Description of the issue:
Music Mate 5 is a song app that came pre-installed on several Sony Ericsson Walkman-branded phones. It installs and runs fine on J2ME-Loader, but it experiences some minor issues:
On the main screen, you can choose between 5 different modes, and when you're alternating between them, a piano note sound is played at each button press. The note plays normally but the sound has some crackling.
The first mode on the main screen is "Motion Sensor", where you swing your phone up, down, left or right to trigger the instruments associated with each direction. J2ME-Loader seems to already include accelerometer emulation as I successfully used it in some other games and apps, but it doesn't work on this mode in Music Mate 5. You can workaround this by using 2, 4, 6 and 8 keys, though.
The second mode on the main screen is "Beats", where you can access a beatbox, a classic or modern metronome and a beat detector. The beatbox offer some MIDI based beats and a BPM speed control. The beats play fine but they don't react at all to changes made on the BPM speed control. On the other hand, changes made to the BPM speed control of the modern and classic metronomes are correctly applied to the sound coming from them, although they also have some crackling. And finally, the beat detector: it works by swinging the phone up and down on rhythm, which it detects through the accelerometer and display the actual BPM. While the accelerometer didn't work on the "Motion Sensor" mode, it works here but it's overly sensitive, messing with the precision of the beat detector.
The third and fourth modes are "Guitar" and "Keyboard" respectively, they work normally except for the "Pitch" option on Keyboard mode, which also have some crackling on its sound, similar to the metronome and the selection sound on the main menu. Other than that, those modes are flawless and accurate to my SE W705.
The last mode is "Guitar tuner", which is exactly what its name says: a digital guitar tune. On a real phone it records the microphone to help tuning the chords, but on J2ME-Loader it does nothing, that I assume is because that API isn't implemented on current version, since I don't see a Mic permission for J2ME-Loader on Android's App Settings...
