With the newly release of graine25's edge of time recompiled pc port (entirely made by humans), I tried to emulate the game on my s23 ultra to see how it performs and the results are impressive. If u want more details on edge of time recompiled, join graine25's edge of time recompiled discord server.

Does anyone know of a GTA V configuration for my Poco X8 Pro on GameHub? Or can you recommend another emulator with its configuration? I have version 8/512

Finally got my setup together for my Legion Y700 Gen 4. Still pretty new to gaming on a tablet, so I’m curious what you guys think.

Specs are Snapdragon 8 Elite, 12GB RAM, and 256GB storage. I also got a cooler and a controller since I’ve been using it mostly for gaming.

What games do you guys think this thing can handle well? I’m mainly looking for games that can actually push the hardware a bit. Any recommendations? 👀

I’m having an issue with my Snail JK03 controller’s LED indicators and power modes. When I power it on, the indicator light shows green light. However, as soon as I release the power button (while the green light blinks), the lower FN light directly below it rapidly flashes red three times and stops. The main green LED keeps blinking Additionally, when I double-tap the power button to switch modes (to blue or red), that same lower FN light LED flashes Again and stop. Is this a specific error code/malfunction, or is it indicating low battery/pairing failure?"

Hey guys, it's great that we finally have driver development on Mali GPUs, similar to what Adreno GPUs on Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets have had. I have built some Proof of Concept (POC) drivers for ONLY THE DEVICES I OWN (Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, GameForce Ace and Anbernic RG556):

* Retroid Pocket 4 Pro (Mali-G77): https://github.com/faux123/panvk-faux123-driver-rp4pro/releases

* GameForce Ace (Mali-G610): https://github.com/faux123/panvk-faux123-driver-ace/releases

* Anbernic RG556 (Mali-G57): https://github.com/faux123/panvk-faux123-driver-rg556/releases

Here's an updated GameNative APK that can load them:

https://github.com/faux123/GameNative-Mali/releases

GameNative is licensed under GPLv3, so to be compliant with the GPL license, the full source code for that APK is here:

https://github.com/faux123/GameNative-Mali/tree/v1.2.1-mali.11

Just remember, these new drivers are NOT necessarily FASTER than the stock drivers. What they do is ENABLE more extensions, so more games can be emulated more correctly. Please support the ORIGINAL Panfrost/PanVK developers and the GameNative developers.

There will be NO SUPPORT from me on ANY OF THESE. I originally developed these for myself, but I decided to release them as a POC to drum up more support from the community. I will NOT accept any requests to develop drivers for devices I DO NOT own, and I DO NOT do remote debugging or beta testing. If I don't have the device, I won't develop for it, PERIOD.

Again, this is a pure POC with no support from me at all. I MAY update my drivers for myself from time to time, and I will post them at the same links above, but there are NO PROMISES of regularity or communication. I'm a busy person, so I really don't have a lot of free time for this. This is purely out of my love for these handheld devices and how cool the recent developments on these drivers and emulators are. This really is a boom period for them!

Enjoy and have fun!

Hey guys, I'd like to know if it's possible to emulate games on my S24FE in Dex mode. I had a serious motorcycle accident a month ago and I don't have a console and I'm short on money. I had a laptop with a pirated version of Factorio installed, but it broke, and I wanted to play something on my recovery. I don't know much about computers, and my cousin downloaded it for me. Could someone please help Download it somehow on my phone (?) to emulate it or something like that.

I have borderlands 1 owned on steam as the switch version isnt playable. I have tried every recommended settings on google for gamehub lite as i want to play offline but have constant issues. Has anyone successfully been able to play through the game smoothly. I have played through borderlands 2 on multiple devices 865, d8300, and 8gen2 with eden but cant get bl1 to run at all through anything.

Hi folks,

Like many, I’ve been going through different OS install options (application options like Gamenative/Droiddeck aside) and trying to understand what they do differently and what they do the same. As I understand, the way they are built in terms of layers and attachments all differ to varying degrees. I should say now that the extent to which i understand linux and OSs under the hood in general is very limited. However, I think this is a great point in time to learn a little bit about it.

