I thought I was the only one. I'm fairly tech savy & have not been able to figure this one out. They should really release this app with complete detailed instructions.

Still not working on my EVO.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] darkside86:
So I have some games running, but when I come across a ecm game and i drop it into the unecm.exe file and it extracts, Where the hell does it extract to? I've looked everywhere on my laptop and I can still only find the 7z file, I can't find the extracted .bin file anywhere, and I know it extracted because it said it did in the little black box.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thevegasbomb:
I might try another BIOS...I've tried like 20 Tom's lol and i have saved all my data.bin on my comp as (nameofgame).bin too..

Any other suggestions maybe..someone said a market fix helped but my markets already ok..or should i just try..it can't hurt right....?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] baturro:
Did you ever get an answer? I'm new at this and I'm stuck at same spot. Any help is appreciated.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] doktabl4ck:
Hi I just signed up on this forum earlier today, and I'm looking through this thread and people seem to be getting stuck about the same spot. I have read every post here and this is the only problem I have with these instructions is 1. when the ECM program is downloaded and the ECM folder is unzipped aren't all the subfolders and text files unzipped as well? 2. when placing a .7z file on the unecm it does nothing. (I know because I tried this for 5 hours yesterday) and 3. when trying to figure this out and following numerous guides (i.e. Android Tapp, Android and Me, Droidforums.net, Android Guys, blah blah blah) there seems to be a step missing, because when you drop the .7z file on the ecm first and then the unecm it does nothing but add the extension .ecm and then remove it (so what's the point?). After tinkering around with the files and trying to get my psx to recognize there is a file in the games folder, I changed the file extension on the files myself to .bin and then used Ice Tea to compress and moved the files to my Droid. Finally the psx recognized they were there and I was able to select them, but when I go to start the game I get nothing but a black screen with no sound. I've got a friend who has tried to get this working on his Nexus as well, but he can't get his psx to read the files exist in his folder so I know it's not just me or anyone else that's having issues. Does anyone know what's wrong or what's missing from these guides? Any help would be great...Thanks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] doktabl4ck:
I believe a friend has found the answer to the psx problem most of us are having. Since I'm a new user I can't post links but if you shoot me an email I will gladly send you the link. I haven't tried it yet but this looks like it would work 95-100% of the time. Let me know how it goes!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] coobs:
If you guys are stuck on here. And you're sure you have the right game file "gamename.bin.ecm" then do the following:

Open up two windows. One window is where you extracted the ECM program, and the other window is your game file.

Now DRAG, literally DRAG, the game file to the ECM folder, keep dragging and drop it RIGHT ON TOP (uncem.exe should be highlighted) of the file called "uncem.exe" (application).

Now a console window should pop open and stay open until it's done converting your file.

If you look where you game file is, there should be a new file now, called "gamename.bin" only.

Now take this file, "gamename.bin" and put it on your phone, and load it from psx4droid.

Hope this helps.

Is there any good test roms? I cant find any online for FFVII, could someone PM me? All the downloads are like 5kbps.

Im doing FFVIII right now, is that known to work? The graphics are a lot better than FFVII
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lost2030:
What I did was I downloaded a FF7 disc 1 rom. It was a rar file of almost 400MB. I unzipped it with winrar. Once it was unzipped it turned into a 7zip, not sure why, but w/e. So I unzipped the 7zip as well!!

Once the 7zip is unzipped a file comes out that ends in ecm. Download the unecm.exe program and DRAG the ecm file (the one you got from the unzipped 7zip) onto the the unecm.exe and a window will pop up. Once it reaches 100%, you'll have a pefectly fine .bin file that the psx emulator will read.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] t3chn0v1k1ng:
I had the same problem and reading this whole thread it all makes sense.

unecm is only to convert .ecm files. if you aren't dragging a .ecm file into the little program, then it opens, realizes you have no actual business putting a .rar or .iso in "unECM" and just closes

if you have lots of rars like pt 1-10 double click one of them and open it with winrar or what have you and extract the .iso or .bin

those should play without conversion.

also be sure to check you downloaded a ps1 game. I accidentally did a ps2 game and spent the last hour trying to get a 4.3gb ISO onto my evo and it didn't let me.

