Hi, I am new here so I apologise if I've posted in the wrong place.
I have looked through the forums, and there doesnt seem to be any help for alot of people who have asked the same question. Blank screen.
I had psx4droid running, had a bios selected, but when I tried loading a rom (ff7, which others have no issues running) I just had a black screen and nothing happened. Phone was still responsive, but nothing appeared.
Can anyone help an eager student to understand things a little more clearly.
Try a different rom, I had exactly the same issue with another game.
i have the same problem, with android 2.1 i could use psx4droid, but when i update to 2.2 psx4droid doesn't work anymore... i don't know how to fix the problem

maybe psx4droid doesnt support froyo or something. havent tested it myself, but will let you know once official froyo comes out.

a few roms wont work, idk why but they dont. try downloading different version of roms from different source and try them. maybe they will work?
If it's a .ecm file, you have to uncompress it. Search for an ecm decompiler.
Exact same issue. Roms were working smoothly on 2.1 but now they seem to crash the app everytime. I think we may just have to wait this one out
Phew, no 2.2 for me then. I play FF7 every day!
Hi, How is the sound for you guys. I am running on a samsung epic and the video is incredible smooth for a lot of games but the sound, while it isn't terrible it is no where near what I would describe as good. I'll just use the final fantasy as my example. Is there a specific format that is better for me to rip my games to like .iso, .bin .img to get better sound?
the sound is sometimes choppy and sometimes slightly garbled. They are still playable but if I can improve them it would be great.

Sound is choppy for me on my Samsung Galaxy i9000.
I wish he would code it so it uses Open GL rather than the software renderer, that way he'd get much better performance out of the graphics leaving the CPU to process the sound and other things.
Judging by his schedule, he's not that interested in optimizing the emu.
Only had the SGS for 2 weeks now.Came from Symbian phones.
So I tested all the emu's for them in the day,the picodrive,the Vampent SNES and GBA emu's etc.
So when I browsed the market and saw a psx emu I was amazed....sure come a long way to be able to run a psx emu on a mobile phone (of sorts).
Yeah,while not that many roms work and a bit slow with sound I think it sure is a big achievement to have a psx emu at all. Damn amazes me.
This phone (and the android OS) still suprises me.

PSX4Droid
Today I found the PSX4Droid and was trying to set it up. It tells me that I have to specify the BIOS file(s) before I can play any games can someone tell me what it or they are and where I can find them please.
Yeah,you need the the PSX bios file.
Ofcourse you should have your own from a disc you own D) otherwise google scph 1001 and you will find
(Hope its allowed to post this if not Mods please delete)
i would love for this to get a big update, as great as it is to have a psx emulator on my phone there is very few games that actually work and even less that work correctly.
i know this is new though so i have faith even though it did take years for it to be as good as it is on pc so it may not be in this generation on phones that we see great emulation (maybe 3.0 phones if were lucky)
Hey all,
Perhaps I should post this in the captivate forums being that I have one, but I will start my question here.
As far as the emulation goes, just about everything runs perfectly that I have tried other than Tekken 3.
My question is: has anyone found a way to swap disks (like FFVII requires) without having to use a psx emulator on your pc and changing the file names etc...?
psx4droid + Ginger xxkpe?
thats it. ill like to ask if any1 had luck booting a rom on Ace with that OS thx
soz if i sound nuubish, thats just cos i am
btw ill like to say hi in this my first post and thank the community for this awesome place
I'd like to buy this tablet, but I found there's no market app and I have the installation .apk file extracted from nexus one.
Can I install this market in order to get other applications from there?

I read that, but I'd wait until the 14 days trial is over, so I have to be sure the .apk manual install works before installing update.
I have the Elocity A7 but since it lacks a true capacitive multi-touch screen i bought this tablet http://www.brandsdragon.com/products/product_30627.htm just to play around with. Its only $153 shipped to the US.

Installing apks manually works fine. Some apps still won't work, but in general, it works fine. But you won't be able to install just the market (vending.apk) without most of what Dexter has put in his ElocityMod.

