running an adreno 330 want to update drivers

11-16-2015, 01:42 PM #1

Hey, this is my first post and I've been wanting maximize my phones compatibility w/ the dolphin emulator. From reading around in the v53 drivers for my adreno 330 create a lot errors in the emulator cause its early opengl es 3.0 drivers are buggy. I've also read that the v95 drivers remove a lot of emulation issues. So I want to ask of anyone could instruct me on the porting process so I can attempt to install newer drivers on my phone. My phone isnt popular so Ive been looking around for ways to improve my phone like rooting and installing a custom recovery and now I want to be able to get the latest compatible drivers. I read on thread about porting newer quallcom drivers on this forum but the video posted as a guide has been taken down. If anyone could help me you'd really make my day Big Grin

There is nothing that will make any current phone as this time of writing play Dolphin without framerate or graphical issues.

There is no way around that. None. Nada. Zero.

This *may* change when Qualcomm ships their 820 SoC, but will only change if they end up providing 3.2 GLES support in their drivers. Correct support at that. One can also hope that they'll provide 3.2 support for their older SoCs, but with how bad mobile driver support is, don't get your hopes up.

And just for you info, if you have a device with an Adreno 330 then you have a 32-bit device so current Dolphin build won't even install on those old devices (32-bit support was dropped)...

I see, well regardless I want to try to see if other drivers can give me more stability in the emulators I play. I knew dolphin was a bit to much for my phone but I still want to so how well my phone could run it with the latest driver. I found a thread on this forum with a YouTube instruction guide, which was taken down.
