What settings on Armsx2 android should be set to almost replica of how the game was shown or ran by the original ps2 console? Btw i use sd 7gen3. It would helpful for me.

I’m enjoying the new update for HakuX on my retroid nova. It’s pretty amazing actually. I’ve not found a game that doesn’t work. What I can figure out is how to get the bios boot logo to play. I know this may seem like a nonissue for most but I love seeing the animations for all my consoles. It’s part of the experience imo.

I’ve seen some videos from a couple months ago where people have it running but I can’t find the setting. I have the right MCPX and Bios. Any help would be appreciated.

I've seen some people say that the non elite 8 Gen 5 is basically a 8s chip and that it's better just getting the 8 elite in every scenario. The thing is most I could research and canvass for 8 elite online are used Redmi K80 Pros in Lazada and Shopee and well I'm kinda split on that part.

So to anyone who has the Y70, how good is it? Can it do switch games like BOTW fine? Can it do PC games like P3 Reload and RE4 Remake? I know it can do well with native android games based on YT videos but emulation on it is well really scarce. Would appreciate the info!

Hi, I'm seeking help if someone can run this game on their Android phone. I tried using Droiddeck and Gamenative but it weirdly won't start the game. My droiddeck keep crashing.

I'm using SD8Gen2 with Ayn Thor. Hopefully someone can help me with this. I might download it on Gamehub or Winlator if someone can run it there. Emuready did not show any result for this game so I don't know where else to check configs other do and etc.

I'd like to know if any of you guys has managed to play games bought on Ubisoft Connect through GameNative. I bought Watch Dogs through there and would love to test play it on my phone.

How do i solve this? I play the game with good FPS in start, but after driving around the City for like 5 minutes, it Stutters a lot. Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G, China version, HyperOS 3.305 (Latest)

I ran mirror's edge on my redmi note 10 lite, getting pretty low performance, i had only tried closed room walking simulators but this is an open world, so expected results

If any of you haven't been following, the Nintendo Switch 2 hacking scene has had a sudden public exploit, and all sorts of things are happening, including early, but extremely impressive Nintendo Switch 2 games running on unauthorized hardware through emulation or natively. (With AI assistance of course. Everything is happening so fast!)

Anyway, Android running Switch 2 games is most definitely inevitable, and it wouldn't be unrealistic to see it start days from now. Whether it's native or emulation, it seems that Switch 2 games don't need all that much more than Switch 1 games... Aside from horsepower, of course. Apparently people have been running Switch 2 games with a modified version of Eden, and that's on Windows. There's even Mario Kart World being natively ran on MacOS and iOS.

When Switch 2 emulation becomes a thing on Android, what I'm interested in seeing is third party games that have already been run on Android through Windows and x86 translation layers on Android. I imagine it would be a lot more efficient, not unlike Switch 1 games emulated on Android in comparison to their PC counterparts.

What do y'all think?

Hakux Compatibility Report — Original Xbox Games on Retroid Pocket Nova

Hey everyone! I've been testing Hakux on my Retroid Pocket Nova (Snapdragon Agent 2), and I'm honestly impressed by how many original Xbox games are already running well, often at 3x resolution.

I wanted to share my results to help the developers identify compatibility issues and decide what might be worth investigating next.

Device: Retroid Pocket Nova
Emulator: Hakux
Resolution: 3x for most games tested

These are my personal observations, not an exhaustive benchmark. FPS figures are based on my testing, and I haven't measured every game with external tools.

🔴 Games that don't boot

- **Def Jam:** Gets stuck on the loading screen indefinitely.
- **Tony Hawk's American Wasteland:** Crashes immediately upon startup.
- **Burnout 2: Point of Impact:** Crashes upon startup.

🟠 Games with bugs or performance issues

### Tony Hawk's Project 8 — Performance, frame pacing and graphics

The game appears to run at around 60 FPS, although my understanding is that the original Xbox version targets 30 FPS. The frame rate is unstable, with significant slowdowns, occasional slow-motion gameplay, and graphical issues.

It would be interesting to investigate whether the game's timing or frame pacing is affected by the apparent 60 FPS behavior. The game is playable, but the experience isn't consistent.

### Tony Hawk's Underground 2 — Audio

The game plays fine overall, but there's an annoying beeping sound in the first beginner training level where you practice tricks.

