I have seen many many requests for adding PSX ROMs using sendspace and iShare. So I know this will make a lot of people happy. Thanks to Brill301 from ipodtouchfans.com for this. Make sure you follow all of the steps very carefully.
TUTORIAL:
It is pretty straight forward, but, might as well.
Needed:
PSX emulator
iShare.app
Sendspace Account
WHAT TO DO:
Install this FIRST! To the psx .app.
This is the bios: scph1001.bin
Enter this into iShare: http://www.sendspace.com/file/iwjueo
These are the iso’s:
Install var/root/media/ROMs/PSX
If you don’t already have PSX folder MAKE ONE by using total commander or an FTP client!
** There are more detailed instructions after the game links, make sure you look at them if you are unsure of how to do this.

Worms Armegeddon: http://www.sendspace.com/file/etf878
Now that you have the .txt file pick a game that you want (as many as you want!).
Then go to the ishare.app and make an account (if you don’t already have one)
Then click download.
Then click on the: http://www.sendspace.com/file/
…then all you need to add is the last 6 numbers/letters!
Then pick were to put the iso
/var/root/Media/ROMs/PSX/
If you don’t have a PSX folder already, you will need to make one.
Now play your game.
Make sure you put the BIOS in first!

Everyone download the bios that T-Rok posted above…that should work for you.
Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:24:57
I tried downloading it, alex can oyu explain to me plz!
Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:27:28
You just have to download it the way it says in the instructions. Make a sendspace account and then go to that link. You have to make sure the bios is installed to the psx.app.
Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:28:17
ya i did that. it still doesnt work
Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:29:19
Umm ive downloaded the games and it says Error opening CDR compotent

Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:36:42
What is the cdr compotent anyways does it have anything to do with the bios
Mar 01, 2008 @ 13:45:37
Well isn’t anyone gonna answer him!. I have the same problem!
Mar 01, 2008 @ 14:57:37
I would answer him but i have the same problem
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:04:17
so has it worked for anyone
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:04:32
I think it has something to do with the files being zipped. I checked and all the files ended with “.z”. When I unzipped the files that were downloaded from the links and SSHed them into my iPod they worked..
Maybe this is the on;y way to do it for now?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:05:54
I have seen it working in a youtube video, but I do not know what version the guy had, and I also do not know if version would matter. So I am not sure if my having 1.1.3 is a problem
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:06:39
how do u ssh them then
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:07:10
Darn, you posted before i could, now i have to double post. Anywho, what exactly did you unzip?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:07:51
because if you tell me what to unzip i can upload them unzipped onto sendspace
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:07:52
if there zipped how do they show up in the psx emulator and how do u ssh them
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:10:40
I think to unzip them you need to download the file using your computer. Then just use any unzipping program to unzip them. I think this must have been done because the files are too big otherwise?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:11:40
http://lonman06.com/2008/01/12/ipod-touch-how-to-manually-add-nes-roms/
that is how you ssh
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:12:57
Yo, T-Rock you know how to put stuff on ishare right. well type in PSX bios on youtube and they give you links the good websites. go into the website download the bios, and when you open it it says to you want to unzip it. if you could do that it would meen quite a bit to me and im sure alot of other people. sooooo just tell us the 6 digits if you wanna do that
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:13:38
So ur gonna post the codes if u unzip them and upload them?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:22:39
paul how do u ssh without a computer on the ipod
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:27:52
I think you need a computer to ssh.
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:33:50
i kno i used my pc and downloaded puTTy and its not working
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:35:01

