hendersonn Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Does anyone know of a Stella emulator for the Android platform? I do a lot of coding on the go, and I'd like to test it too. I could just use dosbox (which is how I'm running dasm), but that'd be messy. tl;dr: Looking for Stella for Android. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Cade Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I don't mean to be rude, but did you bother to Google that? There are two right at the top of the list... Droid2600 and 2600.emu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a counter question for you (since you have some coding experience) How could we auto-run Droid2600 or 2600.emu so that they start automatically every time you turn on your Android machine?

hendersonn Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Yeah, I guess I should have mentioned, I'm not a huge fan of randomly installing apps from an unknown developer on the same phone I manage my bank accounts on. (I don't like not knowing what permissions I'm granting apps) :-) I figured I'd ask here to see if anyone had any experience with any; I know the play store has one too, but if I'm to pay for an app, it should probably be outstanding.

hendersonn Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Loon, there's apps for it, though ive never used them. But if youre looking for something more techanical, you could probably just add a bash script at the end of the INI file in the root directory, I'm pretty sure there is a section of "what to do at boot" in there somewhere. Also, I take it you've use/used those emulators before? Edited June 24, 2014 by hendersonn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendersonn Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Ok, well I only just figured out how to view permissions outside of the app store, so I'm gonna try around. I'd still like to hear what other people are running, or if anyone has seen the actual Stella emulator on android. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root your Android and use e.g. DroidWall. Else I wouldn't do any banking on that device. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigO Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) It's probably been a couple of years, but I used Droid2600 on a Samsung Galaxy SII. But, I don't do any banking on my phone so have no opinion on the security aspect. Edited July 2, 2014 by BigO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sloth-machine Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 2600.emu in the Google play store is fantastic and well worth the 3 bucks. It holds its own against Stella. You can customize the touch controls or use a plug in controller through USB (I use a real Atari joystick with an adaptor through my tablet). It supports Bluetooth as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Eric Schmidt says: "..If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place." So, if you don't want AppleBee's to know how much you spent at Victoria's Secret or the Men in Black dipping into your credit card transactions in realtime DroidWall sounds pretty good!

hendersonn Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) I've been using Ataroid with satisfaction. I may give the one(s) on the market a try, I'm getting less stingy about paying for apps. I feel like I may have derailed my own topic with the security thing, lol. Nonetheless, I tried DroidWall and it was alright. I think it did it's job quite well (in fact, it broke my browser), but felt I was just being paranoid, so I uninstalled it. I don't make a habit of installing apps I don't really need anyway. Edited July 7, 2014 by hendersonn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STGraves Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 How do you compile the code using dasm in yojr phone? I'm curious to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendersonn Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Same as on the PC; using a port of DOSBox, point dasm(.exe) to your source and run it via an emulator. It's been a while since I've done it, but I just got FreeBox off the market and ran the bin though ataroid (not on the market) with success. You could probably do the same with with a linux build through a terminal emulator, but I haven't tried it. I can make a proper tutorial in a bit if you'd like.

STGraves Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Please do!, I'd love to learn to be able to compile from a smartphone, on linux I can do it without any issues at all, but I couldn't do it on android and I tried a lot.
