At last: PocketSNES for HTC Universal!

You guys must have been aching for a working SNES emulator for your Universal; you've got it now!
Two days ago I received this updated version of PocketSNES from a generous guy who wishes to remain anonymous. It is based on the SNES9x ver. 1.39.
I ran Super Mario World and Yoshi's Island on the emulator. Both ROMs ran smoothly without sound on, and I mapped the controller buttons with the keyboard. So now my Universal is a bit like the Nintendo DS, except it only has one screen and only runs smoothly without sound on.
Have a go anyway - simply unzip the downloaded file, copy both the .exe file and .dll file to a folder on your device and then run it.
Unfortunately this program has been optimised for use on the HTC Universal only, so I'm afraid that owners of other WM5 devices may not be able to use this.
BTW the boring stuff: you should know that you can only download the ROMs provided that you have bought a copy of the game. You will have to search for the download sites yourself I'm afraid!

Tried but it couldn't run.
It raised the error: "The file cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found...."

Will give it a shot. Thanks for sharing!

That could be to do with your ROM. Which version is it? You might have to app-unlock your ROM in that case.

I get the same error, tried running from phone memory, and storage card. I am running Mr Clean Rom
Thanks

same error. Certificate problem. Have latest jasjar ROM from Imate.
PLs solve it, you made me curious and I still have hundreds of SNES files, wating to be played with.
Huib

Got the same error
Have a XDA Exec with latest rom.

Dear all,
Sorry about that: my bad. I forgot to include an essential .dll file.
Download the new zipped file, extract it and copy both file to a folder on your device and it should work.

Yep it's working now.
Tried donkey kong country and mario allstars, both working excellent with sound on. You just need to get used with the controls (buttons).
Thanks man.

May I ask what sound setting are you on? Is the game running at a good frame rate?

At the moment i'm running arkanoid at a frame rate of 30. The other games i tried are between 25-35 fps.
Activated sound options are:
V Sound Emulation
V Sync Sound
V Stereo
V Interpolate Source
V Alt Sound Decoder
V Envelope Height Rea....der
V Fix Frequency
Quality is 16 bit.
Rate is medium.

wow works great. 25fps. I would like my dos-emulator to do that.
The only thing is that the keys aren't working like on a joypad or my computer. Let me explain.
on my qtek 9000 you press the right-arrow key an hold it for walking right. If you meanwhile click another button the system forgets that you've holding the right-arrow key. Threrfore its almost impossible to play jump'n'run games.
Does anyone have a solution for this kind of problem?

I'm having that problem too. Disabling the sound helps a bit but I don't know if there is a solution for this. I'll ask the guy who wrote this program.

The Keyborad driver for qtek9000/Universal doesn't allow multiple key press.
You can use other hard keys though including camera, voice, backligh, Video, Contacts etc

is there a way to replace these drivers? does alternative drivers exist? does anybody knows a solution?
This cant't be the end I've tried "super street fighter 2" it works fluently and flawlessly except the fact that you can't jump forward or backward, not talking about the special moves, just because of the keyboard!

It is possible to write an alternate driver for the keyboard. I'm not voluntering though (not at the moment at least)

Thank mate! This is awesome.

its beatifull
i tried it with supermario world and final fantasy 2..

Are you using it on a Universal device? It is probably the game because I have sound problems with one of my games too.

warcarft 2:cursor calibration ?

hi!
i need some help on warcarft 2 for my diamond. when i'm within the game, and i click somewhere, the cursor (the hand ) always seems to be about 50 pixels right to the actual position of the screen where i clicked in.
is there a possibility to "calibrate" the cursor? otherwise the game isn't playable 'cause i can't click the action icons (move, fight...).
thanks for your help a lot.

YEs i do have the same problem. It loads quite fast and looks great but its unplayable with this inacuraccy!!!

If you read the post about theese games it will say that you need to set the resolution ingame to 640*480 and check the fullscreen button. try that

thanks. that's it. must have missed that post. i'm sorry.

I tried the game, looked great, but i could not find how to "right" - click...
could one of you enlighten me?
thanks

Search the forums, there's a huge thread with a list of games like WC2, Doom, etc all with links :]
But yeah, WC2 isn't a brilliant port, though it is playable, make sure you disable TF3D if you're into serious gaming with it (35+ units) otherwise you'll get C2D

VsNotepad - Virtual Spaghetti

Anyone managed to get VsNotepad 2.5 to work properly on Touch HD?
http://www.virtualspaghetti.com/index.php?index=30&language=en
When I run the demo on my TouchHD the stylus position and what I draw are not aligned? (Approx 1/4 of the screen width and height out)
Software does say its 480x800 compatible, even mentions the Touch HD. (I've run the setup and put the settings to forced, but I still get the aligment issue.) Reported it to the creators, but wondered if Im alone in this issue?

No, you are not alone. I have the exact same problem, even though their website says it works in WVGA mode, it doesn't. I've sent them two emails in the past week and so far, no response. Makes me wonder why I bother paying for software...

Not heard anything from VS yet... I keep checking the website...
I found this App so useful on my Kaiser, really missing it now on my THD

There is an updated Version now! I installed it and it works now. Problem for me, it looks so blury. Is this normal?

Where did you download it from? I can see it has been updated to 2.51, but when downloaded it appears as version 2.5 with the same symptom on my device!
I will check whether there are traces from previous install in the registry.

