Yes, I removed the simple version before installing it. ...I think the problem is installing to the SD card ...

hmm.. thanks minamoto-kun, i dont know what wrong with my phone.. but installing on C drive also not work

EDIT : problem about installing solved. it is because the the file isn't complete at first downlod.. when i tried to redownlod. it solved.. thanks xsacha and minamoto-kun

EDIT2: ppsspp still won't launch crash after black screen

Breaks down upon entering the EMU?...or the game?...If the game, then what?

[bose_agr]

ppsspp close right after i launch it.. it wont launch.. can you help me by share the ppsspp.ini?

[xsacha]

Not sure why that is happening That app shouldn't depend on E:/ drive.

Did it create a folder, F:/PPSSPP?

[bose_agr]

yes. it did create F:/PPSSPP/PSP/SYSTEM. but no config file there.

[xsacha]

Do other apps launch? The app shouldn't be touching E:/ at all unless Symbian needs to touch E:/ for something.

[bose_agr]

some app work and some not. i can play some games like asphalt 6, or open office app.. or maybe is it because i use cfw? i'll try back to ofw if it can help you track the problem. but unfortunately i'm far from my PC right know. maybe 2-3 days from now i can revert back to ofw.

p.s. i'm using opera mini right know.

is this issue can also caused by my broken accelerometer by any chance?

Regards

[xsacha]

Oh I found the issue.
PPSSPP is using Qt on Symbian and Nokia forced Qt to be installed on E:/ because it is too big to fit on C:/

[bose_agr]

ouch,, damn nokia.. so that's the problem. Thanks for finding it xsacha.
and that's why some of my app stop working now. but some qt app still work (like starbrowser by allstar)?

Thanks anyway for your effort xsacha, i will back to play SNES/PSX in my phone then.

xsacha,why symbian doesnot have display resolution(hw scaler) option? Will bufferd rendering be faster if .75x, .50x like resolutions are added?(i know graphics will become scrap but speed is important in nokia n8)

---

btw, spiderman 2 runs fine on n8.

Settings,
bufferd rendering
hw transform,sowftware skinning,low bezier curves
texture filtering to nearest
all hack hack settings enabled except texture coord
cpu overcloak set to 25

after a level game may/will crash don't worry next time you start it,it will work fine.

And minamoto-kun I have played kizuna drive but one tail cannot be defeated,so kizuna drive is LOL

My list of tested games on N8
ben 10 alien force(too heavy black screen with ben's head)

ben 10 vilgax attacks(even more heavy than above game it hangs at loading data when press cancel it hangs forever)

spider man 3(it lags too much,at first it don't boot,I don't think its playable)

ben 10 cosmic destruction(don't even think about it)

marvel ultimate allience(playable just like xmen legends 2)

street fighter 3(not playable and I thought it would run at full speed)

assassins creed(lags but playable)

tekken 6(it wont even boot)

tekken 5(too slow but I completed it in 2-3 hours)

spider man 2(it runs best.1st game which runs smoothly without frameskipping)

how is it immpossible to have .5x resolution, android can do it by gltools and it causes 2-10% increase in speed

[xsacha]

If 'Timer Hack' is turned on, many games will be running faster than what the 'FPS'/'Speed' says. It might say 10-20 FPS but actually be going at maximum speed.

The Symbian phones have a good GPU. It's the CPU that is limiting them. Changing the resolution won't affect performance on these phones.

Timer hack works perfectly in some games, but can break games (naruto shippuden kizuna drive, for example).
It would be desirable to make it work in more games ...All Symbian ^ 3 Smartphones have the same processors Samsung ARMv6...On the first generation of its restricted to 680 MHz, but Belle Refresh opened up to 1000 MHz...The second generation in Belle FP2 it overclocked to 1300 MHz.