hope this helps

rom hustler is a good site for roms, also nowtorrents dot com is seeming to work great

if you have the original game of course
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] doktabl4ck:
Yea I got mine working yesterday too. There was a step missing from ALL the guides that have been posted anywhere. Easiest way to do it is download Winrar (which is free) and whatever purchased game you want. Extract the main folder, sub folder, and file using Winrar (any book with a "belt" around it will be the zip folder/file). Once the game has been extracted (which should look similar if not the same as gamename.bin.ecm), drop it on the unecm and the gamename.bin.ecm with be converted to gamename.bin. Once you've done this you can put the gamename.bin on your sd card in your games folder. You'll want to rename the game that gets extracted. ALL of mine extracted and default named to data. If you have multiple disc games similar to Final Fantasy 7 or Star Ocean you'll want to name the game and disc number. Have fun! Oh and to cover my butt, I don't urge illegal downloads and am not responsible for how or what you do. Buy your games and you'll be safe :D

Help for those who need it

I sat around for like four hours ok to be honest like 6-8 and finally was trying different things and found out adw launcher is why ur menu button messes up and also that if your phone is rooted please go back to stock or unrooted and then try it will work like magic im still a noob but im catchin on quick
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Tricky103:
I had that problem, I think you maybe using a separate folder /sdcard/psxoid/game**. Don't do this place the .bin file in the psxoid folder (the same folder as the schp1001.bin, then rename the new.bin to the game name.bin. Worked for me.. I got Destruction Derby 2 up and running. The sound is not very good though, very stuttery.. Maybe the original game was like that also..

Anyone remind me of the good old PSX games please, I am going to try final fantasy,

I now have 160gb of PSX games.. I don't think I will get through them all.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] CapStone:
I believe there is a wiki dedicated to game comatability for this emu I'm not sure of the address but I'm sure one of you can find it. It would be great if everyone contributed to it instead of adding to this topic for how to get it running as opposed to game comparability cheers
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Biggest Fro:
Ok, so I keep getting Archive errors and other errors when trying to download a ROM. It will get partially downloaded then fail.

Whats the best site to get ROMS from? And are all the ROMS >300mb? Might have to get that 16gb card sooner than I thought!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pupoy11:
After the 5th try I got Digimon working with my Samsung Galaxy S. The ECM converter does not work on my windows 7. It appears and disappear. I downloaded digimon world 1 from said site. About 6 winrar files. Extracted them. Then extracted the consolidated file. 3 seperate files came out. One image file with a CD icon and 2 other files. I copied them to my "psxoid file" along with the bios file. I also turned off quick start or fast load in the settings area. Crossed my fingers and viola!!! I guess it depends on the site and game you download whether its compatible to the psxdroid emulator. Can we post actual tested and working roms?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] emil_aeger:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] emil_aeger:
Found a program that is supposed to convert psv files but it fails when i try to import the save file =(. Has anyone used memcardrex? I want to convert to mcr file btw. Could it work with just changing the name on the file to mcr and put it in the save folder?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] emil_aeger:
I get what you mean but the thing is I cant convert it =(

When I try to import it, it just says file could not be opened for some reason ahhh!!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] raphi809:
can somebody help me out with this please i'm a tech savvy guy but this one has got me stumped even after reading 15 pages worth :( I downloaded a rom in rar format. Inside it are three files with the extensions .ccd, .img, and .sub . If I drag the rar file to unecm.exe to get a bin file nothing happens. If i drag it to the ecm.exe file I get a new ecm file. Which I figure I would drag to the unecm.exe to get a bin file but instead it gives me a rar file :mad: wtf! I just wanna play this game!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ermacwins:

ok i cannot get this to work, i did everything it says to do but when i go to select the data.bin file in the app i just get a black screen for like 3 seconds and then it just takes me back to the rom selecting screen. what am i doing wrong? i did EVERYTHING the guide tells me to do. i am using a motorola droid 1 rooted w/ froyo cm6 rc3. some one PLEASE help me with this.

EDIT: ok nevermind, i got it work. apparently the problem is with Cyanogen mod, i went back to stock froyo and it suddenly started working fine, so to any one else having this problem just try installing a new ROM and it should work.

un-ECM for Droid

There is an app called un-ECM for Droid that will convert .ecm files to .bin files without having to use a computer. Also, you can use Rom Search Plus to easily grab PSX roms, then convert them to .bin with un-ECM.

I've had the same issue with the games I've tried. It giving a blank screen for a moment, "psx4droid is running" appears in the notification bar, and then leaves the blank screen. Has anyone confirmed that these converted .bin files, or bin files at all can be played on psx4droid?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] eppey1:
Hey, I've spent hours trying dozens of roms; .cue, .bin, .img. None of them work; I end up seeing a black screen with the status bar at the top and sometimes with a gray bar below it that says "psx4droid".

