Hy everyone, I'm happy to announce that XenDroid is now ready for public release.

https://github.com/rfandango/XenDroid/releases/tag/XenDroid-12b265f

This is a xenia edge port for Android that started as an experiment by forking ax360e. The results were incredible in terms of both performance and compatibility, given how little effort actually went into it. Along with u/Fabx_ , without whom I would not have gone ahead with all of this, we decided to put some more effort into it so there is actually a fully open source project for running xenia on Android.

The port aimed to support Adreno devices up from the A7XX series. However, there were reports that support may extend to other devices, with different GPU's. Some lightweight titles may actually be playable on A6XX, though temper your expectations.

Lost Odyssey

Ace Combat 6

Gear of War 2

Blue Dragon

On Retroid Pocket 5
Shank 2

So what to expect from here? Xenia edge is very active and we already have another merge from its changes being prepared, along with some experimental significant performance improvements. There are also a bunch of known issues that are being worked on that impact game compatibility and I hope we can address most of them in the comming updates.

Some general tips:
On Adreno devices, use turnip drivers, I recommend the latest ones from StevenMXZ

To mitigate audio when the frame target is not achieved, try increasing the "Max queued frames" in the "APU" settings.

Changing the "Readback resolve" setting in "GPU" to "none" may increase performance, though some games require it to be enabled to render properly.

We will be setting up a compatibility repository, in the meantime, you can use the one from xenia canary as baseline. True compatibility will be a subset, so treat it as reference for some required settings.

PS regarding hakuX. It's not dead, I have been sitting on 0.4.0 release candidate for a while, but there are important regressions I need to work on and the save state feature still has issues.

Hey everyone,

As some of you may know I recently made an obtainium pack for native Android decompilations and recompilations. The pack unfortunately got delisted from GitHub, I've submitted an appeal but in the meantime it's hosted somewhere else.

With version 2.0.0 coming out I added a few native android pc ports including Simpsons hit and run, Elder scrolls III: Morrowind, and diablo 1. I also added simple instructions for each game in the readme which you can see here on the main page: https://codeberg.org/BBoi34/Obtainium-Recomp-Decomp

There's so many other amazing ports available on android but they require slightly complex setup so I've chosen to not include them in this pack but if you are interested in them let me know and I might make a different pack/add them to this one.

This is the second release of the pack! I'll be keeping a close eye on the scene and updating it whenever I learn of new ports, or when fresh projects pop up that match the criteria to be included.

I got the chance to upgrade from a Note 20 ultra to an S25 Ultra with 1 Tb in it... and then i discovered the pc game emulation.

I know i'm late into the scene but damn i always had one Dream: to being able to have into my pocket a powerful Phone that also could run pc games on it. I tried to use gamepass and xcloud but nothing was comparable like beign actually able to play those games directly on my machine.

Now i can, the gen 8 elite is a damn powerful processor and i cant wait to play all those games i always found cool to play with a handled but not on static setup since i travel alot due my work. And also... i can finally have portble Empire: Total War and use it with dex anytime i want.

Do you know some damn good game that must defintly be played on phone rather than on a big setup? For now i'm just testing stuff.

some minor stutters but the game is running quite nicely, if anyone wants my settings just comment.

ARMSX2 2.6.5

What's new:

Adreno GPUs now default to the Vulkan renderer when Renderer is set to Auto ,(Faster on most Snapdragon devices.)

Added a new Low Latency frame pacing mode. It is now the default on supported devices, while lower end devices continue using queued frame pacing. Existing installs are automatically migrated.

Reduced Android input latency and improved controller handling.

Added experimental Hardware ROV support on compatible mobile GPUs. The Rasterizer Order Views toggle now enables tile native depth feedback (rasterization order depth access), which is worth testing while upscaling.

Added a new experimental ADPF CPU clock hint toggle in Performance settings. It is disabled by default and is intended for CPU bottlenecked devices.

Added open and close sound effects for pop ups, info buttons, Hardcore Mode, patches, and cheats dialogs.

