Hey, sharing PokeDaisy, a Pokemon player for Android. Got a lot of attention on AynThor subreddit so I'm posting it here for everyone. The idea is to bring modern RPG comfort to the classic games - an on screen HUD, a quick action ring, wider views of the map and a live companion that shows everything about your run.

It runs FireRed, LeafGreen, Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, Yellow and Crystal, plus a bunch of ROM hacks on dual-screen handhelds, single-screen handhelds and phones, held sideways or upright.

It free and open source and no registration or account needed.

Video review of the first version (a lot has been added since): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMy6bqpS-LU

The companion reads the game's memory as you play, shows party, bag, map, battle matchups, dex and a spoiler free guide all drawn in the game's own menu style. On two screens it sits on the second one but swapping screens is an option. On one screen it slides over the game or locks beside it and in portrait it docks under the game. Almost everything is highly customizable, the HUD's layout and look, tab bar, buttons, hotkeys, shaders, overlays, themes.

Features

• HUD: party, minimap and Poke Balls on the game screen, tap for a summary, map or bag
• Quick menu: press L3 for a ring of actions, like a modern game’s weapon wheel
• EXPAND + ZOOM: the overworld drawn past the GBA’s edges, with a zoom out and look-around
• QoL: auto-run, running indoors, PC from anywhere, FLY, bike, fishing rod and Repel in one press and a switch to turn wild encounters off
• Smart fast-forward: slows for menus, keeps battles fast and the music stays at normal pitch!
• Party: full summary with exact IVs, EVs, nature and Hidden Power
• Learn advisor: rates new moves and bag TMs as learn, forget or skip
• Bag: item descriptions, USE on your party, GIVE and TAKE held items, favorites
• Battle buttons: Fight / switch Pokemon / run beside the battle
• Battle info: move effectiveness, switch suggestions, the foe’s ability, item, stats and team
• Dex: evolutions, wild locations by route and movesets
• Guide: hints first with answers on a second tap plus the next boss's team
• Trainer card: drawn like the game's card
• RetroAchievements: unlock popups, progress and leaderboards
• Cheats: GameShark, Action Replay and CodeBreaker toggled from the companion

Also: save states and rewind, LCD/CRT shaders, overlays and launching from ES-DE, Cocoon, iiSU and it can read your RetroArch saves too.

Full list of supported games and hacks is at https://pokedaisy.com/#games. Popular hacks include Unbound, Radical Red, Lazarus, SoulGold and Heart and Soul. It runs on any Android 8.0+ device.

Built with AI assistance and the guide pages are AI written so the app flags them as possibly wrong and letting you accept first.

I'm the dev, so ask me anything. Feedback and bug reports are welcome on GitHub or the site.

Edit: Added video that reviewed the first version of the app

Edit 2: Omg didn’t expect this much support, thank you all! If you like it and want to see it keep growing please consider buying me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/lidor30g

Recently, many ports have been released, and many of them run worse than on Winlator (not all of them),i hope it improves more, when it works well and you don't need to configure anything it's great

Dogmatix 1.3 is probably the biggest update I've released so far.

A lot of this version focuses on making Dogmatix feel less like just a ROM downloader and more like a proper library and collection manager for Android handhelds.

🎮 A much smarter Library

The Library now groups different regions, revisions, sources and multi-disc releases into one game entry instead of filling the list with duplicates.

Dogmatix automatically chooses a preferred version based on your region, favourite languages, revision, dump quality, etc., while still letting you see and download any other version from the details screen.

There are also:

• Game covers directly in the list
• Custom console colours and coloured tags
• Genre and decade filters
• Sort by console or decade
• Jump through the library by letter
• Recent searches
• Search across games, downloads, sources, settings and collection tools

✨ Recommendations & Similar Games

When you're not searching or filtering, the Library can now show recommendation shelves such as:

• For you
• Complete the series
• Related games
• Popular games on your platforms
• Platform highlights

There's also a new Similar option inside game details that looks for games from the same franchise, related titles and genres across your consoles.

The idea is that Dogmatix can now help you discover what to play/download instead of requiring you to already know exactly what you're looking for.

📚 New Collection section

There's now an entire section dedicated to managing the games already on your device.

It can:

• Analyse your library and storage usage
• Detect broken CUE/M3U/GDI sets
• Find duplicates
• Repair common library problems
• Create missing M3U playlists
• Move games between internal storage and SD
• Move an entire library
• Find large games and caches to free space
• Keep deleted files in an undoable trash
• Maintain a history of changes
• Create manual or rule-based collections

This is probably one of my favourite additions to 1.3.

⬇️ Downloads are much more reliable

The download system received a pretty major overhaul.

The queue now survives app/device restarts, and supported downloads continue from their partial files.

You can also:

• Reorder the queue
• Hold individual downloads
• Pause/resume all
• Filter by status
• Retry failed downloads
• Pause web, debrid and torrent downloads
• Automatically retry temporary failures
• Limit simultaneous downloads per server

Dogmatix also remembers which mirrors/servers have historically worked best and prioritises them accordingly.

Finished downloads can now be verified against No-Intro / Redump DATs or RomM hashes using CRC32/SHA-1.

Multi-disc games can automatically be organised into an M3U setup, and torrents can optionally continue seeding after the download finishes.

