Hello, I downloaded the apk file for AGS to work on Abdroid tablet,  ut it says it can prevent my tablet from sleeping. Is that true? But how exactly do I add games and how do I use it?

The first step is to copy the apk file onto the Android and run it. It will install an app called AGS with a blue cup icon.

I've noticed that your Android device will not sleep while you are playing a game. You just close the game, and it will go back to sleeping normally.

You should have some kind of file browsing app. I have one called MyFiles. After installing the apk, you should see a folder in there called AGS. Just open that and create folders beneath it for all the games you want to play. Then open each folder and copy the game's .exe and any voice files into it. When you launch the AGS blue cup icon you should get a list of all the folders you created. A selection of the folder launches that game.

You can usually use the power USB connection to hook to your PC for copying files. Or dropbox is another way to get the files over. Dropbox has apps for all types of devices.

But how do I type for save games and such?

The coder for this, JJS, said to do a long press to bring up the keyboard. On my phone, a long press brought up the darn Google search. It must work on some Android devices but not others. I did find that you could save one game (without a name). You could then retrieve that one even though you don't see text in the load window. That was the best I could do.