Actually, I already have another tablet purchased for $180. It has Android Market but I couldn't find slingplayer, so I have to extract it from rooted XT720 and install, but soon I found the video quality is poor (slow), so I am wondering will A7 work with slingplayer.
Even it doesn't have Market, I can extract the apps from rooted nexus one and XT720 and "side load" them.
MARKET INSTALLED AND WORKING on eLocity A7!
HELLO,
I just got my a7 yesterday after purchasing a archos 70 (250gb) and bricking it in about 25 minutes trying to install android market i returned it and picked up thiS tablet. although it doest have multi touch, and anywhere near as big of a hard drive i still am happy that i went with this. It runs much faster than the archos and i love having the option of using my memory stick with it. What i hate is it cant be pluged directly to my pc and copy files over that way, and that pinch to zoom doesnt work properly since this doesnt have a real multitouch capacitive screen. If i wasnt able to get market capabilities i would not have kept the device and to be honest i still might return it within my 30 days and pick up somthing else.
to get Market and google aps installed i recomend using Dexters Mod (available at dext3r.komodin.org or you can search for him here on xda). It is real simple to use. here is quick rundown in a few short steps on how i did it.
1. download 'ElocityMod v1.0c.rar' to your pc
2. rename the 'ElocityMod v1.0c' to 'update.rar'
3. copy 'update.rar' from your pc to my memory stick (or you can use a micro sd card)
4. insert memory stick into elocity a7
5. go to 'settings' - 'about device' - 'System updates' - 'Update device'
6. it update using dexters mod and gave me market capabilities as well as the android layout i am accustomed to without elocitys crapy UI.
Now, as for apps, i havent had any aps that did not work yet on my a7. I am currently runing ADW Home, google voice (cant make calles but lets me SMS), youtube, xda-dvelopers forum app, avg antivirus (freee), aBTC, and WinAmp and all work fine so far. I have seen many posts complaining tha they are having issues with runing apps not made for the A7 but i am yet to run into any issues.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK DEXTER FOR ALL HIS HARD WORK! DONT KNOW WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT HIS MOD FILE!

the cpu doesn't compare to the tegra2. it doesn't seem to have accelerometer. i wouldn't go for one of these. a couple months ago, i went for a cheap $120 7" tablet from a no name in china - total junk. then i decided to get the elocity a7. i'm pleased with it now, except for the screen... now i'm thinking i should have just went with galaxy tab... if only galaxy tab had their next gen (dual core) processor in it...

I am new at this. I am trying to get the Android market on mu eLocity A7. I down loaded the file per your directionin the thread and the file I down loaded is "ElocityModv10c.zip". Your instructions in your thread say to rename the file .rar. I tried running the .zip file but it would not run. Does your instruction refer to renaming the zip file from ElocityModv10c.zip to ElocityModv10c.rar? Please advise what I am doing wrong

First, the latest one is the ElocityMod v1.1. That is what you want to install.
Second, the "ElocityModv11.zip" should be renamed "Update.zip".
it is all right here:

I did as you suggested and everything loaded correctly. However, when it did a reboot, it simply cycles the elocity logo every 6-7 seconds. Any suggestions?

Hold the power button fot 12 to 15 seconds to power of the device. Then turn it back on.
If that dosen't clear you issue try Booting into recovery and select "wipe data/factory reset", then reboot.
I like the cheap price

