Hey can i ask a question? i have been using My Boy now and i want cheats for my pokemon emerald and i searched for it in google and i had no results including the emulator . Can you help me how to put cheats and give me cheat codes? pleeeease
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
What a coincidence!

I have myboy too

And im playing pokemon emerald

And i wanna know how to use cheats!!!

/==(CyberScopes)==\
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Techniques:
My boy emulator uses mostly gameshark codes so search up your game then gameshark codes. Then you go into the game, press the menu button, cheats, New cheats. Set the cheat name, and put in the code and press back. And that's about it.

I typed this by hand.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
Thanx

/==(CyberScopes)==\
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] j-skeelz:
If you're really onto cheating , use GameBoid. GameBoid is a GBA Emulator that runs Gameshark , Action Replay and CodeBreaker codes you can use pretty much every codes you see online as long as it is compatible with the said code runners. you can download it at SlideMe . com (sorry i cant post links yet). Hope this helps

Just tried this on my Nexus 4, it runs great. I'm actually really tempted to get a Moga now... with physical controls this would be epic.

One quick question though, sorry if it's a little noobish. How do I stop the application when I'm done? I'm using the free one and it seems to keep running in the background. I know emulators can be a little flaky so I'm not sure if I should force-close it. I'm just worried it might be running my battery while idling.

Edit:

Found it. You hit the back button and it brings up a scroll-down menu (which includes an "exit" command). Thanks again for showing me this, I loved the old game boys!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] tobi1449:
Does anyone know if it has a rtc?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] HEZAiKU:
Droidemu have many emulator inside it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
Yes it has a working real time clock feature, as well as gyroscope/tilt/solar sensor and rumble emulation.

---

This emulator is already the best most feature rich one available on the market and after the next update, it will be Xperia PLAY optimized too. :good:

If you haven't already bought it, I would strongly recommend the purchase.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] |SavageD|:
If it had multiplayer through bluetooth or wifi I'd buy it, until then, i'll stick with Gamboid.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zweyhand:
yeah, i tried many gba emulators, but only myboy gave me all effects my games have, like final fantasy Vi on chocobos or airships, on other emulators half of screen becomes blank, but with myboy it works 100% on my games, so i preffer myboy.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cloud_walk3r:
Sound like a good gba emulator. I'm using gameboid but may give this a try.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
New version out:

• Add option "Auto save & load" (off by default). It will automatically save game to a new slot named "Auto save" at exit points, and load it back on next start.

• iCade controllers support.

• Xperia PLAY optimized.

• Allow to define a separate screen layout for when the hardware keyboard is slid out.

• Add confirmation dialogs for reset/close.

• Fix turbo buttons not working for some games.

• Fix a crash when OpenGL is enabled on certain devices.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ghub1:
I just started using this emulator. I like to use a couple of game shark codes. But whenever I go to input master codes it tells me

I'm trying to use codes on Pokemon Leaf Green.

When I go to see if the code worked nothing changes and the code didn't stick.

Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Also there is an option to add BIOS. What would adding a BIOS file do to help the game experience?

Thanks

*EDIT fixed Spelling Error
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] xzafa:
So this is better than Gameboid? Hmm..will give it a test

One of the extra features on My Boy is the option to render with Open GL or to disable it
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Zer0sky:
It has finally been done. This now has link cable ability on the same device and will soon have it available with bluetooth and wifi. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEwMiwiY29tLmZhc3RlbXVsYXRvci5nYmEiXQ..

I now recommend this gba emulator above all others indisputably.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] X-Giga:
I love this app. Back then when I was using a Xperia X8, this app is what I used to play Pokemon games :P
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
I've been saying for a long while that this completely destroys all other GBA emulators, link cable emulation just cements that!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] amnher:
The new version is released for my boy! and has link support
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BlacklightXero:
I have been enjoying this emulator a lot, but I have one problem, and I actually think it somehow has to do with the way Cyanogenmod is interfacing with the app. Anyway, my games keep repeatedly freezing, hanging up, and becoming unresponsive, and there will be a little single frame flash of black in the shape of a half-circle. This happens pretty frequently, and I can't find any common variables to pin down when and why. Also, the screen will dim and light back up while this is happening every few seconds, usually followed by "My Boy! Is not responding, do you wish to submit a report" or something like that. Not sure how this is happening. I've tried different video settings, adding a BIOS file, turning off all input other than the virtual keyboard, disabled OpenGL Rendering, changed the number of Frame Skips. Basically, I've touched on every setting in there, and uninstalled-reinstalled about 4 times now with no luck. Any ideas?

By the way, this problem seems isolated to my Galaxy S3 running Cyanogenmod 10.1.2, because I cannot find anyone else having this issue, so I still would recommend this emulator! My wife runs it on her Galaxy Nexus flawlessly and it runs like a champ on her phone! Love it!

UPDATE: Every time I uninstall it, Cyanogen reboots.

