[APP] Daxter on Galaxy Note II (PSP Emulator) - Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps

Need a new game to play? Something which awesome graphic? Something new? Then take a look at this
Google Play developer Henrik Rydgård has made an PSP emulator that after the last update is capable of running the game Daxter pretty well on our Note II. There is of course some minor FPS lags, and cutscenes dosen't seems to work - But it's still playable. If you've spent hours and hours of your childhood with the Jak & Daxter then you should diffently try it out
So far i've also tried these games:
Tekken 6 - Unplayable (hangs at loading screen)
God of War Chains of Olympus - Unplayable (extremly slow FPS, but works)
Emulator dosen't require a Bios, BUT it does require a ISO of the original UMD, as always DO NOT ASK FOR DOWNLOADS! Xda does NOT support piracy - You'll have to rip the UMD yourself which requires that you have access to a PSP with CFW.
If you want to support the developer there is also a donate edition of the app.
You can get the emulator here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5wcHNzcHAucHBzc3BwIl0.
NOTE - The PS3 sixaxis controller does work with this game using touch emulation.

thanks for the tip

Currently i've have only tried Daxter with success - A list can be found here:

This looks promising

Very promising indeed! Best emulator project ever IMO

Tried Tekken Dark Resurrection today, there is stil some work to be done, but if you enable frame skipping it's OK in the practice level. Background music does load but only for a few seconds.
Can't wait to see the next relase of the emulator - imagining being able to just plug your Note in a HDMI dock and play tekken with your pals

Buildbot
Just found out that there is automated builds of the project - It is being updated serveral times a day so if you've got a game that currently dosen't work you should try to download one of these builds:
http://buildbot.orphis.net/ppsspp/
I've have downloaded the latest release, and it fixes the missing sound problem i was having when playing Dragonball Shin Budokai 2
There is of course still work to do, since there is some minor audio issues, but in general the is one of the most playable games (played it like for 3 hours yesterday)
So if you got it lying around grab that PSP and dumb it
On a little side note i've noticed that when using my Note 2 in the Smart Dock the performance of PPSSPP would significally drop:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42781190#post42781190
So if you want better performance use it without the dockingstation.

Is there any game that works without any bugs or lag?

Little Big Planet seems to be working well enough

Anyone else crazy enough to try out FPse?

Hey there everyone!
I thought I'd never be able to play something properly on my G3.. but looky there! I actually tried out FPse, and without sound, it actually works really well!
Especially games with pre-rendered BGs (like Digimon World or FF 7) are really fluent with Frameskip to 50 fps and no frame limiter (it's a "fake" frameskip, so it doesn't look horrible and is actually quite fluent.)
Perhaps someone else tried it as well or is willing to try it?
Here're the games I tried:
Digimon World - working perfectly (50 - 60 fps)
Grandia - working quite well (40 - 50 fps)
FF7 - working perfectly (mostly 50-60 fps)
Final Fantasy Tactics - didn't want to boot properly
Metal Gear Solid - didn't get past the difficulty selection
FF8 - Dialog with Quistis where the Background suddenly moves makes BG grey and you aren't able to do anything thereafter
Digimon World 3 - working quite well (~40 on map, 50-60 in-battle)
Ogre Battle and Tactics Ogre - working almost perfectly as well (~50 fps)
Due to the Frameskipping, I wouldn't play too many racers or action games on it... would cause quite a bit of slowdown I think, Sled Storm went at about 30 fps on my device (Lestatious 1.2)
There's a little video I made in case you don't believe me, but I'm really enjoying myself!
FPse $$$ and the size of the games are to big for my 2gb sdcard.. theoratically should run almost smooth.
What's FPse?...... And how I get it........ Is it some kind of playstation emulator?

Thanks will try.......
Crash Bandicoot 3 is not very playable fps~20-30 in the game ,and 50-60 fps in the videos.
Gran Turismo 2 w/o FS 30FPS, slowdown 4:1secs (4 sec in real is 1 sec in game)
With FS it say ~40FPS but:
-FS50 stuttering but almost full-speed
-FS40 sometimes stutter too but playable, slowdown ~1,5-2sec.
But... I have an bug(?) - at some menus, with FS i have only black-screen. Game is still working, sounds playing but nothing on display. That mean's after every race we need to disable FS, go thru menus and at start of race turn it again :/
From where download games?
google playstation one roms or something like that anyways. You know you should only download roms of games you own, otherwise it would be illegal.

