[Game] Nes Emulator -[R]- 5th Jan 2011 -[U]- 14th Feb 2011 -[V]- 1.2

Name: NES Emulator for Windows Phone 7
Instructions for loading rom files:
1) Sideload the app to the phone by dev tools or some other means
2) The app appears in the xbox live tab among with other games.
3) Roms are added by typing in an direct http url (ie. http://www.myhomepages.com/roms/somegame.nes) and clicking download, if all goes well the rom appears on the main listbox.
3.5) Zip files are not supported. Get that Rom directly somehow
4) select rom and click play
Gaming mode application buttons are pause/play, save, load and sounds on/off
Most of the nes roms should work.
Source: Me.
Download Link: http://www.cs.uta.fi/~tp79800/nes/Emu120.xap
update: updated xap url, but still same old emulator

Page is offline

i didn't get this. how does this emulator work?
if i sideload it, no app appears in my list. if i type in your site in the mobile IE theres just a big button with "download silverlight".
"tested" on HTC HD7

same for me. Is there anything in the XAP ?

App or the emulator should appear in the xbox live panel where other games are.

It's really slow on my LG Quantum. @ First I thought it did not work, but my zelda rom must be corrupt ( or unsupported here ). It played super mario bro's just fine, just slow & no sound at all.
I dl'd it to my laptop, chevron-unlock ( 'cause my phone locks every 5 minutes or so ), tom's xap install. Put in the url to my nes rom, hit download, hit play & it plays.
Note: can ONLY be played in portrait mode. In landscape mode, the controller takes up half the screen, so you don't see much of the game screen.
recommendation: allow users to map buttons to controls in-game. ie, my Quantum has a nice slide-out keyboard so I wouldn't need the dodgy on-screen controller.

Damn that it's slow.
First priority should be to increase framerate to playable rate. Then the UI improvements.
Sounds are enabled by pressing the gearwheel button.

confused:
"Type in url to some .nes file of your choosing and click middle button (download)"
anyone elaborate on this?

i would also like to know how to do this

You need to get .nes files to your device somehow.
Currently only implemented way is to download it to the device by typing in a direct link to a rom file ie. http://www.myhomepages.com/upload/mario.nes (imaginary link)
Upload your rom files to your own homepages or find some files online and use those links.

thats what i figgered i had to do. but still cant get it to go. keeps bringing up a error when i try to load the .nes...
edit: found out i can download the file if i rename it to 'rom.nes' (AKA case sensitive) but still gives a error when trying to play it.
edit edit: tried 5 diff. roms. all come back as "ROM was not valid"

I run it at my focus
1. Slow! just 40% NES Speed
2. No Multitouch control

I added some ARM specific tweaks, let's see if that helps..
What's the framerate now?

Samsung Focus, don't press sound button
The Key of Solomon
18~20 framerate
FF3
18~24 framerate
Press sound button
The Key of Solomon
16~17 framerate
FF3
16~17 framerate
But press the sound button can't hear Sound.

I get "The remote server returned an error: NotFound" when i try to download a rom. Interestingly though it worked once after I turned my WIFI on, but the rom was not valid

Is there a rubric or something to tell us which romsets work? I've tried GoodROMs that I've had on my PC for ages and have played countless times on countless emus on countless devices.. etc, and this app throws back an 'unsupported' error.

Tried it on my Focus and it worked fine; A little slow, as the others are saying, but the gameplay was smooth. Controls were a little slow to respond at times, but it worked fine all-in-all. FYI: ROM tested: Super Mario Bros NES
Gave it some attention here, also, a picture of it running on my Focus. Looks nice!

Easy way to get a URL
If you use DropBox you can quickly put a rom in your public folder and get the URI from the DropBox right click menu...
--------------
BTW, I'm the author of a SharpDropBox Client for .NET (over on CodePlex -- sharpdropbox.codeplex.com -- sorry not enough posts here to post an outside link) which is really just a client for WP7. I'm not sure if the author used XNA or Silverlight, but if he used the latter he could integrate my library to make it easy for those of us who can sideload to get stuff on the device. If not, I'm not sure if my library will work with XNA or not (I need to learn XNA and figure this out)
I'm hoping to give a talk on this at MIX this year (I'm actually working on creating a client library for a few other similar services for WP7).
Anyway, if he wants to get in contact with me I would love to give him a hand with this..

Next version is up, 1.1.0.
I hope for better framerate! and touch input should be more responsive now.
I also tried that dropbox api, but the login didn't work.

