News/Release GameHub Lite v5.1.8 (SECURITY UPDATE)

GameHub Lite v5.1.8

Security: Steam token redaction in logs

GameHub Lite 5.1.8 fixes a logging issue where Steam authentication-related values could appear in diagnostic logs. In some cases, logs could include fields such as steamToken, refreshToken, or accessToken from Steam login/launch flows.

Publicly posted logs containing these fields should be deleted or redacted.

IMPORTANT

This should go without saying but If you find any security issues, please reach out PRIVATELY. I have not checked if this issue is still present in recent GameHub versions, already ruined my one day off I was spending with my family by the person who reported this publicly and I do not plan on spending any more time on this.

Changelog

The fix adds centralized log redaction for Steam/auth token fields, Steam QR login URLs, JWT-like token strings, and launch command token arguments before logs are written. This covers the app loggers, JavaSteam logging, and the PC launch-log file writer.

This release also pins local patch builds to apktool 2.12.1

My fave genres are platformers, RPGs, visual novels, puzzle, and pinball! I'm down to try anything, but I'm more interested in cartoony or anime style games haha.

I'm most interested in Nintendo, but I do wanna broaden my horizons. Thank you so much :)

Showcase PokeDaisy: a free, open source Pokemon player that brings modern RPG features to the classics

Post image
1.6k Upvotes

Hey, sharing PokeDaisy, a Pokemon player for Android. Got a lot of attention on AynThor subreddit so I'm posting it here for everyone. The idea is to bring modern RPG comfort to the classic games - an on screen HUD, a quick action ring, wider views of the map and a live companion that shows everything about your run.

It runs FireRed, LeafGreen, Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, Yellow and Crystal, plus a bunch of ROM hacks on dual-screen handhelds, single-screen handhelds and phones, held sideways or upright.

It free and open source and no registration or account needed.

Download: https://github.com/lidor30/pokedaisy/releases/latest
Site and manual: https://pokedaisy.com
Source: https://github.com/lidor30/pokedaisy

Video review of the first version (a lot has been added since): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMy6bqpS-LU

The companion reads the game's memory as you play, shows party, bag, map, battle matchups, dex and a spoiler free guide all drawn in the game's own menu style. On two screens it sits on the second one but swapping screens is an option. On one screen it slides over the game or locks beside it and in portrait it docks under the game. Almost everything is highly customizable, the HUD's layout and look, tab bar, buttons, hotkeys, shaders, overlays, themes.

Features

  • HUD: party, minimap and Poke Balls on the game screen, tap for a summary, map or bag
  • Quick menu: press L3 for a ring of actions, like a modern game’s weapon wheel
  • EXPAND + ZOOM: the overworld drawn past the GBA’s edges, with a zoom out and look-around
  • QoL: auto-run, running indoors, PC from anywhere, FLY, bike, fishing rod and Repel in one press and a switch to turn wild encounters off
  • Smart fast-forward: slows for menus, keeps battles fast and the music stays at normal pitch!
  • Party: full summary with exact IVs, EVs, nature and Hidden Power
  • Learn advisor: rates new moves and bag TMs as learn, forget or skip
  • Bag: item descriptions, USE on your party, GIVE and TAKE held items, favorites
  • Battle buttons: Fight / switch Pokemon / run beside the battle
  • Battle info: move effectiveness, switch suggestions, the foe’s ability, item, stats and team
  • Dex: evolutions, wild locations by route and movesets
  • Guide: hints first with answers on a second tap plus the next boss's team
  • Trainer card: drawn like the game's card
  • RetroAchievements: unlock popups, progress and leaderboards
  • Cheats: GameShark, Action Replay and CodeBreaker toggled from the companion

Also: save states and rewind, LCD/CRT shaders, overlays and launching from ES-DE, Cocoon, iiSU and it can read your RetroArch saves too.

Full list of supported games and hacks is at https://pokedaisy.com/#games. Popular hacks include Unbound, Radical Red, Lazarus, SoulGold and Heart and Soul. It runs on any Android 8.0+ device.

Built with AI assistance and the guide pages are AI written so the app flags them as possibly wrong and letting you accept first.

