Note

Due to the large number of supported devices, only basic functional testing has been performed. Given limited time and resources, there may still be undiscovered issues. Thank you for your understanding.

1. Fixed the issue where the battery could not charge to 100%.
2. Fixed abnormal audio issues on some devices.
3. Fixed the soy sauce handheld bug where exiting RetroArch required
   pressing the power button twice for the screen to turn on.
4. Fixed multiple sleep/wake issues related to built-in RK915 WiFi on
   XF40H, XF35H, R36ULTRA, R36T, R36TMAX, K36S, DC40V, DC35V and
   similar devices. The new version supports proper sleep, and WiFi
   works normally after wake.
5. Fixed the issue where the RK915 WiFi MAC address changed after every reboot
6. Fixed the bug where soy sauce handhelds would automatically power on
   immediately when connected to a charger while powered off.
7. Removed Clone-specific scripts and refactored them into the ES menu.
8. Adjusted the ES menu structure: emulator settings have been moved
   from the main page to the corresponding emulator menu, accessible by
   pressing SELECT.
9. Added experimental support for the drastic-kk emulator.
10. Retained the original drastic emulator.
11. Fixed the incorrect video playback scaling issue.
12. Added power LED control support.

⚠️ Known Issue

On Clone Type 1, Type 3, and Type 4, using 5G WiFi may trigger dwc2
errors. Using low-power 2.4G WiFi (8188) does not cause this issue. The
root cause is still under investigation.