Best playstation emulator?

Are there any playstation emulators that are working on the galaxy tab 10.1? All of them seem to have weird sound or poor fps. I think psx4droid worked on the xoom, but it's not playing nice on here.
Would also like to know this. Psx4droid just doesn't run any roms, and Fpse works, but lots of frame rate and sound issues running FFVII ( which according to the internets, is one of the best running roms out there).
I've seen it running really well on a phone, don't see why it should run badly on a more powerful device.
using FPse with Crash bandicoot and it works fine for me !
After I updated to Touchwiz UX FPSE started working alot better for me. Before I wasn't getting any sounds in FF9 and the sounds during regular gameplay were very choppy. Now I am getting 52-60 fps and sound emulation is great.
+1 for FPSe
Went through many emulators and the is by far the best.
Using an older version of psx4drioid (pre v2) works the best on tegra devices, havent tried it yet on my GT but on my old g-tablet it was the best emulator. Version 1.2 or 1.5 if I recall correctly.

honycomb does not play nice with psx4droid
use FPSe
- download scph1001.bin from the net
- go to FPSe settinges
- than system
- bios loading and choose scph1001.bin
- restart FPSe
- enjoy with the almost 100% working games with sound and everything
I've found most RPG games have messed up sound with FPSe, anyway to fix this issue? Final Fantasy 7,8,9
whenever i get ff9 fpse wont load it, where are you guys getting your working roms from?
Fpse is the freaking best man, it even works flawlessly on my nexus s
+ 1 fpse
I wish I could get FPse working for me, I have the correct Bios, but when I load any game it shows a black screen for 30 seconds and then force closes. I know the roms are working because they work with PSX4droid (however PSX4droid randomly crashes and sound clips). Do you think its because I'm using the Starburst ROM? Or possibly I have a bad bios file?
FPSe loads FF9 fine if I have the BIOS file loaded, except:
1) Graphics look like crap. There are settings that VASTLY improve graphics quality but these make it laggy/choppy
2) No sound in many areas. Basically, there is no background music
Well FPSe is working great in terms of frame rate and all that ... But yeah getting a weird sound issue where the music in FFVII seems to be chopped off a little.
Notes don't' seem like they are completing or something. Kind of weird.

Runs perfectly smooth with no slowdown in FMV sequences? Because I am not having a similar experience. I have messed with the settings a lot, and I can get generally smooth gameplay and battle sequences (50-60fps) but I cannot keep the FMV scenes from being stuttery/jerky at time.

I have spusync option on under audio and frame limiter + frame skip 50fps. With these settings i get smooth gameplay in any game I have tried including FFVII and FMV scenes.
Try it out, the frame skip 50 fps allows some games to run normal for some reason with out any jerky gerky. (make sure frame limiter is active)
Happy gaming!

Emulator gaming

We all know Wildfire is a bit (lot) on the slow side, but, surprisingly I was able to play and complete several PS1 games on it, yes 3D games, on Wildfire!
So far I played:
Playstation 1 (FPse):
*Gran Turismo 1 - played nicely, was able to win few races in simulation mode (if you played GT1, you know AI is a bit hard, even more in US and japanese versions). I'm big GT fan so I don't enjoy it if it isn't on wheel or joystick (got PS3 only for GT5 ).
*Resident Evil 1/2 - completed, very nice gameplay.
*Metal Gear Solid - stuck on electricity torture after defeating Sniper Wolf (can't press the button fast enough, but, no big deal, I completed the game 10ish times), nice gameplay overall.
*Tekken 2 - works fine, smooth.
*Twisted Metal 2 - nice gameplay.
*Few other games.
Super Nintendo (SNESoid):
*Mortal Kombat # - No problem, smooth, fun, got my a** kicked, though.
*A lot of other games, all played smooth.
Gameboy Advance (GameBoid):
*Pokemon: Fire Red Version - best game ever , playing it currently, smooth gameplay.
Note: Games were played on CM7/RemPuzzle Lite, clocked at: 528-748 MHz with ondemand governor (PS1) and 352-691 MHz, again, ondemand governor (SNES, GBA).
So, did you play any game? If you did, share it!
Gameboy Advance:
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
Castlevania: Harmony Of Dissonanace
Pokemon Emerald
Zelda: a Link to the Past
I have also tried Need for Spped Carbon for the GBA, but it's really laggy once you try to use multitouch (multiple controls at once)
Are you running overclocked or stock?
Wow blast from the past. This was the whole reason I rooted my phone to start with back in the day,so I could o/c and kick ass on tekken3. No place on my phone anymore for games but loved that period/phase I went through.
Fspe served me well, but I think it was a little awkward to understand at first if I remember right.
Sorry ramble over.lol
Tekken 1,2,3
Hogs of war
Lots of others but can't remember.
it made sense in my head !!!
I played tiger snes/ GBA. sound is so laggy; have to turn off the sound ?

