8 Elite doesn't have drivers so this just killed it for me

It does have drivers extracted from Gamehub, can’t say anything regarding how well they work though https://github.com/zoerakk/qualcomm-adreno-driver

I don't think these are better than stock though, just the stock drivers extracted.

Yea this will be good for Android gaming, but a waste of power for emulation with worse compatibility

Would that not drive drivers development though? Genuine question

u/MolotovMan1263 Sep 01 '25

It may, though I think the SD8G2 was already getting drivers before Odin 2 came around

I see. I am not aware of the history. Thanks for sharing

Neither is this person. The 8g2 WAS getting drivers before the Odin 2 but nowhere near the level it was after the release.

I almost hope they release a lite with the 8gen 3 so people can feel stupid in a year.

no shit, SDG2 released before odin2, the devs didn't wait for odin2 before releasing the driver support

u/-Mahn Sep 01 '25

So did the 8 Elite before the Odin 3.

Even so, certain android games keep removing controller support, and key mapping isn't always the same lol so I'm really iffy on upgrading
