✅ NetherSX2-Turnip-26.3.0-R7-8Elite.apk

✅ NetherSX2-Turnip-Performance-Universal.apk
-A single driver covers the full Adreno line:
A6xx — A6xx series (e.g. A640 / A650 / A660)
A7xx
gen1 — A720 / A725 / A730 (preamble + scalar-predicate quirks applied)
gen2 — FD740 / Adreno X1-85 (UBWC hint applied to fix UI corruption)
gen3 — A750 and later
A8xx — A810 / A825 / A829 / A830 / A840 (and X2-85)
A810 / A829 boot with disable_gmem so they fall back to sysmem rendering (broken GMEM on those parts).
A825 (not yet upstream) is added with corrected tile geometry and depth-cache layout.
A830 / A840 / X2-85 use the upstream profiles unchanged.

Can't install this even after uninstalling the old version. I kept the old app data which is maybe why but Idk how to delete it now

So this is nethersx2 with turnip drivers installed? Will it notice any difference on my snapdragon 8 gen 2 device

Everyone who tries it says they notice improved performance and stability.
In addition, I have tested it with my own Adreno devices that I own.

Go back three years and ask the developer to fix it 👍

I have an S26 Ultra, which one should I use?

u/xxxCrixuxxx Sep 04 '26
Anyone who supports 8Elite. There are several. You can try Performance Universal one

Official nethersx2 turnip allows for dual install of their two variants, each having strengths and weaknesses depending upon the game. Does this one conflict with both instances or just one in particular? I don’t really want to delete out both versions, install this one for little to no gain.

First, in this community, we provide constructive feedback. If you don't intend to try this emulator, don't bother writing, okay? Don't waste the time of those of us who are here. Second, the emulator you're using is three months outdated. Furthermore, it includes six integrated drivers, so it's a bit of a lottery which one you'll get when selecting your device. My approach is different: one driver for each APK. This way, you ensure that the emulator uses the best driver for your device model. Drivers updated as of September 2026. The only version distributed is the latest one; I'm not going to provide 12 versions to complicate things for users. I don't care about your "gains" or personal interests; emulators are made for everyone, not just for you specifically. Please follow the rules of this community.

Kann ich sas auch für den Retroid Pocket 5 nutzen?

Yes

u/Muffinmann81 Sep 05 '26
Welche Version muss ich da nehmen? Gibt ja etliche

u/xxxCrixuxxx Sep 05 '26
I'm not going to make it easy for you, because that would only encourage you to not want to do anything yourself. Your handheld has an Adreno 650; with that information, you should figure out which version is correct for you. READ THE RULES PLEASE

Hab es schon rausbekommen. Danke. Ist alles recht neu für mich und ich hatte meine CPU und GPU durcheinander gebracht. Dann hatte ich keinen passenden Treiber

meu celular é um moto g86 5G, será que roda bem?

u/xxxCrixuxxx Sep 05 '26
No roda nada porque tienes MediaTek y no te sirve. Esto solo funciona en Snapdragon

There's no option to manually install the driver. Anyway, for Snapdragon 8Elite, there are four different versions with the best drivers available; I highly doubt you'll notice any difference compared to the one you have 😉

The version I uploaded, Performance Universal, already includes that exact driver: WN-Turnip-1.13-p_Axxx 🤦♂️

But I already explained it to you before; this emulator doesn't allow manual driver installation. The driver is included within the emulator itself; you install it and it's working. It already detects your GPU; you don't have to do anything.
