[Q] Cannot save input settings for fpse - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I recently got a brand new Xperia play running android version 2.3.3 and installed fpse v 0.10.59 on it. I have played Final Fantasy IX and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and they work great, but the problem I'm having is that fpse won't save my settings.
Everytime I open fpse I have to change the input settings to turn off the touch screen control pad and remap all of my hardware keys. I have tried going to the System menu and pressing "Default config save" but that only seems to save my system settings, not the input settings.
Does this emulator really not save the input settings, or is there something I'm doing wrong?

It should save the settings the way you do it. I know I have had problems with this in the past in older versions when it took a few tries for it to stick. But not for a while.
If you load up the emulator, change button config, press the "save default config" button, then load up a game and play a little. Then press menu to "exit" the emulator so it takes you to your homescreen. Next time you start FPse and load up the game, does not the keys you mapped stick at all?

Yeah the buttons didn't stick at all when I made that post, but I fixed my problem in a way.
I uninstalled and downgraded to version 0.10.57, and the buttons save just fine. As far as I know there's not really any functional disadvantages to using this version, so I guess I'll just stick with it for now. I might try another reinstall with the latest version to see if it was the reinstall itself that fixed it, regardless of the version, which I think will probably be the case as they really aren't that different.
Oh well, for now I will be enjoying some Final Fantasy IX

Same Issue Maybe...
I can't get key mappings to stick even for a session, I change the settings, close the menu, notice settings had no effect reopen menu and see defaults again. Same thing with enabling cheats. I don't have access to older version apk only what is available on play store so I can't downgrade as gp did.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

S2P...Will it work on Dash?

Hey guys, Ok I know that S2u2 and S2P are intended for touch screens. However, I was able to get S2u2 to work perfectly with a few minor registry changes. I would like to use S2P (another one of A_C programs), but I have not been able to get it to work. I am using version .40 and have found no registry keys that can help. Does anyone have any ideas? It looks like a cool program to incorportate with S2u2. Thanks for the advise.

How did you get s2u2 to work exactly, can you share which version you used and the reg settings? If i can get that going, I'll try to help you with the s2p.
The version of S2u2 is v1.01. When I first installed it it seemed to work but the default setting is to shut the phone off after 30 seconds of being locked so I changed that setting
hkey current user\ Software\ A_C\ S2u2\ OffLCD=17
OffLCD should be 0
THe other settings are just cosmetic. I changed the clock setting to "h" instead of "HH" so it wouldnt show military time. And I changed the file path in hkey current user\ Software\ A_C\ S2u2\ wallpaper to point to .gif files for animated wallpaper.
Thanks a bunch for the help. I really like the look of s2u2 and I think that you will to.
I also got S2U2 to work. The only problem,,,, and this is a BIG problem for me, is that the S2U2 "screensaver" would not stay on infinitely for me. If i had the phone setting there for a while and "woke up" the screen i saw that the s2U2's program was not running in the foreground and showed me the default homescreen. It was still running, however, in the background since i saw it in task manager. If i clicked on it again in task manager, the program started right back up. I'm not sure if this is a conflict of another program ( like smarttoolkit, or the weather app, or photo contacts pro) or if it's because it wasn't made for smartphones. I would love to get a fully ported version for WM 6.1 standard though.
I am still running 6.0. This could be why I have had a different result with
S2u2.
why don't u guys post what others ppc apps that works on dash??
I tried the s2u2 v 1.05 and my phone doesn't like it, maybe i had the settings wrong. I installed and then tried to run ilock, and got error. I could run s2u2 and start the lock manually though. Once i locked it, if i pressed any key, the display would light up. If i was on battery power and pressed the center key to wake it up, then the display would not come on at all , but my keypad lights would and it would lock up my phone and get stuck like that until i removed the battery. I thought I disabled it, but then I got a phone call and the slide to answer screen came up(without the slide though) and then i couldn't unlock the phone and had to pull the battery again. I finally uninstalled. Is there some reg settings that are mandatory to get it to work or is it just that buggy on smartphones?
The only reg change thats manditor is the offlcd=0. I am using V1.01. I wonder if that could be part of the issue. It never did that for me but I am on the old 6.0.

yeah, I did the offlcd=0, because without it when I manually ran it, it turned power completely off, like you said earlier. I couldn't find the 1.01 version.

pm me...i have 1.01 if you want it
Ok, got 101, now no more glitches, so it was problems caused by 1.05. But s2p doesn't seem to have a chance without dpad controls available. On the s2u2, how come it doesn't autoset when display turns off? Is there a reg setting for this? And is it just me, or is the display supposed to light up whenever a key is pressed. I still have to unlock for the key to work, but I can't have the display turning on whenever I accidentally touch a key.

