Switchroot Android R version publicly released, allows you to boot Android 11 on all Switch models

fnuidfhisduf.png

The first public release of Switchroot's Android R/11 version is here. Available as a beta, the Switchroot team has published a guide on how to run Android 11 or R on all models of hacked Nintendo Switch systems. You'll need to delete your previous Switchroot installation if you want to run it, with the new version offering better WiFi consistency, more JoyCon support, and quality of life improvements. This is a beta release, so bugs are expected, though the Switchroot developers claim that this is fairly stable, as far as beta releases go.

Oooh, I've been waiting for this. I wonder if I should install Android on my OLED for NDS stuff.

Has 11 improved the performance of Drastic? It was pretty terrible compared to 9/10 (whatever the initial version was).

Can't wait to run Plex on it. I'm honestly surprised that there isn't a homebrew Plex app for the switch. it's one of the only devices I own that can hook up to a tv yet can't function as a plex client. Missed opportunity.
Looks like there are some open source methods for accessing your plex library. Maybe someone can port it

Awesome now with Yuzu for Android I can finally play Switch games on my Switch
There are occasionally benefits for emulating a system on itself if it can be made transparent enough to not be too slowed down (or overclocked to simulate stock clock) as pertains to cheats, savestates and mods.

Now if only Yuzu is dependable enough to run as close as it could to a genuine switch, I'd switch to a Tab S9 Ultra instead and cut the hassle altogether.
Gave me a chuckle when I first misunderstood. Thought for a second you were meaning Yuzu for Android on Switch. :D

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
