A dumb question. But I was wondering if anyone had any issue with playing flash games like the zynga ones on facebook? I only ask because when I had the evo I was able to play, but on my epic it is able to load the game up rather very slowly but once I go to interact with the game itself I get a white screen with the play button showing. But if I press play it just starts all over again.
I am on the acs dk28 froyo now and it works pretty good so far except for the online games. Still trying to test th gps but is freezing out lol.
I hope there is a way to get it to work, I know it might be trivial but it kills the boredom

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with level 5-4 of angry birds. It seems as though I have found a bug. My birds won't break anything in that level, they just bounce off the wood. It's very frustrating. Even the yellow birds that fly through wood easily just bounce off without breaking anything.
Nope, all working for me.

Its actually FPse on the market and does circles around psx4 droid .Playing fff9 full speed. Post games working full speed for reference!
Edit-
Alright this is going to be simple.
My evo-
Mikfroyo 4.4
Netarchy-toast 4.3.2
Setcpu- smart ass- overclock 1036
16gb class 4
Games tested
- Marvel vs Capcom
-FF9
-Resident evil 3
-Digimon world
FPse at its current state is not much better than early version of psx4droid v2, though it plays cutscenes great, because it struggles to emulate at full speed .
M vs C is a great example since the opening scene and player selection run full speed, but hits a wall at actual game play. In FF9 I am in Oilvert in disc three so the game play seems great . Then in RE3 THE WHOLE GAME AND EMULATOR CRASHED at the beginning cutscene of game. Digimon world started and ran great.
The controls are very well made and much more friendly to big thumbed people, the only complaint would be that you must activate through the input menu the L1L2, R1R2, select , and start buttons for landscape mode for different games.
Note also that this emulator doesn't YET stretch the image fullscreen.
Over all it will take a few updates to polish it but I am confident this developer is headed in the right direction. How this helps some one.
meh, my psp can do that
I think you just got punk'd
Edit:
Wow, great performance. I think zod just got served!
It's FPse on the market

I've been using psx4droid for a while and i really like it. This one though has some serious potential. I tried street fighter alpha 3 and the first thing i noticed is how much better it looked than on psx4droid. However, it ran much slower, im not sure if i can change any settings to fix that. I was amazed by how well it ran rival schools though. Psx4droid runs it but its really slow.
Couple things i dont like about fpse though. There doesnt seem to be haptic feedback ftom button presses. I need haptic feedback.
Also, on fpse the keys arent very forgiving. What i mean is that you need to press the button precisely or it wont register, thats kind of a problem. Psx4droid registers my input even if its a little off.
I cant get start, select and the shoulder buttons in landscape mode. Thats gotta get fixed.
All in all, this emulator has some issues, but it is a first release and has some big potential.
Keep the reviews coming. I don't want to buy it because of that 15 minute window.
I downloaded it just to try it and compare it to psx4driod 1.7 and v2 and I gotta say it still needs some work fsce (wateva the spelling is) is kool but dosen't play ff9 at full speed like psx4driod does....It has potential after a few updates and the ui needs to cleaned up menus look wak to me...just my 2 cents

Had the same issue. Download Autopopstation4 and read the readme. Trying it now.
Update: Works like a charm. Tried this with Final Fantasy V, Metal Gear Disk 1, as well as Legend of Dragoon disk 1. Go nuts...
Update2: Autopopstation does not work on multi-disk eboots. Still looking into that....
Let me start off by saying that I used to use psx4droid on some previous roms and it worked fairly. Definitely not a genuine playing experience, but it worked enough to show it off a little bit. Then when I jumped ship to MIUI it stopped working, no big deal. I just stopped using it. Then I tried this and what do you know.. works like a charm. I messed around with kernels a bit to get the wiimote working and voila.. my rig:
MIUI 1.2.11
Cm snap latest (7.5?)
HW Version 003
The first thing I tried out was Crash Bandicoot. The title and intro scenes flew by at well over 100fps so I decided to turn on the framelimiter in the options. I played the first level and a half and to my almost disbelief.. solid 56-60fps constantly. Very few drops to mid-high 40s. Sure I only played a few minutes, but I was definitely impressed.
Second game I tried was Spyro. Again, runs very smooth at a constant 56-60 during gameplay. Drops during cutscenes, but the gameplay itself is flawless. Again.. incredibly surprised.
Third game.. and this is where things get a bit rough. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. The game itself while you run and jump around runs at 45+ fps but it's definitely playable. It's not perfect 1:1 of what I checked out on youtube, but it plays. I skipped the beginning cutscene hastily, but there are some scenes generated with the games actual engine that you can't skip. This is where it all went downhill. There is an ominous voice speaking to you as you come back as the soul reaver or something along those lines.. I couldn't make it out cause the framerate kept dropping and his voice would skip. This drove me nuts. The sound emulation is generally not great on this emulator, but this game particularly was bad.
Other stuff:
For some reason, the settings don't save for me. I have to set them every single time I start a new game. Hopefully this is not a product of my setup and of the app itself.
I was able to play full screen. I saw someone post earlier that it won't stretch to the full screen, but it seemed to play perfectly across my entire screen beautifully. Just pointing that out.
This got me so excited for gaming on my evo that I actually ordered a Classic Controller Pro from amazon.. I can see myself using my evo much more once it gets to me for gaming. Very excited!
Battery drain was insane. Literally a % a minute. Although don't take this for much as I JUST flashed the kernel and usually I do see quick drain the first day or so of usage.
EDIT: My next game will be Tekken 3 only because I remember having such a hard time emulating it on a stock hd2 about a year ago and once on my own Evo. If this emulates it nicely... well... We have a winrar on our hands.
Updating with a new post otherwise no one will see this. I tried out street fighter 3 alpha and surprisingly enough, it runs like crap. It maintains around 40 fps but unless it runs at 60 it's just not smooth enough to pull off combos and all. Tekken 3 won't play at all past the first logo, the game just crashes. It came as a bin.ecm which I renamed to just a bin to get it to with which might be the problem

