hopefully this tutorial will help fpsece be more fun/playable for everyone.
UPDATE: FPSEce configuration-imo this is one of the best set ups for the wing, but see what you come up with. a little tricky but here goes.
1ST to do this i utilize htc home and battery status plugins. i have been playing this emu overclocked to 299 mhz for periods of up to 2hrs. i do not condone this behavior! and don't even suggest it! but, you get the best gameplay out of the emu.
2ND, make sure all running apps are closed except fpsece,with your device in regular portrait mode with htc home on your today screen, open the keyboard on your wing, go to your programs tab on htc home and press the portrait to landscape flip button. if you you do not have that one activated take a sec and swap it out with one of the other buttons it should be worth it. after this your screen will look funny cause your keyboard is out and your screen has flipped back to portrait orientation.perfect!
3RD, navigate to fpsece and open. go to options/misc/display/landscape left.
4Th, go back into options and choose the joypad/assign buttons. now turn the device so you are looking at the keyboard normally. these are my keymaps but feel free to do your own! PAGE UP-TRIANGLE PAGE DOWN-X ARROW LEFT-SQUQRE ARROW RIGHT-CIRCLE A-LEFT S-UP D-RIGHT Z-DOWN Q-L1 W-L2 O-R1 P-R2 START-SPACEBAR SELECT-TAB MENU- CENTER OF DIRECTIONAL PAD on the screen portion of the wing. finally hit ok!
5TH hit the start tab, then iso and finally navigate to your game WHICH SHOULD BE IN ISOS FOLDER ON YOUR STORAGE CARD. this way you can keep many games on your storage card!
pocket iso guide- http://pdai.org/michu/fpsece/ldrguide.html
this will get your game file sizes way down and your memory card less cramped as well as more games will be compatible with fpsece.

my settings are on usa...recompiler...arm v5...GDI...fast boot...but these may or may not be the best. i am still learning the ideal options myself. i think vga is supposed to be the best/fastest but it depends on the type of device. also i know on some games, gran turismo for example,that adjusting the frame skip number does help speed the game. example: if you are getting5 fps set to 1 on options this will bump it up closer to ten. if you have 12 fps bump up to 2 this may get you closer to 20 fps and so on.

Setup your controller settings. Bind a key to "menu." Then press that key during gameplay, tap options, then adjust the frames from there.
Ok, i have a HTC Heremes, but i thought i'd just ask here, instead of opening a new thread in Hermes section. I get stuck at FPSece screen, no matter how i set up the options, nothing happens. I loaded ps1 bios. And i'm trying to find a tutorial or guide, but can't find any, all of them are mostly about ripping. Any ideas?
try reading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369855&page=8 . also try the link in my sig!
Yea i got a question or 2.
All the ps1 ios' are like 25mb +
How am i susposed to put them on the phone since the phone dont have that much memory, and i cant reach my memorycard through activsync,
also i have dialup *errgg* and downloading iso' that big is a little impossible for my internet connection, is there a site to find iso's 25mb and smaller?
OK, I downloaded the software to play the games but I don't know where to get the games from. People have said they would be around 25mb, but I can only find ones for 350mb+. Please help. I have a Touch Pro 2
Wow, way to raise a thread from the bottom of the sea there...and about a completely different device too boot. Anyways, the games are not going to be 25MB, if they are then they are either demos or homebrew stuff. Most PSX ISOs are AT LEAST 350MB, but can go as large as a CD, IE 680MB or so. You can try to compress these down using that tool in the first post, albeit you will have to search around for it since the original creators website is not around anymore.
Ok, I've spent forever and a day looking this stuff up....so I have everything I need. Now if someone could walk we through getting my isos's to show up in the isos file that would be great! Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Did you actually download the ISO's? And if you did, you make an ISO folder on your storage card and then transfer the ISO to it.
forgive me if this post is in the wrong section - i'm new to this forum
i've got a problem with my htc p4350 (herald) when using fpsece
i can start fpsece, but when i try to load a .iso file, the screen turns black for about 10 seconds, and after that it just returns to the home screen
i cannot reach any options screen or etc.
i got the right bios copied and trued 3 different files to load
maybe these are just the wrong files?
(in that case, which files should i try, and where can i get these?)
thanx in advance

