Has anyone got an amiga emulator actually working?

I would like to get the older championship manager on my m5000 but struggling to get the emulator to work.
Any help?
thanks

Have you tried this?
I've never had a go, but would love a bit of North and South:
http://pocketinsanity.sourceforge.net/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,37/func,select/id,4/
Off topic - anyone ever thought: the commodore 64 could do simple text to speech. The BBC had it built in. SpyHunter on the BBC had sampled speech. And yet, notice how hard it is to get simple text to speech on a 500mhz phone? Flite is fat and still sounds like stephen hawkings after installing the Extended Rom dialer. Stoopid.

Pocket Insanity works but isn't perfect, the developer is actively working on making a better version or HTC Universal owners though.
Im able to play Dungeon Master on it though.
Cheers

tried insanity but got very confused when it was asking for kickstart files etc.
then thought i would try pocketdos with an old pc version of championship manager but when launching cm it errors on needing vga. even if i am in vga mode.
any more help on the insanity program?
thanks

Kickstarts are the equivalent of OS Roms on Windows Mobile. You'll have to warez around for them, they're probably still copyright, but I'm sure if you check his forum somebody will have them hanging around.
Also check out abandonware sites. They occasionaly have them.

Dear timb551,
Here i uploaded the needed rom files and workbenchs for Amiga Emulator POCKETUAE... Amiga was a great machine and still the market owes lots of technology to Jay Miner " father of Amiga" or his Amiga... I am one of the lucky man who bought the first 50 Amiga 500 in Turkey...R.I.P. AMIGA... I will never forget the days i lived with you or your technology...

Fully agree with the Protochip - people who never used the Amiga can never fully appreciate it....it was already multitasking stuff in 1987 or so when the PC (and others) were simplistic text boxes.
How I wish someone resurrected the Amiga - properly.

Yeah, completey OT, but they've screwed up the new Amiga more then if they'd let the original die and be nicely remembered.
But I have to say, I think I had more fun on the Amiga then on any other system. I think I spent YEARS making the ultimate WorkBench disk, even throwing in the occasional rolling on the floor fit while PowerPacker unpacked my executables.
I remember laughing when I thought about mouse drivers on the PC being bigger then my whole Workbench disk... we've only gone up a factor of a thousand or so now to boot our OS
I still dearly love my A500. A600 was for girls, A1200 was a bad ass machine. I even still have an A1000. There's a name I haven't heard in a loong time... How cool was that - booting Dragon's Lair WITHOUT a kickstart to make maximum use of system memory. That's some hairy hacking... Happy days.
But yeah >wiping tear from eye< has anyone got a good Amiga emulator working? I'd love to have a blast on Defender of the Crown... (I highly recommend Slay on the PocketPC if you want a similar game)

I've been trying to get pocketuae working on my vario, no luck so far I've got a few adf files and most of the roms but still cant get past the intial blank screen. Fingers crossed I can get it working I cant wait to play sensible soccer again!

syndicate 8) wars was what had me playing till the ealy hours of the morning and missing school! damn them where good ollll days,

Amiga Rules / OT
Oh man !!!
i agree with VJ amiga times where the best times on computing for me ...
From the great speedball2 to create scrols on devpac ..... to the Deluxepaint .....
And then my best machine ever A3000T with opalvision............
oh oh oh
ok let me go back to today and use this dam PC !!!!

I am setting myself up for some serious flaming here, and it is not intentional, my mates all had amiga 500s, but there was a small group of us who had a far superior machine - the Atari ST! Mine is still going - I love it to bits! Hehe would also love to see a decent amiga emulator for PPC, they were the days indeed!

all i can say is SPEEDBALL2 . Does anyone remeber some french game(well i think it was anyway, but it was in english) were you start out in a prison cell and have to escape??. been looking for it for years.

I'm not sure but I think you mean either 'Kult' or 'Ween', both french and both very weird. OR you could mean 'Captive' which was sort of Dungeon Master like. If you are looking for a specific game, try googling for Godflesh FTP.

Flashback, by Delphine software?
It was launched in 1993 and was a side-scrolling platform - http://ramal.free.fr/fb_en.htm
Maybe the cover art will remind you, found it on eBay at http://tinyurl.com/rzuto

This is a native WinCE port of the Flashback engine (ie better then an emulator). I used to play it on my spv phone.

What are you plans for your G1 in the future?

What do you intend to do with your G1 after a year or two or after your contract has expired? I plan on keeping mine, and using as a just-for-fun device, or I might give it to my kids in 10 years as an antique phone that they can complain about having to use while all the other kids are using virtual headsets. I'm just curious haha

I'll probably keep using it until some freaking beast phone comes out.

