It's like asking if you can play XBox 360 games on the PS3. No. Totally different platforms.
Have fun!
And maybe you can give me a link where I can find some touch screen games on this mobile, and maybe you know what game have best quality game?

I can play playstation one games on my xbox original which has been running linux for about 2 years
Its just a matter of someone creating an iphone "emulator" or stack for use on windows ce devices.
Not 100% impossible, but can't yet
you got PM!

Then there's the issue of the multi-touch capable capacitive screen on the iPhone, vs. the resistive one-tough-at-a-time screen on windows mobile phones. It would very difficult to emulate some of those games on windows mobile w/o the multi-touch, IMHO.

Actually it is 100% impossible, as the Hardware in the Raphel is no where close to the same [required] hardware in the iPhone.
Your "example" is **** too. Your Xbox is no longer an Xbox, it's an underpowered computer. You changed the complete operating system on it.
It would be nice but not possible... yet?

Stating the Xbox is not an xbox is very wrong.
It is still an xbox, but with th bios modified to include 2 bootloaders.
If I put a game in the drive, from boot, holding the power button it launches the game, and believe it or not, plays perfectly. Microsoft use XEX executable files, which are a derivation of c++. The only way to run these titles, sucessfully - I'm not talking about ****ty emulators that can run halo 1 in debug mode, like the only working pc emulator for the xbox original can do, is when the primary bootloader calls the kernel to interpret them on the xbox. If I had an underpowered computer, and not an xbox, this would not work, would it buddy!?! Because I would be using a ****ty Emulator, and the only x86 compatable emulator only plays halo 1 in debug mode at a maximum of 17frames per second.
Your argument makes no sense. My xbox is still an xbox which launches homebrew code to allow linux to run.
I also have a 360 doing exactly the same, but that is far from an underpowered pc when running ubuntu using the king kong exploit Here is that
Thats funny, Does that mean, that according to you, everytime I launch Haret on my raphael to boot android, my raphael becomes something other than a phone, cause im sure i can still call, text and surf on it....
Also - The Raphael does indeed have multitouch - not the screen, no, But the touch sensitive scroll does indeed have multitouch, so mapping an interface around that wouldn't be that difficult
Why not test it yourself
I wasnt stating everything would work, it wouldn't because of the hardware, i'll agree with you there.... but an emulator would allow certain things to run. Everything released for the iphone does not max out system resources on them. Don't you think that would be stupid?
http://www.tuaw.com/2009/08/03/microsoft-how-to-port-iphone-apps-to-windows-mobile/
That's interesting. Does this maybe mean that we will have those games on wm? It would be very nice...
Basically this allows you to run homebrew on PS3. It has been released for other Android devices and even a release is coming for a TI calculator. I was seeing if any of the great devs here could get this to work on the HTC vogue? Here is some more info http://kakaroto.homelinux.net/tag/psfreedom/
Also, this is how it works on Nexus One if it might help someone port it
http://dukio.com/tutorials/psgroove-htc-google-nexus.html
I too would love for someone to look into this. I'll help any way I can!
i would also love this
please someone atleast look into it

this guy has the right idea, i mean modern warfare 2's single player is totally worth ignoring the multiplayer for.
and resident evil 5's AI is way better than playing with a friend
sarcasm generously implied.
So any thoughts if this can be done? I haven't seen any of the devs say anything, but of course they might not have ps3 units.

if its anything like the playstation emulator as far as for performance, we just dont have the specs to run it even with the GPU, and CPU overclocked. That playstation emulator still was unplayable i expect the same result

This is not an emulator, it's just an edited android boot that sets the device as a usb hub
Can someone put the files from the hd2 on their vogue and follow the directions listed