UPDATE: The Report says "Caused by ANR keyDispatchingTimedOut" if that helps.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Pizza_user:
I cant help u guy sorry i don't use cyanogen
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] konstruktor:
sorry i never had a problem with this sensational emulator (tried it on stock gb, stock ics, cm9, cm10).

perhaps your android rom is kinda screwed or messed up.

curious

I have a question about the wifi link. Does it refer to two phones playing that are both connected to the same connection, or can they play no matter where they are? I'm curious because me and a childhood friend who is in a different state wanted to duel each other in yugioh lol. Cheesy, yes! But so nostalgic ! Thanks in advance for any possible clarification.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] :
My Boy! Won't save

I've tried to run MyBoy! on a Samsung Glaxy Ace (2.3.6), but I've had several issues which I couldn't find online:

With Pokémon Versione Esmeraldo (ITA version of Emerald): the game loads, plays at nice speed, but when I try to save with the ingame menu (Start>Save>Yes) it hangs there, music playing as usual but on a saving-that-doesn't-save loop. After reseting and loading the game I get the same result.

With Yoshi's Universal Gravitation (EUR): I'm trying to calibrate the screen movement -tilting the phone left and right at the start of the game, it never seems to get calibrated, any tips for doing so?

I've thought about what could be wrong here -the Bios file? (if anyone has a recommended version, I could search for it), the phone itself? (maybe adjusting the gyroscope again will do the trick),... but no luck so far.

On a bright note, Zelda Fushigi no Boushi (JAP version of Minish Cap) seems to work and load :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] illostos:
same here.

I played ff4 advance. When I try to save right at the beginning from the game, nothing is happening (The A/B Button disapeares, but it doesn't save the game AND is doesn't create a battery file). What is the problem? When i try this on the PC with VBA, everything works fine.

Every other game can i save. Just this one is making problems.

I bought the Full version a few days ago and it Works like a charm on my U8800-51, but I have a question. Is there a way to apply "themes" to the buttons? I mean something like this:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] EnterTheWu:
lanscape mode

also a noob question, and i know im late to this party. cant figure out how to set custom button layout in landscape? even bought the full version thinking i needed to create a custom profile for landscape, but it still isnt working, just brings me to the portrait screen. i only play in landcape on my note 3 so yeah. anyone have any insight to my problem?

Sound problem My boy

Hi guys , i used My boy for like ... 1 year on my galaxy ace ! Now i changed to a sony xperia M2 and there's a problem with it , the sound always play a little bit late when i play , like when you use a menu or do anything , the sound doesn't match what happens exactly in game ... And that's annoying ... Anyone knows why ? or had this problem before ( i didn't install anything on my phone yet ! )

Help

OK, I am using a Gameboid emulator on my Galaxy Note 3. An people say open the menu to add cheats, yet when I open menu it has no cheat option? How do I get cheats?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] MCorgano:
I am using the pro version and it works well. The touchscreen interface on my galaxy note 2 (at&t) are a bit too sensitive but that's liveable.

My issue is I have a logitech bluetooth keyboard, and for the love of me I cannot get the keybinds to work correctly. Setting start -> enter, select -> shift, and most buttons works fine. However setting Gameboy A -> x and Gameboy B -> z are not working for me. If I press x it will not press A on the gameboy. If I keep pressing x over and over one in every 20 times it works.

Same story with the left, right, auto GB A, and auto GB B buttons - They work when set to buttons like shift, tab, enter... but do nto work when set to any letter.

I also want to note setting fast forward to F (or any letter) ALWAYS works.

Any ideas?

(Typed on my phone, using the keyboard in question, zxasqw everything works fine)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nick1994:
Not sure if the question that began this post in 2012 was answered, but yes you can simply copy the save to and from VBA on PC and MyBoy for Android. I'd say 90% of the GBA emulators on the Google Play store use source code taken directly from VBA and the .sav file type is universal with most GBA emulators in general.

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------

I've had that issue with older and cheap game pads. From what I can tell the keyboard or gamepad in my case doesn't register keystrokes on the emulator do to some incompatibility. Look online for a bluetooth keyboard or gamepad that specifies Android in the title. You'll have better luck finding one that works with games.

This guide shows you how to root and install a ROM.

I am NOT responsible for bricked devices or dead sd cards etc.

Hi,

Today i'm going to show you how to root and update your Galaxy S.

In this guide we flash custom kernel and rom.

But first, remember the drivers http://www.filefactory.com/file/3nhyqmo40111/n/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.zip

Now the rooting part.

1.Download Semaphore kernel http://semaphore.gr/downloads Choose the first one. (Semaphore_2.7.4.tar)

2. It may look like a zip file but it is not. So do not extract the tar file.

3. Open Odin (if you don't have it download it from http://ul.to/o2xcp01n )

4. Switch off the phone and wait for vibration. When it vibrates it is completely off

5. Make sure you have drivers.

6. Put your phone to download download mode. To do that press vol down + home + power.

7. Now your phone should be in download mode. Plug it to computer (make sure odin is still open)

8. Click PDA tab and choose Semaphore_2.7.4.tar.

9. Click start

10. Wait

11. Wait more and then there should read Success! in odin

12. Now you can disconnect the phone.

13. Finish!

Now we are ready to install a custom ROM!

