Typo: Meant Not in the title not "now".
Hello fellow smart phone users,
I am new to the deal, would be safe to assume I know nothing. This should be fun for some of you ^.^"
I've got the HD2/Leo from T-Mobile UK and currently on the 1.43.110.2 rom
I have the 3.5 .NET Framework thing installed as per the intructions on the tips thread here. God knows if that has to do with anything.
But the problem is, when I start the FPSEce 0.10, the loader thing starts alright, then when I click on on fpsece010.exe as instructed on Pdf, all I get is a black screen for 1 sec, then back to where ever I was, the app simply doesn't exists in the task manager. Tried uninstalling FPSEce and installing it into the device memory instead duno if that helps, but still no good.
Am I missing something here ? Was there something I should;ve done in the installation process ? Didn't find a video on youtube which is really a N00b guide, all of them assume it works first.
Anyone with the same problem ??
Your help will be greatly appreciated !!!
PEACE^^
The Post is sinking into te abyss with no replies ... Help !!!!!
my advice is to wait for newer versions of fpse as the current 0.10 is still unplayable in my opinion. the control functions have not yet been configured for proper use with the HD2 screen.
im not sure if .net 3.5 is required for fpse but have you configured your device (device policies) to use .net 3.5 in the .net configurator
before some one starts flaming! yes i have tried it and got games to work but the current controls its just to cumbersome to play in my opinion!
ignore due to repost

cheers for the reply,
But I have made the registry change so it uses 3.5 but no good ?
It simply won't start, any chance that it conflict with a specific app ?
Same problems and no answers
here same problem too
1. Do you have a PSX BIOS file in the BIOS folder?
2. Are you starting it from the FPSE icon in the start menu?
3. Do you have a PSX ISO ( game ) to load?
There is no reason to be clicking on fpsece010.exe since the Startmenu icon is handling this. With the correct BIOS installed you should see a request to select your ISO game file at startup.

The donation version works great with the HD2. Well worth the investment.
same here
i got supporter fpsece 0.10 version n still got same problem
if anyone needs bios files check the link below. I've been meaning to test this out so i got in touch with some of my old friends in the emulation scene and i have managed to obtain a quantity of of bios files of many different versions.
I knew all that time i spent playing mario, sonic and co on the pc as a teenager wouldn't be wasted.
I downloaded it and played around before doing the last T-Mo US update, but I could not get multi touch working at all. Until that works in the free version I will save my money. Otherwise it worked very well and I was pleased with the quality, but trying to race with only one button pressed at a time was not so fun

you need to use a bios rom (i am using SCPH1001). copy this file to /Programs/FpseCE/BIOS, then launch fpsece. when the loader shows up, tap "cancel", the program should start and you should see the playstation animation and hear the sound. if this worked, exit fpsece by long-pressing the [X].
then start fpsece again, choose your playstation image in the loader.
if you own the supporter version, you should use the hd2 optimized pack.

You need the supporter version for multitouch. I would highly recommend spending the few dollars it costs to get that if you have the hd2.... its well worth it. This is one of the best programs out there for gamers.... you have the entire playstation library in the palm of your hands. You can even get a psx iso with a nes emulator and every nes game and it plays pretty well with fpsece. The multi-touch controls make a huge difference. Also with the supporter version you get realtime saving and g-sensor support. Well worth the measly 5euros it costs.
strange one here but isnt against forum rules to upload the bios here seen as you're not supposed to be able to get hold of one even though a quick google and you can find it

