not be unfriendly towards emulation, but like any company they are unfriendly towards competition :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] rabbitsgotmail:
I used the japanese version of rom and got past the initial train ride but then crashed at entering village. N64oid should be getting that engine update anytime now. This is also my# 1 game for n64oid. Just a note, you can swap gamesaves between english version and japanes by changing gamesave file the same as the rom of language choice.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
I just tried the Japanese version and got the exact same result. Man, this sucks. How cool would it be to play this game? Pulling weeds, finding classic Nintendo games...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
anyone tried this on v2.0 of N64oid?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] nickzero:
I've done the same. N64 looked playable but when I got to that dog it asked me to set the time. So I pushed x or o something a bunch of times.. and it worked. But when I got on the train the game looked terrible and it wasn't showing text input/responses and the textures were spazing out and changing colors. I'm sticking to harvest moon on my snes emulator. :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Come to think of it, I don't think I have tried it since v2. Does anyone have an english patched version of the rom?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Anyone?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
It said in the updates, v 2.03 that Animal Forest was fixed and support for touchpad/gamepad was added! Any ideas?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
I believe the touch pad refers to tablets running honeycomb.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
kinda guessed it didn't refer to us, gutted :(
[A7 General] alicez:
I had the (moving) water for my background/wallpaper on my A7. However, my grandson must have done something because I do not see the water (moving/wavy) background/wallpaper.

Would anyone know how I can get that background/wallpaper back again?

Thank you.

Alice
[A7 General] smallba:
Goto any homescreen, press the menu softkey, and in the menu choose wallpaper, then select live wallpaper, it should be stored there.

Hope that helps

[A7 General] alicez:
Thank you.

I did choose the LiveWallpaper and then the Water/Leaves, which is what I had before.

Do you think that will use a lot the battery "power?"

Thanks again.

[Desire General] ducky1979:
hi, i was just wondering if someone can tell me the benefit of cm7 over a2sd please, im S-OFF so no problems changing, but just wanted to know the differences. and also which is better, insertcoin or rcmix??

cheers.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I think I read a possible speed increase with cm7

Different system partition sizes..
[Desire General] kazgor:
ok so what the big deal about the system partition being bigger.. what does that mean in real world case?
[Desire General] dexter93:
In the a2sd apps and dalvik are on sd because there is no much space

In cm7, apps are on SD ,but dalvik cache is on internal.

Dalvik is the virtual machine that runs on android to provide that java environment(behind that is Linux). Also internal memory is faster on read/write even from a class 10 SD card. That way we take advantage of the internals speed , which makes the Rom a lot faster. Also since the ext partition is used only for apps, there is more space available for more apps than a2sd ;)

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Cm7 does not officially support a2sd. Even if you have an ext partition on sd card, you also have to run a special script or program(strange issues occur here sometimes). This is why it's recommened to have cm7 hboot when you run cm7 rom, because with cm7 hboot you do not need a2sd because of the big /data partition.

Furthermore, as far as i know the difference between a2sd and a2sd+ is the following:

a2sd: only apps will be moved to sd card

a2sd+: apps and cache will be moved to sd card.
[Desire General] tropical cactus:
So. if we're in cm7, it would defeat the purpose if we use mcr scripts to move dalvik cache to sd? It's just that I noticed an increase in internal storage space. Is that not a good thing?
[Desire General] dexter93:
that is true indeed, but insertcoin gb cm7 used a2sd while the stock hboot uses a2sd+. I was talking specifically for these roms , not for cm7, but the cm7 hboot gingersense roms :D
[Defy General] lamer:
Hi beloved Defy users (you may decide yourself, who is beloved :D)

I just asked myself if it is a bad idea to use two different batteries, e.g. always or often drain one battery and then use the other (for me this is not an odd situation, if you think about camping or long trips with GPS).

So, the question is, what about those somehow built-in battery-calibration-algorithms of the Defy, or in general of such devices? Will they get a blow on their head when one batterie (the 5$ one from ebay, you know, those explosives) is behaving totaly different from the other (stock) one?

