EmuCR:gpSP4SymbiangpSP4Symbian v0.51 is released. gpSP4Symbian is a Gameboy Advance emulator (GBA) for Symbian S60 3rd edition.This emulator is based on gpSP. It also uses SDL port by Anotherguest.

the gpSP is a gameboy advance emulator originally written by Exophase. And now it’s ported to the Symbian OS!

This is a small patch for the previous version, so no real need to update for Nokia users. However Samsung users might want to test this one ;-)

I have been a bit lazy in gpsp development. I’m currently waiting for more stuff from Qt Mobility project. The current version give only 8khz mono audio, while I would like to have at least 22100hz stereo. I still might implement the audio with standard Symbian API’s. I just would like to wait for the Qt API stuff, since then I would keep the maximum compatibility to Symbian^4 and even to the upcoming Meego. Bot of them should fully support all Qt mobility APIs according to Nokia.
EmuCR:gpSP4Symbian

What’s new:
* Support for Samsung i8910
* Polished mainview
* fixed the common settings bug with AntSnesQt
* few other minor bugs fixes

know issues:
* It’s a gpsp port, so see the gpsp compatibility list before complaining about non-working ROMs
* Audio is not yet implemented (I’m waiting for new Qt release with QAudio implementation)
* loading the state freezes the emulator in some games ( don’t worry, the batterysave still works)
* the emulator crashes if you try to load a ROM without setting the BIOS
* there are some limitations in the ZIP file support, so maybe you have to upzipt the ROMs
* The ZIP files seem to be eating quite a lot of RAM, so If ROM doesn’t work, try extracting it.
* Samsung blit fails when “keep aspect ratio” is ticked off

ZIP limitations
* WinZip
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (PPMd) format WILL NOT work.
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (bzip2) format WILL NOT work
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (Enhanced Deflate) format WILL NOT run
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Normal format WILL run
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Fast format WILL run.
* Roms ziped in the WinZip Super Fast format WILL run.
* Roms ziped in the WinZip None format WILL run.

Installation:
Same process as with the AntSnes:

1. First Install Qt 4.6.3 binaries into your phone
Nokia users can just download and install this Download Qt installation package
2. Download the gpsp4symbian.sis
3. gpsp4Symbian requires the SWEvent capability. The SwEvent is required for key mapping: Now you can map call/end call etc. buttons for the gpsp usage. Therefore the following step is required to install the SW.

Go to SymbianSigned and sign the gpsp4Symbian.sis for your own phone IMEI
using free Open Signed Online option https://www.symbiansigned.com/app/page/public/openSignedOnline.do this operation should be free of any charge.
Read carefully the instructions on the SymbianSigned site.
You must give them

* Your Phone IMEI (you can obtain it digiting *#06# on your phone)
* Your EMAIL Address
* gpsp4Symbian SIS Package

And then the symbiansigned should email you the signed gpsp4Symbianfor your phone. This package will be installable ONLY on your phone. This procedure works for all Symbian S60V5 Phones. I had also to change to date on the phone into yesterday to get it working..
