did u unecm them? are the bin files?
Edit just first select the bios file in the settings in psx4droid, then select a game file should work let me know if you have issues, i have it running no problem..

Yes game roms are bin
And its bit confusing as there is only one place to select bios in settings
So if I understand u correctly, i'm suppose to first select bios and then rom in same place by going back right?
I'll try it and let u know

use 7zip on pc to unzip... thats what created the 7z, and is better than using winrar or winrar IMHO.. 100% free

Ohh sorry for confusion but I was talking about unzipping 7z on phone I use 7zip on computer

Yea it shows unzipping at the end of operation I get ecm file around 10-20 mb no larger even if it works it has maybe low internal space issue but i'm not sure just my 2 cents

What about the bought one i wonder if that has a file limit as well?

ECM is another file compression method, commonly found in PSX roms. You will have to undo the ECM compression to convert the file to .bin or .iso. You will have to use the ECM converter from this link - www.neillcorlett.com/ecm/.
It is not recommended to unzip files using android market apps, use the computer instead.

I have a question about making a zip file

I would like to put a bunch of the zip files I flash and throw them all together and flash just one zip file. Anyone have any insight for me?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

You should be able to extract the file structure of ur multiple zips and consolidate them into one flshable. Not sure how to explain it better than that though. What all are u flashing?

More then likely you will need to change the install script depending on the file structure of .zips you added to one .zip

Stock Browser or Smart Scroll Compatible

Hello all.
I've finally been able to resolve the instability issues iv'e had with custom kernels and roms on the galaxy s4. My current issue is that i've installed [ROM] [TeaM VeNuM] The Blu Kuban S4 (Currently BETA) with the [KERNEL][SPRINT][TOUCHWIZ][5/22/2013] KT-SGS4 - MDL - KTweaker. My only issue is that i can't seem to find the stock internet browser. I tried installing the BrowserProviderProxy.apk(37kb) but it doesn't seem to be the proper file. Anyone know where I could get the file or what browser is compatible with the smart scroll?

The file is SBrowser_SPR.apk.

You don't install it. You need to use a file manager like root Explorer or es Explorer and copy the apk to the system/app folder. Set permissions and reboot.

ya man I was going nuts trying to figure out why it wasn't working. Finally I extracted that from one of the roms around and voila! Works like a charm. I don't have an account where I could upload it, otherwise I would. Same rules apply, paste it in system/app along with sbrowser_spr.apk and permissions rw_r__r__

I tried this but it did not work. I used esExplorer and copied the apks in the /system/app dir and changed the properties of the files to rw- - r- - r- -
But regardless of the apk i attempt to install, they all fail except the BrowserProviderProxy.apk.

That's the first thing i did.

After trying and trying and trying again, it is somehow installed even though the installations failed. Thanks for the help though.

[Q] cm camera

Is there any way to get the cyanogenmod camera without installing the rom? Like I have pa3 and I love this rom and don't wanna switch over to cm just for the camera, so is there like an apk file or zip file to install and use the cm camera on pa3?
Thanks!

Just extract the camera apk from the cm rom and flash it..

You can't flash a apk file. You install it from the phone not in recovery mode.

I didn't mean flash the apk, I meant zip it into the appropriate folders and flash it.

There's no zipping and flashing. You push the apk to system/app/, set permissions and reboot.

I tried that, couldn't find an answer, so then I posted this thread. Like I found gallery2.apk, went to install it and it didn't install. Then I didn't know what to do after that so I gave up

Giving up won't get you anywhere.
Using a root file explorer, go to system/app/, mount as r/w, and copy that gallery apk to the directory. Set permissions to be the same as the other apk's in the directory. Reboot.

Depends on the file explorer. Usually, long press the apk after copying it, select permissions or similar. They'll need to be set as rw-r--r--.
Searching the cm thread just yielded great results for me by the way.

I think so, I long pressed and tapped on permissions, I got a 3x3 grid and then looked at other apps in the folder, the grids looked the same. I even went into cwm and did the fix permissions thing there also. And ya I tried that, didn't work
