Adding roms from Android device
-
Is it possibe to add roms to the sd card from an android device if a pc isn't available? Either by inserting the sd card directly into the phone/tablet or over a WiFi network?
-
Sure. The most user-friendly method is probably to use an Android file manager application with SSH/SFTP support like ES File Explorer. This particular app is free and supports almost any file transfer method you can think of.

ES File Explorer is very usefull. I can use my Android to take a ROM from a computer and send to the raspi directly. I love this feature! -
Es file explorer is starting to get malware. May want to try solid explorer

One of the most disappointing aspects of watching time pass is seeing your favorites fall from grace. I really hate to hear that. Thanks for the recommendation.

@vondes I don't see why any screen casting software wouldn't work on games you play natively on your phone.