BIOS PSX (scph7502.bin) DOWNLOAD
Mar 01, 2008 @ 15:52:47
i think its the 1001. if that doesnt work lets try all of them. thanks for doin this man.
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:04:01
well i unzipped it and compared it to the one we had earlier, it appears to be the same, but that is to be tested
http://www.sendspace.com/file/akx4rk
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:10:01
I was just looking around google, and i think i may have found out why it is not working, we shall see
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:10:50
dang it didnt work. it says error opening cdr component when i try to play a game. where do i save the bios to, i saved it too the PSX folder in ROMs, but it also apears in the psx emulator, do you know what im doing wrong?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:11:15
o thanks what did it say on google?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:18:20
the reason it is not working is because of what he said earlier it is a zipped file, a .Z, you have to unzip it, so im downloading to my comp right now to see about what to do
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:19:49
o thanks, just post it when your done, thanks again for doing this
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:30:31
have you unzipped it yet?
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:37:52
patience i was busy finding a free program that could do the job
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:38:28
o sorry… have you found it yet? lol
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:41:35
I thought I did, but then my hopes were dashed
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:42:08
aw that sucks
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:44:23
As this is not my computer, I won’t be downloading some things yet, so this wont be done today
Mar 01, 2008 @ 16:45:54
ok, i might find something off ishare, if i find it ill post it on this website
Mar 01, 2008 @ 18:06:40
where is ishare
Mar 01, 2008 @ 19:25:53
go to installer then go to all packages then ishare
Mar 02, 2008 @ 03:05:06
Every time i go into my ROMs folder then psx i see
” …”
Mar 02, 2008 @ 03:07:55
Correction: i see ” .. “
Mar 02, 2008 @ 03:24:02
does the psx folder HAVE to be in the exact location on the ipod ?
Mar 02, 2008 @ 10:26:12
ummm question how do u extract the psx roms while doing an ssh?
Mar 02, 2008 @ 10:51:52
I cant extract the roms idk how
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:07:10
it’s not the way you guys are doing it that’s wrong it’s the actual roms. I was having the same problem, but when I manually did it (using ibrickr) with a different rom it worked fine. So my conclusion is that this way sucks!
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:09:15
oh btw unzipping makes no difference because I am pretty sure it can still recognize unzipped roms.
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:14:23
um?
Can you post exactly how you did it?
That would be great!
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:19:19
Guys here’s a link for a lot of PSX ROMs. Does anyone think they can find a way to get some of these on iShare for us?
Here’s the link: http://roms.zophar.net/sony-playstation/all
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:22:26
alrite ive gotten some psx roms and used winrar to try to extract them and it didnt work i have no idea y
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:24:04
u think u can tell how to ibrickr it um?
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:41:39
ibrickr is just computer software. Google it and download it. Then plug your iPod touch in and then you can access your files on your iPod. You can make folders and add files to it. You don’t even need the bios that’s optional but if you want it in ibrickr put it in applications/psx4all. Then go to var/mobile/media/ROM’s/psx and put your roms in their and that should work!
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:44:03
So ibrickr is like using SSH, but it is a direct connection to the computer? Does it work on mac and pc?
Mar 02, 2008 @ 12:56:23
Yeah it’s direct conection and so you don’t need to piss about with that alpine shit. It works on pc but I dunno about mac. There probably is a mac version but I’m not sure.
Mar 02, 2008 @ 14:58:17
dareen the source goes to uncategorized is it the right source?
Mar 02, 2008 @ 15:18:31
It’s not a source it’s a download site.
Mar 02, 2008 @ 15:29:49
hey if someone can give me an account to login I could download some games you guys would want and I’ll make an ishare account for you guys could use then, I would change the password every about 30 minutes so that it would give it a lower chance for the password to be changed
Mar 02, 2008 @ 18:49:24

ARE U EVER GONNA ANSWER????? PLEASE
Mar 03, 2008 @ 15:41:06
the link above to download psx roms takes for ever to download
Mar 03, 2008 @ 17:53:57
I think “error opening cdr component” means that there is something wrong when you try to open the roms. I am going to see if I can find more information about this.
Mar 03, 2008 @ 20:34:58
thank you man i appreciate it
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:26:23
Thank you so much micheal! AT LEAST SOMEONE HELPS< YOUD THINK CHRIS WOULD HELP. SEEING THAT THIS IS HIS WEBSITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:33:58
This is lonman’s website, not chris’s.
Have you guys tried downloading roms from the web and then manually adding them by creating the file path given above? That may work also..
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:35:29
i tried downloading them from web, but their in RAR format, and sorry chris
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:38:41
Hey BOB, if you download them in RAR format, just unzip them and try to manually add them. When I get the chance, hopefully in the next day or two I am going to see if I can get it to work. If it works I will post another guide.
That leads me to another question: would you guys like to see a forum where you could discuss rom and other ipod touch hacking stuff?
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:45:38
how do u unzip .Z file or .7z files?
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:48:34
my computer wont let me unzip the RARs, is their a program i should download that will let me unzip it?
Mar 04, 2008 @ 17:50:08
i installed the bios to the psxforall icon and when i poen the ROMs it says ewrror opening CDR component
Mar 05, 2008 @ 16:43:52
Hey guys I’ve found away of downloading roms directy from your ipod and get them on your ipod without a computer. Add this source http://homepage.mac.com/hartsteins/co... then go to copy coders category and 1.1.1 users download 1.1.1 – Download Plugin and 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 users download 1.1.2 – Download Plugin. Then add this source http://movenplay.gforge.inria.fr/iphone and download MNPlight. You can now download any rom from any rom site. Download a rom then click on MNPlight, click files, downloads, then click on the file you downloaded. Click on unzip archive and type in the directory you want to download it to eg. psx would be /var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX and then you can play it. More info watch this video I found on youtube but he downloads an MP3 but it’s the same idea
http://youtube.com/watch?v=TVewqpm1Q9k
Mar 08, 2008 @ 23:41:56