Ill have to try it out. Even though actiony games are a bit of a pain it would be cool to play final fantasy and legend of legaia on my phone.

When ever you get an .ecm you need to un compress with the ecm tools - just google it . Once you download them drag and drag and drop the rom into the unecm file if I remember right and it will un compress so you can play.

Worked perfectly. Unfortunately the game runs sub 40 lol

I see this sometimes in the browser, but occasionally when playing games too. I'm chalking it up to a software issue since it only seems to happen when either rendering webpages or games (never on home screens or when watching vids, or in any other apps). Just wanted to be sure, though--anyone else?
I've seen some flickering while playing Angry Birds. Haven't seen it any other time so like you I'm thinking/hoping it's not a hardware thing.
I've seem some flickering in one game only-Nano-Pandas (full version, the lite version didn't have this problem). Sometimes while using flash.
i get the flicker consistently when i scroll in the fb app
It's becasue you're all suffering from tomkingtons desease, meaning you are constantly blinking five times a second, surprised you haven't noticed it before
i have noticed it when opening the browser, was worried but home screen and video play back are okay so I also assumed it was software related

+1 But don't see it elsewhere, which makes me thing it's software...
Ah good, it's not just me then. Either something in Honeycomb or Asus' kernel, perhaps. Cool, thanks guys.
It's a known honeycomb software bug, some transformers will periodically flicker when using the stock browser or certain games.
And I thought my screen was failing... I noticed flicker AFTER the 3.1 update...

I see flicker while playing PvZ HD but not in Fruit Ninja THD.
My games play just fine for ~10 minutes, and then start freezing. They start working again after a a small amount of time, but continue freezing. It makes me think it might have something to do with overheating, but the phone itself is barely warm. Does anyone else have this issue?
It's not that big of a deal, because I don't play games frequently, I'm just thinking that when I travel, I don't want to be having this issue with only being able to play games intermittently.
I first noticed it on SlimRom, thought it might have had something to do with the smaller pixel density that rom has, so I changed the lcd density to default, and the issue continued. I installed AOKP last night, and the issue is happening with that one as well.
I didn't have the stock rom on long enough to test it, but it would be nice to know that this is a phone issue and not a rom issue.
Right now I'm trying out the rest of the roms to see if any work for games for more than 10-15 minutes, but I would really appreciate some input from anyone.
EDIT
Issue occurs with Carbon and PAC roms as well.

not sure, but it could be a memory (RAM) issue. does the freezing happen with other apps, or just certain games?
I have not seen it happen in anything except games, but it only happens when I have the game open for 10+ minutes. I don't think I have ever had a single app open that long, but it doesn't seem to be a RAM issue to me. Once the freezing starts happening, it freezes a couple times a minute, and other apps work just fine, even with the game still running in the background. If I set it down, it won't freeze again for another few minutes, which is why it seems like GPU overheating to me. Once it gets hot, it freezes really frequently, then when given the chance to cool down it doesn't freeze again unless its been running a game for longer.
I just got it to freeze, hit the task killer button(said 380MB free) and went back into the game, and it froze again within 30 seconds.
I downloaded a CPU temp app, and the CPU is ~35C, and doesn't get much higher when the game starts freezing. Are there any apps that show GPU temp? I can't seem to find anything.

get a logcat and send it to the Dev of whatever ROM you're on.
I did, I ended up sending it to the SlimRoms crew, because Slim has been my go-to rom.
In other news, I used the Utility on the Dev page to flash back to stock 4.1.2, and have been playing a game for around 20 minutes with no issues, it seems like stock works fine. Good to know I dont have a malfunctioning device.
I'm gunna try some of the 4.1.2 roms and if they don't have the issue, I may just stick with one of those.
Thanks for your help.
I had the same problem! I'm running Carbon and I had the same problems with games. I recently flashed the latest version of carbon and it seems to not have the issue any more though

Interesting.. That would definitely be worth a try.
Right now I'm back to a 4.1.2 rom and games are running flawlessly. I miss all the nice features of 4.2 though, and having Pie and Halo would be amazing.
Thanks for the tip, which Carbon build are you on? I'm looking at the list and I see one built on 7/10 so I'll give that a go.

Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, Gameboid, Zenonia, basically 2D games. It has happened with every game I play for more than 10ish minutes, but I haven't tried anything like dead trigger. I'll give it a go with Carbon and see what happens.

I tried it without Force GPU and the same thing happened.
I played Dead Trigger for a while without any problems. Seems like its only 2D games, but those are mostly the only ones I play.
