We Tested Google Stadia in India - Our Experience. - Android Gaming

Hey Guys, Today here we will be sharing our experience with Google Stadia. Specifically how it works in India or in any country where it has not been launched yet.
As you all know, With Google Stadia you can play high-end titles on your TV, Laptop, or even on your Android Phone. That's exciting.
We will tell you how we tried Google Stadia being in India where it currently isn't launched. And how can you try it in any country where Stadia isn't launched yet. Also, share our experience.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Q. How can we use stadia where it isn't launched yet?
A:- The idea is simple & basic. All you need to do is to Use a VPN (Free or Paid doesn't really matter as long as you're getting the minimum Speeds i.e 10Mbps as per Google claims. And then you can simply go to the stadia site & sign up normally as you do for any service.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Our Experience With Stadia, Using in India:-
** We were still getting around 40Mbps of speed even after we were connected to VPN. So speeds should not be an issue here for us.
To be very honest the experience was quite not great. The Stadia page loads fast, The games do load fast but the problem was inside the games, there was lag & latency. And it wasn't playable, to be honest.
Maybe it's because the Data Centers being too far from the location hence resulting in High Latency & lag.

That is funny, I just got off the phone with those clowns and no one knew what I was talking about. I pointed the service dude to the web and listened while he read it followed with a 'huh...not sure'.
I then did a search and came up with your thread (from today!!). Great minds I tell you, or are you just as bored at work as I am today
Either way, No love for ICS (phone variety) and no streaming like ios. Just another reason for me to hate TWC!!
Customer service has no clue...wish it was supported!!!
My girlfriend can run it on her (crappy) HTC Aria. Works well too.
I may have to try my old DInc (it is wifi only at this point) when I get home. I do hope they get the live TV watching working (like Direct TV has) shortly.
My girlfriend has an Ipad (I'm not an apple fan myself) and TWC has a NICE app people can watch tv on their Ipads with. Pretty impressive.
If they made something like that for Android it would be awesome!
The only catch is you have to be connected to your TWC road runner at home for it to work, so its kinda pointless really, unless you don't own a TV - in which case why pay for cable?
hey sorry every body i work for twc and they do not tell us anything about it i has a 5 min training while i was on a call with a customer about the app. also this was 1 day before release date. please just don't be mad at us on the phones.

Anyone know why this wouldn't work on ICS?

Blogging site Xanga just released an app and it's not accessible for anything running 3.0+. As soon as I open the app, I get this.

Is there any way of "tricking" the app into thinking I'm running 2.3 or something? I've spoken to the developer and he said they only had 2.3 devices to test with so until they get something newer, they aren't looking into it. Any thoughts?

Tell them to download 4.0 simulator... crazy replied from the developer
I told them to root their phones and install an ICS rom.

I've found that most developers are pretty good with updating their apps for new versions. Right before the Galaxy Nexus came out I remember my phone/tablet grabbing tons of updates, and usually the update notes would say "Android 4.0 compatibility added".
But there are some developers who have either abandoned their apps completely, or just don't see the need to invest in keeping their apps updated and in tip-top shape. It's a shame, because I feel a lot of them are primarily interested in iOS, and ported their stuff over because of the demand for Android versions, but then don't really think investing their time into the Android version is worth their while.
All a part of the ecosystem I guess. Good thing about Android is that if an app isn't coded to work properly or gets abandoned, there are usually quite a few alternatives.

[Q] Need help testing MAME4Droid please

Hello, long-time reader but first-time poster here.
MAME4Droid has 3 different video render modes, with GL (Faster) theoretically the quickest. On my Xperia Play though the SW (+Threaded) mode is about 20% faster than GL (Faster).
Would anyone mind checking this on their Play please? I'm wondering if either my Play is on the way out, or if this happens for all Play users.
In the general settings you should enable 'Threaded sound' and 'Show FPS', and in the game settings set 'Video Sync = OFF'.
Thanks.
Anyone, please? Should only take 10 minutes to test.
Do you mean the 0.134 version?

Either version please, 0.134 or 0.37b5.
I've spoken to the author about this, GL mode should be much faster but it's slightly slower on my Play. Would be good if you could try it too, thanks.

Yes, working flawlessly. It's official now.
On first run mentioned that HW acceleration is not supported. What was that crap?
After discarding the message the app works...

Check out the GooglePlay reviews if you aren't convinced, hopefully you like what you will read
what? NDS Emulator?
Game ON with Pokemon games!!!
although gaming session will only last only few hours, probably 40 minutes without charging...
Oh men that's sweet, i'm NDS fan. Have you played some pokemon on S2, is the performance good?. they should provide a free test or something to check that out.
I hope you could buy it via paypal :/.
EDIT: Sorry, over reacted, seems the thing is still early beta, so games that run are slow. Well nothing new then, hope he gets somewhere soon.
Well from my own experience with v1.7 (huge improvement over 1.6 btw)
Pokemon games play at an edurable pace. It also seems faster then nds4droid but again I think that might just my thoughts.
This is however this is the most worthwhile purchase I made from the play store recently
