I have tried the snes emulator and I have not been able to get zelda to run on it... is there some reason it runs like crap on my mda... perhaps im not using the proper version of snes or perhaps I dont have a good rom even..
I have it overclocked and still get an unplayable game....
perhaps setting tweaks or something...
im about to load gba emulator and see how that works for me...
please anyone else using any game emulators please let me know
or if you even have a fun game also let me know
thanks everyone

*edit*
yeah I just tried pocket GBA and I cant get that to run well either...
it does however run way better than the snes emu atleast for zelda...
I have yet to try other roms
Try the SNES emulator on page 4 of
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=50806&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75
You will need to use total commander or similar to change the language from Japanese to English
You will also need to overclock your device. The Omap tool is available on this site.
awesome thanks...
yeah I just needed the newer snes emulator...
works great
Make sure you also read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306444 for the latest info & a lot of tips & compatibility info on SNES emulators.

pocketatari - atari xl emu - 100% on wizard - NUMEN
pocketcommodore - c64 - 100% on wizard - FIRE TRAP, BUBBLE BOBBLE, BOULDER DASH,
castce - atari ST emu - 100% - STUNT CAR RACER!
scummvm/pocketscumm - 100% - monkey island, benetah a steel sky,

morphgear - all in one - gba,snes,gb gbc etc etc... - 70-100% - snes too slow, gba...forget bout it...
pocketdos - 286 pc emu - 20-100% - dune, experiments with windows 3.0 etc..
pocketsnes - snes emuls - depend on version 20-70% w/ sound, 100% w/out sound - masteralls' build is fastest one for omaps, on xscale machines n0ps' is BEST one... - EARTHBOUND, cHRONO TRIGGER
picodrive - sega genesis - 100% but ists not as compatible as GENPP by n0p' - which can lauch PAL titles as lemmings, megalomania etc...

Guys and gals, don’t forget to check out my brand new, MS-DOS / x86 emulation-related article at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884

try morhgear. not freeware, but the best one i use.
http://fms.komkon.org/MorphGear/
mprPhgear is damn slow on OMAP's.
I'm looking for some x86 emulator that works on Windows Mobile 5 or 6. I used Pocket Bochs, but it doesnt work on my Qtek9100 with WM 5 nor WM 6. Is there any way how to run it on WM5/6 or is there some other x86 emulator for WM5/6? Google didnt found anything else than Pocket Bochs.

plz NO MORE BOCHS name EVER!
there are some other versions and builds of x86 emulators...
dosboxes by n0p - ok on wizard,
n0p cvs build(only which lead me to launch fallout on ppc..13 mb RAM!, master of orion playable, even HOMM was ok, settlers in 800x600, settlers 2...and playable jack jazz rabbit ) - works ok on wizard,
n0p dosbox xscale optimised - cant remember if its ok on wizard,
dosbox 6.1 - didnt want to try,
dosbox for wm03se - i cant find it on HDD...
some older dosboxes(arent optimised),
pdosbox 1.1 - forget it..,
pdosbox 2.0 - damn fast DAMN unstable....didnt test it on wizard
pckdos(made as pdosbox 2.x, more stable than 2.0)-seems to be quite slow on wizard, best mouse control,
pocketdos(fast 286, until 386/486 plugins used, then slow like bochs, i launched fallout on that 1 too ...)....works fine on wizard...
qemm- did not test...
3/4 of speed is to set PROPER cfg options.... so if its slow... its wrong set, or you are trying to make it on improper device ...
i am on wizard now, i was earlier on 400 mhz xscale...trust me wizard is slow with pc emus, always , but dosbox cvs seems to be fastest...when we are talking about usability.
for 286 pocketdos may be best...though.
btw, do not waste time with 195 mhz..lol... start from 243-273 mhz ...
link to dosboxes by n0p..:
http://n0p.tonych.info/?Welcome
btw - theres port of WARCRAFT 2 too, and ONLY sega mega drive emulator, that is able to run EU roms(pirates, cannon fodder, lemmings, lemmings tribes, etc)...
n0p is great.

wow, respect, seems to be very interesting article!
I've installed PocketDOS 1.12.1 with FREEDOS on my X1. PocketDOS runs just fine and shows my storage card as c: - which is good.
Now I'm trying to get my favourite oldschool DOS game running, One Must Fall (OMF). Here, a problem occurs where it states that an error occured at *hex code*. aka, it doesn't run as DOS normally would. (and yes, I've tested OMF, it works fine on my PC) I've also tried x486 emulator, but OMF sais that no 486 is detected.
Has anyone gotten a DOS emulator running properly? I'd love to play this game on my X1.

