Just letting you guys know that Bluestacks has released their Android App on Windows Alpha emulator. I've been playing with it for a little while now. It's pretty sweet. At least for me I especially see it as being useful for creating how-tos for users, without needing to use the SDK anymore. You guys should check it out.

Here is a copy of Minuum Keyboard (Beta) for Android...it is a completely and totally free app in Beta stage right now...Enjoy....
www.minuum.com for all the info you need about the keyboard and screenshots/videos of it in action
Let me know if Google drive link is not working I tried to fix the sharing settings
Thanks.
Had to download using laptop since dropbox links don't seem to work on my phone.
I've gotten so use to gesture typing that this method seems a little backwards.
It does have potential, hopefully the full version is more fluid like.
Hope swiping words if supported, since I like how compact the keyboard layout is.
Entering the word "gesture" was not registering at all until I manually typed it by holding the right letters.
Also having to apply space after each word shouldn't be needed, the delay after I type each word should be enough to justify its a new word.
good job..
gonna try it
:good:
This is amazing! i was waiting for this!
Thread closed for now
This Beta is not yet public.
Hey guys,
I’ve got a new game out for android. If you want to test it, send me your google email and I’ll add you to the beta testers group.
Here’s what the game looks like:

Greetings all, forgive me for my English hehe, I'm from Spain and I bought a shield, and I'm fascinated with this Android console.
I wonder if there is any chance of putting a fantastic emulator Reicast widescreen.
I tried to put = 1 wide screen but does not do well.
Any idea how to do this?.
Thank you very much.

I don't have much experience with the app but I know that the Dreamcast did not have any native widescreen games. Because of this the only way to get Widescreen to work is by stretching the image which I am assuming the option you enabled done. Sorry, I don't think there is any way around this.
I thought it odd that the Shield does not work, because in the widescreen JXD goes perfectly. Thank you very much for answering.

Sorry for replying late, but I wanted to add more to this thread.
A thread about Nvidia Shield and Reicast Emulator was posted here.
Widescreen works for me, but I had to download the latest compiled beta build here.
Here's how to install .apk files.
If games do not load:
1. Uninstall reicast
2. Download the apk behind the one you downloaded
3. Install it
Updates may break the app, so you have to do this.
Once you get reicast installed
1. Press the 3 Lines on the right
2. Go to the Path Tab
3. Set the paths of your roms and bios.
4. Go to Input Tab
5. Press Select by controller a and press a button on the nvidia shield controller
6. Go to Settings tab and Enable Widescreen mode
7. Go to Browser tab and try a game.
Widescreen mode was not available in the original dreamcast, so it is loading extra data not intended to show, so it may not look correct.
That's all. Reply if you have any trouble

:victory: :laugh::good:Thank you very much I've tried it and it works. I have long been looking for ways to solve this. Finally. You're very good.
Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish. Again thank you
Quick question, does anyone know how to add reicast to the home screen? Currently I have to go to setting then apps to load it. It's for the Shield Console not for the handheld.

The developer has to make the APP Android TV Compatible to get the Icon on the homescreen
Hi guys.
I am really hoping someone can help!
I simply cannot get Mame to launch a game when selected from within the Rom Collection Browser.
I have installed KODI 15 on my FIRE TV box - i have also "sideloaded" MAME4DROID (0.139u1) onto the box.
I have all my MAME ROMS on a NAS which i have added as a source within KODI, that bit appears fine (they can all be scraped but nothing actually happens, apart from a load of .NFO files get created - i think the maws.mameworld.info might be dead, but hey ho) and they show up within RCB
My problem is, when i first launch RCB for the first time, and run through the wizard, it never asks me WHERE my emulator is located - a EMULATOR PARAMS box comes up with a load of code, but im sure this code is wrong, and it doesnt let me POINT to the actual path of my actual MAME version (i.e MAME4DROID) is located, I beleive this is the reason why games arent launching, as although the games are appearing (from the NAS) - when i click on them, it just doesnt know how where or what to open them with.
Does anyone please have any ideas?
Many thanks all!
ManikM
I was being thick - it need RETROARCH to be installed - not MAME itself.
Sorted!
