Vulkan not working on galaxy s9 tmobile model

[jcmejia]

I've been trying to get vulkan to work on dolphin Google play version but it won't work it gives a error then crashes and a black screen
Device galaxy s9
Specs snapdragon 845
Adreno 630
OS Android 8.0

That's odd. Usually Vulkan works pretty well with Oreo. Have you taken any OS updates recently? Was vulkan working for you before?

Same here, I get:

With Pokemon XD on my S9+ T-mobile mode

Do you guys have gpu texture decoding enabled while uskng vulkan (in the hacks tab)? That setting breaks certain games but only when using the vulkan backend. I have no issue running pokemon xd when that setting is turned off. In recent builds, opengl has actually been faster than vulkan anyway. Ever since build 9563. ( im using a tmobile note 9 so a similar phone to yours)

Actually I just uninstalled and deleted the Dolphin folder, reinstalled and now it works lol. But now my savestates wont work anymore ? Do I have to go back to a previous version and save Pokemon in-game?

I remember reading somewhere that some Pokémon games do weird things if you rely on save states, so yes. Saving in-game is better.