Hello all,
I have receintly upgraded to an Xperia X1 on Vodafone UK, coming from a very old out of date phone, it is quite a leap, though i am use to Windows mobile.
I have been reading some of the topics here and have come across some questions, which i hope some kind sole does not mind answering for me.
1) A lot of talk is about flashing ROMS, i assume this is some kind of upgrade to the firmware or OS. Would somebody mind just explaining what it is and why its of benifit.
2)Another thing that has generated a lot of talk is hard SPL, again what is this?
3) I am a keen gamer and want to get some good games up and running on my phone. Though a lot of what i try does not work, i have seen suggestion on other forums that a bit of software can help a lot of compatible games run. Does anybody know what it is i may require? I have seen a video on youtube of somebody running some FPS games is this fake or is it possible?
4) As a new Xperia owner i would also like some suggestions of anything that people think to be essential, to get the best out of my phone. Be these software, firmware upgrades ect. I have installed Batti and Xperia Tweak both of which have been extremely usefull.
Cheers in advance for any help.
1) Have you ever formatted your PC because it's full of junk and it's the only way to remove the crap and start a fresh? Bit like that with some ROM's. Others start from nothing and install programs for you. I find it best to use a clean ROM (Jacks) then install what I want on top.
2) Hard_SPL allows you to flash a new ROM onto the device.
3) FPS is possible but remember it is a phone at the end of the day. Alot of games run fine and the rest just need the VGA fix as it's a different resolution.
Hope that helps
Thanks for the swift and helpfull responce.
So if i was to flash a new rom would it speed up my phone any or stop/reduce all the random errors i get?
I have heard that i may need to install .net framework 3.5 onto my phone to get some of the games working. How easy and safe is this to do? I assume it is just like adding anyother software to my phone.
Yes I would (and have) installed 3.5 framework. It is easy to install and maintain as it's just a cab installer.
I use the Jacks 1.4 Lite ROM. It's much quicker than stock and is as stable as you make it really. I highly reccomend at least reading up about it.