I beilieve this is the first comment on this page from someone who thi sworks for…
the grand theft auto is a zipped file, please unzip and put on sendspace
Mar 12, 2008 @ 00:01:51
The Playstation bios is called “schp1001.bin”
you DO NOT put it into “/var/root/Media/ROMs/PSX/” or “/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX/” !
The bios file MUST go into “/Applications/psx4all.app/” it MUST be named “scph1001.bin”
Depending on your version of the iPhone you have, you may need to put your roms into a different folder.
1.1.3 and 1.1.4 users must place the PSX Games into “/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX/” were as previous users place them into “/var/root/Media/ROMs/PSX/”
Type the following commands in putty or winscp or using Term-vt100. (Google for help if needed)
If you would like to create a link in “/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX” to “/var/root/Media/ROMs/PSX”.
rm -rf /var/root/Media/ROMs/PSX
ln -s /var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX \
/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX
reboot
psx4iphone support the following game formats:
.ISO
.BIN (“RAW” rip from tools such as CDRDAO and CloneCD)
.IMG (such as from CloneCD)
.Z (from PocketISO compressed BIN files)
.ZNX (from PocketISO compressed BIN files)
IMPORTANT! YOU MUST SET FILE PERMISSIONS OF THE FILE psx4all TO 755
Type the following commands in putty or winscp or using Term-vt100. (Google for help if needed)
chmod 755 /Applications/psx4all.app/
hope this little bit of info helped in some way to at least one of you.
Mar 12, 2008 @ 12:21:01
hey LOL thanks 4 that but wen i use vt 100 it says no such thing any suggestions
Mar 12, 2008 @ 12:21:24

ok i got it!
opening CDR problem means theres an error when downloading or opening the rom
also u cant change the .Z files
so the only way to get PSX games to work is to download straight from the computer
bubbling iso is a good site
Mar 15, 2008 @ 02:42:58
http://roms.zophar.net/sony-playstation/all is also a good website
both are free to register

