RE: Droid48 Reader 1.5 Released
Unfortunately, droid48 has many bugs and the author is not willing to correct them, expecting a real emu48 port from our friend CG, as it did with emu48 for pocketPC.
Survey, you are willing to pay for a version of emu48PC on android-os? emu48 PC 20 years http://hp.giesselink.com/emu48.htm |

Are the bugs you are most concerned about from that the author chose x48 as the engine instead of emu48 or bugs from the Android-specific code the author wrote to get the x48 engine running on Android? I am just curious. Before anyone writes a new emu48 app for Android, does anyone know what engine Olivier De Smet's apps use? I don't know if his 4 apps use emu48, x48, or something else. His are the go48* series of apps. Here are all the HP-48 related Android apps I know about. Notice how many installs have been done for the free apps versus the paid apps.

RE: Droid48 Reader 1.5 Released
The simplest engine is X48, but it is the most incomplete and with many BUGS, the engine that is well developed is emu48 (20 years of development) now GOxx emulators have their own engine, but are bad, crashes, resets etc.
We need an RPN and RPL enthusiast who makes an emu48PC port to android or i-os, I think he could earn some money, as there are many RPN and RPL followers |

Olivier are doing a great job in developing and maintaining his apps and it cost little money. Cheers |

RE: Droid48 Reader 1.5 Released
I haven't seen any bugs in x48 yet.
Testing some of my devices I don't see the UI issue. a quick search on emu48 looks like its runs on windows only. |

RE: Droid48 Reader 1.5 Released
So it sounds like your main complaints with Droid48 are:
Have you contacted the author about these issues? I don't know if he can do much for the 1st issue but the 2nd is definitely within his control. I've been meaning to ping him about the same UI layout issues and have contacted about lock-up issues in older versions. |

RE: Droid48 Reader 1.5 Released
The author of droid48, never answered my emails
I want to see in droid48 reader a simple program editor like notepad with a chars table for paste symbols and then you can transfer them to the emulator stack, who is in the capacity to do it? |

I don't use Droid48 much, so I cannot tell, but looks like you showed layout bugs, but only in landscape mode. Let's hope the developer correct this soon and let's not forget that he did it for free and there's no AD in the app. We should thank him, anyway. Best Regards JL |

Alternatively, Droid 48 Reader theoretically could partly implement where you'd write the program in Droid48 Reader and save it to a file but then the user would switch to Droid48 to transfer the file to the stack. Droid48 Reader currently only reads data out of Droid48; it doesn't push the data back into Droid48. The catch with either solution is that the mechanism for putting a file/data on the stack is that the HP stack is designed for binary HP files and not text HP files. For a program editor, creating text is easy but the binary is harder. There are two main options:

FYI, my access to the Internet will be limited for the next week. I expect to be able to intermittently reply, but the replies will come slower.
