Cant get PSX4Droid to run

Ive tried and tried and tried but i cannot get any roms to run. Ive tried .PBP through Eboot, ive done many .bins and .img.....

Ive tried about 5 games from different sites and even ripped my own from a old PSX disk and all it does is go to a black screen then back to the rom selection screen. Ive downloaded 3 different bios files to see if i had a bad one.

If someone could be a awesome help, can you send me the link you used thats working, or host the bios file to see if thats my problem.

This is driving me crazy and since that stupid error when processing purchase, im not elgible for a return.... im running Droid1, 2.2 Cyanogenmod RC2 @ 1.1ghz
 
Try using different PSX BIOS's. Sounds like that's the problem.

Seems like someone can't read the op said that they had tryed diffrent BIOS!!!

Sounds to more like the roms are not in the right format as the guide I found was goning on about a sertion file time isn't supported but the app or something like that.

Best bet is rip you own disc's first and then test them on a PC emu to see if the rip works if so try on your phone if it still dosn't work try and older game, if you can try one thats small in size this way your not goin to waste loads of time with downloads and transfering etc.

From looking around it seems to be very hit and miss with this app just try diffrent games and see what you get!

I have tried 4 different BIOS files so I'm pretty sure it isnt that. How would I go about ripping my own discs? When I try to put FF7 in either my mac or my pc I cant read the files? Do I need a special program? I am so confused haha.

Had the same problem, downloaded/installed bgills market fix, working perfectly :D

Credit to Big Lou on cyanogenmod.com forums for the solution.

I didn't like the other solution of running a different ROM :p

I dont understand why people are having this much trouble. I am playing 10 games on mine and havent had a single issue. HTC Incredible. No sure if you all are actually getting the right bin files.

Do you have the link for the bios file that you are using..and link to website that you're using for your roms? can you please pm me..thank you :)

Sorry to post this again but help can be found if you follow the instructions on this site

Home - psx4droid - Instructions, Setup & Advice Roms

there are links to some videos, a full instruction page etc, have a look around the site. Hope it helps people!! leave feedback on the site if it works for you.

cheers

This is the site that I found and used to get it running on my Droid X. Followed the instructions and didn't have any issues. Final Fantasy Tactics (from romhustler) works great on it.