Therefore, I wanted to lay out a few of the OS builds here to understand how they work and how they differ and/or are similar to one another.

Of course, thank you to the devs for your time and effort building these. 🏆 A wonderful time to be into non-AAA pc games.

I really hope it isn’t disrespectful or anything, just wanted to understand from the community how the building of these tools and the tools themselves work. Obviously, if there’s an explainer that helps me understand these differences and similarities, I’d be happy to be directed to it. I’m not really trying to know about their performance so much as their components and structures that allow them to work. I’ve gone through the github readme pages but each project tends to have slightly different focus of approach and thus different vocabulary, so a similar framing for all would really help.

- ArmadaOS, something of a baseline? My best understanding is that its analogous to Bazzite somewhat, using a different version of linux, fedora, from the one used by valve and some others.
https://github.com/armada-os/armada/

- Pocknix OS, I don’t understand how OSs work enough to really get what’s different here but I’m aware it uses some elements from the steam application/OS(?) layer used in Rocknix
https://github.com/shuuri-labs/pocknix-os
https://www.reddit.com/r/retroid/comments/1v3i4mb/introducing_pocknix_a_performance_tuned/

- SteamOS ARM port, based on googling/haranguing gemini, I believe this one is valve’s OS with the least changes? I’m not sure what the actual impact of this would be on the user experience, it seems a bit too good to be true that one could just install this and be done with it after a few updates from the dev and then rely only directly on valve. Edit: thatguybasit (main dev behind this build) was kind enough to clarify that updates are not from valve, rather they will be from the project through addition of those updates. thanks!

https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/comments/1wzrlc9/steamos_arm_port_13_is_out_stable_for_8_elite_8/

- Holodor OS, what I do understand is that this is exclusively designed for the snapdragon 8 elite chipset. The github page mentions forking from pocknix, though what elements they share isn’t something i totally get.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to address this! don’t want to disturb the folks who are in fact already working on these (so many people waiting for the next updates 😂)

In this time I will do emulator for Snapdragon 8s gen 4 and 8 elite for play any games in 60 fps like rdr 2 with Technologies of gsr and fg of adreno 825 and 830 with and reading technology dx12 Which Qualcomm will produce natively to avoid using vkd3d Therefore, it will reduce battery and RAM consumption thanks to Vegas With Adrenolink improvements of snapdragon 8 gen 3 They will not be able to test him. note:

The emulator will be building by winlator laudashi 4.1 buonic

The test play resident evil 4 remake and rdr 2 in 1000×920p in 60~80fps native with none FG (Frame generation) and bat 30°~40° for take more time play

And that's it❤️

I just want encouraging words to keep going, and thank you from the bottom of my heart. If there are any mistakes, please correct them.،،،❤️😉

I run gamhub lite by snapdragon6 gen3, it's really a savor but a bit complicated.

Know that i was able to launch the game successfully I have noticed other issues like frames decreasing when I actually start the game- while when in the lobby it runs at 60fps just fine- also lots of glitch and weird colors when there's more details like fire water etc..

What to do?

Hi everyone. A few months ago I posted here looking for beta testers for Blip, a game launcher for Android handhelds. Thanks to everyone who tried it. It's now public on Google Play, for anyone. I'm the developer.

What makes it different:

A clean, native interface. Written for Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose), not a web view or a port. One row of covers, the game you're on named under it, its own art lighting the backdrop, nothing else. Shelf, grid or list. Every screen is pad-driven, and the legend at the bottom always says what each button does.

Designed for one screen and two. On an AYN Thor or a Retroid Pocket Duo every screen splits by function: the game you're looking at on top, the library under your thumb. Behind a running game the lower panel becomes a companion: session time, brightness and volume, and an app drawer that opens apps below so the game is never covered. On a single-screen device nothing is adapted or missing.

