Wow! Amazing! Thank you very much.
+1 to Ezreal: Please, add filters (at least like interalced filter)

Any idea if multiline gameshark codes should work with this? I tried splitting the codes by line to individual cheats as some emulators seem to support them like that but couldn't get it to work with jBoy.

Very very good! On my xa2,the fps is 60. So wonderful! It would be greater if you could add filters.

Here's an example of how to take advantage of TOHKBD and other physical keyboards if you want to support them (because they're a lot easier to use for pressing buttons than touch screens): https://github.com/walokra/sailimgur/blob/master/qml/pages/AlbumInfoColu...

Which license does this use? Is there any possibility to see the sources?

The UI is great, especially the gesture support. Unfortunately, Final Fantasy 6 keeps crashing when Terra flies away :( I activated logging to file, but the file is empty.

It has comparable alignment issues on the tablet as with the initial gameboy color emulator release. The [L] + [R] key overlap screen (in screenwidth mode) in portrait, there is room enough to move them a bit downwards. [A] + [B] + [cursor right] overlap in landscape in screenwidth mode, but it could be hard to avoid that.
Hope you can check with the Sailfish emulator once again. Other than that, great job again!