Well so far I've installed SPB Backup, which does pretty much what it says on the tin. Useful if you plan on doing any modding, I guess. I also stuck SPB time on there coz I needed a decent stopwatch. There's a neat little program called Touch Response that basically makes the phone vibrate slightly when you press the touchscreen. The strength of the vibrate can be configured. It's not essential but it gives a nice physical feedback which touch screens often lack. Flash 3.1 is available for download and works with the Opera 9.5 browser. Oh yeah, coreplayer's a good one too. I can't remember where I got all of these but there should be some links on here. You could also try www.xperia-x1.com or www.inexperia.com or www.modaco.com
My current software setup includes:
Resco Explorer - Nice touch-friendly file explorer with many options
Mini Stumbler - Helps you find wifi hotspots
Call Firewall - Nice people ditcher
Coreplayer - for playing videos with assorted codecs
G-Alarm - Cool alarm replacement, you have to solve a puzzle before being able to snooze it
Missed call reminder - beep reminder for missed calls
Newsbreak - RSS reader
Pocket Tunes - iTunes playlist sync for winmo
Resco Audio Recorder - lets you record voice notes and your own phone conversations
Spb Wireless Monitor - lets you run reports on internet usage
Stopwatch - standard stop watch
hTorch - turns your camera flash into a flashlight
This is why i sold my iphone to come back to windows mobile, it's sooo much flexible, I missed being able to mod my phone.
Thanks once again for the great responces and help, they have been of great use i will be getting a good 80% of what has been suggested, it sounds right up my street.
Hi everybody.
I was looking for an SNES emulator for my Diamond on WM6 for hours and hours... So difficult to find one working ! I've tried a lot.
I've finaly found that one : SNES9xPPC. That's the only one who work on my Diamond. Actually, there no sound (or I didn't find the way to) but all roms I tried are working (even chrono trigger, basic instinc and all 3 DK that have somes problems on DS emulators...).
The display is a bit slow, but almost all right.
No cab file found, just put the exe and play.
Better than nothing, but still wait for a good version of an SNES emulator !
Peace
PS : If somebody find the way to get press Y and B buttun at the same time, I'm listenning to !
lol.
i am just amazed by what You found..prehistory..
believe me, it is bad idea to use that one you found.
just search for HTC optimised pocketsnes( modaco forum ), or ARM/XSCALE optimised pocketsnes( n0p site) - that second group emus will be slow on your htc toy...
you may check morphgear, or snes9xj4u(which is just BEST for portrait mode with ARM/XSCALE machines).
to your information: NEVER use frameskip less than 2.
you will save power and gain gameplay time(..too).
NEVER use sound interpolation function.
NEVER save after turning emu sound option off, if you played with sound earlier(saves may crash pernamently).
more info:
modaco regions(htc oriented ONLY):
http://www.modaco.com/category/38/smartphone-software-games/
n0p, xscale master site(snes, dos, sega emus):
http://n0p.8bit.fm/
you know, ppc emu world still exists..
Hi nothin !
Be sure I've tried all you talk about ! Even I found the nes9xj4u somewhere lost on the web... And no of them worked. Always a crash, most of time when I openned the roms files.
No matter, that one work, I'll wait now for a good version on WM6 wich enable the landcape mode with soft keys, and incha allah the 2player by bluetooth (does somebody hear me ?!)
even, thanks for suggestions of parameters you're right, it work.
PS: a toy you said ?!
Masterall's PocketSNES 1.53
This is the one that has always ran perfectly on my Wizard QVGA. Not sure how it'll run on a VGA device. Better than n0p's version.
http://www.modaco.com/content/smartphone-software-games/237589/pocketsnes-1-53/
Would you mind linking to that version somewhere else, ive always wanted a working snes emulator though ive never found one, but i dont feel like registering on a new forum just for a file
SeanFromSoCal, Pocketsnes 1.53 is not working on wm6 vga...
Hello folks,
This is my first post here. First I want to say thanks to the community at large here for the wealth of information that can be found here on the forums and wikis. You guys have made my HTC Advantage x7501 that much more valuable and entertaining for me!
My question is about SNES and NES emulation for the Advantage (or Ameo or Athena). I have read the wiki articles on SNES and NES emulators, and I have tried a number of the programs, but so far I haven't been very successful. There seem to be so many options out there, and a lot of the links and information is old or no longer valid (I can't find Tala's OpenGL SNES emulator to try it out, for instance).
If you have a SNES or NES emulator that work for you on your device, which one is it and what settings do you use?
I have tried these ones, to varying degrees of success:
-SNES-
n0p's PocketSNES: freezes up on me, seems unable to load a ROM
SNES9xJ4u: was able to change menus from Japanese to English, but I can't get a good picture. It loads portrait style, but not in a usable way (really small, picture garbled a little). On the plus side, it is REALLY fast.
-NES-
PocketNester: I've had the most success with this one. I can get games going in portrait, looking good. Button/key-mapping is really weird, it seems that PocketNester remaps it automatically in some weird fashion. Landscape would be nice.
PocketNesterPlus: For whatever reason I can't see all of the menus to change options or key-mapping. I can't use the scroll bar. Without being able to map keys or fiddle with graphics, I haven't been able to use this one. I really wish I could, because landscape would be sweet.
SmartGear: This one runs fast. Really fast. But the graphics are way off and I can't adjust them. It runs just a tiny box in portrait.
Lastly, I should note that I have tried and love ScummVM. If you're a fan of those old school games try it out! Monkey Island, baby.
maybe u shud try morphgear
Yeah, Morphgear is the one of the few that I haven't tried yet. I have to admit that I was hoping for a free solution, but I'll give it a shot and reply back with my experience.
Have you tried Morphgear on the Advantage?
I tried Morphgear, with the SNES plugin, and it looks very hopeful! I can get it to work in landscape at a good speed.
I'm still working on getting the keymapping right, and so far I haven't been able to get sound working. I'll let you know if I am able to get it going right.
Anyone happen to know where I can find a working link to Tala's OpenGL SNES emulator? If so, can you point me in the right direction? I'm not sure how it would work on my Advantage, but I'd like to give it a shot.
OpenGL On the Advantage/AMEO
I to have been trying to find an OpenGL driver for this phone for three days solid but I am pretty sure that it is not possible due to, if I remember correctly back in the day HTC crippled this functionality which led to talk up a clash action suit in the States for this and other HTC phones that doesn't support 3-D acceleration, or did I just dream that scenario?
As I have left this issue for over two years before searching a couple of days ago I was hoping that somebody in development in this forum would have found a way to get round this problem but last I think this phones development days are numbered, sadly.
There is nothing when you do a Google search and when you do a search in this forum you get the three results including this thread. I believe this thread answers our question, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670429&highlight=OpenGL
"HTC Sense uses opengl and it cannot run smoothly without a hardware accelerated opengl driver for the device.
As far as there is no hw opengl driver for Athena devices you won't see any ROM with Sense on Athena."
Such a shame as this phone with its fast CPU backing the day would have been awesome with 3-D acceleration.

