Got mine loaded just fine. Now whats fun is that I have my Sega Cd music.. sound seems to be working too.. Hrm neat. Loaded up Lunar 2. Freezes on the WD screen.. but still its a start.

Bios files work just fine btw.

Oh yes.. protip In options, make sure you turn on that sram thing. Why? So when you use GENS and so, you can move your save files back and forth.

Found one issue tho which I just sent to him, hopefully fixed soon. Those of us who have "Back Alt" for our "O" button, this emu will only treat the mapping as "back" so we wont be able to use the O button till he fixes that.

Those who have button O mapped as BUTTON_B you should be ok. =)

Hey now! I have some great memories of playing Sewer Shark! That one came free with the sega cd right?

"Your new name is Dogmeat!"

5 minutes later..........

"Your new name is Beach Bum!"

"Why?"

"Becuase I said so."
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] PoorCollegeGuy:
Sewer Shark ftw! I would get a Sega CD emu just to play that horrible game again lol.

It's too bad my two favorite games for it, Lunar and Lunar 2: Eternal Blue were re-made for the PlayStation (who's emulator and ROMs I know own) otherwise I'd be all over there.

Snatcher crashed when you get into the police car, to go to your first destination, and Batman Returns seems to just freeze on the Sega logo...was looking forward to those two as well..
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] tekken179:
Give him chance as stated it's early beta progress the fact that it's been included is impressive :)

He is also looking to soon take on a GBA Emulator and add game gear to his md.emu :)

i've also asked him about making an atari 5200, 7800 and jag emulators :P but no reply

after now finding the correct bios (already on my damn desktop i had just forgot about with Kega Fusion) I have tested several games.

Sonic CD - Runs fine, background music comes and goes.

Batman Returns, if it get's past the sega logo freezing it freezes on first intro (cutscene)

Mortal Kombat - Same deal as batman.

Sega 5 in 1 - Same deal again

Sonic Megamix - gets to first loading screen and crashes.

However i suspect this issues to be resolved the dev is quite fast working and pushing updates :D follow him on twitter for his progress.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] RottenFoxBreath:
Yeah, it's no big deal, just hoped they would work without waiting, as my mega cd doesn't work on my plasma, and we threw the last crt telly out a month or two ago, so fancied playing them again..

Got a good deal on the mega cd, with silpheed, batman returns and snatcher, so can't grumble at the cost of the emulator, and waiting time..still got plenty others to play.

A Jaguar emu, now that would rock, Tempest was ace.

The Sega 5in1 you mention, was that the one with Streets of Rage, and others..the one that came with the megacd? and it also came with sol feaces.:o

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Only way to fix bad blocks is if you use a JTAG device costing up near 180 US dollars. Unless if you know someone who has one. Other than that your best bet is to partition an SD card and use that as the main storage space.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sad-Clown:
oooh, Finally I can post here :rolleyes:

Since the HTC Primo has similar hardware I thought that is not impossible to port its ROM to our lovely SE Xperia Arc.

So, I got the Leaked RUU (thanks for Football) and started working.

Actually, I couldn't touch the Sense but I realized that is possible.

I'm telling you what I did.

First, The BOOT.IMG:

I modified it to be compatible with our Arc. I had some problems with it one of them was the size, after I finished editing i found its size was only 3.7Mb and that is less than the correct size which needed by the bootloader but after adding filler file (thanks for DooMLorD) that wasn't a problem no more.

I also added a fully working CWM Recovery ;).

And end with 5.7Mb Boot.img.

Second, The ROM.ZIP:

After I replaced some files which allow the hardware and keys to work I had the same problem with the size, the system folder is about 500Mb and our device's ROM is only 350Mb !!! I believed that I can remove some files but once i got another idea i realized that wasn't the best solution so i moved the app folder from system to data folder I didn't give it a try before but i guess it will work.

Finally I wrote updater-script and that was difficult but always there is Google.

OK, now I'm facing problems with the file-system :(.

I've tried YAFFS2 after editing init files and finished with bootloop. :mad:

So I think this ROM needs EXT4 /system, /data and /cache .I'm about to format them with EXT4 but I'm a little afraid :o

So what you think guys ...?

Here is an idea:

Using SD card space might help..you can create partitions in sdcard and make a script that boots the os from SD card...is that possible??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] heihei_ivan:
do u mean dualboot like these?

http://lifehacker.com/5826050/how-to-dual-boot-multiple-roms-on-your-android-phone

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager.lite

sounds interesting but will that hurt sd card?:confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] KingWickedd:
You got that right :)

I got this idea from HTC HD2.The phone can boot two different operating systems,one at a time.And when I say different operating systems,it means os other than android.You can boot windows and android on the same phone.It stores the rom in SD card but I don't know if that's possible with Xperia arc.

Talking about the damage of SD card, I don't think it will cause any damage to SD cards.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aimcr7:
It's possible on X10, and possible for ARC too imho.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sad-Clown:
WP is close source unlike Android. We can't ported to another device.

We can boot two different Android ROMs but that is unwieldy cuz the SD card ROM will lag. Also repartition may render SD card unusable later on !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] heihei_ivan:
i think even class 10 sd card isn't fast enough for an operating system :o

and for damage to sd card i am afraid that running an OS from sd card would damage it. just like link2sd, the errors happen to the 2nd partition of my sd card randomly, rendering the filesystem read-only. :eek: and i have to manually check and fix it using gparted. not sure if similar things would happen if we run an OS from sd card :confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nickholtus:
you are wron

class 2 is fast enough:P

Look on the play development section: you can boot roms from sd-card:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] KingWickedd:
Yes, WindowsPhone OS is not open source but the point here is to boot the Rom from sd card.As the internal memory of Xperia Arc isn't sufficient, you can use sd card and boot the Rom.

