Problemas with Vulkan in Dolphin 5.0-1626

[Helios]

Mali GPU bugs can be reported on ARM forums. Note, Mali devs won't care unless you're technical enough to provide example code to reproduce the bug. Going on their forums and just saying "X bug happens in Dolphin" is just useless noise and you shouldn't do that.

Qualcomm does not have a publicly available way to report bugs.

Additionally, even if this bug is fixed and shipped, most phone vendors rarely update GPU drivers.

You should just stop trying to use Dolphin on Android.

This combination is the issue. We already dislike if users reports bugs on the last stable version without checking if the issue is still in the last development builds. Just think how many people in here would look at issue reports for 4.0 wihout comparing at least 5.0. Now imagine those reports just provide a screenshot instead of a technical way to reproduce them. "Play game X till the 4th level, get the quest Y, and loose against enemy Z to trigger this bug." doesn't help.

Bad luck, they don't provide us a way to reproduce bugs on more recent driver versions.

But you're right, I came to the same conclusion: Fuck it, I won't try to workaround random driver bugs and only recormend the shield TV for android testing - and *no* device for real android playing.

It's qcomm dev forums and they also require an example