what can i do to fix this problem?
Mar 18, 2008 @ 23:47:38
p.s. does the “scph1001″ suppose to appear on the screen/list where the games are listed on psx4all?
Mar 18, 2008 @ 23:59:40
Which txts are which gameS?
Mar 19, 2008 @ 14:49:00
is says crd error opening component!
Mar 19, 2008 @ 14:55:05
The guy is a dick he makes you download zipped games! Look you will need to somehow unzip the games and youm will see the proper game inside then you put it in the ROMS/PSX folder
You put the bios in the psx4all.app
You need WinSCP!
Why do you think it says grandtheftauto only 5mb? Its 100mb in real life unzipped
Mar 19, 2008 @ 23:06:49
some one please put the fight folders or make it .rar or something there is like no way to open .z i’ve been trying a couple days
Mar 20, 2008 @ 01:29:25
i need help with the
“Error Opening CDR Component”
situation
how can i make it work?
Mar 20, 2008 @ 14:59:59
lol this shit doesn´t work because i can´t unzip it
i´ve tried winzip, winrar, 7z…but i can´t unzip!!
Mar 20, 2008 @ 15:02:44
please tell me how to unzip this files because they don´t work! error opnening CDr component…
Mar 21, 2008 @ 07:39:11
YOU GUYS! COME ON!
I know your smarter then this
1. You do not UNZIP or EXTRACT the games!
psx4all will play them as is, just like I listed above.
2. The psx bios “scph1001.bin” DOES NOT go in the same folder as the roms! it goes into the application folder.
3. The login password and user name are as follows:
For users with firmware 1.1.2/1.1.3/1.1.4
User: root
Pass: alpine
For users with firmware 1.0/1.0.1/1.0.2/1.1.1
User: root
Pass: dottie
4. .z is a compressed .bin file and can be opened using “PocketISO”
5. The command to set the permissions is as follows:
chmod 755 /Applications/psx4all.app/
6. Geting “No Such Thing” ?
The directorys don’t exist and don’t worry about it, worry about how old your firmware is
UPDATE to 1.1.4 GUYS!
Use ziphone 2.6b to Unlock, Jailbreak and Activate http://www.ziphone.org
ANYONE CAN DO IT ITS THAT EASY!
I will try to help you all the best I can
but first try YOUTUBE!
http://youtube.com/results?search_query=PSX4All.app&search_type=
Mar 21, 2008 @ 07:43:01
Guy’s just do a search on YOUTUBE for
psx4all
Mar 23, 2008 @ 09:59:56
that helps
Mar 24, 2008 @ 09:14:43
mine says that the file download failed
Mar 24, 2008 @ 09:41:40
SSH guide, must be jailbroken and have PSX4all installed b4 u start.
To SSH, download Winscp, just search on google and then open it up , make sure you have installed BSD subsystem and OpenSSH from installer first. Thengo to setting on ure ipod, general and ensure that autolock is turned off, then go to settings, WIFI, then press the little blue arrow. Now open WINSCP click new, type the Ip address you can see on ure ipod into the host name box and for username type root and for password type alpine. Ignore the other stuff, Click login and wait for around 3o secons to 2 or 3 minutes. it should go searching for host, connecting, authenticating. A new window will then pop up with media and library. Click on the up icon on the toolbar at the top and then on the new window go down to applications. Google scph1001.bin until u find the file. Make sure it is all lowercase, before proceeding otherwise it wont work. Now go to applications, psx for all and drag the bios into the folder. It should be a .bin file and if its compressed, use a program called 7 zip to uncompress it. Oce the bios has copied, go into the folder called psx4all and there will be loads of stuff in it. Find the bios, right click and then go right click, properties, and click all of the boxes labelled x. The octal shoudl now read 755.
You have now put the bios in.
Now google psx iso or whatever to find some ROMS. downlaod and extract.
Reload WINSCP and go into media. Create a folder called ROMs and then a subfolder called PSX. Dump the Rom in there and change the properties as we have previously done. Now the game should load.
Any problems and email me at Whitka 99@googlemail.com
Mar 24, 2008 @ 09:43:05
BTW, to unzip, merely install 7zip and then right click on the file u want to unzip , go to 7 zip and then extract here. Now i’ve written enough hopefully for the time being….
Mar 24, 2008 @ 09:44:58
One more thing, for the Roms, just check out the sources at the top, just go to sendspace whatever and download.
Mar 24, 2008 @ 13:15:30

