No...not yet, i am in the same boat as you, non of my Emulators are working for the 2.3.2 update. but there is an alternitive to a 'Psx' Emu for the android 2.3.2(gingerbread) that every body is hyping about. it is called FPSE for android. it was just release, they say it is compatible with 2.2+ and the fps is much MUCH faster then psx4droid. it is around $5 ,you are able to find it within the android market.
i am thinking on getting it but i am still bum'd that i paid for psx4droid, and now i gotta pay for another psx emu just to keep up with the ROM updates :/

That's just the way it goes these days. As soon as you pick your device up from the store shelf, it's outdated before you get out the door... Especially with phones becoming more and more like computers...

i have used fpse for winmo hope it is better on android was not impressed with it on wimo
FPse does not work
Neither PS1 emulators work with gingerbread. they both ask you to load a game, then when you do the program crashes out. Very sad but hopeful and update to PSXdroid comes out(one the includes a joystick)*hint hint*

Maybe if you checked the original post date, you could see why it's not working on cm7 rc4 . Hopefully by now they've updated and it works fine, because I know rc4 wasn't out in feburary.
Not to be hating, but I just find things like that amusing
yay your headup makes my day
just downloaded FPse and works gr8 with crash bandicot warped. Emulation is a bit slow, but still decent. About your 5$ issue feel free to stick on aptoide, got a few releases on baazar for free.
Thx for the info on this emu, works great on galaxy ace ginger xxkpe
works fine on all roms i use,even fpse or n64oid never had a problem here
From what I know, the Shift is the Sprint Version of the HTC Merge(or the other way around). And, since there is no Merge forum I could find, I came here. Is it possible to oc the device to 1ghz? Or, is it like the G2, where 800mhz is enough? Also, does it happen to have 512 mb of ram and a ffc? If so, Im dumping my droid 2 for the merge(unlocked bootloader ftw!)
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA Premium App
you can overclock to 1.51 ghz with it rooted and it is very smooth and very fast i can say i had many applications in back ground and still managed to go on the web and it was very quick still and play games with no problem very smooth.
The shift can be oc to 1.8 my friend and the g2 can do 2.1
No ffc tho sorry
He's asking about the Merge, guys. It SHOULD be very similar to the Shift, but nobody knows for absolute certain until they can get their hands on it. For the record, the 800 Mhz processor did everything i asked of it and then some at stock speed, I only overclock it because I can

^ This is correct info. The shift is quite speedy without the overclocking. Most of us just do it because of battery life with the different kernels, and because our geek friends wil think it's cool.

Anyone got their hands on an HTC Merge yet? Mines definitely great at 800 MHz, and there is nothing i have come across where i felt more clock speed would've been better, and that too on stock rom. This includes some of the heaviest games graphics-wise available on the market. But since its still not officially out, Im still running it on stock as I have no idea how to root it and load custom recovery. As soon as we get custom recovery on this it is a given the performance will increase a lot with custom roms.

Hey guys, I bought a G1 on EBay for 78 bucks ( pretty cheap considering the device has regular wear and tear) and wanted to dominate the thing with awesome mods etc. Anyone know a nice stable and fast froyo build? If there is one with Sense I will take that as well and as a side note... is multi touch enabled on these roms? Multi touch like the Nexus S has?
Sent from my Xoom
If you want froyo, you should try out froyo by lazlo, if you want gingerbread, try cos-ds gingerbread
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
Multitouch enabled on most custom roms, from 1.6 to current.
do also check on how to upgrade the spl and radio of the phone if it has not been upgraded, as this would give you extra 14mb of ram which is very precious for the g1. Links are at my sig
welcome to the g1 community and have fun flashing!
So what use is the radio for? Just some extra ram? Anyone got a link for a stable froyo or gingerbread build? Which ever is most stable I will take, if there is a version with Sense then I will take that. Also what's with this 32a and 32b stuff? Are there specific versions of roms? Cause that would kind of suck lol.
Sent from my Xoom
yes, with it you'll get around 110 of ram, which considered as a lot for g1, froyo, go for froyo by laszlo or froyofortrout or ezterry's official aosp ota.
GB, try cosds or ads. laszlo's and the GB links are at my signature. open up the web version of the forum if you cant see them from the xda/tapatalk app. happy flashing!