Hang onto it. Backup phones can come in handy, for obvious reasons. Also, if my next handset is very securely locked out of root, I might want to have my Dream on hand for platform hacking.

I'll use mine for dyno, tuning my ecu through the phone, and controling my tv, lights, garage door, girlfriend, all through my phone.. Dreaming of course, but hey, it's called a "dream" right?

The only way I'll give up my G1 is if there is another Android phone that is super sweet looking with a hard keyboard too. Then, and only then, will I consider giving up the G1.
Oh, and no Samsung or Nokia or any other brand. Only HTC.

I've already found myself trying to keep my phone in its best physical condition so much that I am starting to not enjoy using the phone, bit of OCD on my side. Anyway, I installed a ShieldSkin around a month ago, and today I dropped my phone, and it happened to land on a pebble right on the edge of the phone in the small tiny area where the shield skin happened to not cover... so much for my 9 dollar investment, and now I got a dent in my phone that I keep staring at every single time I pick up the phone.

I'll sell mine and get some other Android phone.
Or maybe not
Currently I use Haykuro's 5.0G and I can't be happier with my device. Well, I could, if all the apps were working correctly

I will never give my G1 up as soon as HTC release another Android phone with more hardware change than and hard keyboard I will get it. But I'll keep my G1 as the first Android Phone ever!!!.
And right now I'm using Hakuro 5.1H and it's amazing stable everything works great I have fall in love with my phone more deeply.
Ps. My wife just red this post I left and she said OMG HOW [email protected]

i plan on getting a new phone before my two year expires, never had a phone that lasted more than a year so we'll see. every month it seems a new better phone comes out and unless they get rid of every phone with a hardware keyboard there is always an upgrade for me to buy.

im currently back in love with the g1 because of haykuros 5.0.1 rom
this is what keeps me on this phone right now
im hoping that by the time the huwaei phone comes out or the htc magic for the us comes out ill grab one of those just to check it out and if i dont like it ill still to the g1 until a better android phone comes out. the g1 is best of both worlds really. its got a hard keyboard and now it has a soft keyboard. people look at asthetics of a phone waaay to much now. its all about thin and sexy instead of comfortable and powerful. compared to the iphone i think the browser is the only good thing about the iphone now. eventually thatll have google as the reigning king. i think android has pretty much raped the iphone software wise and soon enough itll rape is style wise. the iphone style will never change and as u can see the android style will always be different. so even if were all using android each of our phones will be unique in maybe 3 or 4 years.
fingers are tired lol

Keeping it for sure unless another Android phone comes out with an actual keyboard.

this phone will be a collectors item lol, just wait and see
the first phone started by the open handset alliance? let alone ive got a white one and a black one, i just need a bronze one now, i have a couple very minor scratches on the bottom of my phone, ill have tmobile replace it just before i put it up and get a new phone, im liking the android phone that is slim like the iphone that i saw floating around online that should come out at the end of this year, that will probably replace my g1, but im definately keeping it, im also keeping copies of all the jf builds and the magic port builds as well, and every app that gets removed from the market im trying to get my hands on the apk for it lol, who knows right? ive seen old ass nokia phones holding there resale value because of there uniqueness, hopefully the g1 will too
with the ability ive seen in the devs and the porting of roms, i dont think this phone will become outdated as fast as my other phones have in the passed, in short, i think the hardware will become outdated MUCH sooner than the software

The HTC EVO 4g is....

F###ING AMAZING. Despite the problems i'm not leaving this phone, I love it.
It seems like every post is about something wrong, lets get a thread going on how much you love your evo!

Well... every other post is about Evo 4g love affair, so lets not

my only gripe is no voice & data at the sametime, other than that i am enjoying the EVO (atleast within my 30 day window haha). i am recently enjoying the linking of contacts to social networks and other items as well linking Qik to facebook to provide links to videos i posted without having to do it manually.
very cool phone, walk around in the airport listening to music, get the ok from pilot for electronics, switch to a movie, read the usatoday, send my wife a msg on gtalk, flip back to movie, etc etc etc

I love my EVO too which is why I am so sad that HTC put a cap on the graphics and I may have to return it...

+1 for this topic! I love mine as well. Amazing phone despite the negative reports (which I only experience a few of personally).