Shame on you having me do testing on the morning of my Birthday
Results in a minute....
Mario Bros 1 on previous ver: 23-29 FPS (about 38-49% speed)
wasn't able to test on new version, games that loaded in first version did not load at all in new version.. Seems even pickier than before...
tried 10 diff games from 3 diff sets. Same results
Tuska: If you can PM me and I can help with testing. I have a Dell Venue Pro and am experienced with using rom/emus

Testing request of the aplication Tv Shows Stream

TV SHOWS STREAM (v3.2 or +) DOES FULLY SUPPORT MOTOROLA XOOM
THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR HELP, SPECIALLY TO "Xezuka" XDA MEMBER
------------------------------------
Hi,
We have been working on "tv shows stream" android aplication and we whoul'd really like to know if it is working properly under Motorola Xoom using android 3.0 stock .
This device is not being sold yet at Europe...and we can not wait to know if the aplication will work fine
You can find the full thread of our aplication here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903351
The lite version is free and you can find it on market by searching "TV Shows Stream"
Thanks in advanced for the testing, we will really apreciate.

what does you app do? is it just a streaming site client?

Not exactly.
I dont want to advertise the aplication here and thast why i didnt say a description, but basically the aplication searchs over internet for tv-shows links capables to be played directly on your device, with full screen support using megavideo, frogmovz, karambavidz and other hosting services. The search results are shown in a intuitive and easy to use interface.
You can find a detailed description in the xda thread of the aplication:

You are right, my mistake, i thught it was already availeable. So I will have to wait a bit more, thanks for the information.
Maybe I should close the thread and re-open it after flash has been released.

The app is now starting up, looks, and runs great. I've been waiting for this! Android 2.2~ version on my Droid X is amazing. Just waiting for Flash...

Just tried it out on both my Xoom and Captivate.
I am pretty sure things are working on the Captivate as they should, so used that as a guide. Hehe Test videos played through each host, low Res, but no issues.
OK.. on the Xoom the UI seems fine and works. Problems come up when playing the videos. When playing a Megavideo link the MV interface comes up with no player controls, nothing else happens. When trying Frogmovz or Karambavids.. I get a black screen with no video controls. Touching the center of the screen has triggered play/pause, but I just seem to get audio and no video is shown.
I tried out playing Megavideos through their website and that worked fine for me.

Hi,
The same problems have been reported by using unoficial flash version on htc evo. The solution was uninstall flash and reinstall from market.
Are you using the leaked version of flash 10.2 right?
It should be availeable on 18th on android market for all devices and it should fix the sound with no video issue.
Thanks for the infor, it wil really help us.

I have same issue with Xoom also. Works great and love the app on my fascinate.

Hello,
I have a paid for version of TV Shows Stream, it works on my Nexus One thanks very much for that. I admit that I probably never use it, but I like it and it works most of the time.
I have a Xoom, with v3.0.1 and the leaked Flask 10.2 APK. At this time, flash content via the stock browser seems to work fine but TV Shows Stream does not seem to work properly. All browsers come up with a blank window more or less, I tried a few megavideo and karambozworths.

Yes, it works great on the Nexus One but on the Xoom with the leaked 10.3 flash you can hear the sound but no video. Hope you get it working because it would be great to watch it on a larger screen!

I probably wouldn't be too concerned for now as the leaked version is having issues in other browsers as well. I'm not sure if that'd be because they don't see the leaked version or what... but as with the others, the app works fantastically on my Droid X but has no Video or Audio for the Xoom running the leaked Flash 10.2
Ill update again when its officially released March 18th and reinstalled.

TV Shows Stream full is my fav app and I use it daily on my Droid X with no issues. Cannot wait for xoom compatibility which as previously mentioned should be resolved when the official flash file is available on market March 18 if I read correctly. I will def uninstall the leaked file and load the official 10.2 release and report back on its usuability on my xoom. Great app btw dev. -

I have the Flash leak for my Xoom and I concur the app opens and you can see the list of shows but just cannot play the video (or see the video controls), just a blank screen.
However, I emailed myself a link for a show (from within your app) and then opened the link in the email with my broswer. The video played fine with no problems. Thus I assume when the official Flash 10.2 is released this week we will be able to load the video from right within the app - as I do on my Droid X.
BTW -great app - best money spent on an app. Keep up the awsome work

tv shows
I use the TV shows application all the time on my xoom. Right now u just have to email yourself the link for the video you want to play. I copy and paste the link in dolphin hd browser. Just make sure dolphin hd is in desktop mode. I doing this I can stream video fine, thanks for the great app also I have the leaked version of flash installed.

Hi
Is a usefull workaround but we have the intention to offer a better solutions.
We are almost sure that with the official release of flash player will work as it works most of devices, but we are already working in alternative solutions.
We have already a working solution in some video servers, karambavidz and Loombo (loombo will be added in next update) will have an option for watching the videos using any of the player you have installed on the phone, even native android player. FastForward and RW completelly working and very smooth playback, as not flash player will be used on those videos. More info soon, we are hard working right now on it.

Hi
Can someone uninstall the leaked version of flash and install the official 10.2 from market to chec if the problems still persist? Thanks in advanced.