Did you get this tablet yet?
It seems like they might be falsifying information on the site. The linked tablet has a Telechips TCC8902 which doesn't have a 2.2 (Froyo) out on any of the mainstream tablets with that same chip i.e. Gentouch 78 and the Coby Kyros, they both have 2.1 (Eclair.) The touchscreen is resistive and NOT capacitive so, I'm not sure about multitouch. Also, the TCC8902 chip has GL issues so 3D games like Angry birds, Aslphalt5, and others with have graphics issues.
I owned a Coby Kyros which has pretty much the same hardware and returned it simply becasue of the graphics issues and got the eLocity A7.
Elocity A7 - Requested item could not be found
Hi,
I have applied Dexter's mods since 1.0 and they have made my Elocity A7 a wonderfully usable tablet. Otherwise it was more of a $299.00 door stop
All kidding aside, thanks Dexter. But since applying the 1.4 mod, the market place is not allowing me install apps that were available previously. I've been reading for solutions but not finding anything yet.
Has anyone else found this problem and a way to fix it?
Thanks
In these cases specifics like which apps might be very helpful.
Hi,
First a correction, mod 1.41 with display patch. The following apps will not install for example:
Dolphin Browser HD
SliceIt
Adobe Flash Player 10.2 hulu fix
Voice Search
There are more but I cannot recall them all. I was able to load these from backups but would like to know what has changed to cause the new problem.
I can tell you that I had backed out 1.3 and restored to 1.2 so was using the older version of market. Wondering if the new version is not happy with Elolcity?
I have sendlog outut if anyone wants it.
Hello guys, I got the Neo.
Still tweaking it as long as a non-rooted device allows but i have one really frustrating problem. Well, the Asphalt 5 runs smoothly and without problems and it's a real 3D game. However, neither the Nova, nor the Assassin Creed for example run. It starts and etc but there are many places on the screen lacking graphics, it's like not having the right nvidia/ati drivers and everything is "transparently black" The same situation is with the Gangster. Where the problem comes from and how can i fix it ...?

Actually no idea what is that and if Im using it
Add - I looked around and can firmly say that Im not using it, cause as i understood, it is an additional 3d party app that requires root and since my phone is fresh out of the oven I still cannot risk to root it without having a complete and only for the neo guide for doing it
@cooin
The rooting procedure for both phones should be the same. Only the firmware would be neo specific.
I wonder if there is anybody else trying out the new ShadowGun game using chainfire3D on our DHD.
i ask cause i have some issues. it runs quite smooth but freezes/reboots in 9 out of 10 case during the game play. and i am curious if there are others for which it runs fine and what kernel/roms and settings they are using.
I have virtuosus 2.39 and lord bfs kernel but I have tried also with unity 9 kernel and oc up 1152mhz but the games freezes on first battle with first two monster!
I have reduced texture size and quality and disabled map buffer emu but I can't play this wonderful game!
Any advice??

yes the same issue did i had even though once, yes only once i managed to play a bit further.
but now there was an update to the game and it doesn't seem to freez or reboot anymore but it has now other issues:
enemies are invisible but the aiming cross still colors red when pointing on them. also it seems that the enemies do not see me Oo
and the bullet shells that come out of my gun when shooting are only pink squares.
but till now it didn't crashed or froze. i tried nearly every combination of chainfire3d settings but allways the same.
try the update, maybe you have more luck. can only hope it improves in the near future.

Inviato dal mio Desire HD usando Tapatalk
it is in the market from where i got it. it offers now an update. after updating it also downloads 250mb of new game data.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.madfingergames.shadowgun
The graphic bug comes from a broken download version. they have fixed it now, download again and it works. except for dhd...
with a dhd you see again no models (without reduced textures) or it crashes (with reduced textures) if somebody dies (maybe the blood animation, if you look away direktly after the kill, it works).
i hope somebody can fix this
thank you very much for the info. lets hope chainfire can do something about this.... quick.
i can play game in version 1.0 and not problems.
could you give some details? rom? settings?
cause we alle played it also with version 1 and you seem to be the only one being able to play it.
i once could play it to without crash but only a single time.
htctouchelfin found a possible solution for us DHD users for running ShadowGun without crash/reboots:
install this shaders:
http://www.multiupload.com/AKPTZRBHFZ
activate "disable map buffer emulation"
activate "reduce texture sizes"
the shaders are not from him, but i still don't know from where. when i know i will report back.

i think this is due to reduced texture size. this has quite some impact. but you could try disabling this and instead use reduce texture quality. if it works report back. currently i do not have time for that to test myself.
hi i used the shader and it worked to ckear the first level,and i also finished the second level but the problem starts again in the level 3.it again freezes and i need to hold power key of 20sec to switch my phone.pls post if u find any new shader to fix it.my mobile is samsung galaxy s plus i9001
htctouchelfin also found this:

you have to replace the files in the game directory with this, because the game crashes in level 3 or 4.
This may sound dumb as hell, but it says on the market this game won't work on my phone, if I install chainfire3D will it make it work ?