Good thread. I love my EVO too. The problems worry me but I still prefer it to the iPhone 3GS I just left, and to the iPhone 4 that is coming out. So far I haven't noticed touch screen issues or screen seperation. But this phone is still awesome. I would replace it though if there was a 4.3"-5" nexus one though

I am coming from a mogul, so things are night and day.
I am very happy with the evo...
yes I have seen wifi slowdown: max 5000kbps down, 1000 up with a only the dot as an indication; Performance degrades significantly if hand is placed over the kickstand area. Battery life is as expected for heavy use (12hrs, blue tooth & 3g data all day, 20% screen brightness). I see the screen lifting ever so slightly and can barely see light creeping though at night, but I got a seidio case which seems to keep everything snug, if it gets worse I'll do the black silicone trick. Barring the fact that I haven't found a file encryption package, or a way to easily back everything up (as i could with sprite backup on wm)......that is ...yet.
I love this thing and use it all day. The speech to text is awesome (I laught to think that I was worried about a keyboard!)
the wifee got one too. she is happy as she has never had a smartphone or anything that could do email/internet. I showed her the problem with the display(slight lifting & setting on a table-top slider), and she gave me a dumb look and said "so, whats the problem? " .... I left it at that.
you will never have a perfect production run, there will always be software bugs, lets home that HTC will improve their processes, make current customers happy (returns & repair and or replacements), and will get together with sprint for an action plan including the release with fixes to the current problems with a easy to root, android 2.2 update.
qu1nn

It's the way people have been conditioned lately...for instance...when was the last time you heard of a happy marriage? but I bet you heard of a **** ton of divorces and unhappy marriages...no one goes out singing high praises anymore, it's always complaints and *****ing.
On a brighter note, yes, the phone has it's problems...it wouldn't be a consumer grade electronic device if it didn't. I personally LOVE it.

No issues here. Coming from an AT&T Tilt, so consider my world rocked at the moment.

You and me both, and I was running android on it, so even with the fps cap, the EVO is faster I can't think of another phone I would rather have right now despite the issues. Have had zero hardware issues and can fairly easily get 20+ hours of battery life with moderate usage. Quite happy...

In all seriousness, I don't know that I have turned on my laptop more than once or twice since I got my EVO, I think that it hits the perfect balance of screen size and pocketability for light internet surfing/email/blog reading/Facebook/etc. such that it makes a full sized computer almost irrelevant. Just MHO.

Yeah... i'm loving my evo! rooted and unlocked nand!

Yeah once the Evo gets working bluetooth keyboard support the netbook manufacturers are gonna be running for the hills!

MicroSD 64Gbyte

Since a lot of people think the DHD is going to get old and move to phones like the HOX, I just want to tell you that the new microSD cards with a capacity of 64Gbyte work on this great device! The HOX doesn't even have half of this capacity.
And...ICS is coming too! We still have some great devs here.
There is no need to buy a new phone.
If I haven't already bought the HOX, I would stay with my beloved DHD
Post 8 is card name and pic!
If this was helpful, please push THANKS.

Yea I'm too staying with my HTC Desire HD , but have you tried the 64gb card in your HTC Desire HD?

Confirmed!! Works beautifully. Anyone who says otherwise is dead wrong.

IT DEFINITELY WORKS with 64gb.
Those saying it doesn't work didn't try it.
I'm using it right now ))

Does it have to be a specific 64 gb sd card or any will do?

I think any card is good...as far as is not a cheap clone and is an SDXC it will work (once formatted)

I too am happy to stick with my Desire HD. :good:

...or we could get another next gen phone THAT ALSO SUPPORTS MicroSD... ie SGS3... ^_~ ...not got one btw... but just stating an obvious logical answer besides sticking with our faithful DHDs
imho its a bad move for HTC to remove SDcard support... capacity for external storage for those type of media will only get bigger...
...opportunity to have 64GB (or more) on your smartphone just can't be easily dismissed. Especially if you carry around a ton of multimedia files as well as a chunk of your work and have a ton of pictures and a good part of your music collection! >_< lol!
ie my 1 and a half hour work commutes would be almost unbearable without my DHD with its 32GB card chock full of goodies to keep me from going insane in crappy uk public transport... @[email protected]

Yeah.
Personally, as far as function is concerned, there is little logical use in changing phones for me. I do in fact have a few more months before my contract expires and I'd like to eventually choose a very new phone that I can also support on my site without being a few months behind everyone else.
Having said that, unless another model has superior battery power consumption/time then I don't have a need for a different device. Like you, I commute throughout the day and therefore need the power to last me through the day, so I tend to limit YouTube, GPS or other things which happily eat away at the battery.
The idea of having loads stored on my device on a large SD Card is fine, but based on the above, I wouldn't use much of it.
The idea of losing the phone with so many eggs in one basket is not very appealing.
The idea of a bigger screen though like the Galaxy Note (which my barber has and showed me) is nice. I'd also consider future devices with removable rear covers, so that it's easy for companies like Mugen to make extended batteries for them. From experience that's real peace of mind.
The Microsoft Surface Tablet looks like a nice device which I could use for work maybe. If that became a primary toy, then maybe a phone would take a less important back seat for a while.