Is there a possibility to manage different batteries without getting wrong percentage-estimations? Or am I overestimating the whole situation?

Have a nice weekend :)

[Defy General] antony.ps:
wipe battery stats in recovery, menu advanced.

And this forum is for development, you should post this in general.
[Defy General] lamer:
Oops, sorry, I intended to. I hope some mod will move it :(

Wiping the battery stats with each change isn't gonna be usefull, as changing the battery after each cycle would mean having no stats at all.
[Defy General] skar_16:
Sorry to revive this old thread mates, I should post a new thread but I think it is better to stick on this and just ask the same plain noob question for the experts to answer..

And since there's no concrete answer yet to this situation I think I still need to ask again if there will be an issue if I will be using two batteries at the same time due to somewhat long journeys or long time playing of music while on the road so I really need some extra battery just in case my stock batt. will got drain which 100 percent I know will.. :D

Well I hope someone got some input about this..
[Defy General] paul.d051990:
How about a 2in1 battery?

And by 2in1 battery i mean a big, massive battery that you could buy along with a new back cover for it. I have seen in some videos that smartphone users often prefer to use a big bulky battery that offers more energy than to use 2 batteries. I would do so myself.
[Defy General] skar_16:
well I am on ICS right now, perhaps the battery bug won't occur on this ROM so perhaps changing from another batt from time to time won't confuse the system.
[Defy General] gcbxda:
silly. as soon as you get one of the huge batteries, you will want to use the stock one as a back up, and back to the original question :)

So, do i still have to worry about reset battery stats after the phone die with the big battery inside and i start it up again with the wimpy stock one?

And is there any issue with using the phone turned OFF to charge one battery after the other?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Unlockthatphone:
you can try this, otherwise google always helps

Insert a not accepted SIM Card and turn ON your phone

Your will display "phone restricted".

Select Cancel

Your LG will display "phone restriction code".

Enter the Unlock CODE

Select OK

hi every1, i was wondering if i could get some help, i flashed my p970 before with nova v8 and for that i had to downgrade it with kdz to v10a, just like u taught me on your tutorials, somehow i bricked it while changing the theme on emulator and i had to do an emergency flash. so now, i do everything like you guys tell us to do, just like i did for the first time, to get it from 10b to 10a, and nothing happens, it always fails. im sending you also a print so you can see what happens. thank you very much for all your help in advance :D

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shauna_cc:
So I've looked around the forums and done lots of searching and reading on overclocking and setCPU. I saw that you can fry your phone if it can't handle the overclock so I am way too scared of doing anything with it.

My question is, can someone show me step by step how to overclock my phone without frying it?

ROM: Trigger 3.3 final

Kernel: Bali 1.8.5

I read that you should do the automatic check thingy and I did that, the max is 1,000,000 and min is 100,000. Can someone also tell me what that means?

I'm just an uber noob and I'd really like to learn more.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duboi97:
1,000,000 = 1ghz

100,000=100mhz

Bali isn't an overclock kernel btw
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shauna_cc:
Okay so what does that mean exactly? The 1ghz and 100mhz?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abu-7abash:
That your CPU will run a min of 100mhz and a max of 1Ghz.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shauna_cc:
Okay, and I'm assuming the changing mhz at the top in big letters is what my CPU is currently running at? If that's the correct term.

And if I set it to the max, will that fry my CPU?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airhop7:
I've been running bullet kernal for awhile now. Currently using project v with bullet oced at 1.4ghz max and 200min. To answer your question, if you do oc your hardware will take a beating IF you do not manage your phone temperature well.. I have an extra vibrant that runs on oced at 1.4 24/7 and it is still fine cause I don't use it a hell of a lot like I would do to my 1ghz max and 100min vibrant. Eventually all hardware will die at some point but if you plan to keep your vibrant forever I suggest you don't oc but if you plan to replace or get a new phone in 1 or 2 years or until your contract ends then oc all you want. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shauna_cc:
Thank you, that helps a bunch. I'd like to keep my phone for a while so I'll leave overclocking to the experts. (:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Avatar28:
This has been going on for awhile now but it keeps getting worse and worse. My Tilt2 is extremely unstable. Usually after I flash it it will be fine for awhile, a couple of weeks maybe. After that it gets progressively more and more unstable. It gets less and less responsive, especially when waking, programs close without warning, I sometimes get graphical glitches. Hard locks are not uncommon. There have been days that I have had to soft reset my phone 3 or 4 times during the day.

