pulling my paid apk of sd

Not sure if i am allowed to ask this here...

I purchased N64oid on my nook running 2.2 off sd card but can not find in market on my 2.1 rooted (have tried all the resetting location tricks) ...

Trying to pull off sd card using adb pull system/app/n64oid.apk C:\n64oid.apk ,

is that the right command?

Any help is greatly welcomed.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Clienterror:
This is a pretty cool app. It seems most roms play ok on the nook minus Zelda, I loaded it on my atrix and fired up Zelda to see how it played and it played it smooth as silk, so I'm not sure why Zelda is so much harder to play than anything else.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] scubageek01:
Anyone knows if N64oid works on Eclair? Everytime I install the apk, I get "Application not installed"
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rohit275:
I know I'm late here, but it's most likely located in /data/app, not /system/app. In the adb shell, navigate to /data/app with:

cd /data/app

Then try:

ls

To list all the items in the /data/app folder...after that locate the file name for n64oid (it'll probably be com.something.something.n64oid.apk...something like that haha). Then try your adb pull command on that.

So I've noticed that majora's mask worked fine on an older version but now it's incredibly laggy...Mario 64 is flawless though. I'm definitely impressed by this thing.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ulquiorra01:
WOW!!

this stuff is amazing, loving it so far
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] motitas:
so far the only game I've gotten to work playably is super mario 64 on version 1.1.4... Ive tried 1.1.2-1.1.4 on majoras mask with no luck.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rohit275:
It runs slightly better when you adjust the max frame skips (like 6-8), but it still eventually crashed on me when I got to the clock town. I'm sure we'll see updates...this thing is only like 10 days old :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] moesasin:
My experiences. w/ Phiremod 5.1, 1.1ghz, N64oid v1.1.4

Super Mario 64:near perfect.

Zelda Ocarina: unplayable(too choppy)

markio kart: is almost as smooth as super mario.

Conkers Bad Fur Day: Crashes before opening animation

Banjo Kazooie/Tooie: unplayable(too choppy)

Diddy Kong Racing: Like Mario Kart, kinda choppy.

NOTES: 4 frame skips is ideal, games play slightly better when NOT stretched to screen
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Vindolanda:
I'm on a rooted eclair/honeycomb dual boot, and I cannot get any version of n64oid to work.

On both, it gets to the ROM selection and force closes no matter what ROM I have (doesn't even play, just FCs). Super Mario, Mario Kart, 007, etc. I tried ROM gripper to see if it was the download, and it still force closes.

Is there any work around?

Btw, I've also messed with the settings, i.e. Quick Load ROMs, to no avail.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Midnitte:
Had the same problem with Conker, perhaps the game used a special chip thats not emulated by n64oid? GBA games have the same problem with games like Yoshi's island 2 where the game used a special chip for the graphics that cant be emulated in the emulator. (We heard you like emulators so we put emulators in your...). Glad to hear super mario 64 and kart work perfectly, perhaps its time to overclock this thing.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
N64 emulation is still pretty raw unfortunately. Development has become slow/non-existent in the past 4 years or so. They got most of the popular games working ok but there are a lot of games that don't work well.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Seseo17:
I had the same problem. I unrooted and then rerooted my NC with Autonooter 3.0 and then n64oid worked.

So far Zelda Ocarina has worked for me. It runs a bit slowly on start but if I change the frame rate it starts running just fine (I change the frame rate every time I start the game, sometimes up, sometimes down...usually 4-6). i don't play with sound on so I don't know how it is. Also I've only gotten to the Deku tree so things may change inside.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Trickee360:
Running cm7 nightly 31 w/base kernell, n64oid doesn't even show up in market for me. I pulled the APk from my epic and installed it on the NC and whenever I open my test game (paper Mario), n64oid starts running in the background and that's it. What should I do? Are there known causes of these issues?

EDIT: nvm. Turns out paper Mario isn't supported. Loaded up Mario 64 and it runs p good. Still no idea why n64oid won't show up in market though :(
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mesome383:
Supposedly he pulled it off due to complaints.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] evilPERSOn2009:
He should have waited a bit before releasing it. Only games playable are Mario 64 (80-95%), Mario Kart (60-80%), and Star Fox (50-80%). I tried Golden Eye and it was a slide show. Running CM7 n31 1.1 ghz. :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
It was taken off the market because there were too many complaints about compatibility and performance. And then there's this

I hope N64 will return in a faster and better form soon :/
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Wow suckage... Stealing another developer's work. Won't lie though, I would much rather have a program that isn't perfect with updates in the future, than nothing at all... Mario Kart 64 on a Nook Color is definitely an impressive feat, and a neat demonstration for those that don't know about it's tablet powers.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] evilPERSOn2009:
That pretty much sums up why the updates weren't really updated. He was pretty much waiting for others to do the work for him.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wgarrido:
Purchased apps on my Captivate were in /app-private.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Midnitte:
Ouch, what a shame. Glad I never paid for it then.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ca1r0776:
Installed the emulator, plays great :)

My only qualm is the virtual keypad...on super mario 64, i have to stretch the "joystick" too far to run, and it often doesnt run fast enough or my finger looses the stick...

