Download & Setup FAQ
Essential guidance on APK package selection, system permissions, and first-launch configurations.
What is the difference between Standard, AnTuTu, and Ludashi builds?
The core engine is identical. The variant builds use benchmark package names to prevent aggressive OEM thermal governors on selective Chinese ROMs from throttling GPU clock speeds during gameplay.
Do I need to download additional components after installing the APK?
Yes. Upon first tapping Play, DroidDeck automatically downloads and decompresses the 3.2 GB rootless Linux runtime and Valve Steam client. Ensure a stable Wi-Fi network and 20 GB free storage.
How do I resolve 'Unknown App Source' warnings during installation?
Enable 'Allow from this source' in your device settings for your file manager. DroidDeck is fully open-source under GPL-3.0 with transparent code, completely free of telemetry or adware.
Can I run PC games on MediaTek Dimensity, Exynos, or Kirin chips?
While the APK installs, games cannot render without Qualcomm Adreno Mesa Turnip Vulkan driver extensions. DroidDeck strictly requires Qualcomm processors with Adreno 730 or newer GPUs.
Will updating to a newer APK wipe my games or save files?
No. Updating is performed by simply installing the new APK over the existing app. Your container filesystem, Steam library, configurations, and game save files remain untouched and intact.
Can I install large PC titles onto an external MicroSD card?
Yes. Mount your external TF card path in DroidDeck storage settings, and register it as an additional Steam library folder. We recommend high-speed cards certified for A2 / V30 ratings.
What should I do if Steam downloads or runtime updates are slow?
Download bottlenecks typically stem from local routing to Valve update servers. Switch your Wi-Fi network to 5GHz, adjust DNS settings, or use an accelerated network connection.
Is logging into Steam on DroidDeck safe? Is there a ban risk?
Yes, it is secure. Authentication runs through Valve's official Steam client window with direct connections to Steam servers. Single-player games carry zero risk of account penalties.
