v1.3 Odin 3 beta 1: SteamOS ARM on the Snapdragon 8 Elite

latest releases: v1.5, v1.4-865-beta2, v1.4...
pre-releaseone month ago

First beta for the AYN Odin 3 (Snapdragon 8 Elite)! It boots straight from the SD card, and Android stays on the internal storage untouched. It's going to be a short beta since things are looking great so far.

Big thanks to @Chazmus

What's in it

  • Controls work out of the box: the pad and both back buttons show up in Steam as one controller, the back buttons are L4/R4 and you can remap everything in Steam.
  • Fan curve and performance profiles (silent, balanced, turbo), plus the power button for sleep, wake and the power menu.
  • Text and UI sized for the 6" screen instead of the huge default. You can still change it in Settings > Display.
  • Graphics: our own Mesa with Adreno 830 support, OpenGL goes through Zink like on the Steam Frame.
  • Fan doesn't spin up when you shut down.

Known issue: the performance overlay is turned off for now.

Download

Download the three .7z parts below and extract the .001 one with 7-Zip or WinRAR, that gives you the .img. SHA256s are in SHA256SUMS.

Installing

  1. Flash ROCKNIX ABL for SM8750 to abl_a and abl_b. Back up your stock ABL first, the steps for both are in the Odin 3 guide.
  2. Flash the .img to a microSD card (32GB+) with balenaEtcher or Rufus.
  3. Hold Volume Down while turning it on, set Boot Mode to Linux and hit START.

First boot takes a couple of minutes.

Not booting or something broken? Make a text file called debug on the SD card's BOOT drive, boot and wait 3 minutes, then send the debug-logs folder on discord.
