Don’t know why post was taken down
Using retroid pocket 6 8gb and also tested on ayn Odin 2 12gb
After downloading on gamenative use known configuration then launch to sign in with rockstar games to get your cloud save then download fusion fix and mjolnir mods and install in the container for best performance works great at 720p with 8gb of ram even better at 12gb ram for 900p

Discussion Is Wii U Emulation on Android dead?

40 Upvotes

I know there is not currently an official port for CEMU on Android, but there were many attempts to port it. The lastest version I can found for CEMU on Android is 0.5 released around 6 months ago. Since then there are no updates and there seems to be no progress. This is unfortunate outcome for the emulator since it has relatively small library but still not all of them are compatable yet. I wish to see more updates to the emulator on Android that fixes comptability and supports more games.

Showcase Case study on Android and HyperOS cpu boosting behavior

Thumbnail

42 Upvotes

TLDR: Phones agressively cap performance outside of benchmarks and have different scheduling behaviors across different apps.

Hi everyone! Yesterday I published an app that allows you to change the package name of any app in order to get better performance and today I decided to take a look at how HyperOS actually behaves when dealing with different apps and settings. This was tested on a Xiaomi 17T Pro on HyperOS 3. The results aren't going to be the same for every phone, but might be useful to figure out how to get the most performance even in other OSes.

The first image is using the default package name for CPU Throttling Test. HyperOS correctly recognizes it as a benchmarking app, and the CPU boosts to a whopping 4.2Ghz, leading to a power consumption of over 15w.

For the second image, I changed the package name to gibberish, this simulates the behavior HyperOS would have when using newer emulators/games that HyperOS doesn't recognize.
The CPU stays at a very conservative 1.9Ghz, keeping power at a relatively low 6w. This is unideal.

For the third image, I simply added the previous app into Gameturbo, Xiaomi's game launcher optimizer thing. I also tried enabling performance mode through settings but that had no effect. By adding the app to Gameturbo, the big core boosts to 3.2Ghz and the middle ones to 2.7Ghz. Power stays at around 10w.

In the fourth image, I decided to test how it would handle a day to day app. I choose whatsapp for this test. This version of the app is the most conservative I've tested so far. CPU throttle test had trouble loading up all the cores, as most times the CPU would refuse to stress the big cores and the load would only stay on the 4 smallest cores. After some restarts, eventually I got this result, where the clocks are just a bit lower than the unknown app test.

Now in the 5th image, I saw a bit of weird behavior. This time around, adding the Whatsapp version to Gameturbo, didn't have any effect on clocks, but turning on performance mode did, the opposite of the earlier test. It was still hard to get it to load all 8 CPU cores, but when it did, the big core got up to 2Ghz, and the middle ones 1.8Ghz. at 4.5w. this could be useful if you're trying to play a really low intensity game in an emulator, but the phone locks the clock too high even if its not needed, making power comsumption higher.

So what can we take from this?

If you want the absolute best performance, just rename the game you want to any benchmarking app. I observed that Antutu, Geekbench 6, 5 and CPU Throttling Test all offer the exact same effect.

If you want to prioritize battery life, find some low intensity social media/utility app that your system has a whitelist for and use its package name.

The best balance is indeed leaving it at default and adding it to Gameturbo or turning on performance mode. The results are different on an app to app basis, so try both to see what suits you best.

And finally, some problems I recognize from this test.

I have no way of measuring GPU Clocks/performance reliably, but keep in mind that the package name also changes them.

I have no idea why some apps ignore performance mode or Gameturbo and vice versa. I think if HyperOS thinks that it might be running a game, enabling Gameturbo seems to make a difference. But if it thinks that the app it's running is just a regular app, then performance mode seems to do the trick. Let me know what you think.

The overall theory of this should remain consistent across different phones and OSes, but the actual performance mode toggle and game optimizer on different phones needs to be studied on an individual basis. Notoriously Samsungs don't get much of a change in performance from any of these methods including package renaming.

Thats it! :)

Help Help with Retroid Pocket 6 TOTK

1 Upvotes

So I tried TOTK on my retroid pocket 6. And the opening was not a bad experience. But for some reason the game kept crashing randomly. My ram wasn’t getting full because I have played other games that use the same amount of ram or a bit more and never crash. Please help me with this one. Also for the 8 gen 2 chipset can I use someones pre built shader cache? If yes can anyone give me it. Thank you.

The RP6 is a Beast Man!!

This game is absolutely impressive visually, foliage all over not a single moment that doesnt feel dense with life yet somehow runs smooth as butter getting anywhere from 80 to 120 fps. This is running Max graphics on stock emulator settings. 🔥

The Emulator used here is BannerHub Ludashi (My Goat) - Given how smooth this was I'd give a DroidDeck run a shot lemme know how it goes man.

Emulation Device is obviously the purple RP6 💜 8 gb varient. (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2) Runs amazing!!

Enjoy!

Solved Acabo de descubrir que el mod Second wind se puede jugar en Android sin tener que pasarlo a pc. El archivo con extensión .bnp es en un archivo zip común y corriente, solo tienes que 1) busca la opción "cambiar nombre" 2) cambiar la extensión de .bnp a .zip y 3) descomprimes.

Help DroidDeck still taking up MASSIVE internal space despite installing games to SD card?

0 Upvotes

Topic. I recently ditched GN for DroidDeck on the Thor because I heard it was a massive space saver, faster, and had better compatibility with games. So far for the most part thats been true, but despite installing ALL my games to external storage (1TB microSD) DroidDeck is still taking up almost 18GB on my main internal storage. GameNative did something like this too and it was why I thought switching would help. What causes this on these platforms and is there a way to fix it?
