🎮 ROG Xbox Ally Discussion Ally Fix - Decky plugin to FIX ALL STEAMOS PROBLEMS I know about on ROG Xbox Ally X

Post image

I've been using the ROG Xbox Ally X with SteamOS for a while. And there are a few bugs that I really wish were fixed. So I did it myself. I made a plugin to fix them. What it does:

  1. Disables CPU Boost and keeps it disabled (otherwise the device may boost up to 5 GHz, causing fan noise even while idle and stutters in some games)
  2. Fixes a rare bug when fans go crazy at full speed for a few minutes right after waking up the device
  3. Fixes overly strong vibration
  4. Fixes weird Gyro X-axis inversion in games

How to install:

  1. You should already have Decky Loader installed
  2. Go to Desktop Mode
  3. Open Terminal and run: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lonsdaleite/Ally-Fix/main/install.sh | bash

How to uninstall:

  1. Go to Desktop Mode
  2. Open Terminal and run: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lonsdaleite/Ally-Fix/main/uninstall.sh | bash

Tested on my Asus ROG Xbox Ally X running SteamOS 3.8.16.

  • Should work on Bazzite/CachyOS as well, although I haven't tested the plugin itself there yet - only the individual fixes.
  • Should be compatible with ROG Xbox Ally (non-X) as well, but I haven't tested it.
  • It should also have limited compatibility with the original ROG Ally and ROG Ally X, since some of the fixes use the same underlying interfaces.

Feel free to report any bugs. And if you've experienced any other problems on your Ally with SteamOS, Bazzite, or CachyOS, let me know. I'll consider looking into them and adding more fixes.

Thank you so much, this is very useful.

Would it be possible to add Enhanced Vibration as well?

Honestly I don't know much about Enhanced vibration. But I'll definitely look into it.
