@Vogtinator is there a way to send files from the android emu to a real calc with an otg cable?

Currently it's not possible to download files from the calc with the mobile UI. Additionally, implementing a second interface to a calc that uses Android's USB stack
would be too much work for a single app and should probably be handled in a different app.

Hello,
I installed the emulator a few days ago. Today I tried to set up a snapshot
I put it in configuration as a normal file in the kit standard
If I try to save to the snapshot via save as it works (after asking me if I want to override the existing file).
If I try to save it says: the actual kit has no snapshot file.

That's your issue, you did not select the snapshot file in the kit configuration correctly.
If you're sure that you tried that, please describe exactly what you did.

If I just leave firebird the timestamp of the snapshot file does not change.
 
If I start firebird again only the changes from my first save are loaded from the snapshot file.

Maybe I misunderstand the functionality but I've expected, that the snapshot file is connected with the kit and If I leave the snapshot is updated, cause in configuration I have set save snapshot on exit (free translation of the german text).

No, that's exactly how it's supposed to work and it behaves correctly here.

Is there any documentation I don't found ? - I've looked on github.

There are a few wiki pages on GitHub explaining the first time setup, but you're already more advanced than that

Edit: I believe I found where the bug is, will likely be fixed in v1.2.

Snapshots contain a delta of the flash image, so if you modify the flash image without updating the snapshot, undefined things happen.
I recommend taking snapshots immediately after saving the flash image. It's also what the mobile apps do by default.

Edit: However, if you update the snapshot and *then* save the flash immediately afterwards, it should work fine as the snapshot's view of the flash and the flash image match up.

It seems to be a great emulator! Unfortunately, I haven't managed to make it work on my Ubuntu 16.04, because of a Qt version issue.

With Firebird 1.2, there are no compiled versions for Linux so I tried to compile the source code myself by following the instructions in the README. But it says that it needs Qt to be at least on the 5.6 version. Everything that I tried to set the version (found on StackOverflow etc.) didn't work, and the only Qt > 5.6 that I could install was in fact a graphical tool.

If I try an older version including the Linux built project, when I run the firebird.sh it says "Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50501) with this library (version 0x50500)"!

Did someone manage to install Firebird for Linux? How did you manage to set up Qt?

Thanks for helping!

I have added the PPA ppa:beineri/opt-qt571-xenial but it still doesn't work. By the way, is it normal that the folder "build" is empty?

I installed qt57base and qt57declarative, but when I run "mkdir -p build", I still get an empty directory, and "qmake .." still results to the message "Project ERROR: You need at least Qt 5.6 to build firebird!".

Legimet helped me to make it work on the chat, thank you very much!

I hadn't cloned the repo but just downloaded the tar.gz, that didn't contain everything. I also had to install the package "qt57quickcontrols", and then it worked ("./firebird" inside "build" to launch it).

May this be useful to somebody else!

_{Edit (Eeems): merged double post}

Thanks for your work on the firebird!
I tried to get it to run on a tablet:
galaxy nexus 10
android 5.1.1
Did load the newest version/1.20. Used polydumper 4.3 on my Nspire cx cas and transferred the 4 files to the tablet. Put this files and os 4.4.0.532 in one folder and deleted the .tns extensions of the 4 nspire files.
Started the firebird apk. At right side there was the keyboard of the nspire. Moved it left, but then I couldn't go on with the 2 installation help files on github.
Selected boot1, went good. Selected the os file, also ok. Third entry for selecting a save point I couldn't serve. Klicking button led me to the folder where firebird is installed (root\data\data...). Couldn't select any file, also simply using save botton didn't work. Changed folder to that where I put all files in at installing, couldn't also select any file, couldn't also not make a new file. So got no save point. Tried then to choose the os file, it got selected and shown in the 3rd 'Flash&Boot' menu, but still I couldn't save anything, also the start bomb told that 'boot1 and/or flash are missing'. At right side they are both shown at the 'boot1' and 'flash' menu entries. Any function for creating a flash save file I can't find. I think the main problem is that I don't get a save point. What to do? Tried the also vers. 1.1 and 0.3 but that didn't help (same problem at 1.1, no keyboard at 0.3).
Tried then the newest windows version but after starting firebird.exe (admin) on a win7-64 notebook I got the info 'api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-l1-2-0.dll' is missing.
Can you help me? Would prefer use the android version.