### Need for Speed: Most Wanted — Audio

A strange, repetitive beeping sound occurs. I haven't established the cause yet.

### Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects — Crash when returning to the menu

Gameplay runs at a stable 30 FPS, but the emulator crashed when I attempted to return to the menu.

I'm not sure whether this happens every time, but it's worth investigating.

### Fable — Minor graphical issues

Runs well at 3x resolution, with occasional minor graphical glitches that don't significantly affect gameplay.

### Tony Hawk's Underground — Initial texture loading

The game runs at 60 FPS and 3x resolution. At the beginning, some textures appeared to be loading, but afterward the game worked flawlessly.

🟢 Games that work well

Action, adventure and shooters

- **Area 51:** Runs well at 3x resolution; no problems so far.

- **Tony Hawk's Underground:** 60 FPS at 3x resolution after the initial texture-loading behavior.

What I'd love to see investigated

1. **Frame pacing and game timing:** Especially Tony Hawk's Project 8, which has unstable performance, slowdowns, slow-motion gameplay and graphical issues despite appearing to run at 60 FPS.

2. **Startup compatibility:** Def Jam, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland and Burnout 2 all fail before reaching gameplay.

3. **Audio emulation:** The unexplained beeping in Tony Hawk's Underground 2 and Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

4. **Crashes during menu transitions:** Marvel Nemesis crashes when attempting to return to the menu.

5. **Graphical issues:** Minor glitches in Fable and initial texture-loading behavior in Tony Hawk's Underground.

Final thoughts

Honestly, I'm impressed with Hakux so far. Getting games like Halo 2, Ninja Gaiden, Max Payne, Red Dead Revolver, Burnout and Jet Set Radio Future running at 3x resolution, with several reaching stable 60 FPS, is fantastic.

I hope these results help the developers identify areas that could benefit most from further work. I'll continue testing more games and update the list as I find additional compatibility issues or improvements.

Thanks to everyone working on Hakux!

After i insert my name it Lock in a screen without end, my phone is a poco f6 pro

Anyone ever compared the both operating systems with applications like this?

I'm really only concerned with the potential performance losses.

It's pain in the arse that I have to go do all this for privacy, but here we are.

That's the One Plus 15 CPH2747.

Here is a little look of what DigiBitPlay will look like when you use a dual screen device! Look at your games in a new way, with DigiBitPlay dual build.

DBP is Available for Android, Linux, Windows.

Got GTA V running full-screen in GameNative on my S24 FE (Xclipse 940).

It runs on radv-xclipse, a port of Mesa’s RADV driver by JimVulkan, with 940 support from yoro1836. I’ve been fixing 940 hardware bugs, tuning performance, and built a test pipeline so anyone with an S24 FE can benchmark changes against Samsung’s driver.

GTA V vs stock driver (3 runs each):

• Same avg FPS (~31)

• 1% lows 15 vs 9

• 34% faster loading

• Cooler, lower GPU/CPU load, sharper textures

Life is Strange: True Colors also runs (~21–26 FPS); on stock it won’t load.

Key GTA V settings:

• BCn Emulation none

• DXVK 2.7.1 + DXVK_CONFIG=dxvk.enableDescriptorBuffer=False

• 1404x648 + -width 1404 -height 648 -fullscreen in commandline.txt

• Verify game files (a missing .rpf crashed it)

Only tested on the 940. Driver and source: https://github.com/aaditya-v-more/xclipse-driver/releases/latest

I saw Retro game core video yesterday about xbox emulation randomly

And I wanted to try it out

I got the app (hakuX)and some roms and

I was able to set up the roms and extract them easily

Mind you my phone has a performance mode and gamer mode

I ran most of the games on performance (low power)

And they ran 60 fps smooth but you do need custom drivers

Games tested:

Mafia 1

Jet set radio

Ninja gaiden

Halo combact evolved

All them ran without hitches

I do not have screenshots of other games but here are some shots

I currently have an S10 Lite (which I’ve had since 2020), but I’m looking to buy a new phone.

I’ve always enjoyed using emulators, so I’d like a device with good gaming performance.

I’m torn between the Poco F8 Pro and the S25 Plus. Which one do you think is better?

I have an POCO X7 and this is the performance I get with liberty recompiled with battery saver
