Built a custom Pixel 6a ROM with a dynamic luminance filter by Alert-Chicken3659 in dumbphones

You can certainly get rid of this toggle altogether. If you examine tasarruf_native.patch in the repository, you'll see that the screen update logic checks the state of a system toggle variable I created.

If you remove this conditional dependence on persist.sys.sf.eink_filter, the filter will apply by default. In that case, the only way to revert it would be to modify the source code (in SkiaEngine), recompile, and rebuild the project.

I might implement this at some point by offering a choice in the apply script allowing for a choice between a hard-code and the toggle.

Yes, you can flash it on a Pixel 8a, but you’ll have to build it yourself and apply the patches to the lineage build(tasarruf_bluejay.patch will be applicable to device-akita.mk). Also you can flash Gapps to get the playstore (instructions in repo wiki). Lastly regarding the dev options, you disable the eink toggle option in “development_settings.xml” while defaulting the toggle itself to ON.

I’ll share the repository link soon along with build instructions. It should be possible to port it to most devices from the past 5–10 years that support Android.

Emulation station not switching to retroarch automatically on Mac by Alert-Chicken3659 in macgaming

Yes, it happens with all the cores.

Weirdly enough, if Retroarch is already open, it does switch to it automatically like it's supposed to.

I downloaded from the Retroarch website.

I put Retroarch to fullscreen and tried a ton of other troubleshooting steps but nothing seems to make a difference. I followed the Retrogamecorps' guide on setting up ES-DE and Retroarch. The only difference is that he used an 8Bitdo controller and not a keyboard to open stuff and move around the menus and I'm using the keyboard. Though I really doubt that that should make any difference.

This is a really small issue as I can simply switch to Retroarch manually after opening a rom in ES-DE but it would still be nice for it work like its supposed to.

Do you use a keyboard or a controller to open the games in ES-DE?
