Workflow Auto-Build Test Release
We’re back with a fresh round of fixes and enhancements for ArkOS4Clone.
Note: This update is for ArkOS4Clone only – the dArkOS4Clone variant is not updated this time due to ongoing bug investigations that require more testing before we can safely address them.
What’s New & Fixed
🐛 Bug Fixes
- R36Ultra V2 joystick RGB LED – Fixed an issue where the joystick lighting would not restore after waking from suspend.
- Power LED threshold – The power LED now correctly changes state when the battery reaches the defined threshold during gameplay (previously it did not switch).
- Audio mute – Resolved a bug where setting volume to 0 on most devices would still produce audible sound. Now volume 0 is truly silent.
- V30 WiFi – Fixed WiFi unavailability on V30 devices after selecting
panel4display configuration.
✨ New Features & Improvements
- Battery driver selection – Added support for two battery driver modes:
original– the default ArkOS driver.arkos4clone_fix– a revised battery driver that corrects inaccurate battery readings when the charger is connected. This driver is still experimental and requires more testing – we encourage you to try it and share your results.
- LED suspend indication – The LED logic has been updated so that when the device enters suspend (sleep) mode, the LED remains lit, providing a clear visual cue that the device is sleeping rather than powered off.
- gpsp_ezode_mod core enhancements:
- Added vibration support for EZODE games (when using the gPSP core).
- Added support for mGBA-style cheat files (
.cht) – now you can use the same cheat format as mGBA with the gPSP core.
- PCSX core (PlayStation) – The core now includes a cheat option within its settings, which automatically loads the corresponding cheat file (Chinese cheat file) for the current game. In addition, the core supports automatic loading of game‑specific BIOS files – simply rename your BIOS file to
[game name].biosand place it in the correct directory. Please note that some cheat codes may not be effective.
🛠 Development & Build (GitHub Actions)
- Added two workflow files that enable automated building of both
ArkOS4CloneanddArkOS4Clonevia GitHub Actions, with automatic release publishing. - Interested developers can now fork the repository and easily build their own images using these workflows – no manual setup required.
Known Issues / Testing Notes
- The new
arkos4clone_fixbattery driver is experimental – please test it and report any anomalies. - For the PCSX core, while cheats are auto‑loaded, some codes may not work as expected – we welcome feedback on specific titles.