Sense seems to be at least part of the culprit. Restarting it when things aren't responding seems to help sometimes. I sometimes have had some luck with deleting all of my text messages but that is only temporary at best.

I have been running Energy ROMs for the most part. Other ROMS I have tried have behaved similarly. XDAndroid is also abnormally unstable.

Could a bad SD card be causing the problems? I was trying to record a video with my phone a few days ago and it just suddenly stopped without warning. Trying to start the recording again resulted in it recording maybe a half second and then stopping again. Changing the storage to internal memory allowed recording normally. The camera app has also popped up a message about a new sd card being detected a couple of times recently.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sharkfinrazor:
May I add, that I have had enough with this phone. It's absolutely unreliable for any business worker who really needs a phone that can do simple tasks such as check emails, use bluetooth and of course, make a damn phone call - and it sucks at doing so.

I have flashed it with energy, and I must point out the dev has done a good job in appearance, other than that windows 6.1 - 6.5 is a TERRIBLE OS. I don't care what others have to say; if you can prove me wrong, then show a video that the phone is great.

I have numerous occasions where the phone just starts playing up. One huge annoyance is making calls. If someone calls you, who then later hangs up, the first thing you do is check who it is and then unlock the phone. But once you unlock it sometimes it doesn't allow you to press anything on the screen. You are then forced to reset the phone and wait for the boot screen and after that you are taken to the damn TIME REGION setting which takes an eternity to get to (like i already INPUT the place from before, why the hell must I remind the effin phone again?), afterwards even when you make a call, the call connects but you cannot hear ANYONE on the other line - thus you have to RESET the phone AGAIN!

Even once you are on a call, there are times that the phone decides to END IT. One may ask, "well your ear probably touched something" - great, nice to know my ear can act as a small stylus that SOMEHOW it can go slide all the way to the connectivity area and just by chance HIT the 'airplane' mode making the phone unavailable thus ending your call - this has co-incidentally happened to me already about 25 times!

I can keep going on, but check out my rant review on the got mine section here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=521271&page=173 - and read till the end.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
While it has tons of nice eye candy, Energy is not the best in terms of speed and stability. Try a more lightweight ROM, like Jackos. Simplicity is also excellent, although it hasn't been updated in a while. Both of these ROMs are more lightweight, and manage memory better than Energy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bowserb:
Got room for a "me too"? I've said it before. I don't know if the problem is HTC, Windows, or AT&T...or a combination of the three, but I have: Unreliable, painfully slow 3G; frequent dropped phone calls; Internet browser DNS failures; Wi-fi that seems to be just for show; and finally, a phone that is so slow to respond to any screen taps or button pushses that it tests my patience daily. Oh yes, I almost forgot, I have to reset the phone at least every other day and sometimes as often as twice in one day.

I still have ten months on my contract, and then it is goodbye to HTC, ATT, and Windows Mobile. I know you die hards here on the forum say iPhone is for kids and Windows is for business, but for my business, a working phone is what is important, and this ain't it!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
If you must go Energy though, stick with the "Reference" builds. It does't have all the apps you never use on it, just the important ones. Runs much better on speed and battery life for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dirty_johnny:
Although I will probably go with an android phone next contract cycle, windows mobile 7 (or whatever it's called) is actually quite nice.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sharkfinrazor:
Yep. I am using that. And I am still very annoyed with this phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bowserb:
Yes, WM7 might indeed be nice. However, in spite of the typical Microsoft promises, there are still few apps for WM 7...just like prior versions of WM. iPhone, Android, and Blackberry. If you don't have one of those, you are SOL.

