[Q] For those of you who play emulators.

am I going crazy, or are all the rom apps from the market missing? Like Rom buddy, or rom gripper. Im assuming the violated something? I even paid for Rome buddy and I can't even use it anymore.

Most likely. Its basically like torrents. Some sites are being attacked even tho they don't offer the files, yet they offer the means.

Rom Buddy still shows up in my market...

There are plenty of these sites on the internet, although I will not suggest them Google helps =] I assume you know what to do once you have the files.

yeah but i mean they have been up there for so long idk why they are taken down now. i dont want to get them off a site on the internet, thats the beauty of the application. that rom buddy on the market now is like the remake of the old one, and i dont want to pay for it. AGAIN.

Sometimes it takes a while before things catch on...than the right people take notice and bam. Trouble in paradise.
Google is your friend...but the app does make things a hell of a lot easier. Worth the price imho.

rom buddy lol... ive had all the roms on my computer for the past 15 years...
i just drag and dropped them to my sd card...
use torrents

I noticed Emulator Roms Plus disappeared, which was upsetting... I kept the apk though so I can still use it.

It's because of the xperia play's release.

TalkAndroid explained that that only explains why PSX4Droid is missing. The emulators done by yongzh are still there.

Google really ought to have a refund policy for apps 'they' pull!

try droid emu rom get.

i know google pulled psx4droid but there is still fpse. about the roms, i would just go to a website like emuparadise or doperoms.com

I really hope they don't pull all the emulators too!! If they did that wouldn't be sony's fault..

It would be annoying if they pulled the nintendo emulators but not that big of a deal because they r very very stable already

Yeah this sux I hate using my computer for anything I can usually do on my evo but the websites still work just drag and drop. Its more work but at least we can still get roms.

TSF Shell not showing up in android market, why?

OK I don't know what gives, but I couldn't find it on my phone (GB) either either. But here is the work around.
I found it in Android Market on my computer and purchased it there. It made me choose which phone I wanted it installed on, so maybe it makes you pay for each device you have and that is causing us not to find it. As soon as I went to market on my phone, it was installed before I had a chance to hit the search button.
Edit... Ok ... so I have it. Is there a tutorial? I am confused.
I am starting to get it slowly though. Maybe when I get back home and figure things out I will start a post... I am out of battery for now.

well i have v1.0 ... >.>
but they updated so its time to break out ma tools XD

I purchased this app as well, its good but its missing some features the video on youtube showed. I was running the ICS leaked roms and none of them would work/compatible according to the market. I tried the market website and still didnt work, i had to revert to GB from Caulkin to get it after all. My initial impressions are mixed due to it still being a premature relase and not having all the features. So far one update was relased already so it seems like a good thing.

I purchased it and installed it yesterday on CM9. Ended up having to wipe data, and upon going back to the Market to install it, I can't find it anywhere. Dubious indeed.

So I attempted editing the build.prop as many have done to fix issues with the Chrome Beta browser, and still no luck getting this to show up. I liked the launcher while I was using it yesterday, but I'm enjoying CM9 more, so hopefully someone (likely won't be me) can figure out a way to get this to show up.

Its incompatible because its 17.00 fux that stuff ..... 4 maybe 5 bucks for a launcher OK but 17 ...come on I will call ice t at law & order svu , they trying to rape people
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk

yep, 17 bucks is wrong for a launcher....

You know, I don't care about the $17 bucks that much...... IF its something I like and want. I wish they would put out a free version that is only good for a few days, something like 3-7 days, so that we could try it out before dropping $17.

I have it but don't really like it getting rid of it

WoW! Multi-tasking browser? Link!

WoW!!!
How good does this look? Although I have to say will probably have more use with your tablet...
Only prob is it is not a free app, and probably rightly so as I have never seen an android browser do this before!
If anyone gets it, post review here.
Enjoy

Flash is not working on GB. Force Close. Well, anyway a good one, would buy it again.

Flash doesn't work on android versions below 3.0, but works fine in HC or ICS.
I have this on my Transformer, its very good, it will run on top of almost any app, so you can for example read from a web page whilst typing notes in another app.
You can also have lots of windows open simultaneously.
the windows are scale able and collapse able, and the browser is fast and capable.
not a lot of use on the SGS2 but if you have a tablet its definitely worth a look, and now, before the price goes up.

Ya I love that game. All you have to do is get off ICS. I love that game and GTAIII.But for some reason a LOT of games don't work on ICS.Thats the main reason I went back to GB. I have a lot of kids and they always wanna play them. Right now I'm on MIJJA 3.0 and it rocks. Since he updated the last el29 version it has all ICS animations, boot animation, CWM, plays all the gaming apps and no worries about bricking. Plus, all modems work with all ROMS and kernels. I'm on FD16 modem now. I'm currently trying to get some help making an AOSP lock screen mod for it. Ive already posted a crt mod for it. I really don't see b what the big deal is with ICS. Its really not all that better. We'll see what happens after source comes out. Oh and I got Sonic 2 running on my phone right.now.. He he he

chain fire?
is it safe?

I presume you're talking about triangle away by chain fire. I would say if you are on a ICS kernel and ROM that there is a chance since it messes with the boot loader but on ICS, give it a shot. I used it on FD02 and had no problems. Removed the triangle PERMANENTLY(i really couldn't tell you how) and reset my binary count to 0. i gotta warn you though do. NOT use it on .GB YOU WILL BRICK IF ON GB.

if i use chainfire it will brick it?
im on gb right now
o no i meant chainfire3d lol
i got a jig off amazon after i got the eptouch

Ooh my bad the above post i was posting to your other thread about sonic 2. Lol i have no idea about chain fire 3d.
Jigs don't work after eg30 tho. You would have to flash the eg30 boot loader. Calculin posted one somewhere. I can post it if you can't find it with xda/google search bar above.

Well, it doesn't just *work*, you have to change some of the per app settings\individual app settings... something along those lines, I'm pretty sure for street fighter it was qualcomm. But for alot of games you have to set it to nvidia.
You can set it to use one of the plugins for everything in general, but i'd advise using the per app settings instead.
There's lots of other settings you can change but it's just something you can tinker with to get performance and graphics how you like them. It's a very useful app.
Along with mobile Odin, chainfire has created 2 of the most useful android apps around

Make a new folder under Android ... Should look like this .. Android/obb/the game data.. Should work. As it works for me

I've been hearing that complaint from people with Tegra 2 devices as well, seems like it's pretty hard to get working on non-Tegra 3 devices right now. There will be a version for other phones released at some point though.

Is your phone rooted? Every review of the Tiger Woods game I've read so far says that it may not work on rooted devices.

I think that's your problem. I know there are many games that don't work on AOSP because the drivers aren't fully functional or optimized.

Just a quick observation here.
This is a forum made up of people that enjoy their epic 4g touch. When you start a thread called "This phone really does suck!!!!" You might not get a lot of help. Now put your phone down and go outside and play!

The huge problem with nothing ever being good enough is you'll never be happy. Take your phone for what it is instead playing the "find some flaws" game with yourself...there is no perfect phone (if there was, there would only be one phone), if you get a new phone you'll find something about it to complain about just like your current phone...
take your phone for what it is and enjoy it/be happy with it.

Then you should really change the title of your thread because it very much sounds like you think the whole phone sucks, not just the gaming capability.