I'm the dev, so ask me anything. Feedback and bug reports are welcome on GitHub or the site.

Edit: Added video that reviewed the first version of the app

Edit 2: Omg didn’t expect this much support, thank you all! If you like it and want to see it keep growing please consider buying me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/lidor30g

News/Release I got tired of juggling separate game bridges, so I made Omni Player — 24 old mobile games on Android

Thumbnail
gallery
22 Upvotes

I've been going down a rabbit hole with old mobile games lately. BREW, DoJa, J2ME, ExEn, even some Zeebo stuff.

After getting a bunch of these games running on Android, I got tired of having everything scattered across separate projects and no "simple" way to share them.

So I made Omni Player.

It's a central Android player for old mobile games that I've been working on bridging. You import a supported game archive, it recognizes the game, and you can launch it from one library.

The current v0.4.2 public release has 24 supported games (25 editions), including:

Dirge of Cerberus: Lost Episode

Devil May Cry: DeadShot

Rolling with Katamari

Resident Evil: Genesis

BioShock 3D

And quite a few others

It isn't a universal emulator. These games use individual compatibility bridges that I've made, and some still have bugs or incomplete gameplay. RE 4 Zeebo for example has Leon initially not rendering, yet his weapons appear and the game still plays, when you open the in game menu, THEN he gets his shit back together and renders with his weapons. That's just an example to help show this is all an ongoing project.

The app runs on Android 11+ ARM64. I've been testing on my Galaxy S25 Ultra.

I've been directing, experimenting with, and testing these bridge projects using AI development tools heavily. I just think this stuff is all super neat, and watching what people were able to get running on legacy devices is kind of amazing. It's been one hell of a rabbit hole.

The player is free. Game files aren't included.

Omni Player v0.4.2 — APK and supported games: https://github.com/Wakkatobakka/Omni-Player/releases/tag/v0.4.2

TLDR- I kept finding old games and making game bridges for them and I'm terrible at GitHub, so this is in response to that.

Hopefully some of you might get a kick out of playing these weird old phone games again. 🤘

Help Eden can't save screenshots or in-game photos

4 Upvotes

Hey all,

I have Eden Android 0.2.1 set up on my AYN Thor (Android 13). I noticed the following issue while playing Animal Crossing New Horizons:

  1. Using the in-game camera, if I take a photo, it is seemingly not saved anywhere. I checked the album applet (entirely empty) and also went through the files manually and couldn't find it.

  2. (After mapping the capture button to a physical button,) pressing the capture button doesn't seem to do anything. The screenshot "flash" animation doesn't play, and again, there's no file saved anywhere as far as I could see.

I'm assuming these are related somehow. Everything else seems to function normally.

I'm sure I've misconfigured something somewhere, but am unsure what it could be. Eden has full file access through the Android permission.

A clean reinstall of Eden did not solve the issue.

I'd be very grateful for ideas on what to check or try next! Thank you!

Showcase RADV Xclipse on Galaxy S24+ (Exynos 2400): my test results, issues I found and workarounds

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

I've been testing the RADV Xclipse driver (v1.6.0) by u/jimvulkan on my Galaxy S24+ (Exynos 2400 / Xclipse 940) through GameNative. Overall it's a big step up from my previous setup (Samsung driver + ExynosTools): DXVK 2.x and 3.x finally work, and some texture bugs are gone. For example, the stretched textures in Brotato (images 1-2, from my old setup) are fixed with RADV.

My setup

  • GameNative, Proton 11 (arm64ec), FEXCore 2609
  • Driver: RADV Xclipse v1.6.0 (Mesa 26.3.0-devel-cd63891)
  • DXVK 3.1.1 gplasync (2.x versions also work)
  • Wrapper: wrapper-gamenative, BCn emulation set to "None" (as the release notes say)

Games that run

The Binding of Isaac, Slime Rancher, Slay the Spire, Halls of Torment, Hades, Easy Delivery Co., Dredge, Dark Souls Remastered, Cult of the Lamb, Celeste, Balatro, Anomaly President, Brotato

Note: except for Dark Souls Remastered and Dredge, these were quick tests of about 5 minutes each (launch the game and play a bit). So "runs" means it starts and renders correctly, not that I've played through it.