I have downloaded the 'official' version from their website and it does not work. It appears to be the exact same file I already have (it's the same size). It appears that they may not have updated their web links or have linked the file incorrectly. I have sent them an email.

they linked it wrongly.

That's the one! Thanks

Happy it works now....however, I want a WVGA version now!!!!
One step at a time I guess!!

Has someone else noticed a dramaticly system slowdown after starting VsNotepad? Ending the program doesn´t solve the problem, only softreset does. You can notice the slowdown in TF3D or better in coreplay, which even stopps working.
If you have the same problem, is there a really gote alternative for VsNotepad?

Just to notice:
Softreset isn´t demanded if you close the app. in the app and not via taskmanager. That way I can live with the slowdown when the app is running.

Pocket Islam on Touch HD

Does anyone know whether Pocket Islam is fully compatible with the Touch HD?
Thanks

tried it a couple of weeks ago.
It all installs and works ok but I found it killed my phones battery overnight! I was well surprised how quickly my phones battery died from full.
I wanted it for the hadiths but as they are in arabic only I just uninstalled it

I've got it installed on my phone and it works well.
My battery life is almost 2 days (with push email, 4-5 call/day, internet browsing)
The app works well enough.
I just use it for the Quran and getting prayer times occasionally (no reminders set)

how do you change pages on quran in pocket islam ? i am used to dpad on my p3600 ?

try this bro http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466002
if it works please let us know, thanks.

Pocket Islam
Hi Guys
Yes I too confirm that Pocket Islam (v7) works great for me with no battery issues.
I have been using this application for the past 2 years and must admit its fantastic.
I thought that version 8 (WM Touch Phone) had been released as per PocketGear, but I cannot find it anywhere. I tried to email the developers last week but my email got bounced back. Does anyone know anything about this?
Thank you
KaidM

Use the red up and down arrows on the bottom toolbar to go to the next and previous pages.
The left and right green arrows take you to the previous and next surahs.
Not quite as easy as the dpad but hey it works !

I'm a Christian Pastor so I'm afraid I don't know the Quran that well but if you would be willing to outline exactly what you are looking for and how and what the rules are I would be happy to try and write something for you to meet your needs. I'm serious and trying to be absolutely respectful. I will help if you will allow me and fill in the blanks. PM me if interested.

problem with .v8?
Hi,
Has anyone had problems with v8?
I installed and now my top and bottom bars have changed colour to a light grey and when i receive a message, it dos not display the number symbol. I hear the notification but no visual notification.
Any Ideas anyone?

battery depletion
I use pocket islam now for several years. Great program. I recently decided to activate the ezan. Until now I sileced it because sometimes it was not appropiate in a non muslim environment. I changed the ezan to somethinng more natural.
But now my batteries get depleted very fast. I sileced the ezan and the depletion problem was gone.
So it is a great program if you silence the ezan. Maybe on the next update the programmers will solve this problem.

If anyone is interested in only prayer times then there is a good app from islamicfinder. Its a java program and is fully customizable for different schools and calculation methods and many cities around the world. It works well with the Touch HD and doesn't drain any battery.
Its available here... http://www.islamicfinder.org/mobile/index.php

hadith software
does anyone know some hadith software? like amadsoft hadth that compatible with hd? or even another software which have more books of hadith?

Some word in recitation is missing.
Just want to ask if anybody also have same problem with me. When the program recite the quran, some words in certain surah is not recited wholelly. for example, when it recite surah al-ikhlas, the last word in the surah not be recited and stop before it. Do somebody have any solutions?

Problem with Destinator 9 and "Symbols"

Hi all,
I'm really hoping someone can help me with this. I've just gotten Destinator 9 and am having a problem that I'll describe. I've tried 3 or 4 of NRG's ROMs with the same result on all of them but have not tried with the default AT&T ROM.
Destinator installs correctly however, every 3 seconds a "Symbols" screen (see screen shots attached) appears that covers up nearly the entire screen which makes a GPS app kind of hard to use.
Ideally, I'd like a permanent fix, but I'd also be willing to try renaming or deleting whatever executable is running that is displaying the "Symbols" screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Just to close the loop on this I'd sent the Destinator support folks a note about the issue and they've provided me with a fix that solves the problem. Apparently the fix is supposed to be integrated into a new release that should be up on their store later this week or next week.

dou you have the fix file? I have the same issue.. Tnks

I have this issue too.
Please upload the fix.

Same here.Any help?

New Rom show the problem
Sorry for my english.
I have HTC HD2 and after update rom from 1.48 to 1.61 appear symbol.
Any solucion?

I have the same issue in HTC Diamond 2 (topaz) WM6.5
Please upload the fix.

Why do not you contact the Destinator*9 Customer Service?
It is not always something wrong with the Rhodium this problem probably with app itself

Yeah, this thing hapends to me too. Even when I close the app. Hope you can share the fix. Thanks.

For all those asking for me to post the fix, I'm not going to do so. If you've got a legit copy of Destinator and are hitting this problem, then contact Destinator support and they will hook you up. If you don't have a legit copy, well then I can't help you out.

To let people know that a fix is available from the vendor.

I propose to disregard pkadare problems and comments. Saying that there is a fix available with the vendor instead of posting it, is not very helpful. Someday you will need a file or help, hope you dont get it.

so, change other roms, or change GPS software
