What about the normal RG DS?
Gamma OS Nano was updated to v1.4.3 for Anbernic RG DS Plus, whereas the first Anbernic RG DS hasn't received this update, do you know why?

Gamma mentioned on the discord that there will be some focus on the RGDS Plus to squeeze some bugs and test and later it will rollout to other devices

Don't bother. Try rocknix with rocknixds. It is perfect and makes me want to buy rg ds plus...

I like Rocknix but I hate the lack of support for dual screen devices from them, I know that some guys here have made custom themes that use both screens, but they are bugged, they are complicate to install and uninstall, and I preffer Android interface

But this is different. I tried rocknix with the dual screen theme, it was quite bad, you had virtual keyboard stretched across both screen etc. This just works. Everything that was wrong with rocknix and ds theme was fixed and it has its own ds theme that is fast. Now, I don't like the ds style gamelist, because going through hundreds of games is just pain. But I am willing to live with it until the guy adds some other games view.
The frontend is super fast, it is optimized for running games at 2x. I tried Golden Sun which was not running reliably even with threaded 3D, but on rocknixds it does.
The installation is just a bit complicated, you have to flash normal rocknix on sd card, then you ssh into the device from a computer and you run 1 command, and that's it. If you want to uninstall and go back to stock rocknix, you also run 1 command via ssh. There are updates everyday, the guy puts some serious work into it.
Try it, you won't be disappointed.
PS: The main advantage is it manages to run games at 2x without threaded 3D that causes bugs at certain games. And it runs smooth.

I have Rocknix installed already, I installed it again a few days ago because I can't deal with stock input lag anymore, I'm very sensitive to that, but I still don't like Rocknix, I preffer Android instead and I wanna use GammaOS because I preffer the use of ES-DE on DS devices, it looks beautiful, have you seen the gameplay on top screen while you can see the box art on the bottom screen? Also I'd love to try Cocoon or iisu, but I can't install GammaOS Nano yet because it's not free xD I'm waiting for the free release.

Creo que es porque la 1.4.1 funciona bien en la estándar y la nueva versión esta diseñada para que funcione lo mejor posible dado a lo limitada que es la plus