Just tried it and it didn't work... not surprising considering its for a totally different piece of hardware
Now that HD2 code is out, couldn't someone port it to Vogue? seems like it wouldn't be that hard
PSFreedom has also been ported to the Droid Compiled against 2.6.32 kernel
i dont know how easy it would be but im assuming with more and more droid devices being ported to someone will make a vogue port hopefully
you do not need 3.42 to continue playing online. There are several proxy servers you can run on your windows machine that will let your ps3 continue to work online reporting to psn that you have 3.42 even tho your only on 3.41.
This only works because the only thing 3.42 did was fix psfreedom so there is no real reason to have it.
I was reading up on this a little bit. From what I see for other phones, it seems like you need to flash your rom to PSGROOVE everytime you want to use it to play a game? Is that right?
If so, can the phone still work as a phone in the meantime?
i think as long as the kernel makes the usb device look like a hub then the rest is scripts i could be wrong though
if thats the case it would only need 1 flash, but i believe i read somewhere you loose usb mass storage capability something like that
some phones i think do have a rom dedicated for just PSFREEDOM
eitherway i would still use it and run a seperate copy of android from the SD when i wanted to play the ps3
the ones i've been looking at they arn't flashing, they are temporarily booting from a new image (using adb) that has insmod enabled and working so they can load the usb module and change the usb port on the phone to register as a hub instead. I havn't tried it myself yet but I do know we have insmod already enabled... or at least the command is there so we might not need that step.
Sony seems to be right ontop of everything tho, closing down things as they are discovered.
I'm looking for an answer to this question and can't seem to find it anywhere. As we know, stock rooted is limited to two touch points. I'm told the iPad supports 10. I would love to have just 3-4 TBH. Everywhere I look, I get differing answers. Some say the limitation is hardware. Some say it's a minor software thing. Some say it's at the kernel level. If I run CM7 or HC or Nookie Froyo do I get more than two touch points? Would I need to flash a new kernel? I'm running some gaming emulators and can't press A, B, Start and Select at the same time and it's killing me. Just 3-4 touchpoints would vastly improve my quality of life at this point.

I am sure other, more knowledgeable devs will have some input, but I will drop what i have here from personal work.
From reading the specs, we have a chip that SHOULD support up to 4 unique touch points. What we have at the software level however, is a very confusing driver that was modded by B&N, and does not seem to support more than 2. For a while, i worked on modding the driver, but could never get more than 2 points. I also used other drivers, that in theory should have worked, but would not seem to register any touches (its rather hard using a nook with no touchscreen).
Now, i don't want to say its impossible, unless it can be shown that the hardware itself is in some way lacking. The touchscreen support seems to be only limited at the kernel level, and a well written driver SHOULD support it. When we will see it though, is a mystery.
Easier would be just to buy a cheap used wiimote and a "classic controller" (get a nyko one for $10 at gamestop.)
$20 and you got yourself a portable gaming machine. It really is worth the cash to have a controller for all of those emulators. Hell, you could probably get away with just the Wiimote if you're just playing Nes/Gameboy.
Edit: Looking at amazon there are a lot of choice combinations for under $30 with shipping included. Including a Nyko Wireless Wii Classic Controller for $26 open box.
I realize I'm not addressing the touch point question but wouldn't it really make life easier to just get a Wiimote? I mean, if emulators are your thing, its hard to beat using an actual controller.

Yeah, that would definitely work, but then it's just one more thing I have to carry around. Then I have to worry about propping the screen up and the screen falling over when I'm using it, etc, etc... I just wanna kick back on the couch and play NBA Jam. But I have to hold a direction button, turbo and shoot all at the same time to pull off the classic dunks which obviously isn't possible with only two touches. I was just curious a) where the limitation is (hardware, Eclair, kernel, etc...) and b) is there another ROM out there that fixes it.
If it's an Eclair issue, then I'm more than happy to burn Nookie Froyo to an SD card and boot it when I wanna get my game on. If it's a hardware issue, then I'm SOL of course and if it's a kernel issue, there may be a potential fix somewhere. I had just looked and hadn't found any definitive answer. I'm not a dev so I have no clue where to even start. It would just be nice to have more than two touches.
Oh I see, sorry =(. Truth be told you'll probably just have to live without that game when on the go... I think all of the roms are going to have the same issues though, as it's my understanding they all started with the base B&N kernel and built it up.
And I know what you mean, it can be a pain to carry that stuff around if your job or life don't support it. I work in the school system so I can easily throw the stuff in my backpack for breaks. =\
Edit: I don't know what your uses of the Nook Color are, but for around a $100 you can get a used PSP that can support emulators and is very pocket friendly.

