My son wants to play Super Mario run on the shield. Problem is needs you to touch the screen to play the game. I thought just using a mouse would work, but it doesn't.
I was hoping there was some way to simulate a screen touch. I tried downloading a couple remote apps but I haven't found anything that works yet.
Any ideas, Is it even possible?

I have a Nvidia shield tablet which has a controller mapper built in. Try pressing and holding the start button on the controller.

One of the main reasons a friend of mine & I puchased the HTC PPC6800 from Alltel was that we intended on loading up Roms & Emulators from the original NES. However, while you can put an emulator onto the phone & run it, the QWERTY keyboard only allows you to push one keystroke at a time!! Anyone familiar with gaming, reguardless of the platform, can understand just how unplayable almost every game is without the ability to run & jump! You can run.. You can jump. You just can't do both simultaniously.
If there are any known fixes for this, please help.. I'm desperate. I'm guessing it's a software issue as there are already keys on the keyboard that support multi-button pushing such as the shift and function keys. I imagine there must be a work-around of some kind out there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading!
Turn the 6800 on it's side(closed) like a psp and use the d-pad for direction and the e-mail and internet buttons for A and B. From what I understand those buttons don't suffer from the one keystroke limitation.
The only issue with that is the emulator, and subsequently every emulator I've tried after for NES doesn't support the sideways resolution for whatever reason. The loading screen for booting a rom with turn just like any other window would but the second the actual game loads it flips back up vertical. SNES emulators seem to handle the horizontal resolution just fine but the controller on the SNES had 6 buttons so mapping just 2 really doesn't cut it.
I currently try to play on the tiny little controls at the bottom and none of them seem to be effected by the two buttons at a time issue but the Ok button can't be mapped so playing around it is unbearable to the point of just not wanting to play. Not to mention it kills the WOW factor of showing someone when you have to play the game with a controller that's the size of a quarter.
Good call. I forgot to mention the landscape resolution thing. I ran into this thread shortly after reading yours. If you haven't seen it check this one out. I believe one or more of those emulators address the landscape abilities (MorphGear and SmartGear). Hope that helps.
The program is really slick for emulation, I'll give you that. lol. It's pay for use so I'm just messing with it in the 5 min demo mode but so far it looks like it'd definitely be worth buying.. I'm still however running into the multi-key issue on the QWERTY. NES is fine without using the QWERTY as it only requires an A & B button but the SNES had 6 buttons that need to be mapped and getting them all in an accessable spot on the face of the unit just isn't happening.
Has anyone heard anything about a possible fix for this?
As you FPSECE fans know, the LG expo Alpha keys are currently not mappable for input.
Anyone working on some sort of fix that will let FPSECE use the hardware keyboard, or am i stuck using my old Kaiser as a blue tooth remote control?
my thoughts exactly. anybody know how to map alpha keys?
I have the same problem, and also when I play gran turismo and hold the key for riding and while I press the arrow, the key for riding is disconnected
sorry for my english
Sorry guys, there is no keyboard fix. The keyboard will not support multiple key presses, only a few keys are mappable, and the screen is not multi-touch... so no on screen controls either. Go snag Cobalt Controller and use a ps3 sixaxis controller. You'll have to re-assign the controller's blutooth mac and then it works flawlessly with FPSECE.
Just an idea
I have an AT&T fuze, and we had a similar problem on our phone due to it not been able to register the keys individualy, but as a hole, what could be the case with your phones. Some developers made some programs to fix this issue, but what really did it for me was the duttythroy Disable xt9 cab, very simple an easy, and you can find it here with search.
If you could try this please let me know your results on this thread, since I was thinking of purchasing this phone.
Thanks for your reply
I use a PS3 sixaxis controller also. I have 2 Dualshock PS3 controllers and 2 regular sixaxis controllers so I just dedicated one of those to the phone. Seriously the most amazing way to play. 58-60FPS Gran Turismo 2 with a controller is phenomenal.
I have read about several people using a PS3 controller to play PS1 games on the expo as well as some people also using the pico projector as well to run the games. So just in case people didn't know the pico projector does work very well in combination with the PS3 controller.
However, that's not for me. I don't want to purchase or lug around either one of those to play games. Part of the reason I initially got the expo over something like the tilt 2 was because of the faster processor, but it's almost pointless if the keys don't work. In all honesty though I really like the phone and wouldn't trade it for another phone after using it, PS1 games or not. But still, if anyone figures out a way or writes a program to get the keys to work please keep us posted.
Using the multi-key function you can overcome a few things. Playing a racing game, use multi-keys to combine the gas button with both the right and left button. This will allow you to turn while still applying gas. Also the multi-keys work to map a single button, this seems to have a better response compared to the normal d-pad buttons.

Thanks for the help. I'll see if this makes it any easier. It would be nice though if eventually someone made a fix for this.

I had the same Fuze phone and I had the same issue with the keyboard, also the fix was to disable xt9, now Im going to buy this eXpo phone, I hope the xt9 fix works too.
Not sure if this has already been addressed? I am looking for a App or some sort of control on my tablet, so that when I am watching videos it locks out the screen. My daughter is almost 1 year old, and likes to watch Mickey Mouse on my tablet. The issue is, she likes to hold my tablet, and ends up turning off Mickey. I wanted to be able to disable the touch screen, or have a certain area to activate the touch screen again. Not sure if there is a app like this? Thanks for any help!

I'm pretty sure mx player has an option on screen that allows you to lock it down while playing, I also find it to be a very nice, straight forward player that runs all my files nicely.

More than that I've been searching for an app that turns off the display completely while hooked up over hdmi. That plus Ps3 controller = replacing the wii in my bedroom. Ha
Is this real life?
have any of you had any luck with this game? The gyro is backwards so i cant use it. I plugged in my sixaxis PS3 controller into the dock. most of the buttons works, but i cant look around with the right stick.
So im forced to touch screen with snap aiming help. its ok, but the snapping is very glitchy and sometimes dont snap at all. so i am stuck at one point.
Is there any other option here? I would love to use my sixaxis but i dont want to root quite yet (warranty).
Thanks
Hello all, just joined because I couldn't find info on this on the web, at least no info that included answers.
I have most of my GBA collection backed up and often load the roms onto my Android phone to emulate. I have never encountered this issue until now, with my first OnePlus phone. This leads me to believe that it is an issue with the phone/phone settings rather than the emulators themselves.
I use the touch screen controls when playing GBA. The buttons are not registering my presses unless I hold down the button for a second or two. All input requires me to touch and hold the button. I digged through my phone settings but nothing stood out that could be causing this.
Everything else with the phone has been great, but this is definitely a deal breaker that will force me to switch back to Google devices.

Hey there,
Using MyBoy emulator, and a super Mario Bros room, I had 0 input lag. Has to be something on your side. Positive here is that it's not One plus phones

That's good news, I really like this phone otherwise. I guess it could still be something in the phone settings though. I have my emulators set up exactly how I had them before.
I'm also using MyBoy GBA.
Figured it out! The triple tap to zoom feature in the phone settings was causing it. Turned it off and it works normal now.
