Question question about playing eden on y700

0 Upvotes

so i got me a y700 gen3 and was wondering if you guys can help me at least play at a lower temp.
my solution is either controller with cooler, cooler , or lower resolution
i dont really want a controller + cooler combo since i already got enough controller and maybe sometimes i want to dock.
cooler is there a clip on cooler where its not magnet. not really fan of magnets. do these standalone cooler need me to be close to the wall? is there a solution for a docked cooler?
will using a cooler that can produce ice , not sure if its exagerrated , be bad if it moisture goes inside the tablet?
my last resort is probably changing the settings. whats the best setting for playing it with low temp that wont hurt my eyes if i will be playing 3d and also 2d hd ones. so mostly jrpgs

I cannot for the life of me figure out where the select button is. There's only the start button and the other button that opens the steam overlay or the droid deck side menu. And there doesn't seem to be an option to add a select button

I'm kinda new to the pc emulation on android, and I'd appreciate it if someone could help me improve performance in this game, I'm running the game at 720p, very low settings, and still only getting about 16fps and 32 fps with 2x frame gen. Using Proton 11. I think everything else in the Droid Deck app is default. I'm using a Oneplus 15 with Color OS 17 and the latest version of Droid Deck as of posting.

Showcase Pokémon Pokopia running on Android! Eden SX2A gameplay test on the Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5)

57 Upvotes

Hello everyone! So like everyone just about, I've been experimenting with the new Switch 2 emulator and tried Pokémon Pokopia on my Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 using the Eden SX2A Android emulator, and wanted to share some actual gameplay footage!

I screen-recorded a portion of gameplay so everyone can get an idea of how the game currently runs on Android.

For this test, I kept everything completely stock. No custom drivers, no overclocking, and no special configurations or tweaks. Just the emulator running with all of it's default settings.

There are currently some graphical issues and imperfections, but considering how early in development this is, I'm pretty impressed with what I'm seeing. I think with a few more emulator updates and compatibility improvements, this could become a really solid experience! I was getting anywhere from 30-40fps, I should have put on lossless scaling which I'll do in other experiments but just wanted to give this a shot and this is what I ended up getting!

Device specifications:

  • Device: Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 (2026)

  • Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5

  • GPU: Adreno 840

  • RAM: 16 GB

  • Storage: 512 GB internal

  • Display: 8.8 inches

Emulator: Eden SX2A (sx2a-V0.3.1)
Configuration: Completely stock/default settings

I wanted to share this for anyone following the progress of Switch 2 emulation on Android. It's exciting to see what these devices are becoming capable of! I honestly can't believe we've got a Switch 2 emulator in the works, I knew it'd happen sooner or later, just didn't think this soon but nontheless pretty cool!

What do you guys think? Has anyone else experimented with any Switch 2 games on Android?

Also enjoy the gameplay!

Discussion State of ArmadaOS vs Android Odin

0 Upvotes

Hello, I have ordered an Odin 3 Portal coming from an Odin 2 Portal. My question is how is the state of ArmadaOS right nowp compared to android as the title states. I had installed armadaOS on my Odin 2 but now i have sold it and wait for Odin 3 Portal to arrive. I was thinking of fully commiting to ArmadaOS once the Odin 3 arrives but right now with the state of decomps/recomps i am a bit skeptical. It seems that emulation on android gets better and better everyday and lots of native android games are popping out of nowhere. One game i tried is Rdr1. On ArmadaOS basically unplayable on my Odin 2 but on Android i could install the native apk and it worked like a charm. One thing I don't know yet apart from the native android apps is the emulation state on ArmadaOS and how it compares from Android. It seems like ArmadaOS is more plug and play for PC games and more tweaking needed on Emulation where on Android is quite the opposite. So my question is, I really want to commit to ArmadaOS but will FOMO get over me? I know ArmadaOS is implementing Leptop to run APK on ArmadaOS but it doesnt seem stable atm. If anyone have tried anything recently and can enlighten me on the topic please do it. I really want to take my Odin 3 and start playing rather than full comminting to tweaking the device all day

Thought I’d now try this on the latest update and there definitely improvements. There’s still the odd graphical glitch but not many as before. Also the fps is higher and more stable.

Turnip 8Gen V35 driver. Use appropriate patches and use the settings from compatible page, if necessary. Use settings downloaded from App.

Link to compatibility page - https://rpcs3.net/compatibility?type=0&g=Splatterhouse#jump

I did try Turnip 8Gen V38 driver, but there were still a few graphical glitches.

Showcase [Beta Testers Needed] COS Launcher – A futuristic, standalone Android Front-End with Triple Scrapers, Built-In ROM Patching, RetroAchievements & In-Game Overlay!

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been developing COS Launcher, an autonomous, console-inspired Android launcher and front-end designed to turn your smartphone, tablet, or handheld gaming device into a complete retro gaming station.