Give me a hint where I can get the game and i'll test it on my PocketDOS setup.
I have no idea where I got it from, but I'm pretty sure it's shareware.
How about you share your pocketDOS setup?
Sure

Sure thing, what exactly do you want sharing?
I'll go google the game and ty it out first, no point wasting time if it doesnt work.
Ok
I just installed it and it works fine with sound off. If I enable sound i get a runtime error, but with about 10 sound card options to choose plus having to manually chose the IRQ and DMA channel it was unlikely I was going to get it right first time any way.
There is also an update for the game that was STRONGLY recommended, I'll install that now too and see if it still works.
P.S. It's currently running pretty slow.
Alright. Good to see that at least you've gotten it to work.
What version of PocketDOS are you using, any addons? I'm using 1.12.1 with FREEDOS. Also tried the x468 plugin, but that didn't work properly.
Perhaps the OMF I've got isn't any good for the PPC..

I got OMF from dosgamesarchive.com
PocketDOS v1.12.1
FREEDOS100 cab
PDOS_BOCHS_CPU.dll 486 emulation
If you put more than 1 DLL in there for the emulation it wont detect or work. Delete the DOSBOX one if you have the both then enable this one in settings.
P.S. I tried installing the update for OMF.... I didn't notice any improvement ... but it did break the "full version" and make it a demo.
my cracked version works tho i even had heroes of might and magic working on a 11mghz 486 and also windows 3.0
Aye, I got it to work now, but it's indeed slow as hell. The X1 is far more powerful than is needed for this game. I've only tried a 486 emulator, does anyone have a pentium emulator?
Would love to get this game running properly!
I also noticed one graphical issue, the screen is shifted towards the right a bit, clipping off ~60px of the image. On the left side, the missing pixels appear. You guys see that too?
i'd say skip the emulators and run native games for good performance
Just try this:
In the dosbox goto
Settings ;Display ;performance
Write mode :Choice Write-thrrough
and under
options: choice "Write directly to display memory"
perhaps this might help.
best regards
not using any plugin, increased the expanded and extended ram to above 8mb, under display write mode "write through" and "write directly to video memory"
this setting makes some of my games not as painfully slow as dosbox 4-7 fps... quite playable, just no sound

You have to have a cpu plugin to run OMF.
The tweaks aren't helping!

try the PDOS_BOCHS_CPU.dll plugin with that setting? it will probably slow it down pretty bad...
i dont get how some of the xscale 500mhz+ device runs some games at 20fps while x1 runs at 4-7fps with the exact same setting using dosbox...

Yes, that's the dll I'm using. Are there any better ones? I mean, this is 486 emulation, there must be something like a pentium emulator around.
I don't get why the X1 doesn't run it smoothly either. Though I guess it's the qualcomm cpu that isn't properly supported.
Just the thread i waited for...
I've been trying to get dosgames to run on my x1 for quiet a while but coludn't get any sattisfying results.
I used three different versions of dosbox for ppc but they were all too slow and had problems with their on screen keyboard. the wvgascreen is an other problem. but the worst thing is that development of dos-emus for winmob stopped a long time ago.
I would wet my pants if i cold get rebel assault with sound to run on my phone at a playable framerate...

i just dont think the 2d driver is properly implemented... like all the msm7xxx line qualcomm cpu
my dell axim x51 (xscale 416mhz) runs dos games fine with dosbox (20-33fps), and x1 runs at 4-7fps, and a whooping 11fps when the screen is completely blank ); with pocketdos, the dell axim is running at full speed (except when 486 cpu plugin is used), x1 is just playable with a big "?" attached to it
same goes for morphgear snes module, it is quite fast with axim x51 with mid quality sound, but lags on x1 with no sound (still playable)
Has anyone tried to run the no$gba dos version on pocket dos?
Would be very interesting if or how it works.
Not me. What exactly is that?

Well, its a gba emulator
It comes as a windows or dos version. haven't tried it myself. Maybe because i do not have pocket dos on my X1^^.
Its freeware, not like morphgear. You find it on the site linked above.

Hi
I have installed pocketDos with ms dos 6.22 and win 3.0 but want to run 3.1 or 95, 98 or xp. I have seen xp on a nokia with dosbox and tried pdosbox yesterday but it crashes my phone.
I want to run Encore 4.1 music notator on my xperia which works on win 3.1 I am unable to find a decent notator for windows mobile.
Will pDOSbox ever work on the xperia?

Hi
For the mouse support make sure you have VGA key installed then follow step 12 in your original post.
This lets you use the stylus or d pad to move the cursor although it only moves really really slowly.
