For 12C Platinum on Android I put exactly the same program steps with step numbers like 09 for 12C and 009 for 12C Platinum.
Program run but always return 0 display eventhough
it is true and all the store registers result are correct answer.

Example:
Is 5 to the power of 25

5 ENTER 25 R/S

Display 0 // suppose to be display 1

Correct answer in registers
R1 is 5
R3 is 2
R2 is 25

Remark: 12C Platinum on PC work fine.

I can confirm the program as listed in the OP does not produce correct results on HP's HP-12CP Android emulator. I have not tried it on a real 12CP or any other emualtor. Yet.

In the example just above (5,25) the resulting registers (on Android) are:

R1: 5
R2: 25
R3: 3

I don't have time right now to SST through on a real machine side-by-side with the emulator, but will try to do so later today.

Meanwhile, if you have time to look at it Dieter, perhaps the incorrect R3 value above is a hint for where the error lies?

It looks like Gamo found a real bug in the Android emulator. Well done Gamo.
