THANK YOU! totally forgot about astro since i've acquired my vibrant. it has a pretty good process killer. also just noticed that the vibrant, and i don't know if it's the touchwiz overlay specifically, uses a hell of a lot of memory. i've read this over in other threads, but never confirmed this myself.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zimphishmonger:
You shouldnt be killing tasks manually. you want to optimize the way apps get killed by tweaking lowmemkiller using something like AutoKiller on a low setting (because our Vibrants have a fair bit of ram). In this case psx4droid would certainly be killed first due to the way its idling in the background

Vagrant story works fine for me. I can watch the cinematic in xenogears with no issues. Ill try game play later. Maybe there are bad roms going around.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] maydaysos:
Iwas playing tenchu 2 and had a suggestion for the developer. The on screen buttons are great. Gameplay would be much improved if we had the option to make the shoulder buttons togglable or "sticky". Games like tench and many other action games use shoulder buttons as target lock and look modifiers. With no hardware buttons it can be extreamley difficult to manuver. A light border around the toggled button will be enough to indicate the button is pressed down or "toggled". The button can the be untoggled with the next button press. We will the have the ability make button combonations with ease. R1,r2,l1,l2 buttons are all that need to be togglable.

Greatness

I've been running this for a few months now and with a couple fixes have all my Roms working on it. I've been playing Chrono Cross and Metal Gear Solid for a week so I know they work. Some Rom files don't load good on this app so you need to change them. Most .bin files work but some need the .iso format as it's a less modified version of the original. Also there are different BIOS which will make your Roms run better. It's all about trial and error. Alot of it can be solved with pc related fixes for PSX emulators. :D

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Phrack:
Add Knockout Kings 2000 to the working list.

Tried Pa Rappa the Rapper but it runs too fast.

Not working: Mortal Kombat Trilogy. Odd since Mortal Kombat Mythologies is a newer game and that works.

I have some original PS1 games (and still have my PS1 console ), including Metal Gear Solid which I ripped to IMG files using CloneCD. ISO files may work for some older games but there is subcode data from the original discs that can't be saved in ISO format but IMG format. For emulators such as PSX4Droid it doesn't matter (I have tried 3 formats, ISO, BIN/CUE, IMG/SUB) and 3 different BIOS files. Metal Gear Solid still doesn't work on PSX4DROID regardless of settings but the same files work great in EpsxE for Windows.

Maybe you could go into greater detail as to what BIOS, settings and where you got the Metal Gear Solid ISOs from (it's 2 discs people) so we could all play on our Vibrant.

Or is this just another Froyo sighting for Vibrants?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Kaddis:
I second this suggestion.

For instance, FFVIII is claimed to be working yet I cannot for the life of me get any .bin/iso/eboot of it to get me through a cutscene in game, I had to start the game on the PC and get past the intro and then ported the save to my phone to play it. Then it just freezes at the cutscene where they introduce Zell. It freezes everytime, even on my own burns.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Phrack:
My point exactly. You can rest assured that neither FFVIII or MGS is working on PSX4Droid. Just more BS claims. This happens in many forums I frequent. A small minority claim to get something working that has been tried by many experienced users yet when pressed for details in steps taken they are always vague.

There aren't many options in PSX4Droid that you can select that would affect a game working one way or another (I count 5). The BIOS may affect it but I have 3 and these same 3 work the same on Epsxe for Windows running MGS.

Now here's where I call BS. Anyone who knows ANYTHING about image files know that BIN and IMG files are almost exact copies original disks with information not contained in ISO files. This is why most of the downloadable games for PS1 were in BIN/CUE/CCD/SUB files so you could burn the game onto a CDR and play it on a real PS1. If you download an ISO and burn that to a CDR the PS1 won't play it because it's missing data.

So no, the BIN file is less modified than ISO and are better for gaming in general.

Hello

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

I have a HP IPAQ 2755 HX running Windows Mobile 2003 SE without problem. I have been searching through the internet trying to see if its a good idea to upgrade to WM5 or WM6. I am not sure if its even possible as I have seen some posts that WM5 runs with degradation. Can I upgrade to WM6?

Can I even find a download for Wm5/WM6? I am still gathering information and details and not clear the process to upgrade the ROM.

Any information / advice would be greatly appreciated.

If I do upgrade the ROM and there is problems how easy is it to fallback the original ROM? Could it damage the unit?

Tks/Dave

[Vibrant General] eric0668:
yet they cannot be found. I only see my Google contacts listed

Trust me, I don't want them there. I wanna start over, copy to the sim, import to the phone, (I did some clean up of the contacts0

But the app contacts 2 sim says there are 300 phone contacs, besides

the speed dial feature works and the individual ringtone feature works, both of which need contacts to be on the phone

So, they MUST be somewhere. Can someone tell me where they may be

I'd be most grateful

Thanks

Did you try going to Display Options at the Contact screen and playing around with the options there? Like, turn off Google contacts and leave the others on and see what happens.
[Vibrant General] eric0668:
Thanks Inat.

I have opened them all up

PHone,

Facebook,

Google Contacts

NOTHING

I am gonna believe maybe they are NOT There

Take off the Buddy speed dial Widget

Make all group ringtones I have set up to default

I took off the SIM card app, took it off, then will reinstall it again. Copy to Sim (good free app)

Anyone who has more ideas and can keep helping is most appreciated

is that app pretty good for that

Lastly, I heard from a guy at Nexus support, he mostly tries to find free apps for everything. YOu should never pay because 99% of the time there will be some for free. Do you agree. I am not saying he is against donations, for those who count on those, but I think he is clearly against clicking BUY for the first app he sees :)

Robo voice still present.

I tried other Android builds including dan1j3l's Froyo V1 and Froyo-Sense PR1 builds, with no luck on the robo voice front.

(On another note, I really like the notion of a Froyo-Sense build, but PR1 was really slow on my phone. Maybe a result of the class 2 16GB micro SD card I'm using).

On WinMo, I'm running CHT 1.8.5 w/ Dinik's Anastacia theme. It took me a while to get the look I wanted and convert most of the program icons. I guess I need to start looking at some roms, but I'm not looking forward to getting the thing to look how I like again.

Hey I wish I could agree but I have been trying every "rom" install of android with the 2.10.50.26 radio which was part of a tmo update rom. I'm having the robotic high pitch sound issue.

also unless you have done a massive amount of testing can you really say you have a 100% solution? I hear people are finding that it's not just the radio but the rom so there are other considerations beside just radio version.

I also am having other sound issues where playback in the music player seems to playback at a slightly higher pitch than normal-- also the Sirius Player does this... wierd anyone else notice this?