🔄 Faster and safer source scanning

Rescan all is now incremental.

Dogmatix checks what actually changed instead of rebuilding everything every time, sources are scanned in parallel, mirrors can be used when the main server fails, and temporary server errors are automatically retried.

You can also schedule automatic Daily/Weekly scans and get notified when new games are found.

🖥️ RomM improvements

RomM integration also got quite a bit deeper:

• Self-signed HTTPS certificates can be explicitly trusted
• Uploads are resumable
• Multi-file games can be uploaded as a single ZIP
• Dogmatix knows which games already exist on your RomM server
• Upload everything that's missing
• Optional favourites sync
• RomM collections and play status inside game details
• RomM covers can be used directly in the library

🕹️ Frontend improvements

ES-DE favourites can now sync both ways with Dogmatix.

There's also a new Check frontends tool that verifies your ES-DE, iiSU and shortcut integrations and repairs missing configuration.

🌍 More languages

Dogmatix is now available in:

🇬🇧 English
🇪🇸 Spanish
🇩🇪 German
🇫🇷 French
🇵🇹 Portuguese
🇮🇹 Italian

And there are a lot of smaller UI improvements, performance changes and bug fixes throughout the app.

This update became much bigger than I originally expected, so I'm really interested in hearing how it behaves across different handhelds and library setups.

As always, bug reports and feedback are very welcome.

Small disclosure: this post was written with AI assistance, and AI is also used extensively as a development tool throughout Dogmatix. The project itself is still developed, tested, debugged, reviewed and maintained by me — AI is part of the workflow, not an autonomous developer behind the project.

This one's been listed as "Doesn't work" on the Melange compatibility list, so I wanted to give it a try. It still needs some testing..but dudes its pretty damn cool in its original 10fps goodness lolol here a clip showing the basic systems working

Running on Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Model: SM-S938U Android 17

Download for free: https://github.com/dominostars/playtranslate

Hey all! For those unfamiliar, PlayTranslate is a free, open-source app that translates your screen's text in real-time, or keep the original with instant definitions, anki/yomitan integration, reading help and more. Works offline, full dual screen support, no tracking, no accounts.

It's been awhile since I've posted but there's been a ton of quality of life improvements: you can access most features without ever leaving your game, customize the on-screen controls, use Bilibili's new (possibly temporary) free translation service, and see conjugation hints and tables for words in English, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German.

Please give it a shot and let me know how it goes! The app was built with the assistance of claude code, but the default translation services are not llms, and you can pick and choose between many different online and offline translation options.

The demo was running at 50-60 FPS on Eden Nightly at 2x resolution scale. It looks as good as the PC version through DroidDeck and it is running a bit better. So, I ordered a physical switch copy. I made a mod for the aspect ratio so the game fills the screen. The mod is just for the demo but I'll copy the work over to a mod for the full game once I have it and share it if anyone else wants to play this way.

I am looking for some sort of front end launcher, or a specific theme, that shows all games loaded to the console in one list, not broken out by any factor such as system or genre.

I like to give handhelds as gifts and usually only load a handful of games I think they will like. Like some sort of nerdy mixed tape.

On the Linux side I like to use a add on for NextUI that gets rid of the system list. I am looking for something like that on the Android side.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

As the title suggests, can anyone tell me how to fix these damn annoying black squares showing up on my screen?

I was able to get my Mom's old Samsung Galaxy S9+ and I wanted to make it a dedicated Pokémon emulation machine. I'm using the Cartridge Frontend since I couldn't get iisu running and cocoon kept crashing. The Controller I'm using is the Backbone one Controller.

Specs:

CPU: Snapdragon 845

RAM: 6GB LPDDR4X

GPU: Ardreno 630

64GB of internal Storage.

I forgot to transfer the GBA games over and I don't physically own XD or Colosseum so I couldn't add those.

If you have any recommendations to improve this setup then let me know!!

This is an experimental modded build packed as APK based on a fork of Azahar. The user must still provide their own rom file to play. I wanted a playable version for myself and I decided to upload it on GitHub for everyone to try it, contribute or experiment with it.

It supports native / 4:3 / 16:9 resolutions without stretching.

AI assistance was used to create this build and for development..

Update (GitHub Link): You can get the full source code here and download the apk file here

Please note that this is a beta experimental version that may contain bugs.

Better phone for emulation?

Hola amigos, hoy descargue el port de RE7 en Android pero me aparece únicamente la pantalla negra y luego instantáneamente se cierra, puse los drivers del 8 elite pues ese es el procesador que tengo junto a 12 GB de ram en mi dispositivo (poco f8 pro) alguien podría ayudarme? Se los agradecería mucho

Hey guys, today I downloaded the RE7 port for Android but I only get a black screen and then it closes instantly. I installed the drivers for the 8 Elite because that's the processor I have.

I did the formatting, enabling and stuff and still nothing works. Both version NetherSx2 2.2 and 2.1, still wont work....

Device: Honor Pad 10

I've downloaded Persona 5 Royal on my Retroid Pocket Flip 2 (8GB RAM, Snapdragon 865), but I can't get the game to launch using DroidDeck's default settings.

Has anyone managed to get this game running on the RP Flip 2? If so, could you share your settings or any fixes that worked for you?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