Uh here I have a video by Phonedog:

Skip a little when he starts talking about Instant Messaging etc. I thought it looked pretty cool and a bit better than Trillian such. I tried it on my Nexus S, and it kept crashing. Is there a way to keep that app? Also I am planning on overclocking the device does it improve performance? I just want a ROM that isn't going to bog down the experience, I don't use live wallpapers and the most I want to play is Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja, can it run that if it's all stock?

the app might not be compatible with gingerbread, plus the original g1 received only up to 1.6 as the official update, but you can always try later on with your preferred custom rom. OC does improve, but personally, im not using it, the default is good enough for me, your needs might be diffrent.
angry bird is playable with this script, but it is not that smooth, but still playable . have not tried ninja, most of the 2d games work well so far. for good gaming experience, your nexus s would be much2 more better lol
hope it helps

Hmmm, would overclocling make the gaming experience any better? I mean I know that emulators work well because they were made on the G1, saw videos of people using it on a G1 as well. I am not going to have my Nexus S for a good week or two for repairs, so I need a device to substitute it.

the limitation here is the ram and also the gpu in g1, it uses adreno 130, which is very old, phones with slightly higher gpu, adreno 200 have much2 better performance eventhough they are only one model newer.

I might just suggest using gingerbread in particular 'ginger yoshi'. I recently also purchased a G1/Dream off ebay and decided to mod it and just tonight loaded ginger yoshi 7.1.1 onto it (android 2.3.3) and it is working flawlessly, before gingerbread i was running froyo (cyanogenmod 6.1.0 magpie) but yoshi's build is so much more snappier.

So I was wandering through the app Market and I ran across both Google Earth and Flash 10.3. Out of curiosity I clicked on them and found I could install them both. After installation, I could find them no more. And when I try to use them they force close. (Expected) Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Flash is incompatible with armv6 devices like the Aria. As for google earth idk.

Yea there was an update for google books as well but everytime I clicked on it all I got was "requested item could not be found". So I left it alone and when I came back to my phone later on and unlocked it, in the notification bar it said "successfully updated google books". I was like WTF! I've noticed the market acting up a bit last few days.

I knew flash was incompatible, but Google Earth needs a 1ghz processor and a HDPI screen. I was just wondering what would happen if I installed them.

Even if it doesn't run at its full potential, Google Earth definitely will run on phones with sub-1GHz processors (including the Motorola Droid which has a 550MHz processor). Also Google Earth's help page says it requires 320x480 minimum resolution, which is what the Aria has. So neither of those reasons are preventing you from running it on the Aria.
The actual reason it doesn't work is because Google Earth requires ARMv7, just like Flash.
I thought it was just me. The market has been completely out of sorts for me since yesterday.

mmmk makes sense as to why it requires arm7. as for market itself i just get the occasional "connection issue hit retry to continue" error. and I'd have to hit it twice but that's how its always been with my aria even when was stock.
I can get Google Earth to appear by searching for "honeycomb" and it's the 5th or so result. Just, FYI.

Hi all,
I am perfectly happy with my nexus 4, but my friend is giving me his old xperia play which I am going to use as a gaming device.
I see there are several roms out there based on gb and ics and some even jb.
What is suggested to optimize xperia play for gaming only? gb, ics or jb?
I will be deleting any app that isn't neccessary to keep things nice and clean.
Was thinking about a swap partition on my sdhc card as well.
Haven't got the device yet but I am collecting firmwares, kernels and whatnot to have ready for when I receive it.
Let me know what you think?:good:

Great friend you have there =).
I am sure that someone more technical could fill you in on details on GB, ICS and JB stuff. I haven´t been following that at all.
Personally, I only use my XPlay only as an emulator gaming device. And I use ExtremeKernel combined with EliteGamer 2.0 000p (no camera).
I have around 300-310 MB´s of free RAM. And emulators for NES, SNES, GBA, Genesis and PSX runs perfectly fine. It´s amazing to relieve my old games that are stashed away in my wardrobe.
I haven´t even gotten to overclock the unit. I prefer my unit to live as long as possible.
The XPlay IS aged hardware. But the price and its very smooth design makes it easy just to pick it up and play.

I'm currently building a pure performance ROM which is my custom build of AtomicGB.
For gaming I'd stick with Gin2KK, Elite and/or the Rom I'm just making.

That's the amount of RAM my ROM had earlier in development.
Now it's a bit less due to JIT tweaks but has faster app execution.

Well it was kind of a demo model in a store he works at, and they were selling phones and tablets at a really low price. But there are only 5 or so of each model.

He was asking for differences in the main hardware asking "Is this the Xperia Play 2?" sort of question, I don't think mentioning the radio comes into play on this part since he only wants to use the device for gaming.