I have tried roms that are confirmed working (Ridge racer, FFVII) as well as some others (need for speed II, need for speed III).

NOTHING WORKS

I Have an original DROID running Cyanogenmod 6 RC3; I've heard there's trouble with CM6RC2 on the droid, but would that affect me as well? Should I wait for Cyanogenmod 6's full release or get rid of cyanogen?

I use PSX4droid with Evo. To get your games working.

1. Buy or use your old psx games.

2. Download Alcohol 120 and click Image Making Wizard

3. Select cue or iso both work with psx4droid

4. copy .iso or .bin to where ever on you sdcard load it up and enjoy
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] UTOne:
my psx emulator seemed to repeat the same problem time after time, i would download various roms (working) from various different websites but everytime i would load the rom a black screen will appear for about 3 seconds (as mentioned by a few users in this thread) so after atleast a intense days worth of trying different things i turned to my BIOS file and thats where the problem was.

Although my bios file had no difference from the one stated in the beginning i just thought i try a new bios file and i got so excited when it worked i almost hit the roof (luckily i have a tall roof).

So there you have it, if anyone seemed to be going through the same problem i had, try downloading a new bios file .
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] spyngamerman:

scph 1001.bin file issue

​

Hey everyone, I have been attempting to get this to work for a while now and have read through the entire forum. The issue that I am having is getting the bios file to set in the application. I have it located correctly and can view it in the emulator however when I click it the application just goes black and diverts back to the same screen. I read about someone having the same issue that fixed it by switching off of CM froyo. I am using a G2 and currently have no choices for switching roms, obviously I can wait for one if there are no other options but if anyone is having the same issue on the same or a similar device or if someone has come up with a fix any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I download .7Z files, i figure they need to be ecm files before i unecm them. So i drag the .7Z to the ecm app, this gives me a file with "name.7z.ecm".

I then drag this ecm file to the unecm app, and it shoots through the progress bar in about 10 seconds, i don't get any new files.

I'm starting to think the ecm app isn't actually doing anything but simply change the file name to .ecm. Could anybody tell me a program that will convert the .7Z files to .ecm please?

I dont understand the whole ECM procedure. I downloaded a ROM in .bin form, converted it into .bin.ecm format but the emulator didn't recognize it. Then I grabbed the original rom in .bin format and it picked it right up.

What is the purpose of the ECM conversion step?

so i got this working on my samsung fascinate(galaxys). the first and only game i tried was vigilante8. It runs like SSSHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIITTTT.

anyone want to help?

I just can't get this to work smooth on the htc desire rooted running miui rom, I've tried playing about with the settings but nothing changes.. the games are all running slowly, especially street fighter 3.. :confused::confused::confused:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tommytomatoe:
First, 7z files are archives that must unpacked. 7zip does the trick or you can use betterzip. Inside the 7z you will find a number of files. One is usually called"data.bin.ecm" which you put through the unecm. This will give you a new file titled data.bin. that's what you want. Just rename to nameofyourgame.bin.

Second, if your rom is in .bin format, ignore this thread. That is already correct format for psx4droid.

Third, a little problem I had was actually starting the roms. Screen would go black then go back to rom selection. A quick fix involves using a different BIOS. I used scph1002.bin instead of 1001. It worked fine. Just do a quick Google search. I found a link to about ten BIOS files. Hope that clears it up.

Ok so maybe 2 months ago I stopped playing ff7 on my epic, just took a break, but the game worked fine, got it from rom buddy for psx, I updated to an unofficial 2.2.1 for my epic 4g and I can't get rom buddy for psx, guess some apps can't be seen on the market with this fake froyo :-( anyway I decided to get some gran tursimo on my phone for the psx, (doperoms) did all the steps in tutorial to convert the file, and I'm guessing when you drag the data.bin.ecm file to unecm.exe it converts it and puts it back into the zip file from where it came from, so I drap it into my psx folder where all my ff7 games are and nothing, its like the psx can't read the files, nothing has changed after converting through that unecm.exe its still an ecm file. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing, I don't get it, it was working perfectly, even my bios file doesn't seem to work, usually openning up the bios bin you get the playstation/sony logo, I don't even get that and I've replaced it with 3 different bios bins, I've tried the same game on my friends stock epic with 2.1 and nothing happens either, am I missing something here?
