Is launchbox broken on a GPD XP?

I have been importing sets on a range of handheld devices but I noticed when I tried to import mame several times on my GPD XP it would crash. So I tried psx and snes which also crashed. No idea why when snes is a small set. However 8 systems imported OK. My retroid and odin imported fine but the XP just keeps crashing now I've tried importi g several times and no idea if the software has problems.

Much more likely its a issue with the version of Android being used by GPD, those Chinese devices often have bad and out of date versions of Android installed. The fact that Launchbox works on the other two devices you have would back this up, as well of course all the other users using it just fine on their devices.

Yeah the XP I've not been impressed with it runs android 11 but you can't even change the directory in retroarch to your sd card because of Google. So I have to file transfer to internal memory.

My retroid pocket 2 plus and the Odin haven't crashed once and I imported 30 sets on those two so definitely a problem with GPD for some reason.

Thanks for the report. I don't think I've heard about issues with the XP from anyone else, but it's also possible that not very many people are using that device. Do you have any options for custom Android firmwares or firmware upgrades (or downgrades)?