Initially accidently posted this in the Diamond forum...
Happy Holidays.
After reading a post here or in another forum I stumbled across a program called BARCORAMA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368798
Its a program that lets you scan UPC barcodes with your camera and then goes out to the internet to let you find the lowest price online for that item...already saved me quite a bit...and made shopping feel sortof fun for once...fealt like a spy..LOL
Works Awesome on my touch Pro...strangely seems to work better when I zoom to 2x and take the picture than when im in close

I got the app working great on a touch pro.
Except I changed the default to pop open skyfire for the browser, and also piped it into Google shopping search engine, rather than just google. B/c in shopping it already shows the prices and places to buy.
Neat app! Thanks. Minor suggestion, offer the ability to put a path for the images and / or a way to name it when you shoot the UPC.

open the app, go into settings and hit the right arrow until you see the google address. then replace the word "search" with "products"
EDIT: works well. i zapped every item on my desk at work and it found them all.

LOL...no, sorry for the misunder standing. I was trying to add credability to the other guys post of pointing it to google shop instead of just google. I wanted to just put +1 as in I am also wanting this, but you have to have 10 characters to make a post.
mine is not working everything i scan says no barcode i have the pro and question what is it suppose 2 say for program 2 run
does anybody have an idea of why its not working
Zoom in to 2.0 on the camera and try again.
still not working do i have 2 upgrade the rom 2 use this program
is there a cab file for this? or how do install this to my phone? just use sync and drag and drop it into my program files??
yeah I found Standing further away from the barcode and doing a 2.0 Zoom really helped...I make the barcode fill the screen and make sure its sharply focused before taking the picture...
...In terms of how to install...i created a folder called Shopping in my Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder and dropped the EXE file in there...You will then see the folder in your Windows/Programs area....i put it in its own folder because it saves each barcode where the program is installed and i didnt want them in my programs menu.
Yeahh....I found a new way to kill time and kill my battery...lol
I've run out of things to scan around the house.
I now know the best prices of everything in my work place...lol
I even depressed a few when I showed them better prices......
Walmart thinks I'm a spy...lol....had to turn of the sounds while taking pictures of barcodes....Security was confused too.....
This really is an achievement! Thanks to the creator of Barcorama.....
To change to shopping in google
The above poster is right, just change search, in the http string to product and that's it. Then it shows you a listing of prices and locations, pretty slick.
As for the person not getting it to work, it won't work if you're megapixels is set to 3MP, I dropped mine down to 1MP and that did it for me.

Hey noellenchris, don't forget all your cd's and coffee table books, or IT books....
I even scanned a can of Progresso soup and it found it. Crazy.

