Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - ColdSnow - 11-26-2013

Greetings People and Support,

I have a problems that i can get the Dolphin Emulator to run when i load a iso/homebrew
the screen gets black and nothing else happens.

Specs:
Samsung Galaxy NOTE 10.1
Dolphin Build 4.0-260
Android 4.1.2
ModelNo: GT-N8000

Maybe someone is able to help me with this problem.

Your tablet processor is outdated . Neither that processor nor your OS Android 4.1.2 support OpenGL ES 3.0 which is required to run Dolphin . Therefore , you have to use software rendering backend
Maybe you try Dolphin for fun but you won't get more than 1 FPS with that processor
Recommend at the moment (will change later) :
_CPU : Snapdragon 805 @ 2.5GHz
_GPU : Adreno 420 with 25.6GB/sec memory bandwidth
_Android 4.3 or later version (Recommend : 4.4 version since OpenGL ES 3.0 driver was added in Android 4.3)

Why recommend something you can't buy yet? The Snapdragon 805 won't be available until well into 2014

Nothing out there yet will run Dolphin at decent speeds so it doesn't really factor into the equation when picking a device. Buy/Use what you need for now, full speed emulation is still at least a generation or two away.

The Snapdragon 800 is worthless for Dolphin (I tried) , I can't recommend it

I'm not claiming it is buddy... The 805 would be on my wishlist as well, but thats not available is it? We can dream I suppose :-)