Galarm and Gyrator problem

Hi!
I have installed both Gyrator 2 and Galarm 1.2.3 in my blackstone.
When the alarm rings both snooze actions when 'when device turned down' and 'when you shake the device' do not work.
I know that it is because of Gyrator.
Is there a fix on this?
g
Hi!
I think Version 1.03 of Galarm is working good with shake for closing program also with screen off
FYI. There's a new version - 1.2.4. But same problem, tilt sensor feature doesn't work.
I 've heard that this problem is solved if you differentiate some settings in the Gyrator application.
Anyone with a hint on this?
g
Hey guys, there's a new version GAlarm 1.4. The tilt sensor feature is working great!!

thank you

The last app I installed was Galarm. I did this last night.
Since then I have had a few problems with my HD.
1) twice since midnight last night I have used TF3D to access settings > communications, before loading the communications screen the device hangs, then I hear the default beep randomly and untill I perform a soft reset.
2) Soft key menus have been very buggy all through the OS. Most noticable in Opera, and Coreplayer. Taping the soft key menu results in just an outline being shown while the actual menu is transparent.
While installing Galarm it asked me if it could fix a known bug, I allowed it to. But am now wondering if this could have been the cause?
I'm not blaming Galarm per se, but it is the last piece of software that I installed. Has anyone else had similer problems?

Yes I get the same menu problems, if you press up or down then the menu choices appear but often vey corrupted. I stopped using Galarm for a couple of days and I never had the problem, I used it this mornning and my menus got corrupted again. At the same time I get my start menu appearing blank (transparent). I'm going to download another clock program and use it for a month then I'll switch to Galarm for a definitive test.

Home button repeatedly asks for default launcher

This is really becoming annoying! I click the Home button, then I check the set default and click Launcher Pro. For a couple of uses, the Home button automatically takes me to Launcher Pro. Then, I'll be web browsing or checking email, click Home, and the options pop-up comes up again asking which launcher i want to use. This happens over and over again. I've even tried sing HTC Sense UI and ADW, same problem. Any possible solutions?
(btw, I'm fully rooted w/ NAND unlocked and I'm running Damage Control 3.2.3 and I've tried uninstalling HTC Sense UI as well as a few other bloatware, which helped things become much more stable, unfortunately this problem still pops up. Oh, 1 more thing, launching web links seem to always ask for which browser to use also, even if I check a default, repeatedly. Could this be related?)
Did you search for the answer?
It's the qik update, uninstall it or reset your default home every time you long press the home button and choose a recently open program.
of course I searched, but I couldn't figure out how to do a boolean AND (I finally was able to find + using google and it works nicely. xda would go a long way to include a little tutorial on how to best use forum search on the advanced search page) so my search wasn't fruitful. I uninstalled Qik. It helped the problem. Thanks for the tip!

myTouch Slide Keyboard Shortcuts Problem

I am a newbe to the whole android deal but let me state my problem.
When i do a fresh reboot on my phone the keyboard works fine. After a while certain keys go to certain things on the phone. For an example, keyboard working fine then all of the sudden when i push the G key it goes to Gmail or when i push the Y key to goes to youtube. It causes a big problem with my texting. I don't mind using swype but i got the phone for the keyboard.
For the life of me i can't figure out how to turn it off this setting. It is annoying. I have wiped my phone and did a fresh install and still doing the same thing.
Any help would be great
Thank You
go to settings > applications > quick launch. & clear all of the shortcuts
Thank you so much

Default keyboard android 5.0.2

Hey guys
So currently I have SwiftKey and six axis controller installed both of which need to be enabled in language and input settings to work which they are with no problem. Although for some strange reason six axis controller will take over as the default input method even if I set it to be SwiftKey it will always eventually go back to six axis!
It's annoying because whenever I want to make a quick note or use my tablet quickly for something the keyboard won't pop up automatically and instead I find myself having to drag down the notification tray to change the input method.
Is there anyway I can have them both enabled and both work as they should?
Thanks
Alex