Is there a way to design your own virtual keypad? I know you could for Zodttd's GBA emulator on Iphone, but google searching for an hour as far as n64oid goes, and i cant find anything
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
I get the force quitting problem as well. Im running Honeycomb off a sd card and the roms are on the card too. Someone said thats not good?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] KiNG OMaR:
Market Enabler and then fake a US carrier... Not sure about other carries, but it works with T-Mo US
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Evaders99:
Search around for the Apk, then for ROM Gripper++ (that didn't seem to download). Went to some Emu sites for ROMS but not having any luck. N64oid just says it stopped unexpectedly trying to load the ROM. Sad :(
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Try coolrom .com for roms. Still wont actually play them but if it ever works you know where to find them
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
The solution! (i think)

Put the roms on the nooks internal storage and they all run!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
If that works for you, cool. But I can play em from my sd without any problems.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Evaders99:
I have the opposite problem. Putting the ROMs on the /emmc didn't solve the issue.

May try running CM7 on emmc at some point, but for now I'm sticking with my SDcard version
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Selim873:
Can I get some help? I keep getting "Application Not Installed" when trying to install it. I'm sure it works because it installed sucessfully on my brother's phone.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Are you installing from adb? It might be a bad apk.

Actually it wont run for me either now =(

It ran fine under the original Android version installed on my nook but now it crashes
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
it works fine for me, the app and my roms. Im running Nookie Comb
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] drdystopia:
Way too Fast

So I have this up and running on CM7 with the overclock to 1.1ghz

and everything runs crazy fast. Mario64, MarioKart, Starfox.

Everything is in overdrive and the characters sound like chipmunks.

Any ideas?

The controls are flawless and the graphics are great, everything is just super fast.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
What is your frame skip set too?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Can you give the link to the apk? I need my Mario fix
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] urbanengine1:
just to show how smooth the gameplay is, heres a video of me playing super mario 64 on my CM7 (1.1ghz) nook color:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46Mtknjz8qE

EDIT: i forgot to say im using a wiimote to play the game.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Ahh you got it working because you had CM7. I cant stand the CM7 mods so i just duel boot HC and Froyo right now but it crashes on HC =/

How do you set up the wii mote controller to work with it?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
heres my apk http://www.mediafire.com/?ypppp0jyb4zxmof
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
No luck =/ Still crashes on Honeycomb
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] urbanengine1:
CM7 enables bluetooth, which is what the wiimote uses to connect to a wii, so if you download an app called "Wii Controller IME" you can tether the wiimote to the nook.

you then apply some fake "hardware" keys to each of the wiimotes buttons in Wii Controller IME, and select the appropriate keys in the keymapping section of N64oid or Gameboid.

Then you get all the features of a controller :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Hmm that might be worth it lol Its pretty hard to do a ground pound with software buttons
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Tekkenz:
Im having the same problem with honeycomb. When I load the roms it says that the application has stopped unexpectedly and I have tried to fix it but is it only fixable by installing an older version of android?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Using an older version is the only way i got it to work
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ichigo4lyf:
Yep i got the simple good ol stock rom or autonooter and my friend found a way to get on his i just got his microsd card used astro file maneger installed it then switched bac to mines then i downloaded mario64 rom from an app and wala it works and runs without lag andi haven't even overclock my nook but off cours not all games work just sme the most important one th ones i tried out like Zelda O of T and mario kart so just look hard for it and then try it. Goodluck
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] drdystopia:
Even with frame skip set to zero it runs all of the games at chipmunk speed.

What version of N64oid are you guys running?

Could this have anything to do with the governor on my overclock? I am using on-demand and have had this issue with every kernel i have tried of the last month or two.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
N64 emulation is both rather messy still and more demading than PS1 emu so I'm not sure that it's going to get much better on the NC. I don't think N64 emu has improved much in the past 5 years honestly... I don't think N64 attracts as many emulator devs as other consoles. It's better off than some though like 3DO and Saturn.

Some N64 games need much more intensive LLE to function and that is almost certainly beyond these Arm CPUs. I think you can still stress out PCs doing that stuff...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] drdystopia:
It just seems really odd that everyone else is have trouble with games running way too slow and my Nook is running them all way too fast.

