Actually, there is a way to bypass the fornite requirement thingy. You have to use gl tools and fake the gpu to an adreno 530, I tried fortnite with an overclocked snapdragon 810 and the results were not very favourable. You also have to use magisk, and one hide root access for fortnite and two use the renamed magisk package in the magisk settings. If anyone is wondering, fornite runs between 5 and 20 fps on an overclocked snapdragon 810 (2Ghz across all cores, all cores enabled and 700Mhz on the GPU) at low settings, 1080p 37.5% resolution scale.
@@hirokakhand6584 doesnt work because its an x86 platform emulating an arm chip, i.e not compatible binaries. pretty sure BlissOS isnt supported anymore, and the last version of gl tools to work was on android oreo. Imagine it like this, its like trying to force a large square block in a small circle shaped hole, it just doesn't work. Plus the fact blissOs has modified the window manager on android and a heap of other shit. Personally I would try a lineageOS-based build of android x86 with root access enabled from the terminal and something based of oreo, your luck might be a bit better. And it would work better if you were not using an x86 platform. Seriously? How stupid do you have to be. It does work, but I am perplexed to how you don't.
Your friend is lucky to have a friend like you! Unfortunately, now I'm thinking of building one of these for myself. Most of my Android devices don't have the power to run most of this software, but it looks like this repurposed PC eats all this stuff for breakfast and asks for seconds.

I bought a similar computer to this because of you. Will buy another. The one I have is for Plex and has 16GB for transcoding. I'ma get a pure emu machine for the living room
It is your motherbard, CPU and Ram making it perform better except no Dedicated GPU. It still wonderable that CPU and motherboard has great impact on performance levels.
i have a "thing", it has an atom x5 z8350, 4gb ram, and an intel hd 400 (the 400 stand for 400mhz, that gpu is even worse than the hd 4000 on my thinkpad x230), thankfully i've got it for free, but with 64gb emmc (and no expandibility at all, everything is soldered) windows 10 runs very, very, very bad. maybe primeos can bring a new life in it? (the cpu clock at 1.44ghz base, but with 4 core it turbo to 1.67)
Nice video and cool to see Android on a desktop with older hardware! Does Android (PrimOS) support dedicated gpu's? Have a passive GT1030 and some old hardware I might try this with in a itx case.. Does it help in Android games? Keep the good videos up!
Looking for something that'll play Atari, NES, SNES, GBC, GBA, N64, GameCube, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PSP, Wii, some old PC games. What's my bottom dollar for something that'll run all those at peak resolution?
I recently walked away with an arm full of Dell Optiplex SFF computers with i5-6500 CPUs, 8GB RAM, SSDs. I threw a GT 1030 into one for a 4K HDR HTPC and an HD7750 into another for a CRT-based arcade. @ETA PRIME have you tested the Retroarch run ahead feature?
You should do a ryzen 2200g-3400g shootout on prime os! It would be nice to see if each cpu has an advantage over the other in Android. Also would like to know if the ryzen would support audio through HDMI. Definitely going to try it out regardless!
I'd love to see the same thing done but with a device with the lowest power consumption to highest playability factor. The best thing that can get as close to the performance of the Nvidia Shield but less than $100 that also sips electricity.
I'm about to ditch the Nvidia shield tv pro (2019) and build a prime os gaming PC. Anything I should know? Does prime os work will in your living room? Is it better than the Nvidia shield? I'm looking for something to play dolphin at full speed.

I commented on the prime install tutorial, anyways i know how to do this but refreshers are always nice, what needing yo ask you is, have you done android tv install yet, it works awesome
Here's the deal u get screen with OS included, Buy Mi TV 4a 32inch around 150USD, run game from 8bit, 16bit, PSX, NDS smooth no lag. It can run Redream, Yabause, PPSSPP limited compatibility.
I got news for you, a lot of mobile games have been updated over this summer and now do not run on x86 architecture. I don't know why THIS summer is when it all happened, but it did, and you may have set him up with an obsolete machine
Pink Droid it’s not x86 anyway, its amd64. Even the PrimeOS help page seems to have no idea what processors are what architecture (only SPARC & Atom are x86 since Core Solo/Duo run, everything Core2 and newer are 64 bit). If this was indeed an x86 install (on a 64 bit machine), performance suffered a bit
How did you got the wireless and Bluetooth running through usb? And from where you downloaded the Netflix app? From Google store it tells me that my device is not compatible.
Could I use a pavilion 24 touch aio to set up as an arcade cabinet? Have you tried using an AIO, how would it performane and how high (console wise) would it emulate.
I would like to see some buffed up smart TVs I'm sure there is stuff I can cram in a tv.... dont know if you have done anything like this prime but if not why not make some videos. Sorry if I sound crazy just would be something I'm interested in

Can you try running Mobile Legends on one of your Android PC builds? It's one of the most popular games right now and I want to know if it works. Thanks!
So here's my problem. I have a collection of old game apps I would love to run on one device. The problem is from what I understand is that they can only run o the Dalvik compiler. Google moved to ART and in doing so you can't run certain apps. In my case batman dark knight, mass effect infitration, dead space, monopoly, Asphalt 6, chaos rings 1,2 and alpha,NOVA 1 and 2 and others. I was wondering if its possible to get those games working along with modern apps on one device? So far it takes about 3 devices to have all my apps accessible. If Android 86 can have both compilers would I be able to install it on a windows tablet and get the results I want? I was thinking maybe the smartab with 2gb ram and 64gb of space would be an option. Its 100 bucks at walmart. What do you think?
ETA Prime, have you ever encountered any issues running Retroarch on Prime OS? I've tried and it didn't want to run at all. I'm think of trying it on Android X86.
Is the issue with HDMI a hardware issue of this machine or a software issue for Prime OS? I'd like to see if you can get *Honkai Impact 3rd* to run. it's a decent looking action game that you can play via an official android emulator on PC, but they hobble the graphic performance, and I'd like to know if this can get the improved graphics.