Mar 29, 2008 @ 14:08:09
hey guys the psx bios starts to download…well of shows the file name then stops and says file can’t download…Why?
Mar 29, 2008 @ 14:39:47
hey niall. For GBA you need 2 GBA folders…ROMs/GBA/GBA and put all games in last GBA folder nothing should be in the first GBA folder so…
Mar 29, 2008 @ 14:42:37
I have 1.1.4 also and snes,genesis, and nes works with just one folder…for some reason GBA you have to have ROMs/GBA/GBA… So the second GBaa folder is inside the first…
Mar 29, 2008 @ 16:52:34
hey guys I downloaded the psx bios and placed a game in PSX folder but it still say no roms found…help!!!
Mar 29, 2008 @ 19:19:16
hey, that still didn’t work. i go on2 gpSphone and it still says No GBA ROMs found. Please upload ROMs to/var/root/Media/ROMs/GBA
can any1 help?
Mar 30, 2008 @ 09:15:57
niall, when you first open up ure SSH program u shud see a folder called media. Go in there and create a folder called ROMs. Spelt exactly like that. Then create a subfoder called GBA in the ROMs folder. Put the roms in there and make sure that they are in .gba format. Then once they are in right click and go to properties, permissions and then click that. Change the permissions/octal to 755, otherwise the Roms wont work. Megamods.co.cc for more help if you need it or email Whitka99@googlemail.com
Mar 30, 2008 @ 13:51:23
people instead of choosin the psx folder, just choose the roms folder and it will download then just ssh into ur ipod and move it to the psx folder
Mar 30, 2008 @ 14:31:51
wats SSH? i thought mobile finder is wat it its called
Mar 31, 2008 @ 14:19:45
k niall, its like an easier way of mobile finder on ure computer. Just google WINSCP3 and you should get it. Look up this page for my guide on how to do it because its too loing for me tbb to write it all out again.
Mar 31, 2008 @ 20:02:55
help!!!!! Wats ssh?
Apr 01, 2008 @ 00:21:57
Does anyone care to explain why many of us are getting the CDR error?
I think the permissions are fine. (The first time I tried the command it said it couldn’t find the folder, but then I capitalized the “A” in “Applications” and hit return and it gave me no feedback at all. I’m assuming it worked?)
Bios is installed fine, no error there. I am running 1.1.1 and have no intention of upgrading to 1.1.4 because it causes tons of compatibility problems and the only real benefit is the wiggle feature…big deal, I can easily organize my icons with customize…Seriously, what is the 1.1.4 craze all about? It has NOTHING new to offer and it uses 1.1.3′s shitty alternate folder thing. It would be much easier on the developers if people stuck with 1.1.1 and 1.1.2. Plus, last time I installed 1.1.4, it glitched when I tried to install most of my apps. :/
Apr 01, 2008 @ 00:31:30
Oh, and please don’t confuse the problems here. I know where to put the roms. I know where to put the bios. I know the files dont need to be unzipped. I severely doubt using WinSCP instead of iShare will solve anything at all. Address the real problems, please.
My question is: CDR Component error–What is causing it, and is there a solution or not?
Apr 01, 2008 @ 00:33:41
Another question: Why isn’t the bios included with the app? Why would they release an emulator that can’t run any games?
Apr 01, 2008 @ 13:08:04
cos like the ROMS are actually strictly illegal. If nyone wants gta ive got it. Just 8mb big.
Apr 01, 2008 @ 13:11:08
Oh and Spire, just try it, Mobile finder never worked for me and WINSCP does actually work every time. Look at the real solutions please.
Apr 01, 2008 @ 20:23:59
I have made a source that contains GBA bios and nes roms and GBA roms the url is

Apr 02, 2008 @ 09:01:46
Hey guys. All of you that were using 1.1.4 were wasting your time. Zodttd never made it compatible for 1.1.3+. Until today. The zod released 0.2.0, with a 50% performance increase and 1.1.3+. Also, the bios now go in the same folder as your ROMs. Just thought I would let u all know…
Apr 02, 2008 @ 18:53:01
El Pelo Negro i just tried that it doesn’t work I downloaded “twisted metal” when I go to play it I get “Error opening CDR component”
Apr 02, 2008 @ 21:04:19
I have the exact same problem!
Apr 02, 2008 @ 22:04:02
if you got it from here it still won’t work, but if you get them from a ROMs sites, then it should work. If not, maybe your bios are bad…try ‘em both and let me know…I’ll see what I can find out.
Apr 03, 2008 @ 08:54:49
here’s my problem:
I get the game to work…the graphics look great, etc., but my controls dont work. I’m stuck at the new game load game screen

I can only download when i put them in the download folder!?!?!??!?! -.-
Apr 06, 2008 @ 00:01:01
Here is what you do in a PC,
Download WinSCP
Connect your iPod to your PC*Scroll down first*
On WinSCP register your iPod/iPhone
Host Name: Put your IP Address here (Find it in your iPod @ Settings>>WiFi
Username: root
Password: alpine
***So your iPod can do this you have to download Services off Install first.***
Open it up, double-click ” .. ” in WInSCP on your opened iPod
Until it says var down at the bottom
then click root (mobile if you have the update of the emulator, either way do both root and mobile with the same following steps just to make sure:)
Then Media
Then Create a new folder by pressing F7
Name it ROMs
Enter it,should be blank
Make another folder inside it
Name it GBA (if using GBA emulator)
PSX (if using PSX emulator)
GENESIS (if using genesis4iphone)
Then finally, find a ROM, on this site or somewhere else and download it and copy it to var/root*or*mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX*or*GBA*or*GENESIS
then go to /Applications/psx4all.app/
then make a new folder named BIOS
and enter the BIO there, can’t find it?
Google either PSX, GB, GENESIS with BIO at the end ( I used a YouTube video’s description for mine)
If this doesn’t work, copy the BIO to /Applications/GBA or another one (PSX or GENESIS) *outside the BIOS folder
if you get stuck email me at
gsk.leader@yahoo.com
Apr 06, 2008 @ 00:04:21
Find other ROMs here:

