Problem with the SNES9x Android port

Post by CrashGordon94 »

Last time I had it installed on my previous phone (a Sony Xperia Arc) and it worked a treat but now I have it on my new phone (a Samsung Galaxy S4) and whenever I try to boot it, it just says "Unfortunately, Snes9x EX has stopped." and I'm booted back to the screen I ran it from. Both times I used Easy Installer and it's literally the exact same .APK I installed from (I used my old SD Card in my new phone).

Any help would be much appreciated!

First thing I'd try doing is clearing the appdata, especially if you backed up with titanium backup and restored on your GS4. Otherwise this is weird, especially considering the Xperia Arc uses 2.3 Android and the apk is meant for 2.3 or higher Android (unless you got an apk meant for an older version?).

Additionally why use Snes9X EX when you can get Snes9X EX+? It's based off the latest code and should run on your GS4 just fine.

PS: I have a GS4 myself and I installed Snes9X EX for 2.3+ Android (and upgraded to the latest version, 1.5.12) with Easy Installer. Opened it from the apps menu, loads just fine. Make a short cut on my home screen, it loads just fine. Tried loading a game and it also works. So I have no idea what's going on here. :?

Honestly, I had no idea there was an EX+, might try that if this doesn't work.

I'll have a go at clearing the app data and see how that goes, thanks.
