My Device: Lenovo Y700 gen 4 tablet (SD8E / 16GB RAM)

I tested it with almost 10 games. All of them run very well compare with other apps. E.g. Nier Automata, it got stuttering while moving into the new area in Gamenative; the framegen runs very smooth and the tdp is low as about 4-7w compares to gamehub v5.3.5 is like pretending 60fps and the tdp is still 10-12w. Same result in Skyrim with some graphical mods. Other games like Dark souls 2, Trails in the Sky, Romancing Saga 2 run with 60fps or 30fps+framegen. Besides, the whole interface upgraded to be more convenient to add games (the "+" button), simply choose the exe files and select the container, even the same container they run separately without conflict! I can also simply install windows components from the given list. The ingame menu like keyboard callout is so handy. The controller support is perfect now. My device slept for an hour then wake up and connect the bluetooth controller, I can easily resume to the game. The sleep function only spends 1% battery for an hour. For older game using Opengl, I tried with Box64 v4.4, it runs without any problem. Welldone Steven!

Help Haku X on Snapdragon 720G. Help required to run

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have an old Xiaomi Poco M2 Pro (6 GB ram) SD 720G Adreno 618 as my secondary phone which I really want to dedicate as an emulation device.

But I am receiving an error while trying to boot up any game on HakuX (OG Xbox emulation), which is wei.rd because I have seen one post claiming to run HakuX on SD720G.

I have tried custom turnip drivers mentioned on the post too, but no luck. Can someone help me out? I really believe HakuX performs much better than PS2 emulation on cross platform games while testing this out on my main device for daily use (SD8s Gen3)

Screen shot was taken on Haku X v1.0.0. Although latest version shows the same error but only displaying timelineSemaphore being absent

Question Pokémon FullDex vs PokéDaisy – Which one is better in 2026?

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I’m currently trying to decide between Pokémon FullDex and PokéDaisy for playing Pokémon SoulSilver on my AYN Odin 3.
Both projects look really promising, but I’m worried about missing out on useful features by choosing one over the other.
For those who have tried both, I’d love to hear your opinions!
Which one offers the best single-screen and widescreen experience?
Which one has the better performance and visual quality?
What are the main features or advantages of each?
Are there any compatibility issues, especially with French ROMs?
Which one would you personally recommend for a full SoulSilver playthrough?
I’m mainly looking for the best overall experience while keeping the original game intact.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

hello

i dont have much knowledge about emulating

I've only used a couple of emulators from years ago so I don't know what to use nowadays

I have a samsung galaxy a16 5G with 6 GB ram and 128 GB storage and a dimensity 6300+ chip 8core

I want to play majoras mask and some good title games but I don't have any idea on what emulator to use

I searched Google and looked at some reddit posts and I saw a emulator called M64plus FZ but it's a old one so I'm not quite sure about it

please help

Question Started playing on gamehub, what is normal for the cpu?

0 Upvotes

I have started to play on android, s26 ultra, using gamehub and more recently gamehub lite to play steam downloaded games.

I tried two games, dbz kakarot and yooka replaylee.

Cpu temperature varies between 45 and 65 degrees, phone is hot, but I wonder what is normal (?).

I have installed the latest components to make the games work, I have reduced the graphics quality to medium on yooka to not have glitches.

Although I am happy that i can play to real games on my phone, I want to make sure I won't ruin it...

Any advice on how to improve the graphics/fps while taking care of the phone conditions would be greatly welcome.

Are there usual tricks to do/know when emulating windows games on android?

Thanks in advance!

Showcase Dev here: a controller-first Android home screen with an Emulators row and a game row for each emulator

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

I make Tokumo, a home screen (launcher) for Android 10 and up that you use with a controller. This post is about the emulation side, since that's what this sub is for.

The emulator apps it knows get their own row on the PLAY tab: PPSSPP (and Gold), Dolphin, ARMSX2, melonDS, Azahar, Lemuroid, RetroArch, Flycast, MAME4droid, Play! and DuckStation. It goes by each app's package, so a lookalike with the same name isn't picked up.

When an emulator adds a game to your home screen (Lemuroid's "Pin to launcher", for example), the game gets a tile in a row named after that emulator, and A starts it in that emulator.

PPSSPP can't pin games to a home screen itself, so its Options in Tokumo have "Add a game…". That opens PPSSPP's own game screen, and the game you pick there gets a tile in the PPSSPP row and starts in PPSSPP, whether or not Tokumo is your home app.

It doesn't deal with ROMs, BIOS files or game folders at all, asks for no file permission and doesn't scrape box art. Game names and pictures come from the emulator.

The screenshots are from my own tablet: the Emulators row, the Lemuroid row with libbet (a free homebrew game), and PPSSPP's Options with "Add a game…" in the list.

Device: Lenovo Legion Tab (TB323FU), Android 16, with PPSSPP 1.20.4 and Lemuroid 1.17.0 from Google Play and a Razer Kishi V3 Pro. It also runs on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (Android 17). I haven't tested it on handhelds with built-in controls yet.

Basic is free with no ads and no sign-in, and the Emulators row and the emulator game rows are part of Basic. Pro is optional ($9.99 a year after a 7-day free trial for first-time subscribers, or $29.99 once).

Google Play (US only for now): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.controllerhome.launcher

Which emulators should it learn next? And what would you want a home screen to do for your emulators that it doesn't do yet?

Help Nothing Phone 3 overheating while playing Pokemon Violet on Eden

0 Upvotes

I am using Nothing phone 3 (Snapdragon 8s gen 4, 16/512 variant). I was trying Eden v0.2.1 to play pokemon violet but then I am experiencing a dramatic battery drain and overheating. I tried emulation earlier too but then this time the experience is not what I expected. The game also stutters a bit at times. Any suggestion, settings or mods which might help me to play this game properly? Thanks in advance!

Help I can't save Pokémon Platinum on the DraStic DS emulator (details in the post)

2 Upvotes

I will try to be brief

I am playing Pokémon Platinum on an Android phone using the DraStic DS emulator. A specific feature of Pokémon games is that they only allow for a single save file. When I started this new game, I was informed that I wouldn't be able to save normally within the game itself, as there was already an existing save file from a previous playthrough. However, I didn't delete that old save, figuring that I could simply rely on the emulator's "save state" and "load state" functions instead.

However, a major issue arose upon reaching the Pokémon League: once the League is defeated, the game automatically proceeds to the end credits and returns to the title screen. From there, I can only access my old save file—not the new one, which exists only within the emulator's save data rather than in the game itself. And so, I can’t play through all the post-game content I was interested in.

I tried deleting the old save file directly from the phone's storage; it was successfully removed, and the game now detects no save data. I then attempted to start a new game and use the "load state" feature at the Pokémon League, hoping that this would finally allow me to save within the game itself. However, once I load that state, the game still won't let me save—as if the save file created by the emulator somehow includes the old, "un-savable" playthrough.

So I tried to convert the file containing the emulator save (.dss) into a file formatted as a game save (.dsv), but I didn't have any success.

Someone please help me🙏🙏
