Where to check of the version of psx4droid I have?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:
If you don't have titanium backup or not familiar with it, the best way would be to go to, in your phone { Settings -> Applications -> Manage Application -> psx4droid } And after clicking it, under the name it should say version x.x
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] GHOST99K:
Thanx.i have 1.0.8
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:
Ya your using PSX4Droid Version 2-1.0.8

The ones you want to use until Version 2 is finished is Version 1

Download both since they differ depending on the game. My previous posts have my preferred versions to use depending on the game.

Then transfer the .apk file to your sd card (either by taking the sd card out or plugging your cable into the computer) I recommend naming a file on the sd card "Roms" or "PSX" just to keep things clean, and easy to remember for later.

After that, download "apk installer" off the android market.

Open apk installer, navigate to where the .apk file is on your sd card. click it, and install with "package installer" option.

You may have to change a setting in order to install, It should have a settings button if it wont let you install, and that will bring you where to make the change.

Only pick one at a time to test and see which one works. When you install 1.1, it will overwrite 1.7 and vise versa. But it will NOT overwrite V2-1.0.8. So you will have v1.1 or v1.7 and v2 at the same time. but never v1.1, v1.7, and v2.

It's actually one of the easier things to do, I know it sounds kinda complicated but that's just because I wrote in detail.

After that FFVII should work great either on v1.1 or v1.7.

Lemme know how it goes! If you get stuck I'll walk you through it, I get a notification to my email every time someone posts in this thread, so it should be instant if I'm awake.:)

P.S. I feel comfortable giving out the download links since I consider those versions to be abandonware. I believe the developer Zod also considers it abandonware since he recommends keeping backups as well. I would never give out v2 though, for that you need to spend the cash. Besides it's worth it, he needs the financial support to keep supporting the application. I have faith V2 will be superior eventually. He's putting a lot of work into it. Like I said in a previous post, he's my favorite business man!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] GHOST99K:
Thank you so much.i have tried both of the versions that u posted and it didn't load ff7 at all.i will try downloading another ISO game and see if it works and let you know.thanx for your effort of trying to help out.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:
Np, It does sound like it's the game itself. Hope everything works out!

PSX4Droid v2-1.0.9

PSX4Droid v2-1.0.9

I am currently conducting my review of game emulation using the new settings.

So far what I've witnessed is the emulator running games slow, speed ups and slow downs, gurgling in music, sound effects delayed sometimes, and FMV's running slow with gurgled audio.

Though aside from all that, games "seem" to be the same as the past few versions, FFVIII's world map still works and the garden moves, from what I can tell Legend of Legaia no longer has crashes when performing hyper arts and learning your first arts move at the beginning of the game, more music plays in Legend of Dragoon, and FFIX doesn't crash at the 4 specific crash FMV's.

Features

-Save States Work

-Freezes or force closes when entering portrait mode from landscape or vise versa[FIXED]​

I will shortly create the list of games

​
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bhed:
Has anyone had any luck with Diablo? It's really the only ps1 game I'm interested in. I tried version 1.7 and the graphics started going crazy in the first level (colored lines all over the place - there are a few similar screenshots people have posted out there). Then I tried V2 1.0.1 and it worked great for a while, but started having the same problem in the dark passage (other people have reported the same problem in the same place), and finally tried v2 1.0.8m, which was very laggy and quit back to the rom select screen constantly.

I've read other people have gotten Diablo to work, so I'm wondering what's the best version/settings.

Thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:
Try PSX4Droid v2-1.0.9, there's a diablo fix in the settings. Haven't tried it though
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bhed:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I really want to support the developer, but I'm a bit wary of shelling out $6 just for a test, and it usually takes some time for the problems to develop (more than 15 min). If I can get it working though, I'll gladly pay him double! At this point, I think I'll wait and see if someone else gets it working before buying (someone who is looking to play other games besides just Diablo, so it's not like they're taking all the risk!).

Looking at some of the above posts, I installed 1.7 apk using the app manager. Never needed the "app ainstaller" app before. Do you think that would make a difference?

I'm running 2.2.1 on an Archos 70 tablet (I know this is a Nexus 1 thread, but it's also the best thread on PSX4Droid I've found).