How do you make a PSX folder?
Apr 06, 2008 @ 17:02:42
when i tried to download the iso’s it said dowmnload failed file not found
Apr 06, 2008 @ 21:56:31
It is easier with a PC I think
I couldn’t get iShare to work
Apr 08, 2008 @ 06:23:17
Well the CDR error message is related to the application that compresses the game .iso’s. The application compresses the game and also creates a .table file that is needed by the emulator.
Apr 10, 2008 @ 13:20:04
ye that bios doesnt werk
Apr 11, 2008 @ 18:29:34

Keetan
Your 300mb partition is full. You need boss tools to free up disc space.
Follow instuctions carefully
deleting some videos or apps or photos you don’t need to install the necessary boss tool is a must. Free up as much space as you can. You can get applications back in your larger partition after you run the boss tool.
Go through your sources. Its under tweaks or utilities.
Peace!

Apr 20, 2008 @ 06:19:11
just to let you know some of the ROMS are .Z files and are missing the .image file . They wont work and will cause error opening CDR component.
Apr 20, 2008 @ 06:19:54
that should be .table not .image
Apr 20, 2008 @ 08:24:58
thanks a lot

wat is the cdr component 0_O
Apr 21, 2008 @ 18:22:07
or watever
Apr 22, 2008 @ 18:09:51
okay guys I’m gonna explain for those who are on a 1.1.4 and use mac OS X:
-you MUST download your roms from a site,- Rom Hustler for exemple. You gonna dload all the parts of the rom and everything wil be on .rar format.
- you open the first part”nameofthegame [U]part01.rar” in Unrar X and it will create a new .rar file (in the folder wher were all the other .rar files) just find it and open it!
-now a new game is created: you have three or four files(it may depend); .ccd .img and .cue!
-now you open Cyberduck, and you will drag these three (or four) files in /var/mobile/media/ROMs/PSX
here we are! If you put your bios well it will be working. I think in the end it’s exactly the same on windows.
Apr 24, 2008 @ 13:22:24
got everything good but i go to play GTA and it says “no CDR Component”…. whats the deal?
Apr 26, 2008 @ 00:35:26

Apr 26, 2008 @ 17:51:15
Is there a souce that works so i can add that will give me the PSX roms?
May 08, 2008 @ 14:30:57
how do you get rid of the error opening cdr compenent thing on psx?
May 19, 2008 @ 15:48:35
try xwdqpn as the 6 letters at the end of the file name in iShare if the one this site gives you doesn’t work.
May 28, 2008 @ 01:20:08
I don’t know why but when I put the bios in the psx app folder it says can’t find bios but when i put it inthe psx roms folder it seems to work, weird huh?

is there anyway that someone could put the psx4all emulator on ishare for dowload? I dont want your username or pass just the download code. i have tried downloading it from cydia and installer but it always has an error code. I would so appreciate it. Thanks!!!
Oct 23, 2008 @ 02:07:32
Put Tour Bios on the PSX app. not on the PSX folder for ROMS.
If the psx cant find your bios, you put it on the wrong folder.
Remember, in the PSX app. not on the PSX ROMs Folder
Nov 04, 2008 @ 19:26:55
I think you all forgot that you also need the Video plug-ins, bios and video plug-ins are very important components of PSX,… just download them…unzipped them…. and then….put them on the proper folder…(bios files to BIOS folder) (video plug-ins to PLUG-INS folder)….
I recommend you to have multiple Video Plug-ins, so you will have some choices becoz some ISO games have diff compatibility on video….
I hope this could help you folks…..
Dec 05, 2008 @ 23:50:46
i was looking for sendspace roms on google and i found this http://www.digimonspirit.net/digiworld.htm

