***YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG!!!***
This is a real breakthrough!!!!!
I own a HTC Desire HD, though there are some incompatibilities with many games made only for certain platforms! Though this is only the beginning, many, if not all games, can be played from other platforms on your high end android device.
1/ Download the free version of ChainFire3D from Market (got some bugs with the cracked pro one, so for the time being, use the free one to test).
2/ Install the app, install the driver in the app, and reboot.
3/ Download the 3 plugins for TEGRA, QUALCOMM and POWERVR drivers from here:
http://www.multiupload.com/18ECNP4UH1!
4/ Place them in the root of your SD card
5/ In the app, press install plugin and wait to find them (2-5 min), then install all 3 of them
6/ In Default OpenGL settings, select use Plugin and use nVidia to do a test.
7/ Download an incompatible game, for example Samurai 2: Vengeance (Tegra only) from the Site in here! Or Fruit Ninija THD, or I don't know what
Test it! It will work!
8/ Download any other game and test. Use the appropiate driver plugin.
NOTE: There might be some incompatibilies, so not ALL other games will work. Also, if your phone's hardware does not support the games h/w requirements, of course it will not work
LE: If the game requires too much RAM, be sure to tick the "Reduce texture quality" in the app (it will halve the ram needed), it will have almost no impact on the visuals in game. Cheers.
This has been tested so far on the below listed devices and reported to work 100%. You are free to test and report even you're not in the list, it may work on any 2.1+ device.
- HTC HD2 (MDJ on NAND, Adreno200)
- Samsung Galaxy S (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy S II (2.3.3, Mali-400 MP)
- Motorola Atrix 4G (2.2.1, Tegra2)
- Motorola Droid 2 (2.2.1, PowerVR SGX530)
- LG Optimus 2X (2.3.4, Tegra2)
- Nexus S
- Samsung Epic 4G
Below ARe Tested:
Samurai 2: Vengeance - works
Fruit Ninija THD - works
Pinball HD Tegra - ok
GOF 2 Tegra -ok
Backbreaker THD - ok
Guerrilla Bob THD - okAlso got my Reckless Racing working using the POWERVR driver. It didn't work before.
I am having some trouble getting Moonlight to work on my PC. I have had it working before, but now when I go into my GeForce Experience - there isn't the "SHIELD" tab for all of the network streaming options. Did Nvidia remove this tab in the preference Window? Is it still possible for me to stream to my android device?
Some information about my PC:
Windows 10 Home
Intel Core i7-4770k @ 4.1 GHz
16 GB Kingston HyperX RAM
MSI GTX 970 Gaming 100ME
Nvidia GeForce Experience: v 2.10.2.40
Driver Version: 364.51
I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling GeForce Experience (including rolling back to a previous version) and I can't get it to work. Thanks for any help in advance!
same issue for me
In every android emulator I use, for some reason when I use Direct X, I always have distorted graphics. My opengl is only 2.0 so I 'm usually forced to use Direct X mode. Here is an album of some examples: imgur(dot)com/a/bX1c2
Here's my dxdiag: goo(dot)gl/Y1phQY
Yes, I know that I use custom graphics drivers, but the graphic distortions still happen whether I use the original one or not.

I can't explain you the exact technical reason but your graphic processor (released 2008) simply doesn't meet the requirements of actual emulators. I use Genymotion myself and the undemandig requirements are:
Intel HD Graphics 4000 (2012), Nvidia GeForce 500 Series (2011), ATI Radeon HD 6000 Series (2011);
I know that other emulators even need a more powerfull gpu to work correctly.
Emulators generally have a a poor performance comapred to native operating systems.
You could try using Androidx86 as native installation instead of emulator.
I have a macbook air with following specs:
Processor Name: Intel Core i5
Processor Speed: 1.8 GHz
L3 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 8 GB
macOS Mojave: Version 10.14.1
I want to run PUBG mobile in it using an android emulator. I already have tried using CROSSOVER, NOX PLAYER and also have tried installing Windows via BOOTCAMP but got no success It just keeps failing all the time. KIndly help me
Hi,
I'm looking for lightweight and intuitive OS for my old Win tablet, so kids still can use it for YT, Spotify and simple games.
I spent some time on testing different android-based systems (Bliss, Prime, Android x86, Phoenix) but unfortunately they do not work completely well - issues with touchscreen, WiFi, BT, sound. Android x86 was best only with sound issues (connectivity was OK).
Please advise which android or linux based system (version/build) with gapps support can work out of the box with this tablet: Lenovo ThinkPad 10 (2nd gen) - 20E30037PB.
If none then which one will be the easiest to configure with those mobile components?
CPU: Intel Atom z3795 (4 cores, 1.59 GHz - 2.39GHz)
GPU: Intel HD 405 (I think)
RAM: 4GB
WLAN: ac/a/b/g/n
Touch screen: 1920x1200 LED IPS
Ports: USB 3.0, HDMI, SSD
Others: fingerprint sensor and front/back camera (I don't care about those - can be not working)
If tablet runs Windows 10 and/or Windows 11 you can benefit from Microsoft's
Windows-Subsystem für AndroidSo, upgrade Windows OS, if possible.
Generally yes, but not for requirements I've got from kids: android games + YT for kids, Spotify for kids (those aps are only available for Android) + it's much faster on linux. Also I think W11 will consume more resources out of the box and I have to tweak it a lot to adjust UI and disable all services what are not needed for those basic tasks. I've tried android emulator on W10, but it's too slow.

I think you should look into ChromeOS Flex, since it is based on Linux and can run android apps just fine
OK, I've tested tablet with W11 and actually is much faster than on tweaked W10! Also I was able to install WSFA from terminal but could not start it, since I have only 4GB RAM (8GB is min).
Not sure if still have energy to try ChromeOS - tried different Linux based OS and there was a problem with drivers. I really like W11 on tablet, so maybe will keep it this way and try again Bluestacks on tweaked 11.

ChromeOS Flex is really not that hard, look into it. It's built for weak laptops and with touchscreen in mind, and with support of android apps