As i had just mentioned, it is Kernel based, and not limited to any one rom. Assuming a driver can be made, it SHOULD bring multi touch to EVERY rom...

That answers my question. Just not the answer I wanted. Writing an app is stretching my skills. Screwing with the kernel is something I do not have the abilities to do.
Hello folks,
I've recently bought the Sony Xperia Z1 and I'm overloaded with questions, I'm trying to figure out a lot myself, but sometimes I need help A friend told me XDA was the place to be, so here I am.
As the title says, I'm wondering if there is some sort of a PS2 emulotar available, I've had the for gameboy advance etc, but now that I've gotten one of the better phones, I wondered if I could get better games aswell
I've seen people play FFX and GTA 3 and many other games. But couldn't figure out how they did it.
Any hints?
greetings
I'm not aware of any current PS2 emulator, i may be proved wrong. (google playstation emulators for android) you do have FPse for android though.
but for GTA and FFX, look in the play stores for games, you have GTA vice city and GTA.

Syncing with Ps3 to Z1 is so that you can connect with your online Ps3 friends, or get updated with some of your online ps3 games (scores, level, etc)... there are a few apps that you can install to do that like MYNBA2k13... etc...

You can't emulate PS2 games in Z1. PS2 is a very complex console and even Snapdragon 800 can't handle it. You remember PCSX2 - A PS2 emulator for PC? It's in development stages for almost 10 years and haven't seen a final release until now. The development team behind PCSX2 claims that, PS2 is a vey complex console to emulate compared to that of PSOne as many have of the hardware features have to be emulated in real time which is currently not stable and that's why. Though being in development for 10 years, PCSX2 doesn't support ALL PS2 games (80% will work) either. From above you can guess for android. In order to emulate PS2 games in android, it needs a far more powerful processor than S800 and gigs of memory which might seem impossible as of now. Even if the hardware in our Smartphones matches PS2 in the near future, writing an emulator though is very much of a hassle and will be full of bugs rendering the emulator useless. Guess the emulator era are over for Android with PSOne, period.
Alright, thanks both for the clarifications. I'll try the app.
Cheers!

Basically have been looking for a few weeks now. I am looking for something to replace my appleTV3, since 1. It is not jailbreakable, and 2. I have shifted from apple phones to android.
Now here is what I am looking for.
1: I would like a device that is powerful enough to run emulator's such as FPSE and N64...and runs well and allow use of wireless DS3
2: I would like to run XBMC
3: I want to mirror mine, or my wife's android (Galaxy S4, Note 3).....or at least be able to sling pictures and videos to it.
4. This may or may not be a deal breaker, but would really like to use my phone to control it. If not remote would be ok.
5. .MKV 1080p stream from something like an external hard drive.
There are so many devices out there, that I feel like there are to many choices that could go wrong, expecially with support on devices. But also would like the device to be powerful enough, but still fit within my budget. Ouya is the last thing I was looking at, but not sure how much I could accomplish that I am after, especially knowing that raspberry pi devices can be stronger. But weaker on gaming aspect.
Thanks for any feedback, pos or neg. My budget is $100, but I may be able to stretch (a little).

1. Not sure if the Pi is powerful enough to run emulators...
2. XBMC runs pretty good on the Pi with more lightweight skins.
3. Works pretty good with UPnP enabled on the Pi.

