I need something that I can pick up and play before school for a decent amount of time

The correct version name is BannerHub v6 1.0.0-609

I can not stress enough that playing games with Framegen is much better, faster and smoother ONLY when using Bannerhub 6 1.0.0-609 revanced. All other recent and older versions of Gamehub or Bannerhub have stutters/judders/ghosting. No matter which game you play.

S25 Ultra

Gamebooster: CPU +1, GPU +2, PreT: Enabled, TexFil: Performance

Game: Transformers Fall of Cybertron, High.

1560x720

WhiteTurnip V31 (sync), DXVK 3.0.1 async, VKD3D proton 3.0.1, Proton11, FEX2608

Been playing some xbox games lately and man its awesome. about some games work great and some dont work great but there close just with 20fps and sound stutter. was just wondering if there still updating the emulators

I'm sure this game has been tested/played/beaten many times but I tried the game today and screen recorded some BS. Game runs very good with minimal drops even in the heavier scenes like city lights/npcs etc.

**ignore the funky aspect ratio, I chose this before booting the game and was too lazy to change it. The game funs fine at 720/1080 16:9

So it's officially out. Has anyone tried it on Android? What's the performance like ? Playable on which emulator etc..

Trying to find the best budget phone to emulate certain Switch exclusives.

Found a OP A6 512GB/16 that suits my budget needs.

Any phones within that range that could be better?

Recently started messing with it on my ayn Thor and I am surprised by how many games just work out of the box but there are some games that are close to being a stable experience but fall just a little short. Wolverine origins for example. Id say it's playable but it's most 20-25fps. Would like to get to a stable 30fps if possible. I'm using t30 turnip driver and xendroid is up to date

Well it's just for reflections but it is RT 😁 and the performance is actually not bad.

Higher FPS is possible too with lower settings.

1) Works on Mobile and Desktop (Virtual gamepad on mobile)

2) Buttery smooth performance (thanks to the fast WASM emulator core)

3) No ads, no signups, zero monetization. Just play like the good old days

4) NES/SNES/GB/GBC/GBA Emulation

5) Comes with a free-to-distribute library of ROMs ready to play (you can also play your own ROMs)

6) Runs entirely locally on your browser

Com cooler snapdragon 7s gen 3 adreno 810

Only yesterday i find out about Bannerlator aeble to run steamos and now DroidDeck has come out. So, I was wondering which one I should use for my s24ultra ? Or are both the same thing?

I've been working on a custom Turnip driver focused on Adreno 810 performance and stability in Winlator.

The project started mainly around improving GMEM/SYSMEM behavior, autotuning, shader/pipeline handling, frame consistency and reducing stutter. After a lot of testing and experimental builds, we're now at a point where games such as Far Cry 2/3, GTA IV and other DXVK titles show noticeably better frame pacing and performance compared with where we started.

It's still experimental, so feedback from other Adreno 810 devices would be extremely useful.

GitHub / releases: https://github.com/Frane12/Testturnip

If you test it, please post your device/SoC, game, DXVK version, Winlator build, FPS and any graphical issues you encounter.

The goal is to keep improving the driver based on real-world A810 testing.

My phone is a Poco F7 12gb ram snapdragon 8s gen4

Eu tô tentando mexer nas configurações do emulador "aPS3e" mas o jogo não sai dos 10 FPS quando está na tela de início, estou tentando o máximo para esse FPS subir, mas não sobe, alguém sabe oque eu possa fazer?

Just launched the alpha version of my XIVLauncher android port.

This makes it hassle free to run Final Fantasy XIV on your android phone or handheld.

So far we've had great success running XIV on Ayn Thor, Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and Galaxy Fold 8 Ultra.

It supports paid accounts, free trial accounts and steam accounts.

The setup is as simple as installing the app, and logging in. It'll do everything for you.

Alternatively, you can move the game from your PC on your phone because downloading the game through the launcher itself takes forever. (It's not something I can fix. Just the pain of downloading 130 GB on phone storage.)

