Amiga Forever Essentials for Android
I bought this for use on Nvidia Shield TV, but it won't install on the Nvidia Shield TV. It says it's not compatible, which it didn't tell me before purchase. Now I have to borrow an Android phone to download and attempt to transfer the files manually to the Shield.
I am stuck here , there is no ROMs in the folder . This means when I point UAEall2 to that directory there is no data. The directory is (/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.cloanto.amigaforever.essentials/files)
Give just the required files needed, without any headache. Great Job
This is basically the best and cheapest way to get the Amiga Kick-start ROMs for emulation purposes :)
Note you have to install the omiga 500 app too this then makes it work.
Absolute superb a must buy
Even compatable with PC emulators!!!
If you don't have real Amiga hardware you had to resort to piracy to obtain kickstart ROMs to use with emulators out there. Now there's alternative which is not only bargain basement cheap, but boots it with workbench floppy disk image files. Wonderful move, hats off to Cloanto.
For the price you pay you get the best Rom files for your favourite Amiga emulator. I use Omega 500 with these as they are installed automatically. I have a massive Tosec collection so essential indeed.
Same as other people. No files. Only workbench and demo file. Shame.
The rom files are not in the rom folder. What do I need to do now?
It works as it should, the negative reviews are from people not fully understanding it, the kick roms are in there, you just need to properly locate them. Go on YouTube and type in amiga android emulator, the top vid shows two guys using this and uae4all2, full instructions on how to use and where to locate files. You can have it up and running in 5 mins. Well worth the money and I very rarely buy apps!

The demo and workbench ADF files are there and they work, but the ROM directory is empty. Issue shows up using both Omega 500 and UAE4All
I don't really need to say any more than that! Just buy it! :-)
Best way to run old games!!
Even compatable with PC emulators!!!
Heading says it all.
Crap
Just bought it for support as its dirt cheap and i love the amiga:)
Trying over a year to get it going. No ROMs available.
Great to have Amiga on Android! You'll need a third party emulator to make this work, they just supply the ROMs. On Android - search and install UAE4Droid from the playstore (it's free). You'll find the ROMs in DeviceStorage/Android/data/com.cloanto.amigaforever essentials/files. Have fun!
But sadly with the Demos Disk, I couldn't get the Amiga Boing Ball demo to work, using UAE4All2
Uae4droid didn't auto-detect the ROMs+ADFs, but they can easily be found in /sdcard/Android/data/com.cloanto.amigaforever.essentials/files/ (depending on your sdcard/emulated storage path). Thanks, Cloanto!

Paid but nothing is there. Please refund
Just stays on starter page.
I love the Amiga computer its fabulous
I've used many of Cloanto products both on Amiga and Emulation. Just what I needed to get an Emulated Amiga running on my mobile, Keep improving it and hopefully one day Amiga will rise again.
Simple app, does exactly what it needs to.
Downloaded to my phone. Can someone please explain to me what the hell i'm supposed to do with it there. At least redownload it to my PC or give me a refund.
The rom files are not in the rom folder. What do I need to do now?
I've downloaded a few emulators including omega 500. Can't get the games to load up.
Works great, very happy to play them old classics again.
I can find the workbench file but there is nothing in the ROM file. Please help. Using omege 500 app. I want to play games.
Only way to pay for roms is acceptable but information and to reach that info is not that easy.
How does this thing works? Please help
Okay, I bought this, downloaded and installed it, opened and copied the files several times and they are nowhere on my device. Please advise. ---thanks for the tip, found them and working great :) really amazing to be running an amiga on my android

Save yourself the headache and just buy it. Seriously, there is nothing more annoying than scouring the internet looking for these stupid kickstart roms when all you want to do is play Pirates and King of Chicago.
