Next Release - PCEngine16
I've been working on two projects and one of them is about to be ready.
It's PCEngine/TG16 Emulator.
It will support pretty much all games with sound....and it runs very fast even on G1.
This one should be ready before X-Mas.

Droid Support
Hi, cps2 and jarcade-lite now works on Droid.
For cps2, I've published new apk (cps2hd) to run natively on Android 2.0.
For Jarcade-lite, it's just another update.
For Jarcade, i plan to do an update later today or tomorrow.
====
After playing with it for a while, Droid isn't as bad as I initially thought...
I use 270 rotation option with d-pad..and it works pretty good.

Droid vs Passion
i actually deleted the previous post as it might not be a fair comparison at this point with "not-so-latest" firmware.
Anyway, here is my bottom line.
If you're in Verizon, and can wait, wait for Passion which will outperform Droid in many categories...
Wait till you can try both devices and make decision.
i'll post video to compare cps2 speed (fs level=0) on both devices.

Update - PLEASE READ!
After Android cps2 emulator, I pretty much stopped working on other projects.
Well...it's summer time...been busy with family...etc
Ok, first bad news...
I decided to suspend gp2x projects under debian/JTerm indefinitely and focus on Android side only.
JTerm has been withdrawn/unpublished from market already.
This is to avoid duplicate effort bringing on both debian and android project.
The debian/Jterm didn't bring enough people for me to keep pursuing and second, there are new android devices coming out but no root access. And even with root access+debian, people are struggling with package installation...etc.
Now, good news...i hope...
For those who purchased JTerm alrady, when they're available, I'll be giving out Jarcade which supports mame roms including neogeo and also the next emulator (not yet decided) after Jarcade for FREE!
I'm currently working on Jarcade and beta version should be ready in ~3 weeks and will get published to Android market after beta phase.

G1GP2x SNES Download
Hi, i haven't updated the public web site yet but for those who's following my blog, this is g1gp2x snes emulator.
Jrioni
=======================================
Please refer here for game compatibility list.
http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/SquidgeSNES
Please note that it doesn't support Mario RPG and Star Fox.
=======================================
Instruction
=======================================
Upgrade Jrioni Terminal to ver 1.6
1. Launch Jrioni Terminal and Boot Debian
2. Getting tar balls
cd /
wget http://jrioni.l4rge.com/g1/snes.tar
3. Extract tar balls
tar xvf snes.tar
4. Put snes rom files under /gp2x/snes/roms (either zip or smc format)
5. Launch snes
cd /gp2x/menu
Press track ball down + Enter
Launch SNES by pressing 9
5. select "Load ROM" by pressing L or DEL.
and again select games by pressing L or DEL
6. Press 0 to exit the game.
7. Go down and select the last menu to exit the emulator.
Done!
=======================================
Controls
=======================================
1: volume down
2: volume up
8: select
9: start
0: exit
t: transparency choose
e: up
x: down
s: left
d: right
w: up-left
r: up-right
z: down-left
c: down-right
o: L Trigger
p: R Trigger
DEL: B
L: A
,: X
Enter: Y
Note: By default, settings are optimized. You can try to change it but it probably won't help you much.
=======================================
Tip
=======================================
I've been working on fixing audio problem but wasn't able to completely close out all issues.
So, you might hear some "tick-tick" sound or sort of jerky audio stream...from some games.
And one more thing, if you find display isn't working for some games, please try to press "Y" to toggle transparency hack.
And for those who's having a trouble seeing a character on some games (eg. super metroid), try "t".
It basically enables you to select which transparency layer to enable or not.
During game, press T and select A, B, X, Y to toggle which layer to enable or disable.
It's tedious...but In this way, you'll at least go through the scene and can enable it back later.

G1Gp2x SNES
Please check out g1gp2x snes emulator on youtube!
Emulator itself is very stable...(=no crash)
Overall sound works great..but has a jerky sound problem on some games (still..working on it)
And I optimized (well...hacked) sound sampling to work best at 44Khz!
...so, sound should be very clear and bright.
Beta version should be ready early next week :)

HowToRoot + Debian Installation
====================================================================
Please follow this link if you're still confused about how to rooting your g1.
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Quick_Root#Install_JF.27s_ROM
Or
http://www.androidandme.com/2009/05/guides/beginners-guide-for-rooting-your-android-g1-to-install-cupcake/
====================================================================
And for easy debian package installation, please follow here.
http://www.androidfanatic.com/cms/community-forums.html?func=view&catid=9&id=2248
====================================================================
By the way, one step that I had to do differently is..
installer.sh
->
sh installer.sh
And also, I had to remove the first line in installer.sh
su ./fsrw
->
#su ./fsrw
You can download the modified installer.sh from here

As it doesn't support android 1.5, i can't really call it "beta" version.
so, i changed the title to pre-beta...

Android 1.5 - No tty!
Today, I upgraded my image from JFv1.42_RC33 to JFv1.51_CRB43-US and found out that android 1.5 kernel disabled tty device which I need for all of my applications.
I'm trying to sort out this issue with JF...otherwise, my package will only work with Android 1.1 kernel.
I'm now considering to switch to reading input device directly...bypassing SDL input device...

JTerm on Android Market
I've just published JTerm, Jrioni Terminal Emulator on android market.
This is to bypass android framework and support gp2x mode (direct kernel interface, no Java/JNI/Runtime lib…etc) for all emulators/gp2x apps.
To toggle between Android <-> Gp2x mode, you need to press track ball down + Enter.
(assuming track ball is set to ctrl key)
This is for beta-testers only for now.
(you can buy it but public version will have to wait till beta-phase is over)

G1 Volume
Ok...find a way to control volume with more levels.
Another thing is that some of sound problem is not audible through headset.
Speaker might be more sensitive to not-so-filtered-noise than Headset...

First Things First...
Ok...i decided to focus on game emulator first...
It'll be too much and too late to get the whole gp2x package out...
CPS2 emulator is actually at beta quality and can be released along with mini UI in couple weeks.
MAME/SNES will follow after....
mplayer+vnc video streaming will take some time...etc

Root Access
One thing to clarify...
In order to run this, you need a root access and debian installed on your G1.
This was the link that I followed...
http://www.androidfanatic.com/cms/community-forums.html?func=view&catid=9&id=2248
If you're serious about G1, get root access!

Thank YOU !!!
Thanks everyone for checking out my blog!
And special thanks to those who made a donation !!!
It truly humbles me when people donate their money in this recession time.
You'll be automatically included in my beta-tester mailing list.
I expect first beta version will be ready sometime next month.
I'll keep you updated!