DHD + latest Lord's ICS build (8.2 as I type this) with radio 26.13.04.19 has a great battery life even with all the hammering it takes from using DicePlayer, PowerAmp, exchange Email, Dolphin, XDA Premium and even games like temple run & zenonia 4...
With the above usage... I get the trip to work, actual work usage (i have my desk phone on divert to my mobile) and the trip home... all in one nights charge... so I only need to put it on charge before I go to bed.
Hell, I've even forgot to charge it overnight and I was still able to crawl through most of the day... with charging it late afternoon, ready for the 2nd half of the movie I was watching on my trip to work! >_< hahaha!

I hear you there dude... I had my 1st DHD nicked through a burglary... =(
However, all I ever lost was my 1st 32GB class10 MicroSD as well as my nandroids...
All my files, movies, music and photos exists on multiple devices... so anything that was on my DHD is a copy from my other machines...
...pity I didn't do the same with my Nandroid... I keep them locally for the purpose of error recovery... would've kept copies of it off the device had I wanted to be safeguarded from potential theft... =_=
As it's looking now.. unless HTC starts building new units with SD support, I'll not be jumping on their new range quite just yet...
If November 2012 hits and they've not released a device that fits the bill for me... its looking a lot like I'll be going for SGS3... =_=

I’m still using 3 of mines up until I find a good replacement; I’m stuck on the open hardware and design. I really wish that I was good enough to upgrade the internals myself to something better. I’m waiting for D-two to finish up the bootloader so that I can do some full installs of either a light android OS or a Linux gaming/emulator OS.

Great mate!
Looking forward to get it fully working

Not using it daily anymore...but I still love the design.
Comparing it with the S3 I have now...day and night!
A shame the internet/browser is stone age compared to the newer android phones. Love the keyboard.
Had mine upgraded to 128 mb ram to get iGO8 running fluidly on it...have a lot of good memory's with it while using it while traveling trough the States with it! I will never sell it!
Just now I struggle to get the wifi connection connected...

I've just brought two of ebay I miss my exec! Plus one came with free porn!
I just wish there was a php/script editor for windows mobile...

I use mine daily. I have it running Windows Mobile 6.1 with the HTC Diamond interface. Mostly it sits on my nightstand as an alarm clock/radio... but in June it went with me on a trip to Japan... and in early December it went with me on a business trip to New Mexico for a week. I put a TMobile SIM in it, and I left my laptop at home and relied solely on the Universal. It did great! It plays movies, sends emails, takes calls, surfs the web... and it looks so unique I constantly get asked "what IS that?" .
I wish some manufacturer would bring back the clamshell design, I think the Universal is the perfect form factor... the keyboard is awesome.

killed mine lately- but are trying to have a new 128

It looks like my use/time is over...
It's a sad day for me. My other hobbies, projects, and life have all changed leaving my Universals and related projects behind. I'm selling my last 4 Universals together on Ebay and my 3 Blue Angels. I had just gotten the one I always wanted too, the all black O2 Exec with blue buttons. :crying:.
It's been some fun years, I hope to see everyone if they ever make a HTC Universal 2, it's not looking likely though.

A few weeks ago, I popped a SIM back into it, and tried to make a call - no sound! I poked around some more, and my poor Universal no longer makes any sound at all, thru the speakers or the phone. The mic on the phone no longer works either.
It still sends/receives SMS texts, and still connects to the internet via Wifi and 3G, so it is still somewhat useful. If I can get it working again as a "USB Modem", I will keep it... otherwise, it may be time to let it go..... :crying:

Hi,
I bought one today (it was sold as defect device because of missing charger). Hope I will use it for some time.. I totally loved it when I was a teenager but I never had the money to get one (back then I used other nice devices but as you know - during childhood you never had enough money for that kind of stuff). Now I'm trying to get all the devices I always wanted to own (some kind of a childhood dream, devices like HTC Universal, Nokia E90, Palm T/X & Lifedrive and these things..).
But in daily use I have some other devices such as 5C, 6+ and some HTC and Palm smartphones.

I also had a problem with no sound - it was working only on headphones... till today I'm not sure what was the issue, but i tried to overclock processor, cleaning jack input and other stuff.
I am a proud owner of 128MB RAM version, but I don't use it daily

And mine still rocking!
