Retroid pads have an L2/R2 mode called "both": the trigger sends KEYCODE_BUTTON_L2/R2 AND an analog axis. sendTrigger writes the pad button from the axis, and the key path wrote it again -- one physical squeeze, two independent writers on the same button, which arrives as a delayed or doubled press. Long jumps in the Ratchet games hold R2 and were unreliable because of it; a reporter had it in 0.9.2 and says 0.8 was fine. sendTrigger already carries the opposite guard: a pad with no trigger axis at all leaves "the key path in sole charge", added when Switch Pro controllers had their held trigger cancelled by every stick movement. This is that guard's mirror, and the two together mean exactly one writer owns a trigger on every pad -- the axis where there is an axis, the key where there is not. Keyed on the physical keycode before remapping, because what decides ownership is how the hardware reports the trigger, not what the user bound it to. Pads that report triggers ONLY as keys are unaffected: they have none of the three axes, so the guard does not fire and the key path still owns them.
ARMSX3
Uses the latest RPCS3 upstream code (the recent ARM64 improvements included).
Building
arm64-v8a and armv8.2 is supported. You need the Android SDK with NDK r27 or newer, CMake 3.30 or newer, and a JDK 17. Android Studio ships all of these.
Clone with submodules, then fetch the two third party checkouts that are not submodules:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX3.git
cd ARMSX3
git clone https://github.com/SnowflakePowered/librashader 3rdparty/librashader
git clone https://github.com/bylaws/libadrenotools android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/cpp/libadrenotools
Build the core. This is the long part and produces an unstripped library of around 1.3 GB:
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
cmake -B build-android -G Ninja \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$ANDROID_HOME/ndk/<version>/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake \
-DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-31 \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
cmake --build build-android --target rpcsx-android -j8
Strip it and put it where the app expects it:
llvm-strip --strip-unneeded build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so
cp build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so \
android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/jniLibs/arm64-v8a/
Then build the app:
cd android/armsx3-ui
export JAVA_HOME="/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jbr/Contents/Home"
./gradlew :app:assembleRelease
The apk lands in app/build/outputs/apk/release/.
Note that the core library has to be rebuilt and copied again whenever anything under rpcs3/ or android/src/ changes. Gradle does not build it for you.
The Discord Social SDK is proprietary and is not redistributed here. Get it from Discord's developer portal and drop it in app/libs/ and app/src/main/cpp/discord_sdk/ if you want that feature. The build skips it otherwise.
Running it needs PS3 firmware, which is not included. License
