I got a Motorola RAZR V3 and I was wondering if anyone can recommend the best flash game/emulator for it? I did do a quick search and found there are SNES, Gamboy and MAME emulators for it but do they really work properly or are they slow and run like 5 fps?

I need someone to point me in the right direction so I won't make a bad decision. Thanks. :)

You can try Vnes J2ME 1.2 . The V3 actually has a big screen and comfy buttons but is it good in java ? I don't know ..Try this emulator and give us your feedback .

Hmm... Thanks for the link but I'm a little bit suspicious of those so called generous 'free downloads' from credit card hungry sites that coat their eye catching candy with spyware.

And it's only a limited offer anyway, so it's no point spending all that time figuring out the program when in 30 days or less it's going to go bye-bye. Anyway, after seeing some pitful java games I'm doubtful my RAZR V3 will properly support Vnes.

Right now, I'm using this program called Motomidman which is fairly easy to use, though it took a while to find the right program, after I wasted two days trying to find PST 6.7 (I was unsuccessful) and mucking around with Midway 2.8 (Piece of shit) which didn't sync my mobile with the modem.

I don't know if I am allowed to show a link to this site which contains heaps of goodies as in other sites it's considered WAREZ, which I think might equate to ROMs here.

Edit:The only problem is that the majority of java game are not in full screen. I did enable 'add set full screen mode instruction' in the Java Adapter options and changed the screen size but there was no effect.

Is there some way I can enable full screen?

I got the L6 which is pretty similar to the V3. I installed some new games (normal mobile phone games) and:
1. The games are pretty big in size if you consider the total capacity of the phone (11 MB in my L6)
2. A lot of games have trouble with the controller thing. Sometimes you hit the 2 and it does an out-of-place move, for example.
3. The graphics of those games are very very "basic", so that the cell phone will be able to execute it.
4. Some games have the audio corrupted.

Having this bunch of problems on a normal Java game, I don't think that this mobile phones would be able to emulate something, not even a GameBoy...

Aye, my thinking exactly. However I do have two NES java games, Super Mario 1 & 2 and Sonic Classic which are dumbed down micro versions the size of a ten cent piece. They have basic sound effects with soundtrack and are playable if you have a prescription from your Optometrist and have the fingers of a four year old, preferably not attached to its body.

Actually, I got the V3x. Is that extra 'x' a typo or the next model?

It's the next model, the V3x has the same graphics acceleration as the V3xx and V6Maxx, but it's not enabled in any of the released firmwares, nor can it be enabled via seem edit/flex.

Does the RAZR V3x support 1G micro SD card? The official site says it supports only 512 MB but the salesman says the RAZR should now support 1G. Is that right? I need to know before the end of the week when he gets more in stock and as they are selling for around $30 I thought it was a good deal.

I would trust a manufacturer's specs over a salesman's suggestion just to be on the safe side.

Thanks. That's what I thought. Although, I was still hoping my post would be answered by a knowledgeable RAZR V3x owner who might know for certain.

I suppose it wont hurt to buy the 1G card, especially as it is now at a low price. The worst thing I wont be able to use the remaining 512MB memory but I guess I can always use it for the next model when I update.

Also, I might be able to gain a few extra bites. For example I bought a 1G SD card for my 256MB Omni MP3 player (after listening to the advice of yet another inept salesman) and even though it didn't support it I was still able to gain an extra 86MB. WhOOt! :)

Yeah, thanks. Those links were a great help. It seems to support the salesman's claims that RAZR V3x software has been updated to support 1G.

Of course if it doesn't I'll return it to the bitch. ;)

Cool. Just curious. Have you done any seem editing? I was also thinking of monster flashing as well but little worried about the consquencences if I stuff up. There's a good site here: http://hackthev3.com/