1. Download the emulator application, e.g. GameBoid.apk is for Game Boy Advance
2. Download the BIOS (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS), to simplify, the thing that makes the emulator application think your phone is a Game Boy Advance, Playstation or whatever.
3. Dowload the actual game and enjoy
I cant supply you with links because this is kinda considered warez, but i will send you everything in PM if youre interested.

Well, only some emulators require special bios, those do "heavy" emulation, simply, if you want to play game boy advance, google gba bios, it should be in .bin format. Download it and copy to sd card, then, start the emulator application and it will ask you to locate bios, just navigate to the .bin file and select it, done.

it seems like wildfire can handle every gba/snes/genesis game, but on fpse:
diablo - laggy
tomba - laggy
harvest moon - found running good at 50 fps, lol
medievil - laggy still, sometimes is playable..
Chrono Cross - laggy
CM7 build 57, 652-768 mhz on smartass, is really there anything to improve gaming perfomance on this device?
FPSe on the wildfire with no gpu? How is that even possible! Is it all software rendered?
I tried FPse emulator, I tried both Resident evil and Gran Turismo 1.........
I faced problems on both games.......
I have the Digital controls set, But On resident evil i couldn't attack the zombie, I pressed all the keys but no use...... On gran turismo, I couldn't get the car to run, Which key to use.
And Can we use the touch panel to control the games, It would be awesome.
And what other games can you play on it.... Please help

i dont know what could be the problem, when i was playing all touch keys worked just fine, you should disable the sound im fpse though because sound is performance killer. id try different version of fpse first, then try to fix it if it doesnt work.

Oh I can drive the car on Gran Turismo,.... It was because the Gsensor driving was on, so it drove backward when I pressed the key........ Everything else works good.
They say you have to press the R1 to aim and X to fire.... but it only works sometimes.
so I can't use a knife on resident evil, and on landscape there is no R1, R2, L1, L2, how to fix that?

ppsspp thread

Hello, I thought I would start a post about ppsspp. For those who don't know it is a psp emulator. It can be downloaded free on the play store but the newest automatic builds at the bottom of the downloads section on the ppsspp website can sometimes run better. Please suggest any good games you find and any suggested settings.
I have been playing Hexyz Force and Final Fantasy type 0.
Hexyz runs very well but the simulate block transfer setting has to be enabled in graphics settings to work correctly. This game is a jrpg akin to the psx final fantasy games.
Final fantasy type 0 will only run correctly if the multi core setting is disabled in system setting. Type 0 is a more action rpg type game with none of the classic final fantasy turn based battles.
Is your FF0 english patched and what Settings are you using, i haven't tried the ppsspp yet on my Z3, last time i used this is back when i own an xperia play.
Yes it's English patched, the biggest speed boost is from turning multi core off and non buffered rendering. With those settings it runs quite well.
The Crisis Core with Z3 is Fully Functional by the default Settings, but the Graphics is Pixelated, so i wanted to know what needs to be adjusted to get the best graphics without compromising the Performance.
Has anyone been able to run Motorstorm?
although i have the actual umd and a psp i wanna play it on my z3 hehe
3 games in my phone. Need for speed most wanted, fifa street 2 & motogp.
I can play harvest moon and persona 3 portable without any problems!