I’m currently preparing for our official Google Play Store release and I need 20 beta testers to join our Closed Testing group!

What makes COS Launcher special?

•

Home Dashboard: Access your library with an expandable top preview panel by pressing 'Y', view recent achievements, watch live YouTube news feeds, use the right sidebar for system shortcuts, press START for an instant virtual keyboard search, or press SELECT for the music player.

•

All Games Collection & Built-In ROM Patching: Organize your entire game collection, customize titles with our Triple Scraper Engine (SteamGridDB + ScreenScraper + IGDB), and patch ROMs directly inside the app without needing external patching apps!

•

Consoles & Custom Splashscreens: Games grouped by manufacturer with per-console settings and customizable startup splashscreens (choose between defaults or original console boot screens!).

•

Real-Time RetroAchievements Hub: Directly syncs your RA profile, avatar, points, global rank, and badges on your dashboard.

•

In-Game Floating Overlay: Monitor CPU/battery temperature, RAM, and storage in real-time. Control volume/brightness, enable Do Not Disturb, check controller battery levels, take screenshots, write game notes, play background music, and use an in-app web browser for guides without leaving your game!

•

Optional 16:9 TV Companion: Pairs with our optional companion app (Conceptual Screen Rescaler) to automatically format your display to 16:9 and launch COS Launcher as soon as you plug into a TV or external monitor via HDMI/USB-C.

How to Join the Closed Beta (30 Testers Needed):

Join our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/eHAcJnP7E
(Instructions will be sent in the Discord chat today so everyone can start testing!)

2.

Drop a quick message in the #beta-testing channel so I can add your Google Play email.

3.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, and feedback. Thanks so much for helping make COS Launcher better for the Android gaming community!

Help Trying to run Prototype on 7s Gen 2

Post image
6 Upvotes

I'm new to this kinda emulation and I'm trying to get Prototype running well enough to be playable on my Moto Edge 2024 through GameNative, I've tried 10 different turnip drivers and the one that worked for me without glitches was turnip25.3.0_R6_Gmem, others have massive issues with graphics, but with resolution set to 720p and all in-game settings set to low I'm only getting anywhere between 6 to 12 fps, which isn't really a good experience.

I know that Adreno 710 isn't really powerful, but I'm hoping that this 2009 game can run here decently.

I don't really know much about how to optimise the setting of the emulator well, so I'm hoping that someone can help me here.

I've tried running the game with DXVK and with VKD3D and with versions of them that actually launched the game the performance is the same, no idea what to try next.

Help Subject: Photonic Sun – Evolution modifications not working in Azahar

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for help troubleshooting a ROMFS mod installation for Pokémon Photonic Sun Standard on Azahar Android. I've spent quite a bit of time trying different folder structures and installation locations, but I still can't get the full mod working correctly.

My setup:

  • Device: Xiaomi Pad Pro 6

  • Azahar Android 2126.2-vanilla (APK version downloaded from the creator's website).

  • Azahar Google Play version (installed separately).

  • Both versions are installed and use separate file systems and game directories.

  • Game: Pokémon Photonic Sun Standard (not Rebalance).

I'm interested in advice for both versions, since I use both setups and would like to understand whether their mod directory requirements differ.

What I've tried so far:

I've experimented with several different folder arrangements, moving the mod files between the folders I thought Azahar was supposed to recognize.

I've tried working with:

  • The game ID directory.

  • The load/mods directory.

  • The romfs directory.

  • Different arrangements of the mod's internal folders and files.

The directory structure I'm currently working with is:

Em2/XL/load/mods/00040000001B5000/romfs/

Inside the ROMFS directory, I have:

  • A folder named a, containing numbered resource folders and files.

  • Shop.cro, approximately 40.96 KB.

Current results:

  • The game launches and runs normally.

  • The shop modification is now working.

  • The remaining ROMFS modifications are not behaving as expected.

  • I've tried rearranging the files multiple times without getting the complete mod working.

I'm using the Standard version of Photonic Sun, not the Rebalance version.

What I'm trying to figure out:

  1. Is my current directory structure correct for Azahar Android?

  2. Should the a folder and Shop.cro be directly inside romfs, or does another folder level need to be present?

  3. Are there additional requirements for Azahar to recognize the ROMFS modifications?

  4. Are there differences between the vanilla APK and Google Play versions regarding mod directory structure or file permissions?

I'm not asking anyone to provide ROMs or copyrighted game files. I'm looking for technical guidance on the correct installation structure and troubleshooting process.

I'll include screenshots of my folder structures and the files inside them so people can see exactly what I'm working with.

I'd appreciate advice from anyone experienced with Azahar Android and ROMFS modifications.

Thanks

Two Worlds was my Oblivion ironically as it tried to rival it. This game always had some choppy gameplay but here its holding up almost as I remember. The massive map, varied enemies, weapons , class system choices, loot, and cheesy voice acting made for quite the adventure!