Laggy Rom or damaged sd card are the secondary things and believe me, they are not valuable in front of Sense 4.0 :)

I think we can risk our sd cards if we want sense Roms in our devices,at least I can :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nickholtus:
we only tested dual boot with .ext2 images

so it will also boot .ext4
[Xperia Arc Android Development] stirkac:
most of you would not have rom on sdcard long enough to damage it. i have 2 years old sdcard that is regularly used and ran android for about 1/2 y on HD2 and it still works in Arc ;)

and class speed does not matter to OS, but rather its random r/w speed (which is usually longer on higher class sd), take a look at sdcards that are compatible with windows phone 7 (some devices did have it)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] heihei_ivan:
i didnt mean we cant boot rom from sd card:o

but speed is a problem :confused::confused: i dont know:cool:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] w1000i:
in Desire forum we have very big roms with small space in the memory

one solution to install some files of system into /sdext

or to repartition the 512 mb

and some guys increase the system partition from 250M to 384M or even more

so the data should be in the sd-card in the Ext partition
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jjdoctor:
really dont want to discourage you guys, if it happens it would be a miracle... But porting Sense UI to other phones is literally impossible.. it has been the target of samsung developers over the years and its simply not possible...

There was once a Sense 2.1 port for Nexus S and Galaxy S but that was so laggy.. not usable as daily driver and there were FCs and FCS everywhere

GS2 has the most developers support around (maybe second to HTC Sensation) ... they had tried their luck but failed...

Once in xperia x8 development, a dev named racht ported sense to the device. It runs well, kinda laggy and some if its basic function were missing, making it not suitable as an everyday phone...

Doomlord make it possible on X10.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] XnightX:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] stirkac:
i'm just getting a hang on Xperia as I switched several devices in few months, but I find this device very hard to develop on.

let me give you an explanation:

-lots of proprietary stuff around stock roms, CM has lots of bugs to be fixed too (especially ICS),

-kernel would would be based on CM, which I explained is buggy, working on half baked software is extremely hard to debug, so it would be best to start fom scratch, which is very time consuming

-baseband and camera interface is nothing like HTC at first sight..could be extremely problematic getting these working, and perhaps never in its full potential (ImageSense is out of question because it's hardware feat)

-SoC is good, same as Xperia arc (not S which is 8255T)

-every sense above version 3 is very hard to port, maybe skinned 2.1 would be better option.

-i'm not counting in any unexpected specifics which may delay development even further.

my toughts: about 10 months with skilled crew of 3 (good kernel developer, one who knows hardware& binary decompiling and one familiar with sense) working their free time and you MIGHT have something worthy to show.

now you may ask yourself if it's really worth it. you are probably better off with selling your device on ebay and buying One V on contract or without one(it's about 300euro in Slovenia off contract)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cyx2009cjw:
Great job! I really love sense ,but I'm not a Dev. I just want to buy a HTC one v, but I am just a senior high school student in China,that's to say I don't have enough money. . I hope you can finish it as soon as possible …XD
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cyx2009cjw:
In fact ,I thx you.

Do you know how excited I was when I saw your idea. I love the outline of ARC and the feeling of HTC SENSE, Now ,I just want to buy a HTC ONE V,but the money is the biggest problem for me a senior high student in CHina..

Your idea is very good to combine ARC and SENSE.

Thx you ,guy. I hope you can finish it successfully.

I have a question: How to solve the difference of resolution? You know ,there isn't any HTC phone use the FWVGA.

About the problem of system is too big, I think you'd better porting the ROM from HTC ONE V, ONE V's sense has no 3D,so it must be lighter.

That's all, I hope you know what I have said.. I'm interested in your idea, could you please share your process with me, Thx a lot. My email address:cyx.in.rain@gmail.com.

This is so true. At first i thought "damit is that thing big, i should bring it back to store" but when i put it in my pocket it fits and i can walk run and jump with the note in my pocket. So for me its the best phone ever until now iv'e ever had. I love the scree size, if i compare it to the holy iphone i have to laugh everytime about the size.....

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] heatfire:
On-screen controls in games always felt wrong on those small 3.5" phones.. on the S2 they felt better.. on the note they make sense..

sure smaller is sometimes better.. but when packing all this power into a device biggish is good;)

5.3" aint that big either, just a tad bigger then my wallet but alot thinner.

i followed some links in that blogg and came onto another planet where i was told the android UI makes us need larger screens cos else we wouldn't see anything if android got higher res.. font-size? bigger icons? felt like easy fixes...

kinda feels like iphonE lovers just digs deeper and deeper into something to hold on to.. to make them feel "i did the right choice, my phone is the best"

sad truth is my sister loves the Note but felt she couldn't buy it cos its to big.. she would feel looked at and laughed at.. so she settled with the S2.

i often tell ppl if they are not into computers, etc when they ask if they should buy an iphone or Note to buy an iphone, the safe no-one will laugh at your choice and no-one will question why. its kinda like putting on pants, no one will ask you why.

sorry for the rant..
