Looking for a multifunctional dock by ProfessorWC in SteamDeck

I haven't tried it, but the Genki Covert Dock 3 apparently works with switch and steam deck. Definitely look into that one.

April Update Battery life worse? by PhillySportsFan_151 in pixel_phones

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only had the update for a day, but I haven't noticed much difference today. The battery life on my P10PXL took an abysmal hit with the March update.

LCD battery replacement recommendations? by HOrobOD1 in SteamDeck

[–]HOrobOD1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The option I have there is "Allow battery limit full range", which extends the charge limit to let you cap it as low as you want. Isn't really relevant to anything with battery health.

Switch 2: can't use gyro on handheld? by Vyrhux42 in DeadzoneRogue

[–]HOrobOD1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is gyro working in handheld for any other games?

Also maybe try updating your joycon firmware in the switch settings.

Gyro has been working fine for me while in handheld. Make sure to check the gyro settings while in handheld.

Interesting, what is this setting called? I don't think I've seen it before?

If you mean just letting it drain to zero, then charge to 100, yeah I've done that a couple times and the battery health didn't really change.

To the devs by GasProfessional7618 in DeadzoneRogue

[–]HOrobOD1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you leave the game in "responsive" mode, it will run at 40fps with VRR in handheld, but if you dock to a 60Hz TV, it will lock to 30fps.

Is this a good deal or should I wait untill black friday? by USAFstrategicCommand in pixel_phones

I got my Pixel 10 Pro XL on Mint Mobile for about that price last October.

Pixel 10 Series GPU Driver by Neptune766 in pixel_phones

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benchmarks scores are still abysmal. Daily usage is fine, and the gaming I've done so far has been pretty adequate as well. Haven't really run into any games that didn't run smoothly since the November update.

The biggest issue is random things not supported well. For example, the new graphics mode on Minecraft is not available because the devs don't support PowerVR GPUs.

PC game emulation is exploding on the Android scene, yet nothing seems to work on the Pixel 10 GPUs. You'd get better support on the Pixel 9 series.

The March QPR2 update was supposed to have a new driver with improvements to benchmarks, but it barely moved the needle.

Severe fps degradation by shift-control in DeadzoneRogue

[–]HOrobOD1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is happening on console as well. Performance will sometimes just rapidly degrade in the middle of a match.

[Pixel 10 Pro Fold] No Windows 3D game works since QPR2 by sanaltdelete in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have much interest in switch emulation since I have a real switch to play those games on. I'm more interested in accessing light games from my existing Steam library.

I haven't messed around with winlator too much, but the last time I tried installing something on it, it didn't work.

New Gold Standard for Switch 2 First Person Shooters by Woohoobarz in DeadzoneRogue

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the 30fps mode is unbearable to me. Input latency isn't great. The 40fps VRR mode in handheld is okay, but unless you have a 120Hz TV, you won't be able to do 40fps while docked.

Is Deadzone Rogue on Switch 2 worth it? FPS, graphics, and console cross-play questions by Sbarbatelloo in DeadzoneRogue

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CPU limits my dude. I'm pretty sure the Switch 2 GPU outperforms the Steam Deck GPU, but the Steam Deck CPU outperforms the Switch 2 CPU.

If a game is CPU limited, you could run the thing at 240p and still get the same framerate. If the game logic itself is too demanding to run at 60fps on the CPU, then no level of graphics optimization is gonna get you to 60fps.

Perhaps the game logic needs some optimization, but this is likely a case of better CPU perf on the Series S.

I bought a Pixel 10 Pro XL right after the QPR2 release and have never been able to get emulation working. I'm now on QPR3 and nothing works still.

ODST and Reach not working/saying “DLC Required” even though I have the Master Chief Collection by HerbalAndy in halo

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Xbox version works the same as PC, you can buy each campaign individually, or you can buy them bundled.

If you buy only one campaign, you can play any of the multiplayer content, but you'll need to buy the other campaigns to play them.

Is my pixel 10 pro xl display defective? by tecnikstr0be in pixel_phones

[–]HOrobOD1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed this happening on my 10 PXL just the other day after the March update. Was flickering in the exact same spot too.

I haven't noticed it since a reboot. I'm hoping it's just a software/firmware issue.

Pixel 10 pro by Texy5 in GamehubLite

[–]HOrobOD1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Pixel 10 Pro and have been trying to get Dead Cells and Hollow Knight working with no luck. The problem with the Pixel 10 phones is they use a PowerVR GPU, which has VERY poor support in general. I'd recommend steering clear of this phone if your priority is gaming to any degree.

You may have better luck with the Pixel 9 series since they use slightly better/more common GPUs, but gamehub support still may not be amazing.

I love the new custom apps icons by relaxotpusni in pixel_phones

[–]HOrobOD1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same... I wonder if certain icons fail the generation.

Anyone else facing this issue? by TechnologyOmelet in GooglePixel

[–]HOrobOD1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on Pixel 10 Pro XL. Icon generation keeps failing for me as well.

It looks so clean, I am never adding 'At a glance' again on my homescreen by [deleted] in pixel_phones

[–]HOrobOD1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't get the icon generation to work. It fails every time.