BTW, avatar28, I just had to do my fifth hard reset since installing ROM 2.nnnn, so I took this opportunity to go back to the original 1.5nnn ROM. I had almost forgotten how much I lost with the "upgrade", not the least of which is the task manager icon on the home screen and the ability to select from All Programs without having to install each one on a button. Yeah, I no longer have a video recorder, but I'll deal with it (LOL)!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
You do realize WP7 is closed-source... right? That means not NEARLY as much development and such that you got on the Tilt2/TP2. Get Android and you will be able to customize even more than you did in winmo, and have a stable overclock.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sharkfinrazor:
Yeh but i rather get a WP7 than deal with the **** Wm6+ has to offer even if it does have more development. Even if it does, that doesn't entirely mean the phone is going to be very stable in performing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
Android is very stable and is much more aesthetically pleasing in my opinion than WP7. The possibilities with android are so much more vast than WP7. The whole windows phone as a whole is slowly deteriorating and I feel sorry that you don't understand that. It still has hardly any apps compared to Android or even iPhone. You seem like you want a stock operating system though, so I guess if you really want to stay away from modding and customizing your phone, get that 'soon to be dead' WP7.

Modding (open source) = Android

Stock (closed source) = WP7
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dirty_johnny:
Like I said, I will most likely go with an android phone next go around - specifically because of the open vs closed source. However - I know of some upcoming things that might also make the win 7 mobile even more of a nice package (for the right consumer). Or maybe it will lead to another release of a new mobile operating platform (ala win 7 trumping 6.5). Time will tell.

To be perfectly honest, I only have the win 6.5 phone because it was free with a 2 year. Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint are currently running a similar deal on win 7 phones. Free is a pretty compelling argument.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slapshot30:
It depends on how you order your priorities. In my opinion, my phone is something I use many many times every single day. I want to be able to constantly change it and be excited about it all the time (I got bored with winmo after a while). I just bought a non-contract android phone for around $400 and to me that is worth it, to others who don't care as much about modding and such, it probably wouldn't be worth it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dirty_johnny:
Dude, I can buy one whole tire for that amount :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Avatar28:
Hehe. I've been so busy lately I almost forgot about this thread. I haven't even been on the boards.

I don't know that I would say there are very few apps. They just announced the 20k mark at the end of May (doubled in about a month). It's not a lot compared to the 300k or whatever on iOS but a lot of those are basically clones of each other anyways. A lot of iOS and 'Droid apps are just packaged HTML5 anyways and will be easy to port if/when WP7 gets some traction.

I think I may give a different ROM a shot. Something without CHT2 since I think that's some of the problem and I've gotten to where I don't even bother customizing it anymore because of hard resets/reflashes.

I think there is a lot more application development on WP7. But you're right about there being a lot less development of customizations and the like. Maybe with Mango we'll get more adoption and that will help things.

Honestly, I really want a new phone but I'm trying to hold off. I really want to see what Mango and the new version of Android bring to the table and I want some better hardware than the current crop of WP7 offerings. Something with specs similar to the T-Mo G2 maybe.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ashmont:
I have to agree this phone is a disappointment. Part of the problem is that it is underpowered for the software it runs i.e. WinMo/Sense 2.5. I find that a process called GWES keeps expanding over time since last soft reset and consumes a large slab of runtime memory. The effect of this is to make things like the camera really slow to load. I don't know if it is a memory leak but it seems rediculous having a process that doesn't have some restrictions on its memory consumption.

I was having massive problems with Standby Of Death but replacing the SIM card seems to have fixed that much to my surprise.

I have to say that I look enviously at iPhone users who press something on the screen and the response is practically instantaneous compared to the sluggish performance of WM6.5. The WP7 phones are supposed to perform well but I guess the generous minimum specs mandated by MS have a lot to do with that.
