an account to post about emulators unrelated to this project?

we don't -ever- provide releases named like that.

I believe I found the answer. Now, I could not find a way to literally take gameboid saves and transfer then and have gameboid read those saves, BUT, I did find a way to take a direct rom copy (with in game saves) to transfer and use on a new device. So for example, Fire Emblem 6/7 can hold up to 3 saves within the in game data correct? Using this knowledge, all you need to do is make sure you have the GBA save type saved as flash 128kb within the "other settings" submenu in the settings menu. Once you have done this, simply find the winrar file for fire emblem and find another file with the same name as the fire emblem apk file, but this file should be listed as a .SAV file. For example...

 

Fire_emblem_fuuin_no_tsurugi_v1.0.zip (This is the winrar file)

 

Fire_emblem_fuuin_no_tsurugi_v1.0.sav (This is the save file)

 

Copy them from your old phone, to your PC, then transfer the PC copied files onto your new phone. Open up fire emblem and you'll have the in game save files with the exact chapter that you're on. Now to make sure it saves from where you want it to, either complete the chapter and save it on any location of the 3 saves in game or end your turn in game and check what time the file was modified (hinting that it saved) to see if it did save when you ended your turn. Hope this helped a little bit.