I might have spoken too soon, I found this suggestion:
"Vincent ES 1.x is a 3D rendering library based on the OpenGL (R) ES 1.1 API specification (Common Lite) for embedded devices." http://sourceforge.net/projects/ogl-es/
,which worked okay but not brilliant for the Throttle Launcher Theme application. anyway it's a start and may be will be good enough for 3-D gamig on the advantage, see what you think.
I have no emulators to try it on but the instructions seemed to be drop it in the folder of the application you are using and it is detected so maybe you can see if it speeds up the emulator rendering?
Cheers
HKCU-Software-Jblend-Full_Screen_Mode..............change to 1
What does this do please?
Are we improving anything???
I suspect he is telling you that registry change will allow jblend to run in fullscreen.
Thanks, I'd sort of worked that bit out, my fault for not being clear.
What I meant to ask was, "In which circumstance is JBlend initiated"?
I'd like to witness the before / after....
doesn't work
doesn't work
EDIT: forgot to close the app.
works fine now
Jblend in fullscreen not working.
I have an HTC HD2 Leo with latest rom. I got this mobile on wednesday and will play some java games. But when the java games open, the picture are som small so its imposibble to play them. I have changed 0 to 1 in registry, but no changes. Tried to restart my phone to, but no changes. Please help.
Your games are most likely made for QVGA (320x240) screens, so will only display on a little portion of the screen. You should check if they have a version for WVGA (800x480) screens.
thanks

i dont have these setting in my HTC p3400I... What changes need to be done for running the JAVA games in full screen.
im having this problem aswell tired to use the registry key and change it to 1 but didnt make a difference to the game i was trying to play
any ideas?
where can i find that setting ?
Hello i collect old phones like htc advantage and other winmo and nokia devices.
But the shift is still kinda expensive.
I have an oppurtunity to buy one for 100 euro.
Point is i like to play with those devices alot.
At the moment i am trying to get truevga and mods on the advantage.
But is the Shift still capable?
I mean 800mHz is quite underpowered. Will it play youtube at lets say 720p fullscreen?
I understand it isnt capable of full hd streamin.
And what about games.
i like to play older games anything from need for speed (up till underground so 1-6)
And emulators? especially n64 because its the heaviest one i am planning to use.
Its quite alot of money for such old device and on ebay i didnt find anything to compare the price with
so valuewise is it worth it? 100euro is like 115 dollar with todays course.
the device itself is practically unused but comes formatted so i have to install windows.
I do this alot on laptops and pcs. and i am also no stranger in flashing winmo and android so i dont expect to run into any problems if there is still support and i can find drivers and stufff
I hope some of my questions can be answered.
wow its really a low activity device
no one got any tips?
100 Euro is quite a good price. On eBay it's usually much more expensive.
One thing you have to keep in mind is the RAM size- you'll have to get a
214 pin 2GB to make Shift run nearly satisfying.
Like this one:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/2GB-DDR2-214...y-HTC-SHIFT-/190400263728?hash=item2c54bd7630
Unfortunately i have never found a 4GB RAM version.
Thx for reply
thats quite expensive for 2gb ram...
So can it run youtube...
i havent decided yet if i am gonna do it or not
it includes a dmg 01 gameboy.. so it makes it kinda tempting
i already have a broad collection of phones en pre tablet tablets
i will reply when i get it.
sooo i bought it.
Really nice device
didnt came with windows though
so i installed windows 7.
got the drivers working even with 5 year old threads here with dead links
Touchscreen is working
but wifi isnt. So i think the wifi was switched off in vista...
thats not my big issue it wasnt my plaaning to use the wifi because of the performance of this device.
So i will check that some other time.
What i do want to have solved is a bigger problem. I m trying to install some light games en emulators on there.
First up N64. Runs windowed. not great but playable but when i try to go fullscreen i get BSOD. 2times in a row and then windows wouldnt start so i had to run the startup repair. Now its working again. Just not in fullscreen...
Other problem is with retro city rampage this game isnt even 3d.
it seems to start but the moment it switches to fullscreen i get the BSOD instantly...
Is this a driver problem? i recall i have read somewhere that u shoudlnt update the intel gma driver but i could not find this post. and i dont know if i have done this or not i would need version numbers...
Maybe im 2years late ;P but i hope someone will know the answer.
in the meantime i have a GB DMG01 to play with and mod.
Is it such a legacy device that no one uses it anymore?
I have a Shift and I found Vista to be unusable compared to Ubuntu Hardy (8.04). I've heard better things about Win7 and even Win10, but at the end of the day, the machine has its hardware limits and at least for me, that precluded even Vista.
Hardy , through pof's magic, allows everything to run, even the 3G (if you have the SIM), and it's quite zippy. I don't game, but perhaps ubuntu (circa 2008) has enough games available. Of course, you could run Wine, but that can be a can of worms for certain MS software.
Though I run MS Word 97, HanDBase, and a couple of other MS apps without problem in Hardy.
Prolly best to stay away from heavy graphics. Maybe Leisure Suit Larry
Jake
I fixed the BSOD problem by reinstalling windows 7 and NOT installed the gpu driver update.
It runs like a breeze
GTA3 and vice city i can play on low settings but no lagg at al!
And the n64 emulator i get 60fps in fullscreen.
I would recommmend 7 to anyone with this device.
Only the wifi is not working because it was turned off in vista and i read its a hell of alot of work to turn it on without vista.
problem is i bought it without windows so i couldnt turn it on.
But its better for me saves alot off battery
This is pof's htc shift panel for Windows that controls wifi/bt/etc. I don't know if it works in Win7, but you can research to see if it's what you want before actually trying it out.