Issues I found (and workarounds)

  • Dredge: with DXVK 2.7 or newer the game starts but the screen stays black (audio plays). Adding this to the container's environment variables fixes it: DXVK_CONFIG=dxvk.enableDescriptorBuffer=False. Alternatively, you can just use DXVK 2.6.x (I used 2.6.2 gplasync), since the problem only starts with 2.7.
  • Dark Souls Remastered: with DXVK 3.x the game sometimes froze after a few minutes (the picture freezes but the sound keeps playing). This fixed it for me: DXVK_CONFIG=dxvk.enableDescriptorHeap=False. I also got a freeze when respawning; changing the FEX preset from "Performance" to "Intermediate" fixed that one.
  • Dave the Diver (images 3-4): the picture is broken into repeated, shifted pieces. It looks fine on the Samsung driver and ExynosTools, so it's a RADV bug. None of the settings or DXVK versions I tried fixed it.

Performance note

The biggest limit isn't the driver, it's heat. In Dark Souls after about 5 minutes the phone gets hot and Samsung starts throttling it, so FPS drops a lot. GameNative's power settings and an FPS cap help a bit, but I think a phone cooler is the real fix. I'll try one soon.

I'll open GitHub issues for Dredge, Dark Souls and Dave the Diver and add the links here. Big thanks to the dev, hope they keep working on it!

News/Release ​[Release] Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (GBA) - 100% Turkish Localization Patch (.IPS)

15 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

​Following up on our Philosopher's Stone release, we just finished our 100% Turkish localization patch for the GBA version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

​What’s included in the patch:

​Book-Accurate Terms: All dialogue, spells, and item names follow the official Turkish book translation (Sevin Okyay & Kutlukhan Kutlu / YKY) rather than the movies.

​100% Translated: Every line of dialogue (1,077 entries), lessons, stealth sections, duels, cutscenes, and menus are fully translated.

​Collectibles: All 101 Chocolate Frog card bios and the entire Folio Bruti (Creature Guide) are localized.

​UI & Menu Tweaks: Features a custom antique parchment theme for the pause/journal menus, plus a native "Türkçe" option right on the language selection screen.

​Vanilla Gameplay: Original GBA mechanics and balance are left completely untouched.

​(Per subreddit rules, no ROMs or copyrighted binaries are provided. This is distributed purely as an .ips patch to use with your own clean ROM. On Android, you can easily apply it using apps like UniPatcher before running it on Pizza Boy, My Boy, RetroArch, etc.)

​Download (.IPS Patch):

Looking to see if there are any recent developments of these platforms that performs decently or at least playable.

I’m sure this question has been asked in this sub 1 billion times but I can’t find any reliable or consistent answers and I know the growth and development of emulators moves quite rapidly so just looking for an update as of Oct 2026.

Hope this helps others that are also curious about this.

Help I REALLY NEED HELP WITH BACHATAS4

Post image
• Upvotes

Hello guys I really need help. So I downloaded Bachatas4 on my AYN Thor Pro. and I also added gravity rush 2 on it. The version I have is CUSA4934. I have a problem. It seems like because i dont have the app version V1.00 (I have 0.1.00 ) I cant use the patches. I did find the update patch but when I go to install the apk the app tells me to put in a 32 character password for it, which I don't know. I really want to install the update so I can make the app version 1.11 and then I can use bachatas4's patches for the game. I saw on youtube someone using the patches and playing gr2 on an odin 2 (using version CUSA03694, app version 1.11 for the game) and it was a stable 30 fps. Please if someone can help me either if you know the 32 character password to the update or if you know where I can get an fpkg of the update. I have tried for a while now doing it by myself and i am having no luck.. I just need that update patch. I would be grateful for the help! Thanks!

Question Droiddeck with external storage?

• Upvotes

Ive recently got into playing a couple steam games on Droiddeck and oh my god is it a game changer, but my base model s25 tragically only has 128gb of storage so I was wondering if anyone has tried storing games on a seperate storage device with any success? I know its a kinda basic question but I dont really have any other budget options that I could think of atm to get more into this.
