Given the terrible state the GPD XD+ stock ROM was in (and the lack of alternatives out there) I've decided I'd make it my first priority to provide GPD XD+ owners with a go-to ROM of choice that's clean, fast and up-to-date.

Something they can just flash and forget, knowing they'll get the most out of their systems (at least until source-built ROMs drop).

Included in this ROM are:

  • No bloat of any kind (in both system and userdata) 
  • A verity-disabled initrd (for easy modding)
  • A deodexed system partition (for easy modding) 
  • Magisk root & manager (for easy modding)
  • A new boot logo and animation matching GPD's new company logo
  • Up-to-date Google apps (as of today)
  • 2.1GHz CPU OC kernel (for that extra bit of performance)

Furthermore I've decided that this time around I'll not lock this release behind a temporary Patreon paywall in the hope of enabling as many users I can to jump ship off GPD's stock ROM as soon as possible.

If however you happen to enjoy the work I'm doing here, and want to support this and other future projects, please feel free to join my other fellow patrons.

Every cent counts, helps pay my bills, and thus allows me to spend more time working on these projects.

Thanks for the ROM, it is very good so far. I hope you can fix the refresh issue and the video drivers in a future release. Not used Patreon before but I will defo look at it and how I can support you.

As for the refresh issue, I've had a few people try and guide me in the right direction as to how I should be debugging this... however (at least at this moment), I failed to actually find the issue on my own unit (or maybe my unschooled eye simply can't see / comprehend the issue). As for fixing closed source drivers, I wouldn't hold my breath for that...

2021-12-29 05:09:40 I didn't notice a screen refresh issue either to be honest, emu's from NES>SNES and Mega Drive PS1 are reporting 60fps. I don't know if there is some additional fps tool I can use to double check?? Drivers is a big issue for me, currently Saturn does not work and old XD was a lot better for this.

I've picked up on that and left a message on DevMiyax's github asking if there was anything I could do from the ROM-development side to assist him in debugging this issue. We'll see if anything comes from it.

Hello ! I just bought a XD+ and of course I will install this clean rom, as the default one is .. chitty ? (I don't really know the word, sorry I'm french :p) ! Just a question for you, I don't find answer anywhere.. Once I have installed clean Rom, does the keymapper with the physical button will always work ? Or I will have to download a custom application for that ? This is the only "stop" I have for installing clean rom :p Thank you all !

The keymapper works fine on CleanROM. I do suggest going for the latest version though and not this initial release as a lot of bugs have been fixed in the meantime.

Thanks a lot for your answer !!! After an hour to fight with drivers, I have clean rom 2.1ghz :) I have hesitate between 2.1 and 1.8 but I said me "If my gpd doesnt overheat, I keep 2.1, if it heats a lot, i put the 1.8" :p Thank you for all of your work !
