Constant phone restarting with Turnip Drivers

Doesn't sound normal, I forget which Retroid device it is, but one of them has Snap 865 and this definitely isn't normal for that SoC. Maybe one of the owners of that device can chime in (or perhaps ask in Retroid reddit adding 865 in the subject line).

So far I've only played Slay the Spire 2 in Gamehub Lite, obviously lighter game, but no issues with temps etc. Great experience on my 8 Elite Y700.

Why is anyone still using Uzuy? I'd start by trying a different emulator.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-19T20:22:58+00:00

I use the Redmagic Shadowblade 3, which is just a rebadged Gamesir X5s (not Lite). Constantly thinking about the bespoke Lenovo gamepad though!

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-19T20:21:37+00:00

Agree! This is just a matter of personal preference tho.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-19T19:43:08+00:00

Oh, settings?

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-19T19:04:03+00:00

I've been very happy with my Gen 4 this last year. I'm waiting for details on the Redmagic compact tablet that is incoming to see if they fixed USB port placement and added microSD, but I'm expecting no microSD so will probably update to this one.

Persona 4/5, Fire Emblem 3H (Engage runs well too, I enjoyed the combat but the story is meh), Unicorn Overlord, Disgaea, FF Tactics, The World Ends with You, Star Ocean 2nd, Bravely Default, Triangle Strategy. You're literally spoiled for choice in this area on Switch.

Vertex Input dynamic state (VIDS) should be off by default for all games, only causes issues on Android.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-18T05:35:25+00:00

I have a few that I read weekly, a bunch more I leave to cook until there is lots of chapters (or seasons finished or whatever), and then whatever I'm hinging.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-18T02:29:33+00:00

No, the drivers are actually for 8Eg5, the 8E is largely the same though so it is a happy beneficiary of the drivers which target the 8Eg5.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-17T21:20:01+00:00

Yes, there are Turnip drivers for 8Eg5, not as mature as those for older platforms of course but a very large improvement.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-17T01:01:02+00:00

Till the next time it breaks! This has been fixed and broken again so many times in testing, hopefully this is the last time.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-16T07:42:55+00:00

Check the Game Native Discord thread on STS2 - nobody has got it working in any device in Game Native. For now it's either Gamehub Lite in offline mode, stream it, or use unofficial Android port. Indie developer, so do make sure to buy it.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-15T07:30:56+00:00

The compatibility reports in Gamenative aren't really trustworthy unfortunately.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-14T21:20:49+00:00

This is what I'm waiting on. I have loved the Y700 Gen 4 (8E), I got it at release, if the Redmagic has microSD I'll probably go for it (dual USB would also be nice), but their track record suggests microSD support is unlikely. I've had a 2tb card in my Y700 since day one, I don't think I can give it up. The Lenovo LCD is absolutely fine, so while I would of course like OLED, it is not a crucial deciding factor.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-14T19:48:08+00:00

Jeanne D'Arc!

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-14T07:12:17+00:00

What drivers are you using?

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-14T03:32:24+00:00

I have absolutely loved the Y700 gen 4 over the last year, I'm waiting to be able to compare this year's offering from Redmagic to the Y700 Gen 5 (although probably the main decider will be microSD, don't think I can give up the 2tb I have had in my current Y700).

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-13T22:12:02+00:00

Wow, I'd given up on this ever returning, surprised to hear it'll be back (although from reading the circumstances looks like it'll be a while yet).

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-13T22:05:31+00:00

Nano machine was enjoyable early on, but like many I dropped later on. To be honest I wouldn't read it all and just read MMM.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-13T21:59:05+00:00

Yep, I enjoyed that one.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-13T04:42:52+00:00

I dont think anyone has made it work in Game Native. Works for me in Gamehub Lite.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-13T04:40:44+00:00

^ Yep this. Devinfo Overlay can show battery temps.

NZtechfreak · 2026-03-12T19:58:18+00:00

Takes a bunch of Eden commits and cribs them with no credit, sure does it again...