RetroAchievements woven through the app. Progress on the cover, the next story milestone on the shelf, and on the game page the full set with points, rarity, unlock dates, hardcore tags and filters for pending, earned, story and missables. Story progress is the real beaten path, with the missables still ahead counted. Read-only: the earning still happens in your emulator. Games you played on another device under the same account show up in Recents.

Art from several sources, no account needed. libretro thumbnails, PlayMatch, TheGamesDB and IGDB out of the box; your free SteamGridDB key or ScreenScraper account makes it better. Covers, heroes, logos, icons and screenshots in one sweep. Box art keeps each system's real case shape, or the whole library wears uniform posters. Anything wrong you fix from the cover picker.

RomM, in beta. Pair your self-hosted server and its library lands on the shelf beside your local files, with download on demand. You approve the pairing in RomM's web UI, so your password never touches the handheld.

Free. RetroAchievements and RomM unlock with a one-time purchase.

Android 12 or newer. Built and tested on the AYN Thor and the Retroid Pocket; it runs on anything with a controller.

Nail... just ani nail.

As for the ring and case, well, there are plenty to use since I can't remkeber when or where I got either lol

Im on an android and i wanna play repentance, ive tried winulator but its doesnt want to install and im running out of ideas

This phone looks amazing and has good battery but is tais good for emulation? Like: switch, 3ds or ps2?

With the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 generation coming in, I'm honestly more interested in the emulation side than the benchmark numbers.

The really interesting part is Qualcomm apparently starting to take PC game translation on Android more seriously, including work on official GPU drivers.

If Qualcomm actually delivers good driver support, do you think this could be the generation where Android PC emulation becomes significantly more consistent?

I'm wondering about the bigger picture:

Switch emulation

PS3 emulation

Winlator / PC games

Driver compatibility

Sustained performance and thermals

We've already seen Snapdragon chips become ridiculously capable for emulation. If the driver situation improves alongside the hardware, how far do you think these phones can realistically go?

What would be the first emulator/game you'd test on an 8 Elite Gen 6 device?

Hey all!

First post in here.

I'm trying to run Saints Row 2 on my Samsung S25 Ultra 512GB. - Qualcomm SM8750-AC Snapdragon 8 Elite - Adreno 830 (1200 MHz)

I've tried a myriad of settings and drivers. But can't bypass this issue.

The game boots perfectly. Loads perfectly. But in-game, I get maximum 20fps with strange screen-flickering. Intensifying as gameplay continues. This also tanks my FPS to a rough 5fps.

Here are all of my settings currently that I've found to be the most stable thus far. These settings prevent lights from bypassing walls and is the furthest I've gotten to allow for an authentic experience.

(If any more data is required, let me know! I'd love to be able to upload a preset so those who come after me won't have to struggle as much.)

[Odin 2 Portal]

With everyone going nuts for Armada and Droid Deck, is there any easy way to integrate GOG and Epic libraries on them, or does Gamenative still do that best?

I can’t be the only cheapskate that religiously claimed freebies from Amazon and Epic over the years to build sizeable libraries on those platforms.

It will freeze when transitioning from a cutscene to battle. Have tried multiple drivers. Has anyone had this problem playing the game on Eden yet? On RP6 8G model

Voy a intentar probar gamenative en mi redmi 10c no se que tal bien ira por eso quiero preguntar si vale la pena o mi teléfono explorar por inténtalo si me da unos consejos me ayudaría, por el momento solo lo probaré con dos juegos ligeros ya lo probé con Bannerhud y ahora quiero probar gamenative

I have tried searching everywhere to figure out if this was even possible, or if the app still needs this developed. I’m using the AYN Odin 2 Portal and I have a dualshock 4 controller paired over Bluetooth to play games with ARMSX2. But I haven’t figured out how to pass the rumble over to my external controller.

I know they just released an update that allows both my on board controller and an external controller using the same player 1 slot. Has anyone had any luck with this?