First you need to download a ROM. I recommend Cyanogenmod because it is popular, it has many features and it is stable. Here's the link http://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/49867/cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip

1. Download the ROM.

2. Put it to your phone's internal sd-card

3. Download gapps http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

4. Put it to your phone's sd-card

5. Reboot to recovery (vol up + home + power)

6. Wipe data/factory reset

7. Wipe cache

8. Advanced > wipe dalvik cache

9. Install zip from sd-card

10. Choose zip from sd-card

11. Select cm-10.2.0-galaxysmtd.zip

12. Confirm

13. Wait

14. Wait more

15. Wait even more

16. Go back

17. Don't reboot

18. Install zip from sd-card

19. Choose zip from sd-card

20. Choose gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

21. Confirm

22. Wait

23. Reboot

Now it's ready! You made it! You rooted and updated your phone. Be proud!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
This is not correct guide.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] monkeywithbanana:
Why?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
here are the reason:

1. While installing jw4 in step 6 you have ask to boot in recovery and recovery only available when you have flashed a kernel which supports it.

2. If i already have recovery them why i should flash jw4 again and then again root it and flash the ics.

3. You have asked to put rom in internal sdcard and gapps in sdacrd... they should both be in same card else a new user might get confuse.

4. You haven't mention if user ends in bootloop what should he do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlwaysDroid:
I think this guide is just fine , go make your one if there's a problem^. Good job OP.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] monkeywithbanana:
I meant to write internal sd card for gapps and my sgs had stock recovery without root.

Have you ever heard about android stock recovery 3e?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] monkeywithbanana:
And i forgot to write what to do if bootloop And fortunately nobody asked what to do if bootloop and if someone asks, i'll reply and explain what to do.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] markus3650:
bakcup /efs

I didn't acutally read the whole thing so I don't know wether it's corret or not, but I think you should definitly advise the user to backup the /efs folder to prevent issues with IMEI/baseband.

(searched your guide for /efs and didn't find it anywhere)

Any ideas on how I could fix this?

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] monkeywithbanana:
Were you flashing the Rom or gapps before getting the encryption error? It's possible that the zip files are corrupted or they have some errors. Try to redownload the files.

CF-Root is is available for almost every Samsung SGS stock rom(maybe for every stock rom) so you just need to tell me your baseband and i'll give instructions to do that for your ROM.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] pirati81:
I think you have to reinstall stock rom via odin and then root and flash again ics or jb. I would recomend CM10 stable with semaphore kernel. anyway i too had a bootloop some days ago after clearing dalvik cache. I reinstalled again gb2.3.6 and installed CM 10 without clearing dalvik cache. No bootloop at all phone is running great.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sevenxl:
Thanks very much for this, easy to follow but I have hit a sticky part.

I followed each part and got to step 16. I'm stuck at the part below:

17. Don't reboot

18. Install zip from sd-card

19. Choose zip from sd-card

20. Choose gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

21. Confirm

22. Wait

23. Reboot

Now it's ready! You made it! You rooted and updated your phone. Be proud!

I didn't reboot (17) but cannot find where gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip is? What does this do as all seems ok?

Thanks in advance if you can help.

So it isn't necessary to download and install ClockworkMod if i follow these steps?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlwaysDroid:
No you're all good. Root with super one click.

Or just flash a custom kernel, and then flash ROM from recovery.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yoboo:
Thanks!!!

And one last question, if something went wrong, or i don't like CM10, returning to stock gb is as easy as installing de stock rom via odin?

Which kernel do you recommend me?

Thank you again!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlwaysDroid:
Yeah, the stock rom can be found on samfirmware.com

And yes, just flash in pda with odin, repartition checked. Then boot to recovery and wipe data / factory reset. That easy.

As for kernel, stock cm10 is very good, i prefer devil which is biased towards performance. Semaphore is a good balance, not for me though. EDIT: you meant for flashing... Umm semaphore or devil haha
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hunter68:
Thanks for guide.

I did it on my Captivate with corrupted (or damaged) internal sd. ROM installed on partitioned external sd.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Torlugic:
Re: [GUIDE] How to root and update your Galaxy S to ICS

This guide is safe there are many other guides for the I9000 easiest way to root is to flash a cf kernel.

JW4 is where he is referring to the stock firmware that's possibly on the phone you are attempting to root. I had to use cf 3.7 for my 2.3.3 kg3 I9000m (bell Canada).

Look under settings, about phone, baseband (modem), firmware version(?). Baseband and the firmware should both have for example JW4. As long as you match up the rooted kernel with your firmware you should have no problems flashing you're phone with Odin.

In case you mess up go here[ URL]www.samfirmware.com[/URL] and grab the stock firmware and flash with Odin

Just pick a guide you feel comfortable with and study it till you feel comfortable enough to flash your phone.