[Discussion][Android] Other Emulators & Games

Besides PPSSPP and Dolphin (Gamecube & Wii) are there other emulators that people have tested on the switch?
Personally, I'd like to see PS2 emulation, but I know it's a bit of a stretch. :silly:
Also, what are some favorites that play well on the switch?
I ask for discussion since there isn't a thread around.
Drastic and the Beta of Redream should work well.
I guess DamonPS2 should be able to play some lighter games reasonably but don't expect too much.
These are the emulators I have downloaded that I can personally confirm work:
-SNES9X, runs all of the SNES games I have flawlessly.
-Mupen64Pluz FZ, runs all of the N64 games I have flawlessly.
-My OldBoy!, runs all GB and GBC games I have flawlessly.
-My Boy!, runs all GBA games I have flawlessly.
-Dolphin MMJ, does not run all Gamecube games I have flawlessly. (further information below)
-nds4droid, does not run all DS games I have flawlessly. (further information below)
-PPSSPP, runs all PSP games I have flawlessly.
-Redream, runs all Dreamcast games I have flawlessly.
I wasn't able to get the regular Dolphin emulator to run Gamcube games, let alone even install Wii games. The Dolphin MMJ version has some lag, but I don't know the proper optimization through settings that is required to get it to run flawlessly. Other users have posted that theirs work flawlessly, but I haven't seen an extensive list of the settings they use.
Nds4droid lags with the Pokemon games. I've tried to download over 15 different DraStic DS emulator APK files and none have worked for me. They kept displaying an error message of not having something. I can't recall exactly off the top of my head at the moment.
Could someone create a foolproof guide in text or video format as to how to get Dolphin and DraStic to run properly?

Well I'd imagine all retro stuff to work flawlessly. Probably everything in the retroarch set really. Really hoping GZDoom and Morrowind work flawless on android as well, while not an emulator nor engine on thing I'm kinda looking forward to is Zenonia and Chaos Rings, should it actually run

If someone gets Morrowind running, I'd definitely be interested in playing that as I've never played it before.
Unfortunately, that tutorial doesn't help me because I didn't need the Octopus application since the Joy Con fix works with Dolphin MMJ. I'm referring to the graphical and enhancement settings in Dolphin.

DraStic runs perfectly bought from the playstore.
DraStic works fine for me, too. It does show some kind of an pop-up error at the beginning, but the emulator itself works fine afterwards.
When it comes to other emulators besides DraStic:
PPSSPP: Played only Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, emulator is working great, although SW: TFU does have *some* slowdowns (but this is the same across all platforms, so very probably not a performance issue), but overall completely playable.
When it comes to games:
Star Wars: KOTOR: I am using version 1.0.9 (from Amazon Appstore) and it works perfectly (including gamepad right out of the box).
GTA: San Andreas: Working fine, but the sticks are not working for movements. Buttons work fine.
Half-Life 2: Native Tegra version, works perfectly fine.
Will continue to edit this post.

Remember, F-Droid is a thing, my friend. Just like a brother above, we're not limited to Google stuff, I for one, have no intention to use Google stuff. I'll be using FDroid, Aurora Store and Amazon c:
https://f-droid.org/packages/com.libopenmw.openmw/ I do believe this uses SDL for joysticks.
My list of emulators are as follows; for everything else I use retroarch.
PSX:
Epsxe - nice psx emulator, works exactly how you would imagine a box standard emulator to work and does the job quite well. Can’t say any downsides to this emulator
Fpse: my favourite out of the two, upscales into HD and even forces a widescreen that doesn’t end in a stretched out mess. Honestly this emulator will make tekken 3 look like tekken 6 (a slight over exaggeration but it’s worth it). The downside is there is no free version and it’s gonna cost you a couple of quid/dollars.
Dreamcast:
Reicast- it works as well as it’s lakka version only this time you can dock the switch for TV. Has a widescreen hack and looks quite nice in places although some textures don’t work right (shenmue need more than a plaster to cover that hole in his face). Downsides are some games don’t work.
Redream - works great, all games I’ve tried run fine including stupid invaders (if that’s what you’re into) that being said, that game doesn’t get past the Sega logo in reicast so this emulator offers more support! I can’t remember if you have to pay for it though and just like reicast it doesn’t support “win ce” games like resident evil 2.
PS2:
Damonps2 - runs a little worse than dolphin, I haven’t found a single game I could consider as playable in that emulator but it shows promise and apparently is due an upgrade that will offer a lot of speed up. This emulator has seen some controversy because the dev ripped off code from the pc version of psx2 and I believe there’s some lawsuit involved. Has the most drawbacks. The free version won’t let you save and the paid version asks for your **** size amongst all over personal data as well as it won’t work if you’re offline or use the xposed frame network. It also shuts itself if you have Magisk installed. To get it to work again you have to hide the application with Magisk hide.
DS:
Drastic - you might have to pay but damn is it worth it. Looks amazing and can swap your screens instantly by pressing the thumb sticks in, not so great for games that utilise both screens at once like Sonic Rush but plays great!!
Like I say everything else I use retroarch for.