It is hard for me to believe that no one else is having this issue since I am runnning CM7 stable which seems to be the prefered Rom these days.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] kp4c:
Anyone else having extreme lag using the classic controller? Works fine in SNESoid...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rohit275:
Has anyone gotten the 2.0 update to work at all? It basically freezes my NC and I have to hard reboot it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
Mine just closes whatever I tell it to do (opening settings, loading roms, ...) with the occasional "crash to launcher"
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Alex_32571:
Same here... I was really looking forward to playing Conker, too.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
There is an update? got a link?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
So has anyone had any luck with this? I read that 2.0.4 is out, but it still insta-freezes my Nook when loading a game
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Im running the CM7 nightly and it works.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Larry94:
2.0?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Dont know where to find 2.0 so i just use 1.4. If you link me 2.0 ill test it
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=n64oid

Very first result
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] honeycombgoodyeahyeahyeah:
Ahh yeah that doesnt work. Nothing wrong with using an older version though

After installing the version you linked i cant even get the other working again -_-

And it doesnt matter now because i deleted my 59 star Super Mario save by accident. Best of luck to you.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Unfortunately 2.0 brought over some big changes that supposely made some games a lot more playable. Which is why it's really to bad that it doesn't work =\.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Larry94:
CONFIRMED WORKING! VERSION 2.1 IS WORKING ON THE NOOK COLOR! Super Mario 64 runs full speed!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
No luck here:(
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rhester72:
Nor here. Still get kick-out on first load and lockup on second with 2.1.

Rodney
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Larry94:
That is strange... I know I have 2.1 because I have fog emulation. Maybe its because I am running a old CM7 from way back in April. Maybe you guys should go to settings>application>n64oid>clear data
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rhester72:
Clearing data won't help - it is an incompatibility with newer .32 nightlies.

Rodney
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
Email the author. He'd be the most likely to know the problem. ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
I have an old version working on mine. Although I don't know what version numbers are. I'm running cm7 nightly 150.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rhester72:
Anything < 2.0 works fine with the .32 kernel...but hardly any games.

Rodney
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jacobas92:
I decide to use phiremod 6.3. I couldn't live without Zelda
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
Yeah pretty anything other than Mario 64 is either a little laggy or completely unplayable
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
2.2 is out.

*Changes*:

v2.2

- Option to enable Rumble pak (emulated by vibrating your phone!)

- Fixed texture issues on certain devices.

No NC love again, it seems. Has anyone tried the update?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
Its a no go with 2.2. Locked up my nook and had hard reboot.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
I think there is something amuck between N64oid v2+ and kernel .32. If you run CM 7.0.3 the emulator works. Once you move to CM 7.1 RC or the nightlies it stops working.

I have contacted N64oid's author about it but since he doesn't have our device it'll be hard to narrow down the problem.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Larry94:
I beg to differ, I am running CM 7.0.0 RC4 encore and OOT, banjo kazooie, and diddy kong racing run near flawlessly. I'm not even overclocked either!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
What version are you using. I have to use an older version as 2.0 and above don't work with anything with the .32 kernel.

I just tried 2.3.3 Still no luck. Locked up the nook when trying to start up a rom.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
Bah, I guessl we'll have to keep on waiting :( I want to play zeldaaaaaaaaaaaaa with my ps3 controller damn it :P
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dmags2:
Worked fine for me on Encore 7.0.3 with N64oid ver 1.0.2
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
The problem is with the .32 kernel and N64oid 2.0 and above.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Yeah... *Gloats* N64oid + .29 kernel is pretty bad ass ;p.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
Yeah, I'm thinking of getting an SD card just to run n64oid off of.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Arbelzapf:
2.3 - still no luck:(:(

sigh
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
Split the cost and buy the author a Nook Color so he can easily debug for our funky kernel. ;) I sent him a bunch of crash logs and he said he would look into it but I'm guessing that without hardware to test on it's a ***** to figure out.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
Interesting idea, if the devoloper of the app is willing to do it and he can setup a donation thingy I'm willing to chip in a little bit of cash :) Just if he can commit to try to find a workaround for the NC
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] drewtwo99:
Just wanted to let you all know that I am running phiremod 6.3 and n64oid v2.4. It runs games really well, no major problems at all to report. I have it OC'd to 1300MHz.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
That is because phiremod is based off an old version of CM7.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
Yeah, you can run N64oid 2+ on CM 7.0.3 as well.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rbigbrandenburg:
roms

where is a good place to download roms
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
We cant share that here.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Good place to get n64 roms
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Sir a teema:
Since updating to CyanogenMod 7.1, N64oid will not boot up games. Is anyone else that updated also having this problem?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
It doesnt boot games since the update to the kernel a couple months ago. It will only run on n64oid versions that are lower than 2.0, which sucks because you can only play mario 64 without lag
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 22jjones:
What a drag. I was looking forward to trying this out.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
The Nook Color isn't really fast enough to deal with N64 emulation anyway. Most games run way too slowly. And there's also the issue of N64 emulation being really rough in general due to a lack of real progress in years.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
...What are you talking about? Last I heard there were only a couple of games with major issues left in N64 Emulation on the pc. Most games I've tried on the Nook color ran very well, not 100% all the time, but completely playable (then again, why anyone would want to play through Ocarina of Time on the Nook Color is beyond me.)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
^^^^