5. I stream mkv 1080p both on my networ and from external hd. Even sizes up to and over 20 gb.

I'm using one of my 3 Pi's as a raspbmc server. It works with my TV remote and my phone as a remote. Raspbmc is IMO the best of the XBMC OS choices for the Pi. You will not be able to run FPSE and N64 or other emulators on Raspbmc however because it does not have an OS shell, it just has the XBMC interface and you can ssh into it with putty from another computer.
I will warn you however that if you plan to use netflix on it you will need to use a streaming service from your PC. I am using PlayOn to give Netflix/Hulu and 80 or so other channels to my Raspbmc server. Netflix does not run without this on the Pi because lack of Silverlight. If you have any other questions post here and I'll try to answer them.

Pi runs emulators very well however you won't be able to do emulators on the same Pi as your Raspbmc server. You could buy a second Pi and install Raspbian on it with MAME and whatever other emulators you like. My avatar is a picture of two of my Pi's in a Pibow case with PiGlow boards.

I think you would be better off getting an android HTPC. There are android apps that will do everything you want and you'll get better performance than the Pi can offer.
1) I doubt the Pi is powerful enough to emulate with acceptable gameplay. Android has a dualshock controller app called Sixaxis Controller that probably does what you want but it isn't free.
2) There is an XBMC build available for Android.
3) Miracast has been including in android since 4.2. There are other ways to share pictures and videos to android as well.
4) There is a XBMC remote control app and you can use miracast for screen mirroring.
5) XBMC has you covered.
There are tons of hardware options available, I suggest looking through the forums and seeing what some of the more popular options are.
That's where I have been struggling is finding a popular device. Forums haven't been overly helpful but I am wondering if I'm looking in the wrong places.

Well you're searching for something cheap, powerful and well supported. Those things usually don't go hand in hand. You can try building a HTPC out of low end hardware with integrated GPU, that way you can have a full x86 operating system.
Hmmm.. That's a fair point. Ok. So if I were to do the 2 Raspberry pi, which model would be recommended?

Not to be a jerk, but it doesn't appear you have done much research. I suspect the help you have been given here is more help than you have given yourself
In any case, hopefully my advice proves somewhat useful. From my understanding, if you do decide to go with a raspberry pi you won't have to buy 2 of them. Just use NOOBS (New Out Of Box Software) and you can have multiple operating systems on one sd card.
http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads
I recommend getting the Model B since it has 512MB of RAM vs 256MB in the Model A. Also it has the ethernet port and dual USB populated on the PCB.
http://downloads.element14.com/raspberryPi1.html
Worse case scenario, the Pi is great for XBMC even if you find it can't do the emulation you want. Another device you may want to consider is the BeagleBone Black.
http://beagleboard.org/Products/BeagleBone%20Black

Not to be a jerk, but it doesn't appear you have done much research. I suspect the help you have been given here is more help than you have given yourself
In any case, hopefully my advice proves somewhat useful. From my understanding, if you do decide to go with a raspberry pi you won't have to buy 2 of them. Just use NOOBS (New Out Of Box Software) and you can have multiple operating systems on one sd card.

I recommend getting the Model B since it has 512MB of RAM vs 256MB in the Model A. Also it has the ethernet port and dual USB populated on the PCB.

Worse case scenario, the Pi is great for XBMC even if you find it can't do the emulation you want. Another device you may want to consider is the BeagleBone Black.

JK, no I did a lot of research, but basically I came to the forum as a last resort, knowing the answer already, that at this point Pi is too weak.
But, I did find an alternate solution that worked wonderfully, hence my lack of paying attention to the boards. I had an old laptop that I had forgotten about. Reloaded windows 7, placed XBMC, emulators, PS3 controller, voila.....connect via HDMI, instant HTPC.
Thanks for the input though. I greatly appreciate it. I am going to get a Pi thought, because it has other uses.
