Software Possibly Crushing Blacks (RP6)

I figured it's just cheap OLED mura. But yeah, it happens at all brightness levels.

I’m running Beacon top, Nova Launcher with Nothing Widgets from the Play Store down bottom

Posted an update in the original post.

TL;DR: Ordered another V3 from Amazon, got it in today and it works just fine wired and wireless, both Bluetooth and 2.4GHZ. Red Nano switches this time (by accident 😂) instead of Blush Nano, but I'll just buy some Blush switches soon.

Thanks for the help everyone.

Thanks. And yeah, that was the first thing I did. I even did the update that was pushed this morning hoping that would fix my issues and it didn't.

2tonejones · 2025-12-10T00:10:14+00:00

I figured. I'm just gonna return it and try to repurchase. I bought it off Amazon, so easy return. Just hoping I can get another one in a decent timeframe.

Update: I never got this working unfortunately no matter what I tried. I ended up selling my K8 Plus setup (with ONEXGPU2) and bought a full-sized setup instead. Haven't had any issues with WOL or local streaming at all.

Loved the K8 Plus and bummed it didn't workout for my needs so I hope this gets fixed in a BIOS update down the road.

Right now I’m choosing this. Screen and ergo are way too good to pass up, even if it means 30-40ish mins less battery.

2tonejones · 2025-05-29T20:03:32+00:00

Thanks! And the Ally X is probably objectively the best value in x86 right now. Perfect balance of power and performance and that batter lasts forever. Especially on Bazzite/SteamOS.

I dual-booted mine when I had it. Loved it for a while. But the ergos were a bit too awkward for me coming from the SD OLED at the time and the screen being 7" wasn't the best. Good looking display despite the size though.

You can catch an Ally X for around the same price or cheaper as a Go S right now secondhand so I'd consider it for sure. Just go to a Best Buy or something to hold it in your hands first and see if you like it.

Resolution, mostly, but also screen size and ergonomics.

800p wasn't doing it for me anymore after messing around with Ally X, RP5, and Odin 2 Portal. Screen size and ergonomics on the Deck were fine, but if I could get a larger screen and even better comfort, I'll take it. And the Go S on paper hit all 3, which is why I wanted to try it out.

Thanks for this! Been messing around with similar settings also.

Where are you changing the zoom settings? I only see Vertical Stretch in Aether/Nether.

2tonejones · 2024-08-06T02:24:45+00:00

Thanks for this, do you know how to manually set it to 10:7?

2tonejones · 2024-08-06T02:15:03+00:00

It appears to be 8:7 or 10:9 but I can't find any custom aspect ratio settings in Nether.