I can’t remember if you have to pay for it though and just like reicast it doesn’t support “win ce” games like resident evil 2.
PS2:
Damonps2 - runs a little worse than dolphin, I haven’t found a single game I could consider as playable in that emulator but it shows promise and apparently is due an upgrade that will offer a lot of speed up. This emulator has seen some controversy because the dev ripped off code from the pc version of psx2 and I believe there’s some lawsuit involved. Has the most drawbacks. The free version won’t let you save and the paid version asks for your **** size amongst all over personal data as well as it won’t work if you’re offline or use the xposed frame network. It also shuts itself if you have Magisk installed. To get it to work again you have to hide the application with Magisk hide.
DS:
Drastic - you might have to pay but damn is it worth it. Looks amazing and can swap your screens instantly by pressing the thumb sticks in, not so great for games that utilise both screens at once like Sonic Rush but plays great!!
Like I say everything else I use retroarch for.

For PSX I'd honestly recomend RetroArch (Both android and HorizonOS). It already has Upscaling and it's free. As for Tekken 3 to Tekken 6, I'd yet to find out, haha.
I'm Glad that the Dreamcast works great!! Do you have any recommendations?
PS2- I kinda expected that. Have you tried the Play! Emulator?
DS- Can you do anti aliasing or Upscaling?
I'm currently in the process of getting it on the switch (Had a week long exam) but I'll gladly report any findings I get as well.

Well it’s the widescreen hack that sells Fpse for me, epsxe has one but the graphics flicker a bit. Although I think epsxe runs games better, I do get graphical issues when using the gl plugin. (Tekken 6 for PSP... at a push haha).
I’d recommend using redream for Dreamcast as it offers more support. I’m a big fan of the sonic games and hey run perfectly. I have a lot of fighters on there to and it’s much easier to set up 2 player with redream.
I haven’t managed to get play! working yet, retroarch crashes when I boot it and any app I’ve installed from google searches don’t work or are fake (or maybe I’m doing something wrong).
Yes, the DS can do anti aliasing, I can’t describe how nice they look upscaled. Especially the more 3D heavy games, run really smooth too! Loads of options, i’d Recommend having a look at a few reviews, but it runs amazing in the switch.
I’ve recently downloaded arc browser after a few days of trying to fathom the very poor tutorials of setting up Hyperspin. It’s a nice GUI to load all your games for different emulators in one app. It’s nice to look through all my roms with added cover art and fan art, it does cost like £8 though.
I will add that all emulators I’ve tried to run made by “Robert Broglia” like MD.EMU and Neo Geo emulators do not work in docked mode, it’s almost as though the apps themselves just don’t understand what it is. I managed to get a Sega CD game running through MD.emu docked when I loaded the game through arc browser and it loads and plays and then crashes when you exit making it so you have to undock and redock the switch.
Dolphin works fine for me but the remapping of control for Wii doesn't want to stick after i launch a game. When it does it seems to forget half of the remapping. Anybody else?

DraStic works fine for me, too. It does show some kind of an pop-up error at the beginning, but the emulator itself works fine afterwards.
When it comes to other emulators besides DraStic:
PPSSPP: Played only Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, emulator is working great, although SW: TFU does have *some* slowdowns (but this is the same across all platforms, so very probably not a performance issue), but overall completely playable.
When it comes to games:
Star Wars: KOTOR: I am using version 1.0.9 (from Amazon Appstore) and it works perfectly (including gamepad right out of the box).
GTA: San Andreas: Working fine, but the sticks are not working for movements. Buttons work fine.
Half-Life 2: Native Tegra version, works perfectly fine.
Will continue to edit this post.

Are you certain about the version of KOTOR? I purchased first from Google Play and received version 1.0.6 which hangs, then bought it from Amazon Appstore and received version 1.0.7 which appears to be the latest currently available and it isn't loading fully either.