Keep your phone upright when you take the picture. I found if I turned the phone sideways and took the picture, it would not find the barcode. Keep the phone straight up and down when you take the pic.
I changed my camera to take a picture on Touch instead of Touch and Press. Right after it autofocuses, it'll take the picture. Getting much better results this way since when I would use Touch and Press, when I would press to take the picture, my hand would move.
So you say you want a cup of Joe, or a MilkShake, or some other secret code word for a lil’ something in your PayPal account for your work, creativity and energy? Hey, this NEWBIE is all for it – hell, I’m glad to donate; but I be needed some help!
Where I’m at – right now, the Midwest USA, Omaha Nebraska to be specific. Where I’m at with my phone / HH device – it is a work issued HTC Touch Pro. I’ve had it about 3 months now, Alltel is my carrier and it came with a CRAP boring, dull grey Theme that can’t be changed, allegedly, when I’m using the Touch Flo3D.
Work offers several carriers; Verizon guys with the same phone have a much cooler “stock” theme – and oh sure, I can mess with the Today setting and get some goop red called Guava Bubbles to linger above and below in the bands, but mostly, it really sucks. Plus, the damn thing is slow – I hit my 4 code password and 1 out of 4 times the damn thing says I have the wrong PW – no I don’t you beyotch, I KNOW my password. Weather? I can UbitchInStein in Upper Mongolia but not the town I grew up in, Boulder Colorado, WTF is up with that?
I know just enough about technology to be dangerous – I can find the ROM versions and all that stuff, navigate config files a little, copy files using Active Sync and so on – and hey, my RingTones rock (http://sites.google.com/site/bcwsite4now/Home/filecabine) I can strip the hell out of a DVD, edit using Adobe Premier Elements and you might laugh your ass off if you know the movie scenes.
But for the life of me I can’t figure out this deal I downloaded called Manila Editor from Sascha Lange and Dimitry (you guys sound like Russian mob, please don’t kill me) - and now I’m reading this Manila Customizer - Customize Clocks, Icons, Sliders etc [1 Nov] New Version thread from Gramps or Grumps or the Gimp from Pulp Fiction (see Ringtone reference) above and it starts to look like I am getting close – Clocks, Icons, Sliders – hmm, that’s what I want, and really cool ones!!
So I DL and UZ a bunch of stuff from some thread and now I have some cool looking graphics in a bunch of folders on my PC that look like they work together in a TouchFlo 3D setting, but I have no friggin idea how to get them from my hard drive to my phone without brickin’ the damn phone; remember, work issue phone. {http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2891202#post2891202}
Plus, over at PPC Geeks or some other board, they were all hot on some TouchFlo 3D speeder upper program and steps with a new Stock Watcher Icon using the 3G network and a better Weather app; so I PM a dude over there about 45 days ago and he tells me, “yo, newbie, read a bunch and then PM me back.”
Dude, I have 3 kids, all under 6 and a wife who likes me to do dishes once in awhile, read a bunch of stuff on Google and THEN ask for help? No thanks, I’d rather pay your arse. So, the end of my story goes like this – who wants to help me and what is your price?
Can I make my own icons, sliders and clock graphics using PhotoShop or some other program? If so, what sizes should I aim for in each at what resolution?
How do I get all the cool **** on my PC now to my phone? Say I wanted to pick one of the themes, I think, like Panosha Shine 2.2 on my phone and ditch Mister Alltel BoreMeToFngTearsGrey?
What can I do to speed this ***** up? Add the Stock Application, and make the Weather App a little bit more relevant to my small Midwest World?
My dream phone, and your personal challenge: A faster HTC Touch Pro with a rocking U2 theme in black, red and grey or white that snags icons from the album All That You Can’t Leave Behind or How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb and a cool clock that uses the font from the album War circa 1982 – hey, I’m old. It will have this much rumored, never seen by me improved Weather App and this Stock Market app so I can watch my 401K tank to 187K 24/7.
If someone can make all that happen, Monster Size Milkshakes and Jumbo Coffee all around!
Thanx for reading my rant.
No PMs plz – email [email protected]
87 Views, not 1 response or Email?
Is there a better site for folks like me -- was the potential for milkshakes and joe offensive?
I thought it was funny; maybe it wasn't? And, no comments on the Pulp Fiction ringtones??
Someone help me with the nuances of a programmer's onlline community -- there is talent out here galore; maybe I'm just 'lookin' for love in all the wrong places' -- figure of speech only.
In the immortal words of Jim Rome, Newbie is out!
I think you should try NRG's Energy ROM. It's already customized with a slew of tweaks and additional software. In addition to that you can use Showaco's BBExtreme theme for TF3D2. It's gonna take SOME reading to learn about your device so you don't brick it...and if that's gonna be a problem then I'll tell ya like I told my dad.....just get an iPhone. They're already setup outta the box with very little understanding required
1) Flash HardSPL to your device. Only have to do this once.
2) Flash EnergyROM 04052009 version. Link is on 1st page of his thread. I always flash from the sd card...safer, easier, faster, more portable. Simply plug your device into computer with usb cable and select disk drive. Copy 'RAPHIMG.nbh' to the root of storage card. Make a backup of everything. Then:
Hold down the Volume Down key while u press and release the reset button. Follow directions on the screen. After the screen appears for you to tap and align the screen, Hard Reset (Hold Vol down + Center button, then press and release reset button)
3) Copy BBExtreme cab to your storage card and click it to install. Soft reset, and you're done.
I'm afraid others are just as busy as you. I have 5 week-old twins at home and I read these forums while holding a bottle in their mouths. It's highly unlikely that anyone is going to spend hours to customize your device for you, and then provide customer service for the things that don't work exactly as they should. It takes time to learn these devices, I've been at it for over 5 years and still consider myself a noob. Good luck

