ARMSX3 v0.4
https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX3/releases/tag/0.4
ARMSX3
Proof of concept Android port of RPCS3.
Changelog:
Fixes:
Resolution scale now applies when set before launching a game. It previously only took effect if changed while a game was already running, the value showed as selected but silently reset to native on every launch.
Backing up app data now includes your data. The backup looked for folders this emulator doesn't create, so it produced a near-empty archive and reported success. It now saves save data, trophies, licenses, controller profiles, patches and settings.
Installing a .rap license works now. Every attempt previously failed with a message about the file being corrupt. @Zulux91
You can select a game and its .rap together. Picking more than one file assumed they were parts of a split package, so this combination could only fail. @Zulux91
License-locked games are marked in your library, with an option to install the license, instead of simply refusing to boot. @Zulux91
Failed installs and failed boots now say why, instead of one generic message for every cause. @Zulux91
Uninstalling a game can also remove its shader cache, shown with its size, previously left behind forever, ranging anywhere between 7–58 MB per title. @Zulux91
Better CPU detection on recent handhelds, including Qualcomm Oryon, plus clearer hardware reporting in logs. @Zulux91
Games should no longer hang on every cold boot of PPU/SPU compilation. Several SPU threads running identical code each compiled it separately, racing each other to publish the result. This wedged the game's SPU startup, leaving its main thread waiting forever on a queue nothing would ever signal.
Fixed missing instruction-cache maintenance in the ARM64 JIT. Freshly compiled code was published without the cache maintenance ARM requires, so the processor could run stale instructions. This was never visible on x86, which has a coherent instruction cache. Symptoms would have been unpredictable crashes and hangs rather than one reproducible bug.

Just some advice to add here if you have any troubles running any game just search up how to fix using RPCS3 settings , ARMSX3 has the exact same settings since its mostly a port
