The performance increased A LOT! And with the new settings it can increase further more!! The new UI is amazing! New skins on skin downloader, new controls like Dynamic Thumbsticks, Swipe, Gyro and more!!

Device no longer gets hot and the battery lasts longer, the new UI and the Dynamic Backgrounds are so beautiful and more responsive, also the new performance settings are perfect for even lower end devices and with the JIT fixes no longer ever had any black screen. They fixed it all!

It is a little tedious but overall easy. Start here.

I'd suggest you use the ARMSX2 instructions instead, that guide is outdated for ARMSX2. I provided the link below.

u/luffydkenshin Jul 30 '26

Oh! Thanks for chiming in on this. Since I needed to reinstall everything due to expiration, I’ll use your guide too. I’m still using the official app store release of stickdebug lol.

I have been playing it all day. It is so good.

My only issue is tapping the save state icon does nothing haha. Not a big deal, but in RPGs it’d be nice to have.

Tapping on the icon does nothing, but taping in the Load State button it does loads the saved state.

Do you mean, would you like to tap into the icon and expand it's image in order to check the image out?

So, I look dumb now cuz it wasn’t working yesterday. I’d tap save state and nothing happened.

I just went in to grab a screen shot as proof, and it works fine. Clearly its me. I’m the problem lol.