This, although I for one would love to play some OOT on my Nook.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
Me too I would play the Ocarina out of OOT, specially with my ps3 controller paired through bluetooth. Portable Zelda FTW!! (I don't have NDS)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Well for me that's where the problem comes in, there are very few places I go, where I can put my nook color up on a stand and pull out a controller.

That said, I have nothing against the software, as I could easily see myself getting a better tablet in the future with HDMI out and then sitting down at a family get together with a bunch of controllers.

I'll have to charge my nook back up sometime and run some games. I remember playing Starfox 64 at 100% when I was playing with it a few months ago.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
Well I'm guessing you haven't tried very many games. There are many with problems even on PC, necessitating using multiple emulators and plugins. And of course there are 5 or so that used custom RSP firmware and basically don't work at all (although some of them can be made to partially work with some workarounds and hacks).

Some that I can get working on PC won't on N64oid because I can't try different video plugins.

On my old modded Xbox I have Surreal64 (it is still being maintained). On that they have multiple emulators and plugins ported. You can choose from UltraHLE, Project64, and 1964. There are 4 video plugin choices, 2 audio plugins and other options. That is better than N64oid but PC is best of course. Xbox is also somewhat faster so runs more games better although its 64MB RAM is inadequate for a few.

N64 emulation needs more low level emulation to get past all of these dirty hacks that are so problematic. But that is more demanding than HLE so wouldn't be good for weak devices like phones and tablets. It is in the works in MESS for example but they go for pure accuracy instead of any reasonable playability. A middle ground would be nice but nobody is working on it AFAIK.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Lol sorry. I really didn't care for the N64, so I didn't realize just how many games weren't working.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
The games I want to play run great on Android devices compatible with N64oid (as seen on youtube), plus with project64 pc emulator too. So at least for me getting it working with the NC kernel would be awesome so I can play them. Mario 64 ran great on the NC, so other games that work with the emulator should run about the same. It's just that since the updated kernel was implemented the app stopped working. I'm pretty sure ppl in this thread or other relate threads were able to run Zelda OOT (which is the main one I want to play) smoothly using Phiremod 6.3 and/or CM7 7.0.3 (from what I recall reading in threads for n64oid). I could play it in my laptop, but I want it on the NC since its more portable, my laptop is 17" plus I don't want to get robbed and lose a $1k laptop (with all my docs). But I'm digressing, so yeah it would be great for me if the kernel were compatible with the app....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
Jgaf I hear ya but I'm not convinced the author is even trying to fix it for Nook. He doesn't have a Nook and so I doubt he cares much to try to blindly figure out what the deal is.

Heh ya I am not sure why I care either lol. Most of the games are **** but there are a dozen or so that I like. Some of them don't work on any emulator. Most people are just after the usual first party games and those mostly do work fine. Of those I only care about Mario64 and Waverace.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] brsingr:
Should I just root my nook to CM7 7.0.3? I read on page 13 that was the most stable with the versions 2.0+ for n64oid.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
It depends what is more important to you, playing n64 games or good battery life plus all the other features of CM7.1

Sent from space
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] brsingr:
Do you think an earlier version would work with the CM7 latest nightly?

Worst case is I just go back and forth between the different versions depending on what I want to do.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] succulent:
Well, the N64oid (latest 2.xx) work on NT. Seem weird that it still doesn't work on NC. Earlier version of N64oid work on NC, pre 2.xx.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] swaaye:
N64oid 1.1.4 should work with the current kernel.

CM 7.0.3 and prior have much different kernels than later CM7 NC builds. There is something in this newer kernel that is incompatible with N64oid v2+.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] koopakid08:
Anything before V2.0 should work.

I am coming from a samsung captivate with FireFly Rom... it is pretty nice actually and works well.

I pulled out my Inspire out of the box and it seems very laggy and slow, no where close to captivate speed and smoothness (did I really say that?)

I tried the Inspire and the browser and other apps and they start and load then freeze and the menu/back button do nothing... then it works, then it freezes again and keeps doing this.

From what I read this phone needs no rom and is supposed to be plenty fast... mine is not.

Your thoughts?

thanks Kevin