Thanks again, and by any chance does you username refer to the FC Barcelona player?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:
I'm not sure it would make a difference if you used app manager or not.

I agree that this is the best thread on PSX4DROID :), I'm actually making my reviews using a Droid X rooted and overclocked to 1.3ghz. Pretty much if it doesn't work on mine, it doesn't work on other Droids (But could work great on other phones).

I haven't tried Diablo yet, I've heard it still doesn't work well on some phones using PSX4Droid v2-1.0.9 even with the settings fix.

The developer just released v2 about 2 weeks ago, he's been updating it like mad, I'm sure you won't have to wait very long before Diablo works flawlessly on all phones and tablets(maybe a month). I'll keep my eye out for when it works and let you know.

Nah the username is just a name I commonly use in games and ffviii is Final Fantasy 8. Although I do enjoy soccer when I have the time.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bhed:
Update - tried Diablo (tried 2 different ROMS - 1 .img & 1 .bin) on v2 1.0.9, but while I haven't gotten the graphics problem (crazy blue lines), it's because I haven't been able to get that far. It freezes often when accessing the memory card when trying to read the card, save, or load (at what stage it freezes is pretty random).

I checked the fix Diablo setting, but it doesn't seem to help.

Dissapointed!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xaviorffviii:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavenger:
Hey Guys....thanks in advance for any replies...

Can anyone give me some tips on how to take decent pictures with the Evo? In most cases I am taking pictures in dimly lit restaurants or bars (no comments please, heh heh) and most of the time the pictures are completely washed out due to the flash coming on and lighting up the subjects faces like a Christmas tree.

Does anyone know if there are settings, other software or any other tips that can be used to help me take better pictures??

Thank you!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianBusby2038:
From the camera app,there is a tab on the left side in landscape mode. If you slide it open, choose settings, then brightness a slider will open. I've found that in dim to dark conditions, best results with flash on are with the brightness set to around -2.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluehaze:
Theres an old photographer's trick, not the most elegant of solutions but putting a piece of scotch tape over the flash will help diffuse the light and also get rid of the harsh shadows from the flash.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sablesurfer:
Honestly this has started to cross my mind too. The two flashes 'sounds' like a good idea...but they are WAY TO HOT for a close up (within 6 feet or so). Now they did actually work pretty well at dusk for a test shot about 12 feet away. (So that should tell you they are too bright for close work)

I am thinking of maybe taping just one and testing.

But you could use scotch tape as posted, because the frosted look of the tape would help diffuse the light. (Remembering it will diminish ability to flash far away.)

Have to start treating this more like cameras now...they are going to require more than point and forget.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weidnerj:
Idea

I asked the same question a few weeks ago - why doens't the EVO do light metering.

One though would be to use a LED application to turn on the LED light - maybe on low, and don't use the flash on the camera application? I know a pain to do (and a loss of coolness points) but might work?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freelancerx:
if you really want to be photo savvy go to a photo store and get a sheet of diffusion gel, and just place a small cut out in between the flashes and the battery cover. also always shoot as low as you can go with the ISO, the problem with the EVO camera is that when in low light situations it switches to a high ISO, but it doesn't factor in the fact that the flash is going to go off, so when the flash goes off, the high ISO coupled with the strong flash means super overexposed picture. so either leave the camera at iso 100 or 200 and try shooting that way or try the diffusion i stated earlier.

the camera is just very badly coded. for instance what the camera should be doing is lighting the flash to focus, read exposure and compensate, then take the picture with the proper level flash. as it is now all it does is try to focus completely in the dark, then just flash the flash at full power while its taking the picture. it really is a terribly coded camera.

its like the people over at HTC basically just added the lcd's just to add them, i mean we already know that the LCD can be used at various levels of intensity...its a damn shame...

[Desire General] Sector51:
Hi guy's ,

I have a little problem. I don't really know how to explain it but i will try! Hope somebody can help. Just rooted my phone a few day's ago and tested a few custom roms (2.2). I find 2 same problems witch all roms (all without sense).

- Icons disappear , from home screen

- Double app icons in all app list

I'll try to explain:

Icons on the home screen don't really disappear , but the icon changes. For example, i have the XDA app , and suddenly the XDA logo disappears and the normal android logo appears , icon is still working. After a reboot , some icon's come back , and some dont.