go to youtube search dinozambas watch his video on how to get psx bios and psx games on to your iphone or ipod touch but you will need to ssh trust me this will work
Jan 02, 2009 @ 17:27:44
also go to cydia and i think the is something you can use to unzip your folders
Apr 13, 2009 @ 04:17:38
Iphone 3G users only!!!!
Hey guys i had the same problem as you guys and believe me i was stressed out trying to get this shit to work because all i had showing up CDR error component. Anyways im posting a comment because i would feel really bad not to because i know there must be many of you that must be having problems. Before i start to explain how to do it i just want to let you know that dont do it the others have directed you to in their comments because they dont know what the fuck they are talking about. THIS IS HOW YOU REALLY DO IT!!!!
1) Anyways you can SSH your iphone two ways. One way using wifi and they other way without wifi and to do it without wifi you need winscp and iphone tunnel suite for you PC. You need to download open ssh, automatic ssh and the toggle to enable and disable it and all this you can find from cydia in your phone.
(If any of you dont know how to SSH im not going to waste my time explaining it because it will take forever. You can learn on youtube)
http://vimeo.com/1875721
this website aboove will teach you how to SSH without wifi and you can also download winscp and iphone tunnel. Watch the video first when you go to this website above.
2)For all those that say that you dont have to put the scph1001.bin bios into the PSX folder under ROMs are retards!!!!
3)Download scph1001.bin from google (Just type it in and download it from the dragonball website)
4)download psx4iphone from cydia
5)ssh and put file scph1001.bin into the PSX folder under ROMs. To get their its /private/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX. Make sure when you put it in you right click the folder and in properties you need to change the Octal to 0755. Make sure you do that or the games wont work!!!
6)You also put the file scph1001.bin into the psx4iphone application folder and to get their its /private/var/stash/Applications/psx4iphone.app and you need to ALSO!!! change it to 0755
7)go to this website http://www.doperoms.com and download any rom of your choice. I cant gaurantee that every rom works because im not going to waste my time trying everyone because i have a life!!lol..but the one i tried was final fantasy tactics and that worked for me. So try that rom first so you know it works. Then try downloading a rom of your choice and if it doesnt work that means that im not wrong, that just means the rom is fukt!! up.
8)When you finish downloading the rom into your PC you have to unzip it before you SSH it into the iphone. Some people say that you dont have to because the emulator can still read it well thats bullshit!!! You have to unzip it. I unzipped a .rar format so when trying to download roms try to download with a format of .rar. I dont know if the others work. Now to unzip the file i used the software winrar. I tried winzip but tell you the truth it sucks so trust me and download winrar from downloads.com and use that to unzip.
9)Once you download winrar go to the rom that you downloaded into your PC and rightclick it and click on extract files. Then a window will popup and you can choose where to extract it. Just to let you know, one of the files being extracted must be in one of these formats or the ROM WONT WORK!!!!!!! The formats are as follows:
.ISO
.BIN
.IMG
.Z
.ZNX
10)Once extracted then SSH the extracted files to /private/var/mobile/Media/ROMs/PSX. Some people say that you have to also SSH the rom into the psx4iphone folder. Again!! thats bullshit!!! LOL. Once the files are in that folder you must right click the files and click on properties again and change the octal to 0755. Again!! if you do not do this then the rom wont work.
11)I recomment that you reboot your iphone once this is all done. Open your emulator and you should see the game of your choice with one of these formats in the end .ISO
.BIN
.IMG
.Z
.ZNX
If you see your game with on eof these formats click on it and have fun! Pce.
Apr 13, 2009 @ 04:28:53
(Continued)
Oh and one more thing i forgot to add. Obvioulsy i prefer using the SSH option without using wifi connection because i dont have wifi connection around my computer area. Anyways when you download iphone tunnel suite and open it before you open winscp a window will open up depending on what windoes verion you have. I have windows xp so mine wasnt the same in the video that the kid made to teach you guys. If its a black window and its asking for a password just put in “alpine” and leave that window open at all times. After that then go ahead and open winscp and follow the directions provided in the video where the kid teaches you how to SSH without wifi connection in the site i provided above http://vimeo.com/1875721
Apr 13, 2009 @ 04:31:59
hahha oh and before it asks for a password its going to ask you to enter either “y” or “n”. Just enter in “y”. Trust me on it. I would exoplain why but that would just take forever and im getting bored of this shit. Anyways good luck and follow my directions very carefully. Dont get to excited becasue you might miss what i directed you to do and then ill get cussed at so take your dayum time! pace.
Apr 13, 2009 @ 04:33:54
One last thing.
I know i said iphone 3g users only well thats because thats the phone i have. I havent tried it with the 1st gen or 2nd gen so try either or and if it works then great then if it doesnt then your going to have to find out.
Jun 13, 2009 @ 17:03:08