Yes Haze, I've got the paid version and the behavior is the same. On the Xoom, the leaked version was 10.2.155.67 and todays version is 10.2.166.12 so I suspect very minor changes.

In the next update, Karambavidz video links will be able to be watched in the native android player or any other player , without the need of flash player.
You can also email yourself the link and open it with the dolphin HD broser as a temporary workaround, it has been reported to work fine.
We are working on it , thanks for the testing time.

choppy streaming video

I have only had my nook color 2 weeks and i have noticed streaming video on most sites is very choppy or jummpy for lack of better terms. Is there something i could.change to fix this. I am running stock software and am also wondering if CM7 on a sd card would do the same thing or is it better?
Thanks

CM7 definitely has better video performance. Try it.

Choppy jumpy streaming video espn3 espn360 codec flv?
Choppy jumpy streaming video, poor video quality; espn3 espn360 codec flv?
I gave out refurbs with cm7 for x-=mas and they are all choppy when viewing online video espn 3 espn360...Here is the fix!
EDIT: 1.download nook tweaks off market by dalgrin...
2. Download free cpu govenor(forget actual name")
3. In nook tweaks apply these settings in this post(also shown below) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...104039&page=18
Make sure interactive X governor is on, here are my settings(some user in eariler post, not me)
300- step 1 is 0.8125v
600- step 2 is 1.0v
800- step 3 is 1.1875v
1100- step 4 is 1.25v
1200- step 5 is 1.2875 check the restore on boot box (someone said 1.3 worked better for them)
Voltage settings never stick even if I press reboot, instuructions are arond pg 19 of that link I refrenced above if you want to alter a linux like command to fix or you could flash cm7 nightly 253(I was running stable cm 7.1), now settings stick!
For some reason JIT and keep home app in memory are two check boxes that I had success with in Cyanogen settings...Only two i have checked, still playing around with this as I am trying to see what works best with my infrastructure mode on my samsung galaxy s epic.
EDIT: Using dolfin browser and is working better than the stock browser! too! set your screen timeout for 30min if you wish to watch trouble free! Happy new year!
EDIT: Have not traced the problem yet but something keeps messing with my wifi connection to my sph-700 samsung epic in infrastructure mode... fix is to turn off wifi and backout to home one screen at a time check and uncheck keep home app and jit and change ondemand to acive x or conservative, then again backout one screen at a time... re-enable wifi and fixed for a spell...this randomly started happening and I hope its my wifi(which it prolly is)

Thanks @cajl for good news !

This update doesn't make sense... why update an OS that you as a developer are going to replace with ICS in the next few days anyway ?
Or maybe it is because they can't keep their promise of bringing ICS to our devices in the first week of February...

i just hope they won't delay the ICS update for G9 tablets.

-ICS is still quite new, there may be some apps that are not compatible- in business use for example
-if Google want's to check ICS build first (G8 is Google certified) it will take some time especially that G9 system structure is different than on other devices
-it is really nice IMHO to see that maker takes so much care about product, none of my other Android devices had so often released updates (mainly updates were for new Android version, eg. 2.1->2.2)

I agree that it is nice that Archos Devices get these frequent updates, I just think that their attention at this point should be focused on getting ICS out to the customers.
No disrespect or anything was intended towards Archos in any way.

Ils sont trop bien Archos
There are so good Archos!!!! Thank you for the reactivity!

I think we may still see ICS very soon, because since Archos promised it in the first week of Feb, they'd probably make some sort of statement if that wasn't going to happen. As for this update, I agree with fact that it was in considation for those that can't use ICS for app requimeht reasons, like businesses.
Sent from my ARCHOS 80G9 using Tapatalk

it would be nice if Archos responded to the question about where ICS is that I posted on their Facebook Site... but the question got removed as soon as I posted it.

I have to say that my g9 80 has been a lot less stable on 3.2.80, I've had many browser crashes (stock browser and opera) and flash playback is very buggy, it either crashes the browser or video locks up but the sound keeps playing.
Roll on the next firmware!

New Google OTA 14975

So google silently pushed out a update without putting it in their blog first (strange), but I thought id make a thread for people to post noticeable changes and such. So far from my searching, ive found:
Better TV output detection (probably to fix the black screen bug people have reported)
Updated netflix & eureka_shell binary
Still does not fully use V2 API, so V1 apps still work
I am guessing this was just a patch fix build. Let me know what you guys notice.

doesn't matter as device still refuses to join network.
edit: odd. ran CCast app on pc. booted up straight away. what ever works i guess.

It now supports audio when casting entire screen. Not very high quality.

I find full screen casting better than tab casting. Text are sharper and focused compared to tab casting. Watched a 720p movie on full screen... No sync issues. Casting full screen notification hides behind video player, when player uses full screen mode.