The second problem is that icons come back double in the app menu. So when you list all apps , XDA is showed twice.

Anybody have the same issue?? Please help.

Currently running SetRom 4.5 , same problem with open desire.

[Droid X General] GoldenCyn:
I read on a blog that if you add your google voice number to a calling circle plan (like my faces or the thing they have for Verizon), that all your outgoing calls will be free if you set GV to make the calls from your phone during the initial GV setup.

My question is that when i dial out, i notice a popup that google voice says its calling they GV but the number that pops up isn't my GV number. Am i doing something wrong?
[Droid X General] miller922:
As far as I'm aware, you can't do it through the official app because it changes the outgoing numbers.

I do it using the calling card method(call my google voice number, then choose option 2, then dial the outgoing number), and I've got my sister's phone set to do it with an app I found in the market that automates it. I don't recall the app, but I can find out if you want.
[Droid X General] jsanta11:
Well you can add the connection number to the list and it will be free when you call out but that number changes randomly, i had mines setup in the friends and family and about three months of usage they changed the number so i went ahead and changed it again on the friends and family. They say that the number is changed but not daily more like every couple of months like it has happened to me, in conclusion you will be using 2 slots of the friends and family one for your GV number so its free when they call you to your GV number and one for the connection number so its free when you call out thru GV.
[Droid X General] GoldenCyn:
That sucks. Friends and family takes 24 hours for a new number in the list to take effect. And that means i have to keep an eye on the dial out number all the time to see if its changed or not.
[HD2 General] Life Engineer:
Hello guys!

In a few days i will buy my first WM phone, which is the HTC HD2, and I will sell my Nokia N96!

BUT i have about 3000 or more text messages that i like to keep; i was storing them on my microSD card; my question is:

-If I put the card into the HD2, does it identify the messages?! (i mean can i see them and use them as if they were sent/received by the HD2?!) (did anyone try this before?!)

-If not; is there is anyway to do that?! I don't want to loose these msgs in anyway!:o

-Does the HD2 have the same option as nokia in creating folders and menaging the text msgs in these folders?!

-One more thing! Does the HD2 have the possibility to move/copy messages from SIM card to the memory card installed on the phone?! And/or to the phone memory?!

Thanks guys you're awesome!:)

Im not sure about your texts but I took the sd card straight from my N95 to my HD2 and there were no problems.....

Im sure there'll be a way to sync those texts to pc and then back to the HD2, they may even be there straight away, Im not 100% on this though.....

Theres bound to be "an app for that" out there somewhere though....

Have you had a long hard google session??
[HD2 General] Life Engineer:
10x man! Not a long session! I had a short one and i mainly found that the first result on google is a thread in here (xda); (it's the one that our colleague mentioned to me in the 1st reply);

it's a bit complicated method and will take maybe days to transfer about 4000 msgs!

I need a fast way to do that!

Please guys somebody help; i guess i shouldn't be the first one to face that! Maybe everyone of you had a nokia before switching to htc!!!
[HD2 General] bramgg:
HD2 saves texts to the internal storage AFAIK. Saving 4000+ messages to it will leave you with little internal storage for other thing. My advise is to search and backup your most beloved text messages and backup online or something and just start over with a fresh HD2.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
It shouldn't take up more than 5Mbs, I believe your average SMS is only 1kb, it's only a rough guess but I'd say it'd only use up 5-8Mbs or so, depending on your text length of course.

[XPERIA X10 General] Inferis:
Hello!

I had my X10 since 31 march (releasedate in Sweden)

But I Wonder:

1 If I want to save an attachment from mms, is there a way to choose where I want to save it? (Everytime I'm about to save, not just choose a standard folder) And I want to change filename to.

2 How to send files through bluetooth?

3 How to remove images from apps/games from Mediascape?

4 If X10 is rooted now, is there a way to remove Moxier?

5 Facerecognition, it works well to bind pictures to a contact. But sometimes suddenly all names are gone and I have to bind the pictures again. Is it just for me this happens?

6 Last software update seems to increase my batterylife dramatically? Is it so for everyone?

7 Since X10 should be a rather quick phone, why does it take so long time for browsing pictures?

8 When apps are installed, are they stored on local memory or on SDcard? Is there a way to choose?

More to come..