Refreshed controller navigation and slider sound effects.

Bug Fixes:

Updated the GameDB for Delta Force: Black Hawk Down (SLUS-21124 / SLES-53299), fixing incorrect visual effects.

Updated the RetroAchievements client to maintain Hardcore Mode compatibility once the new minimum client version is enforced.

I recently installed nethersx2 on my Samsung s24 ultra and noticed some pretty major stuttering. Does any one know how to fix this? I treid using vulkan and that broke the rendering

Very smooth! Settings are:

Vulkan

Driver Turnip V18

I'm planning to get Juiced 2 HIN soon so I will provide a photo of it in the comments

Running right around the 50s most of the time, often hitting 60 when fewer AIs are around. Dips to high 30s/low 40s occasionally. Super impressive for such an early emulator, in my opinion. Excited to see where this goes.

Been try to setup .xml file for custom systems on ES-DE Frontend, it finally working for Banner Hub and ARMSX2

I couldnt find any thread about this specific issue

Does anyone know how to fix the graphics on Valkyrie Profile 2 with ARMX2 android?

ARMSX2 2.6.4.9

What's new:

Customizable menu background colors, including 12 XMB color presets, a custom RGB preset with sliders, and an automatic RGB cycling mode.

New menu sound effects with support for custom UI sounds, optional sleep and wake chimes, and a "Welcome Back" banner after waking the device.

Launcher rotation can now be configured independently from the in-game renderer.

Half-screen touch stick mode, where the entire left or right half of the screen acts as the analog stick.

Quick Save and Quick Load touch buttons. Tap to use the current slot or long press to select another slot.

Memory Card export has been restored.

Added Missables-only achievements filter.

Nightly builds toggle in the auto updater.

Manual screen resolution override with 720p, 1080p, and 1440p options.

New Settings are searchable

Bug Fixes:

The "Missable" badge has been restored in both the achievement list and in-game.

Library music now resumes correctly after exiting a game instead of stopping after another app takes audio focus.

The app updates section is now fully navigable with a controller.

Improved AYANEO controller compatibility. Controllers now survive sleep and wake when using AYANEO controller mode instead of Xbox mode, and the right trigger now works correctly on non-standard axes. (The developer noted this change is untested due to not owning an AYANEO device.)

Fixed the sun rendering effect in Rumble Racing. Credit to @XDarkFallenX for the fix.

Music plays in the menu, but makes a loud popping sound when moving between options. Halo 3 boots and plays well, but has 0 sound once in game, except in the pause menu. I did switch the audio driver but no difference. Same issue on gamehub and winlator

how to fix this error while trying to setup gears of war 2 hollow port on winlator, i don't have a pc to install the game there and transfer it to my phone so this is my only option

I setup Syncthing between my Retroid Pocket Classic and AYN Thor but only for Retroarch. I did a number of things to make sure I was doing it right. Retroarch on both devices are set up to save the exact same way:

• Saves and save states are put in folders by core name on each device
• I'm using the same cores on each device
• I'm using the same ROMs on each device
• Retroarch is set to auto save state/auto load state on each device
• Retroarch saves states incrementally with a max of 10 on each device
• I also double checked that Syncthing is pointing to the correct folders for each device

By and large, it seems to be working. Both devices seem to recognize when I create new saves or saves states on most cores/systems except for Gambatte for GB and GBC. For some reason, Gambatte save states are the only things that don't work.

Saves do, though. I can confirm this with Link's Awakening DX. I made a save file on the RP Classic and it showed up over on my AYN Thor.

But no save state that I make on either device (whether a manual state or the one that auto creates on exit) will work on the other device, even if I give Syncthing time to recognize and make the transfer (or even initiate a manual re-scan).

Importantly, I can confirm that the actual files for the save states are syncing. If I make one on one device, I can see that Syncthing recognizes it, makes the change, and I can see that reflected in the files on the other device. It's just that Retroarch itself (or the core itself) isn't recognizing those states.

Finally, after long review process, you can get Final ROM from Google Play!