Don't flash any gsm rom to a cdma device (Alltel) you will brick it. you might want to try ppcgeeks for your phone http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=68
Thanks man, forgot Alltel was CDMA.
modding your phone takes a fair amount of reading and research. i understand that you're busy but theres not much other than that we can tell you. i started out http://blownfuze.org/ there and read pretty much the whole page before i even started. And even with just that website i wasnt satisfied.
spend some time reading that website, get an idea of what on there you like, and start from there. install a ROM (i suggest EnergyROM) and go from there. it takes a lot of reading before you know what you're doing. and dont ever assume you know how to fix something, its safer to look it up here than to try it. liek if you dont know how to install a ROM, theres a beginners guide. dont just try stuff. thats how you brick your phone.
you can change the stock theme i have an altell TP and i changed the TF3D theme a couple times- do a search for touch pro themes there was a thread with a bunch of them find one you like and you can load it with a program called Diamond TF3D Config- there are a lot of good free themes but probably not one just what you described
looks like you already found some themes i think they came in a zip when i did mine, put them on your phone not in a folder just the first menu then load with the program from above, just search and you will find that program
Installing a theme won't brick your phone, but it's a good idea to back everything up prior to messing with manila. Try out fuzeberry or onyx or any of the themes listed here or in the Diamond themes forum. Since it's a work phone, flashing roms may not be such a great idea. Dear lord, if you do, DO NOT FLASH ENERGY ROM!!!!! As mentioned above, it will brick your phone. Go over to geeks and try out Mighty Rom or Jughead rom or whatever catches your fancy.
You might look up giannis86 here. He's got a ton of really cool icons, and he's done some custom jobs for folks. Maybe he'll work 4 food. Anyway, I laughed my ass off.

Graphic size?
Resolution?
Best file format? JPG?
Do I need an up and down state, similar to a rollover on a web-nav button? (Ohhhh, the newbie knows rollover up-state -- maybe he's more than just a RingTone guy)
Thanks again!

Yeah, you can make your own icons. Like I said before, look up giannis86, and in his profile look up all the threads he started. Grab one of his icon packs, and look at the files with manila editor. You'll be able to figure out the correct sizes and resolutions.

This addon for photo shop will allow you to edit/save png files.
CFC GUI (you'll have to search on here for it). Will let you get the graphics files out of the manila files and also put them back in after editing.
As far as sizes, I usually just open one of the files up check the size and then open a new file and set the canvas that size. They are all different sizes depending on what icon your editing.

Newbie here-- I'll add my Congrats on the Twins.
Our twins turn 6 Thursday the 16th ; best 6 years of my life; just about to "graduate" from Kindergarten. Carson is our boy, Olivia the girl -- she won the "lose the first tooth" contest today.
My2 cents on twins -- get them sleeping and eating on the same schedule -- its easy after that!
Enjoy.
Ok, so I have been around here a couple months silently eating up all the great info posted on this site. I have flashed my fair share of custom ROMs and have found one that I am comfortable with. So now I need to load up my TP with the best "goodies" I can find. Sure I can email, text, surf, dial...but I need MORE! Looking for cool apps that will help me get my moneys worth out of the device (and amaze my jealous friends). A couple fun ones that I have found include security apps, torch , sms bombers, shazam etc.. Any suggestions, .cabs and/or links for cool/fun apps would be greatly appreciated. Paid or freeware.
Sorry if this has been posted and I am sure there are individual threads for these apps but my patience is limited to 20 pages of forum digging and custom search phrases. I did find many "must have apps" threads but all seem to be for the android.
This would be good for me since I am a new Raphael user too.
Specifically if there is an alternative email client app that uses a different UI than the standard Outlook, meaning not ProfiMail or FlexMail
you can't go wrong with hdWobble, serach it
Warcraft 2 will make you the centre of attention.
Seriously look for it. It looks great and unlike many of the other 'impressive' ports, it is really fun and playable! I find fps games are a pain to conrol on this type of device.
Diamond hologram is really cool to. It uses the accelerometer to do a 3d effect on the screen.
Search these things up
The last couple of days I have been playing with PockeTwit. Cool little app. to play on Twitter.
Any emulator. especially the FPSECE playstation emulator, maybe mID, google maps?? WMwifirouter so they can use their ipod touchs to surf the web off your phone, youtube player,htorchflashlight...too many to name really.

Ah yes, I forgot to mention emulators like this one and PicoDrive works well for me to emulate Genesis ROMs. I played several games all the way through, ppl go nuts over Sonic, etc. So many great games on the system.
Many emulators I find work well enough to show off, but when it comes to quality of play they are limited. For example, without mapping of keyboard, using an "on screen" controller paddle, you are unable to simultaneously hit 2 "buttons" at once, due to the limitations of the resistive touch screen (no multi-touch). So for Mario turning mid-jump, forget it. To have the keyboard slid open while playing these emulators typically results in terrible performance, only a few ppl with a select combination of settings and ROM and d3d drivers managed to make it run reasonably with keyboard open.
im sorry mate but whoever told you that resistive screens dont support multitouch lied to you in the face.
there is multitouch out ther it just is in proper use by every one , take a look at fuzemobility and search there . there is an article on it along with a playstation controler completely mapped out to use multitouches ,no lie ! . the idea behind it is when you touch two places the place the exact same distance from both of them is registered, so with good placement and good mapping its possible :]
Slide to unlock has to be the best app for this phone hands Down..
I cant stand the basic winmoble unlock feature this one gives you the iphone slide to unlock so far works great for me..