Hey man thx for the tip
will try this when i get home from work.
ill report later
Ok wow
i need some program called cygwin
if i try to open it i get cygwin1.dll is missing
so im working on it
i found the program wil install it tonite and report back
Excellent. I'll be glad to hear that it works.
Jake
Hmm cygwin installed without any problems.
But now it asks for cygioperm-0.dll when i try to launch it.
i need to install ioperm says the readme but it seems i cant find it...
This is some kind of addon right?
Huh, dunno what those files are. Here are the Vista drivers, etc:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzqfCViUrpr6UkVkY2lTLUIxSGs&usp=sharing
For Vista, the shagctrl program does wifi/bt/etc. you could try installing that and see if that gives you the missing .dlls/etc. It may run on its own, I just don't know. I have Vista on a partition, the shagctrl works, but I never use Vista/Windows.
Jake
shagctrl doesnt work in windows 7
only for resolution siwtch.
i got the hsect from this google drive page u gave me.
its same same download i found.
but this is in the readme.

============================================
To build from source:
LINUX with GTK libraries:
# make gtk
LINUX without GTK libraries:
# make nogtk
WINDOWS with GTK libraries:
# make win32gtk
WINDOWS without GTK libraries:
# make win32
WINDOWS NOTES:
The windows version needs CYGWIN (http://cygwin.com) with "ioperm" support.
Open a cygwin shell and run "ioperm -i" to install the ioperm.sys driver.
when i type ioperm-i it doesnt recognize it as a legal command...
i am gonna try it tonite if i connect it to the internet with cable.
But otherwise i think i skipped a step somewhere.... will let u know.
I just run windows for the games.
its a pretty capable device for its specs.
GTA3 without problems.
Carmageddon tdr 2000
n64
all runs perfect
If you can't rebuild it, I suppose you could get a Hardy 8.04.1 (no higher) livecd, repartition and dual boot with Hardy (with pof's shagctrl) and Windows.
I don't believe you can install pof's shag with a livecd only (pof calls for a reboot), though MAYBE, you could install shag and only switch on wifi/bt without a reboot, I dunno.
Hardy is certainly snappier than Windows, but your needs don't seem to match what Hardy can do. Though dual booting is always cool.
Jake
Haha XD that is an option indeed.
But if i switch wifi on once i wouldnt be able to turn it off in windows right?
I want to preserve battery power whenever is necessary.
When i installed cygwin i noticed i could choose any packages and addons tobe installed
maybe i reinstall cygwin first and i can find this ioperm addon
Once wifi was turned on, I think you could disable its driver in Windows in the systray.
Ok i wil look into that.
First i keep trying to find ioperm for cygwin and how to add it
now when i open hsect it says cygwinioperm1.dll missing not exactly but close.
I dont get the option when i reintall cygwin. Also there isnt really a uninstall button... not in control panel not in the root folder.
