Nexus 5 OpenGL - therourke - 01-06-2014

I am seeing good reports of Dolphin running on Nexus 5, but I can't replicate this on my device. When I turn OpenGL on the game crashes at load (I only have Mario Sunshine at the moment). I can run the game very slowly without OpenGL, but not consistently.

Have I missed some tweaks? I am only using the Dolphin currently on the Play Store, I couldn't get any of the other builds I tried to work.

If there are links to tweaks and builds I'd really appreciate it. Reeeeeally hoping my Nexus 5 has enough juice to work.

Thanks
(Sorry if this info is listed elsewhere, but a long search hasn't uncovered it. I thought a specific Nexus 5 thread would be useful)

pretty much every build after 427 are broken in one way or another(something with the buidbot, there working on it) I recommend downloading dolphin-master-4.0-427.apk from https://dl.dolphin-emu.org/builds/ and installing it from your phone(make sure you uninstall the emulator from the playstore first and enable unknown sources from security) open gl(there is a bug that causes the game to run in portrait mode instead of landscape) anyways it runs at a decent speed of 5fps on non demanding games(results vary by phone specs), not sure what to expect from super Mario sunshine since my phone is broken currently