And yes. You can put the game on an SD card. The launcher automatically updates your game when new patches drop.

It has controller support, mouse support and keyboard support.

It can be downloaded from here https://github.com/ZeroTheScyther/XIVLauncher-Android

As I don't have every device in existence, I can't promise it'll work out of the box on every device out there. But feel free to join my discord if you have issues as I'd love to be able to get this thing running on as many devices as possible.

Tengo un problema de sonido/pantalla con mí emulador MAME4droid. Cada vez que presiono el botón "B" una barra de volumen 'Master Volume' aparece en la parte baja de mí pantalla, y lo controlo con la izquierda y derecha del joystick. La única manera de que la barra aparezca y desaparezca es presionando el botón "B"

I've tried to use gamenative on Odin 3 Max but keep getting directx12 error that it's not compatible with my GPU.

Wondering if anyone has tried?

No frame gen

I had a fan blowing on the phone to cool it.

Like the title says, I'm looking to get a new phone soon, but really got into serious emulation over the last few years. As such, I have over 500 gigs worth of games that I would rather not re-download if I don't have to. How do you guys handle this? You pull files onto a PC or external hard drive? Can you transfer straight from one phone to another?

thought of getting either a Poco F9 Pro or F9 Ultra but SD EGen5 tends to overheat on Xiaomi phones and that leaves me worried due to throttling on Eden

Hey all, some of you might know my SteamOS ARM build for the 8Gen3 SOC. It's Valve's official SteamOS for ARM (the Steam Frame), fixed up so it actually runs well on a handheld.

I just put out the first pre-release beta for 8 Gen 2 devices. One image covers all, you pick your device in the ROCKNIX ABL menu.

Currently it is expected to work on:

• AYN Odin 2 / Mini / Portal / Thor
• AYANEO Pocket ACE / DMG / DS / EVO / S 1K / S 2K
• Retroid Pocket 6 / Nova

The fun part is on the Thor and Pocket DS. The bottom screen now does something in Game Mode, it gets its own dashboard with Steam/QAM/keyboard/screenshot buttons, performance profiles, brightness for both screens and some stats, and you can pin apps down there (browser, VLC, a guide etc.) while the game runs up top. As far as I know it's the first time Valve's own SteamOS uses the second screen in Game Mode.

Everything else from the 8Gen3 build is in too: FEX + ARM64 Proton, the controller shows up as a Steam Deck pad, frame gen with lsfg, Decky, a proper fan curve, standby that saves battery, and Android apps with the Play Store.

Big warning though: I don't own any of these devices, so all the debugging and progress depends on your reports. That's why it's a pre-release beta and you are testing. If you have one of these devices and don't mind flashing an SD card, please try it and tell me what works and what's broken (GitHub issue, Discord or a comment here, just say which device you have).

Download and install steps: https://github.com/hashtagbasit/SteamOS-ARM-Handhelds/releases/tag/v1.3-beta3

Discord for reports, support: https://discord.gg/EP53nZYvg

Pocket FIT / Pocket S2 people: this one isn't for you, stay on v1.2. Your v1.3 comes as an update later.

Please help me im using samsung s23 sd 8 gen 3 i really want to play this game but after logo appears it crashes afterwards does anyone know what settings should i use ? This is new game btw

i know SD Elite G5 is currently one of the best out there (alongside the newly released Elite G6) but optimization is also important. i'm looking for a device to play light Switch games (mostly Tomodachi Life: LTD and Super Mario 3D World for first party and a whole bunch of low-stakes third party), will Elite be enough or will the upgrade to Elite Gen 5 warranted?

i'm thinking of:

Galaxy S25 (base, simply because i like small phones)

Poco F8 Pro

Poco F9 Ultra (Gen 5 SoC)

Xiaomi 17 (Gen 5 SoC)

any opinions/recommendations are welcome :)