go to right side, it also has a link to the latest xda thread
Personally I like the netflix account one along with the getsportz. I have also played with WebTV and a few bartending apps. I would also like to mention RSSHub and BeejiveIM as nice apps... I dont use facebook but there are a lot of social netowkring apps to show off if you do use them.
As for showing off... I personally like TF3D2... with the people tab and the stock tab!!! Apple has nothing on us with those two tabs.
And if you liek games there a thread with a super and mega pack of games that you can get and it will install a ton fo games to play with.

Impressive doesnt always mean eye-candy....
Have them bring along their laptops and whip out WMWifiRouter.
People are always impressed when I whip out iGo with TTS enabled.
Skyfire with MS Silverlight 2 support is pretty friggin awesome considering it has (and is) taking linux programmers months to get going on their systems.
MS Voice command is another...tell your phone to play music by tracks and artists and have it read aloud text messages. Not availible on the iphone until just recently I believe.
Any capacitive programs (touchlockpro and how you can program a personal "touch" combination to unlock your phone also gscroll
Incallrecording...
Software that will text you with the SIM card information and exact (by GPS) location of your phone in the event it is stolen and another sim card is placed in it..
The list goes on and on...but the best thing I like is that it makes calls!! I say WOW everytime it rings!!!

I've explained it before, but that's NOT multitouch.
Name: Road Rage
This is my first App for Windows Phone 7 (or any system actually). It is a simple to use program to tell those other drivers what you think! This small and quick loading program presents you with 9 words to display on your screen in big bold letters. Sayings included:
Wait!
Move!
Jerk!
Idiot!
Blinker!
Faster!
Slower!
My Bad!
Sorry!
The other advantage is they all have a 'mirror' mode, so other drivers can read the messages in their rear view mirrors! This was harder to do then just write the characters of the message backwards!
Takes advantage of the users selected theme as well. It is also very small and takes up little storage space. Screenshots of main screen and one of the mirror messages is attached below.
*download*
It is available for free, ad supported, on the Windows Phone 7 Market Place. Either search for 'Road Rage' on the Marketplace or click the following link (should launch Zune software): Get 'Road Rage'
*download*
I originally had a few more harsh words in the program, but it was rejected by Microsoft for excessive use of adult language. It took several tries to get it approved. I originally had the words "ASS" and "****er" and was rejected, so I tried to go all Battlestar Galactica and substitute "Fracker!", but it was still rejected. So I then removed them and went with "Jerk!" and "Idiot!". I also predict that this program will be emulated/copied onto the iPhone and Android system by somebody else fairly soon, but I did it first!
If there is enough demand I will update the program to allow users to create their own messages and save them to the menu for quick easy selection, to by-pass Microsofts explicit language policy.
*WARNING* Operating a portable electronic device while driving is dangerous and is probably illegal in your area, and probably pretty stupid too. Use at your own risk!
Nice app but my road rage includes much harsher words and phrases 0
Hmm... Have you ever tried a finger? Much more effective and no ads at all LOL
P.S. BTW, do you really think that someone is able to see a handset's screen at the rear-view mirror??? ;-/

Yes, they are, we tested it. That is why the messages are short, so they can take the full screen. The text will be larger then US license plate lettering on any screen bigger then 3.5 inches. And it has more contrast then most license plate color combination's, so it should be no problem at all for most people and a decent distance away.
maybe you can made a small area where we can type a word(short to respect te full screen)
You must make an Android version
What if you have tinted windows ? Also, holding UP the phone like that while driving is kind of dangerous. The effort versus affect isn't worth the trouble. Try that in parts of California and you'll be wearing your WP7 up your arse, get shot at, or laughed at such a feeble minded display of cowardice. Better to be a defensive driver to avoid an accident.
I don't see anything that comes in handy! Nice effort mate but i still prefer my mouth and my finger.. it's much faster than Unlock your phone, open app and show it to the driver!
still, niceeee XD
I would pay a dollar to show my own text in this program
