RG Rotate

RG Rotate

slot. supports the Anbernic RG Rotate: its square screen, its buttons and its rotating screen.

Setup

For the best experience with slot., set these on your RG Rotate:

1. Settings → Security → Screen lock → Swipe. slot. puts the RG Rotate to sleep under the lock screen. Without one, it can only dim the screen. With a PIN, you have to unlock before you get back to your game.
2. Settings → Handheld Game Console Settings → Rotate Setting → Slide out Setting → Wake Up and Unlock, so opening the screen wakes the RG Rotate and goes straight back to slot.
3. Settings → Handheld Game Console Settings → Rotate Setting → Slide into Setting → No Operation, so closing the screen leaves slot.'s cover on screen.
4. Quick Settings (swipe down twice from the top) → Direction following system → On, so the cover is the right way up when the screen is closed.
5. Settings → Handheld Game Console Settings → Quick Launcher → slot.

Then in slot.: START → Settings → Handheld → Sleep When Closed → ON, and allow the permission Android asks for.

Known issue — Opening the RG Rotate can briefly show Android's lock screen clock. Android shows its lock screen first when the RG Rotate wakes, and slot. can't come back any sooner without Android stopping it. A black lock screen wallpaper hides it well. If you know a fix, please open an issue.
