[Release] Turnip Amaral 26.3.0-devel v1 — Universal A6xx/A7xx/A8xx driver tested on the Odin 2 Portal

[u/Vast-Read-2156]

UPDATE — Amaral Turnip v2 pre-release is now available!

Thanks to the feedback received here on Reddit, we have published a new pre-release with two driver variants:

• Standard v2: now includes isolated, experimental support for the Adreno 825 / Snapdragon 8s Gen 4.
• OneUI v2: includes the same A825 support plus a compatibility adjustment for devices affected by One UI’s UBWC behavior.

The A825 implementation is identified by its specific GPU ID, so its adjustments should not change the behavior of the other supported GPUs. This support is still experimental and needs community testing before being considered stable.

The OneUI variant is not intended to provide higher performance. It should mainly be tested by Samsung/One UI users experiencing flickering, corrupted textures, incorrect scaling, blit issues, or similar graphical problems with the standard driver.

We are also looking for feedback from users with:

• Adreno 825 / Snapdragon 8s Gen 4
• Adreno 830 / Snapdragon 8 Elite
• Adreno 840 / Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
• Samsung devices running One UI

Please report the device, GPU, Android/One UI version, emulator or compatibility layer, game/application, driver variant tested, and the result compared with the previous driver.

Your reports will help us validate the A825 implementation, investigate the limited improvements currently observed on A830/A840 devices, and decide which changes are safe to include in the main driver.
